Hi,
as plugging and unplugging the USB-connector for installing all these exciting new features and apps from this forum is very time consuming, I tried to install a FTP-Server on the Diamond to preserve the USB connector.
I tried all FTPServers I could find with google (commercial and non-commercial ones), but all failed at some point. Of course, a FTP-Server only really makes sense, when you are able to connect local via WLAN, Bluetooth or USB. I tried WLAN to no avail.
Some of the programs tested:
Freefloat
SareIt
Mochasoft
PE Ftp Server 1.9
vxFtpSrv
Has anyone a working solution? Is this a problem of WM6.1 or the TouchFlo Interface ?
Magnus
Try using Resco Explorer - then if you have Wi-Fi use the My Network to map a shared drive. I have it setup so it looks at My Documnets on my PC so I can then copy the files into a drive on the phone.

elaborate on the network structure. does your phone have a unique and direct(!!!) IP addrress OR are you trying to access it strictly from your LAN?
also, you might want to read my networking-related articles. in them, I've explained a LOT of Windows Mobile networking secrets.

The phone connects to an AP which does nothing but bridging into a local LAN segment. To that segment my computer is connected. The phone gets a static IP-Address via DHCP. WLAN connections are confirmed to work for outgoing SMTP and HTTP. If I remember it correctly, the Mochasoft FTP-Server seemed to be up and running, but was only listening to the IP-Address from my phone provider although WLAN was active when the application started.

Thanks, I will give them a try. I already guessed that Microsoft networking will have some quirks.

In the mean time bluetooth ftp works pretty well too.

So, you want to access the FTP server from the outside (out of the LAN)?
You install a FTP server on your PC then a FTP client on the TD. From phone, you launch the FTP client and access the the server on your PC. Then you can you download/upload the file via Wifi.
Try google free ftp client for ppc. You can find the some. However I did try a couple of them. None of the free one seems to be easy to use as the PC version. Thus I would rather stick with the sync cable

No, inside the lan. Same segment, only with a switch inbetween, IP-adresses from the same network and size. So most basic setup you can think off.
@unidisk: I know I can use the mobile as a FTP-Client. But it is much easier to have the server on the device, as using a FTP-Client on your computer is much more userfriendly and much faster.
@All: So no one has a working FTP-Server Software for the Diamond? I really can't believe this!?
Magnus
I just tried it, first on my Athena and then on my Touch Diamond.
Within about 15 minutes I had FTP servers set up and running on both devices
I used this setup:
Linksys router (with OpenWRT) giving out adresses via DHCP.
PC with XP sp 2 connected via LAN.
Athena (with cooked WM 6.1) connected via WLAN.
Touch Diamond (with cooked WM 6.1) connected via WLAN.
I tried ShareItFTP and vxFtpSrv on both PPC devices. Both programs worked flawlessly for anonymous login from my PC.

hi, i have my diamond connected to my wi-fi router and it surfs ok (if a little slow). from the pc i tried adding a wireless device to my network (currently just my router and pc) but it wouldnt find the diamond. should i be able to see the diamond from the pc? i just want to transfer files between the two. ps the pc has vista and is connected by ethernet to the wireless router.
thanks, kristian
There might be an easier (native) way, but I use Resco Explorer 2008 on the Diamond - it can see SMB/Samba shares hence allowing me to access my network fileshares. As the Diamond is the client it needs to do all the work (i.e. I cannot browse the Diamond from my other machines).
Mathew
Is this possible? If so how?
I would like the Diamond to use the internet connection of the desktop computer (cheaper) - and they see each other via bluetooth but it seems they both want to be "network access point"
Can you get the diamond to shut up and listen instead of thinking it is supposed to be the boss?
I actually discovered this today
If you connect with activesync via bluetooth, the phone uses the computers internet access...
well mine does... I don't know if this is standard, I just discovered it by accident
Damn, then I have to install activesync...
But thanks for the tip.
Well didn't work here. Must be some fluke on your system perhaps?

