THis phone does not seem to be capable of making a wireless data connection. TomTom Serviced cannot be used with this phone. |

I thought they were going to allow tethering with v3 release (as long as the carrier also offered it). Isn't that where the problem lies? _________________ Garmin 1695 / 255 / 760 w/MSN - Droid w/Google nav + Navigon - Navigon 8100T - Dakota10 - GPSMap76C - GeoMate Jr. |

The TomTom needs DUN profile support, it looks like iPhone is only getting PAN which won't work unless TomTom change the Navcore - Mike |

AAHHH! Thanks for that Mike. First mention I've seen of DUN support as another problem. _________________ Garmin 1695 / 255 / 760 w/MSN - Droid w/Google nav + Navigon - Navigon 8100T - Dakota10 - GPSMap76C - GeoMate Jr. |

If you use WM PPC style phones this has been an issue for a while since Microsoft dropped the DUN profile, fortunately someone developed a CAB file installer to add the DUN profile to the HTC devices but without this profile on the phone the TomTom refuses to use the data connection, I guess without DUN support on the iPhone the same will apply i.e. it won't work and adding core software to the iPhone isn't as easy as the PPC units - Mike |

Many thanks MaFt and Mike for the informative reply.
Shame..... I'm stuck carrying three phones around (work, iPhone, Nokia on 3 for TT Traffic connection) _________________ iPhone 6 - TomTom WE- CamerAlert - Brodit Passive Adjustable mount.

This has seriously ******** me off. I got the new iphone delivered yesterday and couldnt work out why I cant get it to connect to the Tomtom for the traffic. My previous 2 phones, a samsung and a Nokia both worked. Guess i will have to get the 740 live now so I can resume using the traffic. I have to say that I have found the traffic fantastically useful and generally got a good signal, unlike when I had an aerial draped around the screen. |
