Is there any application which allows me to browse my PC folders from my PPC? I would like to do that when I am connected through activesync on bluetooth.
Thanks,
San
Yes !!
The name is 'Widcomm Bluetooth Stack' http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=63364#63364 you can browse your PC folder via PPC (File Transfer) using bluetooth.
Read carefully the instructions, coz no everyone luckily when using it !!
cheers,
Any software to do this??
When I put in my SD Wifi card into it, it doesn't seem to work. I know that my SD WiFi card is working as it works when I use it on a XDA II.
I went to check the Network Card on the Mini, it does not have the SDIO WLAN adapter in it. Is this normal? Does it mean that I have to install the adapter myself? Where can I find the adapter for XDA II Mini????
Thanks for your help as I am really new to this.

Sandisk Driver
I have an XDA Mini, downloaded and installed the latest driver from www.sandisk.com, have tried both the Wifi, and the combo wifi card, the wifi works well. The combo also works okay, although does have some lock ups, but IT DOES WORK!!!
I have been tyring to export ROM without doing any harm to device as only have it on load for a few more days, as want to bring the SDIO driver accross to my XDA2.
Have noticed the BT is having problems also, and would envisage an update is coming for this to bring up to new version that is on XDA IIs.

I shall try it when I get off work tonight.
Thanks again.
But one more question, does anyone know if the WLAN adapter should come with the XDA Mini?
You have to install the driver first .
After that no problemos
it work fine ( WifiFofum work very good !!!)

Hi,
the latest driver from sandisk that you have mentioned, is it this?
http://www.sandisk.com/download/Drivers/wifi/256mb-setup03.exe
or something better?
I'd tried this before in WM2003SE 2.06. No dice. If it works in Magician, I'm inclined to hope that the SDBus drivers has been updated, and (cross my fingers) that SDIO H/W slot is the same.
hmm....something more to be cheerful about during Christmas...
Yep, have a tried a few different versions, and all have worked okay. I had to give back the Mini before I could find the SDBus drivers, as had a similar idea for the XDA2.
Thanksfully still have a XDA2s to play with for a while.
Different version of SDIO drivers

I wonder why I didn't look at this before.
The Mini and JAM has the same version of SD drivers:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Drivers\SDIO]
"SDMemory"="0.25.00"
"Common"="0.25.60"
"SDBusDriver"="BSQ 1.2 + 0.25.00"
Whereas the 2.02/2.06 has these version:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Drivers\SDIO]
"Common"="0.15.10 HIMA"
"SDBusDriver"="0.15.00 HIMA"
Anyone can confirm the 2.20tl version?
The drivers are in the ROM though, and it's not a simple search and replace operation.
I wonder, would it be worth to upgrade the Himalaya with Magician ROM???
I'd quite a few pple now that says that the 256MB SD drivers for PPC 2003 works with the Mini now. I've tweaked the registries for the Himalaya, but only get as far to allow the wlan tools to recognise the card..still no joy.
Guess what...sd wifi of (256 combo) working....
I've managed to get the Wifi portion of the Sandisk Wifi 256 working
on my 206 ROMed XDA2 device.
The steps are abit complicated, so try at you own risks!
The steps are:
(a) download the sandisk 256 drivers from www.sandisk.com (256mb-setup03.exe)
(b) remove your XDA2 device from the cradle, and execute the file.
(c) Goto to the Microsoft ActiveSync folder, and look for this folder "SanDisk Corp\Wi-Fi_WINCE400"
(d) Within this folder, there is a Pegas.2577.CAB
(e) Using WinCAB Manager, open this CAB file
(f) Within the Pegas.2577.CAB file, there is another "SDBusDriver12.CAB" at file index 5.
(g) Now, download the Magician ROM (the SD card version) from the forum's ftpsite.
(h) Using dumprom, dump the contents of the Magician ROM and locate 2 files "SDBusDriver.dll" and "SDMemory.dll"
(i) Replace these 2 new files with the ones in the "SDBusDriver12.CAB"
(j) Re-save the "SDBusDriver12.CAB" and replace the file in "Pegas.2577.CAB"
(k) save "Pegas.2577.CAB" and connect the XDA2 device back to the cradle.
(l) install the Sandisk drivers following the prompts.
(m) Soft reset the XDA2 device when done.
Insert the 256MB+Wifi SD card, and activate the Wifi !!!
You might find that I've gone the long way as I have yet to figure out the full implications of the setup. It doesn't replace the original DLL files in /Windows as the 2 files are installed as CUSTOM SD drivers.
Perhaps we can pool our brains together and crack the SDMemory portion.
I am surfing on my XDA2 device using the Wifi as I am writing this, so I believe we are close to the verge of cracking this.

