Bluetooth Problems! Cant Receive! - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

Hi!
I have had this phone for a few days and have unlocked and upgraded to WM6!
I am really happy as I have just upgraded from my HTC Alpine!
My only remaining problem is Bluetooth.
A) I have to turn on Bluetooth before I can send a file within explorer.
B) I can't receive files at all! It simply says ERROR on the senders phone.
The latter is the more important one which I need a fix for ASAP. I have trawelled the web and have not seen a fix.
I have obviously made sure that my phone can be detected and to receive all incoming beams as well as pairing them. Still no luck.
I also had a look at Bluezard which looks quite good as an extra, (want to recieve files without it) but it look quite old and no longer in development, is there any other application that does the same thing that it perhaps a bit more modern?
Thanks,
Joe/Jophster

In phone settings there an icon for Beam. Check it if not already check. Then try to receive file. If already checked then try to change the sending device may be bluetooth not connecting because of any conflicts.
About sending you have to keep the bluetooth active/on because there is IR port in hermes so it will not ask you to on bluetooth.

Bluezard
Hi
Well the ROM I was using apparently had problems so I have tried a different one and will experiment. It was so easy with my HTC Apline, it is so annoying to do something so simple!
Thanks for the help!

Do you know of any others. Maybe a way to chat via bluetooth or to send multiple files. If not then Bluezard looks like a good solution.
Thanks,

Bluejacking with WM5

I'm trying to bluejack with my M2000 running WM5. I've tryed various software but none of it works, Dose anyone know of any software that will do this? I used to be able to do it in WM2003 just by sending contacts via bluetooth.
Thanks in advance WWWeed........
I would love to find a good pocket pc program that could automaticly bluejack people.on my old P800 i use a program called s-man that does a constant scan for other phones and then sends a message to them over and over again
why would people want to do that ?

there is such a program, i've used it on my old c500 and my jasjar, it's called smurf, I forget the link, but google it and ye shall find. btw it's freeware and does auto bluejacking
STUNNING, STUNNING, thanks for the smurf heads up, you are a star!
doesnt work ir searches devices and then shows an error and quits =(( help

Here's the link:
http://www.gatefold.co.uk/smurf/
(download is below on the page)
Looks nice btw :lol:
And you need the Microsoft Bluetooth stack for this one,
finally 'Jack's Back on WM5'
its true, i can blue jack onedevices and then as soon as it trys again-it just comes up with and error, i wish we had a version of S-man (from p800/P9XX)
if anyone know of some better software then please to tell 8)
Ok im bored with Smurf, there must be a better software out there, i would like to do some blue snarfing for fun, does anyone know of anything better out there?
http://www.inventop.com/proximitymailsetup.exe
i havn't tested it yet,it might be the right stuff
no such luck, im sure it would work on the M1000/M2000, on my M5000 it just says it cant find a bluetooth stack so forget that download
can sum1 please post a cab for the the .net compact v.2 thanks!
the file for compact framework v2 is http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframework/programming/netcf/downloads/default.aspx
thats from the microsoft web page just click the top link and then download the msi file and it will add it to your activesync for next time you sync up
I cant believe that there is still not a good bluejacking program out there for WM5, or windows mobil all together, how come symbian have loads of REALY good ones and we have like 1 and thats not that good either, i rekon someone is holding out and there is a great on efor us out there!.
Anyone?
bluejacking...
Hold your breath...
I'm currently implementing bluejacking in btCrawler.
It's already working for PPC but I need a few more days to put everything up for Smartphones...
You will be able to send messages AND files!
You can for example create your own "special" version 3 vcard including a photo or sound and then send it with btCrawler.
I'm also planning to implement something like a proximity mode. When a device comes in range a predefined automessage or file is sent...
however, link is: http://www.silentservices.de/btCrawler.html

Bluejacking is the practise of sending text or files to other bluetooth compatible devices that support OBEX push. Most people think it has something to do with Hijacking, but infact it's just named after the guy who came up with it named Jack. Bluejacking in not "Hijacking" or "Hacking" in any sense, you can only push, not pull.
Cornholio you are a star!, i didn't relise you had been making this program, you should start a thread to see if many people are interested!, i will try it out, have you tryed using Sman.sis on a sony Ericsson phone, its very good-it might give you a few ideas.
Oink i have got sniper-it seems a bit slow and fragile but i havnt tested it enough to give a good appion so my mind might change

Help – newbie with connectivity problems with my Mac

I just got this phone (HTC Wizard/MDA VArio) as a free upgrade and I spent hours last night trying to hook them both up so I can simply transfer files from one to the other. I couldn't get them to link.
Are they compatable in terms of just transfering files? I was hoping to sync the address book, calender, etc
I have done a search on this forum for things relating to Macs but I'm a bit confused with some of the topics. As you can see I'm a total novice and not very technical so I was wandering if anyone can help me out in terms of easy straightforward answers?
I'm quite familiar with Macs but I've never used PC's/windows before so if I don't get any help I may need to return this phone
Cheers in advance
To my knowledge there is not presently a way to sync the MDA with a Mac, unless of course, you have an Intel-based Mac and Bootcamp installed with a copy of XP.
In time Pocket Mac or the Missing Sync will have a menas of syncing them.
Up to this point I've been transfering my phonebook via bluetooth a few contacts at a time. This is only a temporary measure and a poor one at that.

