I have a Sony Vaio which has built in bluetooth. When I pair the XDA2 with it, it can not see any serial profile on the XDA2. Also the BT implementation of Microsoft on the XDA2 does not do much as well. The pairing of the machines from XDA2 gives you the message that it's ready for activesync via bluetooth but that's BS. When you choose activesync via bluetooth from the XDA2, my VAIO shows an instant try of serial connection between the devices but it does not stay there.
The bluetooth implementation on the VAIO is also Microsoft BT stack and it sees the XDA2 as a DUN device, which installs a modem at port 10 to use the XDA2 as a modem. So some part of this works, except the activesync.
Any help would be appreciated.
Also, I have contacted NAVMAN GPS in Europe and they have confirmed that they just sent an XDA2 to New Zealand to their developers to find a solution for the strange pairing problem (NAVMAN GPS only accepts "NAVMAN" as the pairing PIN but you can only enter numbers at the XDA2 pairing software)
I have exactly the same problem as you with my Sony VAIO Z1 SP laptop. I have posted a separate thread but so far no-one has been able to get my bluetooth activesync working. Have you had any luck yet?
No not yet, I've downloaded sony's updates for bluetooth from www.vaio-link.com, but it didn't help the problem. I'll keep on working on this, let me know if you have a solution.
I had a similar problem with a Tosh laptop, but after upgrading to the latest stack was okay. Although I still couldnt configure from the tosh laptop (no serial port recognised), when following the instructions within the bluetooth HOWTO on the o2 website it worked fine

Seems to work okay to other people I've suggested it to as well who were having trouble

Uninstall Bluespace NE and use a Widcomm-BT Stack instead. Works fine with my MDA II (Towa Pocket Bluetooth Tools installed) and Sony Vaio PCG-Z1RSP.
You have to edit btwusb.inf before installing the Widcomm-Stack:
[WIDCOMM]
%SONYZ1.DeviceDesc%=BTWUSB, USB\VID_044e&PID_3003 ; SONY VAIO VID&PID
[strings]
SONYZ1.DeviceDesc="Sony VAIO Z1 Bluetooth Device"
How can you download the WidComm stack. Can this stack also be used on a Toshiba Satelite Pro m10. i have troubles with the toshiba bluetooth stack..

Should work if the internal transceiver is also manufactured by Cambridge Silicon Radio (CSR).
For instructions on installing different versions of the WidComm BT-stack,[includig the Dell one] have a look at this forum
http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/forumdisplay.php?f=231
You can also look at this page for a step by step guide (not verified - "never touch a running system"):

I had problems using activesync via bluetooth with a cheap class 1 dongle (Microtune I think) but managed to get it working by installing the Pocket Bluetooth stuff from the links in other threads (german internet site) and by following the instructions at http://www.jonscaife.com/ and installing the Widcomm stack linked from there (1.4.something I think) rather than the one that came with my dongle (1.3.2.7 I think).
Everything now works a treat - thanks Slartibartfass for the link - saved my hair from being pulled out.

I just found an easy solution for u guys who using Toshiba Bluetooth Stack ...
U guys no need to remove anything ...
All u need to do is verify the COM port of ur bluetooth ...
1. Go to the “Bluetooth Local COM” Applet in your Control Panel
2.Open “Bluetooth Local COM” applet where you will see a list of Ports
3. The Corerct port you need to use is
“COM7 Toshiba BT Port (COM7) LocalCOM-Server[SerialPort(TOSHIBA LocalCOM)]
and not “COM6 Toshiba BT Port (COM6) LocalCOM-Client”
From this guy here ... << http://thinkabdul.com/2006/10/12/tu...c-via-bluetooth-with-toshiba-bluetooth-stack/ >> TQ sir ...
Then ... u guys need to use ur REGEDIT to find this ...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services
Notice there is SerialPort ?? yes ... JUST CHANGE THE string 'Bluetooth' to COM7 ...
After this just pair ur wat ever PDA u've got & thats it ... u got the ACTIVESYNC in the advance option of the services available ...
Hope u guys enjoy !!!

Use com port 6 and try it again
what do you mean use com 6
my inbound is already on com 6??
please explain
Bluetooth manager select "Explore a bluetooth device" it should show up there, then select it, it should display "Slave" device or something similar.
If you need to pair it use the key "0000" (usually works)
If your having problems with TomTom 5 you will need to use the newer 5.10 patch, this fixes the problems where it wouldnt reconise "Other bluetooth devices".
I use COM port 5 with my bluetooth GPS but i guess its not specific.
Also you might want to turn off your bluetooth headset while you get the GPS working as it may want to comunicate on the same port, which if it is the case ... im not sure how you can get both working together.
Hi all,
Just upgraded myself from a Wizard to a Hermes and am mostly happy, I used the crack program to unlock it from T Mobile and upgraded it to WM 6.0.
Mostly it is great, I just have two problems at the moment,
1. I am able to pair any bluetooth device, but when I try and talk with my BT headset ( WEP200) all I get is white noise, it worked fine with the Wizard.
2. I have paired my GPS unit ( also worked OK before) but I do not know how to make it recognizable by the software ( i-go) I have tried using the 'External GPS' feature but nothing, any help would be great.
THanks
same problem for

Seems that Trinity identifies itself as a PDA in BT - some BT devices only want to bond to devices that identify itself as a computer.
You may want to try search for a registry key to change the BT device type in Trinity. It has been discussed before.
(first of all: i hope this is the right topic for my issue ;D)
Hi Guys,
i have a problem. I bought a bluetooth Keyboard (Keysonic ACK-3400 BT) for my PDA (HP IPAQ hx2795) and at all noticed that it doesn't work:
(First there is to say that I have the Windows mobile 6.1 ROM installed on my PDA.)
First thing I did was trying to get the Keyboard work of course... and there was my first problem: when i used the included bluetooth keyboard function (over bluetooth manager) i got the answer that my pda couldn't find any Bluetooth keyboards...
than i tried to search my keyboard regulary and my pda found my bluetooth keyboard Oo
Of course i tried to pair my pda with my keyboard and this also worked! (after typing the passkey on my keyboard and then pressing enter)...
So I don't know what to do to get it worked... (maybe installing wm5 again?!)
Hope You can help me!
THANKS!!!
