BlueTooth Pan - Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys
Just got the Diamond2 from devicewire, and I'm really pleased with it.
One thing that differs from my Touch Diamond is that when I try to use internet sharing my laptop* won't recognise it as a BT PAN device.
I realise this may be a bit premature, but has anyone else experienced this yet? Any fixes out there, or even fixes for the Touch HD which may be appropriate?
Thanks
Stoatie

I have this WM WiFiRouter and Access point (Wifi and BT) on all the time
Sorry just found !!! You now have buy before try version 1.30 had a trial !!!

Bluetooth PAN

I initially had the same problem until I realised I had to go into Internet Sharing on the Diamond2 and click connect once I had selected Bluetpooth PAN as the PC Connection. Once this was done I was able to join the PAN from my Vista laptop.
Hope this solves your problem.

I don't understand what you mean. Do you mean that you think I wasn't pressing "connect" to connect the two devices up?

Initially I paired the 2 devices and connected them via bluetooth. I then tried to join a bluetooth PAN from my laptop and it showed my diamond2 as a bluetooth access point. I pressed connect on my laptop and got an error message.
It wasn't until I realised that I needed to initiate an Internet Sharing connection from the phone first and then join the PAN from the laptop as well (connecting on both devices) that it worked. And it works fine.
Sorry if your problem is different.

Wireless Internet Problem: Tilt crashes my laptop's wifi connection

Hello guys,
I was wondering if you could help an extreme newbie.
I just got my tilt a couple of days ago, and with the help of a friend i have installed Dutty's touchflow rom. My problem is the following:
I have a Sony Vaio laptop that connects to the internet wirelessly through my wireless router. My tilt also connects to the internet through the router. However if i connect the tilt to the vaio for an activesync or to charge, the wireless connection on the laptop crashes. It crashes even if the wifi on the tilt is turned off. It can only be restored if i disconnect the phone AND restart the computer.
Did anybody face a similar problem?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
It's an activesync issue.
When not connected to the PPC , Right click on AS icon in the PC.
Select Connections.
on the bottom you will see.
"Allow wireless connection......"
Mark the check box and your good to go

Hey buddy,
Thanks very much for responding. Tried it but unfortunately no joy. Its like my laptop loses the ability to connect to the router. I can see the connection but it just stays there, tries to get an ip, gets one and then crashes again...
Any other ideas?
what nadavi said, helps when you have problems connectin at your phone not your laptop.
perhaps your problem hs to do woth your network-configuration. AS gives a bridged network-interface trough to your mobile phone, connected via AS.
eventually your real-network-interace-driver or something else has problems with thi network-bridging ... did you tried to install AS 4.2 instead of 4.5 or otherwise?

I bet you have a Intel 2195 or 2200BG wireless adapter in the notebook? There is a problem with some of the drivers for the adapter and Activesync that makes you wireless network disconnect when you plug your phone in for sync. I had the same problem on my former laptop, it went a way with a driver downgrade!!! if I remember correct
Another way of solving it was installing Trend Micro PC-illin 2007 Internet security. It installs some sort of driver that made it work, it sound crazy I know but it worked with that - I and more people that I know got it working that way but I dont´t like Trend Micros software
Hey easycure,
Thanks for this response. I took your advice and went the opposite direction. I do have a 2200BG adapter, but rather than downgrade, i upgraded the driver.
Worked like a charm. Thanks!!
@edi - thanks for your reccomendation too. In the end i did not need to go that way, but thanks all the same.

Yeah it might have been a driver update I did, it was two years ago I had that laptop so I cant remember exactly But I am happy that it fixed it for you - I do remember how frustrating it was
I am having the very same issue. When I connect my Kaiser via activesync the wireless status information immediately appears on my laptop. The internet connection then stops working or only occasionally works. Took me an age to find a related thread! I'm about to update the drivers for the 2200BG adapter so I hope it works!
Cheers

