I had a damm similar problem as i could not sync the device via bluetooth.
I have an XDA2 and upgraded my rom to the o2 release from last week. I was hoping that all the serial profile issues would have been resolved in respect to bluetooth gps, but it just made things worse as there are no obvious setting in which i can assign a serial profile to a particular port or even get activesync to work no matter what.
So finally I gave in and downloaded the Bluetooth Tools by Towas again and installed them. Straight away my xda2 was bonding with my gps again and when u add ur pc as a new device (new bonding), under the bluetooth tools u simply select activesync. then u can straight away sync initiated by the xda2 and once a connection is established, u get automatically internet access.
another issue was that my bluetooth software on the pc created too many 'dummy' serial com ports for bluetooth which didnt actually work, so i ended up removing them all under the device manager (windows system- hardware) and then setting up a new bluetooth serial port on my pc (make sure u set up just one).
get the bluetooth tools from:

Yeh, 15 serial ports my bluetooth dongle software set up on my pc, whats all that about, greedy or what?
15 :shock: !! Haha..
I only have 1 I think

I recently got a Bluetooth dongle for my PC but can't get my XDA-II to use any of the services !
When I select ActiveSync and the Sync with Bluetooth I get
'Cannot start communications with the desktop computer. The communications prt is not available. Another program may be using the port, or it may not be valid.
Quit any programs that may be using the port and reconnect. If the problem persists, restart your device using the instructions provided by the manufacturer.'
When I choose Bluetooth settings and select 'Bluetooth ActiveSync Setup'->Start on the XDA II I get 'Please bond with other Bluetooth device which supports serial port or ActiveSync profile as your ActiveSync partner !
The PC has the ActiveSync service enabled and I am now stuck. Please help.
Try this utility.

Install it, do a soft reset. Delete previous BT connection and find again.
you should get an option to sync on your XDA II with the specific computer.

try following this tutorial at geekzone

try to turn off infrared communication on ppc.
try to delete all bounded devices both pc and xda.
try to search for a bt device again.
You have to follow the above mentioned procedure. After that you start to search the device with ActiveSync.
ActiveSync will start to check all the serial ports, one port before it comes to the port that is used by your BT stack, you should start ActiveSync via BT on your XDAII.
This is the only way (for me) to get that crap working. After the XDAII and the computer have found each other, future syncs via BT are no (or at least not a big) problem. If the XDAII and the computer sometimes dot not find each other, try to sync 2-3 times, it will hopefully work then. Sometimes there seems a kind of timeout error.
I don't use BT anymore 'cause it is really a hard job to get it running. Even when I managed to establish the connection, after some days the connection gets lost again and can only be repaired by re-installing the BT stack or ActiveSync - I am really tired of beta testing all the bluetooth stacks and stopped to use it until the industry established a working standard...
I try a lot of time after install Tobias application for BT, but I can not see the new dialog after pair my XDA II with PC. Someone help me!
I had the exact same experience. I have not sorted out my the BT problems yet but suffered also from the interrupted connection using the cradle until I disabled Norton anti-virus and firewall.
HELP!
No connection possible between my PC and MDA-II.
Bluetooth Devices program in Windows XP SP2 comes up with "incoming port: 17", while ActivSync seraches only ports 1 to 9.
How can I make them listen to the same port?

I have been able to get the bluetooth paired, a bluetooth serial port setup, active synch setup, etc.
I get as far as the device connecting, but then it just hangs. I can leave it there for 20 minutes and it still just hangs. I tell it to just synch calender and hangs.
Anybody have any ideas?
P.S - I have tried on multiple different machines. They are all running on Windows 2000 SP4, Active Synch 3.8 and the latest iMate rom. Using Outlook 2002 and Outlook 2003.
hi ppl

thanks

thanks!
however i get to the :
"Select the Options button..." - in Microsoft ActiveSync.
But the "options" button is actually greyed out for me, so i cant get any further...any ideas?
if it's on the pocketpc then first you need to bond with the pc
if it's on the pc then you need to choose a com port which the bluetooth use as a valid com connection if the pda use vidomm bluetooth stack then the site also have a guide to set it up using that
My magician doesn't have a bluetooth configuration like that in figures.
Mine is MUCH MORE simple.
Looking at the figures it seems that the bluetooth stack on that pocket pc is the widcomm...
Anyone knows how to upgrade the bluetooth stack on my Magician?
..or better.. is there a way to use it with the current bluetooth implementation?
prob because you picked the wrong guide?

i cannot sync via bluetooth......my laptop detects and its paired too...no incoming or outgoing ports are seen....i hve 2 BA both upgraded to WM6... working allright ....please somebody help
Well, you didn't exactly give much information.
What do you mean "no incoming or outgoing ports are seen"? What do you get when you go into activesync on the angel and tell it to connect via bluetooth?
you must have enabled on your PC BT dongle one incoming and one outgoing com port, also in activesync on your pc in connection settings you must check that activesync to accept connection on your incoming port. Then the sync over BT will be possible
bluetooth
thank you explode I have done it now
What settings do I need to fill up?

I have the same problem, just enable the beam in the connections manager, then enable the bluetooth as well , then set bluetooth to discoverable in the bluetooth settings then everything works fine.
It seems the beam must be enabled as well for some reason.
Would love to know if there is a more elegant solution though.
I can create only incoming port on PC. When I try to create the outcoming port, he try to find the device (BA) but don´t find it. Help....
