When most of us know GPS are using our COM4 in raphael, i wonder what about USB, i have some application ask me select COM communication but i didn't know which COM my phone assign for USB use ?
devices without usbHost can't use usb as a comport
you can with bluetooth though

When I reconnect my BT dongle after unplugging it the selected COM port disappears from the choices in ActiveSync.
Is there any way round this?
I'm using the WIDCOMM BT software. Would it help to download something else?
I have a bluetooth GPS reciever and i want to connect it on COM port 9 but in the bluetooth settings it only allows me to use 6 or 7, does anyone know how to change this?
Im using the HTC Vox if that makes a difference?
Thanks
When you say "Bluetooth settings" are you referring to the settings in the GPS software (TomTom, Garmin etc) or are you referring to the bluetooth settings in your phone settings?
When you first pair your device with the external bluetooth device, you need to set up and outgoing port (COM5 on a Himalaya, not sure what Vox would use) and also go to the advanced bluetooth settings and chose "serial connection". The com port should then appear in your GPS software bluetooth selection choices.
Let us know if this helps.
Ports :S
Thanks Jadel for the reply, i was referring to the bluetooth settings in the phone not gps software. i have paired it and and selected serial port and then it gives me a selection of ports to use: 6 or 7, but i already have things connecting to those ports and want to select another one to use? Any ideas?

the guide may not be using the latests wm version but still it should
give you a clear picture as to where on the PC you handle the activesync comports
rather then on the pda which dont use comports for activesync at all

i have a connexion problem active sync,my ppc prophet pm300 its not detected by activesync,if some know how i can connect it ?

hello
heres what i think you should check before connecting to active sync..
1. are you using vista or xp? < coz i use xp, if you use xp then heres my setting> < attached >
2. check your USB cradle or cable, try attaching the cable/cradle at the back ports of your CPU..
3. check your cable/cradle too if its working...
4.You can use a USB cable or serial cable to connect your device to your PC. Always use the cable or cradle provided by your device's manufacturer to connect your device to your desktop computer.
Connect one end of the cable to the serial (COM) port or USB port on your desktop computer.
Connect the other end of the cable to your mobile device. ActiveSync connects automatically to your device.
Important Note For additional security, disable network bridging on the PC (specifically, bridging to a Remote NDIS adapter) before connecting to the PC to pass though to the Internet or a network. For more information on network bridging, see Windows Help on the PC.
Note If you are using a serial cable, the COM port you used during installation of ActiveSync must be available (not in use) for ActiveSync to connect to your device. If you have freed the COM port for other uses, on the File menu, click Connection Settings, then click Connect. ActiveSync will free the COM port and connect to your device.
RGRDS!
Im trying to get Vag-check to work on my Htc Touch Pro.
I have only one problem, how i can change the mini-usb com port?
Program needs to use com port 1 but i dont know how to change it on my mobile device, or even how i see what com port its using?
I have my testing cable usb->car-plug
and im using following combo to get it connected to phone= Phone, Mini-Usb->Female USB->male-USB/car-diagnostic cable.
Also if that doesnt work, do you have any programs that you know of that can check fault codes from Vw cars?.
I don't know about VW fault codes, but if you want to do a vag check, try squatting on a mirror.
Hello everyone,
I am taking networking classes and I was wondering if it's possible, instead of carrying a laptop with me, to use my SGS2(rooted) to configure switches/router with.
I bought a female to female usb adapter, and i also have a USB to serial cable. So all the cabling is fine, but still when I open a console emulator i get nothing going there...
I believe it may be parity related, but there seem to be no console parity settings on any of the terminal emulators that i was able to find on the market.
Usualy, if you extablish a console connection from a laptop via USB, the usb port gets defaulted to COM3 or COM4. Do android devices have a defaulted COM port to the usb connection, Is there a config file where I can change it, or is it supported at all?
any help would be appreciated,
thanks
