I have the widcomm Bluetooth stack installed and i am very happy with it, i am able to network with my pc and to the internet and everything even use activesunc over BT LAN, but what i couldn't do so far is to get active sync working over the Widcomm Active Sync profile, i don't really need it but it is just that i was able to get it working on MS BT stack, anyone had more luck than me on that one?
P.S. Active Sync starts connecting then pops up an error that the device is not recognized or not a pocket pc or smart phone.
Regards
I have the same problem, activesync doesn't work anymore after install widcomm bt stack even if i disable it and run ms bluetooth stack. I suppose that there is problem in registry for activesync, it propably call post which is not exists because widcomm stack replaced it. I think that solution could be to extract registry from ipag and compare it for activesync keys.

Anyone managed to ActiveSync via the Widcomm stack???
It does not work for me either
I have tried to install widcomm in the Qtek2020 but always it says "error" to me. What version of widcomm you have? Where I can find it? Thanks.

Reading all the posts about how horrible the MS BT stack was I was surprised to find that it does nearly everything I want. I couldn't get activesync working on the widdcom stack and so was switching between the two for different services. I've found that by initiating an activesync session on the MS BT stack I can access the internet thorugh my laptop and transfer files from my laptop to the XDA by pressing on the Explore button on the laptop's Activesync and then clicking on My Pocket PC. My BT GPS device seems to work ok, though I lose a BT connection when I'm in standby for a while. My main gripe is that half the time I can't initiate an activesync session, I either get "connecting to host" forever or "can't connect to serial port", restarting my laptop seems to help.
Is there any software that can allow me to answer my calls from my PC whenever my unit is in ActiveSync? I'd like to use my PC microphone and speakers in answering calls.
i dont know but since activesync is made for normal pda's and not spc for phone pda's i'm not too sure that they incorprated it in activesyncs functions
of cause since that the pda can get access to the network using activesync then i suppose that people could make a program which had a socket the pda connected to that and transfered the sounds as data and such
but somebody need to make such a program and i've yet to see a high demand for it
and as with soo much other things in this world without a demand chances of somebody makes it are less
Certainly would be a very useful program if written.
well maybe there is a demand / market for such a program then
dident know since my xda2 is only in the cradle when it's sync'ing or charging
Bluetooth is your answer i think...
My MDA saw a BT headset service on my BT dongle on the PC...
Didn't try it tough...
If you happen to have it worked, please do inform me. I don't wana buy that BT device for my PC if im not sure it would work as a headset for my XDA2. Thanks so much.
Interesting question! Isn't there a way of getting the XDA to be a virtual modem for the PC? There's that prog called XModem on the OEM - so there must be a simple way of doing this. If it were treated as an external modem, you could use any traditional PC phone answering software, I suppose.
I can gurantee it.. buy a tdk bluetooth usb adapter(or any other adapter WITH widcomm blutooth stack) this will enable your computer to act as a headset ,the widcomm software has the audio gateway protocol which will enable the pc to act as a headset..

Yup ! Works just fine. Coupling the handling of the mobile calls with the handling of the SMSs with Jeyo, the config while in the office is rather good. You can really forget about the mobile device.
Excellent. Thanks again for the tip.

when you bond your phone to PC (xp sp2) it gives the option of headset profile.

I don't think that Microsoft bluetooth stack supports Audio Gateway Profile nor does it support Headset or Handsfree...
that means that you CAN'T use your pc as a headset
and you CAN'T use a bluetooth headset with your pc..
I even encountered some difficulties with installing widcomm software after installing sp2..

I think you are right : YOU can't do it
I restate here that I have done it and it works fine. Both bluetooth headset on the PC and PC as headset for the Pocket PC. And I don't have SP2.

