OBEX on Tilt? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Does the tilt support OBEX file transfer and push service for bluetooth? I know about the reg setting (..Microsoft/Obex/IsEnabled to 1) but it doesnt seem to be working. I also found a cab in one of the other forums (i cant find a link right now to show) and it seemed to help a little but i still get a lot of errors when i try to connect using Bluezard, saying things like There was an error in the OBEX service and that it cant find the OBEX Push service.
Is there a fix or is it just something i did to screw myself over?

Alright, screw it, ill just not mess with bluetooth as its obvious no one has ever had this problem...

Yes,
The Tilt does support OBEX on an official ROM, used it quite extensively. However, can't seem to find a OBEX package to cook a ROM cuz there's lots of variables to it.

Im using the standard tilt rom but i still have not been able to get bluetooth to really work. I found i thread with my same problem, but no real answer.
I can receive bluetooth files fine, but i cant send them. If i select beam it will just pop up, ill click the name, "Pending..." > "Sending 1/1" > "Failed".
before its suggested. I have Receive all incoming beams selected.
I have enable file share (Bluetooth FTP tab) selected.
I have my devise visable and discoverable.
i have changed the registry of Obex "IsEnabled" to "1"
also i think i MAY have found the possible culprit. in one of the bluetooth fix cabs i have downloaded. it modifies part of the registry to this:
Under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Obex\Services\{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}
It changes "Server" to the value "obexinbx.dll", but that file is not in my windows folder. is there a place i could get that DLL? (this is not the same as obexfile.dll right? because i have that...).

you can just use the advanced configuration cab and you can enable OBEX

Bluetooth sharing

I don't know if i'm missing something here, but the bluetooth manager folder in file explorer seems useless.It never finds any of my devices and i have no idea why. It says searching but can't find anything. It can't find my 8525 when it' on and visible. Does the 8525 have to have this for it to work? If not, how can i get it working? Thanks

I had problems with this too, couldn't find the receiver device when trying to send a file.
This worked for me:
You have to do kinda "shake hands" of the devices the first time.
Goto Start menu -> settings -> connections -> bluetooth -> devices -> add new device
(could be named a little bit different, I translated from my german device)
You will be asked for a password. I normally use 0000 (standard BT password), even if it's not the savest way I think
The other device will recognize this and also askes for the password.
Once the device is mentioned in the devices list, sending and receiving to/from it will be possible.
I hope this was what you asked for.
Greetz,
Hans Olo
My problem
I have done the whole pairing thing but when i do the discover services it say no services found and it's not connected please advise
u need to go in the BT configuration and under FTP tab check the Enable File Sharing.
For some reason or maybe for me only, this settings does not stick, and I have to do it anytime I want to exchange files. But once I tick the box, I am able to transfer files, contacts and such.
On the same FTP page you can choose to activate the BT explorer. This will browse other BT enabled phones ?! I guess. More like BT jacking?!
is there a cab for the BT Explorer as it is not cooked into the rom I have ??

Bluetooth OBEX

Hello,
I try to send files via bluetooth to a C500 or other phones but each time i have an Error message from Obex : "Cannot connect to the Obex device. It is either not accessible or does not support selected device". I have disabled Obex in Resco explorer and i have put the value to 0 in the registry (HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Obex\IsEnabled) but it did not change anything.
Does anybody know how i can doto be able to send and recieve files from everybody ?
Thank you, and have a good day.
MA
Please, tell me if i am alone to have this kind of probleme, are you able to send files with all other phones ?
I can see that nobody use his bluetooth.
Thank you
I have no problem at all.
1. Add new device, in bluetooth settings.
2. Click FTP tab and make sure "enable file sharing" is checked
3. Beam the file you want. After you are paired.
Thants what I do and have always done, and it works fine for me.
EDIT* Make sure the other device has filesharing permissions set. I.E. allow file transfers. Not enabling this on the recieving device will throw that error.
Hey, just seeing if it worked for ya. Let me know
you're supposed to put 1 for IsEnabled

