Connecting a non-tomtom gps to tomtom 6

1. You need to pair your bluetooth GPS to your TYTn

2. you need to connect it to a com-port (take a high port like 9)

3. start tomtom and set a non-tomtom bluetooth gps at com 9

thats it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ump001:
hmmm, i've tried the above too on com9 but no change. The gps device does work as it worked with TT5.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] sergiopi:
My be the GPS device is faulty... test with another app, test with windows mobile live search maps, is freeware http://wls.live.com/
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Time has come:
My COM Settings

As a novice, I went through a lot of trial and error before getting my GPS to work.

My COM Ports settings now work fine:

BT GPS (COM9)

Incoming Port (COM2)

Have you set an incoming as well as an outgoing port? Maybe a silly question.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jay05:
beam

try turning off beam receive all incoming beams this makes it work on xda1 this might help
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] sambartle:
You shouldn't need an incoming port.. only outgoing.. (at least on the 10 or so BT GPS unit's ive tried none have needed it)

==========

(Also note on the hermes you cant use COM8 reliably as it messes with the USB Modem options as they seem to use COM8 internally so stay clear of that one)

VisualGPSce doesnt seem to work properly on my hermes.. I use free.mytracking.net's client to test gps easily.. just set the right com port and hit start.. ignore the user/pass bit as thats not important.. if you have a good signal you will get a green bar and number of satellites if communications are working and a red bar and 0 satellites if they are not.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] p800:
Make sure you do not have the "secure connection" box ticked in port settings, otherwise you will not connect.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] char05:
Tytn has an interesting feature: To pick up a satellite signal with TomTom 6 the radio of the Tytn must be switched ON. If the radio is switched off no signal is beeing received from the bluethooth device.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] sag:
Thanks

Configured lots of tomtom and GPS. Paired, outgoing, no secure, etc. I Know how.

Flashed to WM6 and spent all the afternoon till I read this thread.

Almost fool!

Thanks a lot, man!!

""As my Dev brothers said earlier, "BOND comes with bang". So giving respect to all of my dev brothers and starting this new thread.""

Lets first start with the very known thing of MTK devices. So these things are common in all MTK:-

1)

[URL="http://www.mediafire.com/download/kmt3bjcga3pyymf/SP_Flash_Tool_exe_v3.1344.0.212.rar"]SP Flash Tool (For flashing any MTK Device)[/URL]

2)

[URL="http://www.mediafire.com/download/3q679a2jelhcumc/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94.zip"]Super-User Update (Rooting zip, flashable in custom recovery)[/URL]

3)

MTK Preloader USB VCom Driver (Search on google, there are many)

Brothers,

1) is basically used by us for flashing custom recovery, boot, or factory firmware, if anything goes wrong.

2) is used for rooting a ROM, may its Kitkat or Jellybean.

3) is used for flashing through sp flash tool

PRE-Requisite:-

1) Normal Human Brain. [Must, Don't even try without it]:cowboy::cowboy:

2) Patience [Again a must have thing.]:cowboy::cowboy:

3) MTK Preloader USB VCom driver installed on your PC.:good:

4) Recovery Utility for Canvas Fire 2 A104 [Download this]:good:

5) Stock Firmware of Canvas Fire 2 A104 [Download this as a precaution]:good:

6) Heart & Money. {If everything goes wrong and nothing works, then heart to bear the blame and money to buy a new phone.:p:p

Now Procedure for rooting MT6582M based Micromax Canvas Fire 2 A104:-

a) Download SP Flash tool and also download the recovery utility.

b) Extract both somewhere on your pc but not out side "C/" drive.

c) Open Flash tool and click on scatter loading.

d) Select scatter loading "MT6582_Android_scatter" from recovery utility folder.

e) Now De-select everything other than recovery and boot in the flashtool.

f) Make sure only recovery & boot is selected in flashtool then click Download button.

g) Now connect your fire 2 (without battery) to your pc.

h) Let the process complete. After this disconnect your phone and press Volume up(+) and Power Button for

booting in to recovery.

i) In recovery choose zip "Update SuperUser zip" and flash it and voila.

You have got root and one of the best custom recovery "Phillz Touch based recovery" on your fire 2. Now start firing and enjoy.

Screenshot Given for reference of "Phillz Recovery".

Disclaimer:-

If anything goes wrong, and nothing is there left to make your phone come back, then neither me nor XDA nor my dev brothers are responsible for this. You are the person who have chosen to do this to your device and so you're the responsible person for this. So please do responsibly and enjoy boldly.

First thing first that please don't quote the whole OP, its very long and consume much space. Now brother I don't know that its working for A093 or not as I don't have the device and now I have also sold the A104. Try it but before trying download the whole stock firmware of A093, so that if it fails you can get back to its original position.

Regards

Hi man,

I did the whole procedure properly and the top half of my phone screen is inverted.. Not the display, but the touch only.. I must touch the center of the screen to pull down the status bar.. (Know what I mean?) I can't seem to fix the issue.. I tried flashing stock recovery.img, didn't work. Tried stock rom, didn't work. Did a full wipe too.. I'm not blaming you, I just need your help.. Any idea why that happened or how to fix it?
[Micromax Canvas Fire 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] EnDLessssS:
I got the same issue. Looks like the provided boot.img wasnt meant for the device we have. I am also trying to fix this. Will update if it gets fixed.

---------- Post added at 08:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:02 PM ----------

Hey, Just in case you are still having that issue. I figured out the cause. Its because of the boot.img we flashed. The new hardware components used in our phones are not compatible with the old boot.img we flashed, which is supposed to be of earlier Firmware version. Please download the package below and flash it.

http://clicknupload.com/xdpt8n2w3oho

I assume that you must had already flashed the complete old firmware, you need to flash this new firmware. I havnt flashed old FW so just flashed the new boot.img of this package and the problem is solved.

