XDA 2, Bluetooth, Activesync Passthrough - so close !

Hi,
I have an XDA 2 (Rom 1.72 - the o2 standard one)
I am using the standard MS BT stack on the XDA
On my PC (Windows XP SP2) I have a Tecom BT3030 using the WIDCOM 1.3.2.7 stack.
Activesync (3.8) via bluetooth works perfectly (hurah!)
I can also get onto IRC, MSN and the web via the XDA when the Activesync connection is established.
However,
If I set activesync pass-through to "Work" I can only access my LAN.
If I set it to "The Internet" then I can only access the internet.
Trouble is.... I need both :wink:
Is there a way of forcing activesync on the PC to let me use both, or a way of forcing it to give me an IP from my LAN ?
I have a router on my LAN, that uses DHCP.
Ideally, I want my XDA to get an IP address on the LAN, that would be perfect, since I would then be able to use it just like any other network device.
From what I have read, the WIDCOM stack on the XDA help me solve the problem.
I downloaded one from here named BluetoothGPS which I installed. I must say, I didn't get anywhere with it (I hard to hard reset ). Although that was before I had all this working with the MS stack, so maybe I should have another go.
Thanks

To answer my own question, I didn't get anywhere with "make activesync use both network and internet" plan so I did the following:
Flashed up to the finalzero wn2003se release
Installed the widcomm 1.5.0.0801 stack on it.
Stayed with the Widcomm 1.3.2.7 stack on my pc.
Played around for a while and now Activesync works via BT, as does PAN (which is exactly what I was aiming for)

internet over bluetooth

can sumone please help i have sucessfuly set up activesync and it works fine however the internet does not.i tried usin the guide on this website but when i go to network cards the 1 that this guide ttells me to use does not exist in me ppc please help.thanx
im using a blue angel with wm5

i beleive the guide is only for bluetooth stacks which have PEN
if you use the ms bluetooth stack you dont have PEN
if you are connected to activesync using bluetooth and have choosen the my network as internet connection in connections in system
and your firewall is not blocking
you should be on the internet

thanx i will try

Internet Sharing Via USB Problem

I am been reading all the related Theads I could.
When I activate Internet Sharing and connect via USB my PC searches for an IP over then finally fails with and tells me "Limited or No connectivity"
I'm running AS 4.5, XMXL v0.20, XP x64.
I tried With AS on, with AS disconnected, Disabling USB.
Everything has the same results...
Did I miss something???
Thanks,
-J

disabling HSDPA did the trick for me...
when enabled got the same error..
first time i tried on laptop with it disabled it went through

I used HTweak to disable it..
Same thing.. It tries to aquire a network address then times out..

Disable bluetooth then it will work. The BT stack on WM6 seems to not let the DHCP service work on USB when its enabled.
edit: not sure if this is deliberate or not. I'm a bit bummed by it b/c before when using the AKU3.3 Cingi ROM (which didn't have this ideosyncracy) I could talk on the phone using my BT headset while surfing over USB tether.

Son of a ........
That did it..
I would have never guessed BT was the issue..
In fact I would have kept on screwing with it..
I even copied the old Wireless Modem app.. was going to try and get that working..
Any way to use the BT stack from the AKU 3.3 rom?
What about the Widcomm Stack?
What is the issue with BT and Internet Sharing with this rom?

hmm this is veryvvery wierd..
I have bluethooth enabled and connect just fine, but if i enable HSDPA i just time out not getting network address.
Btw using XDA live 0.2.1

I dont know if this may help, but it worked for me.
On your phone connection settings if you assign the dns servers rather than using the server-assigned ones, the computer seems to make a connection without timing-out.
The dns settings i'm currently using are:
4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2
PS
Im on t-mobile uk and the HSDPA connection seems more stable with these settings.

Anyone try the Widcomm Stack on WM XDA Live v0.2?