Don't panic. The Missing Sync for Windows Mobile 5 is worth looking at. It is at alpha version 9 as of this message, and it will allow you to at least get the address book to your phone. That is a huge help.
http://www.markspace.com/testing/MSWM25_alpha.html
You can use Bluetooth to send and receive files... it works like a champ... though I'm on the Cingular 8125, so ymmv.
You can send CAB files via Bluetooth to install software. Some silly developers distribute .exe files, and those require some special attention (Open them in VPC, the find the CABs and send the from the Mac via Bluetooth. )
Anyway, don't send it back just yet! We're close.

Have you used Missing Sync? I have not but have heard mixed reviews -- most leaning on the negative.
I've used PocketMac and early versions messed up my address book beyond repair. In all fairness that was the original release version. More recent versions have worked perfectly.
Regardless, neither PM or MS have Windows Mobile 5 support as a stable product at this point.

I'm using Missing Sync 2.5a9 now... the alpha version, with my Cingular 8125. I'm giving it some leeway, it is alpha after all. My address book, calendar data, and tasks are all in tact.
I have no experience with PocketMac, so I can't speak to your experience with it.
that sounds promising. do you need a copy of missing sync to get the alpha?

Yes, and I took the risk ;-) Just be sure to read the mailing list archives before you plunk down the cash... the process is much better with a9, but it still isn't perfect.
The bottom line though is that I have all of my data on my 8125... and that rocks.
hmmmmmm....
so, on your report, i purchased missing sync. the v.2 version installed without issue. i then upgraded to the alpha and now the app won't start up -- it pops up on my screen then disappears. did you have that problem?
i've been perusing the support pages but can't find a solution.
i should rephrase that...the app starts up then quits, as in dead.
looking through their site i must say they have the worst documentation i've seen in recent years.
i've tried dumping the plist files and that doesn't seem to help.

Interesting. I did not have that problem... and I don't remember that being an issue at all on the alpha mailing list. Here are the archives:
http://lists.markspace.com/mailman/listinfo/missing-sync-winmobile-testing
The developers are pretty active on it.
I'm on a PowerBook G4 1.67 17"... what are you on?

send sms from another device using athena

hi guys!
this is what i want to do:
i want to be able to send sms messages from an external device which is connected to my athena.
1. let's say i have, for example, this "acme gadget" which is connected to athena through bluetooth. let's say the "acme gadget" can send alphanumeric chars to athena and then send those as sms.
2. or let's say, i have my bluetooth headset on, and i have a program called "acme program" on my athena that has speech-to-text feature. that program can then send sms from athena.
i'm really hoping i can send sms without having to bring my athena out of my bag, specially on snatcher-prone places.
ciao!

okay,
if i cant find a ready-made solution for this, then i will do my best to create a solution myself.
for developers out there, can you please point the correct direction for me to tread? any pointers will be very much appreciated.

I guess you mean something like this, although this one is for motorola's !!

Exatly ice_coffee!
Although I can live without the qwerty keyboard, a numeric keypad like those in regular cellphones will do.
If it's appearance is something like an lg style-i, it would be perfect.
Oh well, thanks for the post ice_coffee.
I'll keep on searching.

