Thanx for the detailed set-up instructions Kropotov!
I follwed to the letter but at this time I'm still unable to get it all to work. When i enable the PC dial up connection it activeate the Atom cos the back light come on abd the BT symbol in the PC system tray changes colour. However it does not want to get past this stage and no signs of the GPRS sybol coming on the PPC...........I know my GPRS APN is "NET" with user name being the operator and the password being "WAP" but still nothing working. I just don't know why it should be so hard to establish a link via BT or USB cable. It was easier to do on my old Nokia 6030 about 5 years ago than it is on my Atom!
Regards
Chris.

try to connect to GPRS using USB connection...
Can you go to internet from your Atom?

How do I know which COM port the ActiveSync is using......would it be COM1 by default? When i try to set up a DUN modem the only ports that i can see are all Bluetooth ports that i have created, I do nt get the choice for COM1.
I also found some instructions from O2 on how to set up an Xda II to act as a modem, in these instructions you set up a new standard modem on the PC, disable Activesync on the PC then deactivate "Receive all beams" on the PPC and then activate "Modem Link" on the PPC. Then when you plug in the PDA to the PC via USB cable the computer will detect new hard ware and try to install a drive, I have not been able to locate the required driver o the internet so can not get any further with this method. The driver is on the OEM CD supplied with the device and as I'm away from home i can not check if i have the driver on the CD that came with the Atom. The driver i called "HTC USB Modem".

angusc :wink:

Kropotov,
I can't figure out how to download the file from this site, sorry to be such a pain.

http://dl.rapidshare.ru/27257/99530/USBMDM.INF

Thanx again for your continued support and assistance but that link is not working for me at this time, i will try it again later to hopefully get to that file!!

give me your mail. I will send you

kropotov,
Thx for the file, i installed a new modem on my PC and then activated the "modem link" on my PPC and installed the driver when prompted, but alas still not working. I think it is to do with the assigned COM port for the modem on the PC, I can only seem to choosE COM 4, 9, 13, 14, 15 when installing the modem to PC. I would think that the Atom would be com port 1-3 as it is connected to one of my PC USB ports......
Will keep playing and let you know if I manage to get it to work......Thanx for all your help.

How hard reset

Hi,
after flashing with Helmi WM6 I had problem with active sync. If I leave the check box on PCto USB connection, Is impossible for me make a connection with PC.
For these reason I would like to make a hard reset but i I press power button and soft reset, dont work. So how can I reflash again the rom?
I would like to write also in italian If there is someone can help me.
tnks.

You should know how to HardReset your device (You MUST perform
hardreset during flashing ROM!)
Just to make it sure - you have UNcheck the USB check box in PC ActiveSync and are no longer able to sync via USB, right?
How to make "proper" flash:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM6_WizzardMain

tanks you Kerio, I have read in the wiki more instruction about hard reset, now is more clear.
Yes If i UNcheck the USB check box in PC ActiveSync, I am no more able to sync via USB, why?

Lol - man
[ ]Allow USB connection -> You CANNOT sync via USB
[x]Allow USB connection -> You CAN sync via USB
--- Really funny Why do you want to uncheck this option? Just let it [x] and its ok...

I,m sorry for my english, maybe I wrote wrong. The trouble is: On the BA, in the USB to PC program, If I Check Enable advance network functionality, I can sync but I can't navigate to internet.
If I UNcheck the check box of Enable advance network functionality, the BA don't sync anymore no more connection to PC.

This was discussed some times ago - use search button.
Shortly : Make your internet connection shared (ON PC) or add "those" registry entries.
*those* - use search button.

Kerio, great help. I found the post as you told me, the file is LSPvalue.reg . After done all work perfectly.
Thanks you so mutch.

How to "attach" USB Tool and activate "Internet Sharing" automatically at startup ?

How to "attach" USB Tool and activate "Internet Sharing" automatically at startup ?
I "liberated" my XP downgraded HTC Shift and succesfully tested 3G connectivity.
The problem is that every time I restart the device, I have to:
1) enter WM
2) Attach device via USB Tool
3) Enable Internet sharing
As WM is an operating system, I guess how to do this automatically. Can I write a "bat" file to do these steps or do you have any advice to achieve this ?
Any help MUCh appreciated.
Regards.

go to wm -win start menu --settings--connection--ub to pc--enable advance network connectivity.
this should fix the problem, cheers

Unfortunately, it does not solve the problem.
I noticed that the only thing I have to do is to activate Internet Sharing.
How to do this at startup, automatically ? Has WinMo some autoexec file or startup folder ?
Thanks.

Up, please. I'm so near to surf only starting up my shift

Up. Up. Up. Up.

Yes I'm sure you can do all of that with Mort Script,
Good luck!
And don't forget to post your final results so other users would enjoy of that!

unapproachable2kx,
can you support me ?

Maybe you can just drop the shortcut for the application on the startup folder or maybe DotFred's TaskManager can help(http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm).

