BMW built-in GPS

Postby RGB » Wed Jun 10, 2009 7:40 pm

Has anyone any experience of using FoxyTag with the built-in 'Business' GPS in the current BMW 3-series (and probably 1, 5 & 7 too)? I've got a Nokia 6300 phone, which is on the 'OK' list. It's paired to the car handsfree set-up, but will it work with the built-in GPS?

I haven't tried it yet and I wondered whether anyone else had. Thanks for any advice. -- Richard

Your GPS doesn't transmit the coordinates via Bluetooth in a standard format, so you cannot use it. You need to get another external GPS.

Ah, well. Thanks anyway, even though it's bad news. RGB
