Hi,
Like the subject says really. Can anyone please tell me how to send a file via Bluetooth (not a contact, just a normal type of file i.e. image or whatever). My Bluetooth File Transfer Service is enabled.
I've searched the forums, but can't find anything so I'm sure it's just me and I must be missing something blindly obvious?
Can someone please point me in the right direction?
Thanks!
Whoops that was from me if anyone wants to know who's being stupid :-(
File Explorer -> Click and Hold on file you want to send -> Select "Beam File" and then wait for the list of Bluetooth Devices to appear below the Infrared Section.
Alternatively use Resco File Explorer which has a specific Beam via Bluetooth option and (to me) seems quicker and more reliable (At least to startup).
Erm nope?
"Beam" via File Explorer makes no effort to open a Bluetooth connection (I've got a wireless video sender next to me and everything anything tries to do ANYTHING with Bluetooth it interferes like crazy with the picture)
Also tried Resco and that only has a "Send via Infrared" option. I see no Bluetooth option :-(
This is with an O2 XDA IIs running their software :-( (Although no O2 customisations)
I have GOT to sort my cookies out. Yes above was me again... I think that's 3 posts today I've done as a guest. DOH :-(
Then I'm at a loss as I can do it with both!
I am using Resco v5.12 and the menu item is under Send To > Bluetooth Recipient... if that is of any help.
That's freaky. I see you're not using the standard O2 rom's though. Perhaps something to do with that. I just backed up, did a hard reset and tried again, but still no joy :-(
Is "cooking" my ROM hard/bad? I've seen all the files/documentation on WIKI etc, but mostly just worried about WHICH I should install on it :-(
--Neil
Could be, can't remember now, had so many variants of CE Rom and Ext ROM I have lost track!
We have spent a long time putting together a "Wiki" for the Blue Angel for upgrades etc and I have had no problems yet (I would say it has improved the responsiveness of my device and I no longer have any real issues with Bluetooth, audio or WiFi).
Have a play, you can always go back.
To send a file via bluetooth on Blueangel, first you have to turn on your BT
then open the Bt manager > press on new > choose "Browse files on a remote device > select "All devices"> The BT scan for the online Bt devices> Select lets say "Nokia 7650"> press next >now discovering the device>pair it>a window will appear showing you the files> select the file you want, et voila... :wink:
I also had the problem of not having any option to send files via bluetooth when using the inbuilt file explorer. Consequently, I installed the trial version of Resco Explorer. After using it for a day, I uninstalled it. Imagine my surprise that when I now open my inbuilt File Explorer, I get the option for Send via Bluetooth. I don't know if it's related to Resco or not, but it's worth a try? Just install the Resco Trial Version to ur PDA2K and then uninstall it.
The answer is in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=17976&highlight=
I tried several times but I cannot sync my new XDA Orbit via Bluetooh. ActiveSync does not find my device although I did it the help-file told (choose the right COM-port). Could the reason be that I am using the WIDCOMM BT driver instead of the pre-installed standard Win XP-driver?
Same problem
Hi all. A have the samу problem with connection activesybc via bluetooth. When a want o connect my device say me that is no partnership to connect. What a reason. No posts about this a find
P.S. Sorry for my bad english

Hi.
May I know where you got your Widcomm BT stack for the Artemis?
Thanks
no. my artemis has a standard build in bluetooth drivers but for the first time i had aproblem whit them
I had this problem trying to sync with my Dell PC using its built in bluetooth hardware and the Widcomm stack. No luck at first, but I solved it by uninstalling the Widcomm stack in device manager, then allowing XP to re-discover the hardware and to install the alternative Microsoft stack. (XP SP2 only).
With XP handling the bluetooth, I had no problem pairing with the Artemis using instructions from here - http://www.geekzone.co.nz/content.asp?contentid=3163 .
Syncing is now straightforward.