WinMo has a startup folder (\windows\startup\) that you can create a shortcut for "Internet Sharing" inside, the problem is that you need a parameter with the shortcut to run the "Activate" conmmand in "Internet Sharing"; 'cause a normal shortcut will just run the app, then you'll have to press Activate manually (we want to automate that too); same thing for "USBTool". Unfortunaltely, I don't know the set of parameters for the shortcuts.
Or try looking for some advanced shortcut creation tools for WinMo, like in this list

htc usb to pc popup

the 3 options for usb to pc pops up when hd is connected to PC.
But if I want to reconnect to mode e.g: disk driver mode, how could I achieve
this without plugout&plugin the usb cable? Thank you.

you can softreset your phone after changing mode
otherwise you can't as far as I know

Yes you can!
Start -> Settings -> Connections tab -> USB to PC
Select what you need and the device will switch to that mode without any resets or replugging of the cable.

usb2pc doesn't include the internet shareing as usb2pcpopup.

There should be InternetSharing program in your start menu (I have Dutty's 3.3 ROM, I don't remember whether this program is stock or not, but I think it is). If you're connected to pc as activesync / usb drive just launch InternetSharing and the phone will switch to modem automatically. Once you disconnect IS the phone will go back to the activesync / usb drive mode.
Don't be afraid to explore your device (and the manual ) - it looks like you don't know about a lot of its features.

I have just flashed back to the official ROM.
The usb2pc do have 3 options. But the cooked rom like Dutty's 3.3 ROM
have only 2 options without internet sharing.
I am aware that I could run share internect, but it is much better if things
can be controlled in under one control page.

Ok, I'm having a problem with this feature... The USB to PC popup is stuck on internet sharing and it won't let me activesync and it's just really starting to make me angry... argh... I've tried going into the registry to change it but I don't know which value to change. I would love to disable the usb to pc altogether except activesync functions. Could anyone help me? I'm using 6.5 v23017.

Nevermind...lol I fixed it. I manually put it in bootloader mode, and flashed athiene os v23409.

yeah and i dont think that the ics option will appear unless ur phone has been given it sim info

Is there a solution to set it back to Active Sync without Internet Sharing other than flashing a new ROM?
I do not get the USB2PC-Popup anymore and my USB2PC dialog (Settings->Connection->USB2PC) is somehow incomplete (Can't see the "Ask me first .."-Dialog).
Is there a registry hack or something? I'v been googling for hours and I'm pretty sick of it right now.
Appreciate any help, thank you guys.
// edit says:
Found a registry entry:
HKLM\Software\OEM\USBtoPC
my Values are:
AskConnect: 1
Device_Type: 2
DisablePopUpUI: 0
EnableAdvanceChecked: 0

Still nothing ...

Yeah, well ... I flashed it.

/sdcard/btsnoop_hci.log not found

@anybody: please activate "Bluetooth HCI-Snoop-Protocol" in developer options and tell me if you have the file /sdcard/btsnoop_hci.log on your phone.
If yes => please tell me which rom you are using.
i am on xXx 9.6
the file is not existing. I tried to edit the /etc/bluetooth/bt_stack.conf manually. still no success. I need to debug the bluetooth data between my smartwatch (zeTime) and my phone.

It will be saved in /sdcard/oem_log/ once you enable logging in oemlogkit.
Dialer -> input *#800#->get wireless log->get bluetooth log.

Got the log. Can you recommend a tool to read it? Something Like wireshark for Android?
I am new to this. I am a java Developer, but new to Bluetooth Debugging

You can analyze it with wireshark, there's also a HCI debugger app in the play store.

Is anybody else having problems with the btsnoop file not being generated?
I've had Bluetooth problems ever since updating to OxygenOS 5.1.1 (https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/constant-bluetooth-problems-after-updating-to-5-1-1.831111/), and I'm still having the same problem after doing clean flash to 5.1.3.
OnePlus contact me about this and gave me the instructions to generate the log files to email to them, I followed those instructions and it generated different log files in the oem_log directory, except for the btsnoop file itself, and they were at a loss as well as to why the btsnoop file wasn't being generated.
Here's the instructions they gave me, I followed it to a "T" and tried different variations hoping one of them would work, but no luck.
Input *#800# from dialing interface, enter "oneplus logkit", delete history log
Click "advanced" > "save log type" > enable all options, then click OK
Tap “move log path to built-in SD card” and then click "save log", when it informs you whether to reboot, click “cancel” > enter "Wireless connection", enable "Bluetooth air bag switch" and “Bluetooth protocol stack LOG switch”
Go back, click "get QXDM Log, choose “bt related”, roll down, click "open device log"
Go to: settings>Developer options> Click Enable Bluetooth HCI snoop log to make sure this function has been enabled. If it is enable already, please enable again.
(Important) Then turn Bluetooth on, reproduce the issue and take a screenshot to record the time
Wait for several minutes (better above 10 minutes), tap "save log" and click “move log path to built-in SD card” again to stop it, enter QXDM Log and choose “close device log”
