I have a T-Mobile PW10B1 and a Rikaline GPS that I use on my laptop thru the USB port, is there a way to connect the PDA to the GPS, who sells that cable. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

How can I use my phone's GPS with a program like Streets and Trips or Street Atlas?
I often use my laptop while on the road (the wife drives) and would prefer a better option than TT6 Navigator.
you might have to get a USB gps puck for the laptop
GPS
Does that mean it can not be done? I have an interest in this also.
you need...
you need to expose your GPS to an external serial BT port. I think there is a tool called BlueGPS that does this. You can then use BT on your laptop to get the NMEA output. It makes your integrated GPS phone act like a BT GPS device for your laptop.

I use BlueGPS with my tilt over USB and it works well, except if I try to use Internet Sharing or WMWifiRouter it disconnects the com port. I haven't been able to get BlueGPS to work with Bluetooth of Wifi yet. So it only works with programs that have the maps on the computer and not ones like GooPS that get the maps from the Internet.

I downloaded the BlueGPS CAB, but cannot seem to get it to work.
Any specific instructions on how to get this BlueGPS work on the phone and have the laptop computer use the phones internal GPS receiver over bluetooth?
Attached is the BlueGPS installer CAB.
Thanks

Old thread...but after much investigation, I have discovered what you need is gps2blue, not BlueGPS!
gps2blue is free, and will do what is desired here.

Try http://franson.com/gpsgate/
This is not free, but I guess you can try the trial version. In the windows mobile client you can use activesync as output and connect your phone to your computer. gpsgate should work on your computer after some configuration, I don't have full details but you can read at the above link.
I use gpsgate on my phone but I did not try on my computer.
I actually ordered a usb GPS 'dongle' and it's about the size of a USB flash drive or a BT dongle. I originally planned on taking it apart and hardwiring it into the motherboard of my laptop, but I think i'm going to hold off on it. Might make a good alternative to using the BT on your phone for GPS though.
There is a free app called GPS2BLUE (I think) that can send GPS data to your laptop through BT. I never test it, but as I remember, this was what it was made for.
Ok I have been looking for a solutions for a long time. I want to use my shiny new Dell Mini 10 with windows 7 for turn by turn directions and i want to use my at&t tilt as the GPS receiver. So, what FREE solutions do I have? Google Earth would be sweet if it had VOICE directions.. but I know the odds of finding a free solution for that is going to be slim.
also, i keep thinking that i'll need a data connection AND a way to share the gps signal?!
bluetooth isn't an option.. at least not yet. I have to buy a BT dongle some day soon. HOPEFULLY i can find a miniscule BT USB thing so it wont stick out the side of the mini too much.
So i have 2 options for connections.. i have WIFI router on the tilt or i have to use USB. but as far as i know.. if i use usb i have to then CHOOSE between internet sharing or activesync... i need to use active sync to share the gps ports but i need internet sharing to get the data connection!!?? sooooo confused..
someone PLEASE help me
thats the situation.. to review... here are the questions i need answered.
1) what software to use on the laptop?
2) what software(s) to use on the phone?
2a) gps sharing?
2b) internet sharing?
3) how to connect the two? (usb, wifi or bt)
THANKS AHEAD OF TIME to whoever responds..
and please don't BURN me because I HAVE SEARCHED.. if you know the threads i should read then please just link me and i'll be happy to read them over..
Well, you'll need something like gps2blue
http://users.skynet.be/hofinger/GPS2Blue.html
on the tilt and Hardware Virtual Serial Port from here:
http://www.hw-group.com/products/hw_vsp/index_en.html
That will make the GPS on the Tilt look like a Serial port GPS device to the netbook.
That is the easy part. I don't think you'll find a free GPS mapping product with turn-by-turn voice commands.
Actually you will

im sitting in the car at the moment with my diamond connected via usb to my netbook so i can surf the internet, i dont have an gps other than my one on my phone and i was wondering if its possible to some how use that on windows.

GPS2Blue should do the job.
Hi All,
Long story short,
I broke my 3G modem somehow; Huawei E169, it can't find the network but will install fine and try to find it.
I want to pull the SIM out of it and use my X1 as a modem. Last night I tried but couldn't make it connect to the network. X1 is custom unlocked, SIM is Optus in Australia. I have the SP code etc but do not know where to put this in the phone?
Any help would be great thanks!
it works fine on mine.
1. your PCs bluetooth must have the Bluetooth PAN stack.
2. pair PC with X1
3. on the X1, go to Start, then Internet Sharing, then turn on Internet Sharing
4. in Windows, go to your Bluetooth devices folder, right click on X1 and connect via Access Point
5. done
if connecting via USB cable, just do Step 3. and connect USB cable to PC.
apparently the X1 supports Dial-Up Networking (DUN) as an alternative but the setup is much more complicated.
All sorted now thankyou.
I needed to set the correct access point in my phone internet settings.
Will be trying the usb cable and BT very soon. Thanks!
