EDIT Help please... Bluetooth half-gone

Here goes.
I bought a Magician a few months back. Hated the lack of space but liked the Bluetooth functionality. I could connect wirelessly around the house no problem. Sending/receiving files to/from anyone with a Bluetooth device.
Decided to proceed with BigStorage ROM Flash. Flash succesful. Enjoyed adequate space. Hated Bluetooth. I tried to get some help in this forum but the help extended wasn't exactly too successful. I was missing the [`Bluetooth] option in ActiveSync [a registry key I believe], and I couldn't send/receive files. I decided to give up on it until I had enough time to retrieve the registry key by reflashing with shipped ROM and flashing back to BigStorage.
I found the time to do it last week. Flashed and reflashed several times [every single attempt was successful], checking and rechecking for the Bluetooth registry keys. Yet I couldn't find them.
My Magician can still detect Bluetooth devices so I'm sure the hardware isn't busted. But I can't even transfer files using Bluetooth. Tried installing that Bluetooth Stack from http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33532. Added some new features, but functionality is as stated in this paragraph.
Help? ::crycry:: hahahaha
I am now totally clueless as to how to go about this predicament..
EDIT
I've recently did the BigStorage ROM on my Magician. And everything was just peachy. Up until I tried to sync my Magician to the PC via Bluetooth.
Before I did the ROM patch, I was able to sync my unit through Bluetooth after some few hours of tweaking my system. But after I did the patch, I tried to sync it again through Bluetooth. My PC was waiting for the Magician but the unit kept disconnecting itself.
I ran Activesync on the Magician, went to its settings, and the Bluetooth option was gone. Only `USB was left along with some numbers (baud rates?), when previously it had `Bluetooth as well.
I'm sure Bluetooth works (as I've installed the CAB associated with it from the ExtRom) on the unit since it can make a device pairing and ask for a passkey and all that, but syncing through Bluetooth doesn't work anymore.
Could anyone shed some light on this for me?

try pairing your device to the pc! make sure that ur pc is not listed on the magician paired devices, activate the pairing from the magician through bluetooth under settings system tab through "Bluetooth ActiveSync Setup" and go from there.
let me know how you go!

errr.. ok i tried what you suggested. and i'm starting to wonder..
now my device can't see and can't be seen. i can't make a pair anymore even from the pc. my unit says 'no new devices found' yet my pc is discoverable.
broken bluetooth radio maybe (but it was working before the patch...)? or could it be a cab file i missed?

Hi i'm only new myself but you could try a soft reset then retry pairing your device, or a hard reset and see if the bluetooth works then? or maybe even try the cab file on
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33532
I have found that worst case senario a hard reset and look for the right bluetooth cab to install from the ext rom.
run a search on this site for ext rom and look for the post with details about each of the seperate files and what they do!
*Edit* i did a quick search and i wasnt able to find anything in the ext rom that applies to bluetooth setup or settings! so i guess a hard reset maybe the best way to find out whether is software or hardware?!!
Maybe one of the more experienced guys on this site might be able to help you further.
Hope this helps a little

thanks for your time boh113. i can still sync through the USB port so i guess bluetooth will have to wait. i just use it for wireless internet around the house when i'm not at the pc anyway.
i might try the hard reset when i have more time to tinker with the magician. but in any case, i'd like to thank you for trying to help

just an update in case somebody can help
i managed to pair my device with the pc already. but i still can't connect via bluetooth in the magician's async.

ok i found something in my registry pertaining to my problem. although i'm not sure how to fix it.
in the magician's async, under tools -> options -> PC -> options, there's a drop-down list for PC synchronization options:
`115200 Default
`19200 Default
`38400 Default
`57600 Default
`USB
there was a `Bluetooth option included at the end of the list before i did the bigstorage ROM.
going back to the registry, i found the keys to this list (although i'm not entirely sure if these are correct, but these are the only ones on my list)
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Comm\RasBook\`115200 Default
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Comm\RasBook\`19200 Default
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Comm\RasBook\`38400 Default
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Comm\RasBook\`57600 Default
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Comm\RasBook\`USB
and to what i can see, HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Comm\RasBook\`Bluetooth doesn't exist. there are a whole lot of hex values under these keys and i'm not sure what they are for.
although if somebody could post/upload the `Bluetooth key from their device, i'd be grateful.
i'm aware that the hex values are also based upon hardware but i'm willing to try it out.