Perfect Bluetooth Manager for WM5/WM6

hi y'all, developers like me, who upgraded from WM2/WM3 to WM5/WM6, i know they surely miss the Bluetooth Manager, which is in WM2 & WM3, it's always been a full-fledged tool for everything, like creating BT Headset connection, BT Dial up network, BT File Transfer shortcut etc. It also tells you the speed of all active incoming & outgoing bluetooth connections. While in WM5/WM6, there are only few basic features of switching off/on bluetooth and changing its visibility.
Screenshots below, in post#6.
This application will work both in WM5 and WM6, i got this application from FTP of this site(Thanks to Helmi), so felt like posting a link as well. Cheers...
http://rapidshare.com/files/78498277/Broadcom_Bluetooth_Manager.CAB
NOTE: TAKE A PRIOR BACKUP, BEFORE INSTALLING.
Any screenshots?
Am downloading now...will post some screen shots after I've installed.
Broadcomm stack
Well, first of all , this has it's own thread . Just search for boradcomm / vidcomm bluetooth stack , and you will stumble upon it .
As far as I know , the forum paid $ 100 for a developer who ported this from the IPAQ operating system.
I installed it once ,on a previous WM6 edition , and it worked ( but see below ) , but i'm unable to get it to work with the more recent editions .
It does work , but there are several drawbacks .
1) Bluetooth light doesn't work any more .
2) Runs out of memory from time to time .
3) Not very well integrated into the OS .
etc , etc .
But never mind me , give it a try and post the results . ( PM me too ! ! ! )
Ummmm, thanks for that heads up...makes me think twice about testing this any further now...
hi mates, as requested by u, i m postin' some screenshots of this application. In the meanwhile, i discover'd one more function. When u turn the bluetooth on, and go to the traditional file explorer(the default one), if u right-click on any file, it will give u an option to send via bluetooth, the best part, there will be a drop-down menu, for the paired bluetooth devices, so that u don't need to make a search again.
And i agree with Dakshithaw, i myself mention'd that i got this app. listed in the FTP of this site, felt like posting a link. Bcuz a novice user wouldn't serarch for BROADCOM STACK, would try for bluetooth manager or something like this. Bluetooth light workin perfectly fine here, however it runs out of memory and fails to start sometimes(1 in 10 for me), so i reboot and work it out. It's well integrated in the OS, This bluetooth manager opens automatically when u click on the icon of bluetooth . It's actually worth using it, bcuz of its utilities, interface etc. Adieu..

Hi mate, initially, when i wuz postin' this application, i actually tried to upload it, in this thread itself. But it didn't work, it prompts "upload failed" i zipped it as well, but that didn't help either. So i gave up, and uploaded it to Rapidshare.
Just now, after seeing your reply, i tried to upload it again, no go. In fact, i discovered that i am unable to upload any file above 2MB. So, i have sent an e-mail to the webmaster, awaiting his reply..
You can either wait, or PM me your e-mail address, i ll mail it to you. The Rapidshare link is workin' fine, i tested it again.

Caused major problems with my bluetooth radio - in fact messed it up pretty bad... TomTom stopped working, uninstalled this and TT started working again...but BT radio seems irreparably damaged I can't pair up with my car anymore...plus I've lost all sound! Oh man, I'm having to do a hard-reset now...
I tried this on Hermes with WM6. I had it maybe couple of days installed and i didn`t use any bluetooth accessories with it. Today i tried to unistall this program and it caused a hard reset! After unistalling device reboots and after splash screen there was only white screen. Several soft resets or removing battery didn`t help. Hard reset solved this...
i found this bluetooth manager also on LG KS20
Faced the music..
Sorry for the trouble, mates. In fact, i never felt like uninstalling it, nor do i have GPS, so didn't know the consequences. However, after readin' ur posts, i uninstalled it and faced it. The sounds went off, even mp3 files were comin' corrupt. Had to do a hard reset to resolve. But i ll have to install it back, b'cuz it works, as an utility for me. However, i ll just put a warning msg to take a prior backup.

Even i do get this msg sometimes, this happens when there are too many applications running in the background, already. Either close the idle applications, or do a Soft-reset. Try to run it after a soft reset, it would work.

Even after removing the soft, BT doesn't work anymore... May be must try an hard reset or flash again the phone.

[Q] MMS Recieve Issue - Audio Messages

Ok, I've spent the better part of the weekend searching the this site on a possible answer to my issue, no luck. So maybe someone can help or point me the right direction to a solution.
My Issue: I use MMS audio messaging , I can send messages (around 288K) with no issues but receiving them (same file size) only half is able to download and only 8 sec. of it plays. NEVER had this issue with my original HD2.
Little background: My original HD2 , stock ROM, WinMo 6.5 - the mini usb broke off the motherboard, tried to fix it, no luck, bought another "T-Mobile US HD2" but this one has the 3.14.531.1 update with the jataayu software my original had ArcSoft software as I'm sure you all know this. I went through the registry to be sure some changes weren't made incorrectly (none that I could see) and all the different connection steps/suggestions with no luck but haven't completely wiped my connection settings clean, maybe I should start from scratch ?!?
So, I know most of you are "pros" here because you've help me in the past solve, fix or change things on my HD2 to make it a great phone ...and it still is today.
Thanks in advance for all your help your a great group of talented people.
OK, I figured out a work around. I have to save my received MMS audio file (.amr) and then I can play it in full length using TCPMP. For some reason the AudioPicker/Player in the HTC Messaging Client or Jataayu software will not play audio messages in full length. It only allows 8 seconds of play. Also noted, I read several people that receive photos have to download and save them to be able to view them in full size, possible same issues??. Seems weird.