This is a request to the thread owner to please mention this in OP that the users with V8.1 (can be checked in Settings >> About Phone >> Build Number) should uncheck boot while flashing, however it will cause same inverted touch issue in recovery but it can be managed with the volume buttons anyways.
[Micromax Canvas Fire 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperDroid-BOND:
Brothers,

When I bought this device then I downloaded it and made the rooting n recovery guide after testing it for three times on my device. If later the oem has changed anything in firmware then I'm sorry but I cannot update it as now I don't have this device anymore. If you want recovery for this device then please uploaded your boot.img from latest firmware and I'll make a recovery for you but after 7 days from now. currently busy in funeral of my Grandma.

Thanks & Regards

Getting huge battery drain. Dropped like 80 percent overnight. Any suggestions?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] itachilinux:
try this :

- Change Governor to : Smartassv2+row or Ondemand+sio

- Greenify some unused app

- Change mobile network state to 2G if you still need a mobile data network connection but doesn't use a huge usage

- Turn off some unused ROM features

Any suggestions, just suggest it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Beverke:
For me is was just the opposite, overnight 80% remained-this is certainly not bad.

Consumed 30% battery over 6 hours light use (mainly mails) today - with battery tweaks enabled in init.d tweaks.

But you cannot judge battery life from te first day - we'll see after a couple of days.

I'll keep you informed!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sjf9:
From today it's my personal candidate for being excellent KK based ROM for sola. How did you achieved such a fast-acting ROM for sola? In my personal feeling it runs faster than other KK based ROMs. It's really good.

Unfortunately I've found some problems - could someone confirm that they're really bugs or I'm only one experiencing that problems?

1) Digits on the PIN pad on screen after phone reboot (or first start after installation) are cutted off at the bottom. It's still possible to insert PIN but it looks weird.

2) Screen lock doesn't work. Neither after x seconds of inactivity (Display -> Sleep) nor after pressing power button (Security -> Power button instantly locks -> ticked Screen goes black but screen lock (e.g. pattern) isn't activated.

3) It seems to me that portable WiFi hotspot doesn't work. I tried with the same settings that I was using on other ROMs and I couldn't acquire an IP address.

4) Long pressing Home button doesn't cause bringing up Recent apps.

5) Display Brigthness causes FC but it's possible to control screen brightness by sliding across status bar (Dirty Tweaks -> Misc. Tweaks -> Brightness control).

6) When notification area is opened it isn't possible to switch to Quick settings icons with the most right icon. However swiping on the screen from left to right still switches between notification area and quick settings back.

7) Dirty Tweaks -> Build.prop Mods -> Disable boot animation causes FC but changes switch state and works after that :)

Regardless of that problems I'm using this ROM for now and testing its battery life.

Thx for your work and keep on good working :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] geralD_carl:
I'll fix it soon provide a logcat for hotspot
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Beverke:
From my experiences:

- this rom is very smooth and fast indeed. It is also the KK-rom that runs best big apps (waze, candy, facebook,...) - but of course still with limitations.

Problem 1: I don't have cut off digits with this rom - in another rom I could solve it by changing the pixel density

Problem 2: Screen lock works perfectly for me, in all situations

Problem 3: I do not use portable Wifi, but could connect without troubles

Problem 4: It does, long pressing the home button brings up the recent apps

Problem 5: Display brightness causes FC indeed

Problem 6: I can go to quick settings using the icon

Problem 7: It happens exactly as you describe it

Testing battery live too. Feeling after one day: ,I've had worse - but it isn't the best either.

I used this on the RepeXperiS ROM, with very good result. Could we use it here too? On SlimKat is was a disaster.

I'll try it if I find the time to do so.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sjf9:
I've found another problem and I think it could be related with not working screen lock. Look in Dirty Tweaks -> System -> Suspend Actions -> Enable and tick both of 'Switch to 2G', 'Disable Mobile Data'. After screen goes black suspended actions work correctly. But after screen is back on the previous state isn't restored.

I'm attaching the logcat. I hope it'll be useful. If it won't please let me know - I'll try again.

And I'd almost forgot report that standard browser disappears just after start. iOS Browser (https://www.dropbox.com/s/191lh59t30lvckr/iOS 7 Browser.apk) works properly.

Edit: I'm sorry standard browser also works after renewed ROM flashing and installing another version of gapps. Maybe previous version of gapps I installed was corrupted? I don't know.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sjf9:
Thanks to [MENTION=5453306]Beverke[/MENTION] I tried flasing my phone again. And this time almost all works perfectly. So after new installation I'm confirming only following problems:

1) Digits on the PIN pad are still cutted off at the bottom. I tried changing the pixel density as [MENTION=5453306]Beverke[/MENTION] suggested but with no improvement to digits. See the screenshot in attachment.

2) Screen lock doesn't work. Neither after x seconds of inactivity (Display -> Sleep) nor after pressing power button (Security -> Power button instantly locks -> ticked Screen goes black but screen lock (e.g. pattern) isn't activated.

OK, now it works as it should.

3) It seems to me that portable WiFi hotspot doesn't work. I tried with the same settings that I was using on other ROMs and I couldn't acquire an IP address. After new clean installation it still doesn't work.

4) Long pressing Home button doesn't cause bringing up Recent apps. It's OK

5) Display Brigthness causes FC but it's possible to control screen brightness by sliding across status bar (Dirty Tweaks -> Misc. Tweaks -> Brightness control).

6) When notification area is opened it isn't possible to switch to Quick settings icons with the most right icon. However swiping on the screen from left to right still switches between notification area and quick settings back. OK

7) Dirty Tweaks -> Build.prop Mods -> Disable boot animation causes FC but changes switch state and works after that
