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...

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.
Adieu..

F.E.A.R means F***K EVERYTHING AND RUN.
Does'nt seems to work on my htc touch !
Even after removing the soft, BT doesn't work anymore... May be must try an hard reset or flash again the phone.
Otherwise, the soft is in german language, where/how to modify/find the english version ?
Best regards.
Hi,
I downloaded the latest version of the Gmail client to my phone and installed it - which went fine.
When I run it, I get java.lang.error message and it fails to load. I see other people have had this error too, but no one has a solution that I have seen as yet (aside from reverting to the older version, which is more of a workaround than a solution)
Anybody else solved (or had) this problem?
thanks
John
Got the same problem- just set up Gmail on the normal client for now.
Yeah, im using that too, but i like the look of the new gmail client but am struggling to find a fix for this,
anyone else?
Unfortunately it seems fairly common, and no particular fix for it. its cross-platform
:EDIT:
looks like a problem with the Jar file that gets downloaded I grabbed the JAR direct from
http://gmail.com/app/v2.0.6/L1/gmail-g.jar and it works perfectly!
tried the work around. works for me too.
Sorry for being a noob about this, this is my first WinMob device. So i got the jar, when i try to install it its asks for the URL or the "midlet"?
What am i doing wrong?
Thanks
it shouldnt do that, are you using the jar file I linked to?
It should just compile and run.
If you do
Start Java, then menu>install>local files> the name of the Jar
What happens?
Where do you guys get the gmail prog from? I cant find it any where. Nvm i got it, same error too.

The worst thing is the truely ugly icon. Can that be changed?
Problem is now I have two in my Programs. One works fine but the other comes up with the same error. Neither shows up in Remove Programs. How do I get rid of the one that doesn't work?

start Java-menu-actions-uninstall
choose google mail rather than gmail to remove (I think).
Thanks a lot, fards.
Thanks a lot fards, works perfectly now.
If only Google could fix their links, now that would be about time.

I have the same on my old device, Mitac Mio A701. This is probably normal for Windows mobile device. Check out this thread too. there are solutions for this...
the most simple and elegant solution:
just add activesync to exclusive list in the task manager...
1. when you'll check and get activesync on (uninvited)
2. go to task manager.
3. Click and hold on the word Activesync and then select from the pop-up "add to exclusive".
4. go to exclusive tab and thick activesync (repllog.exe).
done. worked for me many times (many ROMs)
i've tried this one (thanks to KukurikU) ...and so far so good.
i think its still running in the backround somewhere but i can't see it.
will try the other ones suggested...for a permanent fix later
cheers

yes you are right, you only prevented the application UI from running, the processes that's related to activesync are still running. there are several of them, so you may only have killed 1 or 2.
i don't understand why you want to kill activesync permanently. how do you sync your contacts and calendars and all that? :S

i don't wanna kill it permanently...i just don't want it running in the backround and the fix that i applied works fine for me but i don't understand why its running??
Kill ActiveSync Process when idle
Please see this...which I believe is an elegant solution to ActiveSync continous running...

I found this buried somewhere in either the Microsoft Active Sync help, one of the MS forums, and maybe here, too. But it was pretty obscure.
Caveat: I have NO CLUE as to WHY this should work, but it did.
Go to SETTINGS -> SYSTEM -> USB to PC.
Whatever the setting is, change it. It worked for me, despite the fact that it was the setting that I had to change to get Active Sync to work in the first place. I have no clue as to why the setting that would not let Active Sync work before now made it work now.
Just to really mess me up, as I check it now after having flashed S.V.I.'s Angel v.4, the USB to PC setting is changed back, but Active Sync has been working perfectly ... well, as perfectly as it ever did.
Sure hope this helps.
no. if i change it, it doesn't read it at all
thanks for trying though. i had some hope lol
Hmm. Try using DotFred's task manager to clear your duplicate notifications. I'm pretty sure it's already part of your ROM. Also clear your temp files out with ClearTemp. Cooks tend to forget this one, but it's a damn useful little program.
Chances are the first step will cure your problem. Shut the phone off completely in between steps, too.
