1. Selected Menu (right soft key).
2. Selected Paired devices and then went to Menu.GPSCOM.exe but I still get a message, "Services not found" when I try to pair the GPS receiver with the Q. I have a Navibe GB735. I followed the steps below. What am I doing wrong? What am I missing? I managed to get it to connect once a few days ago, lost the connection and have never been able to retreive it.
3. Hit Add - Searched and found BT GPS V10.
4. Selected it and entered the passkey (0000). Hit Done.
5. Selected it and went to device Properties and Nicknamed the device Navibe Device.
6. Hit Done and went to the Menu again, and Serial Ports; the BT GPS V10 was the default device for outbound connections (Outbound COM Port: COM1:; I did NOT check the box for "Select new device for the next outgoing serial connection".
7. Turned the phone off and then on.
8. NOTE: The device never paired up.
9. Then went to BT Manager again and selected Hands-Free.
10. Went to Menu and selected Add.
11. Hit Search, then Menu again, Selected Show All Devices, Selected Navibe Device once it showed up on the list.
12. The phone checked for services and then gave me the following message, " Services Not Found."
13. I then ran the GPSCOM.EXE file and made sure it was enabled. I tried COM6 as well as COM1.
14. Turned phone off and then on again ...

And still NOTHING. Yes, the BT is on.
Any suggestions?? I'm at such a loss.
Thank you!

Hey! Side question....Thinking about trying this GPS stuff. Probably try the $40 Navabie with Live Search or GoogleMaps to get started. How much data use does it consume? More than surfing the web? 2x? 4x? GPS Noob. Thanks!
