Ok this has been done to death I know but I can seem to find the thread that allowed us to make sure the bluetooth never goes to sleep. its a reg hack and I lost it anyone know where its is or maybe what the string is?
this is the best resource on the web for the pocket PC devices by far all the others are a joke. I have recomended this site to several people in the past month so I hope we can keep growing
Thanks all

I use a small software (attached). I also don't remember of a reg hack.
I've done some rather extensive searching and it seems nobody has tried to manually replace these files in order to change bt stacks or at least fix compatibility issues. I want to try and screw around with these files using my Blackjack and Q, but am unsure exactly all the locations I should be looking. If this can't be done then nvm...but if anyone has any ideas as to the locations of these files or registry information, let me know. Thanks.
hello. I am having an issue installing skype on my smartphone. It currently has the Rogers ROM on it (yes, I changed it again )... Active Sync gets it on the phone alright, but the issue is when it starts to install on the phone, it comes up with a notice that I have insufficient privileges to continue. I have already tried the Application unlocked, but that just tells me that my phone is not unlockable.
I search around and found that the issue may be that the installer is trying to set some registry keys that it is not supposed to and to alter the .cab file. But I cant find the .cab file on my phone anywhere, so I dont know how i can go about modifying it. The PC-side installer is just an .exe file.
I also soft-restarted my phone to clear memery, so that is not an issue eaither.
Can anybody lend some insight to this issue?
thanks
have you tried this???

Wait - are you using total commander on the phone itself? Thats what im doing. I am using XP, but when I install total commander I cannot figure out how to browse my phone with it... I googled the hell out of it, but there is no option i can see that allows me to use the phone...
Is there any insight into this issue?
thanks

I bet youve seen it before, its quite slick.
Thanks for all your help, its really appreciated. Its crazy how I can call myself very computer literate (I work as a web/app/game developer, computer repair person and computer builder), yet I'm always learning/screwing things up/figuring things out/asking for help every day! However it always feels nice to stumble on a forum where the people know what the hell they are talking about.
yeah, the folks here know there stuff.. lots of new things to learn for me too!!
id like to get skype working on my phone... let me know if you get it going... shoot me a PM.

Welcome to the forums, kaponya
If u are using the same rogers rom, all u need to do is to download the cab file in that thread, copy it into your phone using activesync or bluetooth, and then just click on it, which will execute the program, and you might be asked to restart the phone for full effect.
Cheers
Well, since a new user has bumped the skype thread, has anyone been able to direct the sound thru the earpiece, and not the external speaker, in a satisfactory way yet?

Nope, I believe that it can only be done through the speaker... I was messing around with it and I could not get it to do it through the earpiece... maybe someone knows how to do it but I tried and no success.
I'm really hating that I downloaded this garbage onto my phone. The keys are a MESS. I've tried to download the fixes but I still can't sync my dash to my pc to even begin to fix it.
I called T-Mobile and their systems are down or something and won't be back up for 24 hours. UGH! I'm never downloaded "the latest" anything ever.
Sorry. I don't mean any disrespect but I can't believe I was foolish enough to blindly ruin my phone.
Does anyone know how I can fix it?
?
What steps did you follow, what ROM did you use?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=374890
OH SHOOOT! I'm a jackass!! I disconnected the dash before I did the second install to fix the keyboard.
Is there a way to get that fixed?
not quite sure
what you mean. After you flash the ROM then it goes through a couple of setup stages and reboots. You should then be presented with a working newly flashed rom at your new homescreen. You can then Activesync and copy over the keyboard fix and install it.

I dont think you understand what I mean. I cannot sync my dash at all. I've reseted both my pc and dash and nothing. I believe the computer is not recognizing the dash and I cannot connect online to even send/receive emails.
Again I ask, is there some way to fix this so I can at least sync my dash?

Can you got to settings\connection\USB to PC and turn of enable advanced network functionality, see if that will allow async
Also you have not said what os you use?
I'm sorry I'm running XP Home. I had to download ActiveSync 4.5 because I unselected "advanced network functionality. i'm going to try now and let you know what happens. THANKS!

Place it on the memory card, then open up Resco File explorer find the file click on it, intall to phone.
Reboot phone.
If predictive txt is on? Open up messaging in the input text box press FN+space click abc as this will turn off predictive txt.
Glad you got it synced.
Dash Synch
Is your Dash still synching. Mine did once or twice but cannot get it to synch again.

