Hello,
I recently upgraded my TyTN to the official WM6, and ran into an issue. Occasionally, I use another phone as external modem (mostly via bluetooth, but ir is also an option). When doing this, I need to tell the TyTN to dial the number *99#, but also to use an extra AT dial string (in my case: +cgdcont=1,"IP","internet.proximus.be" ).
On WM5, there was a tab called "general" in advanced modem settings where this dial string could be set (other tabs were tcp/ip and servers), other settings in this tab were baudrate and portsettings. On WM6, this general tab is gone...
How can I set this dialstring?
(is there a fix, or a workaround e.g. by entering it somewhere in the
registry or in a configuration file)
Thanks!
Jörg
I have no idea if this is what you are looking for but u can try http://www.vijay555.com/?Releases:VJPhoneTools
i am using a lot of vijay555's tools and they are ok.
Thanks for the link, but it doesn't help my problem...
Apparently, if the device used as modem runs Windows Mobile, the device using it doesn't need to set an init string, as I read here:
http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=1282&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1#more1282
The device I'm using as modem is a Nokia 6260 (which runs Symbian 60, v2.x). Is there perhaps a similar workaround?
Jörg
You may reference this translated article:
http://64.233.179.104/translate_c?h...www.mobile01.com/print.php?f=222&t=361268&p=1
Basically, it says use a WM5 machine, configured all the init strings, export the rasman\devcfg registry key, and import it back to the WM6 machine.
Cool... Thanks!
When I find a WM5 device, I'll definately give it a try.
(hopefully, there quickly comes a fix for this...)
Jörg
I found on Meinessyys' blog that if the modem is a Windows Mobile device, the dial string can be circumvented by entering specific fields on the Windows Mobile device. As it turns out, this is also the case on Symbian systems. The setting there is in
Menu > Settings > Connection > GPRS
The access point (which should be put in the extra dial string) should be entered in this field. Dialing *99# will cause this entry to be used.
(my problem is solved thusly )

Wassup All,
This thread is dedicated to problem resolution. So if you have a prob let us know. And for those who know how to fix the problem post your solution here and let everyone be happy!
BTW, here is a set of solutions for:
1) those whose WM5 lockups during the night (haven't had this for a week or so after applying the following):
a. Make sure your Today Items are compatible with WM5 (disable suspicious items by unchecking Settings->Today->Item name box);
b. Disable HKCU\Control Panel\Phone\Sleep by putting 0 value;
2) those whose GPRS connection drops when putting/receiving a call:
a. Make sure your HKLM\ConnMgr\Planner\Settings\SuspendResume contain ~GPRS! value
b. Power off your device after 5sec of GPRS connection establishment
c. Try to place/recv a call
3) those whose Bluetooth over ActiveSync have stopped working unexpectedly:
a. Make sure your desktop PC have at least one network adapter enabled (if you have no adapters you may install MS Loopback software adapter from network adapters section of hardware installation wizard)
b. On your PPC, check ActiveSync->Connections->Syncrhonize all PCs using this connection box
4) those who have dual sim card and changing of cards using flight mode off/on takes so much time:
a. Whenever you need to change sim card start Wireless Modem application, choose Irda from the drop list and tap Start. Then tap Stop and close Wireless Modem. Now you can turn off flight mode in much faster way.
5) Caller ID filter to be used during the night or busy sessions:
a. Assign a ringtone to VIP contact using Contacts->Ringtone
b. Find any silent wave/wma/mp3 file and place it to \windows or \windows\rings folder
c. When you need to receive only VIP calls choose this silent audio file from your Phone->Options->Ringtone drop list
6) To disable automatic repeat of reminder:
Set "0" to HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications\Reminders\AutoSnooze\AutoSnoozeMins value
7) To enable MMS reception:
Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=142617
Re: WM5: Problem Resolution Center
Is there anybody who progressed with ArcSoft MMS/Inbox integration?
This thread is an excellent idea. Here are a few questions/issues I am facing with WM5.
- The Alram Bug is back My alarms don't ring. Sometimes they ring once and instead of repeating, like they are supposed to, they just go back to sleep. They will only continue when i turn on the phone (whever that may be).
- ActiveSync is always running on the PPC. If I kill it manually, it comes back after a while.
- Can I hide the BT icon in the system try? Can I control the display (hide/unhide) the system tray?
- Can i customize the soft buttons (Phone, Contacts) at the bottom? i.e. assign other programs to those buttons and change the label?
- Camera and record hardware buttons do't work. This has been widely reported and I believe its under investigation.

