x51 Bluetooth Manager.. WHERE is it?

[Gelo]

Everything worked the same as your tutorial up to a point.

I never got the active sync option when I explored my PC. It only game me serial port.

I'm using TrendNet bluetooth dongle on my pc with Windcom drivers. Yes, I had my PC in the discoverable mode.

Hi EngrPaul,

I was able to setup bluetooth by removing Windcom drivers (see http://www.geekzone.co.nz/content.asp?contentid=3163 for instructions on how to do it). Once I uninstalled them I used Daniel's tutorial and it worked. So give it another try.

Hi all,

it's been a while, but I managed to get my bluetooth to work on my X51v (Rom version A01), with activesync (version 4.0.0). Unfortunately, I do not have details on how I managed to get to this point. Basically, by trying and retrying, uninstalling and reinstalling activesync, removing and re-establishing partnerships.....

The most useful part of the information may be that the above combination of X51v + Activesync(4.0.0) *CAN* work.

You know it's time to cheer when -miraculously- the X51v tells you that available services on the PC include "activesync" instead of the previously mentioned "serial port"

By the way, if anybody knows why this difference between available services "serial port" and "activesync" occurs, I'm interested. You never know when this next hard-reset is required :(
