Hi there,
I upgraded my imate to 1.72.00WWE from clubimate.com and everything is working perfect except that now I can't syncronize my documents with my laptop via bluetooth! Although I can send files between my imate and my laptop via bluetooth and I also can syncronize the documents via USB.
To syncronize via bluetooth before I'm following:
Start -> Settings -> Sysytem -> Bluetooth Settings -> Start - > Bonded Devices -> New
I also uninstalled ActiveSync3.7.1 and install it again but nothing changed!
Please tell me what to do, since I don't like to take my imate from its metal cover everytime I want to syncronize it.
Best regards and thanks in advance.

try here then it's on the site a compleat activesync guide for xda2 series using bluetooth
Thanx alot man, the article resolved my issue! Thanx again for your help
I struggled for an hour last night, should have searched this site earlier! Great guide that, why can't the Qtek manual be as helpfull!
I wish it was that simple for me, but I still can't get AS to work over Bluetooth. I can pair just fine, but I never get the "Activesynce setup competed" message. It just goes back to the BT settings. It is paired with the notebook and they talk (I can make GPRS calls from the notebook), but no AS. Tried a number of times, same results. Any ideas?

One thing I miss :
I used to pair my nokia with the laptop - and happily send txt messages from from my pc - with the benefit of the full keyboard, and the phone discreetly in my pocket.
Is there something for Windows that'll let me do that ?
thanks and all the very best to you.

ms have a free tool which will let you remote cntl your pda from the pc
thanks for that.. I downloaded it, but couldn't get it work,
In end I found something called Pocket Controller from SOTI software. 35 bucks - but works just great.
When I'm at the laptop, I can initiate a call in my bluetooth earpiece without take my hands from keyboard.
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.

Having problems connecting via bluetooth with diamond. I did it with my laptop. The diamond asks for a passcode. Inputting anything but blank comes up with an error. After accepting the incoming connection, it asks for another passcode, this time I can't input nothing, when I input something I get an error of incorrect passcode, if I click cancel, it doesn't type.
Any ideas?
Same problem here!
I connected a logitech dinovo mini with my diamond with no problem.. diamond ask a passkey, write with keyboard and then work...
sup guys..
I have a LG MS25, it's an american model of LG KS20.
At the firt time, when i tryed the IRXON keyboard I had this problem.. but then I start to look at the options and uncheck some bluetooth criptography and security parameters.. and it works!!
Now i digit the passcode and the connection is acepted.. but sometimes, when the passcode have a "zero" char it don't works.. but just sometimes.
I'm really glad that it worked, because i got it from eBay and spent R$130,00, (almost 50,00 United state dollars) because of the importation taxes of brazil..
bluetooth cryptography?
could you be more specific. You have an LG MS25, a windows mobile phone. Where did you find these settings to disable?
edit: i found a link explaining something about this, but I can't find the setting
http://xdaflameusers.com/viewtopic.php?id=98
Also, an update.
When presented with the passkey on the phone. I click next, then I must click the enter key on the phone. The phone than accepts the connection, but puts the keyboard in disconnected devices.
That's it.
I don't have any services listed under the "select services to use from this device" for the keyboard.
the problem is the bluetooth stack i think..
ms25 is the same of KS20.. widcomm bluetooth stack i think..
I've recently bought a HTC touch Viva (opal).. and I was havin problems to connect (never happens after input the key on keyboard) , and the bluetooth stack is that one from Microsoft.. so after some research i've decided to try the BlueInput 1.5 RC4.. it's not a freeware.. =/ but it works perfectly.. i think it'll work on diamond too!
I got one of the hp touchpad bluetooth keyboards on sale with the touchpad. It pairs easily with the touchpad, but if I try to pair it with my android phone, I get prompted for a passcode.
Does anyone know the bluetooth passcode for the keyboard?
***EDIT
Figured it out: apparently android by default doesn't have the capability yet to sync properly with bt keyboards by itself yet (Cyanogenmod might work.) To make it work, I got an app 'Bluetooth Keyboard Easyconnect' from the market. Just turn on bluetooth, open the app, and turn on the hp touchpad keyboard (in that order) and wait - it will sync automatically. Don't try to force the pairing in the bluetooth settings page for your phone.
If you do have a rom that allows manual pairing from the bluetooth settings by default, to sync you need to enter a passcode on your phone when prompted (anything you want - i used 0000), and then type the same code on the bt keyboard and press enter.
market link: https://market.android.com/details?id=net.mybesttools.btkbservice&feature=search_result
Try 000 (three zeros) or 0000 (four zeros). That is what most devices I have tried use.
HP official bluetooth keyboard
I got this for $28 at best buy, and while it works decent with the touchpad, I am wondering: Can it work with other devices?
I got it to pair with windows 7, but when I type, nothing happens. Has anybody else had any success? Something I'm not doing perhaps?
Every comment I've seen about this says the keyboard works only with the touchpad. There is some concern that the keyboard may not even work on the touchpad if/when Android is ported to it.