Essential processes for AT&T Tilt Users after each rom flash

Essential processes for AT&T Tilt Users after each rom flash
I know this has been mentioned thousands of times throughout this forum yet n00bs often need assistance fixing their hardware keyboards, email, HTC weather, quick gps, and so on after they flash a new rom for the first time.
While hanging out in Bansville for a couple of days I realized I have been answering the same questions continuously. This is a mini text tutorial, which offers simple fixes for imperative AT&T settings.
So you installed a version of hardspl, flashed a new rom, and performed a hard reset. What next? Well primarily in all probability, you want to make sure the clock settings are in am and pm format and the date is set to m/d/y. To change your clock settings follow this navigation
Start>settings>system>regional settings>time tab>time style drop down set to h:mm:ss tt
To change your date setting:
Start>settings>system>regional setting>date tab> select the date style of your choosing and select ok.
Next, I like to restore my files such as my appointments, contacts, text messages, etc. I personally prefer to use PimBackup. Below is a .zip file for PPCPimBackup. It is an uncomplicated program to use and a lecture is unnecessary to navigate throughout this application, as it is straightforward.
After I restore my files, it is time to inaugurate the Tilt keyboard fix, which repairs your slide-out QWERTY keys to be mapped correctly. For example, without this fix Fn+W will appear as ! opposed to @. Below is the cab file you need to install to remap the keys appropriately. Following the installation of this cab file, perform a soft reset.
The next thing I usually do is correct my connection settings. First, I install ATT_Settings.cab, which you can find below. Then I navigate to the following:
Start>settings>connections>connections>select the advanced tab>select networks>Change both drop downs to Media Net> select edit on both drop downs>proxy settings tab>uncheck everything for both media nets that you changed>then hit ok or x when you are finished.
At this time, I set up my email. However, remember NOT to save your password, you will do this in the following step. If you are using HTC HOME, most likely you are, select the little envelope and create a new account. You can find your email settings by using google if you are using pop3 or whatever.
Next, after I set up my email without saving the password, I install removehiddenproxy.cab, which you can find below. This cab file is important as it allows your pop3 email account’s password to save without adding extra characters, allows for your quickgps to function properly each time, and it also allows you to use HTC Home Weather without getting a connection failure. So install this cab then go back to the email you just set up, edit the account setup, enter your password, and save it. Now, go back to your today screen and tap your weather tab. Now tap Select City and select your city (*Note there are a few patches available to select your town if you do not live in a big city). Anyhow, notice the menu button where your right softkey is, select menu and turn your temperature scale to Fahrenheit and select done.
I suggest setting up your WiFi at this time too.
Well this is my mini tutorial for a basic setup on your AT&T Tilt after you flash a new rom.
Have Fun Flashing and Take Care.
*Special thanks to the creators of these cab files and JimmyMcgee for teaching me the basics.
Am I missing something too?
Is there something to do regarding getting a reasonable GPS fix after flashing newer 6.1 roms or is it a known problem. I keep flashing down to older 6.0 roms with 1.27.14.09 radio because of the faster GPS fix. I would love to use the newer roms but GPS fix time is a deal breaker for me. To save you some time I use SPL 3.28 with 6.0 roms and 3.56 with 6.1 roms. I bounce between Q-mobile and RomEos roms now that we lost dutty. Ive tried all the newer radios and personally they all stink for GPS. Sorry about your brief ban and welcome back, I need your wisdom
*cough* sticky
AWESOME. I keep saying I need to: Start fresh, get NetCF 3.5, get a light rom. But it all seems so complicated to go from current configuration to start over completely, but this will help a lot! Thanks! Now to find the time and the 'right' ROM.
Thanks very much for the reminders, and for the CABs. I flashed my first 6.1 ROM last night, and forgot all about the hidden proxy!
I agree that this really needs to be a sticky...
This is a good tutorial, but here is a good side note to add.
By removing the hidden proxy (which ya do with the removehiddenproxy cab), Tilt users won't be able to get to media net (http://device.home or http://home) or cingular video as the hidden proxy is needed for those.
Then they should just use the Restore Proxy, and that will allow MEdiaNet.
Proxy Manager has both in it.

Did you try 1.71.09.01 ? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410953
Been having the same issue and finally I think got a break. Tried about 10 SR's and the lock times are steady inside the house.
BTW using DK2
does windows mobile have a localhost file like windows? would remapping those to their needed servers allow the bypassing of the proxy?

Nice tutorial
I downloaded your PPCPimBackup zip file but when I attempted to open it I received the following prompt: "The central directory was not located . . ." etc.
Thanks for the post BTW. Very helpful and informative.

you were unable to open the zip file? I'll check it out and reupload it if necessary.
edit: works ok here my friend. Unzip the file to your desktop and move it to your storage card then run the program hopefully it works for you.

I deserved the brief ban.
Anyhow, I noticed that when running 6.1 roms with the Tilt you need an application such as HTC GPS Tool or GPS Test, to open your internal gps, prior to opening your GPS Software.
These are the steps I use to utilize a GPS Fix after each soft reset:
1) download latest updates for quickgps
2) Open GPS Tool>com 4>baud 4800>Hot Start>Then click Open and wait like 30 seconds
3) Open TT7
*If you fail to get a fix after following these steps close all programs and repeat. Eventually you should be getting fixes within seconds.
I've attached GPS Tool for you, good luck.
What exactly does the remove hidden proxy cab do on AT&T Tilts? If you go into your connection settings and uncheck the proxy server- is that the same thing or something different than the cab file does?
Hey Red,
I attached an ATT settings cab which does not enable the proxy by default, and also enableds creation mode in MMS settings. I thought it might be helpful for your thread here. Also, it may seem too advanced for beginners, but i have a thread started here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=418468
This has a step by step guide to how to create an xml file using Schap's Advanced Config 3.0, which can be used to provision all of your advanced config preferences during your UC setup. This tool has really made it very easy to do reduce the amount of work that goes into flashing.
I also attached a cab for total commander, a free, more full featured file explorer; gps test, another gps tool; and advanced config 3.0. Hope it helps.
Thanks... this is a great thread!!!

