I am not able to use the receiver with Autoroute 2004(pocket streets). The manual suggests that I ensure a virtual COM port is established before connecting the receiver, which I am not able to get around. I am lost and stuck with an expensive receiver. Can some help, please? ASAP
Daz, when you try to run the program does it give the option to choose your gps/com port?
no, nothing came up on the screen. Fortunately I have been able to resolve the problem. Need to disable to incoming beam option in connection setting
I currently have the same problem with rakaline 6031-x7 and tomtom navigator. I use to connect the gps reciever via blutooth manager as slave and then set it up in tomtom on my ipaq. now I can't find any options in bluetooth settings on my xda2. Any chance of a little help?
:?
gavcha, the xda2 is braindead where bluetooth is concerned, are you running the latest gps 2.09 from tomtom? If you are using that and it still isnt working, download towas patch, remove the gps from the bonding on your bluetooth, install towas patch, run tomtom wizard, gps manager in discoverable mode, add device in bt manager by choosing "new", choose the gps, ok everything, towas patch should then come up and give you the serial option, choose that. When finished go to tomtom gps, choose tomtom bluetooth and in the second drop down your gps should be available, choose that and it should work.
Cheers mate. me being the impatient ba£$%rd that I am found this site

Very usefull, up and running in no time. Seems to be in the same vein as your suggestion. Thanks for all your help I am slowly getting use to this xda milarky! Finaly I can sell the Ipaq!!!!
Cheers again.
Good to know it works, when O2 release the update it should get better, by the way that link you posted has been a pain in the ass for me, I have clicked that link in numerous posts and NEVER been able to connect, I have the patch now but does anybody else have problems linking to the above link.?
yeah i had problems going back to it when i was checking it to put it in my last post. try googling xda2 bluetooth manager. thats what took me to another forum with the link to this. worth a try. :idea:
Is it possible?
I believe so, there are a few programs that will help you out. The 8125 ships with Cingular’s "wireless modem driver".
Would that be on the OEM CD? Also, how do you use it?
If you are using WM6 just start Internet Sharing ...and active sync will automaticaly configure your device as a modem (no driver neded)
If you are using WM5 start Modem Link and use attached files (contains instructions too)
...but will AOL recongnize it as a modem and allow me to connect (dial-up) using the cell phone line instead of my land line?
Maybe, but I doubt it. Your best performance senario would be to use the instructions posted above for establishing a connection to the internet then setting up AOL to use a TCP/IP (Network) connection instead of Dialup. It's been more than a coupl of versions since I've used AOL, but it should be somewhere in the connection settings.
sync up to active sync and then open programs on ur phone then modem link..pretty simple..
try to use Internet Sharing, Good Tool
ya WM5 uses DUN so you will need to activate modem link and have the drivers ready. then you have to create a proper DUN connection
WM6 is hella easy. just activate internet sharing and plug it in. It works as a PAN (like a network adapter) so all you have to do is open a browser after it's plugged in.
AOL will work for both. However it works different for each one. if you use WM5, there is an actual modem that AOL can select. It's called HTC USB modem. You can also setup AOL to use the existing TCP/IP connection. This is how you would do it if you are using WM as well.

I used the above drivers, with wm5 on my 8125 and I'm able to use my phone for Laptop internet access through a USB connection.
This works great.
Only problem is that now, after installing the drivers, when I plug in my device active sync does not communicate with the phone....

Edit:
Nevermind (light-bulb pops into mind as he realizes how to turn "modem link-off" from 8125 menu...

What about if I want to send a fax from either the phone or my computer? How can I dial to remote fax machine?
Thanks for help.
Faxing is so eighties!
Anything that can be faxed, can be scanned!
Anything you can do through a web browser, theoritically can be done, I have never done a search for fax software for WM5, it seems like technologies like the Wizard are on the opposite end of the spectrum from something like the telegraph or fax machine

I have Cingular, and I was told that you have to have a data plan in order to use the phone as a FAX machine. In other words, it's cheaper to use a FAX service.

Well, I am not going to argue the evolution of technologies. In fact, fax is still a tool widely used in today's business - I am sure a fax number shows on everyone's business card.
Staying on topic, the point is whether we can utilize a wizard for a modem to modem dial.
LONG time reader, rare poster! I've been searching for my issue here, but just can't seam to find it.
I see a LOT of posts that WM6 needs no drivers to be used as a modem. Since I've flashed my 8125 to WM6 I have not been able to use it as a modem, BECAUSE it's looking for drivers. I have no internet connection at home (because of a ghetto apartment complex and REALLY old phone lines). I can active sync my phone with no problems, but when I activate Internet Sharing, my computer recognizes an 'unknown device' and doesn't find any native drivers. My goal for this evening is to uninstall the old modem setup that I had pre WM6, in case that is causing any issues. If this doesn't work, does anyone have other ideas? (FYI - running xp pro)
Internet shareing won't go to internet
I am using internet sharing but I still can't connect to internet. Any change or setup on browser? I am using firefox.

