Hi all,
I’ve been looking at my XDA IIi for a while now trying to get a serial GPS engine to work with it but without success.
Does anyone know the pin numbers of the serial connections on the connector of the XDA? I can clearly see serial data coming out of the GPS unit with my scope but no apps on my XDA can pick up the signals so there must be an error in the pin connections.
Any help gratefully appreciated
Regards.

This might sound stupid but I have a question. I am trying to connect my xda2i to the internet trough a Motorola v3. The reason I’m doing this is that I don’t need the xda2i as a mobile. I have a Motorola v3 I bought trough the office with an unlimited GPRS access. O2 did a couple of terrible mistakes with my business account and probably being afraid that we are going to sue them, they tried to befriend me by sending me this xda2i. I don’t want to use a new number so all I want to do is connect my V3 with this xda2i. It seems that it won’t work for some reason that eludes me. Is there anyone here able to help me with few ideas?

I have tried this a few times and it appears that the required software is not installed on the XDA IIi.
Why not unlock the XDA IIi and use yout Voda SIM in it?
Xda2i and Bluetooth
Hi guys
Like you I have tried over and over to get my 2i to talk to a bluetooth device and connect to the net ( I brought a small blue tooth modem that I can plug into a Wall phone socket ) , But no Joy .
Ive searced lots of forums and as you have , have been told that some of the software is missing from the blue tooth section . Its a real bummer cos it means we are trapped to wifi or GPRS the latter being very expensive .
Would really appreciate a patch to make this work if any clever people are reading .

Hi,
Please can someone talk me through trying to get BB Connect 4 working with the new HTC S730 (Wings)?
I'm trying to move across from a BlackBerry Pearl, so I know my subscription with my operator (Telenor Sweden) is working just fine.
I've tried using BBC 4.0.0.76 and 4.0.0.84 for WM6 Standard.
I enter BBC app on the phone and click Menu > Register Now. Back on the home page the BB status changes from Not Connected > Network Available > Data Tunnel Available > Not Connected. I have no PIN (Pending) and no IP.
I also tried BBC 2.1.2.39 but this just stays at Not Connected. Any idea why this is not working, since BBC 2 is not supposed to be so fussy about checking if the device is supported?
When I try to connect with the BBC Desktop software, it says PIN is "Unknown Type"
So....
I'm guessing the S730 isn't certified by RIM yet and I need to trick BBC 4 into thinking it's running on a supported device.
Please can someone help with the correct steps? Here are some of my questions:
1. I have the S730 Nordic version so I guess the first thing I need to do is dump the ROM from my own device. Am I better off using the grab_it ROM dumper from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=238945 or using this method http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...x_HowToDumpRom ? I'm struggling so far with the pdocread method as I my device seems to be application locked. I'll post more about this in the S730 ROM thread.
2. Assuming I get the ROM dump, I need to use a Hex Editor to change the GetDeviceInfo from HTC-Wings ( I guess) to a supported device. Can anyone tell me the best device to change this to e.g. HTC-Vox? I've read reports of BBC 4.0 working on the S710 Vox but also people have asked for help hacking it. Which device string should I use?
3. I'm a complete noob when it comes to repacking ROMs and flashing WM devices. Can anyone point me to step-by-step guide to this?
I've tried to read around this subject but I've quickly exceeded my technical comfort zone to put it mildly, so any help with this would be really appreciated!
You carrier needs to support the Blackberry Gateway forwarding. If it does not, from your device, then Blackberry Connect will not work. They literally need to sort of "open ports" on their system.
I tried a Blackberry Connect activation on a Samsung BlackJack II, on AT&T here in the states, with no luck. Same symptoms as you describe.
Read all of the comments here to see what other people have done.
Oh well... get your peoples to enable ActiveSync on your server. Or at least to forward your Email to an outside address.
Good luck,
Matt
I'm not ready to give up on the S730 and BB Connect just yet.
My operator supports BB Connect on Sony Ericsson and Nokia smartphones but say there is no reason why HTC models shouldn't work. I have a colleague with a HTC Tytn II, also with Telenor connecting perfectly with my company BES, so there is some hope.
The hack described in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=294218 basically tricks BBC into thinking it's running on a device which is supported by RIM and your operator. That's what I'm trying to do. That's where I was going with my questions.
But I don't know a) how to dump my ROM b) what devicetype value to set and c) how to repack the ROM and reflash the device.
Has anyone else tried the same thing and can help a noob like me?

