Beam? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Why does my Tilt show the Beam option under connections? Why would that still be there if they did not put in a Irda port?

"Beam" by bluetooth I believe.

"Beam" enable the object transfer over BT. Enable it if you want to receive a file over BT.

Even on my mda vario it was ****e for IRDA I only ever used beam for bluetooth which it worked fine for, get the 10 button comm manager from duttythroy and you can enable/disable beam from the CM page.

Good Call.
Changing COM ports?
I've got a 6515a and a Hermes. Prior to upgrading to WM 6.1 on the Hermes, I was able to connect the two devices for GPS thru bluetooth, but now I can't get a connection. Is there anyway to change the COM port for bluetooth Serial porting? My Hermes only gives me the option of COM 1,3,5,8, but 6515 broadcasts on 4. Any way to change 6515 to 5?

"BEAMMING" With The Tilt Phone

can you "BEAM" with the tilt? can someone shine some light on that? some said you can and some said you can't which one is it?
it has no IR, so it cannot, but the beam function is still built within window. You can enable the function, but there is no hardware to do anything with it.
u mean beaming files from the Tilt to other devices??
I've beamed lots of files from the Kaiser to other Winmo phones using Bluetooth.
I havent used it to "beam" myself up to the final frontier though.

it can beam but it does not use IR
Beaming activates the bluetooth on the device

You can send info via bluetooth..but to be able to recieve info via bluetooth you must go to your bluetooth page and ,ake sure your phone is discoverable by checking the box!!!!!
*I actually helped someone* YAY!!!!!!!

HTC TYTN2 ad a Bluetooth GPS?

Hi
Is there any software for the tytn2 which will allow me to use it as a bluetooth gps?
Thanks
i have installed a program named GPSgate. You can try this... but i never tested it. You can link your gps to bleutooth virtual com port and trough USB i thougt.
Good Luck
GPS2Blue, work perfect with my Kaiser and my UMPC via bluetooth
Looks like GPS2Blue will do the trick - what settings did you use on the TYTN2 ?
Thanks
I had the same question this morning Downloadd GPSGate end it worked perfect as a GPS via BlueTooth.

No just kidding. I installed the software on my TyTN II. Then started the program and it came with a wizard. I checked Active Sync and BlueTooth. After that you have a new row at the bottom of your screen. There you can see that it is active. I turned on the BT on my device. Then browsed BT devices on my computer and there a got a SPP port and it was mapped to COM18. In my program (which we wrote ourselves at our company) I connect to COM18 and all works fine.
Yes Blue2GPS is small, simple, light and it worked with NO FUSS and no bull.
I can use the GPS on my phone to track my position using Google, Microsoft's Live search and Delorme all the while sending a GPS signal to my laptop where I can also track my position - Lots of fun!
GPS2BLUE is but simple - It works.
Beautiful. Had exactly the same question and this has flatly answered it I spent hours this morning trying to get my Tytn2 to work as a standalone GPS receiver that my old brick of a Ipaq h6340 could use for it's SatNav software.
Thank you to all
Yep, try GPSGate.....
This is going to sound silly, but is it possible to share a bluetooth GPS via Bluetooth on the Tilt?
I have an unused smartphone with Tom Tom on it which I'd like to use as a car nav so my Tilt isn't tied up doing it. But I want the Tilt having use of the GPS for TrackMe and other things.
I will not use the Tilt's GPS for many reasons, so I use a Bluetooth GPS, and share it out to multiple programs on the Tilt via GPSGate. All that works well. But it'd be nice to be able to share the bluetooth GPS with the other smartphone as well.
AFAIK the GPS won't connect to multiple devices, and I tried to set up a bluetooth output in GPSGate which didn't seem to work. I know the Tilt can connect to multiple devices on Bluetooth, but perhaps GPS data is too much to share. But figure it's worth asking.

how to get a2dp working

i cant find how to get this working on my kaiser.
ive got s2p i heard thats supported

Yes, s2p will work ok with wireless stereo bt devices. I use motorola s705 and t505 a2dp devices. I don't think that the apps need to specifically support a2dp since every multimedia app I have used has worked.
Sometimes the a2dp connection is not established when I want it. Note that both devices also work in modes other than a2dp.
BatteryStatus includes optional tray icons for phone, wifi and BT. The BT icon menu includes an a2dp indicator/on-off switch. Sometimes i use this for the T505 to force the a2dp connection.
A2DPToggle also works. It is a Today plug-in. I read that it is a battery hog but haven't confirmed. If you can't get a2dp working using A2DPToggle then you might want to dig deeper into your phone/rom.
I am using stock WM 6.1 roms from HTC or at&t (official - test) generally without problems but have to muck around sometimes to get a2dp working by either toggling BT on/off on either the handset or BT device.
i want to kno how to use it tho there doesnt seem to be an app for it i tried finding my mates stereo with my bluetooth stock app and it didnt work how do you initiallise a2dp on the stock roms.

GNS TrafficBox Plus FM9BT-C to autoconnect

I have paired this and it works perfectly if you manually connect to the Serial Port (COM2) but I would like to launch bluetooth and it automatically connect if it is available.
Is this possible on the widcom stack without a mortscript.
Thanks,
Bluetooth won't know it's in range unless Bluetooth is turned on!
If bluetooth is turned on, it'll automatically connect anyway.
I've got a bluetooth FM transmitter for the car, and what I do is use G-Profile to turn on Bluetooth if the phone is on external power (when I connect it to my car charger). Works well, and would do the trick for what you want, I imagine.
