Hi all,
I've just recently upgraded to the above ROM- everything else seems to be fine but I've just realised that the 'Settings' for BT are slightly different to my original rom version.
I can pair the JAM fine with the PC but it won't let me connect. As I look at the BT settings, I can see the following tabs: Mode, Devices and COM Ports; it's the COM ports that has changed. It's got New Outgoing Port and New Incoming Port. When i select either of these I can't assign any port number; the drop down list is blank.
P.S. I was able to connect fine via BT using my original ROM v1.00 or something.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
hey man
i just posted another querry regarding the card reader ...
hope u read it !!
getting back to yr problem
follow the instructions on this link and yr problem will be solved (HOPEFULLY)

I remember reading that link a while ago but I got the BT working without Pocket Tools software...
Anyway, I've tried both versions from the website but after installing either of them, the connect via bluetooth in Tools of ActiveSync is not there; just the IR. As soon as I uninstall the software it's back there.
I thought I had mastered the myth of Jam and Bluetooth- looks like back to square one!
Sorry - I'm just impatient- reinstalled and re-paired a few times and all is fine now.
Thanks for your help.
reinstalled what may i ask? im having this exact problem at the mo
Instructions from the top of my head (excuse any errors)
1) I removed the Pocket Bluetooth tools from remove programs
2) Perform soft reset and remove any existing paired devices
3) Reinstall the Bluetooth Tools (i used the an earlier version)
4) Select ActiveSync check box
5) The device should be paired
6) Go to to ActiveSync on PPC; go to tools and you should see Connect BT with ***
This should work.

Hi All,
Before running the upgraded ROM, to enable ActiveSync via Bluetooth, I had to download and install a Bluetooth file from a site I can't remember now. After the upgrade I can't use ActiveSync via Bluetooth and am not sure whether I need to reinstall the same Bluetooth stuff as before as I thought the ROM had Bluetooth fixes in it for ActiveSync etc.
Has anybody else been able to connect via Bluetooth after the upgrade with no other files being installed ?
Thanks,
Rob.
yes i use activesync via bluetooth at work and home using the new rom and installing no other software.
It was a pain getting it to work, and what i did in the end was delete all parterships in activesync and start again from stratch, that worked for me.
This is what i did:
I couldnt get my XDA2 to access the net via BT active synch until i went into start / settings / system / bluetooth settings / bluetooth active synch setup.
It then asks you to bond the XDA2 with your pc ( if its already bonded, delete it ) once done, you then click yes to let the XDA2 use the pc's serial port, do the same on the pc, and connect via BT as normal.
Works great !
Just upgraded my XDA II to O2 ROM 1.72 and I'm trying to recreate the bond for bluetooth ActiveSync. When I upgraded to 1.60 this was easy, so I've tried to do the same so I can surf the web at home for free.
I made a mistake though: I created a new bonded device in bluetooth before I clicked the 'Connect via bluetooth' menu item in ActiveSync. Now when I click that, nothin happens. No error, no dialog box, nothing. When I upgraded before I clicked the ActiveSync option before making the bond and that way it worked.
I've tried deleting the bond with the server from the XDA II and then going back into ActiveSync to the 'Connect via bluetooth' option, but the same thing happens. The XDA II isn't even opening the COM port.
Can anyone help?
*bump*
Update: I did a hard reset and tried setting up Bluetooth ActiveSync again... No luck. It just doesn't work. I can bond to the PC over BT but nothing else.
Can anyone help? Please?
i have no problem with activesync via bluetooth between my pc & ppc, i have upgraded to uk 1.72.181
just followed this guide
http://www.geekzone.co.nz/content.asp?contentid=2417
starting to start---settings---system---bluetooth settings---start---new (bonded)
my pc with xp sp1 & widcomm 1.4.3.4
hope this helps
ajong, you're a star!!! Thank you!
I read those instructions and realised I was clicking the wrong thing to start the whole bluetooth ActiveSync setup process. Doh!!!
Anyway, got it working now. Great!
Hello! i always read this forum.... today i've found a tutorial to sync magician over BT connection with ORIGINAL stack & no other stuff...
it's in italian, but so simple, just follow the sequence of the configuration step by step, in described order
HERE
Regards
Wow, that's really simple! I'm Dutch, working on a German computer without any knowledge of the Italian language and it worked within a minute!
Thanx for this post
Bluetooth ActiveSync Setup
That's what I've been missing...
I've done everything except to start that "Bluetooth Activesync Setup" in Settings->System->Bluetooth Settings
For anybody else who have been failing to activesync with bluetooth, this may be the one you miss. I wonder why PocketPC doesnt come with this service setup from the factory.
Thanks for the information SkizZO!!
Yes! in particular AFTER the click on ActiveSync BT Settings, you HAVE TO PAIR your PPC with your PC.
If after tapping "ActiveSync Settings over BT" in BT Settings, you close the new window with Bluetooth activation/rules, you break ActiveSync setup, then no BT connection will be estabilished!!
I spent a lot of time to sync via BT, and the solution was really really simple!!! :shock:
thanx man! it was sucessfully done! so happy....
mmm ... dint work
did all like in manual but the step, between finishing add process of BT device and starting active sync on PPC, failed. It didnt ask me anything, just added the device.