Okay, I've scanned the entire website and visited your links, I still cannot set up a bluetooth partnership with my P3300 and my laptop.
I'm using D-link DBT-122.. and it just doesnt connect.
What am I missing?
No one has any ideas?
Had to bump it because its frustrating to not be able to sync via bluetooth.
Anyone wid ANY ideas whatsoever?
I just managed to advance a bit on this path:
Thanx to a Hazymat over on xda-dev I managed to get it all working, his guide, for anyone else finding this:-
1) On your computer, go into bluetooth settings. Check bluetooth is ON and set to discoverable. Add an incoming COM port, eg. COM5.
2) On ActiveSync on your computer, go into connection settings. Tick all the boxes. If the COM port is greyed out, untick it, close the settings box, go back in, now tick it and set the COM port to eg. COM5.
3) On the K Jam go into bluetooth settings, and remove the connection to your computer.
4) On your K Jam go into ActiveSync, click 'menu' > 'connect via bluetooth' then you should see a message saying 'cannot find an existing bluetooth partnership with a PC that supports ActiveSync. Would you like to set up a partnership now?'
5) Click YES - you are taken to the Bluetooth settings screen.
6) Now click 'new partnership. As soon as you do this, the K Jam will search, and as long as your computer has bluetooth discoverable turned on, your computer will eventually be displayed. Check the computer name showing on the K Jam is the same as the name you gave the bluetooth profile on your computer.
7) On K Jam, click your computer name then NEXT.
Now enter a passcode - any four digit number (remember it) then next
9) When you do this, your computer will pop up with a message saying "a bluetooth device is requesting authorisation". Open this message and type in the code that you gave the K Jam. The next screen on the computer will tell you that it was successful - click FINISH.
10) Back on the K Jam, the screen will now be showing the services available. AS LONG AS YOU FOLLOWED STEP 1 and 2, ActiveSync will be an option, and you need to tick this and press FINISH on the K Jam.
11) Close bluetooth settings, now in ActiveSync screen click MENU > Connect via bluetooth. Your ActiveSync program on the computer should eventually pop up and connect.
The only port you worry about is the incoming pc one. Active Synch does the rest. You must see acitivesync as a service when you connect. I did not see it until I updated my Toshiba Bluetooth stack from thier website. Creating other ports can stop the synch from working.

(http://discussion.treocentral.com/wm-synchronization/104553-bluetooth-activesync.html)
The PC has an adapter managed by Widcomm stack (5.5.0.3200, latest so far). Only the "ActiveSync" service is set up as "Automatic", therefore immediately available. ActiveSync is version 4.5.
I do everything anew as instructed, my Hermes sees only the "ActiveSync" remote service. Sometimes it may stubbornly offer the "Serial Port" instead but after a few retries (yes, everything anew!) the correct service is seen. So far so good.
Then I create an outgoing port with same name as on PC. COM5 is apparently optimal at both sides. The PDA begins synchronization, the "Connected" sound is heard from PC... and almost immediately is followed by the "Disconnected" sound. The PDA additionally explains: "port is not available".
If I now refresh services visible via this partnership, the "ActiveSync" is replaced by "Wireless Stereo", "Serial Port" (checked), "Dialup Networking" and "Headset". This is a dead end. The stack on the PC somehow remembers this state and the correct choice of services won't be available anymore.
From now on I can do everything anew repeatedly, and if succeeded, all I get is that quick disconnection.
After installing the older v5.1.0.5600 stack the behaviour changed a bit. Instead of connecting/disconnecting an error message appears: "Synchronization cannot be completed successfully". Reinstalled the newer one, the appropriate behaviour returned.
Had no luck with the M$ stack altogether. The laptop manufacturer doesn't offer the Q323183 separately. Even if it is already included in SP2, I still must provide the kernel-mode drivers. The older Widcomm stack has them in a separate directory but they fail to install. Moreover I read somewhere that the M$ stack allegedly supports ActiveSync at a cost of absent RFCOMM support, and the latter is of paramount importance for me. Perhaps I'm destined to use cable (no problems with it).
Someone at experts-exchange.com states:
There are 2 major issues with activesync 4.x
1 - You cannot sync wirelessly
2 - You cannot sync via cable/cradle when the wifi card is active. If you are connected to a wireless network I would suggest you delete the connection and then try re-syncing.
If you do not need the latest version I would suggest you rollback to version 3.8 unless the above limitations dont affect you or you absolutely need the latest version.

If that only were an official M$ statement... And regarding older ActiveSync versions, those didn't work at all for me, as far as I remember.
Hi all,
i am runing my trinity with WM6 and AX3l's rom. my issue is that i cant connect to my car stereo which is a pioneer DEH-P55. My trinity see's the stereo and gives the option for hands free but the stereo cant detect the trinity. my device is visible to others but the stereo wont pick it up. Any suggestions for a fix on this would be appreciated.
thanks
corm
maybe you have to push a button on your radio to activate first time pairing, that was the solution for my bluetooth headset.
(pairing from both sides)
just a suggestion, maybe it helps.
Try the Jetware bluetooth extension it has a 30 day trial and worked for my Alpine headunit its at http://www.jetwaremobile.com/
Thanks for the replies, but still no luck. I can pair other phones to the stereo but not this. Are there any settings that i may need to activate on the device that i am missing? its abit infuriating as i need to get this up and running as soon as.

