N95 + TomTom + Internal GPS

I was reading the previous threads regarding the internal GPS and how it cannot be used with TomTom until a patch is released. Now that we are over a year on, did anybody manage to use the internal GPS with their TomTom? ... Was a patch ever made to solve this issue?

Many Thanks in advance for your reply.

    My DH has the N95 & I'm buying him a new TomTom, the GO 540 (when its released;) ), I didn't know there were issues between them???:confused:
  • Sorry, I didnt make myself clear, I was talking about TOMTOM Mobile on the N95, not an external Tom Tom.

    Yep there is an unofficial TomTom patch, it's basically a Java file which creates a virtual bluetooth receiver and connects it back to the device.

    I have it working on my N95 8GB.
  • Hello,

    I am looking for this file for the N95.
    Can you point me in the right direction.
    Thanks
