BLUESOLEIL and ACTIVESYNC..

i hapen to have upgraded my bluesoleil software to the latest version 5.05 build 176..
have lots of new features and stability and all.. but i can not BT activesync with this version..
my previous version connects instantly with activesync (despite the sudden stuck ups and disconnections)..
i do the standard discovery and pairing methods in connecting via bluetooth..
and my qtek 9090 (wiza200) can see the activesync service on my PC via BT..
but after that, when i go to activesync>menu>connect via bluetooth.. i am once again prompted that i don't have a PC that have activesync.. so i recheck, and refresh the bluetooth devices and see my PC having activesync service..
anyway.. the new version of Bluesoleil have COM3 and COM4 as the available Bluetooth serial ports, while my 9090 can only create outgoing ports for COM6 and COM7.. i believe this is the reason why AS over BT won't connect.. i remember that i used to have COM6 as my BT serial port on my PC (and activesync)- the same as the outgoing port on my PPC..
now, my question, how can i add COM3 to the list of outgoing BT com ports on my QTEK 9090??

afaik once u've paired a device you must configure outgoing com port via bluetooth-> com ports.
Totally forgot how to do this but if your still stuck I can reinstall bluesoliel and check it out. I remember having some sort of problem that took me a while to figure out. Something to do with the pc only recognizing the device for a few seconds,giving me less than 5 sec window to sync or something like that.
BTW what aku are you currently running on your device??

HTC Touch Pro - Active Sync with Vista via Bluetooth

I love the phone but I cannot believe that its so hard to sync with Vista via Bluetooth. It has the latest mobile software and vista is the new OS, how can they **** things up so badly?
I know there are some issues with the Sony Vaio Bluetooth stack. Its super confusing and the Bluetooth settings are hard to find.
Is it actually possible to Sync with Bluetooth to vista from WM6? Has anyone got this working?
Thanks, even a yes or no would be great here, so that I know if I'm wasting my time.

I did. After connecting my TP to the PC via bloetooth, i synced them, but using the phone's ActivSync, and not the Windows Mobile Device Center.

You need to go to your phone and instruct a "bluetooth activesynce".
It worked fine for me and my Vista SP1, using a dead-cheapo USB-bluetooth adapter.

Got it working too. Paired the 2 devices and entered passcode. Then started AS on the phone and selected Connect using BT and off it went. No problems what so ever.

Its good to hear that it works for people.
I think its an issue with the Sony Bluetooth stack. I can pair the devices but the device doesn't show that the laptop has activesync, just wireless stereo. I think I might hate Sony more than Microsoft, Mac next time for sure, so so sick of Vista and spending a week online working things out.
Its a long shot, but I don't suppose anyone has it working on a Sony Laptop with Vista?
Thanks for the replies and listening to me moan.

Indeed, having the same problem with Toshiba Bluetooth Stack. No Activesync profile when searching for available profiles. Is the any solution on how to add the "Activesync profile"?

my phone found the desktop with bluetooth and i checked activesync and on the phone i hit connect bluetooth it works fine but i hit sync and nothing happens?

Did you try this https://forums.microsoft.com/WindowsMobile/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2382825&SiteID=65
I had the same problem with my VAIO TZ and my Tytn II, didn't try with the TP yet.
Apart from replacing the drivers, I seem to remember there was a trick related to changing the COM Port or something (the default port was incompatible with Activesync) but I'm afraid I don't remember. I'll give it a go when I have time to connect both, but it may not happen until I getmy new laptop.
EDIT: forget the above, that's the trick I half remembered (and used): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=397419

If this is the case, try adding comm port for both your laptop and tp. Outgoing for TP and incoming for laptop. Then you need to set Windows Mobile Center to connect via COM?? (?? is the number you've chosen)
ActiveSync connection (via bluetooth) is actually a comm port connection.

Try removing the pairing and rebond.

It also works fine for me with Vista (non-SP1), newest version of Mobile Center, and a Bluetooth dongle with Microsoft stack.

This worked for me
I used many websites, a lot with very similar advice, but none specific to the HTC touch Diamond conundrum.
However, this is a very useful step by step guide:
http://www.inspectmygadget.com/2007/05/31/how-to-connect-your-wm5-device-to-wmdc-via-bluetooth/, which although provides advice for WM 5, is still the same principle.
The advice below is device specific
I use:
HTC Touch Diamond (with WM 6.1)
WMDC 6.1
Bluesoleil V6 Bluetooth Dongle
Although I had found the above advice on previous websites, and it had not worked I remained persistent.
I was able to find 'Activesync' as a service when, on my PC, changed the WMDC connection settings to COM 3.
However every time I tried to 'connect via BT' on my device, it said 'no partnership existed......'.
I therefore established some more com ports on my computer (in addition to COM 3, COM 4, COM 5 which I had taken authorisation off of):
COM 6
COM 7. Both without authorisation.
I then used the trial and error method to find which com port would broadcast 'activesync' to my device. It was still COM 3.
However, on trying 'activesync via BT'on my device this time, it began to connect!!!
I am not sure whether opening up the extra ports (COM 6 and COM 7) or whether my computer/device decided it was now the time to play ball since it realised I was about to take a cricket bat to it worked but it now syncs fantastically.
NB: There was no need to reinstall any software or windows operating system (as some other posts on other websites have suggested)

