For a running project we moved from old HP PDAs to new HTC "Touch 2" smartphones. But unfortunately the bluetooth stack preinstalled on these devices isn't accepted by Labview Mobile applications, and the Widcomm stack in Labview is not compatible with this phone.
I did the following procedure to try and get the program working:
Labview BT stack
Hard reset of device
Turn on bluetooth, set to discoverable
Via LabView/Project Manager/ Windows Mobile 6 Device/ Install / "Support for Widcomm Bluetooth" install BT support on PDA, accept install on PDA.
Soft reset PDA, after reset the message "'BTTrayCE' is not a valid Pocket PC Application" is shown, and it's not possible to turn on BT.
By removing "BtCoreIf.dll" & "BtSdkCE30.dll" from the /Windows dir on the PDA, and soft reset, BT will turn on again.
Start Labview application (StimCom CRE_PDA.exe)
Select 'Search for BT devices'
StimCom CRE_PDA.exe will crash, and WM asks for error reporting
notes: method above installs Widcomm stack for Windows mobile version 3. The program is listed on the PDA as "NI Labview Pocket PC Bluetooth support 7.1". Uninstalling this program from the 'remove programs' will fail.
On the clean HTC image "BtSdkCE50.dll" and "BtSdkCE30.dll" are present in the Windows directory, so I assume that both v3 and v5 of the Widcomm stack are allready installed.
This leads to the conclusion that Widcomm v3 stack is needed, but the one provided with Labview is not compatible to this system, and the version present on the device is not compatible with Labview.
(v4 doesn't exist)
Step 1 till 3 are enough to get the Labview program running on a Sony Erricson Eperia with "Jack v5.0" WM6.5 firmware (the same BT hardware?) and on a HTC Touch with a Dutch WM 6.0.
According to http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/372508B-01/lvpdagsm/pda_install_widcomm/ when both the "BtSdkCE30.dll" and "BtSdkCE50.dll" are already present, you must only copy LVBtw.dll into the Windows folder of the device. I tried that as well, but the program still crashed as soon as you try the bluetooth connection.
I also tried to copy "BtCoreIf.dll" & "BtSdkCE30.dll" from the /Windows dir of a Xperia WM6.5 (Custom firmware "Jack v5.0" (International English) because that device also had WM6.5 and the program worked fine on that device. But on the HTC Touch 2 it gave the "'BTTrayCE' is not a valid Pocket PC Application" error.
The same error is given when I try to install the Widcomm stack for x51v ( http://www.mobilitysite.com/boards/...widcomm-axim-x50v-x51v-state-development.html ), and the same error is given if I copy these files from the Broadcomm SDK (BTWCE-1_7_1_5201-SDK.zip)
Firmware of the HTC Touch2 NLD:
R 3.48.25.27
G 61.41t.25.31H
D 1.28.66092
Any suggestions on how to fix the problems with the BT stack?
(install custom firmware is not an option, due to legal issues)
Thanks in advance.

Can somebody be fair to say in which condition they succeed to make it work with XDA II / QTEK 2020. I have tried to install widcomm stack as explained in other thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=11729&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
But with 2.2 or 2.06 rom I only get not enough memory when I try to start it.
So which version of Rom, Radio and Extend can be used with widcomm BT stack. and does it really work with HD ipaq BT Headhones ?
Thank you
i dont believe that any of the bluetooth stacks support a2dp which is as far as i know required to get stereo sound to such a headset
Ipaq Bluetooth headphones does work with XDAII
I have made it worked with XDAII, but you have to use either Widcomm stack version 1.0.0.3500 or 1.5.0.2000.
My ROM version is 1.72, Radio 1.17 and my own Customized Ext. ROM. I did try it with 2.2 ROM but the BT stack is a bit unstable (every now and then it reported not enough memory, especially when you have lots of thing loaded on Today screen) so I downgraded back to 1.72.
I also had this headphone worked with PC using IVT Bluesoleil stack.
Thank you I will try to downgrade again to 1.72. rom.
Is it possible to post me the complete reg modification I am not sure that in the thread wher I got the widcomm stack http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=11729&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
it is a complete and I expect to be the reason of the memory trouble ?
Another fact is that I am using a french version of 1.72 ??