Not an option for me, unfortunately. My company only support BES and so either I get BBC working or the S730 goes up on ebay. I'm back to using my Pearl until I get this working.
Is there anyone else out there trying to get BlackBerry Connect working on the S730?
also trying for BB connect
I just tried to install three different version yesterday with no success.
4.0.0.76 (wm5 version)
4.0.0.84 (wm6)
4.0.0.91 (wm6)
http://www.sems.org/entry.asp?ENTRY_ID=276
They all installed properly but did not generate a PIN number, it was stuck at "PIN pending".
It went thru the same sequence "Network Available" --> "Data Tunnel Available" --> "Not Connected"
have not tried version 2.1 yet will do that shortly
Tried 2.1
update:
Tried 2.1 on the s730, it does not function.
If anyone has anymore ideas please post, and i will try it .
I know this is a separate platform, but perhaps bbconnect for the HTC tilt might work. AT&T have it available here http://www.america.htc.com/mobile/connect/8925/
Has anyone tried emoze as a push solution?
Has anyone found a working BB Client for BB Internet Service for The S730?
I see over the years ... nobody read carefull Threads!
Black Berry is a complicate and secure Application!
How they generate a Pin?
The Device Name, Device OS Version and Build Nr. are for the generation importent. It means ... if your modded os have a wrong OS Version and Build Nr. you doesnt get a Pin and you see every time "Pin pending"
How i can fix this?
Try to use a Original HTC Rom. If you get Pin Pending again ... try to reg edit your Build Nr. If its work, you have the right version Nr.s you need and Build Nr.! Then you can ask you favorit Rom Builder for changing does numbers.
Use Black Berry Connect Clients over 4.0.0.90
If you know the right ids ... publish it!
But where can I get the right rom for my HTC S730 and where can I get a BB client over 4.0.0.90
Original Rom ... www.htc.com -> eMember
Black Berry Client ... netrunnerat.4shared.com -> tools

That's a cool site. Thanks.
Also, did you test this on the S730 with your theory?
It dosn't work. No PIN.
New Ideas ?
your carrier needs to allow your phone to access the Blackberry servers. It's a provisioning thing. Call them and try to get it added... try to convince them just to add it and see what happens, even if you don't have a Blackberry. They might have a special thing... like AT&T's Tilt has the ability to use blackberry connect, so AT&T probably has some special feature for provisioning that enables a non-blackberry phone to be provisioned for blackberry service.
Without this connection allowed by your carrier connecting you to RIM's servers... Blackberry Connect will not work.
Prove me wrong. (seriously, because I want to get this working for myself )
I have the blackberry connect service activated for my s730 but can not get a pin number. I will try different versions, if anyone has anymore ideas please post
Thanks

Hello,
I have been given (kindly) due to a dying SE750i a xdaII
I have set up the docking station and downloaded Activesync from Microsoft however when I plug in my xdaII into the dock the sync window appears with the little window informing me it is retrieving my settings with a spinning green graphic.
It has been doing this for 20 minutes now. Initially I thought it had crashed so I removed the phone and got the message telling me it cannot sync as the phone is off, so I placed the phone on again and it started to sync again.
It is charging fine,
The Activesync I downloaded is Version 4.5 from
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmob...ulas/eula_activesync45_1033.mspx?ProductID=76
The xdaII software seems to be ROM version
3.50b.40CS (ROM date 01/13/07)
Can anyone help me get it to connect so I can start to make the phone mine.
Managed to Sync however still think my firmware is out of date, any clues on that?
Also noticed my connection settings for MMS and also mobile web seem to be not there.
Currently using O2 can anyone help on this?
Thank you
Two things:
You have posted you have a XDA II, but this is the forum for the XDA IIi, small difference in name but big difference in what it will do. The IIi, aka Alpine, has WiFi and is stuck on WM2003, the XDA II, aka Himalaya, doesn't and isn't.
If you search on this forum elsewhere you should find a CAB file with the settings for O2, they may even be on the O2 site itself.
First, sorry for my English - i'm from Poland.
So, i have HTC TyTN II Kaiser and WM6.1. I have working Wi-Fi, but in my school it's not working correctly. In school I need my ID and password to get to Internet, but I don't know where is this option in Kaiser. My pocket see signal, but when i try to connect, the signal is lost (red X). And if I want to get to this network in my school, I must install certification (name PJWSTK CA - my school), I install it but it's not working. My friends, with laptops and Windows XP/Vista can connect and they don't have problems.
I try to find some application to more options for my Wi-Fi, wireless etc. Something, what can help me to connect to this network. Maybe something, what make signal stronger or something...
I hope you guys understand me and help me.
Please don't remove this topic.
Anyone, please?...
If you go to settings > connections > wifi > power-mode
you can increase the power of the wifi by choosing 'best performance'.
Other than that i cannot help you, sorry.
best of luck

My only suggestion is to talk to the school, perhab they have a tech that can help you out. I don't think its a software issue so I would definately hunt around campus and try to find the right person to help! I hope this helps!
Thanks, but it's not working. I find something else. I must install certificat.cer and I do it, i have message "Installation OK" but when I try connect to WiFi, they wan't the certificat. It's crazy :/
Have a look here:
http://www.jacco2.dds.nl/networking/windowsmobile-certinstall.html
You usually need several certificates, the root one of the school, possibly a second one for the certification authority, and your personal one.
We don't have personal certificats. My school have only one and nothing else. My teacher told me today, that he's PDA working correctly but he don't remember how he do it. I'll be know that after 3 weeks. So, I must wait.
Thanks you all guys for help.
