ok, im new so don't blast me for asking for help. I've searched all over the forums, but cant find what im looking for.
Ok i have had this phone (and is wicked by the way) for 1 day now,
i have removed all the crappy O2 stuff, with help from others on here!! Thanks guys. Got a reg editer so im getting there.
Basically i send my self a file with bluetooth and now i have no idea where it has saved itself.
I cant find any free WIFI connection programs that work, hitchhiker dont work for some reason get some error as it starts up.
The other thing i was looking for is something to scan for blutooth devices and maybe look on the other phone? i seem to remember this in an old PDA i used to have.
Thanks for any help
To scan for new Bluetooth Connection all you have to do is:
Go To Com Manager
Settings
Bluetooth
Bottom Tab Devices
New Partnership
This will scan for any available devices. The rest of you question I am not sure about.
When I save files I have received via blutooth they go into the my documents directory
hope that helps
yeah i can pair devices but i want to scan for a device and then be able to click on something like explore and see what they have on thier phone?
Does such thing exist?
I need a good free WIFI connection manager that i can download.
Thanks for both your help

Sorry, but can someone tell me why do networking with my XDAII..like what benefits as I still get Internet connection over bluetooth
it's faster
you dont need a bluetooth and activesync for it to work it will work on any wifi network
did i mention how much faster it is ?
it's more reliable then bluetooth which always seem to give people trouble from time to time
how do I share files over bluetooth when connected to my pc. like see files i ve shared on my pc? thx
The only program I have ever tried to perform this task is called PocketLANce. This will install a server on your machine that runs in the system tray and gives an interface on your XDA that is similar to Network Neighbourhood. It works ok, but was a little unpredicatable on mine. Prolly through my own fault though.
Good Luck,
Rob.
PS.. If anyone knows of a similar app for use over wifi, please let me know

Was this using Bluetooth then? If so, cool! I didn't think the XDA2 had the right BT profile to allow LAN networking over Bluetooth. It's something that Tobias is working on with his Pocket Bluetooth Tools, but it wasn't available last time I looked.

i guess you didn't check conent of CD included in box with your k-jam yet. on my CD i've found this document:
ftp://xda:[email protected]_using_i-mate_K-JAM_as_a_Bluetooth_Modem.pdf
this file is also available on www.clubimate.com support site after registration...
Anyone got the KJam / Mini S working over bluetooth with GPRS when connected to a Apple Powerbook?
Thanks,
Actually I followed the instructions of that doc but it still won't work. Maybe it's the stupid bluetooth stack of my toshiba laptop.
I can't see why activesync can't handle this right away. Oh, I can, it's an MS product.
Oh well. I'll keep trying
BTW, Have you killed AS?
i update my bt stack from toshiba web site and it works now.
What do you mean by killing activesync?

RE: Using Wizard as Bluetooth Modem for Apple Powerbook
adambern,
I finally managed to get my K-Jam working as a Bluetooth Modem over GPRS after quite a bit of searching! I can only verify that this will work in OS X 10.4.4 (latest version of Tiger), since I didn't seem to have the options available before I updated Tiger.
Firstly, you will need to download the Generic Mobile Phone Script available from Ross Barkman's excellent homepage: http://www.taniwha.org.uk/. I have attached it here, but you should really visit the site, if only to donate a pint to Ross for his excellent work!
You will also need to know the GPRS settings for your network. Again, Ross can sort you out on his site.
1. Put the Generic Mobile Phone script in the /Library/Modem Scripts folder on your Mac.
2. Open the Bluetooth Setup Assistant, and search for your Wizard.
3. Once found, allow your Mac to pair with your phone. The Mac should then come up with a couple of options. One of these options will be "Use your phone as a modem for your computer", or something along those lines. Tick this check box.
4. Your Mac will now ask for a load of settings. Make sure you enter the phone number as *99#, and enter your username and password as determined from your network.
5. Click OK, and close the Assistant.
6. Open Internet Connect in your Apllications folder.
7. Select Bluetooth, and click Dial.
8. Voila! Your phone should now be working as a modem!
If you have any problems, refer to the notes Ross gives with the scripts. I hope this is of assistance to those of us with a sensible choice in computers .
Many thanks Invisigoth... I'll give it a go later.
Great community spirit.
gosh, i still can't get it to work. i'm running xp though.
windows is trying to dial but then it doesn't work
You are a SAINT........
THANK YOU.
Worked first time for me and at last I have an internet connection from my phone with my Mac Powerbook..............
Again thank you.
Robin
Hallelujah, I finally got it to work.
I have one question though. It looks like that the 115 kbit bt com port speed is the bottle neck in this connection. Is there any way to raise that?
Thanks

