HI,
I have been trying to connect to the internet on my Jam but via a Bluetooth connection to my Sony-Ericsson K750i.
I need to do this because my company pays the bill on the SE phone and I don't want to have to pay to download my email!
I can connect successfully from my old Palm (which I don't use anymore), from my laptop (which I don't want to carry) and from an O2 XDA Exec (tried in an O2 store) but not from my Jam.
Is anyone else able to do this? Or is it a restriction of Windows Mobile 2003 SE?
Thanks in advance

How about putting the K750i sim into the Jam when you want to check your email? That should work.
That does work but I'm trying to get my Jam to automatically connect to the phone and download my email every 60 mins.
Also, I'm interested to know whether PPCPE 2003 SE has been limited in some way to prevent the user from making a connection via an external phone.
I've also noticed that I am unable to dial over bluetooth from Pocket Informant, while my mate's Ipaq can dial my phone with no problems.

I know exactly what you're talking about. I can tell you what, though. WM2003SE does not have a limitation you're thinking of. At one time I was successfully using my girlfriend's Nokia 6681 as a BT modem for my Magician, taking full advantage of the EDGE network. It was working fine. The sad part is that it doesn't now for some wierd reason. So it can work. But for now I have yet to figure out (again) how to make it work. Maybe there is a conflict with some software, like that A2DP patch. But I think I tried it also right after a hard reset. No go.
I also tried it after a hard reset - with no better result.
I was wondering whether it might be an issue with Bluetooth on the K750i as I know it also has a problem with some headsets but if you have seen the same thing occuring with a different phone I guess it must be a PPCPE problem.
use pocket bluetooth tools
I've been using this software for about 4 months, and it works fine for my mini. I'm using a nokia 6255 bluetooth modem cdma as a bluetooth modem cause the internet rate is cheaper than gprs
I have a 2011 Jeep Grand Chreokee. When I first got the phone, it paired fine and I was able to make and receive calls through the BT. I had this setup for about 1-2 days. I then rooted the phone with the stock ROM only removing bloat ware...now I cannot connect via bluetooth back to the car. It seems to connect then disconnect me right away. Ideas?
I know this seems obvious but have you tried unpairing and repairing the phone to the car? Sometimes bluetooth can get fidgety and most of the time it requires you to repair the device. In my experience that generally solves the issues I have had with bluetooth.
Any time I have factory restored my phone I have had to repair it to any Bluetooth devices it was once connected to. Not sure if the Bluetooth address changes for the phone or not on a reset or ROM change, but it seems to be the case. My Infiniti G37s has Bluetooth and I experienced the same issue as you, pair it again and see if that helps.
Thanks for replies...I tried to repair about 6 different times...same result. It seem that the phone and audio connections both connect for about 2 seconds, then the phone disconnects.
Funny, I wanted to try this but kept forgetting. So I just went down to my garage and tried it, and it paired successfully on the first try. Tried making a call via number/phonebook and it all worked.
I'm rooted running Das BAMF 1.3, and paired it with a '11 Sonata Limited.
So I got it working...but without the phone book downloaded. The issue is in fact when it tries to download the phone book. Need to get another phone loaded up with my contacts and do a sync to get phone book loaded to car.

Did you do anything to get it working?
When the device asked me to allow connection to download the phone book, I declined, only then would it pair properly.
I think I figured it out, I have the Infiniti G37, when I rooted & re-paired the Bluetooth, somehow I ignored the question when it popped up asking to "allow" or "deny" the connection.
Yesterday during the whole 4G fiasco, I reflashed & had to re do everything this morning, when I paired my BT, it asked me whether to allow & this time I clicked allow & my BT connects & stays connected fine now.
My question is, is there a way to delete the BT pairing on the phone without having to completely wipe the phone with a reflash?

nevermind, I just found the answer

just hold down "paired"
I believe the issue is just with the MyGig radio on the Chrysler products. I have a SRT8 Magnum with the MyGig and allowing it to download the address book "Breaks" the B.T. connection. I don't know what the issue is? Perhaps too much information being sent to the MyGig and it "locks up"?
I also have a Ford Focus for a daily driver and allowing it to download the Address Book over the phone has no such issue.

It does it on my aftermarket Kenwood double-din unit, too. I've seen it happen on several Ford units too.

I updated my 430N radio with the latest firmware update and phone book downloaded and BT is working without getting disconnected.
Thanks
Thanks for that info. Although I can't do it as I have the "MyGig" retro-fitted into my 07 SRT. So, if I apply the "official update" I will lose GPS time and a bunch of other things.
But, nice to know it works.

I was wondering if my old android phone could be used as a answering machine to connect with my P6800 via bluetooth。 So I've searched for the app which can do work, but found none.
I can't do Wifi at work, but Bluetooth is allowed.
My phone (Motorola Droid Mini XT1030) supports Bluetooth internet sharing, no problem. Tested it and it works.
Only problem is my PC running Windows 8.1 can tether to the phone and use phone's internet, but not the reverse. No way to reverse-tether to the PC via bluetooth that I'm aware of, and I'd like to stay wireless.
Got an idea to use a cheap old phone as a bridge. Reverse tether cheap phone to PC via USB using ReverseTethering app, then use phone's Bluetooth tethering to share that with my XT1030. Well, turns out this is not possible, at least not with Android. Author of the ReverseTethering app confirmed it.
So that got me thinking, how about old Windows Mobile? Used to be you could just plug a WinMo phone into the PC, and it was automatically reverse-tethered. Can an old WinMo phone share that reverse-tethered internet connection to another phone via Bluetooth?
If not, any way to do that with iPhone or Windows Phone 8? I still have my old iPhone 4S and can probably get a WP8 phone pretty cheap.
No idea about WM, but give this a try?

Thanks, but that's for ICS and below, all my Androids are on KitKat.
Have a question for you smart folks. So I've run into this problem of not having a mic for my pc so bought a dongle and it doesn't work and got me thinking, must be an app for that so I looked and found the only one out there is a virus on the PC client side (won't mention names) So I'm wondering, are we able to like maybe make a midi connection through USB PC to the phone and the phone can send the audio/mic to my headset and completely eliminate the none reliability of said bluetooth dongle? I meant there has to be a way somehow if it is plugged in via USB correct?
