Can sync via USB but not via Bluetooth

Am setting up my Tytn II with a new Toshiba Satellite Pro U300 laptop. I have no problem with syncing via USB but cannot get Windows Mobile Device Center to see the device via Bluetooth.
Half the problem may be the Toshiba Bluetooth software, which takes over the standard MS bluetooth software, although I managed to use the Tytn to share an internet connection without much fuss.
On the handset, when I pair it with the PC it sets up a COM port (COM9) and Wireless Stereo support - should it have another option under Partnership settings or something?
On the PC it sets up a dial up networking connection and a Network Access (PAN) connction, both of which seem to work fine. I can browse the Bluetooth shared folder on the phone or PC without problem, so what am I missing with regards to syncing???
Any ideas would be appreciated, but please document it clearly as I am sure I am missing something obvious.
Thanks in advance

The Bluetooth and Windows Mobile Device Center Dilemma

Hey everyone!!
Did anyone manage to connect his HTC Wings via Bluetooth to the PC and Sync it with WMDC?
It works with cable but not Bluetooth (BL).
I appreciate comments.
Thanks

It worked pretty easy on my S730. Make sure you enable BT on the phone and your computer. Pair the PC with the S730 and start ActiveSync on your mobile. Select the option 'Connect via Bluetooth' and that was it (for me).

you seem to be using activesync, however i use windows mobile device center with windows vista x32... so the procedure is different and much more problematic it seems... not just with the s730 but with all wm devices

I use Windows Vista Business (32-bit) and I needed to upgrade Mobile Device Center. It works without any problems afterwards. The only disadvantage is that I need to manually connect on my phone, before it starts synchronizing. I would rather have it syncronized whenever it is near my laptop.

it doesnt work for me. bluetooth is turned on in both devices.
does anyone have any suggestions?
i have the toshiba bluetooth stack software, do you use that too??

I had the same problem. Open you WMDC and go into Mobile Device Settings and select Connection Settings. Under Allow connection to one of the following: change the selection from Bluetooth to COM7.
Then open your device and set up your bluetooth connection again. You should see Activesync now.
You are most likely using the Toshiba Bluetooth Stack instead of WIDCOMM.

IT IS NOT WORKING
AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
this is so STUPID
when i try to set up on my phone then it says "you have no partner for activeysnc, get one?"
i say YES and choose my computer
then i can select a port a one point and i CANT select 7
whats the solution!=?!

From your response I think you are trying to set the COM port on your device but you should be changing it in Windows Mobile Device Center.
I'll go step by step in case I was not clear.
1- Disconnect your Wing from your computer.
2- Open Windows Mobile Device Center
3- The only option should be "Mobile Device Settings"
4- In Mobile Device Settings you should have two option Connection Settings and End a partnership, select Connection Settings.
5- Under the second check box "Allow connection to one of the following" there is a drop-down box which should currently read "Bluetooth". In the drop-down box change that selection to COM7.
Note: If COM7 is not available, then I suggest you uninstall your Bluetooth device drivers and then reinstall them.
6- Close Windows Mobile Device Center
Now return to your device.
Delete any existing Bluetooth connections to your computer. and reestablish your Bluetooth connection. You don't need to change any COM settings on your device. Just establish your connection and you should have the Activesync option once it is reconnected.
This is under the assumption that you are running the Toshiba Bluetooth Stack on your computer. If you are and it doesn't work, I'm all out of ideas.

I should have specified that as of Step 2 above, this is all done on your computer not your smartphone, i.e. HTC Wings.
Your problem with Bluetooth is on the computer not the device, most likely.

this doesnt work... i did all the things like u told me on the computer.
then i go to my phone and try to connect from activesync via bluetooth and it says that no computer with a partnership could be found?? even though i actually made bluetooth partnership with my pc. when i added my pc to my bluetooth devices list on my HTC it told me that my pc supported 2 services: stereo audio and com port. i ticked com port... it doesnt seem to help.
on my pc, when i open the bluetooth stack software from toshiba i can see my phone has a partnership with my pc. but it has a network symbol on it.. is this supposed to be like that? ah this is so frustrating? any suggestions?

The only difference I see between your set up and mine is that I don't have a connection appearing on my computer.
So when you open your Bluetooth Settings on the computer, I don't have a saved connection with my Smartphone. The only place I see a connection between my computer and my device is on the device itself.
So my last suggestion is to delete both connections. The one on your computer and then the one on your device.
Open your device and reestablish a connection from your device to your computer. You will be asked to enter the password on your computer but when you open your Bluetooth Settings, you may not see a saved connection.
Also, go back and make sure that in Windows Mobile Device Centre, the connection is for COM7 and has not reverted back to Bluetooth. What you described has only ever happened on my computer when the connection was not set to COM7.

