Hi,
Ok after the breakthrough regarding the ROM updates for QTEK 1010 and it was first revealed here on xda-develpers.com we have some new options in the QTEK now one of them is the WM.
Did anyone manage to use the Wireless Modem via IRDA because its not working the first thing is that the computer is seeing the device on infrared but not as a modem and i dont have an *.inf file to indentify it. If anyone managed to use his QTEK or any XDA via infrared to connect his laptop to the internet using GPRS plz explain how.
thanks
to irda on win2k/xp
visit http://www.ircomm2k.de
Install software at own risk, but this exposes a permanent COM port using IrDA. Also nukes Wireless Link in the process.
Setup a manual modem, select the COM port from above, presto!
Ummm its a good idea but i am not sure if this will work on Windows XP... what do you think?
it does
it does, but as with all things apply with care
Tried it
I tried this a long time ago, IRCOMM2k works on XP but the problem is that i couldn't figure out how to setup a IR generic Modem working on that port.
Yes please, this is a good article,
I installed the ircomm2k on my XP, but how to configure the connection from my laptop to connect to the internet via my XDA PDA as an external modem?
to setup xda as a modem
1. Install Ircomm. note which com port is assigned as permanent.
2. Add new modem: standard 33600
3. Select com port from item 1 as the com port of choice
4. Edit modem profile in devices settings, in Extra Initialisation Commands add AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","apn name"
5. VERY IMPORTANT: set flow control to OFF
6. Set port speed to 115200 ONLY
Set up a Mobile Web net connection as per your operator
Select your above modem
Align xda with irda port; select start on Wmodem app
Double click Mobile Web connection.
Surf. It's OK but not as fast as a GPRS card.
OR you can wait for O2 to eventually post some instructions...
Thank you very much for your feedback
I did all what you asked me to do, but its not working it gave me an error message:
Error 692: There was a hardware failure in the modem (or other connecting device).
I replaced AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","apn name" BY AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","apn01" same as Im using in my PDA. Am I right?
Something I didn't understand in your reply:
(Set up a Mobile Web net connection), you mean a normal dial-up connection?
One more thing, what do you mean by (select start on Wmodem app)?
Do I have to do anything in my PDA before I connect from my laptop? or do I have to do anything in my PDA configuration or connections settings?
Please help me, I want to use the Gprs on my laptop, no need to pay for 2 services, one for the PDA and other for my laptop
Best regards, Ali Alsaffar [email protected]
"select start on Wmodem app" - this means go into the Wireless Modem application on the xda, select IrDA (if thats now you are connecting) and then tap the Start button.
When you've done that, go the the DUN connection on laptop and connect as you normally do.
Unfortunatly I dont have "Wireless Modem application" on my XDA from where I can get it?
I thought the command was:
AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","apn name","",0,0
I don't know about the command but what Im sure about it is that wModem application is mandatory, so from where I can get it?

HI. I HAVE AN OLDISH LAPTOP RUNNING WIN ME. WILL IRCOMM2K WORK ON ME OR IS IT INTENDED (AS NAMED) FOR WIN 2K AND XP ONLY?

Subject: RE: wireless modem
Hi
The wireless modem will be available in the next ROM update from the xda team. I understand that this will be released in the next couple weeks - they are in the final stages of testing.
We will highlight the new ROM on our homepage with a link to the downloadable files.

