Hi all, I have a Bluetooth Car Stereo (A2DP) and to connect it is rather laborious with WM6 as you have to get into the Settings>Connections>Bluetooth screen, right-click the device, and 'Set as Wireless Stereo' every time!
I have not found a way to create a shortcut icon that will directly load the Bluetooth page. Can anyone help show me how? I assume it is a rundll command but am not sure how to do it.

works a treat , only thing i had to do was re pair my headset for it to work .
Great thanks!
I just bought a Touch Diamond -very nice phone with a couple exceptions.
Touchflo 3d is nice but Im finding it doesnt have much depth - it needs more functions. And the loudspeaker is not very good - not loud, not clear.
Anyways, its my first windows mobile phone and had a couple questions about what WM6.1 can do. Im using Vista btw.
1. Email - Im downloading ALL my email and its fairly big. Can I force it to save only to internal storage?
2. Music - How do you get the album photo to come up while playing through Touchflo music - the picture does come up if i just play in windows media player.
3. Is it possible to add/remove multiple contacts from the People Menu ie Favourite contact
4. Most important - connectivity. Is it possible to access the phone wirelessly from PC via router? The phone connects to the router wirelessly fine and I can use the internet. But what I want to be able to do is either access the internal storage or sync up with outlook without using the usb cable.
5. What kind of BASIC phone functions does it have?
Eg. Call timer during call
Stop it going to that call history page after a call - i want it to go straight back to home.
Theres more functions it seems to be missing....
6. How do you make it so it FULLY shuts down a program when u hit the top right close button? I dont want to have to keep re-hitting the top right button to open task manager and full close it that way.
7. Lastly, is there any secret tips that a newbie wouldnt know about eg. codes to get to secret menus etc?
1. I don't think so, but I don't download email, so somebody who does may be able to help.
2. Strange problem, probably to do with the version of ID3 tags each uses. But again I have no idea how to solve it
3. No idea with no device in hand
4. Microsoft, being twats, reoved sync via Wi-Fi with the upgrade to WM2003. So, sorry mate, no way that I know
5. My dialer on my other PPC has call timer I think, but the diamond's may not, a new dialer with it included may solve the problem.
Other stuff missing?
6. Get a proper x button, like WKTask, or Wisbar, or something similar. Its also probably possible to change the settings to make it close by tapping X. I also think that with the HTC program, you can close by tap and hold, or, from today, click where the x should be, and a menu comes up enabling you to close them individually.
7. Secret codes? Not that I know of.
Hope the small things I have known here do help

Yeah, 6 is definitely something that can be done in the standard Windows Mobile settings (unless they've removed the setting in 6.1, in which case a registry edit might do it).
I guess when the phone has been out for a while, a lot of registry tweaks and utils will show up around here to adress all kinds of small and big issues.
i was gona go for a diamond but look at htc touch pro. everything diamond plus hardware keyboard and memory expansion slot (minus front camera).
Found how to fully close the progam in one go - went to task manager - button - and chose "End Programs by tapping X"
Under this option is "End programs by tapping and holding X" which is the default.
I tried it and it does work but I dont like it. Coz u cant really tell how long to hold it. If u keep holding, the program actually just stays open until u release. And I guess if u release too early it wont fully close.
Anyways - thats not a huge issue - wireless sync is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Has anyone found a way to get around it?
Best you can do with WIFI is put the UNC name of your pc into the browser and bring up the shares.
If you want to sync wirelessly, you'll have to do it via bluetooth. You should be able to get a bluetooth dongle for your pc for about 20 bucks though.
OH YEAH!!!!!!!! Going through Opera to browse my PC directory - You little beauty!!!
Now, how do I set up a name for the diamond so I can see it on my PC. Is there a setting you have to enable? I browse for "PCs" and it doesnt find the diamond - just my other PCs
I had my phone in my pocket when i ran into a counter and cracked my screen and now it looks like a acid trip. I once saw a program that allowed you to control your phone from your pc via usb cable. Any suggestions. Sorry if this is the wrong place for this thread but i am looking for software. Thanks for any input.
Remote Control Software
My Moblier, found at http://www.mymobiler.com/, should do the trick. It lets you view your screen output on your desktop moniter and uses your keyboard and mouse. It's also free and I've heard great things about it. Select the PC install on the website, download it, and run the program. It should work through active sync.

See this recent thread for the best answer to your question, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=435259
I've been trying to find some software that will let me remote onto my phone (in the same way that Mymobiler does - over USB). But i can't seem to find anything!
All my search results come up with how to remote desktop FROM your phone, but I want to to it the other way round!
Does any software even exist?
Would installing ActiveSync 3.8 work with mymobiler (seeing as it should let me sync over WiFi?)
Thanks!

Works both ways, i.e access PC from the mobile (well done and convenient) or the opposite, over any network you want.
Pocket Controller
Cool, thanks guys
Pocket Controller does the job nicely - with lots of extra functionality to boot
This is what I use. And it's free to boot.

(sorry I did not see that you said you already tried this)
Seeing as how nobody could help me with the below, how do I capture what process is started/ran when I click on my desired button. Perhaps I can make a custom macro/program that will do what I desire.

My phone is having issues syncing with my car radio. It only works if I disable and re-enable the gps every time I get in the car. Very annoying.
I discovered that if I just leave BT on, then goto my BT settings(menu->settings->Wireless&Networks->Bluetooth settings->long press my device->options-connect) and connect to my desired device that way it connect much quicker.
This solution is livable, just trying to figure out how to create shortcut icon on desktop of those actions.
Any idea?
Ok, lets try changing the query to see if I can get some help on this.
Use AnyCut from the Market to make direct shortcut.
