O2 XDA II Mini is support Hands free profile

just wonder, is it not support 100% Hands free profile? But look at this article they can use Hands free function profile with Alfa X-Live Bluetooth Headset.
Sound interesting,

yes, it seems to be the same with the imate rom. But untill now there is nobody who wanted to dump his imate or O2 rom to test it :?

I can't seem to get the hands free working with my o2 XDA II mini, although it does say it is connected to a handsfree headset when it is boded with my Jabra 250.
Does someone want a dump of the ROM?
If so gimmie some instructions as long as it is not toooo destructive I'll give it a go

yes, please...

You can find the dumprom tool here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/DumpRom
or from http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/xda/dumprom.html
You can also export your registry using a trial copy of resco explorer (comes with resco registry tool) http://www.resco-net.com/explorer_dwn.asp
and put it here as well. I've come across tweaks in registry that might point to why it works for one version of OS and not the other.
Many thanks! :wink:

arrggghhh
O.K. I'm sorry it's Friday arvo and I must have my dumb swith invoked.
Bear with me I'm just an old dinosaur (I work with mainframes not PC's)
I own a full version of Resco and can see the registry but can't work out how to export it
I got a copy of dumprom.exe but not nkcompr.lib which it seems to need.
Also do I run this on the mini or on the PC it is synch'ed with.
Step by step me if you want...
Sorry for being sooooo dumb but I did try and work it out myself.
If you want to tell me I will do it for you.
Thanks

so do you want to give me a step by step or don't you need it anymore?

Been busy...

Sorry nossac,
Been really busy over the weekend. I realize that the utilities provided by the forum may not be updated for Magician. I had several frens of mine trying to use it, but facing technical problems.
I believe someone posted the chinese ROM in the FTP site. I think I shall use that version to check out the BT stack and SDBus support.
Many thanks for being proactive, but it's not within my means to support dumprom issues.
For resco registry, what you can do:
(a) download resco explorer (using previous URL link I've supplied)
(b) connect your Mini with the MS ActiveSync
(c) execute the resco explorer executable file
(d) Install all the software (explorer, registry, ftp etc)
(e) from the Today screen, goto Start/Programs/Resco Registry
(f) You should be in the Registry Editor screen.
(g) Highlight the topmost "My Registry"
(h) Tap and hold "My Registry", two options should be available to you.
(i) Select the "Export" option.
(j) You should come to the "Save file" screen.
(k) Name the registry file as "02 mini registry"
(l) Select the location to save the file to.
(m) Select the folder to save the file to.
Click on Save button. The software will proceed to export the registry to the file.
Once you have complete exporting the registry to the file, open MS ActiveSync:
(a) Click on "Explore" option on the taskbar menu.
(b) Navigator to the filesystem/folder for which you have save the registry file to.
(c) Copy to the desktop and zipped it up.
Then post it to this forum.
Note: The resco explorer is a trial version. If you don't like it, you can uninstalled it after the trial period has expired.
Many thanks!

Here is reg from my IMATE JAM. Has a lot of crap from installed software

Hi Henry,
Well that all explains my problem.
I was trying to use the Rescoe Explorer to export it not the Rescoe Registery editor.
Now it all makes sense.
Thanks for explaining, here is the Reg from my o2 xda II mini

Thanks for the registry file! Thanks to ID64 also for his IMATE-JAM registry.
I need to ask a couple of very specific questions:
(a) Can you heard music piping through your BT headset?
(b) Did anyone of you has SD Wifi 256RAM card and use it successfully?
Many thanks!

Hi,
Nope the music does not pipe to my Jabra 250 headset. If I start Media Player the music comes from the mini even though the headset is bonded.
And I have not tried a wifi card. But I have read reviews at www.compactjam.com and www.mmtek.com.au that say the SD wifi cards work just fine.

BT registry investigation....confuse and clueless
hmmm,
it's a rare privilege to have comb through so many versions of registries and dumprom so many versions of ROM to test the DLLs....
Well, the fact is, I've hanged my device many times now.
I was hoping that since MS BT is 1.2 compliant in Mini/JAM, they would at least include A2DP and allow stereo piping to the headset...
What does the BT 1.2 compliant mean? Well, honestly not much. The main advantage that Bluetooth 1.2 has over 1.1 is Adaptive Frequency Hopping. According to Ed Hardy of the fantastic Brighthand.com website, “Adaptive Frequency Hopping (AFH) is designed to reduce interference between technologies sharing the 2.4 GHz spectrum. Cordless telephones, microwave ovens, and certain Wireless Local Area Networking (WLAN) technologies, including 802.11b, and IEEE 802.11g, generally share the same wireless frequencies as Bluetooth. AFA works within the spectrum to take advantage of the available frequencies without limiting the Bluetooth transmission to a set of frequencies occupied by other technologies. This ‘adaptive hopping’ allows for more efficient transmission within the spectrum, thereby providing the user with greater performance, even if using other technologies along with the Bluetooth wireless technology.”
Perhaps someone has checked the ipaq devices and know how they have managed to pipe the mono sound to the headset?
I've check the Mini/JAM registry and I'm glad to say that there seems to be minor differences in the BT registry settings.
It's interesting why HTC skipped Broadcomm BT in Mini/JAM when it is implemented for XDAIIs....
Oh well, :?: :?: :?:

