Hi,
When I first got my I-Mate JAM I could connect to my PC via USB or Bluetooth no problems, and ActiveSync would maintain the connection so I could use pass through for internet and keep my items in sync automatically.
But after a while BT stopped working for some reason. I've set it all up again and got it working again now, and while it is a little flaky I seem to get it working with a little playing around.
However, it does not stay connected anymore when connecting via BT (only when via USB). It connects, syncs, then disconnects, even though I have the "Maintain Connection" option selected.
Any ideas to fix this?
TIA

Hi community!
I have an USB Bluetooth on my desk computer which has a permanent internet connection. I want to connect to internet with my XdaII and i want to use the computer's internet connection.(and also use bluetooth to sync my pda.) I tried the "connect via bluetooth" option in Activesync program on my pda but nothing happens although bluetooth is on and my computer is discoverable.
Does anybody know how to solve this problem?
Thank you for your time.
If you set your Activesync to stay connected after you sync, you should be able to use the internet through that connection.
I just tried it and I am getting 483k transfer speeds.
Thanks,

i tried 6 times, but it doesn't help, nothing happens if i press "connect via bluetooth"button.
thank you guys though.
did you follow the guide as in
add a com port as bluetooth on both the pc and on the pda
and bound with the pc checking out that you wanted to sync that way ?
thank you rudegar, i tried it 3 times again and on the third time it connected
thank you for your time.
i can connect to internet easily now.
Even though I've told ActiveSync to "Allow wireless connection on device when connected to the destktop", it doesn't work, my smartphone SP5m connected via USB on my pc keeps telling me "Check your connection/network settings" whenever I need internet access and won't open any web pages or internet applications, why?
Under Connections settings, I usually have 2 options, either "Auto-detect settings" or "Select network" which has "The Internet" selected. But none of them works
And what's the difference between those network presets (The Internet, Work, etc)?
Thanks to all!