In your particular case let's try the following: while your system is powered (power off value does not turn off your device) a set of automatic snoozes will be performed and each snooze will prolong time of power-off.
So, change HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications\Reminders\AutoSnooze\AutoSnoozeMins to a value less than the value of system Power Off.
Example of alarm that repeats every 2 mins on a system that suppose to power-off after 3 mins of idleness:
a. Set up value of Power off (Settings->System->Power->Advanced->Turn off device if not used for) to 3 mins
b. Set the registry value to 2 mins
- Can I hide the BT icon in the system try? Can I control the display (hide/unhide) the system tray?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You can control appearance of the icon by moving \Windows\Startup\BTIcon.lnk file to and from \Windows\Startup\ folder. Example, I want tray icon so I leave the file in \Windows\Startup\ folder. Now I don't want tray icon so I move \Windows\Startup\BTIcon.lnk file to a different place and soft-reset my device to get the changes take effect. Moving operations can be performed using Windows Explorer (Cut function)
- Can i customize the soft buttons (Phone, Contacts) at the bottom? i.e. assign other programs to those buttons and change the label?

Place path and name for your applications at the value 1 of HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCProg and HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSContacts registry branches.
Here is an example of starting calculator when pressing Contacts button:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSContacts\1 = calc.exe OR \windows\calc.exe
WARNING! Changing of CProg branch will lead to remap of your Green Phone Button too.
ActiveSync is always running on the PPC. If I kill it manually, it comes back after a while.

I also noticed that and changed many reg values so don't remembler what helped. First try to uncheck this checkbox "ActiveSync->Connections->Syncrhonize all PCs using this connection" when not using activesync and soft-reset your device to see if it helps. Let me know on your progress pls.
Camera and record hardware buttons do't work. This has been widely reported and I believe its under investigation.

TomTom51/WM2005/BlueTooth problems
Can someone help me?
About every minute TTN5.1 is loosing the Bluetooth GPS
(EMTAC Crux II/BTGPS) but soon after finds it again.
I'm using de TomTom5patch but can not use com5.
Also installed Bluetoothtools, using com4 for the BTGPS.
Com 5 is in use according to Bluetoothtools
(http://www.bluetooth.jazztel.es/).
Within TTN5.1 i can select the BTGPS correctly on com4.
It identifies itself as the BTGPS.
I'm not using "New Outgoing Port" or "New Incomming Port"
because i'm not sure if this is necessary.
If it's necessary, what port must I use?
Can the settings done by the TomTom5patch be reversed and how?
Which settings are affected by this patch?
How do i disable Infrared on the Himalaya?
How do i disable BT within TomTom?
My main issues seem to be
MMS- Cant get to work at all
GPRS- Cant get internet over GPRS
Camera and Notes button- Can live without these
i have the same problem with tomtom my bluetooth keeps droping out.
i'm using tomtom5.0 and the tomtom com5 patch
with the deflut microsoft bluetooth
i set my outgoing port to com5 and tomtom5.0 can find it but like i said it drops out alot
and one more side note i put my com5patch file in my tartup folder but after i soft-reset and try to start tomtom. tomtom can't find com5 so i have stop tomtom and manuly go start the com5patch
this kinda sucks so if anyone can help that would be great
Active Sync cannot work at all
I got problem with active sync, and xbackup. It always said database error, and all option on Hima's Active sync setting greyed out.

Automatic disconnect is known feature of Pocket Bluetooth Tools it automatically disconnects after 1 minute of BT inactivity. As I remember you can stop this feature by taping on clock icon at your today so your clock icon should not have white color but should be grey. Warning! By disabling automatic disconnect feature your battery draining rate may increase.

Sorry don't have TT & BT GPS. Haven't you tried Settings->GPS Wizard for setting up your GPS?
0) Pair your GPS using serial profile
1) Set COM9 to Settings->GPS->Programs tab->"GPS program port:"
2) Set COM0, if not using ActiveSync over BT, or COM1, if using AS over BT, to Settings->GPS->Hardware tab->"GPS hardware port:"
3) Make sure your Settings->GPS->Access tab->"Manage GPS automatically" is checked
4) Open your TT and select COM9 in your device configuration window
OR
0) Pair your GPS using serial profile
1) Select your device through Settings->Connection->Bluetooth->Com Ports->New Outgoing Port->Your GPS Device
2) Tap Next
3) Select any port under "Port:", e.g. COM8
4) Open your TT->GPS Device Configuration->Select Com8
Try to check if your GPS works... if not, continue with the following:
4.1) Open Settings->GPS Wizard, Assign hardware com port to COM8 (Hardware tab) and Assign program com port to COM9 (Programs tab), check the "Manage GPS automatically" in Access tab
4.2) Select COM9 in your TT.
Good Luck! ;-)