Is this also true for a DIAL-UP modem connection? I think this one only works for wifi/GPRS/UMTS etc.... connnections?
i have a Qtek 9000 but still what to use some of my programs from my WM5
does this work?
Exchange Mail support
TOMTOM
TOMTOM Bluetooth GPS
Bluetooth
and Sync with Outlook from XP or Vista
if any can confirm this works with WM6 than i´ll go for it
i never use Video calls so that does´t matter.
Can any recommend a ROM for me?
Yep they all work.
Except if you are going to use Direct Push mail with Exchange, with a constantly active connection, you will probably have issues with your data connection hanging. The only way to resolve it is to enable/disable the radio (sometimes works) or soft reset.
To stop it happening in the first place, selecting GSM only (ie not 3G) in the Radio options does the job..
I desperately need to get ICS over WiFi working. I've tried WMWiFiRouter, but it either keeps giving me 'Fatal Error' or the connection drops off the moment the PC connects to it. I've also tried ICSControl.exe, a program that someone on XDA has created, but I just couldn't figure out how to get things going with that (or I'm too dumb).
Could someone please tell me the easiest way to get my data connection working on my laptop over Wifi? I'm using Raphael with the stock rom.
Cheers
its built in i think in the commanager last option. but it is set to bluetooth pan standard if i am correct.
you can try use advanced config 3.1 and goto data connections.. change private interface for internet sharing to wlan.
i was surprised to see Advanced Config had the option there. But it still doesn't work
I changed the private interface from the default of 'Custom' to WLAN11g1 and it asks me to soft-reset the device, which i did. Then I go into Internet Sharing, and I still only get 'USB' or 'Bluetooth PAN' as options. Am i missing something?
there is another wlan option in there.
i have no idea how this is supposed to work :/
one would think that setting this option would set the setting to wlan as supposed to. not sure if you should change it or not afterwards with the connectionsharingsettingstab. it probably overwrites the value in registry.
here is something you can try :
turn on wifi
set the option in adv config to TnetWln1
reset
turn on this wifi AP application and try using it
WMwifiRouter
Just tried WMwifiRouter on my Touch Pro and it worked fine
Works fine for me too. Takes all the hassle out of it!

2 questions:
1) Which network are you with? If your connection works but stops when you get ICS to try to connect, it may be blocked by your network if a) you are not allowed to use your mobile as a modem and/or b) ICS is not allowed. Does your connection work with standard email/web?
2) Why sharing your connection over wifi when BT pan works so well and so easily and you only need to share with your laptop? I use wifi when the laptop can connect directly to a router/hotspot, otherwise I use BT Pan. There is no real speed compromise as the bottleneck is the 3G connection itself), and BT 2.0 EDR offers a wide enough bandwidth for what you want to do. I use skype on my laptop with my 3G connection shared over BT PAN and it works a treat (that is, better than Skype 2.2 on WM!).
I'm probably missing something....

ICS has nothing to do with your carrier. It works the same way on your phone as it does on the pc. it merely routes the gateway to the devices connected to the ICS network.
I myself have a TP and use ICS with Softbank (softbank roms do not contain ICS) and it works fine.
I agree with you however, when it comes to bluetooth. Even if your PC doesnt have BT, it is well worth it to buy one of those nifty mini adapters.
they are so tiny, you wont even see them. But easy to setup and fast enough.
im with 3. nomal mail / web works fine. there are no restrictions by the network for ics. as for the BT question, I dont have BT on my laptop. it has built in wifi and i want to use that. i also have a mac n have never managed 2 get BT PAN working with os x.
Can't get BT pan to work with Vista either. My laptop does not "find" the HTC Touch pro as a pan enabled phone.
latest version works ok
Mod Edit: Attachment removed by request from the author.
the latest version is 1.10 not 0.94. have tried it with not much luck

Version 0.91 is the last "free" version of the program. It is no longer free and it's version number has changed as well, version 1.11 is the latest.

First make sure you have no active BT connection, either on your desktop/laptop or on the TP (i.e. BT Headset).
You need to go to Comm Manager (BT switched on of course!), select BT Options (lower right menu), Mode, and select "make this device visible to other devices".
Once you've setup a partnership, it will probably say "connection denied" on the first connection.
Don't be as dumb as me, got to internet sharing (all programs) and select BT Pan and Connect... Then try to connect BT Pan again...
It *should* work (works a treat on my Vista 32 desktop and my Sony TZ11 Laptop, I get around 400-500kbps down and a bit less up).
BT PAN
I followed your directions exactly, but the problem remains. I get however once the phone pairs with the laptop (HP tx2000) a request for the "Bluetooth peripheral device" driver. I can't find this driver so it has probably something to do with this.
Maybe you should try IcsControl.
It's free and works great.
Id go wmwifirouter route. I have never had good luck with icscontrol never could get it to work and it pissed me off instead

You need to update the bluetooth driver for your laptop. Check the manufacturer (in, the device manager), usually widcomm or toshiba, and try to get it from their website if HP doesn't provide it (although they should). Vista drivers usually work, but I guess you're using XP? It may be worth checking on HP website to see if their offer updated BT drivers for your laptop.

I've tried both versions of the program (free old V0.91 and trial for the commercial V1.11).
They both work with the Touch Pro (tried with my Vaio TZ11).
V1.11 is however around 20% faster (I get an average of 500kbps with V0.91, and consistently above 600kbps down with the V1.11).
So the old version gives about the same bandwidth as my BT Pan (without the convenience of sharing between more than one client), while the V1.11 seems to be better optimised and provides better bandwidth.
The response time is around 100ms for both (against around 140ms for BT Pan). Upstream is around 300kbps for both version , against 400kbps for BT Pan.
This is on a UK T-Mobile HSDPA connection, with 3/4 bars signal strength (could those who manage to get it to work let us know if they get better figures?).
You should obviously get much better with Vodafone in a 7.2Mbps area like London/Major airports.
So i recently installed Navicomputer, im going overseas and dont want to pay for knowing my way around and GPS was taking a while to connect. And then it didnt connect, just kept searching.
So i installed BeelineGPS to check and it detects my GPS.
But then gives me no lattitude or longitude or anything for that matter.
WTF?!
Walkthrough please on how to set up my GPS??
Port 7 software, Hardware port 9 with Baud 4800 (tried 9600).
Samsung I8000 running WM6.1
Easiest way is to run GPStest to determine gps ports etc and then you should be able to add these details to the program
