* When you connect a modem to a PC. A COM port is created by this Modem card. You can open this COM port and send AT commands to control the modem, initiate calls and answer calls. Well this is easy.
* NOW FOR THE REAL QUESTION:
For the PDA2K (Blue Angels) I want to know if these is an INTERNAL COM port that I can open to initiate calls over GSM and answer calls. I need to make a program that runs on WM 5 and access a COM port somewhere on teh PDA2K to initiate a GSM call and that is answered by a modem on the other side of the call. The PDA 2K is not connected to anything only a PDA with a SIM.
Please Help.

I have recently "upgraded" from xdaII to xdaIIs and I'm having a few problems. I have upgraded the BT stack to 3500 but I still can seem to connect to my tomtom gps. Device sees it but tomtom 3 cant. I'm completely confused by the connection wizard- none of the profiles seems to fit gps. I also dont seem to be able to send or receive files from my old xdaII. What am I doing wrong?
I'm also a little confused about roms. Do I need to upgrade my rom? Is there a simple way avoiding anything too technical (I've read about "country codes" and other wierd stuff). My current config is:
ROM: 1.12.62
Radio: 1.02.00
Protocol: 1337.32
ExtROM: 1.12.178
Could someone please help! I only have a few days to decide if I want to keep it or stick with my xdaII...
Gps's use the serial profile to transmit the data over - its like a virtual serial connection - so you need to tell tomtom to look on a com port AFAIK,.
For eample in my Tomtom list of connections there is one called 'BT on Com6, ' which is the bluetooth comport on my unit.
But there are also listed more com ports...
Com5
Com4
Bluetooth Serial port Com7
The XDA only actually has 1 com port (com1) so any other are virtual ports created by various software, you just need to find out which one is the one for the GPS...
So in "tomtom gps v3.07" I go to the gps tab and by default its set to infrared port. I change to "BT on com6" and click OK. When I restart the program it always resets to "infrared port" even if I try a different port. Really am stuck- never had any problems with my xdaII- just put in BT port and it picked it up automatically...
The problem is it's not always the same com port for different devices - firstly does your unit have the widcoom stack version of are you on the microsoft stack..
Whichever you have you need to find where the BT com port is configured..
On my widcomm i go to 'bluetooth setting' ; 'services' ; "serial port'; 'advanced'
in there it says...
inbound com port : 6
outbound com port : 7
so the incoming com port on my bluetooth is 6 hence the 'BT com port on 6' listed in my tomtom gps.
so you need to find your BLuetooth com port and find out which com port number it is set to. Not sure as to why tomtom gps does not save your settings, the only thing I can think of is becuase it never gets a valid signal from the comport select, and does not save the change unless it does.
Also: I assume the gps unti has a pairing with your XDA unit?
So does the widcom stack work on the xdaIIs? If so where can get it?
Sorry: I cannot be certiain the widcomm works with the IIs, but is can be downloaded from this site if you are willling to try, just do a search oin widcoom, and you will find a lot of entries...
For the MS BT stack; look under start, settings,System tab. There is a icon labeleld Bluetooth settings in there you can see/set the com ports for the bluetooth link. they also need to be enabled witch a check box before they will work...
So on "bluetooth seetings" serial port/advanced I have inbound COM port 5 and Outbound COM port 6. Below it says "Default device for outgoing serial connections: TomTom Wireless GPS. Display the device selection screen the next time an outgoing serial connection is attempted" next to a ticked box. I have tried bt com 5 and 6 in the gps settings and it wont save or recognise either. I can, however, pair and connect to the device in my BT manager but Tomtom doesnt recognise it...
Hmmm - all sound ok to me but I currently use a wired GPS, so I have not actually done it. I'm afraid I'm as stuk as you are now...
Sorry bro- I have sorted this now. Thanks...
For me, I just selected Comm 5 from the GPS status drop down and it works like magic!
i've upgrade my handset to wm6,but im not able to connect to gprs 4m my pc to phone through bluetooth dial up modem nor htc usb modem ,pls help me.
Have you been able to connect using the BT dial up networking before the upgrade?
I used to use it but I found out Cingular had changed something with their network infrastructure and I can no longer connect. (I think it had to do with Circuit vs. Packet Switching)
yes, but after upgrading im not able to connect through BT dial up modem,nor htcmodem
Does someone have a guide for connecting via BT and activesync?
I can't for the life of me get my PC to recognize my tilt it just doesn't find the device in order to create an outbound connection, any help here?
TW,
Delete all existing pairings and sync partnerships then follow the Bluetooth activesync help procedure in Activesync. It will set up your bt com ports etc in the right order for you to connect.
Still having some problems...
The device is found in the BT Devices and I was able to add an incoming port com4 but it doesn't find anything to add an outgoing port? shouldn't it have an outgoing port, it just doesn't find the device.
In activesync when I set the port to com4 and try connecting I get nothing even though in the end it shows the port com4 is available.
Any ideas?
i assume you are using XP? and have the latest bt drivers on your pc. From there delete the parings, and then pair from the pc, when you set it up at that point there should be a checkbox for the activesync service on your kaiser (much like it has for earphones). If not make sure that your activesync connection settings have "Allow Connections to the following" and then choose whatever port (i normally do port 4)
yes, Windows XP SP2.
The device gets paired with the desktop, I added a com port this time com5 as "incoming". I then opened ActiveStink and change the "allow connections to one of the following" to com5 and hit "Connect..." and no joy...
I finally get a message that my "device was not detected" and it shows the com5 port available.
TW,
[EDIT]
It was user error, I was trying to initiate the connection from my PC and not my phone... thanks for the help.
no worries. Glad if i was any help
Hi
I am trying to connect my Kaiser with my PC via bluetooth so i dont have to use the usb cable, but i am unable to
I have followed the instructions, but when i create a new incoming port connection on my PC, it chooses COM11.
When i find the PC on my phone...it only lets me choose COM0-9...so i cant pick COM11...and also it doesnt show an incoming port, just says create new outgoing port.
I have also looked at http://axim.dpicts.com/
Also how can i delete the device(my PC) that the Kaiser has found so i can try re-adding it? it wont seem to let me delete it off the list
Thanks
any ideas?
I brought that link to xda. it works great for everyone so far.
which step are you referring to from the walk through where you say "When i find the PC on my phone...it only lets me choose COM0-9...so i cant pick COM11...and also it doesnt show an incoming port, just says create new outgoing port."
Hey guys,
Trying to use software on my tytn2 that communicates to a device via bluetooth, the software seems to have a com port selection but in bluetooth settings on the tytn2 in wm6 there is no option to set an incoming com port.
Any help would be great.
Cheers