I've done this quite often, it's no fluke at all. Whenever I connect my phone to ActiveSync (or WMDC as I use Vista) via USB or bluetooth, it is able to use the internet connection from my PC.

you need to check active sync or windows mobile center(vista) options to enable data through
hmmm, that's strange ...
I'm testing it right now ... opening Opera, and there is the internet!
And I'm sure Its thrue bluetooth because my wifi router isn't connected
And when I disconnect activesync, no more internet...
Someone else that can check that?

Yes you can connect to internet through active sync or windows mobile device center by bluetooth, even if you rnt using microsoft bluetooth stack.

Though just for knowledge, I'd like to know how to connect through bluetooth as well - any HTC relevant guides about that?
Have you looked into bluetooth PAN?
Some info here.
Or install a http server on the PC and set up a web proxy (PHP or cgi, etc), then browse through that..
I havnt tried either of these but its something to look into..

There's really no point in doing that considering ActiveSync/WMDC shares the connection when you connect, all you have to do is pair your phone with your PC then go into ActiveSync on the phone and select Connect via BlueTooth.
Was just throwing it out there for us non-windows users. I keep a dedicated VM for flashing, but avoid using it whenever I can.

So you have to have activesync installed as well to use Bluetooth - damn a lot of junk - but thanks for the tip
hey guys i connected my HTC touch diamond to my windows xp SP3 laptop. but for some reason internet is not working. if i try to use internet it says it is unable to connect on my touch. i had checked the option in quickgps that it should update whenever i connect to activesync but that cannot be used as long as there is no internet through activesync.
can anybody help

Hello
How to connect with activesync via bluetooth to use internet from the PC..I'm really like this..Thks!
Hi there,
I got a car-pc since a while and have been using my sony ericsson with it... calls get transferred via bluetooth to the computer, as like phonebook in integrated into the car-pc software... all transmitted via bluetooth...
Now with the diamond, how do i set it up as a phone? winXP doesnt recognize other services than the moden funxtion
you should enable Remote SIM access on you Diamond: Start -settings - connections bluetooth SIM acces and also activate the service for your BT connection (do this in the first tab of the BT settings dialogue after connectig)
already done :-( But the Computer doesn't list other functions than modem for the HTC
Do i need any drivers for XP? Usually not...
Using Diamond & CarPC Via Internet sharing over BT
I have a CarPC in my car, it has a 7" touch screen & it is running WinXP and have built in Bluetooth. So for surfing in the internet , MSN, Skype in my car over the carpc i am using my HTC Diamond with the Internet Sharing icon and connecting it via Bluetooth to the carPC so i get FAST Internet over Bluetooth between my carpc and my HTC Diamond.
It works very good - very stable.
Matter of fact it is "capturing" my 3G Internet and pass it over Bluetooth to the carpc.
Solution works very well.
k, but i am not interested in using it as internet connection, i want to phone via the computers hardware, so the car-pc should act as an headset... besides that, he shoult be able to access the adress book and to begin calls... that for, i neeed 2 comports emulated, but how to create them?
could it be because the device is seen as a PDA, and not as a mobile phone?
I know somewhere here on XDA there is a reg hack for earlier devices to make them appear as a mobile phone to car kits. maybe the same thing will help here. I don't know where it is, can only suggest searching, unless anyone else can point you in the right direction....
I used to have PhoneConnector on my CarPC, with PhocoAdapter on the phone. It worked, but now this software is not supported anymore and unfortunately it does not work with WM6.
Freefone is not compatible either.
My good Blackbaron, I believe we users of CarPCs and Windows Mobile are scr...d!
By the way, sharing the 3G connection workds a treat, by USB, BT, Wifi... I just wish Vodafone would allow other ports than port 80
I still didnt realize what 3G is... ^^ I never owned a ppc before...
Well, on the CarPC the internet speed is as great as a DSL line, here is France I measured it at more than 3.5 MB/s (KS20 is limited to 4 MB/s with HSDPA, who knows why). Coming from the crappy Edge Motorola phone I had before, the browsing is truly amazingly fast!