I'd really like to know this too!
Why would anyone ever want the proxy checked? Does it do something for you to have it checked?

It removes a HIDDEN proxy, one that you can't remove without a cab. Without it enabled you can't connect to medianet home, and some other things. Most users like to disable it for a myriad of reasons, one of which is that it causes you to be unable to browse while connected to your laptop.
The box that you check in connections is a separate issue, and i think that is actually just old settings, i'm not sure, since even on the AT&T website it tells you no not to have that checked.

Awesome. So, if I run the cab and remove the hidden proxy- can I then tether my laptop (connect to the net using the Tilt's data)- without getting caught by AT&T? Or is there more to tethering without getting caught?

Can send but cannot recieve via Bluetooth :S Please Help.

Hey all,
I have a weird problem that I discoevered today is that I can send but cannot recieve anything via Bluetooth...I paired with another device and allowed for incoming beams...do not know what the problem?..Any possible solution?
Thanks much.
I haven't test receiving files via bluetooth, but I noticed in Advanced Configuration Tool, OBEX is disabled for Diamond and Touch Pro. My previous device, O2 Atom Life, if OBEX is disabled, it can't receive file via bluetooth.
Hope the info helps.
start - settings, connections tab - beam -recieve all incoming beams

Yea..No device can send my anything...all of them give "Sending Failed."
I have the exact same problem - no solution yet though
my friend also has this problem, do you have the O2 XDA Diamond by any chance?
I think its somehow related to the apps installed like Diamond Tweak or Advanced Config.. but I can not find any solution till now..
Hope if someone has experienced the same and solved the problem to reply in this thread.
Weird, even when my OBEX setting is disabled (shown in Advanced Configuration Tool), but the OBEX service is running (I use SKTools). The point is, to receive files via bluetooth, OBEX service must be started.
For my Touch Pro, I am able to receive files from bluetooth.

When OBEX enabled this means the service has started? or I have to manually start it by another means?..

OBEX enabled in Advanced Configuration Tool does not mean the service is started. It works just like Windows service for automatic, where the service should be started after a soft reset. Anyway, I think the OBEX setting in Advanced Configuration Tool has no effect on the setting (just like TouchFlo, if you disable it, it is still enabled).
The best is to check the service itself. You can use free Task Manager (find it in this forum) or SKTool.

Thanks a lot mate..much appreciated.
I downloaded the task manager and checked the services.
Actually OBEX is there but is not started. I try to start it, it give me the following error " Service Start Error: The device is in use by an active process and cannot be disconnected." I dont know why I cant start it..I dont use the bluetooth at the moment..I just checked bluetooth and beam to be on. Any ideas mate?
Cant thank u enough for ur help.
I also checked dll name of OBEX service and went to processes tab and selected services.exe and showed details of services.exe
I found OBEXsrvr.dll the dll of OBEX inside services...so maybe there is something wrong in the dll file that might be replaced by new one?? what do u think?
Because I think everything is there and enabled but I cant just start the service.
Mate thats a screenshot of my OBEX registry settings.
OBEX Registry Screenshot
What do u think? I dont know what Flags and Unsigned services are doing there? But i think they are part of Advanced Config or Diamond Tweak..am I right?

Hope right area, how do I install CAB to phone

Well, just when i think I have things figured out. If a cab is right for my phone, how do I get it onto the phone. Can I do it by the USB hooking it up to my Desktop and then copy and paste into the phone from the desktop? How do I then look at the phone and see if that cab is really there and launch it??
I have a file that tells me it's a CAB file to launch the BTAG that activates the Bluetooth settings and Voice Mail 1.6. It is from a cooked ROM and I only want this one CAB....
Thanks

Just put the .cab in intern memory or your storage card. Launch it (by clicking on it) via File Explorer.

hmm, the question is ok but not as a new thread, not in dev; how about general - newbies questions?
I really do hope that you don't make it a habit of yours starting new threads for every single question you have, urgent or not
thx for helping him
to finalize: use disk drive mode to get it to your phone via usb (activesync might lead to data conversion), you are able to select the target folder, disconnect, open a file explorer, navigate to your dir containing the cab and click/double click it for installation
depending on the cab it will either be installed (to device mem) or you will be asked where to install it (device mem or sd)
done and best
Mod. edit: CLOSED, answered, duplicate, wrong forum