Ok i can find what your talking about but i dont have the ability to copy and paste the registry entry anywhere?!
if you can tell me how to get hold of this for you i'd be happy to help anyway i can!

most registry editors have the capability for exporting specific keys up to whole trees. perhaps if you have resco explorer and the registry add-on. or some other software similar to it. tap-hold and export?
thanks

I have resco explorer and the registry add-on but i cant find anyway to export the registry file?!
There's an option for import but thats it, also there's an option to copy but all it allows you to do is copy and past within the registry itself!
unfortunately i dont have the technical experience to do much ore tha n this, a quick guide as to which program to use and how to do it and i would be more than happy to help!

oh ok. open up resco explorer or the registry add-on. then navigate your way to this folder:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Comm\RasBook
there should be a \`Bluetooth\ folder within \RasBook\ what you do is tap-and-hold on that (`Bluetooth) folder until you see the drop down text list. "Export..." should be one of the options then you can specify where to put it. by default resco places it in the main memory
will wait thanks boh113

No worries found it and exported for your satisfaction!
Had to zip it ;D
hope this can help you further!
Goodluck

Much appreciated!!
Will try it out in a bit. I'll post my results after
Thanks boh113!

well, i got back the `Bluetooth option in async. but still doesn't want to connect to the pc. the hex values probably don't match the hardware in my unit. oh well. i'll test it out a couple more hours. and if i still don't get it to work, a hard reset might be my only solution. or re-flash with my original rom and start all over again. hahahaha
thanks for your help and time boh113. forgive me for having taken too much of it

No worries, sorry i couldnt have been of more help!
Good luck with it all!

Internet sharing on WM5 with Wifi and proxy

HTTPSnoopProxy.class file, copy it to, say, the root of your "access point" Pocket PC and get a decent Java Virtual Machine (I recommend CrEme 4.00 because of its superior speed, reliability and moderate memory consumption).
Install CrEme on the device that you would like to act as the Bluetooth Access Point. Then, on the same PDA, write a link file that invokes CrEme on HTTPSnoopProxy.class.
The link file will be, assuming you install CrEme in the main memory, as follows:
255#"\Windows\creme\bin\CrEme.exe" -Ob -classpath \ HTTPSnoopProxy 8080
To make your life easier, I've uploaded an example file here – you only need to put it in, say, \Windows\Start Menu\Programs so that it's easily accessible. It, again, assumes that CrEme 4.00 is installed into main memory and HTTPSnoopProxy.class is copied to the root directory of your PDA. If not, you must modify either the path to CrEme.exe or the parameter of -classpath.
Then, just set up a Bluetooth PAN network and find out the IP address of the "server" (the "Access point") PDA

using the HTC_PCM_Routing dll and is now using a custom dll. By using a custom dll I have complete control over the processing and can pass the multiple IO control calls need to get the audio routed. You may notice a funny icon in the phone app while audio is routed, I think this is tty mode (not sure), but, it works to do what I needed. Also, I have not messed with Voice Command activation yet, but, I do think that should be possible. I have not hard-reset tested this cab so please let me know if there are any issues. I also moved serial5 to serial9, so you may have to manually delete the serial 5 driver keys. After installing the cab if it does not work correctly, make sure the widcomm/plugins/handsfree/audiosetupdll says SD_PCM_ROUTING.dll
I'll also attach that dll separately for those who just want to replace the key and dll.
One note, the audio routing is full time, once activated all audio all the time will be routed.

I found The fluxist WiFi Hack -
These instructions will allow you to connect to the Internet connection on your Hermes via WiFi. Essentially, you will be turning your Hermes into a WiFi access point.
Click to expand...

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_accesspoint
So I wondered if The fluxist WiFi Hack could work with the proxy not sure how best to proceed.
Is it better to run the proxy and install the widcomm stack
or try to adapt the fluxist WiFi Hack to work with the proxy
or just to give up and wait until I falsh wm6 (i'd rather not go this way)
Can anyone provide a step by step on getting this to work?

First, do you want to share your Wi-Fi or GPRS connection? It's only in the former case that you'd need the first (Java) app; with the latter case, go for the "hacked" one.

Thanks - i like to share my 3G/Gprs with my laptop ideally.
I'm guessing that I still need the proxy as I have a rom without ICS built in

WIFI to Bluetooth
First of all please don't mind my simple English.
I want to know if it's possible to do something similar.
Except:
My Device(HTC Wizard WM6) is connected to Wifi accespoint or using Desktop internet from USB.
can I share this connection over Bluetooth?
so my other mobile can use Wizards internet.
Internet from as desktop --> HTC Wizard --> BT on other mobile.
or
Wifi Accesspoint --> HTC Wizard --> BT on other mobile.
thnx.

How to forbid *.exe & *.cab installing in WM6

Hello All,
I want to make some application for PPC's under WM6 that restrict users from installation any software on PPC.
Does somebody faced with this?
I was looking for some tweakers or smth, to look how it gonna be, but nothing found for WM6.
I was looking for some registry hacks, but no luck.
Any ideas are welcome.
Cheers.

what a thread, so this could help:
1. dont give it to your brother,
2. ask your daddy to buy him his own ppc
3. make a backup
4. give the mio to your mom and go back to kindergarden
5.and just open a thread on a developers side if you have something usefull.
hope i could help you

Well I can see this being as the device used for demonstration purpose and OP wants to forbid people from messing it up.
One thing I can think of is to make the windows folder and registry files "read-only" so no other things can be added or used on the phone, after configure the phone the way you wanted.

