I jut encountered another Problem (which is severe in my opinion):
I connot connect to my Notebook over the active Sync Bluetooth Option.
It shows the Notebook, when searchning for it, bit Active Sync 4.0 doesn't seem to give the right service...
I am having this activesync problem also.
I can sync using the cradle. I tried setting up the connect via BT, but the BA is giving me a message : "Cannot find an existing Bluetooth partnership with a PC that supports Activesync. Would you like to set it up now?"
And i believe that i did set it up already.
my phone settings are:
under BT devices on my phone my computer is listed. under com ports i have Incoming com port 8.
my PC settings are
Devices : My phone
Options: all checked
COM ports: COM8 incoming
in MSActive sync 4.0:
connection settings: All checked ..."Allow connections to one of the following: COM8"
still cannot figure out what is wrong.
I am currently using WM5 and Activesync 4
When i was using WM03SE and Activesync 3.8 it was working fine.
same problem here
No way to create a synch connection via bluetooth.
It might be another MS bluetooth bug !
is this really not possible? I think this is a huge problem. Might rollback to 2003 until there is a fix.
ActiveSync w/BT okay here...
I can sync via BT without a problem.... it was a little strange on how the AS connection was created.
Anyway, I made sure my laptop was paired with the SX66. Started ActiveSync on the SX66, an clicked on ActiveSync via Bluetooth in the Menu. A screen popped up saying there were no valid BT connections and took me to the BT manager. I chose my laptop and an "Activesync Connection" was created... On the PC, I made sure to allow the proper COM port in AS (in my case, AS always used Com5 when using WM2003).
I didn't create and Incoming/Outgoing connection prior to the PDA prompting me, also deleted any existing partnerships on PDA and PC.
Sorry for the vagueness, this was one of the first things I tried after upgrading to WM5... I can try to answer any other questions. Good luck!
Just got it to work.
collowed chen's directions sort of.
I deleted existing partnerships on MS Activesync on PC and SX66.
I deleted existing pairing on Bluetooth devices under PC BT icon.
I enabled a comport under Bluetooth Devices/ COMPORTS for incoming.
I re-added the sx66 under bluetooth devices, set pass key, this time on my sx66 it listed "activesync" as one of the services offered.
Acknowledged everything on the SX66.
Then opened Active sync (at this point i still did not add the sx66 to activesync on my PC) on SX66.
Chose connect VIA BT under menu, and woila it asked if i wanted to create a partnership.
Now i am syncing via BT....i guess the difference between WM5 and wm03 is that with 03 i think i had to set it up via the cradle before BT.
does not work
i have tried all steps but it does not work
It depends on the PC's bluetooth stack. Anything else than Widcomm is problematic.
Hs anyone here successfully synced their WM6 himalaya with Windows Vista over bluetooth?
I am trying to sync my device with Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 in Vista over bluetooth but whenever i try to click on "Connect Via Bluetooth" in ActiveSync found in my device i get following error on my device:
"Cannot communicate with the PC because of the following Remote Networking error (Error 608)
Please reconnect your device if problem persists, restart the device."
I have tried both the roms i.e. helmi_c & c_shehkar's rom but couldnt get to sync my device over bluetooth with Vista. Previously i had a WM5 rom on my device and it synced with Vista flawlessly over bluetooth.
Can anyone help me on this matter???
In the file After_You_Flash.txt you can read:
"Once the device comes to life after hard reset for the first time, goto Settings-->Connections-->USB to PC and check the advance network functionality.
If you dont do this the device shall refuse get conncted to PC via USB."

Himalaya WM 5.0 was syncing just fine via BT ActiveSync.
WM 6.0 is not (yet).
Sascha
I cant even sync it using my USB cradle eventhough i have tried what was written in after_you_flash.txt. I am using Vista and is WMDC 6.1 is installed on Vista which is supposed to work with WM6. The problem is when i connect it thru USB, Vista fails to install a proper driver for it.

