My 1.01 device Bluetooth Activesync connection worked perfect. It took me a while to find the correct how-to-install-activesync procedure, but it worked.
I now installed 1.11 and I tried about everything. I cant make the Bluetooth Activesync work again.
Anybody has this working?
Whats the new tab 'COM Ports' in the Bluetooth settings used for?

Worked it out here..
Had to chose new outgoing port in new Port tab in BT .. after I did all the other.. pair and so ..
And I have to reboot the PC.. and let the active sync look for bt connection just when it boot.. after it found it first time .. it works .. always.
Had to try 2-3 times before it worked.. little more tricky then before.. but .. now it works great..

In 'COM Ports' there is only 'New incoming Port', not 'New outgoing port'.
I rebooted the pc, erased all pairs on the S100.
Then paired with the pc with both 'outgoing and incoming' port active. The link on the pc shows a COM4 port attached to the S100 bluetooth settings.
But still no activesync, or no 'New outgoing port' in the 'COM Ports' tab.
Can you desribe step-by-step how you managed to get bt activesync working?

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:
http://www.bluetooth.i-networx.de
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

Hi all,
Since upgrading to the recently released O2 ROM I can no longer get my activesync to work over bluetooth. I have reinstalled the bluetooth module on the PC and tried many many times to connect - without sucess.
Usually I just make sure of the following:
XDA2 paired with laptop (Dell D600).
ActiveSync BT profile installed and set to COM4 (in this case)
Activesync itself has COM4 in its settings.
Then usually, I go to activesync on the XDA2, hit sync over bluetooth and hey-presto! But since the upgrade I get nothing...no messages, no failure, no connection....just nothing.
Has anyone seen this and found a way out? I have trawled the forum but nothing seems to help.
Cheers - Rich
Hi,
It is very odd. I know and this happen to three XDA II devices in our office after the upgrade. If you experiencing the following.
1) Go the ActiveSync of XDA and select Tools and then Connect Via Bluetooth. Nothing happens. None of the usual dialog box saying "Opening Port".
This is how I got it working again for all three devices.
1) Uninstall the bluetooth application and driver from your PC and reboot.
2) Reistall the bluetooth application and driver.
3) From the XDA II.
a) Remove any previous pairing that you may have made before.
b) Go Start -> Settings -> System -> Bluetooth Settings
c) Click the "Start" Button
d) Select the Bonded Devices Tab
e) Select "New" and go through the pairing process.
4) Now the bluetooth via ActiveSync should work.
Note:. Check on bluetooth settings the comm port setting used and make sure that ActiveSync is using the same comm port. Also upgrade to the latest ActiveSync version 3.7.1 Build(4034).
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Kueh.
Hi There.
I had this problem also.
All I did was go into ActiveSync on the PC and deleted the bonding between the two devices. (Its in the file menu somewhere). Then on the PPC, go to Start, Settings, System, Bluetooth Settings, then click on the ActiveSync setup and start a fresh.
Good luck, hope it all works.
Rob.
EXCELLENT!!
Many thanks - in my rush I had forgotten to tell it to start the bluetooth activesync setup as described in your mail.
Many thanks - R
I recently received a K-JAM from Dubai where it had been picked up at GITEX. It has the Arabic keyboard and customizations. It worked fine, Bluetooth sync with PC (IBM X41 with IBM Bluetooth IV, Ver 3.0.1.917) via COM5 which is the Bluetooth Serial Port on the PC.
I did a hard reset (default Arabic ROM 1.1.9.3 ExtROM 1.1.9.103), used the Cancel option when asked to choose from a list of Middle Eastern operator customizations, and used the Decline option to avoid installing the Imaginet Custom Arabic software which I don't have any use for.
After that, everything works perfectly EXCEPT that I can no longer do a Bluetooth sync - on the K-JAM, after pairing, when I try to assign a COM port by clicking New Outgoing Port, where earlier (before hard reset) I had the option of COM5, COM6 or COM7, I now have only options for COM6 and COM7.
I setup a second serial port on the PC under Bluetooth Local Services, on COM7, in addition to the first on COM5 and set ActiveSync to use COM7 and the K-JAM to use COM7, but ActiveSync keeps saying "Cannot find an existing Bluetooth partnership with a PC that supportsActiveSync. Would you like to set up a partnership now? Yes No", and no matter how many times I repeat the pairing, it keeps on saying the same thing.
Infrared sync and USB sync continue to work perfectly.
What has happened during the Hard Reset that takes away the option to use COM5 with the New Outgoing Port?
Is there a Registry entry somewhere that I can tweak to allow this? All suggestions to fix this are welcome.
Thanks,
BillyB

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

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 donĀ“t find it. Help....