1) Launch the Internet Sharing application on your phone (all WM6 phones have it)
2) Select your 3G connection, and BT or USB, tap "Connect"
3) USB: have ActiveSync installed on the PC, connect the USB cable, it's done.
4) BT: you have to set up a BT PAN hosted from your phone, add your PC to it, it's done.
5) If your provider uses a proxy, setup Firefox to use it (Tools/Options/Advanced/Network)
6) If your provider has a filter on User Agent, then you need the plug-in "User Agent Switcher", to put the same User Agent string as on your phone.
There you go!

hi,
Is it possible to share my desktop computer's LAN internet connection to my phone?(via bluetooth?)
I already have a bluetooth dongle for my pc and I have a personal area network under network connections..
Remember, I need to *send* internet from my desktop to the phone, not the other way around.
Also, I have a separate laptop without an internet connection but 802.11 b/g WLAN, can I connect to the diamond to share files wirelessly?
Thanks so much
you can share internet TO your Diamond using activesync, and if you have a infinate amount of patience, in theory you can connect Activesync via Bluetooth (its in the options, and microshaft says it works, but i have tried with 4 different PPCs, and never have made it work).
As for the file sharing, you would need to set up a VPN (Virtual Private Network) which i have no idea how to do
Interesting, I'll try that.
But is'nt there a way I can make a network adapter for my diamonds bluetooth and then have it accept the personal network connection on my desktop?
It seems this feat is possible with symbian phones and an app called gnubox which *takes* internet from a computer via bluetooth.
Thanks so much.
yes they call it PAN
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=InternetOverBluetoothNetwork
the instructions on that page is wrong.
Theres no Network cards under Settings>Connections!
hey, the active sync sharing works! =P I'm quite happy with it!!!
Btw, you can also try connecting activesync via bluetooth with shared internet. Seems to work ok for browsing but not for WL messenger.
Also, Wifi network is way more easier to setup.
Ok I have been trying to use my pc connection and access that connection through my bluetooth on my kaiser, most I can get is the other way around. Any suggestions
Not sure that Internet Connection sharing in WinMo supports that...just wondering, why the heck would you want to surf the web on a 2.8" screen when you have a full PC available to you?
You can use the remote desktop facility via wifi. But as previously posted... why?! Bluetooth doesn't support a high enough datarate for it to work properly.
Connection at my location is 3G at best so bluetooth is defininitaly fast enough to accomidate my needs just simple stuff.

The best way to get the connection on your kaiser throught the pc is when you connect it using the USB and being connected to the active sync on your pc besides there are no settings need to be made for using this way. I'm not sure if you can connect the kaiser to you active sync on the pc through the bluetooth.anyway let me try it and if anything pops up, i'll let you know
Nope, no additional software required. Just go into Start - Programs - Internet Sharing. Hit connect and connect up your USB cable and you're done.
_Wait for ActiveSync to connect and then exit the programme._________________
Max confusion
What a jumble this thread has become . The O/P wanted to access the internet that's already on his PC and channel that through his TyTN II - NOT the other way around. As already mentioned in one post, one way of getting this is via an Activesync (or WMDC if it's Vista or Win 7 on the PC) connection. For greatest speed this would be via the USB cable but it is possible to have an Activesync or WMDC connection via Bluetooth for greater mobility if there's a need to carry the phone up to 10 m from the bluetooth hub. The other (more straight forward) way to do this is just to connect the phone via WiFi directly to the landline/broadband router (assuming there is a WiFi capable router avail).
Internet connection sharing is only for when the phones internet connection eg GSM/3G or HSDPA is feed to a desktop PC (say if the landline/broadband connection is down). In the O/Ps second post, the reference to Bluetooth speeds made it look like this was what was being saught.
I have done all of these with my TyTN II and had things working well in each case.