1. No
2. I don't have WIFI card, so I cant confirm/deny anything

So you CAN get voicedial working on Bluetooth?
Hi,
Sorry, I'm a bit of a novice and so I don't understand... Are you saying it is possible to get Vito Voice Dialer working with Bluetooth?
I checked the link but it's in THAI and I can't follow what's going on.
Can you please confirm whether it's possible.
I don't understand what all the registry and rom dumps are for...
Thanks in advance.

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

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.

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 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.

Holy crap... I guess I really didn't understand what was going on as I stated in this thread, I had already been doing this kind of stuff using GoGadgets! from another developer. But now I get that its official from MS. They even took the EXACT SAME software that Ikanos Consulting created... sheesh.
Thanks for the video, I always thought that GoGadgets was cool stuff.
Hope this brings more light into this awesomeness.

I have already uninstalled it because I only care about anything "Media Center" SideShow. Haven't found one and haven't really looked for one as of late.
The T-Mo Wing is seriously underpowered but I was actually getting along rather smooth. Also using Bluetooth as the connection is sorta useless if you walk out of range. Which is not too far in my house. Connecting was fast and simple after the initial setup. The today plugin thing is nice but again sorta useless. I really expected it to have controls right there so you wouldn't have to navigate so many pages.
I know I am critical and this is the official first release and it is not even a finished product just a developers release. But it has potential.

very, very, very COOL!

Microsoft Bluetooth Stack.
If you have XP SP2 or higher its built in but if you use a 3rd party Stack like from toshiba etc. you might have trouble. you have to figure out what stack you have...

I went through a bit of a headache getting mine to work. Maybe I can help. I just need you to write in a more coherent manner.

I had a few issues too. If I installed the PPC component before pairing, the PC would not locate and install the appropriate drivers. If I paired first, then enabled the SideShow BT service, the PC would locate and install the drivers just fine. I tried this several times, and that was the only way that worked for me. Weird. YMMV.

It's annoying that all the fancy new software is made for Vista.
*Crosses Windows Mobile Device Centre off the list
*Crosses Windows SideShow For Windows Mobile off the list

Alright. so a little batch of detailed insturctions about using this:
(during the process make sure your device is DISCOVERABLE)
1. It doesn't REALLY matter if you're using MS STACK or TOSHIBA STACK as long as there is a sideshow service detected.
A. if you have toshiba stack:
right click on the bluetooth tray icon and open the bluetooth devices.
add a new one and detect the service MANUALLY (choose CUSTOM).
if you see a service called "...sideshow..." on the list, you can use it. it is mostly UNprobable that you will.
connect to your device
continue to section C
B. if you have ms stack:
right click on the tray icon.
click options.
add a new device.
pair it using your own passkey.
open the options once more and you see your device in the Devices window.
click on it and click properties.
go to services and, if you installed sideshow on your device, and ran it, you should see Sideshow in the list.. as well as Activesync and a few others maybe.
click ok and it'll try to connect to your device.
(if you can't connect, go to COM ports in OPTIONS And install a new one. i used COM port 3..)
C. go to control panel, go to sideshow, and you should be able to mark V on the gadgets you'd like to use.
2. MS stack: double click the provided file. install it and read the TXT that appears on your desktop for further instructions...
TOSHIBA stack: just install the stack..
make sure you uninstall each before installing the other.
these are both the LATEST versions of both stacks: (up until the day of posting this message of course )
TOSHIBA STACK:
http://rapidshare.com/files/120186967/TOSHIBA_BTSTACK.zip.html
MS STACK:
http://rapidshare.com/files/120187911/MS_BTSTACK.exe.html
i strongly suggest you keep both files on your comp as a cover for any services one might provide while the other doesn't.
for instance, to my knowledge, MS stack works HORRIBLY with Async...
while TOSHIBA stack doesn't work with sideshow at all. (at least from what i've experienced)

Is there one for XP Professional by any chance?

