if im not mistaken you need some sort of OBEX transfer on the phone... I THINK.. maybe someone can back me up or break me down on this!
It was working...
The problem is it was working alright only after I got something sent over to me by another phone via Bluetooth I have lost Synch partnership! Now everytime I try synching with my system it only show Serial Port as services available and not Active Synch as earlier!
That is the worst title you can think of. You may have got your answer earlier if not for the stupid title.
Go to activesync, on the connection setting, add your bluetooth serial port to it.
Thanks...
Thanks for your comments. The problem is I have already done what you have said, but my phone recognises my system as "Serial Port" or "Active Synch" not both together....

So, what is your problem? Just choose the "Active Sync" when your phone recognise your PC as "Active Sync". Please state your problem clearly.
hmmm, i think you've been hit by a virus phone,you dnt have a choice, only HARD RESET :evil:

When I pair my phone with the system the services it shows on the phone is only "Serial Port" and not "Active Synch". So when I try synching via Bluetooth from the Active Synch on the phone I get a message "Please pair a phone with Active Synch". I am not being able to make my phone "realise" that there is Active Synch on my system!

Hmm.. there seems to be communication problems between you and me too No worries. Anyway, just to confirm, that you have done this already.
Go to Active Sync.
Click on 'File'->'Connection Settings'
Check (tick) 'Allow connection to one of the following'
At the list below, choose the COM port that your bluetooth is attached to.
Delete the bluetooth pair (on your phone)
Re-pair (match) your bluetooh again (on your phone).
If fail, try another COM port at the 'Allow connection to one of the following'
Have done that
I have done what you have told me. The problem is my phone doesn't even recognise that my system has Active Synch via Bluetooth. All it show is Serial Port! It was working fine until I tried the dial-up funtion to connect to internet via GPRS. Since then when I pair it shows my phone as a modem. I have tried unpairing pairing several time no luck :?
Kull, I had a similar problem where my phone would not recognize the ActiveSync connection and would show it as serial port. Turns out that the port was unchecked in ActiveSync's connection settings. Hope this helps.
i had a similar problem...i deleted everything on bluetooth devices and ports on desktop pc and started from scratch...also soft reset the device...it worked for me...
Tried all but...
I have tried several things, including hard resetting the phone, installing Active Sync, repairing, problem just refuses to go!
You did create a port in bluetooth right. Control Panel, Bluetooth see pix...
Then select this port in ActiveSync.
Done that...
Yeah this is all fine, I think the problem is on the phone, somehow some port or something is blocking something.... if only I knew....
i´ve the some problem, and i remember that deleting a file on ppc, the problem was solved, but i don´t remember what file

Thanks, hope u remember it some day, cause the problem is still there.
Found a possible "solution" for some people who have been having problems estabishing a BT AS Partnership with their Universal and a host computer running AS. What I found was you may need to edit the registry to fix the problem. Here's what happened to me yesterday:
Morning: Hard reseted my device and installed all my software apps at my work computer via AS in USB mode as a Guest. Note: I have not set up a partnership with any computer (either USB or BT).
Evening: Got in my truck and paired my JasJar to my BT GPS receiver via a BT Serial Port. Used TomTom and navigated home.
Late Evening: Got home. I wanted to set up a BT AS Partnership first so I went through the procedures of pairing my device and my home computer. And guess what, it didn't work. My JasJar would not see that AS was an available option on my home computer (NOTE: Before Hard Resetting my device in the morning, I had previously established a BT AS Partnership with my JasJar so I know my machine supported that profile). What the @?#~! Ok. I did a search of the word "sync" through the registery. Came up with an interesting issue. Under the registry entry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Ac tiveSync\
In that directory I saw a folder listed as: 000a3a051d0f (This folder is specific to my device (more below)). I was wondering what this was since I did not have any BT ActiveSync Profiles set up yet. When I looked in it, I realized immediately that this is the Device Profile for my GPS RECEIVER!!!! What the hell was it doing in this directory I asked myself. So I deleted the folder 000a3a051d0f from the directory:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Ac tiveSync\
And guess what? I was able to establish a partnership via BT immediately!!!
Wow miguel, this seems to be the answer. Finally after sooo long I get a possible solution. Now even I see a mysterious folder in the exact place u have mentioned. This problem occurred after I transferred a file to a Nokia phone. So this must be the issue. Can check only after I return from my hols though. Thanks again.

