[Q] ActiveSync via Bluetooth - autosync - S740, S743 General

Hi,
I would like to automatically synchronize with ActiveSync via Bluetooth. Do you have any tips on software that works on WM 6.1? I discovered the software "BT AutoSync", but that only works on WM 5
Thank you all for the tips ...

actually you will find it if you read the wiki and forums.
in wm6, go to the internet sharing program inside of the programs folder to start BT PAN

for WM5, the bluetooth internet sharing works differently, you will need to configure your bluetooth on your PC to add a BT modem and the dopod works like a bluetooth modem. then get the phone number to dial for internet connections from your telco. it will work exactly like a modem.
Bluetooth pan is an AKU 3 thing, so if you WM5 is aku3 you should have Bluetooth pan as a Bluetooth service.
for instance Cingular's WM5 is aku3 and can be downloaded here

DUN and BT DUN profile for Athena?

Is a well known problem since WM5 AKU 3.0, DUN disappeared (Dial Up Network, using WM as remote modem, via Activesync or BT)
Any TOM TOM Go and TOM TOM One, (not used by ATHENA users, we have our GPS) need IT to be connected with the PDA. In some cases DUN could be usefull also for Athena users, but it was removed from latest WM5 and WM6 Rom (the majority of Nokia and Sony smartphones have it)
Now someone here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1351044&postcount=21 posted the .cab to restore it on a TyTN.
Sleuth put it on his new rom, I've tested on my X7500 (HTC WM6 rom) and I am having some config problem on the USB side...
My be it could be interesting also for some ATHENA user
tried on my touch and tried to dial from my athena with *99# and didnt work..
Maybe I'm missing something, but why don't you set up a modem in Settings > Connections > Connections > Tasks > Add a new modem connection? Just need an APN, user name and password, which vary depending on your ISP (I have AT&T). Modem string and *99# no longer necessary.
If you want to use your Athena as a modem for your laptop, either through a USB or Bluetooth connection, just use Internet Sharing under Programs.
im trying to share between ppc to ppc ...
hy,
I cannot connect athena100 to tomtom go910.
I upgrades WM5 to WM6, I installes BT_DUN, tries several ways, but it doesn't work, I always got a message of DUN-connection problem;
I managed perfectly well on touch, but I have no succes with atnena100;
could you help me?
I'd say use wmwifirouter for this. It will work perfectly for internet sharing with about anything around you over usb BT or wifi
Thank you Astain, but I need a DUN-connection because TomTom does not use ICS.
Do you have a solution for that?

WM6 Bluetooth sync with WMDC Vista how?

Guys, I've waited to find a solution, it's been almost 10 months, and I wonder if I'm the only one with the problem. I can sync via USB cable, but not via Bluetooth. My setup:
Computer: Vista Ultimate 32bit running WMDC v 6.1
PPC: Dopod 181pro G3 WM6 PDAViet 4005b.
Any help appreciated. Thank you.
You must change AS config. on your PPC for BT connection
What do you mean? Under my BT in my PPC, I have ActiveSync checked. It does try to connect with WMDC, but it just never actually connects.
Has anyone gotten bluetooth sync to work under Vista and WM6? I'm starting to think there is either something missing on the WM6 PDAViet, or the Vista BT stack is missing something.
So, find the bluetooth settings in Vista. I can't help you much here since I'm using a german version.
Systemsteuerung\Hardware und Sound\Bluetooth-Geräte
(Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Bluetooth-Devices?)
Open the panel and select COM-Ports, and add a Port for an incoming connection. Don't forget to pair the devices and tell the WMDC its allowed to use Bluetooth connections.
hope it works for you
p.s. I can't get my WM5 device to connect, its an hx4700. My Hermes works fine (WM6). Any suggestions on that maybe?
Ok thanks all, I finally got it kinda working. Kinda, cause it doesn't work all the time for some strange reason. The only thing I did to finally get it to work is, after I paired the PPC and computer up, I went to the BT icon on my desktop and clicked it open, and selected the 'HTC Phophet' icon, and under the service tab, I checked off Activesync. Then it was able to connect. It took a while to connect though, and also sometimes, it would not connect. Also, the speed is really slow, for example, to browse my PPC folders takes a very long time. I wonder if it's my upgraded radio rom. I will see if rebooting or soft resetting the PC/PPC would solve anything. Thanks again.

