    I run under their authority and yes they do pay for all of it, only thing I had to pay for was fuel to get to their shop to have it installed

    Did you just refer Qualcomm as quality? Don't make me come over there! :mad:
    just try and call them for support and you will see it's just another dog and pony show.

    Mine has been ####ing up the last three days. Triggers three missing data events every time I start the truck after it’s been off for a while.

    1. Vehicle in motion (never moved)
    2. Latitude
    3. Longitude

    The bug where it steals one of the truck speakers comes to mind. You can switch to the internal QC speaker but yet another bug switches it back at random. That bug has been around for 7 years that I know of. Totally Unconscionable.

    While Omnitracs has better features than the typical setup they are stupid slow to fix things. Alot of the more recent ELD software are having trouble even logging correctly. Just do as little as possible to make money. GPS systems are the same way. :/

    Yep, QuallCom is the Gold Standard.

    I suspect a shakeout of all the “use your phone” vendors over the next few years.

    Is the BT not working, or is there another BT device in the truck that is interfering? I run into this all the time with all of my BT crap, in the truck and at the house. I have to turn all BT off, then turn on the one I want to use. BT is still not ready for prime time. Just a thought.

    The bluetooth device was named improperly or forgot its name and had to be renamed, tech support said it may be a reoccurring thing... forgetting it's name. Eld Alzheimer's