Hey Guys,
I'm new to the PPC,where i just bought a K-Jam and installed activesync 4.1 on my laptop (winxp sp2).
i have also a bluetooth dongle (MSI) and it seems to be working fine with me, i can connect my kjam to the laptop to syncronize my data.
now when it comes to using the internet via my laptop, i'm lost
i've been reading all threats which confused me when setting up the connection and i'm still not able to work it.
please if anyone can help me step by step , i'll be thankfull
thanx in advance.
I have noted by Bluetooth experiences with connecting my Xda Exec to my Home PC internet connection. It took me over a weeks worth of shouting & frustration to get this working as I ended up falling down every pitfall you could fall down! :evil:
Anyway, take a look here:

all you need to do is discover your device and connect to the dial-up networking connection.....
once that's done it's just a matter of getting the correct phone number, username and password (if applicable).
In the US for T-Mobile the phone number is *99# and there is no user name or password.
dear underwurld
thinks for your fast response and for trying to help, not sure if the link is working at the moment , i've tried to open it several times.
lvlolvlo,
i donot think it can be that easy, i came across alot of threats were all about the activesync and ports and network connections , what made it more complicated.
any help..?
Oops sorry about that....
Missed a bloody 't' out try again:

@lvlolvlo... DUN connection via TMobile.... erm I didn't go anywhere near that
:shock:

Dear Underwurl,
i would like to thank u for these amazing information and references , however ( to tell u the truth) it is still confusing to me..
i thouhgt there might be any guidelines where i could go through steps
1-
2-
.
.
and so on...
i think i have no problem connecting my device to the laptop ( not through the dialup thing but through the activesync 4.1 and it says connected in both)
also all reference were talking about incoming ports and outgoings ones which doesnot exist in activesync4.2 ( i know it might exist on 3.8 ver)
1- if it is somehow connected to the activesync, are there anything to be configured for the proxy server , and how ( i'm using my office lan)??
2- when it says connected i try to open IE but all i get is page is under construction...what does that mean???
3- is it something related to the bluetooth (msi) driver or ghosted ports??
u c....i'm going randomly considering all these thoughts, which is confusing me alot...
will appreciate any help...
OK....
So, just to be clear:
Have you installed those nice WICOMM Bluetooth services installed on your PC?
Andy
PS
Do you have WiFi in your office???? Bin Bluetooth if you have!!!!!!!
yes, I installed the BT software that came with my BT dongle
it shows widcomm in my driver data
and no idonot have wifi in my office
what do u think?
while connected with my laptop via activesync, i checked the tcp/ip setting with pocket mechanic, it is showing a different ip address than the one in my laptop connection (LAN connection),
but showing a correct host name
and it says " Local area networks cannot directly communicate across wide area networks because they are defind by a private class of ip's"
any idea?????
when i open internet explorer on my kjam it says "page not found"
is it that difficult for you guys,
no one have gone through this before??
Got mine today. Problems so far....
Did the same old trick with a new phone - copied contacts to sim, insert Sim in X1 and then copy them to 'contacts;. I now have duplicate names. How do I delete the SIM copy, OR just use the Phone copy. I am a Nokia girl and am struggling big time to find out how you can chose between the two.
Secondly, I have a TOMTOM 700 go. Tried to pair them tonight. Got a DUN incompatible message from TOMTOM for Traffic etc. HELP. How can I get them to talk to each other so I can use my paid for subscriptions.
Thirdly, I have a VISEOo blue tooth gizmo in my car. Is this going to work with the X1. There are all sorts of connectivity and I'm not sure which to chose.
guess i can help with the first one, install the XperiaTweak v1.6 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=440035
Main>disable Show SIM-contacts in contact list
Done
have you tried the internet sharing program? Are you trying to pair the 700 through bluetooth?
there's also some apps around, some free some paid that enable a win mobile device to act as a wifi router if that's any use.

Yes I am trying to pair the 700 Go with bluetooth. How can I get round this - not sure how to enable the X1 as a wifi router? Not terribly technical!

okay can you run through how you're trying to pair them and we can see where you're going wrong.

I deleted my successful connection,that wouldn't allow me to use the Plus services to try and replicate what goes on.
I go to Manage Phones on the Tomtom. It searches and finds the phone finds the phone. The phone then tells me that TOMTOM wants to connect to my phone & asks me to add it to my device list. It then asks for the 0000 code which I input - I normally have to repeat this a few times at 40%. Finally got there to get this message on the TOMTOM
"This phone does not report wireless data connection (DUN) capabilities. TomTom Plus services cannot be used with this phone"
On my TomTOm now it says that all plus services 'are not supported'
Help!
ANYONE?
Just read this in the manual .....
"When your MDA Compact IV is connected via ActiveSync and your PC is connected tothe Internet, you can browse the Internet, retrieve Outlook emails and also use or update some of the applications that require an Internet connection - and all of it straight from your phone (e.g. you can update Weather or QuickGPS, or use Google Maps)"
Anyone know how I do this - have been trying to figure it out ... but in vain
Just worked it out ....
so... ??
I mean, this is a forum.
I'm sure, there are hundreds of geeks out there, who havn't figured out.
SHARE YOUR KNOWLEDGE !!
Explain, what you did, what happened, how you solved..
cheers

Hi guys,
first off - sorry I didn't post my solution earlier - and thanks to jackwidu for pointing out the error of my ways
I connect to my pc using Activesync Version 4.5.0. When connected through activesync, I was unable to (and also unaware that I could) connect my diamond to the pc's internet connection. I recent read that this was possible in the user manual and at first despite trying all different settings, still failed to do so.
Eventually, as in many microsoft cases, I uninstalled activesync and reinstalled and hey presto, was able to access the internet through my pc
Not sure if this will work for everyone but interested to find out if it does ....
good luck guys