activated "receive all incoming beams" ? its in settings/connections/beam
its already activated stormyb but thanks again for helping.
I always had problems using bt and irda...
I never succeed send/receive any file using my pc (my pc irda always worked fine with others devices). Beam enabled on commManager and on settings "receive all incoming beams".
When I try to connect (pair) using (htc) BT I get this error: the connection failed or the passcode is incorrect...
---
One time I tried to send a file to a nokia phone and I needed 30 min to succeed: restart phone, restart BT, restart beam, restart phone, restart nokia, restart BT, restart, restart, ....
Now I'm using the radio 1.46.00.11, rom eLiAs2.11wwe (before I was radio 1.38 and udk rom) and when I pair from htc, on pc I don't receive the pin request. If I pair from pc, I see the request for pin no htc but when I type it: "the connection failed or the passcode is incorrect".
Only one time I was succeed pair (and saved on device list), I typed 3 times the pin code, but after I can't transfer files...
From pc, I see the htc on the device list, if I try the ftp service, htc ask me: "xxx wants to connect with your device using bluetooth. Do you want to add XXX to your device list?" I answer yes but when I insert the pin, the pc give to me this error: "error establishing the connection"
If i try the voice gateway, after type the pin on htc I get this error on pc:
"the remote device closed the connection"
Using this last rom, when I try beam a file, I can't see my pc irda (using the udk rom I can to see but without success), I only see my pc BT but always "failed" the connection.
Nobody has the same problem?!
What bluetooth comms are you using, windows or Widcomm's?
I installed widcomm onto my laptop as I was suffering the same problems as you mention and I couild not get a bluetooth serial port setup either, once installed and restarted the pc then I just powered up both BT's and set the phone to visable and the laptop found it straight away with all the services and could setup the serial port.
I seem to recall there are numerous problems with most BT's when using the default windows drivers etc..
HTH's
hi, I'm using widcomm...
I didn't test again a bt headphone, but I have problems trying to connect to a nokia phone for example (n95, n73).
The irda never works... I tried too with a nokia phone and a remote control software for wm6... nothing...
All ok using headset BT...
I installed blueSoleil BT driver and now it is ok.
same ppc, same rom, same problem with my bt bury in the car and with other ppl's triyng to bt connect to my ppc. i can "see" them they can "see" me but there is no transmission TO me. I can send.
i am using the bt phone (bury) but onlt when I initiate the connection. i think it's a rom bug.
Bear with me......
I have WM6 running, but when I connect to my laptop via BT it says there is only the Serial connection available, now I am being thick? As I cannt get the laptop to send things via BT OR the phone to recieve via BT, by things I mean photo's and vid clips etc etc, but always fails.
I have paired them repeatedly and deleted connections and made connections and everything.
So I am at a loss, am I missing somthing obvious or is it more problematical? I guess it could even be the XP BT stack, but thats next on the list to check.
Hints, tips and advice as ever greatfully received
Deech
Hi, sounds like a very annoying problem, i can only think of 2 things:
1. make sure that 'recive all beams' is ticked on your PDA, this sets the location etc for when you recive files in bluetooth i think.
2. uninstall your bluetooth in XP and reinstall it to another USB port.
I hope this helps, i cant think of much else to help
ummm.... 'receive all beams' would be infrared.. not bluetooth
install schap's advance config tool (should find it under the cab collection thread) and there's an option to enable OBEX file transfer. After you do that on your trinity and soft reset, you should be able to send/receive files
Thanks will do.
I wonder if I should upgrade the software too? I have MinRus's original WM6 onboard atm, or perhaps it's LVS's..... I really ought to pay attention, and now I see that there are loads of "newer" ones out and about.........
/me goes to ferret around the fora
"ummm.... 'receive all beams' would be infrared.. not bluetooth"
no it's both
that's what i thought too, its for both.
when i send a file it's : "beam file" you see your infrared and bluetooth connections.
and maybe this: visible for others in bluetooth options? will help ?
check the same for your laptop maybe...
I have been trying all weekend to Sync my 8525 and my HP laptop via Bluetooth and it will not work! They are both paired and I can do just about everything with them both but sync with ActiveSync. I can use the phone as a modem, transfer files, use the laptop as an external stereo speaker and as a speaker phone but it will not sync with freakin' Activesync! Both the Laptop and the 8525 serial ports are set at Com8. When attempting to sync via bluetooth on the phones active sync all I get is:
"Cannot connect using Bluetooth to a PC that supports ActiveSync. You may be out of range. Would you like to create a Bluetooth partnership with a different PC?"
Oh my LORD!! This is becoming soooo anoying! I have tried searching here and through Google, I have tried just about everything to get this crap to work and so far NOTHING!!!!
I am at wits end! Please if you can help it would save my sanity!
-Cingular 8525
-Windows Mobile 6 Professional (OEM Rom downloaded from HTC website)
-Rom version 3.62.502.3
-Radio version 1.54.07.00
Thank You!

