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?

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

1)On HTC BT setings delete device "PC"
2)on PC in Windows Explorer unpair your device "HTC"
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.

Hi there,
I've just purchased a v1605, and have a few problems with it. The main one I've detailed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=363987#363987
But in addition to this, I was wondering how on earth I set the bluetooth name of my device?!?!? I can't find anywhere to do this, and it shows up as either ???, <no name> or similar depending on what I'm searching for it with.
Any help would be very gratefully received.
James.
Set the Owners name - that's what it uses at the BT name
Hi, I also have V1605, bluetooth id can be changed by doing the following
Goto:
"Start"
"Settings"
"About"
"Device ID"
"Device Name"
Just put whatever you want to call your device in "Device Name"
Don't bother with the "Description" field!
This then shows up perfectly in my Parrot CK3100, or any other bluetooth device I connect to.

Sorry, it should be:
Goto:
"Start"
"Settings"
"System"
"About"
"Device ID"
"Device Name"
Just put whatever you want to call your device in "Device Name"
Don't bother with the "Description" field!
This then shows up perfectly in my Parrot CK3100, or any other bluetooth device I connect to.

accidental post.
I've tried this, and it doesn't seem to change it.
Though my PC is now seeing it as Pocket_PC, rather than noname
Cheers anyway, I think there's something wrong with the BT in this device, as I've only got 2 services available, headset & dial up networking.
Vodafone Tech Support are supposed to be calling me, but I expect that'll be a complete waste of time.
James.
As a suggestion, have you unticked the "Enable advanced network functionality" box in Settings->Connections->USB to PC
Cheers for the reply paul_o,
Unfortunately I have done this, I had to to get the sync working over USB!
On the plus side, it is now using the owners name as the BT ID. Cheers petes.

I am having real trouble accessing any websites.
I have tried using my own wireless router (unsecured to aleviate complications). Even though there is a supremely strong signal the dialogue box pops up and "always" tells me unable to find website (or along those lines). The websites I am trying to access are very well known.
I have an SPV-M3100 (unlocked) - it runs my O2 contract sim card. All the software appears to be Orange issue. It is running WM6.
This might be a stupid question - Do I need to connect to the web using an O2 connection or can I use the Orange World one? I figured it's got to be similar to using my Virginmedia broadband connection to check my old BTYahoo emails or does it not work like that?
I am completely at a loss with PDA's.
If I need to use an O2 connection for my O2 Sim could someone please point me in the right direction for finding those settings.
Many huge thanks in anticipation.
S.
Lots of questions, lots of anwers.....
Hi,
Let me try and point you in the right direction....
I have an SPV-M3100 (unlocked) - it runs my O2 contract sim card. All the software appears to be Orange issue. It is running WM6.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Unlikely that it's got "Orange issue" software on a device that's been upgraded to WM6 - the WM6 ROMs are generic and not operator specific (unless the Orange software has been loaded from the ExtROM...possible, I guess). Check your OS version in Start | Settings | System Tab | Device Information - look at ROM version & date. Also check in Start | Settings | System Tab | About - look at the first line and the OS build no.
Next you ask about connecting to the web using O2 or Orange connection, but your post title mentions Wi-Fi
This might be a stupid question - Do I need to connect to the web using an O2 connection or can I use the Orange World one? I figured it's got to be similar to using my Virginmedia broadband connection to check my old BTYahoo emails or does it not work like that?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you're connecting to the net via Wi-Fi, then you're not using the operator's (O2) network, you're using your own broadband connection. Go to Start | Settings | Connection tab | Wi-Fi | Network adapters tab and make sure it says that the network card connects to "The Internet".
Then you ask about what connection settings you need - and yes, if you're using an O2 SIM, then you need the O2 network settings on your phone. Download them from >HERE< (The O2 UK settings at the end of the first post); copy them to your phone and tap on the file to install the settings. Then you need to power off your phone (hold the power button in until it asks you if you want to power off) and then power it on again.
Hopefully, once all of the above has been checked/completed, you should be able to access the web via Wi-Fi (when available) and via O2-GPRS when there's no Wi-Fi. You didn't say if your O2 SIM was a 3G-capable USIM, but if it is, then you'll be able to connect to the web via 3G too!
Post back with your results; I'd be interested to know if this little lot sorts the problem out for you
Cheers,
Mark.
Come here if you need to know what's what!
Those muppets in the Orange Shop - "Yeah right mate - your handset's already got WM6". You're the one that's right Mark - It's WM5.
I understand from reading around that .CAB files should be downloaded directly to you unit. When I choose <save> then select the directory it doesn't show <mobile device> or the device name.

Can anyone help please?
If you need more info just ask.

You can either copy a CAB file from your PC to your device using the "Explore" part of Activesync or download it from t'internet directly to your device. In either case, just make sure you put it somewhere you remember, coz you'll need to use File Explorer on the phone to find it again!!
If you're downloading directly to the phone, you get the option to "open file after download" - choose that and then click on "Save As"!! The "Save As" dialog has four dropdown boxes on; the first one is the file name, the second one is the folder (and contains a list of the folders in the current "location"), the third is the extension (can't change this!) and the fourth is the location - this is where you choose Main Memory, Storage Card etc. Choose the location first and the list of folders will change to show all folders in that location; choose the desired folder and hit "Save".
Once the CAB file has downloaded to the location you chose, it will open and begin installing; if you're installing - for example the O2 operator CAB - choose to install to "Device". Once installed, hold the power button to turn the device off (and save all the registry changes etc. you've just made!), then turn it on again.
That should do it!!
Mark.
How can I change my name in registry . He show owners name when I make a connection. I d'nt like it. Now somebody where I can change it.
Thanks.

In settings --> About --> Device ID (tab) --> Device name

When you want 2 keep the owner name (ie when u have registrations for it, such as with oziexplorece), but change the BT name, you need to go into the registry.
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\settings\
Change the name on the "LocalName".
Close program (save settings), wait for 30 seconds (important!) and then give a softreset.