Registry Settings -> Software Settings
Dear All,
Please pay attention that after making changes, installing new software or doing your usual software settings it is advisable to power off your device before soft-resetting.
Example, I recently setup my Inbox mail accounts and soft resetted my device in a usual way. After a soft reset I found out that none of my accounts was actually kept. So, I did setup again, powered off my device and soft-resetted it. After soft-reset all mail accounts were saved and were workable
Solution for TomTom51/WM2005/BlueTooth problems
Hi all,
I think I've found a solution.
TTN5 works for me perfect now, but when I activate the
compass so it will display itself on the navigation screen,
then the GPS is lost (and found again) about every minute.
When I deactivate the compass, there is no problem at all!
So, try this and let me know if this solves your problem.

Keep your eye on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=142617#142617
Indeed clicking as much as one time on "Bluetooth Explorer" will cause TomTom not to function properly any more (maps/voices not found etc.).
I have learnt that the hard way!!!
Many members of this forum speculated that the Artemis SD card housing is somehow related to TT's maps to vanish.... NOT TRUE!!!
After a hard reset I have tested that TT was fully functional and I have (intentionally... just to find out) clicked on Bluetooth Explorer and BINGO the TT6.1 maps&voices are GONE!!!
If some of the forum experts would happen to read this and would feel like giving instructions to disable Bluetooth Explorer it would be very helpful.... this will surely avoid SEVERAL hard resets to many people.
I have read that one should go to Settings/Connections then select the FTP tab and uncheck "Enable Bluetooth Explorer" but this is not to be found on my ARTEMIS (P3300)... Let's see if somebody will find a moment to share his/her wisdom with the rookies and shed some lights on this annoying problem.
Cheers!
SiperX
On my Orbit you do the following to disable the Bluetooth Explorer
Settings / Connections / Bluetooth / FTP (tab)
Then select or de-select Bluetooth Explorer.
I appreciate your kind reply Patrick but as you can read in my thread this path (Settings / Connections / Bluetooth / FTP (tab)) is not available in the Artemis/HTC P3300.... Anybody else?
Do you have a comms manager? If so you can access the ftp option of the bluetooth settings from here.
TomTom and Bluetooth explorer both work on my xda orbit.
herghost, what version of TomTom are you running?
I m unable to have Bluetooth Explorer enabled on my Orbit, and get TomTom to find the maps. I am running ver 6.02
perfect, i wasnt able to make tomtom recognize maps on orbit(on universal it works w/o probs) i switched bt expl. off and it works. thx
Guys, there is no doubt. TT (mine is version 6.1) and BT Explorer are NOT going to work together! I am glad to hear that phsnake could get his orbit to resume TT functions.... And (also) I found out that my old rom (the one originally shipped with the P3300) had the path (Settings / Connections / Bluetooth / FTP) to disable BT Explorer (as Patrick_UK explained) ... but the one I am using now does not offer the chance to enable/disable BTE.... any registry master would be kind enough to offer his/her expertise to make this possible? I am not so keen on editing the REG unless I know exactly what has to be done
rom 1.28.0.0 wwe
rom date 11-06-06
radio 02.69.90
protocol 4.1.13.30
ext. rom PDAMobiz.com
SiperX:I'll try today to find reg solution, i cannot promise anything, but i'll do reg export with btexpl. switched on, then with switched off and compare reg.files. hopefully i'll find the right one key.
Phsnake, this sounds like a great idea! Thanks in advance!!! I really hope that you can succeed and give me support in this matter.
By the way where did you find the rom (ROM: DOPOD IPL: 1.25.0001 SPL:1.27.0000 GSM: 2.69.90 OS:1.28.0.0 WWE) you are running now? It sounds lke the right one for my T-Mobile Artemis.
so i compared the regs and diff follows:
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\BluetoothFolder]
"EnableClient"=dword:00000001
"HDEVICE"=dword:00031380
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Active\68]
"ClientInfo"=dword:00000000
"Hnd"=dword:00031380
"Key"="Drivers\\BlockDevice\\BTDisk"
"Name"="BTD1:"
i guess all U need 2 do is change "EnableClient" from 1 to 0. try it and let us know. (i can disable it thru bt settings). or remove above posted reg entries.
ROM:its standard dopod shipped(the latest one) should be on wm-gurus.com
Thanks man! The registry editing you suggested worked and the BT Expl. is now OFF and TT finds the maps again!!!
But the option to enable/disable the BT Expl. (via BT settings as you say) is still not available any chance you could send me a screenshot of your reg for both [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\BluetoothFolder] and [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Active\68]?
