Hi guys,
I am trying now for days to sat up a bluetooth-connection, so to get ActiveSync to work with my TYTN/ O² XDA Trion, but somehow it doesn´t work.
My Sony SZ-250C /P uses a Toshiba BT-Stack.
Might that be the problem?
The Stack notices the O² XDA Trion as a modem, I can connect it via a COM-Port, too, means I can send stuff, but ActiveSync doesn´t work.
Actually the O² XDA Trion has only two free ports?
Port 0 and 9?
That are the only ones I can select in the Receiving and sending Ports (dunno the right name for your english device) and the don´t get noticed by ActiveSync. Those ports are also added by me in the Port-List of the Toshiba Stack.
Does anybody have an idea?
It would be really appreciated. :wink:
Same problem with bluetooth
Hello, I have the same problem. I could do it only one time, but after or the TYTN find only a com port and not an activesync server, or the connection do not work at all
did you find a solution ??
regards

I have a Sony Vaio which has built in bluetooth. When I pair the XDA2 with it, it can not see any serial profile on the XDA2. Also the BT implementation of Microsoft on the XDA2 does not do much as well. The pairing of the machines from XDA2 gives you the message that it's ready for activesync via bluetooth but that's BS. When you choose activesync via bluetooth from the XDA2, my VAIO shows an instant try of serial connection between the devices but it does not stay there.
The bluetooth implementation on the VAIO is also Microsoft BT stack and it sees the XDA2 as a DUN device, which installs a modem at port 10 to use the XDA2 as a modem. So some part of this works, except the activesync.
Any help would be appreciated.
Also, I have contacted NAVMAN GPS in Europe and they have confirmed that they just sent an XDA2 to New Zealand to their developers to find a solution for the strange pairing problem (NAVMAN GPS only accepts "NAVMAN" as the pairing PIN but you can only enter numbers at the XDA2 pairing software)
I have exactly the same problem as you with my Sony VAIO Z1 SP laptop. I have posted a separate thread but so far no-one has been able to get my bluetooth activesync working. Have you had any luck yet?
No not yet, I've downloaded sony's updates for bluetooth from www.vaio-link.com, but it didn't help the problem. I'll keep on working on this, let me know if you have a solution.
I had a similar problem with a Tosh laptop, but after upgrading to the latest stack was okay. Although I still couldnt configure from the tosh laptop (no serial port recognised), when following the instructions within the bluetooth HOWTO on the o2 website it worked fine

Seems to work okay to other people I've suggested it to as well who were having trouble

Uninstall Bluespace NE and use a Widcomm-BT Stack instead. Works fine with my MDA II (Towa Pocket Bluetooth Tools installed) and Sony Vaio PCG-Z1RSP.
You have to edit btwusb.inf before installing the Widcomm-Stack:
[WIDCOMM]
%SONYZ1.DeviceDesc%=BTWUSB, USB\VID_044e&PID_3003 ; SONY VAIO VID&PID
[strings]
SONYZ1.DeviceDesc="Sony VAIO Z1 Bluetooth Device"
How can you download the WidComm stack. Can this stack also be used on a Toshiba Satelite Pro m10. i have troubles with the toshiba bluetooth stack..

Should work if the internal transceiver is also manufactured by Cambridge Silicon Radio (CSR).
For instructions on installing different versions of the WidComm BT-stack,[includig the Dell one] have a look at this forum
http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/forumdisplay.php?f=231
You can also look at this page for a step by step guide (not verified - "never touch a running system"):
http://www.jonscaife.com/
I had problems using activesync via bluetooth with a cheap class 1 dongle (Microtune I think) but managed to get it working by installing the Pocket Bluetooth stuff from the links in other threads (german internet site) and by following the instructions at http://www.jonscaife.com/ and installing the Widcomm stack linked from there (1.4.something I think) rather than the one that came with my dongle (1.3.2.7 I think).
Everything now works a treat - thanks Slartibartfass for the link - saved my hair from being pulled out.

I just found an easy solution for u guys who using Toshiba Bluetooth Stack ...
U guys no need to remove anything ...
All u need to do is verify the COM port of ur bluetooth ...
1. Go to the “Bluetooth Local COM” Applet in your Control Panel
2.Open “Bluetooth Local COM” applet where you will see a list of Ports
3. The Corerct port you need to use is
“COM7 Toshiba BT Port (COM7) LocalCOM-Server[SerialPort(TOSHIBA LocalCOM)]
and not “COM6 Toshiba BT Port (COM6) LocalCOM-Client”
From this guy here ... << http://thinkabdul.com/2006/10/12/tu...c-via-bluetooth-with-toshiba-bluetooth-stack/ >> TQ sir ...
Then ... u guys need to use ur REGEDIT to find this ...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services
Notice there is SerialPort ?? yes ... JUST CHANGE THE string 'Bluetooth' to COM7 ...
After this just pair ur wat ever PDA u've got & thats it ... u got the ACTIVESYNC in the advance option of the services available ...
Hope u guys enjoy !!!
I recently got a Bluetooth dongle for my PC but can't get my XDA-II to use any of the services !
When I select ActiveSync and the Sync with Bluetooth I get
'Cannot start communications with the desktop computer. The communications prt is not available. Another program may be using the port, or it may not be valid.
Quit any programs that may be using the port and reconnect. If the problem persists, restart your device using the instructions provided by the manufacturer.'
When I choose Bluetooth settings and select 'Bluetooth ActiveSync Setup'->Start on the XDA II I get 'Please bond with other Bluetooth device which supports serial port or ActiveSync profile as your ActiveSync partner !
The PC has the ActiveSync service enabled and I am now stuck. Please help.
Try this utility.