Hmm... really good question. ME is an update to 98 as I recall, but a clunky upgrade.
Way to check: Setup a new modem. When it asks which COM port you wish to use, if you can select Virtual Infrared COM port then it should work fine.
Get the instructions at www.o2.co.uk/xda on Help and Support.
Anyone know what the T-Mobile USA network connections for using WModem are?
For UK O2 they are:
Primary DNS - 193.113.200.200
Alternate DNS - 193.113.200.201
User name - O2Web
Password - password
Has anyone used wmodem in the US with T-Mobile as a service provider?
Thanks,
JP
Qtek as wireless modem
I also have oldish ME Laptop computer. I did exactly as described on O2 support site. It does not work. The modem on laptop immediately disconnects saying it's not responding properly.
I have tried several cooked versions of the 4..00.16 Eng T-Moble and the 4.00.11 ENG WM2003 roms and niether one installs the WModem app. Any ideas why?
I have a T-Mobile version of the PPC, radio stack 6.24
WM with old laptop computer
It worked for me. I could connect my oldish ME notebook computer to internet over gprs using WM in xda. I used the extra string from o2 and just changed the access point name.
It goes as this:
AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","apn"
It works, but the WM just stops responding the moment you disconnect the connection from PC. The PC waits and waits for the confirmation and then hangs up saying no reponse. But as long as you are connected it works very well.
Has anyone else had this problem.
I am trying to set up wireless modem working with my laptop and my M5000. I've followed instructions by disabling activsync and incoming beams but I can not even get as far as installing drivers when I hit "START" on wmodem I get "COM OPEN ERROR" and it stops me getting any further.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Hey i had this problem in the beginning also.
don't know for shure but try first to disable GPRS and WLAN.
1. disable USB connection in active sync on your computer.
2. start USB modem app and press start
3. connect usb cable
4. install drivers
5. start USB_modem.exe to connect. (no username or password needed)
Something has changed now. I have stoped my GPS bluetooth from using serial port (although it wasn't running at the time). Now I can install drivers and I've set up modem as per instructions in earlier thread. Now I start WModem and plug USB in with no active sync and nothing happens. window says connecting but nothing actually connects and status does'nt change. latter this connection after about 3 mins will time out with communication error 777.
Any more ideas would be appreciated.
sorry dude can't help you out. don't know what went wrong. Try to disconnect everything and try again.
I find this solution for running ActiveSync connected thru BT via one click. I tried it on my MDA Compact and it works.
Hope it helps.

On the Pocket PC...
1. ActiveSync / Tools / Options... / Options... (yes options twice)
2. "When cradled Enable PC sync using this connection" 'Bluetooth
3. Startup an ActiveSync connection as you normally would...
4. Now setup a shortcut to the program "windows\repllog.exe" into the Start menu. To do this
a. open up Explore in ActiveSync
b. Go into My Pocket PC
c. Go into Windows folder
d. Find repllog.exe and right click and select copy
e. Go into the Start Menu folder (within Windows folder)
f. Right click, paste shortcut - rename to something like ActiveSync Direct
Back on the Pocket PC
5. Gracefully disconnect ActiveSync.
6. Start / Settings / Buttons
7. Choose Button 4
8. Set the button assignment as ActiveSync Direct (or whatever you called it above) and click OK
9. Reset your Pocket PC and wait about 15 seconds for everything to get loaded (esp. Bluetooth which takes a little while).
10. Press the top left side button. Voila! Easy!
If you get the ActiveSync - "Port Not Available" message, it just means that Bluetooth hasn't loaded yet. Tap OK, check that Bluetooth is activated and if so, try again.
Thanks for the post. Ive been having trouble getting this to work however.

Im using WM5, and firstly i dont have the option..option menu and secondly when i try to paste repllog it tells me that the file is copy protected or something like that.
Any ideas???
Help appreciated.....
Try to use Resco File Explorer instead of M$ Explorer. When you 'right click' on Windows/repllog.exe, there is 'Send To...' -> 'Start Menu as Shortcut' option in menu.

help with activesync only com1
every time i install bluetooth usb stack, it uses new com79, com80, now and i cannot sync over bt like i did before.
How can i delete those comports?in device manager under advanced in com1, tells me that from com2-com80 are in used.?????
Any idea, thanks
remove your stack from PC, then delete all com ports except 1 & 2 , use buttons windows + break & install stack again!
in properties of each ports set different com for example com1 , ignore errors , delete free changed one! do so with each wrong port
THANKS A LOT! PROBLEM WITH COM79,COM80,COM81......FIXED
thanx rustoss, you are BIG! i dont unplug usb stack even.....i just ignore all notifications and change my only COM1, to com5, and thats it!.i can activesync by bt again.thanks again :lol: :lol:
Hello,
Just upgraded my 8525 to the latest and greatest ROM. Well ... greatest should really be within quotes!!!
I'm having 2 problems ...
#1) I cannot use my phone thru DUN. I select Internet Sharing. Disable ActiveSync on my PC. Select PC Connection as USB and Network Connection as My ISP GPRS. When I connect the USB cable, I immediately get a message box that New Hardware has been found (Generic RNDIS). Windows (XP-SP2) then prompts me to install the drivers. I click Next but it does not find them and throws an error that Drivers could not be found. I've searched the internet and HTC sites in vain, but cannot find anything that helps.
#2) When I connect my device using ActiveSync (4.5), I cannot get the device to use ActiveSync as a pass-thru for the internet. This results in any calls made to the internet to fail.
Any help would be appreciated. I'm back on the road on Tuesday and need to get this resolved.
Thanks