Something currious happened with my device when I was reestablishing my Bluetooth connection, which may be of interest to you.
I erased my original Bluetooth connection and while reestablishing it my device was also connected to my computer with the USB cable. When I paired the device, there was no option for ActiveSync. I disconnected my device and then started the Bluetooth pairing over and this time ActiveSync was available.
Does this help?

Any of you guys who have sucessfully pairedd WDMC in Vista with S730 over bluetooth use original MS out-of-box bluetooth drivers?

I've only used the Toshiba and Widcomm Bluetooth Stacks and have been able to sync with both on Vista.

there is the problem: "You will be asked to enter the password on your computer but when you open your Bluetooth Settings, you may not see a saved connection."
because as soon as i enter the bluetooth password on my phone and computer, there appears a bluetooth connection in the manager from toshiba. this connection has a "network" symbol and the services offered are com port and stereo audio. thats not much is it? and also when i click "connect" an error comes up.. connection couldnt be established or something.
i hate this. how can be a SIMPLE task so problematic?
toshiba drivers are working fine. send and receive works. and my phone is fine too. the wmdc work fine as well via USB. i also installed the wmdc UPDATE..... wtf right?!

Hey A.Bagatov,
I'm at a complete loss to understand why you can't get WMDC to work with your phone over BT. You've done everything I've done but unlike you I was able toe stablish the connection.
The only other thing I can think of is to download the latest BT drivers from Toshiba. But before you install them, make a copy of the TosBtChk.dll file and once you've completed the installation of your new BT drivers, replace the new TosBtChk.dll with the one you saved. This will stop you from receiving the trial period notification.
If that doesn't work, then maybe replace your Toshiba BT stack with the Widcomm stack. You'll need to locate a version compatible with your computer.

i would like to get widcomm and get rid of the problems.
so where can i get the widcomm stack? and how do i figure out if its compatible with my laptop?
its sony vaio

You have to understand Widcomm is not a free replacement for your MS drivers. Its commercial and it can only be obtained with some BT hardware, not as stanalone product AFAIK. As that, it is a bit complicated to make it work with unsupported device (but quite possible). And where to get it? Generally, if you are able to pirate, you are also able to google.
However, I assume you have legal OS installed on your Sony laptop - why not to tell MS they BT drivers SUCK A BIG TIME? Go tell them its crap that does not EVEN WORK TOGETHER WITH THEIR OWN UTILITIES.

I've also got a Sony Vaio, SZ45, and on the Notebook Review forum, there is a thread that discusses replacing the Toshiba BT stack with Widcomm, which you can get free of charge. The thread offers a modified file which should be sufficient to enable Widcommon your laptop. Here's a link to the general forum http://forum.notebookreview.com/forumdisplay.php?f=8

Microsoft are not the developers of the Widcomm Bluetooth Stack, it's owned by Broadcom. It can be obtained for free, however, you're right in saying it may not work with non-Broadcom hardware. In A.Bagatov's case, the issue is with Toshiba not Microsoft. They are the one's who developed a driver that is not always compatible with non-Toshiba products.
According to other posts I've, the Microsoft generic Bluetooth drivers would appear to work just fine with Windows Mobile devices, however, I was unable to get it working and did not pursue the matter any further once I was able to get the Toshiba BT Stack to function.
I can sympathize with your frustration, but your post does not help him solve his problem.

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!

Bluetooth PAN and Mac OSX not working

Hi,
I'm trying to use the Bluetooth PAN setting in the Internet Sharing program with a Macbook (Mac OS X 10.5.4). I successfully paired the laptop and Kaiser. I start Internet Sharing on the Kaiser, go to the Bluetooth icon in OSX, click Tilt and click Connect to Network. This doesn't seem to work. Does anyone have suggestions?
I can successfully get it working with Windows XP so I'm guessing it's OSX's fault?
SPL: 3.56 hard
Rom: NotATreoFan's V1 Final (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=421852)

Might anyone have an idea, or maybe the better question is has anyone ever gotten Bluetooth PAN working with OSX?

It works for me on a mbpro with 10.5.5. It's been a while since I've set it up, but I don't remember doing anything special to get it working.

Make sure you set your shared internet connection to the correct setting ( Media Net or My ISP )
I have found that tethering using MY ISP works the best and seems to have a tad less latency.
I am running a MB Pro C2D with 10.5.3
My "Hack Pro " is running 10.5.2 and is also tethering with no issues.
P.S.
One more thing. Make sure the phone is set to Visible. Although you can pair it , if its not in Visible mode, it will NOT work
Do you get a connection and it just wont give you an active connection or does your laptop attempt to tether and give a network connection error ?

