    Does anyone know why certain phone only support voice and not wirless data services? I mean I have a Samsung Blackjack, supposedly running the latest version of Bluetooth (2.0) and it only supports voice. Why would that be the case??

    Jimmy,

    Some phones, like the Blackjack, do not have the ability to process
    external data requests. So while it does have excellent connectivity
    for handsfree calling, these phones don’t transfer to a secondary device
    like a TomTom.

    I am hoping that someone can please tell me how to manually set up the tomtom rider so that I can have my nextel i580 work with the tomtom rider. It currently links with the blue tooth for the phone calls incoming but I can’t figure out how to get it to show the address book or to get the current weather information.

    Hope someone out there can help me.

    Thanks,

    Randy

    Randy,

    Unfortunately Nextel is not a compatible provider.

    While your phone might still pair with the TomTom and operate some
    features, others might not work (i.e. phonebook transfer, traffic,
    etc…)

    For a full compatibility list for TomTom RIDER, please visit:

    What PDA/Smartphone would you suggest? There does not appear to be any current devices available that are compatible? I have a Samsung Blackjack and I’m unable to get the data link to work. Hands free is great, but I’m missing the critical traffic piece.

    I have the new 720 and there is no real help for that yet, that I’ve found. I like the device, but I’m almost ready to return it. Are the FM traffic adapters available yet?

    The list of TomTom GO 720 compatible Bluetooth mobile phones can be found on TomTom.com here: http://www.tomtom.com/products/features.php?ID=383%26Category=0%26Lid=4

    Unfortunately, the RDS-TMC traffic antenna is coming, but not yet available in the United States.

    How can i get hands free calling to work on my tomtom one xl. I have a nokia 6230 but have tried many phones. Thanks

  13. Administrator said,

    August 24, 2007 @ 9:38 am

    Bluetooth connectivity on the TomTom ONE XL is for access to TomTom PLUS Services. It does not support handsfree calling. However, handsfree calling is available on the TomTom GO 510, 910 and 720.

    How do i setup my ( tomtom one ) as a mobile phone hands free kit for my car. I have a nokia 6230i. Thanks

    P.S.

    I have BLUETOOTH which is FREE to use so why does it look for GPRS, to connect to my tomtom one. Does’nt GPRS have a charge rate.

    Can someone please give me a full guide to setting up my tomtom one so i can use it with my phone as a hands free kit aswell as a sat nav. Thanks in advance (”,)

    Is verizon compatible? Does verizon do gprs? Is the starcomm xv6700 compatible? (If the phone is not supported, which one of your supported phones uses windows mobile 6.0 as a set up example?)

  16. Administrator said,

    September 10, 2007 @ 2:30 pm

    Sorry Paul. The TomTom ONE line – including ONE XL and ONE 3rd edition – do not have handsfree calling capabilities. That’s a feature of the GO line of products.

    The Bluetooth connectivity in ONE is for access to TomTom PLUS Services including Traffic and Weather which require access to the GPRS network.

    Is there a way, or will there be a way soon, of bluetooth connecting my tomtom GO 720 to my Blackberry Pearl? I only really want it for hands free phone use.

    Gary, it depends on a number of factors including your service provider. You can always check the most up-to-date compatibility list on the GO 720’s product page at TomTom.com.

    How can I use the Plus services on my TomTom One with my PDA Phone. I have a Treo 700wx.

  21. Administrator said,

    October 10, 2007 @ 11:40 am

    Unfortunately Treos are not officially supported for use with the ONE by TomTom.

  22. Liz said,

    Are any of your systems compatible with the new Motorola ic902(Sprint/Nextel hybrid). Any systems compatible with the Sprint Treo?

    We are testing new phones all the time. Your best bet for our must

    calling or access to TomTom PLUS Services) is to visit the individual

    I have a nextel Motorola i870 (which is compatible). It connects but it asks me for an ip and a whole bunch of other stuff that I cant find any specific instructions on. Do you know where I can look to get it connected fully? Or can you help me?

    Thankx in advance!

    Has anyone been successful in setting up the Motorola Razr2 V9 (AT&T version) with Tom Tom 920T to run the Tom Tom Plus service via the internet? Thanks.

  33. Administrator said,

    January 17, 2008 @ 12:46 pm

    The ONE XL is Bluetooth enabled for access to TomTom PLUS Services like Traffic and Weather. It is not, however, configured for handsfree calling.

    Anyone know (or tested) the compatibility with the TomTom GO 720 and Blackberry Curve 8310 (Cingular)
    Thanks for any feedback

  35. Tim said,

    April 16, 2008 @ 9:38 am

    Adam, I’m in the slow process of building up a list of user-submitted Bluetooth Compatibility results. I don’t have anything for the 720/8310 yet, but there are reports for the 720/8300, 910/8830, and 920/8320.

    You can view the list here:

    For a tomtom 920 w/v 8.010:

    Maybe of some (little use). I have a Motorola V365 w/Cingular (ATT). It pairs fine, phone book transfers and it will receive and read text messages. It will not respond to, or create, new text messages. Also, I have to use the phone’s end button to end a call.

    PLUS services (I’ve only tried Weather) are iffy. I’m using a manual setup w/username WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM and password CINGULAR1. The GPRS APN is wap.cingular.

    The usual result: the 920 breaks the bluetooth link after the weather location is chosen. I have managed to get weather a couple of times - it’s neat when I can get it to work.