I'm sure its possible, as a Exchange Activesync security policy.

Forbidding an EXE from installing would also prevent EXE's from running. Thus rendering everything on the device inopperable.
Preventing CAB files from running though, should just be a matter of altering the registry and what the associated actions for CAB files are.
look in \HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\cabfile\Shell\Open\Command\
The default string value is wceload.exe "%1" /XXXXXX (XXXXX can be a value of either /delete or /nodelete)
Anyway breaking this string will prevent cab's from installing.
The only other method of doing something like you want, that I can come up with at the moment, would be to create an app that either runs at startup or as a service. It's function would be as suggested above would be to restrict new files from being created in specified storage/registry locations.
I say NEW files as you would not want to restrict modification of existing files in those locations otherwise you risk breaking functionality of pre installed apps.

Bluetooth Name Change Software

Here you will find a little tool to change your Device's Bluetooth name without going to the registry yourself.
http://gbit.ath.cx
It's free and more apps will be released.

Thanks. This is exactly the type of thing I could use.

Would it be possible to make a program to toggle on/off the "Wireless Stereo" and/or "Hands Free" services for a particular Bluetooth device automatically.
I created the attached Mortscript file to do it, but it is very slow and cumbersome. I use this to allow me to switch from my Plantronics headset to my JVC radio when I am in my car. The SendKeys("Settings","2") line in the mortscript code is used to pick the headset named 260Plantronics in my bluetooth devices list. I thought you could make it use a parameter to pass the device name to the program, so any device may be chosen. I use the registry reading part of Battery Status to show me if the headset service is enabled or not.
The registry keys for the devices is under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Device\???????????\Services\????????\enabled, where the first set of ?s is the device and the second set of ?s is the service. I tried changing the registry keys with mortscript but it doesn't affect the actual settings in the setting menu and the Plantronics is still connected. Even after a soft reset the Plantronics will still be connected even though the registry keys show 0 and the settings items are unchecked.
Code:
iscar=RegRead("HKLM","\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Device\000389c44266\Services\0000111e-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb\","enabled")
Run("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Tools\BlueSet.lnk")
WaitFor("Settings",10)
SendKeys("Settings","2")
Sleep(500)
SendCR("Settings")
Sleep(500)
MouseClick("Settings",17,109)
MouseClick("Settings",17,127)
Sleep(500)
MouseClick("Settings",195,308)
Sleep(500)
Close("Settings")
Exit

installation folder
i have eten glofiish m700 with WM6.1
i installed the CAB & it created a new folder on the main memory called \pogram files%provider% with the BlueName folder inside it
i believe it should have created the BlueName folder inside the original main program files folder, so i did a copy & paste of the BlueName there
It works fine & nice & light software..does exactly what it should do ... but i wanted to mention the "folder" destination error to you
Thanks again for the nice cab

ok, thanks i will check the installation and upp a correct one.

[SOLVED] Programs "Start Menu" from imported ROM

I hate to ask on here because I feel like the answer should be obvious but it hasnt been.
I imported the latest AT&T ROM for the Tilt 2 in to OSKitchen and have been customizing/modding the heck out of it. Added my own software, removed most of the AT&T crap. Changed SYS to 21916 and even 2019 Manila without difficulty.
What is stumping me? The stupid default shortcuts for things like ActiveSync or email setup , remote destop Windows Live etc...
Most apps I have changed the app.dat to modify location for most things that I kept. However I have searched in both sys and EXT for prov.xml files, reg files basically ALL file contents looking for the likes of the apps above and just CANT find reference to them.
Is there some default behavior that says if a .lnk file exists in windows make a shortcut in the root of "Programs" ? or what am I missing. (Even that doesnt hold water though because activesync is actually async.lnk.
I know I can use something like mortscript to just move them around but this is more about wanting to know what the heck I seem to be missing. Thanks in advance and hopefully this isnt a stupid question.

Try look in the initflashfiles.dat file.

Lol sure enough. More proof positive that Win7 search is garbage. I had it search file contents but for whatever reason it didnt find those shortcuts because it didnt search that file and it is indexed.

You can change the name of the actual .lnk then using an app.dat rename it and place it in where you'd like. I was having this problem with WM Live so I renamed the actual "WLMLauncher.lnk" to "_WLMLauncher.lnk" and then added this line:
Code:
Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Internet"):-File("Windows Live.lnk","\Windows\_WLMLauncher.lnk")
to an app.dat in the Start Menu section of my kitchen.
This way whatever is natively calling that link won't be able to recognize it anymore.
If you're simply having trouble finding all the .lnks, just search your SYS XXXXX directory for ".lnk" and that should pull up all the async and email links that you're having trouble with.