Install it, do a soft reset. Delete previous BT connection and find again.
you should get an option to sync on your XDA II with the specific computer.

ActiveSync Via Bluetooth with Troy Windport
Have tried all suggestiosn including http://bluetooth.i-networx.de/index_e.html
Activesync starts to connect an then drops the connection
Have w2k, ActiveSync 3.7.1 and TRoy Windport bluetooth PCMCIA card, XDA II with Latest 6.10.50 upgrade
Only option left is to change/upgrade operating system to XP which I do not want to do.
Anybody got a better idea?
Thanks

try following this tutorial at geekzone
http://www.geekzone.co.nz/content.asp?contentid=2417
try to turn off infrared communication on ppc.
try to delete all bounded devices both pc and xda.
try to search for a bt device again.
You have to follow the above mentioned procedure. After that you start to search the device with ActiveSync.
ActiveSync will start to check all the serial ports, one port before it comes to the port that is used by your BT stack, you should start ActiveSync via BT on your XDAII.
This is the only way (for me) to get that crap working. After the XDAII and the computer have found each other, future syncs via BT are no (or at least not a big) problem. If the XDAII and the computer sometimes dot not find each other, try to sync 2-3 times, it will hopefully work then. Sometimes there seems a kind of timeout error.
I don't use BT anymore 'cause it is really a hard job to get it running. Even when I managed to establish the connection, after some days the connection gets lost again and can only be repaired by re-installing the BT stack or ActiveSync - I am really tired of beta testing all the bluetooth stacks and stopped to use it until the industry established a working standard...
I try a lot of time after install Tobias application for BT, but I can not see the new dialog after pair my XDA II with PC. Someone help me!
I had the exact same experience. I have not sorted out my the BT problems yet but suffered also from the interrupted connection using the cradle until I disabled Norton anti-virus and firewall.
HELP!
No connection possible between my PC and MDA-II.
Bluetooth Devices program in Windows XP SP2 comes up with "incoming port: 17", while ActivSync seraches only ports 1 to 9.
How can I make them listen to the same port?

On MDA-II I didnt change anything. I use the same drivers as provided within ROM 1.72.
Hi,
I'm trying to share my GPRS connection with my friend who has the IPAQ 1940. I'd like to use the Bluetooth connection.
I am using the BluetoothGPS.zip bluetooth stack which is basically the IPAQ one.
Can I just initate a SSA connection on the IPAQ and it'll automatically dial on mine?
To share Xda II intenet access to group of ppc or PC, I use pocketpcproxy (I named it ).
But that program are not perfected yet. If you are interesting, please check at http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=72
or http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/default.asp :wink:
Thanks, that's what i'm looking for...
BUT I noticed that the Widcomm bluetooth hacked drivers cause a lot of problems with the Pocket PC... Once you install that, your regular bluetooth gets messed up.
Also, you cannot use the Widcomm for SSA.
I'll email him anyway, thanks
Hi,
I hope I am posting in the right forum, but I didn't find a forum for the Charmer (MDA Compact II) PDA phone. So, I am posting here, because I noticed that there are many threads here about Charmer, but If there is any place where my problem fits better, please inform me about it.
So, is there any way to set up a wireless TCP/IP network between PC and Charmer (obviously, over bluetooth, Charmer doesn't have Wifi)? After 2 days of massive googleing and reading various threads, I figured out that my Charmer shipped with microsoft bt stack, witch is not support PAN. On the Magician, there is a solution, it is possible to replace the bt stack with another one, or expand the functionality (I don't know too much about the technical details) to support PAN. On the Prophet, the problem easily can be solved with Wifi.
But what about the Charmer? I cannot find any working hack to replace the bt stack.
Activesync works over bt, but there is no TCP/IP. If connect through USB cable, TCP/IP network appears.
I'm really disappointed, and plan to sell my 1 week old Charmer because of this problem. Any comments, tips or tricks are welcome.
Thanks in advance
go into my network places, view network connections. you should be able to use the 'bluetooth network connection' to establish a network between the two but ive just tried it on mine and it doesnt work, guess the charmers stack doesnt support it. i know this is the right way to go about doing it as i can set up a network between my pc and laptop.
Yap dave, I did exactly the same, under network connections/bluetooth network connection I cannot add my ppc, becouse it says that it doesn't support PAN. That's why I need to replace the ms bt stack, wich is a garbage. As I figured out the last days, nobody have succesfully did this scenario yet.
Any solution?
I still don't have the solution for replace the BT stack on Charmer which supports PAN.
Any ideas?
When you connect to PC via ActiveSync (via Bluetooth) your ppc got address 192.168.55.101 and pc got address: 192.168.55.100
Hi guys.
Does anybody have any idea why i can't connect mda I a XDA ORBIT via BT? I tried to send a file via BT a few times, but no succes.
BTW SW and then HW done on each.
There's no other problem to connect MDA I with another pda or mobile.
It might be something wrong with XDA.
Maybe new BT patch needed.
XDA ORBIT ROM 1.25.206.2
Any Ideas?
Thanx
what BT stack are you using?
I didn't change anything, 'cause i've got it 2 days, so it's MS stack yet...
Btw I tried to send a file from XDA and with no problems.It means i can't receive files...Pairing works with no problem, even with BT Headset...
