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.
And when i push Connect via BT nothin happens
there is something of wrong on your pc/ppc
We are in 4 and all works fine.

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.

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!
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)
http://howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=544932
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.
I would like to ask,how can I connect to AS via BT,when I tap to Tools>Connect via BT... it ignores me. It does absolutely nothing. While attempting to connect via IrDA,it starts to connecting. The same thing should do also BT. Once,maybe 1 month ago it worked fine. Since one week ago,when I've changed the Radio stack I couldn't connect. Before was all allright. Any Ideas? Please.
hey bro
since ur running magneto on ur himalaya,it should be easy...
broadcom bluetouth stack ufortunatlydon't run on magneto ,but still M$ blutouth one will synchronize...
now u have to do the following:
1-uninstall every bluetooth software from ur pc(if u have intalled the ones that comes in the cd),restart,put bluetouth into usb,and let winxp sp2 identifies it(remember,only win xp drivers,no softwares).
2-go to control pannel in ur pc/bluetouth devices/com ports,and see wich com port ur blutouth is using,then from the options tab,select the turn discovery on.
3-go to active synchronization 4.0/file/connection settings,disselect allow USB connections,select allow connections to one of the following:,and put the com port u already checked in 2,and put automatic in the window below.u may need to restart ur pc.
4-now,pair ur pc and ur himalaya,u must see that ur PC supports active synchronization,then select/check it.(if u do not see,from ur himalaya,once paired,that ur pc supports active sync and checked it,u will not be able to sync).note that u may also need to restart ur pocket PC.
5-finally,go to ur pocket PC/active synchronization/connect via bluetouth,the port will open....ur now connected. :wink:
oh by hte way,the same procedures work if u have 2003se with bluetouth stack by widcom,just don't open active sync on ur himalaya before going to bt stack/bluetouth manger(that's the blue blutouth icon with red star in the buttom of ur screen)/active sync via blutouth(i guess,i don't have SE anymore),u will see ur PC with active sync option,then just synchronize :wink:
hope i've helped..
RAGO :lol:

Well... All I have with my BT stack at the PC's side is correct. At the PPC side it is also correct adjusted. Now,in the 5th step you wrote:
'...go to ur pocket PC/active synchronization/connect via bluetouth,the port will open....'.
This is the problem: It should open the port,BUT it does absolutely nothing... Just the 'Tools' roll-up menu is disappeared. While trying to connect via IrDA,the port starts to connecting. BUT Bluetooth doesn't it. Why?
hi
have u tried hard reset,if u have and the problem persists,try flashing.....the procedures should work unless there's some kind of problem in ur device(most probably software issue),it should be solved with a hard reset or in the worst a flash...
tell me the news,my friend...i wish i could have helped
RAGO :lol:
...
As I wrote in my 1st post:I have reflashed he Radio stack and therefore I have performed a hard-reset. The ROM Image is the same as before when it worked. Don't thing,that the Radio stack is the reason why...
all i can tell u my friend is i was using 2.06 WWE with Radio 1.18 on my MDA2,and my active sync over bluetouth worked like a charm.....
try changing the radio version(though u didn't mention wich version u're using)...
good luck
...
ROM:2.06(Diamond)
Radio:1.18
Well...The Radio version is 1.18,but I have 2 different versions..1st is in the package of Diamond ROM 1.2 and the 2nd one is from the package 2.20CHS Translated. The Chinese is much faster! even they are the same versions.
when i get home,i'm gonna reflash my MDAII,with 2.06(am running on magneto :wink: ),i'm gonna try everything,and tell u what's happening in details :wink: ...
so...later bro :wink:
RAGO :lol:
????????????
Well!!!!! You are bored at home? It takes a long time after all... Or do you have MDA2 only for experiments? Wau. Allright,as you wish. I will be grateful. If you have a choice,then flash-in the same images as me(ROM 2.06 and Radio from 2.20CHS). Thanx.
Can anyone here!!!!!?
Can anyonew explain how to active sync via BT in XDA2s having a Widcom stack and XP with service pack2..... :roll: :roll:

I have xda II and activesync 4.0 installed in my machine.
I am not able to find my bluetooth serial port in activesync connection.
actually by installing and uninstalling bluetooth software many time. My ports are com 25 and com 26. I just come to know from activesync help that it will not support if port no. is higher than 20.
so can anybody please help me how to create new port which is with less no. below 20.
:?:
Hi Man i have Your same problem with i-mate Jam iam realy need a solve
If You reach it please told Us Thank Youuuuuuuu
Solution
I've found that...
@PC: You need to create an BT serial port in your services(COMx). Then go to the connection settings in AS and check the "Allow connection to one of the following:" option and choose this COMx.
@PPC: Pair your device with PC. You should see the AS service in a list of services of your PC. Enable this option and tap Finish.
Now you should be able to connect via BT.
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

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 !!
thank you all
now al things work perfectly.
You're welcome.
Hi,that message(desligue o modo de....)compare from a few time on my magician.The rom is the same from 8 month,and the messagge compare from 1 month.The only things that I change are the 2 giga sandisk,and I installed 3 different navigator on my device.I don't think the problem comes from rom(1.12 ita),maybe from sd or other navigator?
Hello guys i have a magician with windows mobile 2003, ROM version 1.12.00 WWE, actually downloaded from magician wiki,
my problem is as the title suggests, i can't synchronise using bluetooth, things are fine wth USB, but not with bluetooth.
i have been searching the forum for a week now, and followed many steps, but no use...when i start Active Sync on the PPC and i press connect via bluetooth i get stuck in "connecting to host" and it doesnt change.
i have an ASUS notebook (XP SP2)with Build in Bluetooth, and use ActiveSync 4.5.
2 more notes:
1. i had vista on the notebook a week ago, and things were totally fine, bu as i am back to XP, and to ActiveSync 4.5, things don't work, it never worked even with the previous XP.
2. i am not good in these things,,,so please a bit more detalied comment will be very helpful
thanks in advance
regards
can we debug it?
Hello guys:
to make things easier...
can one of you guys provide me with the steps that he thinks work fine, and then i can execute these steps...and debug the problem togehter...
thank you for your help
no hope for help??
