Hey all,
I dont know if this has been asked yet or not but how can i connect my phone to my laptop through bluetooth, i already have a receiver but i cant get windows mobile device center to pick it up even though it already has a USB connection partnership. Anyone have any solutions to get it to work via bluetooth?
Other details:
My OS is Windows 7 home premium and i use Bluesoleil with my usb bluetooth adapter.

Go to ActiveSync Connection manager. Lowest option is something like "Allow ethernet and RAS connection with this desktop". Put a check into the checkbox and you should be set.

Yes. You can either get a wireless lan SD-Card for your mini and hook into your WLAN if you have one or you get a Bluetooth dongle for your machine you are running ActiveSync on. Then setup ActiveSync and your mini to use Bluetooth as syncing connection and all will be working fine.
that there dongle..
mate thanks for your response, i have the blue tooth dongle and although it does let me conenct to my PC - it wont to the internet via my adsl until i hook up the usb cable. is there a specific bluetooth or internet setting?
regards

excuse me, which version of ActiveSync has these settings?
versions
on the PC its 4.1 on the xda mini its whatever it comes with, why?
juan
active sync
what happens is that if i try to connect them with active sync and no usb cable (but the blue tooth dongle in my pc) it just searches comports and usb...and i get now where.

ActiveSync has no bluetooth out of the box. You have to use your Bluetooth driver software to map a virtual serial port to the bluetooth device. When this option is enabled you have to do the pairing of magician and PC again, and you need to setup the magician to use the virtual serial port as well. When both devices are set up correctly the magician talking bluetooth will appear to the PC as a device on some virtual COM port such as COM 5 or whatever. Then you can setup ActiveSync to use COM5 for serial connection (although it is bluetooth) and all is fine.
How to exactly set up the virtual com on your PC differs from BT driver to BT driver. Maybe someone can give exact step-by-step directions, it was a long fiddle for me as well...
Hi there,
I always synced my phone bluetooth with my laptop (Windows 7 x64)
My laptop is bluetooth visible and devices are allowed to connect.
my phone sees my laptop, and me laptop sees my phone
when i bluetooth connect them it seems to go ok, but in the Windows device manager from my laptop it says cannot find drivers.
Strange because i downloaded the latest windows mobile center
I have an unknown bluetooth periphal device in the device manager
USB connection does work properly and the sync! i also can reach my 8Gb SD in my computer
Cheers!
I removed the initial question about the bluetooth connection with my carkit.
The initial question is a problem of my car, don't ask why but i tested bluetooth integrated carkit with a other phone and it also does not work properly so something in the wiring of my car is stuck and is not for this forum. First it DID work with the other phone
I cannot find how to change the thread type to "Bluetooth connection with WIndows 7"
nobody has problems with windows 7 drivers?
Goodday!
i got the following problem,
When i am trying to connect my hd2 with my computer it all works fine. But when i want to sync my phone trough active sync, it doesn't see my HD2. I can send packages like pictures or movies to my phone trough this bluetooth connection but i really want to update my HD2.
My phone doenst connect with usb anymore so thats why im trying to store an bluetooth connection. (I am using windows XP.)
If you guys could help me out i would be verry pleased, thnx instead!
Download and install Windows Mobile Device Centre, everything should work fine afterwards!
i thought that windows device center isn't working for windows xp users?
you want to update your HD2 using bluetooth because usb cable is no longer working?
Simply, Bluetooth is not a replacement for the USB cable. You can't apply ROM updates through Bluetooth, you have to fix the USB
