Hey all,
I finally found how to sync with your XDA II via bluetooth, the stuff is that you should initiate the paring with your pc from the XDA (or imate) and not from the PC, not only that
go to start settings systems then click on Bluetooth settings,
then click on start under (Bluettoth ActiveSync Setup) your xda will ask you to bind to the device you want to connect to with active sync. and that's it
take care all

If I buy a bluetooth USB adapter for my PC, can I then share and transfer files between my XDA2 and my PC? If so, are there any particular specs I should look for in an adapter? Also, would this then be able to allow my XDA2 to use my PC's internet connection (ADSL)?

yes using activesync just like when you connect using the cattle / usb
if the bluetooth usb follow the std of bluetooth then it should act the same no matter which adaptor you get

Hi,
The only setting you need to do is on PC ActiveSync. Go to Options > Rules > Pass Through (at the bottom of the page) and choose The Internet.
That's it. Once your PC is connected to the Internet, you XDA with Bluetooth ActiveSync can also enjoy the Pass Through Internet.

joparp i did the same thing and it is not working!!!
Hi i have an XDA 2 and a MSI bluetooth USB adapter (the range of the adapter doesn't matter as far as i can tell because its the XDA 2's 10m range thats the limit). The XDA 2 connects through to the PC using active sync. Active sync doesn't have bluetooth support but this is ok because it can connect to serial (com ports). PC Bluetooth can create virtual com ports to connect to so just make sure that your PC active sync is set to your virtual com port. Then all you have to do is click on tools (in active sync on XDA 2) and select connect via bluetooth. Works great! free FAST internet when in range of the pc (10m open air) and if i can get it working with bluetooth, accessing the lan using Pocket Lan (if anyone knows how i'd love to know! ). hmmmm access to mp3's on pc network
I want to be able to go on the net on my XDA via bluetooth using my current internet connection on my laptop.
My laptop and main PC are connected to a router, is there anyway to extend this shared connection to my XDA so I can go online on it without using my GRPS.
Any help appreciated.
Simon
activesync -> options -> rules -> pass through - internet.
if u can use pocket IE with the XDAii GRPS off, in the USB cradle,
after the above setup, then it should work when u go thru BT as well.
I sorted it in the end.
Uninstall Bluetooth Dongle
Reinstall Bluetooth Dongle
Hard Reset XDA
Works a treat now and good range too, well over 20m......so far!
Please excuse my ignorance on all this but i'm a new user. I am trying to get activesync working over bluetooth. My bluetooth on pc does not have activesync profile or service. Does anyone know how I can do this?
Or can someone just provide a link where I can find out how this works? Thanks
Ok I found the instructions on myxda2 web site.
But looks like I'll have to esablish a cable usb connection before i can configure the activesync for bluetooth.
If the Bluetooth on your PC does not have the ActiveSync profile, then use the Serial Port profile and set up ActiveSync to allow connection from the serial port created by the Bluetooth driver. Then pair your XDA II's Bluetooth with your PC's Bluetooth. After that, launch ActiveSync on your XDA II and select "Tools->Connect via Bluetooth..." on the menu. Your XDA II should then sync with your desktop PC.
go to this site download the BTtools, it will fix bt problem

Hi,
as here are probably the most experienced people, I am looking for some advice on my new XDA mini S. I cannot synchronise through Bluetooth the XDA with my notebook using ActiveSync 4.2, as my XDA only allows me to use for Bluetooth COM6 or COM7, however my comp does not offer me these COMs.
Can anybody help me?
Thank you.
Solution
It happens.
Do this: Connect directly via usb port and initiate active sync.
Disconnect and try connecting via Bluetooth through active sync from your device.
Your device prompts you to search for a pairable device.Make the device search for your computer.Simaltaneously make your computer search for a bluetooth device.
When both meet, set the matching passwords for both. Now your computer says that a remote device has connected to serial port "X".Your device prompts you to accept it as a serial port.Dont accept, go back.
Now you open Active sync on the desktop, go to Connection settings. There an adjustable field can be found. "Allow connections to following port".Move it to the serial port"X".
Try connection again through your bluetooth.This time your device prompts you to accept it as actisync.Accept and you are ready to go.
Well, thank you for your effort, but it seems just a bit complicated, nevertheless it has not worked...
