useful tweak for keeping Bluetooth connection with paired devices

not sure if its known tweak but it might me very useful to keep bluetooth connection with GPS or GPRS connection via bluetooth

Bluetooth in PocketPC 2003 will always ask for a device before connecting

(PocketPC 2002 only asks the first time and does not ask again once the devices are paired).

If you would like the PocketPC 2002 behavior there is a registry entry which can be made.
  • You will need a registry editor like RegEdit.
  • Under the registry key HKLM\Software\Widcomm\BtConfig\AutoConnect\0005 or HKLM\Software\Widcomm\BtConfig\AutoConnect\0008 ; it may be one or the other of these depending on the PDA make, model or ROM version.
  • Create a new DWORD value called : BtBrowserEnabled and set it to: 0
  • Bluetooth should now connect to a paired device without asking.
