Towa bluetooth fix and ActiveSyncing via Bluetooth - Networking

Hi. I was previously ActiveSyncing ok via my bluetooth dongle, and then I installed Towa's bluetooth fix, which works great with my GPS system.
However, now I can't ActiveSync with my laptop anymore.
It could be something else, but before I waste a lot of time on this, I just want to know this. Has anyone managed to get the Towa fix working with both GPS and ActiveSync? If someone says yes, I'll persevere with sorting things out my end, though I'm thinking that maybe there's a conflict?

/me says yes. Or, to rephrase, that: right at this moment my MDA II is talking to both my Fortuna Clip-On Bluetooth GPS and my desktop machine via bluetooth simultaneously. ActiveSync and TomTom both run, and both work without a problem. I have Towa's patch installed, or course.
Occasionally, however, ActiveSync on my desktop machine (!) seems to lose contact to the Bluetooth dongle. Rebooting helps. Did you try that? Also, a soft reset of the MDA cannot hurt.
Cheers

Many thanks. I've got up and running myself. Turned out I had to re-install my bluetooth dongle on the PC. Almost certainly nothing to do with the Towa extensions, which have worked flawlessly from the first.

GPS BURTOOTH
hi iv installed software on xda2 and it can see my bluetooth gps but it runs very slowly about 500m behind me is there any way of speeding it up please as i need it so much every day cheers everyone

I also experienced the same thing as jgadallah. Towa's patch works beautifully with my BT devices (headset, GPS & AS) so long as you create the partnership with the PC for activeSYnc first BEFORE installing the patch. BUT I can never activesync with Towa's patch if the patch is installed BEFORE the bond is created with the PC and XDA.
To overcome this, I always create the partnership first with my PC (say after a hard reset) then only install Towa's patch.

This does not sound like a problem with the Bluetooth connection (which either works or doesn't), but with your GPS receiver. Does it use XTrac mode? If so, this is a known effect - better reception under difficult circumstances, but a lag of some ten seconds.
There are forums where all this is discussed. Unfortunately, the only one I know is in German - if you understand German, have a look at www.pocketnavigation.de. Otherwise, maybe someone else can point you to an English forum?

BlueTooth upgrade for magician

I have recently installed Toshiba BT stack, and it works perfectly, i consider even better than Widdcom stack; but except one thing -
after switching off and than switching on my Magician the BT stack dissapears. And only Soft Reset helps.
This problem is really worth solving, let's try to do it together
Toshiba BT stack:
http://gordons095.narod.ru/str2005-01-16/files/toshiba_BT_Stack.rar
P.S. After following the link a russian site will appear and you 'll need just to click the same link again. Use MS IE to download the file, because my Opera 7.54 doesn't work.
yep and headset quality is more than terrible...and alot of profiles are missing.. btw this news is old and were still waiting for wid/broadcomm
For me this stack is much more convinient: i can connect to ActiveSync with no problems, i can transfer and receive files from any devices, i can exchange contacts and so on and so forse, and i don't have bluetooth headset.
Still, if you say it is an old program, the problem with the disapperiance of the BT icon after hybernate must have been solved.
Can you help me with this?
it has only been "partially" solved.. please use the search function to find related threads.

Bluetooth pan network setup help plz

okay so here goes.

ROM: RUU_Prophet_2151327_22113102_022021_Dopod_PDAMobizEdition_v101
Radio: 1_02.20.21
Protocol: 4.1.13.9

i have been trying to get my Prophet to work with a bluetooth Pan network. The PC is setup to do it but the phone has no support for it or i just cant seem to get it working. can some one plz help to to solve this problem.
Thanks
as far as I know, the prophet does not support the bluetooth pan profile
http://www.clubimate.com/t-DETAILS_JAMIN.aspx
thanks for the info.
so is there no rom for the Prophet that supports the bluetooth pan profile?
or bluetooth driver updates or a another way it can be done it can be done?
i am also having problems using active sync with my bluetooth cant seem to get it right i am still reeding some of the posts here hope fully i can sort this out soon.
It is available in AKU3.2 ROMs and I use it successfully in my car PC.
PDAMobiz_Prophet_WM5AKU3.2_v3231.exe
is this the right one ?
That one and any of the 3.2 ROMs. But note that there are problems with these ROMs including the problem that the phone won't charge over USB (you have to use the main plug-in charger).
Good luck with it.
Tried one and the phone got stuck on the boot Screen just loaded the RUU_Prophet_2090724_20907106_020720_QtekWWE_Ship.exe againe and i will try the other one againe now. Hope i get this sorted out LOL with out making a brick out of my Prophet.