Bluetooth PAN and Vista

Thus far, I've been unable to use my AT&T Tilt as a wireless modem for my Vista laptop. I've partnered them in the MS Bluetooth Stack, then gone to Windows --> Internet sharing and set it to bluetooth pan and media net, then on my computer, gone to "connect to" and opened the bluetooth pan connection. Unfortunately, at this point, my phone doesn't show up as a devic for bluetooth pan. If anyone can offer up some advice, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks
I would also like to add that Bluetooth PAN also doesn't work for me in XP (SP2). It doesn't show up in the the Bluetooth Device Wizard (the one used to add devices with PAN services), but clearly broadcasting is enabled in the options.
Also, just as a side note, I can't get USB tethering to work either...I'd really appreciate any help I can get with this tethering problem. Thanks.
Got it working. I have no idea why, but for some reason when i tried repairing it for the sixth time or so, vista suddenly decided it had drivers to install for my tilt, and it went ahead and installed the modem driver. now everything seems to be working.
By Bluetooth or USB? Or did you get both working?
Why bother with Bluetooth or USB headaches?? Just use WMWiFiRouter and connect to your phone over Wifi.

HTC TOUCH DIAMOND use as modem

hello,
I have an htc touch diamond and I can't use it as modem,
Mention that I have on my pc windows mobile center...
every think is work ok, the only problem is, I can't see it like a modem,
I have found some topics here, on this forum and I have trry some drivers but isn't work,
any ideeas?
thanks very much!
What have you tried? Normally, when your synced, you can start using internet on your pc/laptop by opening the "Internet Sharing" application on your Touch Diamond. After this there'll be some drivers installed on your PC, enabling Bluetooth PAN. These were the only things I need to do on my Vista workstation, after this I was able to browse the internet on my laptop using the Touch Diamond.
It's pretty fast as well, using HSDPA. I can reach download speeds up to 150KB/s! Good luck!
it is in Italian language and I don't understand it very well,
Now I have connect it yo my laptop
I will try to install English language to my phone, because I don't understand very well Italian language...
thanks a lot!!!

Hi, like zmeutz I'm trying to setup my diamond as a modem.
Works great with IS and bluetooth PAN. But what I'm looking for is the diamond as a simple Modem.... It should be possible as when using any kind of "terminal" application over a bluetooth serial link connected to the diamond it does response to AT hayes commands....
However, when I try to use a ipaq to connect to the diamond through DUN it does not work....
I'm trying to do this for two purpose:
1/ Connect my ipaq running TTN6 so it gets traffic information from tomtom server. PAN works, but it's a pain compared to DUN. You need to activate BT on your diamond, run internet share, clik on two fields to set it up. Then click on connect to make it active. Then you need to go back to you IPAQ, before running you application, launch BT, got to settings, click on the diamond short cut for PAN. Then you can can launch your navigator on your IPAQ.... If you loose your connection, you need to start all the process again.....
While with dune, you would just need to activate bt on your phone.... The rest would be transparent as soon as you IPAQ application tries to connect to internet you get the connection...... At least it's the way it worked with my motoroal (razr).....
2/ sending faxes..... For this I need a true modem ;-).
Any ideas other that PAN?
Rgds,

HTC Touch Diamond Internet Sharing Problems
I have a HTC touch Diamond and I did as stated above but my phone asks for server information. But I have unlimited data, why doesnt it just continue on with the Evdo it has?
lol
all you need to do is install Microsoft active sync, then use the usb lead to plug in your diamond.
A menu will pop up, press internet sharing, your computer will recognize the phone as a network connection and drivers will be installed, hay presto your online
You can also use your bluetooth in the diamond and laptop.
Pair your device with the laptop, goto internet sharing, select bluetooth and connect.
Then goto (xp) Start - connect to - bluetooth pan
it will then connect to the device.
This way is slow but it works.
I have also written a guide on how to use you phone as a proper access point, search for it.
and if it doesnt appear
I've tried several times to set up my phone as a modem.
I have installed active sync on my laptop, but if i connect my Touch diamond "NO" menu pops up. Where can i find this menu? On my laptop or phone? And can anyone direct me to it. THNX
HTC Touch Diamond does not support Bluetooth DUN profile.
Its not worth the trouble. I would buy a dedicated usb modem. Only 20-30 Dollars

Using Diamond with Car-PC via bluetooth?

