The Hermes doesn't support PAN due to its wretched MS BT stack, so how can I share my gprs connection through bluetooth? If impossible, how to share it through usb?
Best regards Johan
Hi, theres an app called PDANet, I use it to connect via usb, but it also is supposed to work over bluetooth and even bluetooth to a mac and share the connection, also you don't have to disable active sync if you use usb to connect to a windows machine
Just create a connexion using bluetooth modem and dialing *99#
Using a modem connection I only get a 633 error, cannot open com port, in windows the modem is set to use COM4, but I only have a incoming com at port 9. I don't know how to fix this, will try pdanet.
I use a widcomm stack on my HP laptop and it works flawlessly; I just had to pair with my tytn and the software automaticely created a generic bluetooth connexion and a generic bluetooth driver. There is only a little trick there; if I start the connexion through windows it won't work; I have to fire it from my bluetooth manager, which realy connect through my phone.

Please excuse my ignorance on all this but i'm a new user. I am trying to get activesync working over bluetooth. My bluetooth on pc does not have activesync profile or service. Does anyone know how I can do this?
Or can someone just provide a link where I can find out how this works? Thanks
Ok I found the instructions on myxda2 web site.
But looks like I'll have to esablish a cable usb connection before i can configure the activesync for bluetooth.
If the Bluetooth on your PC does not have the ActiveSync profile, then use the Serial Port profile and set up ActiveSync to allow connection from the serial port created by the Bluetooth driver. Then pair your XDA II's Bluetooth with your PC's Bluetooth. After that, launch ActiveSync on your XDA II and select "Tools->Connect via Bluetooth..." on the menu. Your XDA II should then sync with your desktop PC.
go to this site download the BTtools, it will fix bt problem

I'm able to sync via Bluetooth. But I have to initiate the connection from my XDA II. Start ActiveSync in XDA II, click "Tools", select "Connect via Bluetooth". Is there a way to initiate the connection from PC ActiveSync?
BT ActiveSync
I don't personally think there is a way to do this unless you take remote control of your pocketpc from the pc. What I have also found is that the Bluetooth is very shaky when anything other than small data transfers are concerned e.g. if you try to surf to a web page with loads of images or you have quite a few pages in AvantGo, the BT connection will be dropped. It is far from ideal...
I have had zero success in synching by bluetooth, all I can do is beam files to the pc via bluetooth, I also cannot browse my xda2 from the bluetooth desktop.

You need to create a virtual serial port using the Bluetooth software on your desktop PC. Then set the Connection Settings on ActiveSync to allow connection from the serial port you just created. If your Bluetooth software has an ActiveSync profile, it will do all this for you automatically. Otherwise, you need to use the Serial Port profile.
You can browse your XDA II through ActiveSync. Just select the Explore command.
how to control the assigned com port
the bluetooth software on the desktop insists on setting the com ports as com10 or higher...I read somewhere that activesync does not recognize com port higher than 9.
I re-installed the drivers several times....and it only allows for com 10...and of course activesync does not recognize that as an available port to connect to!!
any thoughts??
setup:
Widcom 1.4.2 bluetooth driver on win XP Pro
Epox USB dongle
Activesync 3.7.1
I am using the same software but it always offers com3 or com4 which works fine, if you right click on the bluetooth desktop serial port profile does it not give you an choice under "properties"? I have worked out how to do most things now but I am struggling with my laptop with bt dongle trying to browse the web through sharing, I know the settings are correct but it just wont let me through, I have a full network access running and can access files etc but no internet on laptop. :?

On the pda instead it find this: 1 Headset, 2 Serial port, Dialup Networking, Wireless Stereo and that all.
Should it show as well the Obex Object Push on the pda??
I've got the tick in receive all beam file in the infrared menu.

Hi,
got the same problem with that ugly bluesoleil bluetooth stack; cause I'm running WM6 I had the choice of Com0-Com9, but that bluesoleil stack only delivers com-ports starting from Com11. The Windows Bluetooth stack wasn't available.
Workarounds didn't work. At last I got two correspondending COM Ports but the Connection with Activesync was disabled after a short while.
So I will buy another Bluetooth stick which uses Windows or Widcomm Bluetooth Stack.
So long

I succed to connect via bluetooth with WM6. I use windcomm bluetooth donggle in my PC. When I install the driver,which came with the donggle, the problem begin. I cannot connect my Hima to the PC. Then I delete the driver from windcomm and use only the driver from windows XP sp2.
1. Turn on the bluetooh from your PDA so that your pc can recognize your hima
2. explore your bluetooth connection on your pc, make your incoming port, and remember the port which automatically provide by the pc.
3. Open your active sync from your pc, open the connectio setting. Checkbox the "allow connections to one of the following" anda chose the port that you have just made in steps 2. And press ok
4. Open active sync, and from menu press connect via bluetooth. If your device haven't paired yet, then the next step to make pairing as usual
5. After you finish pairing step, you are ready to sync via bluetooth
Hi,
my Idea is to use Bluetooth inside of Wifi to connect at home my Trinity on Internet sharing on my PC.
So I have a BT dongle which purpose an PAN network via bluetooth for my Trinity but when I want to enable this connection from my PC, it's not possible. From Trinity, I don't find where I can do it. It's like if the Trinity was not enable to create this type of connection.
Trinity: Faman WM6 4.03 fr
In the BT properties, where you can find which device is linked via BT, when I select my PC, I don't see the option PAN Network. WHY ?
I found the properties to configure the IP address of my bluetooth PAN.
PC: win XP Pro sp2
dongle BT: wirdcomm
So if someone can help me to create this network and to be always connected at home on Internet over BT without losing my battery in one day !
Thank's
