I tried to search this but the only thing I could find was a thread that walked you through the setup but when I tried it, nothing happened.
Here is what I got:
T-Mobile, T-zones workaround for Edge.
Can I tether my MDA to my laptop via USB cable to use Edge. If so, someone please walk me through it.
Thanks,

I've been trying this too but wasn't very successful. I've tried setting up everything myself from my knowledge, but I guess that wasn't enough.
So I found a program called PDAnet. It is supposed to be an excellent program to do exactly what you're asking- connect GPRS phone to laptop to access internet. Well, I've tried this program but was not successful. For some reason I couldn't get it to work. But do give it a try yourself, it is supposed to be great.
If it works for you, maybe you can share your settings? thanks
I do this all the time, I hate the $9.95 1 day access fee when your in an airport maybe 2 hours if that.
First, ditch the USB cable and link via bluetooth. I only got my USB setup to work once and that after massive messing around. I'm assuming you have bluetooth on your lap top, I've a Dell so your set up may be somewhat different than mine.
First you want to make sure your BT radio is on, all I have to do is right click on the system tray icon and enable radio. Next bring up the BT settings manager and hit make a new connection. On the Com screen in the wizard make sure it's set to discoverable, there is a link under the settings menu bottom of the screen. If this is the first time you've paired the laptop to the Wizard then you'll need to enter the access code, in my case it is 0000 for both. On my laptop I need to go into the manual connection process otherwise it assumes I want to do a file transfer and not a modem connection. Set the connection to dial up modem, if it asks you for a number to dial it is *99# (Tmobile gprs). Thats pretty much it. The only hitch I've found is that I occasionally need to set the wizard to discoverable.
When I want to connect to the internet at admittedly slow GPRS speeds I bring up the BT manager and hit connect, it finds the Wizard, dials it into the GPRS and that's it, I'm tethered and have internet access. It's slow, kind of like a dsl line but for checking emails it's just fine. I used to have a Sierra Aircard which I could pop my SIM into and that worked great and was stable but the new laptop has an express card slot so the Aircard doesnt fit. If you have the older style port and Cingular or Tmobile you can pick these up cheap on ebay.

hi, 5915 has widcomm BT stuck?
If so, pls check the Version of BT.
Go to BT setting, About---and then tap Advance.
You can see the Version of Stuck.
If that version was 1.7.16700 or near to this,
Hopefully it will work.
But i dont have that device, so couldnt test on that.
PLS test as on your own risk.
(If it will not work, you have to hardreset to recover,
pls make back up your date in advance)
Hi,
Thanks for this BT DUN for the hw6900. I just installed it on my hw6945 and works great. But I can no longer use ActiveSync. It seems like the install affected the communication port for the USB. I continue to receive an error. "USB device not recognized" Is there a work around for this. When I hard reset it works, but when I re-install the Blue tooth dial up client it stops working. Thanks in Advance.
hi
i didnt face to that problem cose of this patch on my device.
But i often see that problem on my another devices
in that case, pls try following way
@Start Menu--Setting--Connection
@Tap "ActiveSync Mode" icon
@Swtich to RNDIS Sync Mode or USB Serial Sync Mode
(better try both mode, and then you can find which mode can work on your device)
Thank you, that worked. I can know access the internet using my hw6945 with my Razr V3xx as the dial-up modem.

Ok, pls enjoy that!
Hi, this may be off the topic, but I installed Mobem Mphone on my Hw6945 pda so I could send and receive SMS via the bluetooth dun. The installation went well. The problem is, it does not give me the option to select Bluetooth in the drop down menu. I could only select Serial or Infrared. Instructions says that I should select Bluetooth and then select port BTC1. Does the Bt hack not provide this option or is there something else I should do. If I select Serial I am able to select COM6 which is the outgoing BT serial port on the PDA, but I get an error that no bluetooth serial port could be found on the razr v3xx. So I assume I need to have the Bluetooth BTC1 available before I can do anything. This website shows what I am trying to get done.
http://www.mobem.com/products/mphone26/qtour/6310/5450_mp_setup.htm
Any advice will be greatfully appreciated. Thanks
I might turn out to be stupid, but I see no point in doing such a thing ? what for ? 6945 has SIM card in it and can connect to internet using GPRS, which is more than enough on such a small screen ? I fail to see the point, please, enlighten me ?
I am may be the stupid one, but I know that the hw6945 has sim card and can connect with the gprs. That also works great. I normally use my Razr V3xx for my primary phone and only use my PDA occassionly. Instead of switching the sim card everytime, I just wanted to retrieve the SMS or surf from the pda via BT using my V3xx. I just tried to do the above with Indovisi SMS and that works great, so I will just use that instead. I loved the features of mPhone better so I was trying to get that working. It probaly doesn't make much sense since the hw6900 can do it all. Thanks for your help anyways.
Can anyone help me with this problem i just bought kaiser yesterday but i notice that i cant be able to receive any file transfer from a bluetooth connection.
However i can be able to beam file through bluetooth connection to another phone.
Can anyone help to solve this problem please?
thanks
Please be more specific, in order to get answers to your question. How your problems shows? Could it be just that other devices can not see your Kaiser, if so, then you have to tick checkbox "Make this device visible to other devices" on bluetooth settings.

