I don't now or this is the right place to ask this question so I will crosspost it aswell in the software section.
Is it possible to conect the Diamond with a laptop and use the GPS receiver as a external GPS mouse, and if so is this possible by USB or/and bluetooth
Thanks in advanced

Take a look at Franson GPSGate, it lets you share the GPS data through activesync, using bluetooth or cable.

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

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.

Franson GPS GATE makes it easy & works great, really fast.
Hi.
I'd like to use my Diamond as an external gps receiver, using it with my notebook. Is it possible to do so? Should I use a usb connection or bluetooth?

Have a look at Franson GPS Gate. This way, you can direct com4 to Activesync, and the PC-component of GPS Gate will put the input from AS to a virtual comport on the Notebook.
Have fun!
TNX, I'll give it a try.
Shoult I install it on my pc or diamond? Or both?
GPS2Blue seems to be the easy way...
TNX again.
Should I get the same gps lag I have using TomTom on Diamond if I use the phone as external gps receiver?
Up.
Any news?
Try it and you'll find out... I've tested GPS2blue, but don't remember if there was lag.

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.
Hello!
I want to ask if it is possible to use the X1 as a GPS Mouse for a Netbook via bluetooth.
I had the idea to run a Navigation Software on my Netbook and I don´t want to buy an extra external GPS Mouse and so I wondered if that would be possible?
best regards

Im not sure what you mean with "gps mouse", but you can use GPSGate to transfer gps signal over bluetooth or even via usb(activesync).
Sorry maybe my english isn´t always the best.
But I think that is something what I´m looking for.
I want to use the GPS Signal from the X1 for a Navigation Software on
my Netbook.
Looks like GPSGate can do this for me.
Thank´s a lot.
Simply put, you just want Xperia to act as a GPS receiver for your netbook, no?
Yes, I simply want to use the X1 as a GPS Receiver for my Netbook.
get the gps2blue program on the x1 and it does
and it's free
