It shows "unable to connect external device" .
I tried another app call Bluetooth GPS, at first, the app had same problem. after I check "Use Insecure Connection" in setting, it works fine. but I couldn't find any setting like this in Oruxmap. Now I downgrade Oruxmap version to 4.6.3. and it working normal with my external BT GPS device.
Sorry for my poor english.

Hi;

Ok, I removed an option with bluetooth devices because of problems with other devices.

But you can use your external gps with OruxMaps, using Bluetooth gps provider application, if you enable mock provider. -->https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mobilej.btgps