I still cannot get this to work. I couldn't on my Sprint Touch and now I can't on my Touch Pro.
I have Vista Home Premium SP1 with WMDC 6.1
Computer was formatted to factory settings today. Touch Pro is new as of yesterday.
I paired the phone to the computer and the computer to the phone. ActiveSync was a profile available for the computer and I made sure it was ticked.
I plugged in the phone via USB and set up the partnership. All is good there.
When I open ActiveSync on the phone and click "connect via bluetooth" it tells me it cannot open the port.
This is the exact same problem I had with my Touch. The computer is newly formatted and isn't communicating with any other bluetooth device at all. How can the port not be available? I've tried the regedit. Tried making incoming ports on the computer. No avail. However, I cannot make new outgoing ports on the phone. The tab is there but no option to do so.
Any help?
Thanks in advance

EZ Solution
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 !!!
P/S :- BTW i just bought my HTC TP 2 weeks ago ...

woks perfectly!!!
many thanks.

activesync over bluetooth on xp

so i just got the new 1005ha asus netbook today and spent the day setting it up as well as the bluetooth to the fuze. i got it to work with my stereo headset as well as to use data over bluetooth for internet
but i cant seem to make it sync up through activesync for file sharing
any help?

ive had the computer setup a port and told the phone to search in activesync and it doesnt find the com port just the same services each time

OK, sorry if you already did all this, its not 100% clear from your posts:
Create a new incoming port on the PC in bluetooth properties. (exactly where this is may vary - on my win xp its called "bluetooth devices" in control panel)
open active sync (on the pc). File / connection settings. check "allow connections to one of the following" <select the com port you just created>
make sure the pc is discoverable & phone bt is on
on the phone - open bluetooth settings and add a new device
select pc, pair, save etc
hopefully now the phone will see the pc, and activesync will now be available as a service
select sevice, save etc.
launch activesync on phone, and select "connect via bluetooth"
remember to disconnect when you're done! - it wont close the bt connection just because its finished its sync

how to connect windows mobile device centre with HD2 using bluetooth

Hi guy,
I am having problem connect/syn my HD2 (WM6.5) with the windows mobile device centre. I pair the both and I have no problem send and receive files between them and I can also do the file transfer but when it come to synchronisation it just wont connect. I have make sure the connection setting allow bluetooth. I looked up the net and found some people the con port should between 1-20 but my only have 25 and 26 to choose from on my HD2. I can can see the device connect to the PC using 25 or 26 but nothing happen. Also, when I open the bluetooth explorer I can see another port (15) but it is not showing on the HD2, I can also connect it but nothing happen either.
So, in a nutshell I can see com prt 15, 25 and 26 and I can connect all of them with the pc but none can do the wireless syn why?
Any help and advice will be very grateful.
Many thanks in advance
Dan

*SOLVED* ActiveSync via Bluetooth? NO COM PORT CHOICES?

Hi,
I am in need of some help on this topic. I am not certain if it is a ROM issue, an AS issue or a ME, like me issue.
Please don't flame me, done lots of googling, searching, etc and no luck.
Trying to sync with my laptop over bluetooth and using AS.
All goes well with the setup, each device sees each other, but when on the HTC Iolite, I go to
AS
CONNECT VIA BLUETOOTH
YES, to SET UP AN AS PARTNERSHIP
on the MODE tab, TURN DISCOVERY ON
on the device tab, Add a NEW Device
on the COM PORTS tab, to try to set up an OUTGOING PORT I do NOT have any options to select.
with my HTC Iolite I am running the latest iOmEgA rom installed.
Has anyone else had this same issue and BT with ANY other ROM on any other HTC or PDA? I have not flashed a different rom or tried this previously, so am not sure if it is a rom issue or a AS issue or what.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I usually only get it to work if there's a partnership established already. Meaning you should first connect it by wire, do an initial sync, and then try using bluetooth.

zzattack, others...
Well...it took me almost all night, but I learned aha! that the devices were NOT paired, when they are and ONLY WHEN THEY ARE, do you have the option to set an OUTGOING PORT. so I got it to work, frankly, this should be easier than it is. Now, with this said the AS connection is very, very tempermental in that
1. I stop syncing,
2. leave my office, with my phone / PDA with me,
3. return and reconnect via BT, then
4. activate sync from the phone / PDA AS, via the Connect via Bluetooth
5. I get the SET UP AN AS PARTNERSHIP and say YES then I can resync
6. Again too, too funky, but at least no USB cord
7. In the end I wil give this sync method a whirl and see how it goes.
Thanks!!

THread moved to Q&A

Best way to get it working properly is:
Delete any existing pairings on both the pc and ppc.
Check that the bluetooth program on your pc has a com port set up and that your pc is discoverable.
Go to activesync connection settings on pc and check that it is set to use the same com port as the previous step.
On ppc, go to activesync and attempt to 'connect via bluetooth'.
When it doesnt find a connection, select t create one, add device, and create a partnership with your pc. It SHOULD find activesync as a service.
Now you can close the bluetooth menu, and 'connect via bluetooth' again.
Make sure you are initiating the pairing from the ppc, and always initiate the sync from the ppc.