what is the brand of the access point wi-fi that you have ?

bussy deciding whitch one to buy, I'm now trying to access the neigboars netwerk.
Unless your neighbour has specifically allowed you access to his network you will probably not be allowed to connect.
And as long as you're trying with your neighbours access point, brilcas question about the make of the access point would apply to the one they have.
OK I had a wifi connection.
my brother turned his laptop into an AP and i had a connection with it.
So I know the wifi on the imate works but there's still one problem.
When i was connected with wifi and i tryed IE explorer it wanted to connected by using wifi.
How can i change that into wifi?
eltinio,
I am still trying to get WiFi to work on the WM2003SE UK XDAII version...
In response to your question, you need to tap Start > Settings > Connections and then tap Connections (make sure your WiFi card is in and enabled).
Tap the Advanced Tab and then tap the Select Networks button, from the first drop down list select My Work Network and then tap Edit.. > Proxy Settings tab and then tap the 'This Network connects to the Internet' checkbox and then tap OK to save and OK again to exit the connection manager.
You will no be able to browse the internet...
henrylim,
Could you post a link to the WiFi drivers you cooked or provide the file in this thread please so we can all test it out as most people may not able to perform the tasks you have listed to enable the WiFi drivers.
Thanks in advance,
Godz
XDA Mini and SD Wi-Fi
Do you guys know if the SD Wi-Fi card Sandisk or Sockets supports WPA encryption when added to the Mini and also if the problems with Dlink 54G/B wireless access points have been fixed yet?
Did anyone find a way to use WI-FI(much faster then BT/IR) to transfer files to a PC?
why should we use BT(MAX of 18 Kb/s) when we can use WI-FI with a max of 10 Mb/s??
If you mean ad-hoc connection, I have not tried but if you mean connecting the PPC to a network, just share a folder on the PC and transfer files through that shared folder.
Unfortunately, there don't seem to be a way to make a share folder on a PPC.
I'll try that, TNX.
you could install a ftp server such as vxftp.
I just share a folder on my laptop, then connect laptop and PDA both to same wireless base station. You can type in "\\servername" in totalcommander and navigate to your laptop and copy files back and forth. Works for Windows PCs - not sure about Macs/Linux.
I have a Blackstone there are one month, i tried many times to synchronize my outlook data via Bluetooth (Win Vista) but always no connection obtained. sync can done only using USB. also files transfere from PC to Blackstone pass without any problem.
anyone can help me?
I am having the same difficulty, I am fine using activesync via USB and set up the bluetooth apparently but they cannot "see" each other on bluetooth. a walkthrough on the GRemote website (http://gbmsoftware.com/index.php?op...e&id=17:bluetooth-howto&catid=3:faq&Itemid=14) says "Then you should download and run WM6BTPAN.exe on your device."
I have limted knowledge and have only ever used .cab files to run on my device. is this file unsuitable? It's an .exe inside a .zip, niether of which works on my phone.
I am new to android world.Plz help me with this problem. I am using connectify to make my laptop as a wifi hotspot. And using my laptop's internet connection into my Htc DHD without any problem. Now the problem is,today i am trying to access my DHD files via wifi using SwiFTP,it's ok but i cant access my laptop's files from my DHD using es file manager.It shows nothing on scan.I am going to lan option then menu->new->scan, it shows nothing.Plz help me brother.And forgive me for my bad english.
When you open ES File explorer, choose LAN and then scan computers in local networks
you need to share a folder on the pc first ,you can also connect the phone via usb in tether mod and share files also
