How to create the COM5 port for Bleutooth in WM2005

Can someone create a cabfile which creates the registry entries in WM2005 for the COM5 Bleutooth entries. In WM2003(SE) the COM5 was defined for outgoing BT connections. I used it for my BT GPS. Within my GPS Navigation software I only can choose one of the declared COM ports. When I pair my BT GPS I can specify with the COM Ports tab that my GPS can be found at COM5. But COM5 is not listed in WM2005 as an available COM port. Does anybody now how to create an registry entry for this?

After you Pair up the GPS:
Then Go COM Ports / then select Outgoing Port / then select Com5

That's it.. )
THANX Jose...

PS: Nice fiddling around..

Hi from a newbie. I've just bought the TyTn11 and would like to use bluetooth to access my laptop's internet connection. Part 1 of your instructions were easy enough to follow but part 2 confused the hell out of me - not least because I don't have a Network Cards icon from Start > Settings > Conections >. The TyTn is running WM6 if that's any help. Any pointers would be greatfully accepted

it's
Start > Settings > Conections > connections > adcanced > select network
pick the item in the dropdownbox which is not called something like my isp or such
usualy the 2th item

Thanks Rudegar, I'll give it a try.

Hi,
I'm trying to get Internet over bluetooth working on my TyTN with WM6.
I've got bluetooth network access point configured on my Linux PC so part 1 is done.
In part 2 I've successfuly configured IP and DNS for Bluetooth PAN driver but I can't find the option "Join a personal network" in my bluetooth settings.
Actually I'm stuck in part 2 point 6 as there is no <u>Bluetooth Manager</u> link under bluetooth settings.
Any advice?

I'd like to connect my bluetooth-enabled e800 through my hx4700,but there's no "connection sharing" that I can enable.Is it enabled automatically?

thankx mate for info but i have htc p3300 Start > Settings > Conections > connections > adcanced > select networkit show only ( 1 my work network)(2 my ISP)which i should connect????

Hi,
I can't find out how to access this on a HTC Touch (Elf). Can someone please help?
Thanks

SubZero,
I not sure if you're instructions are correct.
From you wiki page-
Part 2: Setting Up Your HTC:
1. Go to Start > Settings > Conections > Network Cards. This option doesn't exist!
2. Tap the adapter named Bletooth PAN User Driver. You will now see IP Address tab selected in the Settings.
3. Select Use server-assigned IP Address.
Could someone who has done it on thier HTC diamond please check this?
Thank You

3)read my 1 post and try it! I liltle bit change it & try 3time, all works
Good luck

THANKS OF NEW BUT NOTHING
I HR the pda and reinstall AS and BT SW
Thanks

I'm not sure what i did but it works - that's all what counts
By the way - what is BT soft ?

mine is widcomm
regards

did you use comport 20 for you activesync connection?

no i haven´t got 20 port available ...
thanks of new

I think I've got it
But it's a little tricky
1. Delete all connections on Pc and PPC
2. Start the Setup-Assistent and choose I want to find
3. Initiate Paaring
4. Choose ActiveSync without secure connection.
5. Set com20 if possible.
6. Please go to your ppc properties on your pc and allow active sync
If you coose com20 you can quit here, if not try this:
7. Start->Run->Regedit
8. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\WIDCOMM\BtConfig\Services\
9. Search the folder with Name=ActiveSync (I have 0010)
10. Change the ComPortNumber to 20.
11. Search with your PPC the services on your pc and take activesync
12. Go to the preferences of your bluetooth-enviroment of your pc and take the tab local services. Now change the com-port number of your activesync service to an existing one (I have 4).
Now it should work

What if my computer does not show Activesync as a bluetooth option. I can get PIM synchronization but no Activesync. How do I go about adding Activesync as a service my computer can use?

I think the Activesync service is nothing else then a serielle connection called "ActiveSync" with com-port 20. Just create this on manually.

i think tomorrow we have a new rom version, a uninstall AS, and HR to the ppc, then i do this test...
thanks

I have the same problem, when I try to connect from the PPC it says there's no partnership with an AS enabled PC. And when pairing / updating services, the PPC sees serial and handsfree services on the PC, but no AS. Partnership is established, it works fine over USB.
Like miguelromerom I also use the Widcomm stack. Mine is urrently version 5.0.1.1400. I tried several older versions as well.
On the PC I have an incoming bluetooth serial port at COM 4, which is named "My ActiveSync". Secure connection not checked. AS 4.1 is set to allow connections on COM 4. The service on the PC is active.
On the PPC I had optionally configured serial ports: incoming (7), and outgoing (6) to the PC. Set the non secure. Though I'm not sure if either of them is required. I suppose we're all agreeing the port numbers on the PPC bear no relation to the port numbers on the PC?

I also tried this. I still see no AS service from the PPC when doing this. It is not possible to select COM20 in the AS 4.1 connection settings.

ActiveSync via Bluetooth
I am not sure how it will go with Wizard, but with Magician it help me.
I found this step, but I forgot the origin. So actually no permission from the author. I share this with hope can help others. Hopefully the author understand.
-----
1)On your PC go to the Control Panel and select "Bluetooth". In the "Options" tab, make sure all the ticks are on. You'll now see a little bluetooth icon on your system tray. Makes it easier to access in the future. Your PC should also be ready to be found as long as you ticked the fist box in the step above.
2)On your Jam, Go to Start, Settings, System (Tab), Bluetooth Settings. On the screen that comes up you ONLY want to hit start. Leave the incoming and outgoing checkboxes OFF!!!
3)You will now be taken to the partnership screen, where you just follow the instructions to add your PC. Follow through until you hit finish. Close everything down until you're back at the today screen.
4)Back to your PC, double click on the Bluetooth icon in your system tray. Go to "Com Ports" (Tab) and click "Add". Choose incoming. A You'll see an incoming port added to the list (probably be the only item there). It should look like "COM X Incoming"
Remember what number is after COM. Close all windows, making sure you hit OK or Apply where you have to.
5)Open Active Sync on your PC. Hit File, Connection Settings. Enable the first tick, and select the COM port you had to remember in the previous step. Hit OK
6)Open Active Sync on your Jam. Choose Tools, Connect Via Bluetooth.

HOW to set: ActiveSync over Bluetooth

Guys,
I can't setup ActiveSync 4.1 to work over BT
Can you please give me more details on how to do that?
I have a Win XP laptop with builtin BT.
Martin

did you do the normal procedure? i mean pairing the two devices?
you should do it though from the device, it's more certain to work.
anyway if it didn't, try to do the following:
check the connectiond settings in AS 4.1 & make sure to check the box where it says "allow connections to one of the following:" and take note of the port #.
then go to the advance configurations on the bluetooth icon on the task bar, click on the "local services" tab, and click on "add serial port" button, choose the same port # you noted in the connection settings in AS.
that's it, you should be able to sync over BT.