Mika
As per the last post, your device has to be set to 'Visible' in BT settings and if you want your device 'Open' to receive all beams the uncheck the box in BT settings under 'Security'
There is another setting to check.
Under Start\Settings\Connections there is an icon labelled "Beam". Click this and make sure the box labelled "Allow incoming beams" is ticked. (Not sure about the exact wording but it is the only checkbox on the screen.)
And whilst we're on the subject of ticking boxes....
I'm pretty sure the two boxes under the FTP tab in the bluetooth setting need to be ticked aswell...Could there BE anymore boxes to tick for 1 simple operation?!
Similar Issues
I am having similar issues, but a bit more severe. Kaiser wont see my laptop that has a USB bluetooth dongle. It can see my bluetooth headset just fine. But it refuses to see my desktop and my desktop refuses to see it. Any suggestions

This sounds like a problem with your laptop/dongle, if your kaiser is able to see other things...
What rom are you using? I was using alex's rom for a while but he some how removed the ftp tab in the bluetooth settings and I was never able to receive any files. I switched over to sleuth's rom and it fixed all my problems.

It's the same in Dutty's new ROM. The FTP tab is gone, and now I (and a few other people) can't send/receive via bluetooth.
Technical intervention is required here ...
I'm facing the exact same problem with my TyTn 2, but here are some spacifics that require an expert's opinion...
1. The device sends perfectly...
2. When it comes to recieving, here's the low-down:
-I tried sending a pairing req. from my computer (through my BT dongle) & the phone received the req.
-After the pair, the computer sent & the device received (no problem until now)...
-I tried sending another file (from my Nokia 6300) & there was no response from my phone...
-I tried sending from a Nokia 6260, the phone received without even the need to pair!!!
What I want to know is the technical reason for this to happen???
P.S.
Here are the options set on my device:
-Receive all incoming beams (Checked)
-Turn on BT (Checked)
-Make this device visible to other devices (Checked)
-Authentication (Passkey) required (Unchecked)
I think it would be a whole lot easier if you just packed your phone up and sent it to me. I would uh, take care of it for you.
Bluetooth beam fixed

Thanks alot k101d for the quick response, but as I'm quite skeptical when it comes to messing around with my phone's internal configuration or registry files & so on, I would like to know the source from which you got the .CAB file, & what it exactly does (on the inside of course)...
Many thanks again, dude...
Oh, thanks a lot k101d.
Till today I was so dissapointed with this BT of mine (it costs about 100 €).
It worked !!!
Yo costas2by4AIO,
sorry if I'm gonna be bothering you, but bare with me & my desperate questions...
What exactly were you suffering (concerning BT) from before applying the .CAB file, & what was the result that satisfied you?
Hi Guys,
Need Help......
I am not able to beam more than one file altogether with my HTC tytn II
Please help me to figure out, How can I beam files altogether to other Bluetooth device instead of one by one.
Thanks,

I can't download this .CAB file any more ........anyone could help?
Or any way to fix my bluetooth problem.
I can not send or receive file with another PPC or even my computer.........
Please someone help
I do have the same problem. I can't send or receive files (contacts, video, photo, music, ringtones) from other phones.
Already tried HTC patchs, but no solution at all.
Tried to download that file, but the link is not availlable. Can someone post the file again or have another solution ?
Hi all,
I am on Dutty's apr-29 rom and here is my issue..
My kaiser is connected to my work pc with activesync installed and i am unable to use internet on my device... I can update htc weather with no worries but the pie and skyfire doesn't work... the strange thing is that netfront browser works just fine so iam not sure if its a proxy issue or not???
I would like to use skyfire if possible so pls let me know what can i do to make it work.
Thanks alot
First thing I'd try is to reboot the computer AND soft reset the phone. If that doesnt work, try disabling advanced network... under connections usb to pc.
ps- in the future, its recommended NOT to start a new thread for something like this, but post it in the rom's thread (duttys in your case)
hi, i have the same problem...but I still using the standard ATT rom...