Seriously, I can't help, there're so many problems with so many apps on Vista...

utak3r the problem is that i cant do that since i am a WPF developer and need Vista for it. I kno WPF applications are possible on XP too but we as developers look forward to next-gen technologies.
All i wish is that our masters here somehow get this thing to work over bluetooth.. I wish them best of luck!!

conecting ppc (wm6) to vista via BT solution
A few months ago, I posted on some forums this solution of my own, that enables conection vista pc and wm6 ppc via BT:
OW TO CONNECT WMDC AND PPC ON VISTA
1.-run bt on your pc
2.-run bt on your ppc
3.-bond your pc and ppc via bt, that will require password on both devices
4.-once connected, your pc will show some services your ppc is offering: activesync, voice gateway, obex, etc. and will allow you to configure some of them. you can see that because under each configurable service there is a button named configure. your pc assings by default one specific com port to activesync service, that may vary depending on free com ports available on your pc. you can see the assigned port clicking on configuration button. on the new window, you can see COM PORT, and one number. For our purposes, let´s suppose it is COM5
5.-run wmdc software, modify connections and mark on "allow bluetooth connection", which is not marked by default. close wmdc.
6.-old activesync program allows to choice com port to connect to. wmdc does not. it must be set modifing windows vista registry. so, run regedit and look for the key HKLM\software\microsoft\windows ce services\serial port. this key has usually the value "bluetooth" (without quotes). well, modify it, delete bluetooth and write COM5. (or any other com port your pc has assigned to activesync). notice that we are modifing SERIAL PORT, that means wmdc uses this service to connect.
7.-close regedit and reboot pc in order to allow changes in the registry.
8.-run again bt on both devices.
9.- run "add new bluetooth devices" on your pc. it will show again your ppc and services it provides, including activesync. configure again activesync service, and check out com port is still the same as before. in this configuration window, you will notice you can modify the NAME of the service, that is "activesync" (without quotes). well, change it, and write Serial Port.
10.-run again wmdc and it will connect to your ppc
what have we done?
1.-activesync ppc service is connected to pc using COM5
2.-wmdc is using serial port on COM5
3.-we change the name of activesync ppc service to serial port service
4.-both running on com5.
Does any one have a link that shows how can I ActiveSync to Vista's Mobile center , via BlueTooth. The Kaiser can see the notebook via bluetooth but does not recognise that it is cappable of ActiveSyncing.
This is how I Activesync most of the time.
When you open Activesync on your Kaiser, there should be an option on the Menu to connect via bluetooth.
It normally configures the port etc automatically.
I have a problem trying to connect to ActiveSync by bluetooth .
When I pair diamond to PC not appear the service "ActiveSync", but "Serial Port".
Therefore ActiveSync, can't connect to my PC.
I have already configure ActiveSync on PC to connect on right Com port.
Please help me
I had this problem.
You have to pair the PC to the Diamond. ie search for the device on your PC then pair. (Unpair the origonal setup first)
Hope this helps
I had this problem. Until I activated Bluetooth PAN (networking) on my desktop PC. After this "Active Sync" was available when pairing the device.
The issue have been resloved,I modify the Register, change serial port to ActiveSync
Sorry if this has already been answered I have been searching the forums to no avail.
Has anyone come up with a programme that will connect to activesync when in bluetooth proximity without having to click on the "connect via bluetooth" similar to the way Nokia phones can ?
hi guys,
i have a problem concerning the sync of my x1 via bluetooth connection...means that i can establish a bt partnership. but when i hit "connect via bluetooth" in the x1s activesync it says that it cant establish a connection to a activesync-supporting pc. an wheter i want to establish a bt-partership with another device. when i hit yes i can search for another device. when i search a again for a bluetooth fitted device it (of course) shows me my pc.
the weird thing: at first launch of the x1 it worked via bt!!!
I checked the services:
x1: Active Sync is activated...
in bt-settings on my pc: ActiveSync Bluetooth Service is also activated and OBEX. In the windows mobile device center the setting is: allow connections via: bluetooth. I also can choose IR and COM 3.
i tested if bt works by sending a (jpeg)file from the x1 to my pc...this is no problem.
cant figure the problem out. why can i transfer files but not sync via windows mobility center...crazy crazy...hope you can help me!
thanks a lot guys!
trekkie2003
seems like i have this problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-347472.html