Is there a more detailed step by step on how to set this up? Would I be able to remote access the computer via internet if I am away from home?

i think if you are accessing away from home the difficulty is not in setting Remote Desktop. it will be setting up your router and firewall to properly forward the ports. try start with the LAN (within your home) first.
XP/vista:
1. has to be XP Pro or Vista Business/Ultimate. the "Home" versions won't work
2. Right click, My computers->properties->Remote-> SELECT "Allow user to connect remotely to this computer", this option is under Remote Desktop Section, NOT Remote Assistance.
3. (many ways to do this step, this is only one of them) Start->Run->type "cmd"->type "ipconfig"-> obtains your computer's IP address
4. Moving over to HD, launch Remote Desktop (Mobile), in computer name/ip address, you can type in the IP address you just obtained. ALTERNATIVELY, you can type in your computer name (ie. Buggybug0). To obtain your computer name, go to your computer, right click, My Computer->Properties->Computer Name -> Look under "Full Computer Name"
5. In HD's Remote Desktop Mobile, go to Options, adjust the settings they are pretty intuitive.
6. if your desktop/laptop, have passwords, enter them in the RDP Mobile, if you don't, it's okay, it will prompt you. In most cases, you do not need a domain name. In corner cases, you do, but rare, post here if you suspect this is cause a problem, i don't want to confuse everyone.
7. if you want to use RDP mobile in full screen, I recommend mapping one of the buttons to "left soft key" or "right soft key" or "bring up keyboard" so you can exit full screen and use the on-screen keyboard to type. Maping keys is done in (on HD): Start->settings->buttons.

I need help on this aswell. I have tried various things. Under my computer - properties- remote i have checked both boxes. I have included remote desktop to the exceptions of the windows firewall. Opened port 3389 and checked if they were actually open using www.canyouseeme.org. Then i connected my HD to my wireless network, launched RDM. And filled this in (screenshot 1) this is my network IP
I also tried filling in my ip i get when go to www.whatismyip.com but then i get this screen: (screenshot 2)
It will say connecting for 2 seconds and then switch back to this screen saying not connected. I think i have everything set up correctly, but it still doesnt work

i enter my IP and get to a windows xp logon screen which needs a username and password.
I have no password on my machine so what the hell.
nevermind i found the solution, the machine requires a password to make it work.

I use GoToMyPC on the Touch Hd which works great and is really easy to set up. You have to install the app via PIE instead of Opera though.

wow how easy you sound, BUT you didnt answer the MAIN question ... TUTORIAL ...
I want to use remote desktop like this / pc - internet conection - touch hd/
1. what to do with my pc /on my pc/?
2. do i need to install server?
3. Is there a website like ovi.com for nokia similar for touch hd?
4. Do i have to pay for public ip adress?
HOW DO I DO IT?

I cant get it to work despite following this tutorial and the one from pocketnow on youtube. Is it because I have Vista Home Premium? But if so then why are the remote desktop options in vista if it is not compatible as mentioned in post 5?

I'm guessing it's solved but some points just in case anyone else reads this
the address you use is a 192.168.x.y address this is for private networks
so you'd have to use wifi on the local network , in which case the firwall is probably irrelevant. If, on the other hand you are on some external network (3g etc) the you would go via the firewall (use it's external address as the target) and as well as enabling remote connections to the PC you need to do three things
1. open the ports (which you did)
2. set up forwarding to your target pc, otherwise you are rdp-ing to the firewall itself
3. and make sure the account you use has a password

Well, there are lots of possibilities.
It is correct that Vista Home Premium does NOT support Remote Desktop, only "Remote Assistance" which is not the same. One of the reasons for me keeping the ole XP Pro
For a free solution You can install VNC server (i.e. UltraVNC, TightVNC) on the PC and then use VNC client/viewer on the PPC (i.e http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=128549&package_id=140792&release_id=503186 , or http://www.mochasoft.dk/vncce.htm#touch (commercial) )
But, please, do take security seriously !!!!!!!! You can use zaTunnel for encrypted tunnel between PPC and PC (or between the PPC and your home router if it has SSHD server and then portforward VNC session to PC). See here: http://www.zatelnet.com/zatunnel/zatunneldoc.php
If all this sounds unfamiliar, then ... prepare for a LONG reading.

WakeOnLan for PocketPCs v0.1 (by Tommi)
Insanely simple program to send some magic packets out to a specified MAC address.
Just extract and run. No Installer needed or included.
Can be used as a command line tool or just by starting and entering the MAC Address in the popup Window.
Command Line:
Please use as following:
WakeOnLan.exe [MACAddress]
MacAddress can be either 01E4523AEE22 or 01:E4:52:3A:EE:22
One way to set it up for easy use with just one PC in you your home is to create a shortcut to the program, and then use a file exploerer (e.g. Total Commander) to change the shortcut and add the MAC address to the end of the command. If you place the shortcut in the start menu you should be able to start your PC by simple pressing the program icon in the start menu.
Requirements
You need WiFi. If you don't have it there is no way this will work.
Should run on any device that has .NET CF 2.0 installed. (Only tested it on my Blackstone though)
CREDITS
Basically all I did was putting pieces from the Web together, there is no real idea from inside this app.