go to setting\connections\usb to pc and deset advanced network funcionality
No matter if "advanced network functionnality" is enabled or not, it's the same, internet won't work when my SP5m is plugged in via usb. It's surely working fine though using WIFI... any other thoughts anyone?
Thanks
Just tested, same problem here and the weird part, it works if connected with a Bluetooth connection
i have that problem too.. connected to the laptop there is no internet connection with cabel but over bluetooth..
funny thing: if i connect to the desktop computer it does work with cabel
same security software (avira antivirus and pc tools firewall)
if anyone find a solution for that i'd be very glad. the problem itself doesnt matter as connection over bluetooth is more important to me but i just cant stand how illogical it is..
Hi Guys,
I am running active sync 4.5 on my works pc and I want to connect my wm6 device to it whilst I am at work. However, my device checks my gmail and this is blocked via my works network, so i want my device to stay connected to gprs and use that instead of try to use my pc connection.
Is there a setting in Active sync to tell it to use its one connection to the internet instead?
I have set that this PC is connected to the Work network and that has not made any difference.
What else can I try?
Thanks
Doh, I reread the option underneath and the 'allow wireless connection whilst device is connected' sorts this out!
Ok tell a lie.
The GPRS now stays connected but the device isnt using it to connect to the internet. It still tries to use the pass through.
Anyway around this? I assume i need to adjust my connection settings to do with 'work' and the 't-mobile internet' connections.
I've been triying to figure this out for awhile but here's the basics of what's going on:
I have a Japanese HTC Touch Pro, (and yes EVERYTHING is in Japanese, but this doesn't really bother me.) We don't have MMS over here, so we use a constant 3G connection and mopera U to push email to the phone.
So, when i'm in my Comm Manager I have a Data connection on as well as the phone connection.
If I try to turn on my WiFi it will turn off after 3 seconds (just enables it and disables it)
If I try to use my bluetooth connection, same thing (enables BT, then turns it off again)
If I connect my phone to my PC via USB it will try to connect at first, but will suddenly disconnect after a few seconds.
Well, I figgured out that Active Sync won't allow the connection while the phone portion is turned on. Easy enough, I turn my phone into flight mode and it connects just fine and syncs. While this is a tad retarded, I will accept it.
However, In order to get bluetooth to work, i need to disable the 3G connection. Now.. here's what I don't like:
I *HAVE* to have my data connection for email/internet or anything. But, the phone will only seem to allow either the Data connection through the 3G OR bluetooth/wifi, not both.
Now, if I have BT enabled first, then try to establish the data connection I get an error telling me it cannot connect to the 3G network, same effect though, it will try.. just won't allow it.
What really makes me mad is i'm not wanting to have it networked to anything, I just wanna pair it with a headset so I can listen to the mp3 player while on the train and send out emails from my phone.
I tried calling HTC (good help that was) about it, and they suggested hard reseting the phone, soft reset, ect ect.. There's not really a problem, i'm sure there's just a setting somewhere to allow the multiple connections at one.
Does anyone know of any tricks or ANYTHING I can do so I can use my phone the way it was intended?
Did you ever find an answer to this? I am having a similar problem with my Fuze. When bluetooth is enabled, eventually the phone begins to refuse to open a data connection. :-(
No, i never found an answer. I'm not tech savvy enough to find it out.
But its REALLY annoying. I just want to use my USB headset, not connect bluetooth to any network or route messages that way.
Not sure if this is the fix to your problem, but this helped me when Wifi kept turning off, its a setting in WinMoDevCenter, it stops all data connections when connected to sync
in WinMoDevCentre go to Mobile Device settings -> Connection Settings -> Allow Data connections (last check box)
after that i was able to use wifi while plugged in just fine
Hi All,
I'm trying to setup my computer so it can use my Fuze for an internet connection. I'm currently running...
IVT BlueSoleil version 6.4.249.0
EnergyROM 20090709 Standard
I am able to setup a pairing between my phone and my computer by connecting through BlueSoleil.
I notice that my phone connects to COM10 then disconnects, but it says paired on the BlueSoleil manager (don't know whats up with COM10).
I then go to Internet Sharing and connect (on my Fuze), it says device setup has finished, connect bluetooth PAN on PC.
I go back to BlueSoleil (on my computer), right click on my Fuze and click "Connect Bluetooth Personal Area Network" and it gives me "operation not succesful, please try again".
I'm not sure what else to do, I can connect through activesync using usb, but not through bluetooth.
Any ideas?
Update
I got something going on the connection but no internet connection.
Basically when the phone was pairing with the adapter, it would pop up the "COM Port 10" connected box. During the time it was trying to connect I would right click on the phone and click "connect to PAN" or whatever its called and it actually connected!
However, it assigned me a 169.something address and I opened IE in windows but it woudn't load any web pages....bummer.
I'm having a problem with the same ROM, NRG's last couple of ROM's haven't worked on Bluetooth Internet Sharing correctly for me. When I get a chance, I'm going to roll back to a few months ago when it was working for sure just to confirm it is something with the ROM.
BTW, mine connects successfully, but it doesn't give my laptop an IP correctly.
activesync don't use pan for bluetooth at all it does a direct serial connection over bluetooth not a pan network based one
here is a guide for pan
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=InternetOverBluetoothNetwork
this search should give a lot of step by step guides how one
make the com bluetooth port and connect it giving the search
as it depend on which bluetooth stack being used in both ends

Solved....sorta
OK, so yesterday I had gotten an IP address and it was connected but I thought I wasn't getting any internet service. Turns out I was, but it was incredibly slow, and the connection would go on and off. It did what I wanted to do but its not useable.
While I'm posting, I wanted to do Activesync over Bluetooth but my Fuze has COM ports from 0 to 9 and my Bluesoleil has Com ports 10 and up. How am I suppose to get the two to communicate if I can't get them on the same port? If I try to create a new port in Bluesoleil it starts and 13 and keeps going up...
bever used that bluesoil but heard many bad things about that stack
never had any issues using ms or vidcomm stacks both on the pc side and pda side
and cross
but never really used PAN as I have a wifi router and even if I did not then
they are dirt cheap and if you got a cable or adsl modem you just plug that into the wifi router and connect your desktop with a cable as they are also swtichs
Changed ROM, very fast now
I changed ROM's this morning to the AHEN_ROM and wow, what a difference. Just connected to see what would happen and its just as fast as the USB connection was. I'm not sure what is different about the ROM's but I can surf the web over my phone connection very nicely now.