i have tried to connect with following settings:
PC:
- Windowsmobility center: allow connections via com6
- bluetoothdriversettings: services "ActiveSync Bluetooth Service" is enabled!!! I also added incoming (serial) com connection on port 6 (com6)
X1 activesync: - services enabled: serial connection. Under COM-Connections there is an outgoing connection on com6...
as you can see no service "activesync" in the service list...but as alreade told the service "serial connection"
the problem still exists and active sync on my x1 gives me that error message:
"cannot find an existing bluetooth partnership with a pc that supports activesync..."
hope for some helpful advice...
greetz
trekkie
after numerous faq and forum post i figured out that the service on the x1 has to be "ActiveSync". it wont work with the "serial connection" service enabled! An in my case a only get the activesync service when i choose "allow connections via: bluetooth" in windowsmobile device center... but problem still exists..."cannot find an existing bluetooth partnership with a pc that supports activesync..."
you should not make the outgoing com on the pda
the guides they have here
http://www.geekzone.co.nz/content.asp?ContentId=3163
are still pretty valid seen from the pda's side
or you can google for other guides which step by step explain it on the
vista platform but
your issue is the way you set it up
thx rudegar for your reply and the link...
this was just a try with making an outging port on my pda...there is NO outgoing port added in my pda!!
i only set windowsmobile device center to com3 (allow connections via com3) and the incoming port of the pcs' btstack to com3...checked services on pda and pc...on both sides "active sync" is enabled! but problem still exists...
as my problem unfortunately isnt solved...to make sure nothing is interfering with bt stuff on vista i rebooted my pc. rechecked all settings. WMDC automatically reset the connection to Bluetooth! i changed it again to com3 as my btstack incoming port is also port 3.
i took a screenshot of the settings on my pc...(settingspc.jpg, see attachment)...
as i dont know how to make screenshots of my pda i can only tell you the settings of my pda....so i continued on my pda: active sync=> connect via bt => "error message: cannot find an existing bluetooth partnership with a pc that supports activesync..." => adding my pc to bt devices =>checking services on pda: only serial connection service...re-checked the services on pc... activesync is enabled (as you can see in the image)...
wmdc resets the connection settings to bt on every windows startup to bt!!! i downloaded a guide from toshiba für vista @winmo6. I did it exacetly the way they went through it like me!
btw. tried it also again with com6...but...no way... im starting to get really anoying about this...
I never had any problems with any of my WM 6-6.1 devices on my Vista64 system.. I have bluetooth in "Allow connections to one of the following" selection. No serial ports needed in WM device or in Vista...
But Before you sync, open the Windows Mobile Device Center on your Vista Computer!!!
Now open Activesync in your X1. Then just choose connect by bluetooth in WM Activesync App!!
Good Luck
Stuart
thats the way it worked at first launch!! just activated bt and here we go...no need chang com ports... maybe i should hard reset the x1 but i hate to re-install all programms i have on my device again as PIMbackup only saves contacts, calendar but not installed progams...
Hi
please can somebody explain to me how to connect my x1 via bt
I read many threads and still have a problem
I'm using windows XP SP3
thank you bye
my solution
I'm using ActiveSync over BT (R10 rom, Vista Laptop) but not really without problems...
For the 1st connection X1 never get's connected to Lappi. My Solution:
Make BT on Local Maschine unvisible, then again visible and after that on X1 -> ActiveSync -> Connect over BT.
What I don't like at all, ist that my BT on Laptop has to be visible:/ and compared to Nokia N95 (how there is working BT synch) the ActiveSync on WM6.1 is really crap.
Hope it can help you.
Best,
Mag
I did that but my X1 show me massege that cannot find partnership and I'm sure I have partnership
I use the COM method but I don't know how to select incoming port in my X1 I have only outgoing port
any idea please
same
I had same problem till 1 Week ago. I could not get rid of this message... finally I've flashed my X1 to the latest R10 ROM. Till now it works.
BTW: The R10 Rom is really the fastest I've ever tried on my Xperia (mp4 Videos without played without freezes and lauder music/tones). Maybe it is worth for you to do the upgrade too.
Best,
Mag
Quick reply without reading all your details, but maybe this will help.

I was don't know about new ROM
I upgrade my X1 to new ROM

I had the same problem with broadcom bluetooth. I downloaded new driver for my PC, upgraded, and after that I saw "activesync" service in my bluetooth services. I set COM (COM6) and synchro works fine now
Try to upgrade PC drivers.
