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.

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.

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.
I have installed the Widcomm BT stack on my QTEK 2020 and now I cannot use my Jabra 250 headset. It bonds ok and creates the headset shortcut but once I connect, I keep getting 4 beeps on the headset and the calls are not transferred to it.
Secondly, I can connect to my pcs BT Serial Port and ActiveSync tries connecting before coming up with a message stating that the device cannot be recognised.
Finally, I have tried using the BT Network Access for internet surfing but as soon as I connect the BT network access, my GPRS line connects (???) for some reason.
Thanks for your help. Can't wait for a proper implementation of BT on this device as thats was my main reason for upgrading and have been very disappointed in this department.
I've got the latest iMate rom with the push email installed on my Vario. Have started to notice that after disconnecting from either ActiveSync or Bluetooth that my Vario requires a soft reset to receive and make calls or to access the Internet or download email via gprs.
Anyone else had this problem?
active sync via bluetooth
I have latest ROM and since that no longer can connect to active sync which I was able to before. I am able to connect to my car and headset.
I'd love steps--It doesn't give me active sync as a choice when I try to connect to computer from 8125 active sync using bluetooth. Only service listed is WIRELESS STEREO.
anythoughts would be appreciated
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?
Hi Everybody!
Looking around for a soulution to BT PAN with Toshiba BT Stack on my Dell I played a while with the USB connection.
I'm using TomTom with BT GPS quite often the same time I'm online, so I tried to disable BT on PPC, Internet Sharing with USB, IP assigned, online - then reactivated BT and it works great both together - even phone calls meanwhile connected via UMTS to the internet.
So, using the build in function in WinXP and set up alternative options for your IP/DNS/etc works even (takes 3 - 5 seconds more to obtain IP) fine.
So no need any more to deactivate BT on the PCC before using internet.

Alex
