Windows Mobile Device Center & Bluetooth

I was wondering if anyone has managed to get this working. I have a TyTn and am using a kensington dongle with the latest widcomm drivers. But to get my computer to pair with my phone WITH activesync as a feature is nearly impossible and there is no way to connect with WDMC, through USB it works fine.
Any help would be appreciated

Same problem with me...
And I can't also connect to Internet when I'am synchronized with Windows Vista Ultimate...
Help, please...

Internet is working now... Windows Mobile Device Center update: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...ea-9df9-4920-af33-3a0e2e4e7beb&DisplayLang=en.
But my problem with Bluetooth remains...

Bluetooth connection through activesync

Hi guys,I have a problem with my vox..I have a notebook with windows xp and activesync 4.5..I connect it to my phone easily using usb cable (also internet connection works),but there is no way to connect it through BT.I tried to add a new COM port by the phone port but i failed..Could somebody help me to fix this problem?Thank you very much,regards..

old active sync for Windows XP does not include BT connection for sync. Use Windows Vista where you can sync your device via BT. That is the only way how to use BT for sync.

Drivers work infact I can connect it to my pc through BT (I can also transfer files) but in connection settings on activesync 4.5 cannot find the option "through BT"..There is only sth about COM3/COM4 devices
I would like to share my laptop's internet connection without using usb cable..Please help me!!

Can I connect wirelessly to active sync?

Basicly what I want to do is to connect wirelessly to active sync using my TCP/IP connection!
Is that possible, and if so how?

Not an exact answer to your question, but you can connect via bluetooth, if your computer has it, or if you have a bluetooth dongle on you computer.

Yes, but then I dont get the speed and range of a wifi network

You can use Google sync. but its limited to contacts and calender.
http://www.google.com/mobile/winmo/sync.html

you can use soti pocket controller

the sync of activesync can't even keep up with the speed of usb so
even back in the old days when activesync did support wifi sync
it was not faster then usb sync
but the feature was removed because of security issues

Can't usb tether or use hotspot with my computer

Anyone else having this problem?

Please describe it better, then it will be easier to help you

Well, neither usb or hotspot internet sharing is working. My computer can detect the hotspot, but according to the diagnostics tool it doesn't have a valid IP adress. I used my old phone like this all the time, never had any problem.
Im sorry, Im not a tech-y guy, don't know what else I can tell you..

for allmost 2 weeks i've been using this feature without any problem, PC with 64bit win 10 pro, xz runs on android 6.0.1 39.0.A.250. Try to repair software with xperia companion, install all drivers etc. try it with other devices if it does not work it's probably something wrong with phone. In thetering settings there is a visibility setting set it to visible to other devices ( for wireless connection). via usb did you tried with other usb ports in your pc/laptop? have you installed some programms like hamachi etc. they can sometimes mess up some settings in a pc or a anti-virus/firewall is blocking it.

which version of Windows 10 do you install? 1511 or 1607
It won't work for version 1607 (14393) with Sony xperia XZ or X performance.

Right now im on 1607 14393.447and it works fine.