Mike,
I had tried that earlier today but it did not work. I unzipped the file and pointed the "Find New Hardware" wizard to that directory location. When I click Next it searches and finally returns with "The hardware was not installed because the wizard cannot find the necessary software".
I'm confused. Aren't the Remote NDIS drivers part of the ActiveSync install? What am I missing here?
-- Val
I have exactly the same problem, and I still didn't find any solution
I have exactly the same problem, and I still didn't find any solution
I also have the same Problem but a different situation
I would like to tether with my phone which I can do with no problem on most computers. However I have a corporate laptop that I cannot install activesynch on...So i just need the driver to install when I connect my phone via USB.
So i get the same error as the guys above me...so any fix to this problem that does not involve installing activesync would be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance

Hi everybody,
Yesterday I had the same problem, but I resolved it.
First, install Activesync 4.5.
Second, when you plug your device and it ask you for the driver generic RNDIS driver, you can choose the place of this driver (don't choose automatic).
So point the "Find New Hardware" wizard to that directory location :
C:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync\Drivers
Then Ok (or next I don't remember)! After windows'd install alone the good driver.
Enjoy your synchronization!
Bye bye
Upgrade ActiveSync

When I used ActiveSync 3.7, this version can not recognize Generic RNDIS. I’d upgrade this version into ActiveSync 4.5, its work.

Generic RNDIS Error for Windows 2003
Hi Guys,
I am also facing the same problem but I am using windows 2003 server.
I am using HTC Touch phone. Please help me out with some solutions.

I had this same problem with my HTC Touch Cruise. Here's what solved it:
Go to Settings > Connections > USB to PC
Uncheck Enable advanced network functionality
Then the computer sees your mobile and sync begins (at least for me).
Something worth trying...
If you look at the driver settings for "Windows Mobile Device" under WinXP it shows a file called:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\rndismpx.sys
I'm wondering if the rndismpx.sys file is all one needs to use to install the driver so that WinXP will see the WM phone as a viable device and therefore allow you to use it's Internet Connection Sharing function to give the PC a data connection to the net?

Ok I too had this problem, and refuse to use active sync as it always muck up my special clock settings. This is what fixed it for me.
As i DO have active sync installed on my desktop system, and taking the advice of the persom who posted above, i just copied the "DRIVERS" folder onto a disk (From \Programme files\Microsoft Activesync), took that to the laptop i needed to install on, and installed the driver manually, pointing to the DRIVERS folder on th CD i just made. All installed, and "Pinging" nicely!

Yep, that did the trick for me. And this was after spending two hours on live chat with AT&T which was useless.
Thanks. Who knows how long I would have been dinking along looking for a clue.

thanks
activesync include the only required drivers
and activesync is a program you can download free at ms
already tried
does not work even with active sync
make sure you have the latests service packs and updates for your computer
and if you use vista you need to use Windows Mobile Device Center rather then activesync
RNDIS
when i connect the device via USB cable my Windows Xp finds new hardware :
Generic RNDIS (PROTOTYPE-Remember to change IDVENDOR)

You are a victim of a well known problem.
Go to settings connections advanced settings and uncheque.
I case the device freezes after you press OK. Softreset and copy the attached file to \Windows folder. After copying rename it to serialusbfn.dll by deleting the last 2 letters.
This is a little workaround to overwrite a ROM-file, without getting an error or using third party apps.
still freezes

"cose i don`t have acces on the device ?"
use total commander and click \ icon you should get \ on your pda
then click windows and you will be in \windows
wich windows
so the file i should copy in the \windows on the device not on the computer?

thanks a lot ....
it works ...