Here's how I'm trying everything. The device and computer are already paired. The device is visible.
Open Internet Sharing.
Set PC Connection to Bluetooth PAN and Network Connection to MEdia Net.
I tap connect, and the status changes to "Device setup finished. On the PC, connect Bluetooth PAN."
On the Macbook, I click the Bluetooth icon on the menu bar, hover over the device's name, and click Connect to Network.
On the device, the status changes to "Connected."
When doing this in Windows, that's it. I can open up a browser, and the internet is working fine. But on my Macbook, I open up a browser, and I'm not connected to anything. I open up the Network preference pane, and nothing is connected. OSX doesn't see the Bluetooth PAN profile is maybe the problem?

Ahhhhh When you pair the phone to the mac, make sure you have internet sharing enabled on the phone before you go into pair mode. Otherwise mac osx doesnt see the PAN capability. I think thats what I had to do.

I tried with Internet Sharing pre-connected, but it still didn't work. I did get it working though! In the network connections, Bluetooth does not equal Bluetooth PAN. I went to the little plus at the bottom, and specifically added a Bluetooth PAN interface, and it picked the device up.
Thanks for all of the help!

Unfortunately, I am on HTC Touch with a WM6.5 ROM, and even though I added the Bluetooth PAN interface manually, my Mac is still not picking up the phone, even though it's been paired successfully and Internet Sharing pre-connected.

OK this is for last year but just in case someone else searches for this a solution I found a while back
Added step open "com port 1" on the WM, not sure where I found that, otherwise the mac keeps "dialing" and the phone says "???? no need to dial, 3G not modem"
These steps work for me on SE Xeperia1 with WM 6.5 and Mac 10.5.8.
http://www.hightechdad.com/2007/05/...sharing-from-windows-mobile-6-to-mac-os-1049/
"Now with Windows Mobile 6, Bluetooth PAN (Personal Area Network) is used. So, if you are on Mac OS 10.4.9, you now have the ability to use a Network Port called “Bluetooth PAN.” Here are the high-level steps you use to enable your Bluetooth Internet Sharing:
1. Turn on Bluetooth and BT discovery on both your WM6 device and your Mac
2. Set up a Pairing between the two devices
My steps + Setup Bluetooth from Phone to Mac. Do it form the phone to the mac not the other way around.
+ Opem Comm port one from Phone bluetooth setup.
3. Enable the Bluetooth PAN port under your Mac’s Network Preferences (Network Port Configurations) by clicking the checkbox
4. Ensure that your devices are “talking together”
5. Start “Internet Sharing” on your WM6 device and click “Connect”
6. On your Mac, it is helpful having the “Show Bluetooth status in the menu bar” enabled
7. On your Mac, from the Bluetooth menu, select “Join Network on [WM6 device]“
8. That is it! (You should have internet connectivity on your Mac, provided you have good signal on your WM6 device). You can even verify that you got an IP address from your WM6 device by going to Network control panel and selecting Bluetooth PAN. Mine shows a 192.168.0.XXX number.
I hope that works. This is a good tip to know if you travel a lot and don’t want to pay for the expensive hotel internet services. Just plug power into your phone and your laptop, connect and you have “dialup” speeds for no additional costs!
If you have questions, write a comment below. If this works for you, DIGG it!
Don’t forget, you will drain your battery pretty quickly and use a lot of bandwidth from your cellular provider (especially if your internet service has a cap)."

Activesync over BT

I've spent several hours attempting to get this working, I've even bought two new BT dongles for my computer for testing.
Is it at all possible to get activesync working over BT on the diamond? Can't seem to get the ActiveSync profile offered... Neither on my PC or my phone!

Same happend to me until I found the right settings after that I just get irritated when my cable connection doesn't work, in other words I just use it whitout even nowing what the settings are, maybey I can help you if you tel me your settings and show some screendumps, after that I can show you some screendumps whit a working bluetooth connection.
Ps I am not giving any garanty just want to keep my own bluetooth connection
Willem

It works fine for me with Mobile Device Center. Remember to enable BT connection on desktop Activesync options, or else the profile won't appear when you pair with the phone.

I've never got BT/AS to work either (and I've spent days trying), as you say, I never get offered the AS service.
I did see it *once* on the Diamond when I was trying to connect another service (maybe Obex) but I didn't realise how important that was at the time.
I'm using XP/SP2 with the Toshiba stack but I've tried the BlueSoleil stack also with the same result.
I'm guessing this is a problem with the Diamond as I can happily connect with my Artemis via BT to the same laptop

Mee too, I saw the AS-service ONCE, but never ever again.. .:'( Tried 3 dongles and probably 6 different stack implementations.
I'm using XP as well, are the only success stories related to Vista?

Never seen it.
A bad-developed thing with MS and activesync, too bad.