Looks wrong to me, as PDA's COM8 is not laptop's COM8. I suggest you delete all the serial ports, and delete the partnership itself on both PDA and laptop. Then let ActiveSync establish it back as it wants.

I have tried that before, and it still gave me the same message when trying
to sync. The laptop usually sets the com port to 8 and the phone sets the com port to 0, however this does not seem to sync. I will try it again tonight to see if maybe I missed something. Thank you for your suggestion.
If anyone else has any ideas I would love to try them.
Thank You!
For what it's worth, I'm able to sync my 8525 via Bluetooth ActiveSync with my Windows XP Professional notebook. It took a little finegaling, but I was able to make it happen. Unfortunately, the notebook is at home, and the phone is not allowed into my office. If you don't get it resolved by this evening, I'll try to post my settings after I get home.

So......Huston we still have a problem. Deleting the two devices and repairing did not seem to correct the issue.
Hmmm. I have experienced this before, and have fixed it....somehow. Sorry. I have a Dell laptop (yeah ok, wotever!). Established activesync partnership via usb to start. Told phone to find new BT gear, paired with laptop, ticked every box that the laptop presented, including 'allow device to access activesync service'. In BT settings, laptop has activesync box ticked in list of services available. To connect, I go into comm manager, turn on activesync, menu, connect via bluetooth. All sweet. Running WM6.1, had it working on most of the WM6 roms too.
what bluetooth stack are you using on you laptop?
Umm.. would that be 'WIDCOMM Bluetooth Software 5.0.1.2609'? Dunno - whatever is installed on the Dell Inspiron 6400. Would be happy to provide any further info, if you can tell me exactly what it is you want and where I find it....

Dude thank you! I will try that as soon as I get home!
I have it working on my desktop PC in front of me. Here's my setup:
PC:
IVT BlueSoleil v5 I think (the one that costs money but has a new slick interface)
Device Name: PokerPro
Device Type: Desktop
Accessibility: Allow other Bluetooth devices to find this device, Allow other Bluetooth devices to connect to this device
Services: Bluetooth Serial Port (COM4), Bluetooth Serial Port (COM5), Bluetooth Advanced Audio, Bluetooth Object Push, Bluetooth File Transfer, Bluetooth Personal Area Network. All have Security On (i.e. a secure connection).
Serial Ports: COM4: Direction Incoming. COM5: Direction Incoming.
Microsoft ActiveSync:
Connection Settings:
Allow USB connections
Allow connections to one of the following: COM4
This computer is connected to: Automatic
Open ActiveSync when device connects
I >don't< have "Allow wireless connection on device when connected to the desktop" set.
On my Phone:
Running WM6 (Windows CE 5.2.1933) (note not WM6.1) and Schap's 4.01 full rom
Bluetooth device name: "Dir Someone" (my name). I don't have OBEX enabled.
Within the Bluetooth settings:
PokerPro shows up as a device. If I select it, it shows Wireless Stereo (not ticked) and ActiveSync (ticked). This is the important bit - ActiveSync needs to show up as a service under your PC paired connection.
Mode: Turn On Bluetooth is ticked, but "Make device visible to other devices" is not ticked.
COM Ports: I don't have anything there aside from "New Outgoing Port".
FTP: Enable Bluetooth Explorer is ticked
Security: Authentication (Passkey) required is not ticked.
ActiveSync: I have "Synchronise all PCs using this connection" ticked, with the default " 'USB " selected.
When I select "Connect via Bluetooth", I get a message on my desktop saying the phone has connected, and ActiveSync turns green and starts spinning.
If I recall correctly, it took me a couple of goes before the ActiveSync service appeared under the PC paired connection (the bit in italics above). I don't recall how I got that working but it was just a matter of deleting the connection and letting them discover each other again I think.
I did a bunch of research and found a few articles that I read at the time, but because I'm using BlueSoleil it was slightly different for my setup. But you can get the general idea of what you need to do here.
Check My post here, it is on the butoom of the page!!

10) Close bluetooth settings, now in ActiveSync screen click MENU > Connect via bluetooth. Your ActiveSync program on the computer should eventually pop up and connect.
The only port you worry about is the incoming pc one. Active Synch does the rest. You must see acitivesync as a service when you connect. I did not see it until I updated my Toshiba Bluetooth stack from thier website. Creating other ports can stop the synch from working.
