Hi Alberto,

Case closed! I phone menu had to go to 
Menu>>Tools>>Settings>>general>>Positionning>>Positioning methods and check Bluetooth GPS

Then within gvsig when opening application an list of GPS devices show up automatically!

Thanx, 
Adorian

Hi Alberto,

Thank you for your hint. I managed to pair the BT GPS with E71. However, The gvsig location star spins for minutes and there is no response. I think it still looks for the internal GPS.

I use the same GPS on this phone with another application (gpstrak) and it works fine, but this application from beginning asks me what GPS device to use. No pairing is necessary. Is it possible to include a menu option for selecting GPS source from inside gvsig?

All the best,
Adorian

Hello Adorian,
 
you can pair your phone with an external bluetooth GPS befote to start gvSIG Mini. After launch the app, I guess the first GPS device sending a valid position should be selected.

	Hi,
	 
	I have installed gvsig on a Nokia E71 phone & I would like to use gvsig
	with an external bluetooth GPS rather than phone GPS which is very
	slow/poor. Is it possible to manually select GPS device? I did search
	through documentation and GUI but found no information.
	 
	I would appreciate very much a hint on this matter
	 
	Adorian
