Alternate for use TomTom into carputer... - Page 2

Destinator, Navigon, & I beleive tomtom alledgedly disabled the ability to run TomTom on a 7" at native resolution because of some bull**** license infringment with OEM Satnav suppliers, and to stop the Likes of CarPC's taking a market share off the PNA devices. Don't know how true that is though

This message I received some times and I solved it, with this:

HTCTyTN2-Scr=7,75,247,395

The window screen size of the skin need the exact size of 240*320 (or 320*240) depending of the orientation of your skin... revise this, one pixel more and you receive this message. (7 to 247=240px and 75 to 395=320px)

If not is this, revise the size and position of yours buttons at the skin. The size of the screen not is controlled for the soft, not is important for it.

If you continue with problems, send me your .bmp and the skins.ini and I try to solve.

First notice... never have experimented any problem with this... and I use all 3 in my CarPC, (Navigon NCK5 - looks friendly, Destinator 5PN Last maps versions and "radar" points, and TomTom 6 treated on this post...)

No... I meant the software they run on the PNA devices, not the PC/Laptop software versions

is there anyway of getting sound through from the PDA to the PC via active sync / SOTI?

i can bearly hear TOMTOM when the PDA is in the glove box

I guess it would be possible to plug the headphones from the PDA i to the microphone socket of the PC nut it just more cables to run round the car

joliverf · 07-13-2007, 08:24 AM

Yes, with one Bluetooth socket...

I not say if its possible send audio by the Activesync connection.

Sorry, my english is very basic.

rewindnottm · 07-13-2007, 09:04 AM

i think i understand what we are saying.

i can use bluetooth to send audio, i guess i can also use this for the PDA too or is that too much to the bluetooth connection?

do i need additional software?

how do i use bluetooth to run the audio?

When you pair the device, active the "audio gateway" at two elements (pc and PDA) ist easy.

With this, you derive all sounds trought the bt to the pc.

got the active sync running through the bluetooth (which is really really slow)

i cannot find the audio gateway on the activesync menu or or on the bluetooth menus

where is it?

i may also do back to docking the PDA through the USB.

i have more questions but i think this is enough for me right now.

At your device services, and not all have thats services....

What are your PDA?
And your BT socket?

joliverf · 07-19-2007, 08:43 AM

Your PDA have possibilitis of install a BT Headset? if this is possible, your PDA have capabilities for send audio trought BT, at the last moment, consider connect the audio out jack of the BT headset to the audio input of the system... its another possibility..

Sorry, mi english is very basic....

I am being really dense here, but is this the PC functions being displayed on the PDA, or the PDA's functions working on a PC? or something else althogeher?