I could use some help with this too....
Been trying unsuccessfully to sync my Athena X7501 via BT with my lil' Kohjinsha SH6/Vista Home Premium but no go...
No problems syncing with USB Cable...
I can get both to 'see each other' but nothing happens either in Sync Center/Mobile Device Center in terms of connecting or when I click 'Sync' in ActiveSync on X7501...
Any suggestions????

if you see "serial port" instead of "active sync" during getting them to 'see each other' you may check "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\SerialPort" key using regedit.
you have to change it to your bluetooth stack's incoming COM port (usually COM7). You will probably see "Bluetooth" in that key. just change it to "COM7" and restart the computer then rebind the devices.
it worked for me on my vista.

Thanks for that input, gokhanmoral!!
Will check that out....
OK, did a search in RegEdit for
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\SerialPort"
but it didn't find this....
I do see
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\" with several subfolders in it....
One folder is called 'Extended Serial' and another is 'Services'....
Can you be verify the path to the item I should edit???
Thanks!

it is not a path but it is a REG_SZ (string) key.
sorry, my mistake. I should have written SerialPort key under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services.
see the attached image.
it was "Bluetooth" before I change it.
I had no option to select COM7 in WMDC because it is marked as "used" in another registry but changing it and reinstalling the bluetooth stack is a harder way to fix. so just change it to whichever port your stack is using for incoming serial. you must have an option to check it in control panel.

Thanks for the clarification...edited that key....
Weird thing is that my X7501 and laptop can 'see each other' but still doesn't sync....when I click on 'sync' in ActiveSync on X7501 nothing happens and on laptop Mobile Device Center says 'Not Connected' and Sync Center shows the partnership with my X7501 as 'grayed out' looking.....
Not sure what you mean by 'you must have an option to check it in control panel...
Any suggestions as to what to check now???
Why Don't I See 'ActiveSync' Listed in BT Services List?
Seems that the problem I'm having getting my 7501 to sync to a PC via BT has to do with no having ActiveSync show up in the list of available services in BT partnership settings.
I just see Serial Port listed, not ActiveSync.
Could it be that I need to install ActiveSync again?
I'm using Vista on PC so I thought it uses Mobile Device Center and Sync Center which comes built-in to Vista. So didn't install ActiveSync myself...
Does ActiveSync install anything onto a mobile device like the X7501?
Thanks,
Mark
Frustrated X7501 BT Sync'r.....
GOT BT Sync Finally!
Just thought this might help someone else down the road to know what the problem turned out to be on why I couldn't BT Sync my X7501 and my laptop....
I called HTC this morning. They were actually extremely helpful!
Turns out that my laptop was using BlueSoleil BT software instead of MS BT Stack...deleted BlueSoleil and restarted and voila! MS BT Stack installed and then I could see ActiveSync service on my X7501!!!!
Who would of thought about that.....
Still troubled with bluetooth sync via WMDC/Active Sync

