Hi guys,
I switched from HD to HD2 and now noticed that the stock ROM isn't using the MS Bluetooth client. The new client (from HTC?) has a strange problem. If a program want to connect to a COM port it asks which COM port to use every time. This only happens with serial profile, not with Hands-Free.
The maximum baud rate for a com port is limited to 57600. It should be 115200 as ever before.
Any suggestions?

OK, I have downloaded and installed BTTools on my XDA-II device but I have a problem with a BlueTooth device.
The device is a portable bar-code scanner of the trademark Baracoda.
The model is BL1000: http://www.baracoda.com/baracoda/products/p_2.html
I have installed BTTools cause this device works with bateries and have power save: past one minute it disconnect the BlueTooth connection with PDA and once started again not comunicate the bar-codes with PDA but is present.
The problem is that not works with BTTools.When I discover new devices through BlueTooth it discover the device but the selector screen of COM only I have as selection COM7.
I have tried before install BTTools and the device only works using the default COM5 port of Outbound COM port (BlueTooth Configuration). I think to work with BL1000 and BTTools I need that this port it be COM7 or instead that BTTools allow me select COM5 as COM port for comunication. Is it possible?
This device has an auxiliar program for translate the information of the BL1000 to PDA. http://www.baracoda.com/baracoda/products/p_9.html called Kemul.
Inside it you can configure a virtual port of Master device and Slave device but not work. If I use BTTools I select:
Slave: COM8
Master: COM7 (the COM assigned by BTTools)
This configuration not work
If I uninstall BTTools the device works and comunicate with XDA-II but the net time that the device switch off automatically not works.
I don´t understand what is happened or how I have to configure to work with BTTools.
Thanks in advance
Hi, I have a brand new XDA Mini, but with Qtek S100 WWE Rom 1.12, and I bought a Bluetooth GPS, Xaiox NAVOne 2.0...
Bluetooth manager can see the gps without problems, but my Medion2004 Navigation Software says, no GPS is avaiable.
I've already read in the users manual, that GPS needs Com8.
As I see in Start -- Settings -- System -- Bluetooth settings, xda mini has Com5 for outbond port, and Com4 for inbound port.
How can I change ? No program is running, if I check.
Please, help me, thanks.
Nobody has a good idea ? I have already tried the Pocket Bluetooth Tools, it can give a solution, to change COM port 5 to COM port 8, my bluetooth gps requires this port.
BUT, this screenshot appears only a small moment (0,1sec) when I install NAVone2.0 gps...
I installed this gps 100 times, everything is the same.
Can you suggest me another bluetooth tools application?
The problem is simple, to change COM 5 to COM 8.
Thanks in advance.
You could try installing gpsgate from franson

change software!
I think you should try change software. I have tomtom 5 to my s100 and it works just fine..
Hi, All. For a couple of days now I am trying to synchronize my O2 Neo with my PC per bluetooth. I am using a cheap bluetooth dongle, which comes with BlueSoleil software. When the devices find each other, the Prothet only recognizes a Serial Port connection. Than I assign outgoing port on the Prophet (I think COM6), I include COM 6 in the ActiveSync (4.2 by the way) settings and map COM6 to my prophet in the Bluesoleil settings. When I refresh the services on my Prophet I can again only see the Serial port connection. Can someone give a hint?
I have two services on my windows computer that I would like to use simultaneously. One is my bluetooth-connected GPS and one is a handsfree profle (using phoco) from my Cingular 8525 (factory rom).
Unfortunately both of these devices set up on COM9 and give me no options for anything else. To connect to one, I must disconnect from the other.
I have tried adding available ports on my 8525 both through the bluetooth preferences (new outgoing port...) and by the registry hack described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=261844
in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Serial\Ports\SupportedPorts I added every port I could think of but see no difference in the behavior of the phone. Ihave unpaired and re-paired the device and always only get the single option for the COM port to use.
Do you guys have any ideas how I could get another port to work with my 8525? Currently COM8 is set for activesync and COM9 for serial connection, but I cannot change either of these.
I am running the default BT stack on the 8525 and would like to avoid the Widcomm stack if possible. I am running the widcomm stack on the windows PC.
Thanks.
Hi All, I upgraded my 8525 to WM6 and I don't have the New Outgoing Port option in the Bluetooth COM Ports tab even after pairing with my PC and/or bluetooth devices. Do anybody know how to fix this issue? Thank you in advance for your help.
Same problem here (also WM6)
The device has a supported "Serial Port", and you checked it off when pairing the device, right?
I can't really help more than that - it's working beautifully on my Hermes. Google Maps can use my Garmin GPS20SM, and track my location as I drive. Not practical, but it works.