For your Dopod rom, could you please give me a precise link where I can download it? I could not find it at wm-gurus.com.
Thanks a lot
ftp.wm-gurus.com/Artemis/Shipped_Complete_Updates/ARTE_DOPODAU_12570702_026990_WWE_SHIP.exe
yes i know that wont allow u to switch off btexpl. thru bt control panel.
Here are regentries U requested, but i dont think it'll help. but try.
Thanks again!
BTW, the same file (ARTE_DOPODAU_12570702_026990_WWE_SHIP.exe) was available at XDA too.... I have tested it a few weeks ago it and -being an AU (Australian rom) my sim (Dutch T-Mobile) did not get registered as the operator is apparently not quoted .... strange that you can use it in Scotland.
For regs I will see what I manage to put together and will let you know... Great (and prompt) support was very appreciated...
Hi again,
I have flashed once more the ARTE_DOPODAU_12570702_026990_WWE_SHIP.exe onto my Artemis and I have (FINALLY) noticed that the SIM does register and I am able to use the phone (incoming & outgoing calls).
The only problem is that every time I reboot I get a notification from the "NETWORK WIZARD" which says "your current operator (20416) is not supported. You should obtain an update from your device vendor".... Any idea how I can get this nag off my back?
Thanks
try to check \windows\startup
I have deleted (& made a copy for backup) these 5 files:
netwiz.cpl
netwiz.dat
netwiz.exe
netwiz.exe.0404.mui
netwiz.ini
from the Windows folder of my Artemis.
After rebooting the Network Wizard notification does NO LONGER pops up!!!! So I would say "Problem solved", right?
I am glad that -thanks to the recent communications we exchanged- you "inspired" me to give one more try to the Dopod rom and I finally seem to have found what I wanted.
Only one final point: In other roms if you click on the phone signal bar you get the option to turn on/off the flight mode and if you click on the icon on the right of the phone signal bar you culd turn on/off the WiFi... in this rom you get a small (blue) Comm Manager link to follow in order to enable/disable these functions.... did you find any faster ways to activate WiFi or Flight mode? May be they can be added to the voice commands?
Cheers
u can use phonealarm-some skins supports one click wifi, gprs,btooth switch,
I saw phonealarm but I have decided to spend the end of the weekend configuring my newly installed rom (immediately after I will make a Sprite backup) and along the way try to think of something to keep to a minimum the amount of additional SW installed. What do you think if I use "tray launch", would that allow me to make the necessary shortcuts?
By the way (with previous roms) I kept my Artemis overclocked at 240 Mhz and it was pretty stable, did you test any higher frequency on the Dopod rom?
Hello,
I have recently upgraded my MDA Vario II with Schap's 3.30c in Spanish (nice work, btw). I'm trying to use another 3G phone as an external modem for the Hermes due to cheaper rates here in Spain, but I cannot make the connection.
The other mobile phone is an LG U8210, and both devices pair correctly. I do configure the connection via Bluetooth and I enter as dialing numbre on the Hermes *99#, same as when using the Hermes as a modem with the PC.
It seems to try to connect with the LG, but then drops the connection so I was wondering if the problem is on the dialing number I'm entering.
If anybody is using an external mobile phone as a bluetooth modem for the PDA, could you please post your modem configuration?
Many thanks.
P.S: I've searched the forums and it seems some people are using this setup, but none of them say anything about "special" parameters.
anyone can help? Please.
I'm not using WM6, but I sometimes connect my Hermes (latest official WM5)
via bluetooth to a Nokia 6260 which then dials a gprs connection.
settings:
modem: bluetooth
number: *99#
on the username/password page, in the advanced settings, I have:
general:
baudrate 115200
uncheck wait for dialtone
extra dial string (most likely, this is your problem)
+cgdcont=1,"IP","internet.proximus.be"
(internet.proximus.be is the accesspoint I need to use)
check cancel if not connected for 120s
port settings:
8, none, 1, hardware
(three next unchecked)
tcp/ip:
use server assigned
uncheck slip
check software compression
check ip header compression
servers:
check use server assigned
Most likely, you don't have the extra dialstring set. I'm not sure what
you should set (I would suggest using the same one as the one I have, but
with the name of your accesspoint). Without this string, I also couldn't
dial.
For test purposes, you can first try to dial a regular phone number: this
doesn't require an extra dial string. That way you can tell if the modem
works correctly.
(FWIW, the same configruation is also usable over an IR connection )
Best of luck,
Jörg

