Anyone know if Hero will work with Garmin bluetooth? - Hero CDMA Accessories

I'm looking at a Garmin nuvi 1490t with bluetooth, they also have a 1450 which is the same without BT and less money. Hero is not listed as a compatible phone on the Garmin site but have read reviews that some non listed phones work. Would like the 1490t if it works with my Hero?
So anyone know if it will work?
Thanks

I have a 1690 and it does work. No address book import.

I use the Garmin Zumo 550, coz I can use it in my vehicles, boat but more importantly, on my Harley and YES, my Hero is fully compatiable and pairs flawlessly including my phone book. Quite impressive.

same here, needs some kind of carmount, ebay only supplies huge universal holders which will block usbpower supply.... Looking now for magnetic one but not sure if it will work

But, I do not recommend using a bike mount unless you are really good at biking that you will never fall or you don't mind breaking your phone.

Saw this online and was wondering if anyone here has it it yet? If so what do you think? Does the thumbsticks work? Can they be configured to work as extra keys?....... any input would be cool

It's mostly for Android, actually. The devs says "it's built like a tank" so it should be able to hold the tab (with a future add on).
The question however is good, maybe i'm not up to speed, but last time i checked the tab couldn't handle properly Wiimotes and so on.
Snes9x has already built in support.

Kinda cool, but it would make the tab enormous

Just need a kickstand case for the tab and use it as a portable home console...get it without the bumpers..... wireless controllers B)

A pretty cool idea. This would have to be used without trying to clamp in the tab though. As already stated, it would make the tab HUGE
Really itching to buy this....... waiting for cm7 to be fully operational on my Epic4G before I make the buy..... when I do I will be doing some extensive testing on my SGT :-D

just got mine. I haven't tested the keyboard mode yet, I'm writing code to talk to it in SPP mode. It works extremely well and is much better than the BGP100 (less lag, better build quality), and better than the Zeemote (better bt compatibility, better ergonomics). The price is the only downside

LOL Thank you for making me a laugh.
probably cause you're name is too common.
if you call it matt's-PC there can be more matt's.
maybe you can try to choose a more unique name
THIS is exactly why I use VNC. Scary.
Lol that's crazy. Never heard of anything like that before.

FM radio
He said these were from his X, no instructions or anything and I haven't tried it.
I did notice an app called fm something in the bionic but its not in the app drawer.....
Are these safe to download?

Wow! All I needed was the second file (MotoFMRadio.apk). Installed it and it works great! The first file couldn't be installed, presumably because it's a system file and already on the phone.
Thank you, thank you!

You just downloaded and installed APK like any other app and it worked fine?
You just installed the MotoFM apk right?
I have the Droid 2 Global and tried to install the FM radio app. Installed fine but when I load the app, have headphone in, it just searches saying something like "loading FM stations" and just spins.
Anything I'm missing?

Is there anyway for this to work thru bluetooth? Anyway to record into MP3?
Thanks a lot I'm listening to my favorite radio station on my Droid Bionic now! Pretty cool!
sweet...awesome find!
Not that I see, ask for headphones before it even let's you in to program. Maybe there's an app that can fake it

Considering it uses the headphone cord as an antenna, I'm thinking no bluetooth, and the recording is pretty unlikely, too.
I wonder what headphone will give good reception. The white apple earplug sucks as reception. In Orange County and can barely get any station without some major static. Like 102.7..so much static.
This is pretty awesome. I come from an OG Droid and it didn't have the FM option.
What I always thought would be cool would be if we could turn out phones into FM transmitters so we can play music from our phones in our cars. The iPod's have those adapters that can do this, but since we are Android users and not Apple, how sweet would it be if the phone could be the transmitter! I know, another piece of hardware to integrate... But if it can receive FM now, it might be able to transmit?

Nope, a receiver is not a transmitter. What you would need is a transceiver.

Oh Fun :)

Look what my phone has gone and done...

If you want to know more about it...look up Ubuntu Touch. It actually runs much like Ubuntu, only this booted in like 15 seconds first boot haha
Nice i was wondering when you were gonna get your feet wet
That looks beautiful. I tried a while back before they flipped the image and couldn't get it to boot.
Omg I miss your work! I haven't seen you since the photon days. I wish you would get a G2 so we can benefit from your wonderful work

This is legit.

When I went out to get device back in Nov, I was between this and the G2. I chose this after the Optimus G's inherent fun....not to mention that device was released 3 months before this one, yet is still on 4.1.2. This device is being updated at rocket ship speed, which is a HUGE change from what we all experienced on the Photon...LOL

Well, it may be some time. I have it booting, touch works well, navigation is great. Looks like a great DD...once all working. However, as with all new forays, there are some bugs...some easier than others to squash.
1) Camera preview works, seems to take a picture, but hell if I can figure out where it went...LOL
2) Networking is NG
3) Cellular is NG
4) Audio is NG (this could be a big one, as if you look at the way it needs to be configured, it requires writing of a UCM mixer config for the deviec...LOL
But, I'm going to keep working

Yea the photon turned into a joke sadly. But the good thing about the Optimus G and G2.. They may be behind on updates but both are updated by great devs with the latest version as quick as any other device with all features working nearly 100%. The G2 already has 4.4 internationally and it also helps that the N5 is pretty much the same hardware kind of like the atrix and photon.

Well, before I could do any sort of collaboration, I have to get the source I've got building upped. It's really screwey how they have this thing set up....took 3 different tries to get the right files to actually repo sync. Their instructions seem quite incomplete in some areas, and are totally GONE in others (like the links to getting VoiceCall and HiFi audio working...links are page not found).
Once I get it synced remotely, I'll be more than happy to have some others pitch in. I have a feeling it's going to take a few of us to do it any way.
But for now...if anyone knows how to write UCM mixer files for alsa, I'd love to have some pointers. Their explanation is nearly NIL...LOL
Seeing this put a really big smile on my face
@Th3Bill
Sounds good looking forward to this rom good work.

For now, I'm going to keep it here until I get it working a bit more...once I get it fixed a little more and sync my source, I'll be moving to Development....just wanted to put it up that there's something new cooking