RESOLVED: Bluetooth PAN Internet Sharing question

I'm not sure if I'm the only daft bat that does this. But in the past i would use my Hermes under wm6 as a Bluetooth Pan Internet sharing connection with my BA as it had the ability to either Host or establish a Bluetooht PAN link.
Since i've upgraded the BA to Wm6 I've noticed that as with my hermes the betowrk options are severly depreciated. and now when i search for Bluetooth services on the hermes it only shows Dial up networking but doesn't give you the option of Bluetooth PAN as a service it can find or give. also Can not set the init string to send to Bluetooth modem if choosen. thusly cannot tell it the access point etc.etc.
Is there any advise possible to help me link the BA with my hermes using Bluetooth PAN for the internet sharing through the hermes ( yea i know but HSDPA is far faster then the BA's basic 3g hehehe)
RESOLVED: the problem is in the Bluetooth stack of this rom. in short the Wm6 rom appearantly can't find a PAN connection at all as I tried to find the one on my PC at home and it definatly didnt' show anything accept a serial port. However my hermes could see the personal network conenction and once reflashed to the t-mobile latest rom it can now establish a PAN network conenction with pc or hermes300.
guess the bluetooth profiles in the rom for the BA in wm6 are a bit lacking at moment

It works great in Vista
Hi,
My Vista has automatically recognized my Hermes. No need to define a modem or connection string. Just run the Internet Sharing on Hermes and then it is seen in Networks and Sharing Cetner. I just open my IE and it works.

cool, only problem here is that my Hermes 300 ( t-mobile vario II) using Schaps 3.54c Wm6 Rom has the bluetooth Pan driver for internet sharing, as well as the modem link yea? And the Blue angel now being Windows mobile 6 doesn't show like Wm2003 did. in Wm2003 you could create a Bluetooth Netowrk connection for PAN to the hermes. Or a bluetooth serial connection to the hermes Modem link. Now it only shows Dial up networking in both since they are both wm6. And also doesn't give you the option of an init string entry in the advance network options for the AT+CGD init string that also lists the part "ip", "general.t-mobile.uk" which is the access point when doing Bluetooth DUN.
How would i establish a PAN connection to the hermes Internet sharing with the BA under Wm6 from helmi is the real question?

Ok I can assume then nobody else has 2 windows mobile 6 devices and tries to have one work via the other or nobody other then me has tried this.
Hermes300 windows mobile 6
Blue angel Helmi Windows mobile 6
cannot make a Pan connection in either direction Hermes to Blue angel, or Blue angel to hermes.
this means potentially people with Pda's ( ie: Compaq or HP Ipaq's runnign Wm6 ) or other mobile with wm6 will not be able to use the Helmi rom for internet sharing and really are better off leaving WM2003se on as has more compatability in that regard.
If however others have tried this and found a way to get it working please post =)

Me too

I have two WM5 devices and am having exactly the same problem! I always through DUN was simple enough, but I am not going to get in to a debate about it versus Internet Sharing BUT why the hell did MS remove the "client" functionality? It is all very well and good if your Internet Sharing device (i.e. WM5 or 6 phone) is going to be the "server" but what if it is the client (as many PDAs will be).
I see no way of doing it! Anyone?

you can still use the Modem link if you can get it to create a serial port bluetooth link , ie: pair the devices and select Serial Port. then under the connections then you would tell it to use Bluetooth Modem
and put in the advanced dialing string for bluetooth DUN.
there are a few threads about bluetooth DUN on this forum.
the only thing i can thnk of that would make this not work however is if the roms your using are cooked roms and the profiles in the bluetooth stack are missing on 1 or both for the features suggested.
this is what stopped me from having this work as the wm6 on the Hermes and on the Helmi rom are missing the profile for HOSTING a PAN directly without internet sharing and dont' offer bluetooth serial port as an option

Help with hermes and laptop internet

Yeah it's fairly simple. Make sure Activesync 4.5 is installed on your laptop (don't know if you need it if you use Vista)
Connect your laptop to the device with USB cable.
On your device start Internet Sharing (if it doesn't have it then you will need to install a ROM that does... pretty much all cooked ROMS do)
Then click connect... give it a few seconds and you should be able to connect to internet via your phone's internet connection
You can also do this via bluetooth. First go to Internet Sharing and instead of USB select 'Bluetooth PAN' in the drop down box
Click connect...
Then only your Laptop in Control Panel> Networks tell it to connect to Bluetooth Pan and you should be done.
You can even do this via Wifi but you need to get commerical software called WMWifiRouter

Cheers. I found that the bluetooth I was using was a little complicated. Ended up using an older stick and it works great. Thanks.
