- Copy the file EnableCharPin.exe to you PDA
- Start the bonding dialog until you get the password screen
- Now launch the explorer and start the executable (you will get a small message)
- Get back to the password screen (if you don't find it click on the BT icon in the today screen)
- Characters are now enabled

i need your help with the bt patch
Hi,
I have downloaded the file from
http://www.angeltowns.com/town/bluetooth/EnableCharPin.zip
and looked for the exe file, to run in my xda2.
The exe is a PC installer (didn't work in my xda - not a valid win32 app...)
I finished the installtion process, and now in my add / remove programs i have "Bluetooth Character Password Enabler".
But when i'm trying to bond with my Navman,
still only numbers can be entered. :roll:
Any idea?
(maybe someone have the EXE to run on my ppc, not the installer?)
Thanks in advance,
Tomer
This is a bit unclear, I used towa´s patch like said earlier, followed exactly the instructions and could enable the charpin, and enable my navman
just download and COPY the patch to your xda true activ sync or whatever, and the start the bonding procedure, and when the screen for the pasword comes up, you lanch the explorer on your xda look for the charenable pin, click on it, it will give the message charpin now enabled, close the explorer and type in NAVMAN in big font, and it works perfect.
let us know if you got it to work
Thanks for you quick response.
I tried to do the process as explained:
copyed the file EnableCharPin.exe into my ppc
(via active sync), turned on my navman,
start BT, look for devices, found the navman gps one, next,
and now when the password screen appears i went to "my documents", clicked on the file, and than the error message 'EnableCharPin' is not a valid Pocket PC application" appears.
Any idea?
I saw a post in the forum about registry key or hack, to enable it,
whithout further information.
Thanks,
Tomer
Problem with EnableCharPin
The work that has gone into tying to solve the issue is impressive.
Unfortunately I have the same experience with the response 'EnableCharPin' is not a valid Pocket PC application'
Does anyone have a way to accomplish inputting alpha characters via changes in the registry?

I have NAVMAN GPS and have the same error. Can anyone explain how is it possible that one can run Windows installer on XDA??
I have just installed this WIDCOMM BT manager. This thing at least is not asking for any pincode so I can easily establish the connection but later on i am not getting any data on the port. I am using ArcPad application by ESRI and I am supposed to use port 8 for GPS.
Can anyone tell me why there is no data comming thru the port?
Another problem is that the connection is lost after few minutes...
it works 4 me now
I did hard reset (upgraded my os / radio to 1.66.00 , 1.10.00)
disabled multilingual support,
installed the exe (FROM MY PC, NOT FROM THE DEVICE ITSELF),
and it solved the problem.
In the pairing process I managed to write NAVMAN (capital letters!),
without any problem
I hope it helps...

Re: it works 4 me now
Hey Tomer !
Thanks for your tip. I have had problems with the connection, but I used your tip, and now it works perfect.

Navman bonding
I dont have a problem getting the XDA II to bond with it, the problem I have is I can only select Com 7 in the Bluetooth tools menu and when I go to set up the GPS in Smartst it wont let me select Com 7.
Anyone have any ideas
I have a XDA and a Navmann 4100. A couple of weeks ago my Navmann dealer sent me the patch EnableCharPin & BTHTools1012 and I started the bond between the PPC and the 4100 and all went fine but a couple of days ago I suffered and full reset on the ppc and now I can not bond the ppc and the 4100 anymore.
Can someone tell what shall I do to bond once again the ppc and the 4100?
I have tried several times with the same process as before (EnableCharPin & BTHTools1012) but I had no succes, the ppc does not allow me to write Navmann, it only lets me write numbers.

I had this same problem when I had to do a hard reset with mine couldnt get it to rebond. The only way I managed it was to re install the character enable program. It seems to be specific on which order you do it unfortunately I cant remember what it was. I had to try it a few times myself for it to work.
The way I have managed to do it in the past is to make sure the PPC device is connected to your PC via active synch when you attempt to enter the characters (NAVMAN) That seems to in some way enable the enablecharaterpin software on the PPC. Let me know how you get on.
navman
probably the wrong place to ask but could that be used with the palm os ? ie charpin .exe

Hi Rudey
Hard to say... I believe that a guy called towa wrote this for PPC, but if you look up his user name here and e-mail or PM him he might know
Hope that helps

Enable CharPin
hi there
i tried a few links but i am unable to download Enable CharPin.zip from any for the link please can anyone help
many thanks
i tryed to search the forum but it seems no one had the same problem (or i was unable to search with the right term):
i try to make a backup of my MDAc, followed the described steps
(- MDAc in bootloader before tapping to install Windows
- connected the usb-cable
- launched romupdate
- selected \\.\WCEUSBSH001 as connection channel an
- gave OK), BUT
when the terminal window pops up i have no possibility to "insert d2s"
(and i saw some example screen how this window should look, but mine doesnt), because when the two devices try to communicate in the terminal window just appears "CLIENTCLIENTCLIENTCLIENT" then stops and stays in that way... no chance to insert anything...
some ideas?
thnx in advantage

Hi welcome to the forum
If you already READ the Wiki and couldn´t find solution, I would recommend to reinstall form cero another ROM, perhaps is a compatibility problem
Good luck
Hi!
I've recently bought an 101 G9 turbo and this far I'm pretty satisfied with it. However there is one thing that I can't get working (that should work) and that is mounting windows shares.
When going through the "Files" application, I can see the workgroup "WORKGROUP" and after clicking on that I can see my computer, after clicking on that I get a username/password popup, so far so good. After entering the correct user name and password however the popup just appears again! Checking in dmesg or logcat shows the following error:
"CIFS_VFS: cifs_mount failed w/ return code = -6"
After some googling this turns out to be the error thrown when you're trying to mount a share that doesn't exist. Now, I'm thinking that I'm not actually trying to mount a share yet. I'm trying to "browse" what shares are available on my computer.
Now to the questions:
- Has this _ever_ worked for anyone? (It seems to me that it's trying to mount the computer as a share)
- Is it somehow possible to specify which share I want to mount (eg. //192.168.1.2/Videos) without "browsing" to it?
Thanks alot

This is a common issue at the moment and to get around it just use a new file explorer from the app store (I use ES File explorer). Make sure that windows is set to share it on the network too as by default it just shares with home group.