You COM port number may be too high. Activesync only recognises up to COM 9. Here's another guide that includes info on how to delete unused COM ports.

hi guys i'm a newby (this forum is great!)
i'm from Italy
i've a problem for my S100-Jam-Magician smartphone.
The Bluetooth doesn't work...
i tried before to connect a my friend's phone via bluetooth, the magician recognize the phone (i can read the name of the phone in the bluetooth settings) but the communication doesn't work.
i cant't upgrade the phone on clubuimate, (i don't have the time to explain) so i'm here.
now i've bought this GPS receiver (Sirf STAR III) http://www.handnav.co.uk/product_details.php?id=228
and i've installed the tomtom navigator 5 software (it works) with italian Map.
as for the phone The Magician relevate the name of the receiver, but it doesn't work, there are problems and the bluetooth connection go down automatically. (i've tried normal ways e all normal settings combination - port 4 , 5 , but nothing-9
Appears continuosly the message
"Desligue o modo de voo em primeiro lugar!"
i think it's spanish or portoguese, but i don't undestand why, because i have the italian rom. U(maybe because i had installed before another version of tomtom navigator with portoguese map?)
i've read other post about bluetooth but the tools doesnìt work and i haven't founded the .cab file that maybe solve bluetooth problems.
Can you help me ?
i'm in troubles !
SOLUTIONS :
1) some patch to install that resolve bluetooth problems
it should better because the phone works good...
2) upgrade magician ROM
i don't know which is my rom version
during the magician rebooting appear
R 1.05.00 G 1337.39 D 1.06.04 ita
however i think it is old...
with an official (on clubimate) newer version are there bletooth improvings ?
IMPORTANT
a - i'd like a working italian version
b - i have seen the upgrading post for magician and i HAVE NOT UNDERSTOOD ANITHING...because i'm not a tecnich or expert...only a normal user ... forgive me
there is a easier and more detailed tutorial?
is there some italian user that can help me?
my msn accont is [email protected]
thankyou
The ?best? bt patch can be found here: O2 MINI NEW BLUETOOTH STOCK.

Find yourself a rom on the ftp, either shipped-rom (.exe) or image file (.nb1) and give me signal what you've chosen. I'll send you the instructions for the necessary steps.

Hello!
Before upgrading your Magician, You should test your bt GPS connection with an other little GPS software like cemonitor ( download link--> http://www.gpspassion.com/fr/download.asp?dl=1 )
Try to find your BT GPS com Port normally is com 5. If not I give you a little soft that map the com5 automatically at start. It is "tomtom5patch.exe" that must be on your "\windows\Startup\" folder.
SoftReset your Magician after this install.
In CEmonitor, set the com 5 and look if your GPS communicate.
I forgot to tell you to set the BT GPS on the windows settings, with the correct password. You probably made it before.
Try it and ask again...
nothing to do
the first patch is good but doesn't resolve my problem
that damned write in spanish continues to appaer when i try to make bluetooth work and bluetooth shut down.
the second patch doesn't work, when
i think i have installed a wrong or damnaged software on the PDA in the past that has ruined something...
THANK YOU for the helping,
now i'll try to install a new rom with your help.
have you got any suggestion for the rom to install?
do they work all fine, even in italy? wìhich is the best one in your opinion?
is there the risk to damnage the magician?
There's a 1.12ITA shipped-rom on the ftp under magacian. This is the safest upgrade.
- make a backup of every piece of data you want to keep, especially contacts, calendar, tasks. Everything will be lost & programs need to be reibstalled
- synchronize with outlook via Act.Sync
- Download the ITA1.12 shipped-rom
- execute the downloaded file
- follow instructions on your PC & watch the progress on the magician as well
- when finished, you'll be asked to hard-reset
- hard-reset & enjoy the upgraded magician
- synchronize the outlook data
- reinstall your programs
That's it.
Regards, M
it seems simple...
now i try
grazie !!

I just tried installing this on my flashed-to-new-imate-jamin-rom dopod but it doesn't install, so i'm assuming it checks for ROM versions prior to installation. anyone have the same problem as i do? maybe the new imate rom already addresses this issue.
I have the same problem. Mine (818 Pro) was also flash to latest Jamin rom recently.

disappointed
I screamed in joy when I saw the USB Sync patch but only ended up crying in tears after installing it. I am still faced with the "need to soft-reset after 1st ActiveSync" problem. :roll:
Anyone has this problem solved???

Agreed... But the USB Switch is still useful, cause now syncing is instantanous, although I repair the ActiveStync instead of soft reset, cause even a Hard Reset doesn't work...