I don't now how your guys try to connect I just can tell how my connection works flawless.
First of all and most important problem whit me was that I have to use the phone to make the connection and not the pc/notebook offcourse you have to allow active sync to acces your phone, in my case this is is found at file connection and allow conection for a compoort in my case com7, then I switch bluetooth on at my phone (and not try to sync straight away cause this results often in a faillure ) and then connect true bluetooth at my phone using the comand connect true bluetooth at active sync at my phone.
One of the strange things which have to set is "All connections use this connection and there is selected "USB" this maid seems trange but I believe the compoort is a virtual one which is used to connect at USB for that reason you have to add a compoort before making your connection, if done right your Diamond will ask for it as soon as you setup the bluetooth connection, the last thing can be wrong cause I don't remember quite well how I did the setup of that part, just because I never use any other connection anymore seems I mannaged to get it working.
This way I can even use it as a wireless webcam which can make you do funny things, the danger of it is when some good programmer makes a virus which allow to setup that connection remotley, aswell the connection whit pocketcontroller I don't want to think off what would hapen if someone manage to get controll of my phone.
Don't now or this is helpfull if any questions feel free.
Willem

On my diamond the only service I can find on my laptop is:
Serial Port
Wireless Stereo
AS set to use the same port as the incoming port in my bluetooth manager...

If you set COM ports right, you tie Diamond with PC using Diamond's ActiveSync. Start/Programs/ActiveSync, the Menu|Connect via Bluetooth. It should ask you now to make a new connection. Tap yes, it will search for BT devices. Choose your PC. If you did everything all right, now you will be connected.
(this may be obvious but I had some problems at start; I thought you initiate the connection on PC)

I gues if there is no active sync profile yet you have to create one what maid be possible aswell is that your settings under active sync/options at your phone where you must selct the options which you want to be syncted, if nothing is selected there it will make a connection but will not sync.

This worked for me
To Async using MICROSOFT Stack do the following:
a. open Control Panel and open Bluetooth Devices
b. click Add and add your device. go to Options and mark "Allow Bluetooth devices to find this computer" and "Allow Bluetooth Devices to connec to this computer". you can also mark other options as desired.
c. go to COM ports and add an INCOMING port. it will choose a port for you automatically.
d. go to WMDC/Connection Settings and mark "Allow connections to one of the following.." and choose the port you created.
e. go back to Devices and choose your PDA. choose Properties and go to Services. there you should see all services your PDA provides. one of them should be Active Sync Bluetooth Service. mark it and click OK. your comp and PDA should connect and disconnect a few secs later.
f. on your device, open ActiveSync and under Menu choose Connect Via Bluetooth.

I just provide my solution.
I use IVT BlueSoleil to manage my BT dongle. After installed, the BT dongle could be recognized as a COM port on the PC. Check through the PC device manager to know what the port number is, then adapt in Activesync, select "Allow connections to one of the following", select COM7 in my case.
Enable BT on the Diamond to make it visible to PC, after paring the PC with Diamond, Diamond could recognize the PC provides ActiveSync services.
Go to Diamond's ActiveSync, select connect via BT, PC will automatically accept the connection from Diamond.
P.S I am not a native English speaker, I just wonder if I could make you understood.

I think the majority here isn't a native English speaker, this forum isn't a forum about language but about phones and pda's if someone wants to show how good his/here English is they beter look for another forum.
I think this forum is one of a few where the solution which someone offers weights more then the way its sad, unless its offending.
Untill now (I don't now what I am calling over myself now) I never got any critics at my English which is far from perfect the last thing wasn't nescesary to say even a blindone could see it whitout braille.

I was able to sync my Diamond using WMDC on vista using these steps, with a few modifications.
I had to leave my WMDC "Connections Settings" pull-down box on "Bluetooth" for it to work for me. I'm using a USB dongle, this may be why.
On step (e), after opening the "Services" tab and unchecking, then rechecking the "Active Sync Bluetooth Service" box and hitting Okay, my device would be listed as "Connected" on the main Devices tab for a few seconds before disconnecting (about 3 seconds). I had to initiate step 4 BEFORE the device disconnected. So basically I had 3 seconds to start the Bluetooth sync to get them talking. Haven't had any problems since!
-Mike

This is what worked for me, when not able to get the active sync profile.
In settings for "USB to PC";
turned off 'enable advanced network functionality'

My PC and my Diamond didnt show me any services. Because of that it says no device is paired when i want to connect, although my PC is paired.
I use XP SP3 and the Windows BT Stack.

xp SP3 is a problem ?
cuz nothing work for me

Doesn't work for me either.
Using Vista64SP2.
It worked before but eventually stopped working now.
I see ActiveSync on the Phone and on the Notebook.
AS tries to establish a connection for some seconds but cant do it.
//edit:
Ooook, after Firmware-Flash of new o2 Germany v2.03.207.2 everything's working again. *strange*