Hi, I checked it again last night. I am using the AKU3.3 now, and this works too. My Bluetooth adaptor is a Belkin USB model and I am using the latest Widcomm 5.xxx.xxx drivers.
I start by using the Internet Sharing program on the Prophet, select Bluetooth PAN, the correct GPRS profile (in my case Orange Internet) and connect. Then I connect the PC using Bluetooth to the Bluetooth LAN on the Prophet.
Hope you can get it to work for you, but it may be also dependent on using a suitable Bluetooth stack in Windows.
The Widcomm drivers don't seem to work with my blue tooth adapter. so i have to use BlueSolei, or the windows drivers. the other thing is i wanted my Prophet to use my home networks internet witch is exactly the opposite of what you did in the above post, what i learned is that your bluetooth drivers must support the hosting side of the connection. The Widcomm drivers do support it but i just cant get them to work with the bluetooth device i have.
it looks like i have to buy a new bluetooth adapter if i want to get it to work....
or see if i can get the Widcomm drivers to work with my adapter.
any other way i can do this ?
Hi. Could someone confirms that Bluesoleil drivers runs ok in S200? Thanks and regards.

Tomtom GO 500 and Universal

Hi,
I am trying to connect my Tomtom GO 500 to the universal through bluetooth (it should be able to get the traffic situation, the weather and it should act as a handsfree), but the tomtom cannot see the universal at all (but it can see my neighbour's phone!), even if it is in discoverable mode.
I read on a blog that the problem is the universal does not identify itself as a phone but as a pc, is there a way to change this?
Any other solution?
Any help will be greatly apreciated!!!
I've also tried this and couldn't get it to work. I think it might be something to do with DUN not being available in current WM builds anymore. Any ideas would be much appreciated.
Cheers
I think I will give a try to the widcom bluetooth stack, it is possible this will solve... MS BT stack has never been very good
What about this one? http://www.jetwaremobile.com/
I got this info from this forum...
I don't think this will help... the problem I am having is not the phone not being able to discover tomtom as an handsfree - with tomtom things are quite different, it is the phone that must be discoverable!
Anyway, I will give it a try... do you know if they have a trial version?

Please help! Totally DISAPPOINTED!

Please guys help me!
I'm fighting to bring a BT GPS with an MDA III to work, but nooo luck and I'm getting very very sad...
I've discovered so far that with the official ROM 1.42 (WM2003SE) it works fine when I manually start the BT connection with serial port service.
Now the problem is that in WM5 and WM6 there is no manual connection ability (maybe another "smart feature") and there is the ****ing GPS Driver of WM. So I'm trying to get a TomTom 6.03 and an iGO to work but nothing at all
Really tried nearly all combinations to configure but zero luck.
It's totally disappointing....
Please tell me how do you use you BT GPS
UPDATE: problem solved with Xplode-s new ROM.

Hermes & Bluetooth GPS parring problem

Hello, I've got problem with my bluetooth gps (nemerix).
When I'd like to connect to my pda first I'm looking for new devices in bluetooth manager, then parring and seeting outgoing port. And then I'm starting my Navi aplication. It works.
But, when I'm shutting down gps device, turning off buetooth in pda and start it again I've to all tasks mention above - searching, parring and so on. In my opinion,when it's added to my bluetooth devices and properly parred once it should work every time I'd like to use it, however gps device doesn't communicate with pda.
It's quite annoying, why I cannot just start my gps device and my navi aplication and run - I spend a minute with setting connection.
Do anybody know how to fix my problem?
Are you using a custom rom? If so it could be a problem with the rom you are using. I've had the same problem in the past and a different rom fixed the problem.
I've got now Schaps_WM6Pro_Hermes_4.31_WWE_Full, which rom are you using -RanDomIze Final Storm v2.10?
Have you tried "Pocket Buetooth Tools"? You can find it here: http://bluetooth.i-networx.de/download_e.html
I hade major problem pairing my BT-gps to use with Tomtom before I found BTTools.....
I'll try, thanks for advice