Thanks for any help
The complete reg modification is on this page:

Cheers,
I finally succeed to install the widcomm stack with Stero Profile . The way I used is :
1) Remove [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\BTIcon]
2) Remove [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Transports\BuiltIn\3]
3) Reset
4) install "Broadcom Widcomm 1.5.0.0801 PPC.cab" which is somewhere in the forum
5) copy all the files of Widcomm 1.5.0.200 in windows directory
6) Install Platformxxx.reg
7) reset
8) Install "Broadcom Corporation BT-PPC AV.cab" included in the file I found in the forum in "Broadcom Corporation BT-PPC AV.zip"
And now I can pair and use HP BT stereo Headphones whitout anyproblem on any version of the Rom.....
Just buttons of the headphones are not working is it the same for all ?
and Headset profile doesn't work anymore whith my BT Headset.
I will try with my BT GPS and BT Stowaway Keyoard and Mouse.
Hi all,
I've just recently upgraded to the above ROM- everything else seems to be fine but I've just realised that the 'Settings' for BT are slightly different to my original rom version.
I can pair the JAM fine with the PC but it won't let me connect. As I look at the BT settings, I can see the following tabs: Mode, Devices and COM Ports; it's the COM ports that has changed. It's got New Outgoing Port and New Incoming Port. When i select either of these I can't assign any port number; the drop down list is blank.
P.S. I was able to connect fine via BT using my original ROM v1.00 or something.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
hey man
i just posted another querry regarding the card reader ...
hope u read it !!
getting back to yr problem
follow the instructions on this link and yr problem will be solved (HOPEFULLY)
http://howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=544932
I remember reading that link a while ago but I got the BT working without Pocket Tools software...
Anyway, I've tried both versions from the website but after installing either of them, the connect via bluetooth in Tools of ActiveSync is not there; just the IR. As soon as I uninstall the software it's back there.
I thought I had mastered the myth of Jam and Bluetooth- looks like back to square one!
Sorry - I'm just impatient- reinstalled and re-paired a few times and all is fine now.
Thanks for your help.
reinstalled what may i ask? im having this exact problem at the mo
Instructions from the top of my head (excuse any errors)
1) I removed the Pocket Bluetooth tools from remove programs
2) Perform soft reset and remove any existing paired devices
3) Reinstall the Bluetooth Tools (i used the an earlier version)
4) Select ActiveSync check box
5) The device should be paired
6) Go to to ActiveSync on PPC; go to tools and you should see Connect BT with ***
This should work.
Hi everybody
Some posts ago I asked questions to find right parameters to connect with my BT 77 bluetooth GPS.
Using VisualGPSce I finally found COM5/38400 as parameters to connect with. Knowing that, I used Via Michelin 4.4 with those parameters and wait ...
Some minutes later I obtained the satellits signals in the GPS test screen of ViaMichelin but after that ViaMichelin got frozen.
I'm near the goal but something is missing.
Thanks for your help.
Appareil QTEK 2020
ROM 1.72.02FRA
RADIO : 1.14.00
PROTOCOLE : 1337.24
EXTROM : 1.72.603
Bluetooth driver Microsoft or Widcomm
I'ts me again
I tried to replace the Microsoft drivers by the Widcomm ones with a .cab found on the net.
1 : Delete of key HKLM\Services\BTIcon to uninstall Microsoft drivers
2 : Install of BluetoothGPS.cab to install Widcomm drivers
It has been great during one hour.
Via Michelin 4.4 was OK with my GPS BT77 on port 7
After that I got "Bttray : "the BT radio failed to turn on due to insufficient driver memory available" and "BTTrayCE BT could not be correctly initialized".
Of course memory is actualy not concerned.
Then it has been impossible to turn bluetooth ON without obtain the message "BTTrayCE BT could not be correctly initialized"
I think the .cab to install Widcomm was not good because during installation I got messages about the fact that e-PocketSetup was not a valid official version.
Is it possible to find a good installation for Widcomm drivers (or others) for Windows CE 2003 ?
The problem is this Microsoft driver for Bluetooth.
How to find another one ?
Thanks
Hi!
I've googled all day long to find a working tutorial to install the Microsoft bluetoot stack in Vista. I've tried everything but nothing helped. I try to write a bluetooth application to communicate with my pda. It's absolutely necessary to install the MS bluetooth stack so please help me!
Thanks!
i believed it was nativly a part of vista it sure is on my hp laptop
on my thinkpad there's the broadcom but i want to use the ms stack. there are possibilities to change that but i don't exactly know how that works! the problem also is that i can't really chose the driver i want to because the auto installation can't be aborted!
i want to write an application with the 32feet library and i have problems with the communication between the pda and the laptop and i think that it is caused by the wrong stack!
Does nobody have an idea?
