Hi all,
I used to use activesync and it would sync files between the phone (my docs) and a folder on the computer. Now I have moved to WMDC and Vista and the Diamond this no longer happens - when I set the device up I ticked 'files' to be sync'd but it aint happening.
I am not using advanced USB in the connection settings as with this ticked the phone was not recognised.
Anyone got any ideas?

Yup i know how to solve the problem:
1. Computer: Go to "bluetooth places"
2. Computer: Search to your device
3. Computer: Rightclick on it and "pair"
4. Computer: "Give a digitcode"
5. Touch Diamond: Enter the same code as in 4
6. Will he connects, he ask to connect via COM4, tick "Yes"
7. Touch Diamond: Go to start - Settings - Extern GPS - Com4 -> COM3
8. Computer: Go to Windows Mobile App. Center - Settings - partnership settings - Fill in the same like on this screen.
9. Touch Diamond: Go to "ActiveSync"
10. "Menu" - "Connect via Bluetooth". There will be asked to make a partnership, press "yes".
11. Tab "Devices" - Search your computer. When found, click on it - Modify - Renew - "Seriel port/ActiveSync". Tick it.
12. End
13. Reboot both devices
14. Go to "ActiveSync" on the TD. Choose for "Connect via bluetooth" and normally it will work now.
Well, I got the bluetooth sync working no problems - but still it will not sync my files
i think it is a setting in wmdc.
Got fed up - reinstalled Vista - got the device working using advanced networking - now it works Maybe it was a driver issue?
ya i got it working for my diamond too. I installed WMDC 6.1 and tried syncing..but it keep on giving me errors. I got fed up but I uninstall WMDC 6.1 and restart my pc. When vista starts, i immediately plug my diamond in and everything went fine..it sync!! And i got no idea how did WMDC went back to installed itself after i uninstalling it.

Did a search and didn't see a thread on this. Is is possible to set up an ad hoc wifi connection with my 8125 and my laptop then surf the web from the laptop using the phone as a modem? If so, how would I set it up? Thanks in advance...
Configure Cingular 8125 as a dial up modem
Found this on Howard's Forum
"Driver Installation
1) Insert the CD that came with the phone into your drive. Close the window that opens up.
2) Open up Activesync and go to File - Connection Settings. Remove the check from the box next to "allow USB connections"
3) Connect your Cingular 8125 to your Computer via USB
4) On the 8125 go to Start - Programs - Modem Link
5) In Modem Link choose USB under Connection and wap.cingular under Access Point Name.
6) Choose "activate" in modem link
7) Your computer should recognize the device and an "add new hardware" wizard should appear.
8) Choose "No, not this time" and click next
9) Choose "Install from a list or specific location [Advanced]" and click next
10) Choose "Search for the best driver in these locations"
11) Check the box next to "Include this location in the search"
12) Browse to the Following location [CD Drive]:\OEM\APPS\Drivers\USB Modem
13) Click Next
14) A dialog box will pop up, click Continue Anyway
15) Click Finish to complete the driver installation
Connection setup
1) Go to Start - Control Panel - Network Connections
2) Choose "Create a new Connection"
3) Click Next
4) Choose "Connect to the Internet" and click Next
5) Choose "Set up my connection manually" and click Next
6) Choose "Connect using a dial-up modem" and click next
7) Choose any name you want for ISP Name and click Next
8) Type *99# in the Phone number field and click Next
9) User Name: [email protected]
Password: CINGULAR1
Confirm password: CINGULAR1
Note: the username and password need to be all in caps
10) Click Next
11) Click Finish
That's it, you should have a connection that will dial up to Cingular's GPRS network. If you have Edge service in your area you will get Edge speeds."
The windows mobile software doesn't have the ability to be a host for a ad hoc, i looked into it. The way i do it is using bluetooth, I run linux and have bluetooth on my laptop and connect to my phone that way. It works well, just slow.
Well darn. I was hoping to be able to set up a wireless connection using wifi, but guess not. Thanks Ozoner for the tips on using the usb. I'll just have to haul the usb cable around I guess.

I have played around with this, but could never get it work. Any advice on how to configure?
Can someone please talk me through installing and setting-up blackberry connect for BIS (Thats if it is possible to use it under BIS). I can't for the life of me manage to do it.
I'm in desperate need! Help!
Cheers
I will make a donation to anyone who can solve this ASAP, as it is quite urgent.
Cheers
Alright dude, this info is all over the place, but I'm gonna help you anyways.
BBC will work with BIS, I've been using it for two years.
It works better with some roms than others, & some I have found not at all.
There are several important steps in getting it to work.
First, BBC is an important app for those that use it. Nothing more important than getting my business emails. Follw these steps & let me know.
1. BBC is AKU & device specific for certain carriers. As such BEFORE YOU INSTALL IT, open your registry editor & make the following change:
Navigate to HKLM/System/Version/AKU. Change the value of the AKU key to DWORD of 0.4.4
2. Use KaiserTweak & set your user agent string to your device. For me that is an AT&T Tilt, so mine gets changed from TYTN_II to HTC-8900.
3. Use Connection Settup to make sure device is provisioned for the correct connection, i.e Medianet...
4. Soft Reset Device.
5. Install BBC. After installed, go to setting, system, BBC. It will set everything up & soft reset device again automatically.
6. Make sure you have downloaded the BBC desktop software from here: http://www.america.htc.com/connect/Tilt
It must be installed on a PC connected to you work network, with access to your outlook & BIS server.
5. Open the BBC settings menu via the tray app tab on the today screen or via setting, system, bbc. Once open, select Utility, then push the "register with Network" button.
6. You should recieve a message in you "System" messaging box stating "The device has been registered with the network". Once you recieve this message, connect device to PC, Open the BBC setting again then go into your PC & open the BBC Desktop Connect software. Select "Configure my wireless device". Once done it will tell you provisioning was successful. Now you are done.
Otherwise you will have to ensure that you are setup & that IT has issued you a authentication password & do it using the Activation menu in the BBC app on your device. But it is much easier doing it from a networked PC with the desktop connect tool.
ALSO, make sure you installed BBC to your device. Do not install to SD Card.
Kaiser - Blackberry Connect Activation
HI,
I followed your instruction and then got everything working "apparently".
But noway to send nor to recieved over wireless.
I already wrote this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=417568
Is the registery modification mandatory on Kaiser ? is it specific to the operator
Can it be done now or I have to desinstall and reinstall BBC ?
Thanks a lot.