Hi,
Thanks for the quick reply, I tried what you suggested but still no luck..
I honestly don't know...the fact that you are able to update the weather but not others has me stumped. Has it always behaved this way? Can you do a complete system backup using sprite and hard resest, before you restore, connect it to activesync (you do not need to configure it to sync with your device, iow just cancel the first screen) and see if you can use pie or check your email. If you can then there must be a problem with your settings somewhere, but if you cant then just use sprite for a full system restore and you should be back to where you were and maybe someone else can help.
For what its worth when I first got my tilt it would not use the internet no matter which way I tried (ota or activesync). Then it magically just started working.
hello once again,
Ok so here is the thing... i played around with it a bit more and was able to get pie to work.. but everything else still doesn't work (windows live, skyfire, etc..)
I went to connections>>advanced>>select network>> on this screen i selected "My ISP" for the top menu and "My Work Network" for the bottom menu... By making this change pie is now working but still no luck with skyfire..
Note: i do not have a data plan so MY ISP menu is empty, i usually use skyfire with wifi or when connected to my laptop at home
PS: I didn't do a hard reset because i dont think it has anything to do with rom upgrade...i have flashed my device like 47 times in last 2 months and have had the same issue with every rom i've tried including the original htc rom. Everything works jsut fine when when my device is connected to my laptop at home using activesync.
I think you would still have the problem after a hard reset. Mine has the problem now on the standard Tilt ROM. The wierd part is it didnt when I first set it up and was running the internet through cerdisp. I guess I need to look into it too, but I havent been going crazy trying to find it.
What version of activesync are you using?
Iam using Activesync 4.5..
Have you tried disabling your windows firewall?
Dumb Question
If the phone is connected to your work PC, why would you use the browser on the phone and not the work computer?
If you are worried about what the boss might see - here's the problem with that - can't they just monitor the server traffic anyway, whether you use the phone or the computer, since you would be using the work's server?
What i do at work - first make sure there are no keyboard loggers - second use the internet on the phone and disable the ethernet on the computer.
I remember an option somewhere in the syncing process about allowing income data connections - I dont know exactly what it does, but i will try to find it and post something
EDIT - it was an option to allow wireless incoming data to phone while connected to activesync.
If your talking about tethering, then you're doing it wrong.
Make sure your Activesync isn't connecting to your phone in the first place. Turn off the "USB" connect in the settings for Activesync.
THen go on your phone and open up the "windows" and look for a file called "intshr" or something like that. Open it up and then hit connect.
You don't need to change any settings for the Media Net if you're using the AT&T rom.

Well the only reason i wanna use my device and not the work pc is beacuse all the major sites like hotmail, youtube, facebook are blocked but they all work on my device using "only" netfront browser..

you must edit the registry
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services]
"AllowLSP"=dword:00000000

Hello peeps
Newbie to the diamond and windows format on phones so please be gentle,
How can I get my diamond to receive files pics etc via bluetooth? every time I try I get unable to connect on either my nokia or my laptop, but I can send no problem from my diamond.
Thanks
Glenn
You have to "open" your phone for incoming files. Have you tried that?
Go to Start -> Settings -> Comm Manager and activate bluetooth. Then click settings -> Bluetooth (still in Comm Manager).
There is a tab called Mode (or something?, second from the left). Both of the options there should be checked.
Now you should be able to find your phone from your computer and send files to it.
When sending files from your phone I think it automatically starts the bluetooth, sends the file, and then closes the bluetooth.
Hope this helps
Thanks
Just tried that, the 2 boxes that are checked say, turn bluetooth on and let me be visable, still didn't work, my laptop connects to my diamond asks for pin code, enter same pin code on both devices, my pc goes to send but is unable to. exactly the same when trying to send from my nokia, any other ideas please.
Thanks Glenn
Start - Settings
Connections Tab
Beam
Check - Receive all incoming beams
Give it a shot.
All the best
Welldone mate thats the one
Chuffed to bits now

Happy to help