I have the same problem. Seems to be a fairly common one. My WM6 PPC (with Active Sync) will not sync via bluetooth to my Vista Ultimate "powered" machine with WMDC. No trouble syncing via USB. Also no trouble with bluetooth pairing of the PPC and my machine or sending files (directly) from one to the other via bluetooth. Just no syncing of Calender, Tasks, etc. over bluetooth. Kind of infuriating.
Also possibly worth noting---I had no trouble syncing same PPC to my old XP powered machine with Active Sync. Why did Microsoft insist on "improving" on something (Active Sync) that worked just fine and was straightforward to use? Vista and WMDC in particular are steps backward in my view.
Pointless griping aside, the symptoms suggest that bluetooth stacks are working, that active sync and WMDC are talking (over USB), just no syncing, suggesting something is inconsistent in the way the ports are set up, just as others have implied in this thread.
Incidentally I tried everything listed in this thread, including the Regedit modification (all of this made a lot of sense given the problem) and still get no response when I try to sync over bluetooth.
On my ppc the only options for com ports are COM2, COM4, COM6 and COM8. Does this matter?
Help!? Please.
Thanks in advance for any input.
Well, as for myself, it tured out that my problem had something to do with the pocket pc ROM I installed, as posted in the first thread. It would sync a few times at first, then never again. So, all this time (years) I've just done it with USB wire.
Now I just got done upgrading my Prophet to Ultimate v 2 ROM. And my BT active Sync is now working like normal. I knew from the description of the first paragraph there was something wrong with my flash of the new ROM or the ROM itself. Anyway, now it's working like normal. It's now time to go fix my headphone jack that is stuck in headphone mode lol. I need a new PPC!

Bluetooth communication problem

I am really getting frustrated over here!

You should enable the Option "Receive all incoming beams."
You can find it here: Settings->Connections->Beam

i did that!..
is there some kind of software i should use!
can anyone guide me on how to do it step by step plz
Receive all incoming beams has absolutely nothing to do with bluetooth! please don't miss lead others if you are not sure. well turn on your bluetooth, click on a file you want to send then click on "beam file" then wait for your phone to find the other device. also the way it works on my laptop is that at the same time i have to click on the bluetooth icon on my laptop and set it to wait for receiving a file, then on my phone I can see my laptop's name under the "Infrared" then all i have to do is to click on send. If this procedure didn't work on your rom and if you are using wm6 , well some of the wm6 roms in here have problem with bluetooth, wait for the one coming out in less than two days (touch V7/Crystal V1) they don't have any problem with bluetooth.
I am sure, that Beam is related to IR and also to Bluetooth
On my xda neo with Gullum V6 it only worked after enabling this option.
Look at the Orbit-manual and you will see, that it is so!
"To receive a Bluetooth beam
Your device will not detect and notify you of incoming Bluetooth beams
unless you set it up to do this.
1. Tap Start > Settings > Connections tab > Beam.
2. Select the Receive all incoming beams check box.
3. Make sure your device is turned on, visible, and within close range of
the device that is beaming the information.
4. When prompted to receive an incoming beam, tap Yes to receive the
beamed information."

Why not using the integrated Bluetooth drivers in XP SP2 or Vista?
For me it works without additional software!
Good luck!

OK. I have also Bluetooth dongle and there was a cd with some software. I didn't install this sowfware, because XP Pro SP2 and Vista Business could find the right drivers...and everything works fine with the integrated in Windows Bluetooth Wizard. It depends on your Bluetooth dongle maybe...
I also think that the problem is in the additional software that you have installed...

just downloaded and installed the toshiba software for the bluetooth and it works gr8
the only downside is that it is an evaluation for a period of 30 days
so i have 30 days to find its crack or a better one..
but FINALLY i can send and receive via bluetooth
thanx All
I heard before that Blue Soleil didn't work with Vista, but the MS drivers should though.... Obvious your experience differs. Perhaps something to do with the radio.

WM6 by vlodeck and Vista Mobile Device Center

Hi,
i flashed WM 6 by vlodeck a fewk weeks ago and i am really happy with. But since a week i am using windows vista on my laptop and the mobile device center 6.1 for synchronisation. But it does not work! If i connect my charmer with the mini usb cable, mobile device center starts and show me an error. That was it. Have anyone else the same problem? Can i fix this problem?
Regards Hans
Sorry it works perfectly! It was my fault!
Please delete this post, thx!
Hi, what did you do to make it work, I also have the problem that i can't synch my charmer with Vista.
Try to turn off extended network features, which are available in menu Start - Programs - Connections - USB to PC and there try to uncheck the box.
You must deactive your firewall!!!