Bluetooth - can pair but not sych????

No idea what has happened here????
Friday it was working fine. Now, when i try and synch via Bluetooth with the laptop I get an error saying 'Unable to connect with a PC that supports Active Synch'.
I cannot think of ANYTHING I have done in any settings on either??? I've searched and come up with loads of info on Active Synch and com ports etc and a process to go through but I didn't have to faff about with all this when I got it working first time?? Synched by cable, disconnected, set up partnership via PC. Synched via Bluetooth no problem.
Now I get this error. I've deleted devices on both and can re-pair OK but as soon as that's done I cannot connect. Any thoughts appreciated. I'm contemplating a hard reset first, followed by a bloody re-flash if needed. Real pain.

When you do the pairing on the phone, do you see "ActiveSync" in the PC's service list? If yes it means the config is OK on the PC, otherwise it would show as "Serial Port".
I've had the same kind of problem where I did have the "ActiveSync" but it would still give me the error you mentioned, I deleted the pairing, turned BT off/on on both the PC and phone, removed the COM port check in ActiveSync, ON, then activated it again, paired again and it was fine. It can be the PC blocking access or asking confirmation too. The stupid bluetooth stack I had on my previous laptop would sometimes ask for confirmation whether to accept the incoming connection or not... but the prompt stupidly wouldn't show up unless I manually clicked on the BT tray icon on the PC.
I'll look a that next time if it happens, thanks. Ended up doing a hard reset

Bluetooth connection?

Hi,
I can't get my kaiser connected to my vista x64 machine. I opened bluetooth on my computer and my phone and got both to search for bluetooth devices, but they both found nothing.
Help please?
Thanks.
Run the search on one only, after checking that the other one is set in discoverable (visible) mode.
yes discoverable, also accept incoming beams, idk if that would do anything but I always have it on.
Ok, well the they can see each other now, but they won't sync.... So weird.
edit: NVM, I got it working... though its really slow...

paired but not connected bluetooth issue

Hi,
I have some problems with connecting my NS to pc. What I expect is a "file transfer" or "active sync" connection but instead of that my pc gives me only one option to connect as "audio headset". I have tried everything but there are no other services available on my pc. NS shows in bluetooth menu "paired but not connected" but when I hit this option, nothing happen. It's a bit strange because there is no problem in my car. There goes automaticaly (maybe becouse this is a kind of audio headset).
Does anyone have a clue what is wrong with my NS bluetooth connection (or with myself maybe?)
any suggestions welcome,
greetz

Happens to me sometimes..just unpair and then pair it again
Sent from my Nexus S
I did that many times, doesn't help
yeah this happens to me too, repairing usually fixes it. i've had it on my nexus one and my nexus s but it seems to be better with the s,

[Q] Bluetooth - Belkin Music Reciever - Can pair but not connect

Hi
I really hope someone can help:
I bought a Belkin Music Reciever.
It works fine with my iPhone using PIN code '0000' when connecting, but when I try to connect with the Galaxy Tab, it can pair - but not connect. It never ask's me to enter a PIN code, but only to confirm the pincode, and I cant even see what code I am confirming, I can just press "Accept" or "Deny". It tries to connect, but goes back to the status "Paired". I tried unparing, I tried resetting to factory, and what else I can think of, but nothing works.
I think that the problem is that it never ask's for a pin-code, and therefore I can't enter the '0000' which is required to connect.
Please, any ideas?
Bump - no ideas?