When you say start your pc, what exactly do you mean? Like if my computer is off (not completely, switch is still on, just he computer is "off") if I use this, it will boot on my computer?

Hi FatBoyExtraordinaire,
if your PC support Wake On Lan (WOL) you can startup your PC from being completely switched off. It will be the same as pressing the Power Button.
It does not work with WLAN only with LAN cable connected to the PC. Typically WOL is not enabled by default. It probably needs to be activated in your PC BIOS and also in windows.
Here is a little howto that should basically help: http://www.anycpu.com/projects/diypc/GraniteBay/OS.htm#WakeOnLAN
Cheers,
Tommi

this is GREAT. very useful for my office
thank you so much

You are welcome nir
If you use it in your office, maybe a version with a proper GUI with a list of PCs may be usefull. (or you use a mortscript batch to fire up wakeonlan via commandline for all machines...)
Anyways let me know if a GUI version would be useful for you, and I see what I can do
Cheers,
Tommi

Thank you very much!
If you want to run the App with Parameters, you can Press the Ok-Hardware Button and then Hold the Stylus down on the Clock at the top right corner. Then you can choose "Run" and use it like the windows "Run".

Would this work if you VPN into a router? Will the magic packet be preserved?

be nice to user this over the phone internet connection and not over the wifi is it even possible to do that? anybody have any pointers?

Thanks for the quick and thorough response. Gotta do a little research in regards to Vista and get back to you.

WOL has nothing to do with the Operation System you use on your PC. Check the settings in your Bios.

Hi surur,
I don't know if that will work. Important is that you have to be in the same subnet as the machines you wanna wake up, otherwise the broadcast will not reach them. Usually the VPN should completely cover the connection and for the client there should be no difference between a direct connection or the connection via VPN. I may however depend on the VPN solution.

Hi Keeland,
this will surely not work via the phone line as the packages are beeing broadcasted to all machines in the same network as the sender. This is because the routers in the network cannot determine any IP address of the destination machine because they are switched off and do not have one. The MAC address however is device/hardware specific and always assigned to the network card.
So sending this request to your home PC would require the Internet to 'know' the MAC of your PC which sits behind your router in your own LAN. This is a technical impossibility I would say.
But you could perhaps go for the VPN solution which is probably Keland's idea but this would require to have a VPN server on your home router and a client on your phone...

Hi Marc,
glad to see you also stumbled over on of my little creations
Actually you are not fully correct.
The bios need to leave 'the light on' for the LAN card after power off, this is correct. But you also need to tell the LAN card that it should actually care for the magic packets and not just ignore them and this you can only do within the OS by the means of the LAN cards driver. And 3rd: most operating systems are actively setting the power modes for the LAN cards on shutting down which is by default usually set to:completely power off, to safe energy and to overwrite the LAN cards defaults (which is usefull in case of a power outage e.g. where the PC could loose the ability for WOL until the next boot).
So you need to do changes in the OS even though the actual process of booting up the PC afterwards has nothing to do with the OS.
Gruesse,
Tommi

Hi trondis,
thanks for the links, but I cannot imagine this will work via DSL (when you are not using a router but are directly connected via DSL modem) because there is no IP address when you are not online and you are not online when the PC is off. As for the router based option, I do not even want to think about the possible security problems in opening up a broadcast port forwarding from the internet to my local home net.

I haven't tried it myself, but I will. It is supposed to work according to several articles, but probably not via DSL. A router might remember your IP-adress, but you need to enable port forwarding in the router. There are other tools available also. Check this web-site: http://www.depicus.com/ They also have some more info. They even have an application for old Pocket PCs (2002/3).

@ thomasschaz:
This has got to be the coolest thing ever! I changed a setting in my BIOS and tried it, but it wouldn't work. I dual boot XP and LinuxMint. I have an onboard 10/100 port that I don't use because I installed a Netgear GA311 gigabit card. I remember in XP there were settings for PowerManagement and WOL. So I enabled the three checkmarks using this http://http://www.anycpu.com/projects/diypc/GraniteBay/OS.htm#WakeOnLAN
Then I shut off my PC and tried your app...It turned the computer on and booted in to Mint (default). I need to figure out how to make this work without those XP settings. I need to find a way in Mint how to activate WOL because it is obviously working off the XP settings.
But for now, as long as I dual boot with XP this will work. Just a suggestion for entering the MAC. I tried to paste the MAC into the box in your app but it won't let me do that. Can you make it so that we can paste that? Or make some kind of drop down box to choose a predefined (user saved) PC. Also something to enter other stuff like MAC, subnet, port, etc... For using when outside of your network. It may already do this, I just don't know how (router settings???).
Something like this...