All,
I've just upgraded from WM5 to WM6 with HTC Home RevROM, which is excellent, however, I have this strange issue.
First, I paired my laptop through Internet Sharing over a Bluetooth PAN - works perfectly.
Second, I paired my Jabra BT2020 earpiece.
As soon as the Jabra was paired, the list of devices under Settings->Bluetooth->Devices was empty. Not even the words "Add new device" is present........
I have checked, and I can still continue to use my laptop through Internet Sharing, and I can also use my Jabra earpiece to take phone calls.
Switching the phone off/on and Soft Resets do not solve this problem. Only a hard reset will solve it - but then of course I have to re-enter everything - which I have done, only to have the problem re-occur, hence it is repeatable.
Has anyone else seen this issue and could help me with a solution. I have searched the forum (and Google) to no avail.
Many thanks,
BrianP6

Hey man, Unfortunatly this is a bug with my current kitchen, I believe he is using parts of it for making roms. I'm working to fix it soon in my kitchens.
Peace,
Josh
Thanks for the quick reply Josh,
Do you have any ideas at the moment as to the cause? Is it the number of connections, type of connections....... so that I can avoid the bug cropping up.
Also is there a workaround that you're aware of....
oh, and nice work chef
Cheers,
Bri.

This bug appears only when 2 or more devices get paired.
I've been trying everything, even abusalza himself suggested some module replacement. i'm working on replacing drivers and certain folders in sys in my kitchen but still nothing yet... so far not yet, but it's fixable, i just gotta figure it out.
Thanks Josh,
I guess you'd know this anyway, but for completeness and for the benefit of the whole forum.........
Even though the paired devices are no longer shown in the Bluetooth Devices window, and you can no-longer use your HTC to pair more devices, then so long as you carefully initiate the pairing from the other device, it will be recognised, PINs will be requested and devices configured appropriately. I have just done:
Audi A4 in car kit
Laptop via Internet sharing
Jabra earpiece
None appear on the Devices window, but all (so far) appear to work perfectly.
Cheers,
Brian.
I have had a similar nagging problem with my Motorola S9 and Hermes 100/Cingular 8525. After a new flash, I can pair the headset and the phone relatively easily. During first pairing, I am *not* prompted for the headset's PIN. Over time, switching between phone and music functions becomes more unreliable. Icons disappear while the headset is in use. Discontinuing a call with the headset results in audio resuming through the external speaker instead of the headset, etc.
Eventually, out of the blue, the headset will fail to pair; and I will receive a prompt to enter the PIN number for the headset. I enter the PIN and the phone refuses to accept that it's the correct PIN. From that point on, I'm screwed until I reflash the phone. It never works properly anymore.
This has happened across multiple ROMS, including some of Josh's that I've tried. It happened again the day before yesterday with one of TAI_Sw's ROMS I'm currently using. In this case the profile in Bluetooth settings appeared to be corrupted. The profile no longer read "Motorola S9". Instead it showed a series of block characters (like unsupported fonts). I was able to delete the profile, and, after multiple resets (hard and soft) the phone finally redetected the headset and we went through the configuration wizard again. It's been mostly working well since then.
Has this happened to anyone else?

Yep, I have experienced everything you mentioned at one time or another, even the square characters showing up in the device list.
I have gone all the way back to test Faria R32 ROM. It's amongst the best I've found for A2DP with the S9's along with some of PDACorners early ROM's. The drawback are that it doesn't have the 1% battery increase .dll cooked in and also still exhibits the "numbers for character during a call" bug.
It does have nearly 31 MB of memory free after fresh install though. (using 4MB pagepool - default is 6MB)

It frustrated me enough that I started building my own rom!
I released one version here that I have been running for quite some time with no issues in the bluetooth at all.
I need to tweak it a bit more to make it "polished" but it is very useable and stable. I just wanted to run it for a while to see how it is going to act over a longer duration before I continue to fool with it, and I have been rather busy here lately.
Well, if you have a magic potion, please share with the community. And, by the way, this is the only device I pair to my Hermes; so this may be different from the problem Josh and others have described.

i just installed your new v15 color(thanks very much for that release it looks great) and i definitely want to pair 2 devices with the phone. this has worked for me in whichever random wm6 rom i found on the web last year and i have been trying to find the right rom for me this week so my question: is this a random bug, is there a trick to doing it right or am i just plain sol?
Hmmm - doesn't happen on my ROMs...
The suspect things I'd be looking at in SYS are:
Bluetooth
Bth_A2DP
Bth_HID
Try replacing those folders with known good ones and see if the problem still happens...

No Magic potion! lol
I basically did what CRCinAU described. (His rom doesn't have the issue, and feels a bit faster than mine. But, I was looking to create "My perfect rom").
But I also replaced files in the redist folder with "bt" in their name, with files from a known working rom (anryl's 20755). Like I said I wanted to run the rom for a while, now I just need to go back and tweak and clean up some things in the rom before I make another release.

it is a really odd issue and seems to only affect the hermes... Here is the deal, Some chefs when porting sys grab the cplmain.dll to get the build number and keep some other items in their kitchen sys for stability purposes... I have noticed in my experience when porting, if the cplmain.dll does not match some other components with the same build number it will cause this issue. usually resist, shell, os, folders have been containing these sensitive items. so in short, if the issue is occuring cplmain.dll in redist folder does not match other components in your sys causign the conflict.
edit, and oh. i've tried replacing all bluetooth which had no effect.
So to fix this, the chef needs to report sys correctly and recook the rom.
