BlueTooth manually updated on PDA2k to 1.5.081

http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=11729&highlight=widcomm
Since I didn't see in any thread about someone updating their PDA2k to the latest widcomm drivers... Just an FYI, I copied the files from the other thread onto my PDA2k. Seems to be working. Will test further to see if I'm still getting memory issues like before.
NOTE - I used Resco to copy the files over. There were several warnings that I was updating a file in ROM.. but I went ahead and did that anyway...figured I could hard reset the device if need be.
Still testing..but handsfree is a bit sporadic in terms of connecting.. still issues with the headset profile. Doesn't always connect. Turning on and off bluetooth seems to work better.. have not seen any driver memory issues(and that is turning on and off unit along wiht turning on and off wlan/bluetooth).
Quite a few times, I had to press the button on my HB-35 to connect the voice portion after it dialed. The PDA2k reports that it is connected to the HB-35, but doesn't seem to transfer the voice call over. After pressing the button on the HB-35, the voice transferred over... Will continute to play around with it...
Any update firbird and guest? What devices are you connecting to the PDA2K?
BT Headset, Model?
GPS, Model?
Car Kit, Model?
Keyboard, Model?
Wife, Model?
I want to control everything, yes, the dog included!
To clarify, I wanted to control the dog AND the wife, I didn't mean the wife was a dog!
Sorry.. been a bit busy lately... anyway.. as for an update.. I had more problems with the headset than with the previous 1.0 driver version... as for driver memory errors.. it seemed that I got them less frequent with the 1.5 driver.. but i still got it once in a while.. There's another thread in the forums here where I mentioned that it might not be entirely the driver but the way good old MS handles its memory allocation for drivers... the PDA2k isn't the only one with these issues.. the XDA IIs, the 6300 series.. even the older ipaqs.. the driver memory thing pops up all over the place where bluetooth is involved...
I had the xda II for 9 months and never saw the driver memory error msg, in fact it was perfect.
do it runs on pda2k ?¿?¿?¿
Thanks

Sync problems - Activesync does not detect device (XDAIIs)

Dear All
Please help: I have an O2 XDA IIs which MS Activesync 4.1 does not detect, despite all my efforts during the last few days (I also have an old iPAQ 1940 which Activesync detects fine).
The XDA is from work, so could it be that it is somehow locked, and if so, how can I unlock it?
Also, as an alternative, can I sync the XDA with my PC via Bluetooth through the iPAQ's?
Any ideas will be gratefully received!
Many thanks in advance,
L
Hi there,
I've Looked through hundreds of forums and although I have seem similiar I haven't found a resolution to my exact problem.
Due to the fact that I've been trying to resolve this issue on and off all day it's probably something really simple... :roll:
HISTORY
PDA
Was running WM2003SE on a Xda IIS.
PC
ActiveSync 3.8 on Laptop with Windows 2000 SP4 and all updates. Laptop on a home LAN with router. No firewall software and have since removed all Spyware removal software, (after doing one last scan).
My Task \ Issue \ Problem
I wanted to to the upgrade to WM2005 and followed all the usual procedures. The one mistake I may have made was to install the very very latest 4.1 Activesync without removing 3.8. However at this stage my XDA was still on 2003SE and synced perfectly with 4.1 Activesync.
I performed the upgrade to WM2005 including patches and as far as the XDA is concerned everything appears to be working.
Activesync however doesn't work. Via the USB cradle Windows 2000 detected a device and under device properties it's was listed as Generic RNDIS, it's now listed as a windows mobile based-device. I don't have an entry in my network connections, although I think this only happens with Windows XP. I've tried uninstalling Activesync, removing the rapi.dll file, reinstalling etc, I even did the former and removed entries within the registry and running a registry fixer but to no avail.
I then decided the Bluetooth route but cannot sync via this method either. I can actually succesfully connect from PC to XDA and vice versa but cannot use these connections for Activesync.
I have another Hard Drive for this Laptop which I use for testing. I can simply shut down, swap drives and boot again to another build. The other build is also Windows 2000 with SP4 and pretty much nothing else. I've installed Activesync 4.1 onto this machine, plugged in the cradle and everything works fine.
So..... I know the XDA is fine, The cradle's okay and Activesync 4.1 actually works with my XDA OS. The problem is it doesn't work on one particular build. I believe this is actually a Activesync issue but due to some form of conflict with my build. It's currently out of the question for me to rebuild so my mission is to find out what's conflicting.
Just to summarise though..... Activesync 4.1 was working fine, I upgraded XDA to WM2003 to WM2005 and then it stopped. The other harddisk proves that Activesync does actually work with my XDA.
Pheeeew...... I hope somebody doesn't suggest lack of information.... :lol: :lol:
So the reason for the post?? Well if anybody else is having frustrations, (which I'm sure I'm not the only one judging my my searching), your not alone.
I think a lot of people's problems have actually been resolved by the latest version of Activesync, (4.1), and other people have resolved by sorting out the main culprit of firewalls.
For me though I'll keep searching..... if any of you can think of any other ideas I can use for diagnosing the problem I'll appreciate it.
Thanks in advance..... sorry for the waffle.....
RESOLVED
Okay.... During further searching I noticed people mentioning VPN clients interfering.
I did have SecureRemote VPN installed which I use for work purposes.
I uninstalled SecureRemote but had to uninstall & re-install Activesync again. This time it's working.....
I will, (but not tonight), re-install the VPN client and see what happens. If Activesync countinues to work then, apart from being happy, it's worth making a note of.
If it doesn't work then I'll start to investigate why...... I know the new active sync does some form of IP connection but I cannot accept that it won't work with VPN's installed.
use windows XP (SP2) ...
first install the activesyn and then restart your computer.
then attach your pocket pc with usb cable.
and try to connect.
its works for me...

