The only think I see missing on your post is making sure the "Mock GPS Provider" option is enabled on the Bluetooth GPS APP. If the Bluetooth GPS app is not running and the setting is not enabled, Google maps won't pick the GPS data.

the best way is to be near a signal when you open the map app, keep it open. then when you drive away it will work as long as you do not close the app. That's the free type. A paid for download will be better though and that will be the same with all stand alone GPS units unless you use a built in street map one. But the dual will work great!!

I bought a TomTom XXL 540TM 5 Inch Widescreen Portable GPS Navigator in 2011 and it did have this feature if I remember correctly. It quit working when I tried to do a map update so I can't double check for you but I remember using this feature.

Hmm i guess it says there is GPS in the title. How does it work?? I have this product. I also don't know how to update the information.

I'm sorry I'm not the person to ask...have not had good luck with this gps. Geo site still doesn't recognize this gps. Have not been able to use it since it was given to me as a gift (almost one year). Help line is useless. Again sorry, hope you have better luck.

Actually this unfortunately didn't work for me. However it did work by replacing the GCD file with an older version. It seems that with my Nuvi 360 the latest Bluetooth software (version 3.1) is still causing the freezing issue. I called up garmin and a representative gave me the same instructions, with old bluetooth GCD versions attached. For me only version 2.4 worked. So if you are having trouble, ring up Garmin and ask for version 2.4.

1. this product has paired with both of my android devices, running android 2.x and 4.x respectively. the bluetooth pairing is simple, but to access the GPS data within android apps, you need to set android developer options to "allow mock locations," and then run a small middleware utility on the android device. i use "Bluetooth GPS Provider" https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mobilej.btgps&hl=en but several similar utilities have all worked fine. 2. others using this setup claim it works with google maps, i haven't tried it.

Open your bluetooth and run a scan then run a secondary scan you then should be able to pair up

I do a lot of geocaching and the XGPS150 works great. The navagation program I mostly use is called copilot and it does have voice directions but I don't think that has anything to do with the XGPS150 but with the program. I have not tried it with google maps but again that would depend on if google maps supports voice directions. I am using it with 2 different iPads, a 2 and a mini and it works great on both. Not sure if this will help you or not but I hope so. PS, I am using iOS7.1

I have attempted to pair this with both my iPhone 3G running 3.1 and a Garmin Nuvi 660 at the same time and have not had any luck. Of course I may just be an idiot and not know what the hell I am doing.

It's been a while since I used the device, but as I recall I don't think you have to use bluetooth to connect to it. You might try rebooting your ipod after it's plugged into the cradle. Turning off the ipod's wifi definitely helps with gps signal acquisition. Once it gets the signal, you can turn wifi back on. Dual has an app you can download that will tell you when the cradle has picked up the gps signal, and I think the app also gives you some troubleshooting tips.

I bought mine from the Kim Komando site bit works by plugging it in to the top right gps slot. It does not display LAT/LONG or speed. It only provides this information on the app while reviewing the files along with the moving google earth map when on a PC or some other device.

Hey M. , Did you add Mapping solfware yourself ? If you did, you have to have the solfware Settings , set for the GPS unit. Mapping setting have to match. Not sure where but it should say something about downloading maps to the unit. A friend of mine didn't have the setting matching and we were off about 1/4 mile. This is not good when out hunting.

Hey, just turn the phone sideways for a full keyboard.GPS worked fine for me right out of the box (just got it today!!!). Maybe do a google search?

It won't pair through the iPhone setting for me but when I pair through the app it works perfectly. Additionally, make sure you're wetting the contacts. I use runkeeper and endomondo.
