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

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.

i have a t-mobile mda3 Compact with PDAViet Black&Blue V3...
since i upgraded from WM5 to WM6 i can not sync to my PC over bluetooth..
can anyone with wm6 try this? maybe im only to stupid...
if it works.. pls tell me how...
thanks
Works just like it always did. Switched Bluetooth Radio on, started ActiveSync on my XDA and selected "Connect via Bluetooth" it than searched new Bluetooth Devices, found my Notebook with ActiveSync Service enabled and synced. Exactly the same as it was with WM5
doesnt work =(
that does not work for me... the following happens:
I enable bluetooth... open active sync and select connect via bluetooth...
A window pops up witch says : There is no Bluetooth Relationship with an ActiveSync enabled PC. Would you create a relationship.
If i click on Yes i get to the Bluetooth settings tab were i can enable / disable bluetooth.
If i create the bluetooth partnership myself, the same happens in Active Sync...
any ideas?? pls help me... i really need this.

Could you please explain to me more slowly I am sorry I am noob, I have the same problem
Finaly the problem solved. You are right it is because of incoming port. But another reason why in the begginning I don't know your statement about incoming port is because the application and the driver of my Bluetooh donggle which come with the device has different user interface. No incoming port is stated there . When I delete this driver and use the driver which includes from window XP, and try to pair it again, everything solved.
Thank for the information
I'm pretty sure i have everything setup on the pc right. Serial port is configured in WIDCOMM drivers as COM5. Activesync is setup to listen for COM5.. but on the ppc all i see is a serial port selection in the bluetooth mgr and not activesync.. Anyone have any tips to get it working correctly?
It isn't real clear from your post, but I assume you are trying to set up bluetooth sync.
Some avenues for you to explore:
Have you set up a partnership through USB connection? If not, this should be first on your list of things to do.
Have you paired the devices? Turn your PPC to discoverable in bluetooth settings and have your PC search for new devices. The wizard should pick up the PPC and walk you through the pairing process.
Does your bluetooth module support the correct services? Older bluetooth dongles and radios might not support syncing pim info.
I have the exact same Problem.
Did everything like it is described here in the forums. Firewalls and antivir deactivated. Used the right COM ports. Settings in Active Sync match. Pairing successful. The WIDCOMM-Driver even renames the Serial Port to ActiveSync after pairing. But even after all that, if I'm trying to get a Connection from my phone by using the ActiveSync on my phone with "connect via bluetooth", I cannot see ActiveSync there, just Serial Port. Switching on the Beam (like in some boards suggested) had no success either.
I tried reinstalling all. I tried my desktop PC and my Laptop (same problem). ActiveSync does know the XDA when I'm using a cable. I tried deleting the profile and create it again. I tried the Microsoft bluetooth stack instead on my laptop. I tried using another COM-Port. I tried deleting the pairing from the registry on the phone.
I have a XDA Neo / HTC Prophet with WM6 ProphetTouchIX, an Anycom BT-200 Bluetooth Dongle with WIDCOMM based driver. WINXP SP2 with the newest Security updates and Active Sync 4.5.
If anyone has any new suggestions, please post them here. If you have the exact same problem, post here, what you've tried to solve it, maybe we can at least find out, what's causing it.
found this one here:

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!

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....

Didn't have quite the same problem that you are having, but was having trouble. I found these instructions and took care of mine right away. The author, and the link to the site are listed in the instructions. I copied them to notepad so as not to lose them. Hopefully this will work for you.

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!!

We need more specifics to your issue, as there are several solutions. depending on which bluetooth stack you're using.
SO tell us which OS you're using on your PC (or MAC)
And tell us which bluetooth stack (drivers) you're using so we can give you the help you need

Do you know what COM ports (COM ports numbers) for serial connections the bluetooth stack created. The reason why i ask is, if you know which virtual serial COM ports your bluetooth stack created (ex: COM Port 3, COM Port 4, COM Port 5) and which com port number your device is assigned when you are paired with your PC, then you can go to connection settings in activeSync on your PC and select conection via com port and in the dropdown, match the COM port your device uses when connected to your PC.
Then the next time you connect your phone to your PC via bluetooth, in the services section of your phone (after it scans your PC for services) one of those services should say "Activesync" when you check that and press OK you should be able to freely connect via bluetooth
ok, im gonna do that right now
tnx
in my phone services it appears activesync, but it does not connect, i have in the port com19 and in activesync i have it too but it just doesnt connect

You need to make the port on activesync either 6 or 7 for some reason those were the only two ports for me that appear in WM I am using 6.1 now. Also are you sure that the computer and the phone are both set up to be "visible" to each other? When you do a bluetooth scan from the computer without using activesync can you see the phone? On the phone you just turn on visibility after you enable bluetooth. On your computer I am not sure. Then once they have both established a connection you should be able to see the phone then setup your comports and select activesync as a service. This should enable you to sync bluetooth by selecting it in the menu from activesync. The problem that I am having myself is that when I try to sync the phone between my laptop work--and home the internet explorer favorites get messed up and i am getting an activesync error between files and favorites. What I have been doing is deleting the device and starting fresh however this sucks but at least i always have a backup either the laptop or the desktop
they are both visible, the problem that i have is that i cant use a 6 or 7 port inmy laptop, all the ports that i can make are 14,15,16 etc. so in my computer i cant open the 6 or 7 port
so its pretty crazy
Heres what you do

Can you use the soleil drivers they have always worked well for me i to have had that problem. I ended up deleting everything and starting form scratch that fixed the problem. And yes that means the drivers on the computer. Also make sure that your not running the dell driver(might be toshiba stack) and the windows drivers this will cause conflict.
I am also having all sorts of bs with the Toshiba BT stack... need to find some compatable drivers.
so the thing is, i have to uninstall de dell driver and install a bluesoleil driver???
where do i find it?
i´ve already downloaded a bluesoleil driver but it didnt work