XDA Orbit disconnects W Lan!

I have an XDA Orbit and each time I sync it with my Sony Vaio S4XP it disconnects the W Lan which will not reconnect until I reboot the laptop. Anyone else had this problem as its now getting a bit monotonous
I've had this problem b4 and found the answer on these forums. The sames now happening again after flashing Meschle's new O2 Prem v2 Rom. I've tried a few different searches but now cab't see it.
I remeber I had to download something, I've tried reinstalling Active sync 4.5 but no good.
Its like connecting the orbit removes the wireless stuff on my laptop.
Ta in advance

Issues with X01HT Internet Sharing

I bought my Hermes a couple days ago, and of course the first thing I did was get rid of WM5 for WM6.
The system runs great and I can actually read English, unlike Kanji.
One exception to my high praise is Internet Sharing... the TyTn ROM I flashed the system with seemed to come with a broken sharing app... no big deal, I went on the internet and downloaded it, installed it, and proceeded to watch it not work. The app actually DOES launch now, but when you press the connect button, it quickly cycles on, then back off in the matter of about a second.
If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated.... I need tethered internet as soon as possible!
Thanks in advance.
Just a quick bump, anyone think they know why my internet sharing won't stay on?
Oh also, my phone tells me that it detected an unknown USB device attached to it and asks for the driver.. even when it's not connected to anything.
Problems with internet sharing
I also have problems with internet sharing on my Hermes (MDA Vario II) with WM6 Black Satin. Most of the times once I have disconnected from the internet and try to connect later it doesnt connect saying it can not connect due to some unknown reason. Only after a software reset does it begin to work again. Never had this problem on WM5 and have tried closing Activesync completely before reattempting a connection to no avail.
Anybody with an understanding of the problem or solution ?

Help...

Morning all.....
This may have been covered before, but as yet I can't find it...
I've just rebuilt my XDA Orbit, using the O2 WM6 Upgrade.... Most things seem to have worked seamlessly except for now I am unable to see anything in my Calendar on the Orbit.
ActiveSync tells me it is synchronising ok.....
The PC is running Office 2003 with ActiveSync 4.5.
Please tell me I can sort this easily - if not, I'm going back to WM5!
thanks