I cant get you
I was replying to the guy who said that with sp2 you can do what I said about widcomm(he said that with sp2 you can make your computer work as a headset)
what I'm trying to say that Microsoft bluetooth stack (which will be obligatory installed with sp2) does not support Headset or Handsfree profile
but widcomm does..
And I can do it ofcourse :evil:
okay, point taken I misunderstood you. Sorry about that.
Do I have to install Widcomm Bluetooth stack on my XDA II to have this work? I have Bluetooth Dongle on my PC with SP2.
no no... don't install widcomm on your xda because then it will NOT work..
you just have to have widcomm on your pc
do you know if i can use the WIDCOMM drivers with my USB BT dongle (Linksys DBT 120)? if so, where can i find the WIDCOMM drivers?

are you sure it's Linksys DBT 120??
or d-link DBT 120??
if the latter is true then you already have widcomm drivers with your adapter driver cd..
Simple:
why isnt it possible to use the same thing through the usb cradle ?
Why does it _NEEDS_ to be a bluetooth connection?

I hope one of the gurus here can help me with this one:
- I have the O2 Exec, with MS BT stack
- I have the Logitech MX 5000 BT Laser Desktop (http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/products/details/CA/EN,CRID=2158,CONTENTID=10776)
- this comes with a choice of the Widcomm stack(which they recommend), or you can use the MS BT stack
I have set up BT Activesync using the MS BT stack, without a hitch, but would like the extra goodies that the Widcomm stack offers.
What I want to know is:
- can I use the Logitech Widcomm stack (which requires that I disable the MS BT stack on my pc) and still set up Activesync with my Exec?
- Or, because the Exec uses MS BT, must I set up all peripherals to use MS BT to get them to communicate?
I have checked Logitech's support forum and done an extensive search here, but I can't find a definitive answer:
- if your HTC devices uses a particular BT stack, must you use that stack on your pc , as well?
Thanks in advance...
Huisie, you *should* be able to use any bluetooth stack on the desktop.
Just ansure that you have a incoming BT port set up, point Activesync to that incoming port, and set up a partnership.
Lekker, ou seun, dankie vir die help daarmee!
So, snorbaard, I can run the Widcomm or MS BT stack on the desktop, but I'm limited to the ...uh, limited...MS BT on the Exec.
Still, I believe that Widcomm doesn't do hands-free, is that right?
there is no bt manager on my jasjar. i had one on my pda2k
Yes there is, as stated in the other thread. It's just different as it uses the MS stack not the Widcomm one.
how do i get the widcomm one?
I am trying to setup my 8125 to syn with my PC. PC has a 1.1 dongle. When I pair to the pC only services I get are serial port and audio gateway. I am using sumiter2.3AKU Rom.
anyone? PPlease
Just a general plug for a website. If you ever want to check specs on a phone use www.phonescoop.com. According to them the 8125 has: Supported Profiles: HSP, HFP, DUN, OPP, HID, A2DP, AVRC
version 2.0. The serial profile is what will be used to make the connection between your phone and activesync.
When I connected them my Phone only showed Audio Gateway and serial link....while my pc showed networking and audio gateway. I have double checked and my OBEX file transfer is enabled on my phone but not registering with my computer. This Bluetooth dongle has worked awesome with all my other devices for file transfers. any ideas?
Are you trying to use activesync for the transfers or your bluetooth client?
Bluetooth Client
I'm not sure what Bluetooth stack you are using on your PC. I have the Widcomm stack (not sure what version). I have the OBEX profile and it shows up under the bt client software. However, I can only use the business card exchange and not a true file exchange. When I was using an older version of activesync I would initiate transfers to the device using bluetooth (push), but never tried a pull exchange. Is there something specific you are trying to accomplish? It is generally much easier and faster to use the mini SD or a USB method of exchanging files between two devices. BT is just dreadedly slow IMHO. I mostly use BT for A2DP and DUN.
I have the same problem, its not a problem in the PC stack, is the 8125 BT stack fault, lack of file bluetooth transfer OBEX, just imagine take the phone to another PC without activesync and you cant transfer files PC-8125, thats is the problem, i can do that with my rzr.
Maybe a BT stack upgrade?