Newbe here trying to get my Tilt going. I HAVE searched and read the threads on ActiveSync for hours but can find no reference to this problem. I just installed ActiveSync 4.5 on my Windows XP Pro system. ActiveSync will connect and synchronize files ok. Clicking the Explore button in the ActiveSync window does nothing. After running ActiveSync, I can not open any file short cuts or open my C-drive from My computer. Basically, Windows Explorer will not run. I went to the Windows dir and tried to start Explorer.exe manually, no go. If I reboot, everything with Windows Explorer works ok until I start ActiveSync again. If I have Windows Explorer open when I start ActiveSync, I can browse the files on the Tilt fine, but once that Windows Explorer window is closed, Windows Explorer will not start again until I reboot. I have reinstalled ActiveSync twice and unchecked "Enable advanced network functions".
Im having the same problem!!!
I find that my going into task manager -> Processes and killing "explorer.exe" then selecting File -> Run and typing explorer.exe and clicking ok, that it restarts explorer.exe and enables me to carry on doing what i was doing, but it is a huge pain in the butt!!!
Sync Device with HTC
Hi everybody ,
Please tutorial to me , how can I Sync my device ( HTC shift ) to system,
i run this file in vista include shift ROMUpdateUtility.exe for Upgrade my Device
But i get this error --> Connection Error
Please Help Me -> How can I sync My device Or How Can I install
-> Install the EnableRapi.cab file from the zip on Snapvue side. (of course do unzip in Vista first.) How Can I Install This File in Vista
Sounds like you need to Liberate your shift first. Try looking at the major Shift Forum and read through the Liberating your Shift the Easy Way links. Please note, you will not be able to have 3G connectivity at the same time as the USB Tool link. The two do not play nice (for most people at least).
Once you have liberated your shift, the Vista side will treat the WinMo side like any other WinMo mobile device. Then just use Sync Centre (etc) to do the syncs.
Oh, and you will need to unclick the "Enable Advanced Network Functionality" check box on the WinMo side (in Settings, Connections, USB to PC), or else the WinMo and Vista sides will have an attack of the stupids!
So, has anyone been able (or even tried) to get something like this working yet?
Kaiser running GPSGate
Notebook running Google Earth
Use Kaiser as external GPS for Google Earth
Try as I might, I just can't get this to work. Google Earth just can't seem to recognize my Kaiser as a GPS device.
Thanx.
i have done this before over bluetooth (instructions were for xp but was no prob with vista). it uses GPS2Blue (free) http://users.skynet.be/hofinger/GPS2Blue.html
the site i used seems to have gone now but from the page i saved:
"Here is what i did:
On your PDA
1. Go to BT settings on your device and make it discoverable.
2. Go to COM Ports Tab and create a new incoming port (mine is COM6)
In GPS2Blue
3. set your GPS to 4 (this is your internal GPS port ..see under Start –> Settings–>GPS)
4. enable BT on and set it to the COM you created in step 2.
5. Press Button ON
On your PC
6. Open your Bluetooth settings… i used Microsoft not Widcomm
7. Add a new Device
8. Choose your PDA
9. When this is done click properties on your device and go to the TAB services.
10. Now it will find a serial Port (SPP) ‘Serial Port’ COM 8 (in my case) enable it and press OK.
11. Now go to the TAB Com Ports and press button ADD. Choose your device and choose the Serial port.Now you have connected COM port 8 on your PC to COM Port 6 on your device. The only thing you will have to do is choose COM Port 8 as your GPS port in your application."
hope that helps
Thanx for the instructions! Unfortunately, I've run into a bit of a snag. Following your instructions...
START > Settings > Bluetooth
Click "Mode" tab
Click "Turn on Bluetooth"
Click "Make this device visible..."
Click "COM Ports" tab
At this point, I have no option anywhere within my Bluetooth settings to "...create a new incoming port..." Even the instructions in the Bluetooth control panel state, "After pairing with a device, to set up a COM port tab New Outgoing Port." Unfortunately, that option is nowhere to be found. Could this be an issue with the phone ROM? Perhaps the developer left the functionality out by accident?
Thanx.