Tried adding the dial string on the *99# number, but it does not work either. It doesn't even appear to try to dial on the other phone. And if I try to enter a normal number, as it is searching for a modem, it says there is no modem on the entered number...
I guess I'll have to google a bit more as it is more likely to be abnormal behaviour of my LG phone.
Anyway, anyother ideas are welcomed.
Thanks!
Here are all my steps:
First I have a screen where I can choose the name of the connection and
the modem. After choosing "bluetooth" and "next", I get a list of paired
devices that support the DUN profile; here I select my Nokia 6260 which
has been paired beforehand.
Next page is the phone number.
Next page has username, password and domain; plus a button labeled
"Advanced". The soft keys are now labeled back and finish.
I click the button Advanced, which brings up a screen with 4 tabs:
general, port settings, tcp/ip and servers.
Then general tab is where I can find the extra dial-string commands.
There must be a way in WM6 to get to these settings, as they are very
standard modem settings.
Jörg
Sorry, double post...
(browser issues)
Jörg
I just upgraded my TyTN with the official wm6 upgrade... and also lost that general tab. Like you, I can't get the TyTN to connect via my other mobile...
Anyone know if there is a registry string that can be added and filled in as extra dial string?
(I have mailed HTC support Europe)
(a search on google yields that this is a common issue on many wm6 devices)
Jörg
It seems you've found the same as I have in google. If I can get anything new, I'll keep u posted.
Cheers for the help anyway.
I found a workaround for my situation (where I use a Nokia 6260 als bluetooth modem).
The 6260 runs Symbian 60 v2.x, and it has this setting:
Menu > Settings > Connection > GPRS
where you can enter an access point. When I enter internet.proximus.be (the same one as the one I'd put in the extra dial string), the TyTN doesn't need an extra dial string to be able to use this connection. I suspect this setting adds tells the Nokia to alter the dialstring so that it works.
On Meinnesyys (or however it is written) blog, it is mentioned that the similar workaround is possible when the device used as modem is running Windows Mobile:
http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=1282&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1#more1282
So the extra dial string is not necessary when the modem runs Symbian or WM... As these features are NOT well documented (I guessed the Symbian workaround by reading the referenced blog), perhaps other phones might have similar settings?

I'm struggling to restore BT Dial-Up Networking profile in my i780. I've used known solution for this, but it doesn't work exactly as it should.
After changing HKLM\Software\Microsoft\BTHATCI\Port from '5' (default) to '3', I've managed to get to the stage, where DUN profile is recognised by other devices (my Nokia N810 Internet Tablet in particular), but when I try to actually connect - it fails. However, it seems like really close to the definitive connection - there is BT communication between devices, even Data Call Manager in i780 indicates 'general.t-mobile.uk' data call, while N810 is still waiting for connection and eventually dies.
Because I've had DUN working excellent between N810 and HTC Kaiser, powered by dutty's WM6.1, I've manually checked all DUN-related registry settings in Kaiser and i780 - they are all the same. The only different bits that are relevant here, are \Windows\atcmdint.dll and \Windows\bthatci.dll files. I've tried to copy them across from Kaiser to i780, but I can't - as they are protected by the system.
I don't have any other ideas what could cause such problems. DUN service is detected, I can initiate connection, but I can't get it finally connected. I think mentioned above files are the very last resort in this case. Is there any way of extracting system-protected files from \Windows directory? Or maybe someone has it saved somewhere and could send them out? Thanks in advance for any advise.
I've managed to figure out that phone doesn't respond to ATDT command. It takes AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","general.t-mobile.uk" initstring correctly (hence Data Call Manager shows APN), but when it comes to ATDT*99# - it fails with the error. I've also tried to dial ATDT*99***X# where X=0-6 but also no luck.
Any suggestions?
Greetings,
Does the ModemLink application support the T-Mobile Dash? I am attempting to use it with WM6 over USB, but when I attempt to activate it I get an error stating "Unsupported or Unavailable connection."
I have found several articles detailing very specific steps for creating a USB ModemLink connection, but none of them have resolved my issue. I have reset my phone to factory defaults to ensure that no settings are to blame. I need my phone to appear as a literal Modem (more specifically a GSM Modem) to the computer, capable of using HyperTerminal to issue AT Commands to the Phone.
Dozens of Google searches into this, the only info I have been able to find is that ModemLink tries to connect over Com8, and apparently Bluetooth connections also use Com8. I can see in the registry (HKLM\Software\Microsoft\ATCIUI) a 'Connections' entry of 'USB|COM8:|' which would lend credibility to that bit of research. However, I have disabled both activesync and bluetooth entirely, and the error persists.
Any help on this would be great. I intend to try modifying the Reg to use Com6 as a basic test, but other than that I am at a loss.
Thanks in advance.
