- 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)

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...
Tomer

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

PDA2k; how to send file via Bluetooth

is there a way to send files through Bluetooth on PDA2k??

I have the same problem also, I can only send business cards and appointments.

PDA2K Bluetooth File Send
hi guys
just got my pda2k i use resco file explorer and there an option there now'just sent a video clip to my pc and it worked here the cab file its the lastest version as i dowloaded it last night---its a demo
Hope it helps
freelockuk

i have downloaded ur attached version of resco explorer and tried it; i have also tried various versions of Resco Explorer with different bluetooth devices (phones, PDAs, PCs etc) but i always get the following error:
"the connection to the peer bluetooth device failed"

the beam file screen doesn't seem to work..in resco explorer it works, but the devices must be paired crap..

have you paired them both first?

that's the point..u shouldn't be required to pair the devices, like nokia phones, u can send files without pairing..
Besides, using default file manager and chosing beam file doesn't work at all...bug?

yes they are paired, but still the file doesn't get beamed from PPC to PC
this sure is a bug or a limitation of Bluetooth in PDA2k.

to send to the pc you must go to bluetooth manager->new->Browse files on a remote service, then chose your pc, and select send file.
What i want to know is that if we can send images and other files using object push (like the 9090 does for contacts, appointments and tasks), i.e., without requiring the pairing of the devices

when i try this, it says: "Service Discovery was unsuccessful".

my imate PDA2k doesn't even send contacts, appointments and tasks using object push. it can't find my PC in 'Object Push Servers'. and when i select all devices and chose my PC it gives me the following error: "The Remote device does not allow contact items to be received".
is it because of XP SP2???
how do i enable Object Push Profile in XP SP2?

Guys, I can send files over BT from my Qtek-9090 to my friends iPAQ 1940, no problems at all !, well try this version it might help.

@FFVIII: I haven't tried yet to another ppc, but using resco explorer it fails sending to the pc..

OK, My Problem IS SOLVED!!!!!
i uninstalled XP SP2,.., back on the Widcomm bluetooth software and everything works again, PC to PPC or PPC to PC.
will check it now again with other PPCs and Phones.

what is the problem?

Sending via Bluetooth
unfortunatly MS have decided to make a massive change with the bluetooth stack on MS Mobile 2003. you can no-longer beam files via the explorer app or the beam files app. The way i've transferd file is to establish a file browsing session via bluetooth manager and then select send file. Unfortunatly this does mean the devices have to be paired and support tftp over bluetooth, but it does work. Im yet to test resco but will post when i do.

imate will lanche new update to fix this problem
now 4 updates in 2 month !!! thank you imate for pda2k

Hi there,

So my question is can u successfully send files to ppc , phones & pda?
But how??
Thanks

WM5 GPS application - iGuidance compatibility?

Hi
Does anyone know how to setup IGuidance to work with WM5? I dont know how to work the BT ports at all. In 2003se, i could use the "scan" for bt data and it'd find the itrek gps unit but now it results in "no gps found". alternatively, what other gps software will work other than tomtom? I dont have tomtom =(

I've got version 2.1 and it seems to work with WM5. I add the gps to the bluetooth and then I create an incoming and outgoing port. I set my gps to port 6. In IGuidance it won't detect the gps but if you manually choose port 6 it will work just fine.
Andy

iGuidance 2.1.3 locks up my Wizard after several minutes. Grrr...

I am having all sorts of trouble with my PDA2K (WM5) and iGuidance. Although I think it has more to do with my bluetooth than anything. When I first started trying to get it to work it gave me coordinates that I was in Africa... Anyway, I think I am going to go back to 2003SE.

I'm having a different problem with iGuidance v2.1.3 on WM5. It installs and runs just fine. I use BT over COM6 and it seems fine. The problem I have is that the coordinates are off. The strange thing is that when I run GPSInfo (a separate app) it shows the correct coordinates - iGudiance thinks they are different and thinks I'm in a different location ( a few miles away).
I gave up on it and decided to go back to 2003SE (iGuidace v2.1 that worked perfectly fine on that configuration a long time ago). I followed teh steps to format/clean hive and did the down grade but am having a different problem. I've seen other people running into similar issues but I've not been able to get around it
"BTTrayCE - bluetooth can no longer be used because the license has expired" - I have tried a number of things using different BT stacks, 2003SE builds, reset (soft+hard) etc. Same problem!!! Argh - I'm stuck. I really miss my GPS!

Hi krille,
I also had similar problems with my SX66 and iGuidance and finally decided to go back to win 2003 because it worked fine with it. In WM5 my BT GPS receiver was never able to make a connection with iGuidance. But now I am having a different problem. I cannot downgrade even though I followed all the instructions correctly posted on the BA_Downgrade page. The upgrade program ( MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe ) does not seem to identify the rom versions and though it gives me a successfully upgraded message nothing had happened. I cannot downgrade now and stuck with WM5. Did any of you experience this when downgrading and can offer me any help.
DEK.

I've been upgrading/downgrading with differnt ROMs without any problems
Make sure to disable activesync on the pc and copy the nbf files as described in http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Downgrade_WM5. Sometimes the verion info update to/from doesn't show between WM5/2003SE...
What happens when you click Update to continue?

BaUpgradeUt.exe worked
Thanks for your reply. I followed all the steps as described in the link you have sent but MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe did not upgrade (downgrade to 2003SE) though I got a message saying it did. Then I tried the file BaUpgradeUt.exe in PH20B folder and it did work. My device data file says my SX66 is in fact PH20B1 though. I do not know why MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe cannot update my ROM. Anyway I am happy now with my WM2003SE and iGuidance and BT all work faster with ROM update to 1.40. Now I am planing to customize my ExtROM to have all my personal settings and programs so that I want feel bad not having WM2005. Thanks for your willingness to help.

Bluetooth not working!!

hey, i own an O2 Xda orbit, and recently flashed it with artmeis touch 4.0 (full)
everything works fine xcept BT..! i mean to say that i can send files via it, BT gets detected on other fones but i can't recieve files!! what to do???

Go to settings->connections->Beam and check "Receive all incoming beams"

^^
its already checked... when a device tries to search my phone, it succesfully does and even successfully pairs but when other device tries to send a file, then the sending fails...
i can send to other devices via BT though...

first yes beems have to be on
and if still not working go to ftp tap in the bluetooth (i think it exist in your rom) and then check the enable file sharing and bluetooth rxplorer boxs (enable them)

its workin now.. thanx a lot!!!

error with bluetooth S620

hi everybody. I have an error with bt in my excalibur. I can use file explore to sent a file via bluetooth(beam). But I can use Ressco Explore to sent. and I cant sent file to blackberry using Resso or default explore .( I can receive files from BB, when beam to BB, My BB "turned on receive using bt" but My excalibur cant found device).
so what can I do to fix it? I have trie any rom, but it have no change. Pls help me.
( sorry if My English is not fluent)

nobody help me?

i have the same error but just to let u know the problem to me only happen withc blackberrys but i cant receive any file throught bluetooth i have to use bluetooth explorer to take a file so i am also waiting for an answer

up for anbody know....

i think you are using lovebabyjing's wm6.5 which is a wonderful rom but has some issues with bluetooth. yes you can receive files from other device through bluetooth. after you activate your bluetooth and set to discoverable you also need to check the beam from the connection settings then it can already receive. just try and wish you luck...

ok i think that the problem is with bb bc i have try with other brands and mines right now is working i get an error saying like obex is not ready or not compatible also please be sure that when you are receiving the bt file from a bb you have to go to the media payer and then meny and go to the option that said receive file or something like that i do that but get an error

my problem is sending files to the bb