So can your confirm that this keyboard can indeed work with android phones/devices? I just received my purchase of this keyboard, and it looks and feels great. But I don't want a bluetooth keyboard that will only work with WebOS.
Thanks
Works fine with android and webos. Haven't tried it with anything else but it seems to be a generic bt keyboard so I'm sure it's within its capabilities to work on windows or mac.
I have a stock Evo 3D. And it works that.
I can confirm it pairs with the iPad 2, so (presumably) it should also pair with other iOS devices. The iPad asks that you punch in a code to confirm the sync, but I wonder if it's static?
Will this work with Win7?
I currently use the apple BT keyboard for Win7 but used "KeyTweak" to remap the key strokes in the registry for buttons such as delete and the media keys. Everything else works just dandy (cept the damn Ctrl key is in the wrong place...stupid Apple)
Would it be safe to assume that the Touchpad keyboard would work the same and require remapping of a few keys here and there? I see one person above said that they couldn't get it to work with Win7, but then again many people say that it doesn't work with Android and it definitely does...
Thank you all!
I have been able to pair up with my touchpad, 2 android phones, and a ps3 so I am assuming it will work on any bluetooth enabled device
I can't freaking get mine to pair. I can clearly see it, but after putting in the password (I've tried 000, 0000, 1234, 0123, 01234, and ABC) it just keeps asking if I want to pair it again. I'm assuming I don't have the correct PW. Anyone else have one that might work? I'm running the latest CM7 nightly and using the CM7 BT options.
Also, I downloaded that app mentioned earlier and it like.. doesn't work at all.

im having the exact same problem, im running MIUI on my s2 and just cant get it working, with or without the app within the app the keyboard just doesn't show up >_< i just want to pair it up so that i can get confirmation that it will still work when i flash android (when its available) to my touchpad :/ please help!
My Hp Keyboard works with Windows 7 and my dell streak 7 running honeystreak, no app needed. They both ask me to enter in a number upon pairing and they both work great.
I used this app to pair a new HP Touchpad keyboard I bought through Craigslist yesterday for $40. Worked within a few minutes of poking around. My Samsung Infuse is rooted, thanks to a modded Rogers ROM someone shared here. Pairing took a bit of figuring out, mostly because I have Droidwall running and hadn't granted permissions for the app. Then I installed Null Keyboard to get rid of the thumb keyboard while typing. Works AWESOMELY well in QuickOffice and other text editors.
My only complaint is a weirdness in the native email application which makes the keyboard unusable there. I can type random-length text, anywhere from a few words to a short paragraph, then it freezes for a few seconds, then I get a 'text copied to clipboard' message and the new message or reply I was starting vanishes. Not to the Drafts folder or Trash, just gone like it was never there. Doesn't happen with any other input method, as the email application seems generally stable and good. Of course I can write messages in a text editor then copy/paste them into email, but that's a bit of a pain. Anyone heard of this glitch?
Otherwise the HP keyboard is amazingly compact and comfortable to use. There are a few keys which don't seem to work at all and some weird key functions I'll have to learn, like the sideways arrow keys navigate vertically and the vertical arrows do nothing... and how Control A doesn't select all text etc, and how symbol and numeral entry uses odd key combinations, but for basic text entry it's solid. With a good external keyboard for this phone my jump from Windows Mobile is complete, I'm happy to have made the leap.
So I finally got my keyboard. It paired with Win 7 no problems. My issue now is that the "power" button did not remap to the "del" button and program "KeyTweak" doesn't even recognize the "power" button key stroke for me to remap it.
Any ideas? Thank you!
when using the keyboard with android, the keyboard looses connection when it drops into hibernate. It doesn't re-establish connection and must be re-paired from android....am I doing something wrong?
so is it only me but the delete button only deletes a letter (in a word document) at a time and does not continuously delete even if it's held down?
Holding down any key causes it to repeat for me, including the delete key. This is with a Samsung Infuse.
So what am I doing wrong? When I got to connect with any of my Android devices, I get to the password screen and it just won't connect after that. I've tried 000, 0000, 1234 etc, with no avail. Is there a special code?
When I first connected the HP Touchpad keyboard I had to enter a 6 digit code, if memory serves. It wasn't generic - rather a proper code, something you couldn't guess at particular to the pairing request. I entered it (there was a time limit too, a countdown... maybe, but I've been doing a lot of setting up of stuff on this thing and forgetting more than I remember), and since then have not been asked for it. Connecting is a bit twitchy the odd time but mostly I just toggle power on the keyboard off and on again if it's taking more than half a minute to connect. I typically see a pop-up 2 to 4 times on the phone saying the HP keyboard is connecting before it actually does.