Hi there,
I got a car-pc since a while and have been using my sony ericsson with it... calls get transferred via bluetooth to the computer, as like phonebook in integrated into the car-pc software... all transmitted via bluetooth...
Now with the diamond, how do i set it up as a phone? winXP doesnt recognize other services than the moden funxtion
you should enable Remote SIM access on you Diamond: Start -settings - connections bluetooth SIM acces and also activate the service for your BT connection (do this in the first tab of the BT settings dialogue after connectig)
already done :-( But the Computer doesn't list other functions than modem for the HTC
Do i need any drivers for XP? Usually not...
Using Diamond & CarPC Via Internet sharing over BT
I have a CarPC in my car, it has a 7" touch screen & it is running WinXP and have built in Bluetooth. So for surfing in the internet , MSN, Skype in my car over the carpc i am using my HTC Diamond with the Internet Sharing icon and connecting it via Bluetooth to the carPC so i get FAST Internet over Bluetooth between my carpc and my HTC Diamond.
It works very good - very stable.
Matter of fact it is "capturing" my 3G Internet and pass it over Bluetooth to the carpc.
Solution works very well.
k, but i am not interested in using it as internet connection, i want to phone via the computers hardware, so the car-pc should act as an headset... besides that, he shoult be able to access the adress book and to begin calls... that for, i neeed 2 comports emulated, but how to create them?
could it be because the device is seen as a PDA, and not as a mobile phone?
I know somewhere here on XDA there is a reg hack for earlier devices to make them appear as a mobile phone to car kits. maybe the same thing will help here. I don't know where it is, can only suggest searching, unless anyone else can point you in the right direction....
I used to have PhoneConnector on my CarPC, with PhocoAdapter on the phone. It worked, but now this software is not supported anymore and unfortunately it does not work with WM6.
Freefone is not compatible either.
My good Blackbaron, I believe we users of CarPCs and Windows Mobile are scr...d!
By the way, sharing the 3G connection workds a treat, by USB, BT, Wifi... I just wish Vodafone would allow other ports than port 80
I still didnt realize what 3G is... ^^ I never owned a ppc before...
Well, on the CarPC the internet speed is as great as a DSL line, here is France I measured it at more than 3.5 MB/s (KS20 is limited to 4 MB/s with HSDPA, who knows why). Coming from the crappy Edge Motorola phone I had before, the browsing is truly amazingly fast!

1) Launch the Internet Sharing application on your phone (all WM6 phones have it)
2) Select your 3G connection, and BT or USB, tap "Connect"
3) USB: have ActiveSync installed on the PC, connect the USB cable, it's done.
4) BT: you have to set up a BT PAN hosted from your phone, add your PC to it, it's done.
5) If your provider uses a proxy, setup Firefox to use it (Tools/Options/Advanced/Network)
6) If your provider has a filter on User Agent, then you need the plug-in "User Agent Switcher", to put the same User Agent string as on your phone.
There you go!

Internet Sharing problems via Bluetooth

Hello, I have a problem when I try sharing my PDA's HSDPA to my Computer over Bluetooth.
I often use the Internet Sharing Option on my Diamond to get Internet on my Laptop.
Yesterday I tried the first time to share the Connection over Bluetooth (usually I use the USB)
But it doesn't work!
I open a Bluetooth PAN on my Diamond, then I connect my PC to the PAN.
Everything seams working well! My PC shows me that he is connected to the Diamond's Network Access, Signal Strength: Good, Packets are comming trough...
Now I try to open the Internet (IE 6), but he cannot reach any page! Only sometime he opens a bit of a site... But most times he tells me that there is nothing avaiable...
When I connect my Diamond then on a USB cable and I try it... it works fine...
What am I doing wrong???
P.S.: There is no Firewall, neigther an Anti-Virus
bump or whatever ? help ???
i'd also like to get the info on how to set up a pan on the diamond so i can use it with my oqo 0+
It seams like nobody has any help or anser for this? Is there anybody who shares the same problem?
you are not alone!
tho i'm far from being of any help as i have less of an idea than you!!
Diamond PAN
I have the same problem connecting using BT but it works perfectly using USB
Yep, a friend of mine has the same problems... do you think there could be a bug?
If it is in...
...Active Sync, I will try an older version just for tests
... the Diamond itself?? Don't know
... Windows, i did all Updates, nothing changed
.. Bluetooth Driver, try to update this one.
That are the things where the problem could be... Or are there any other ideas?
