Hello Every1,

I would like to apologies first in case this topics has been already been talked about, but I could not find anything.

My V1605 has a problem if I trasfer file via bluetooth to my laptop or any pc with bluetooth I can do it but if I try to transfer the file from a laptop or a pc with bluetooth the pc say that it cannot find the service on my pda.

I've tryed modifying the registry:
HLM\Software\Microsoft\Obex\IsEnabled from 0 to 1

But eveytime I soft rest the PDA it goes back to 0.

I've try without soft rest but I stll cannot transfer file from my laptop to my PDA I've try changing the Registry and switch off the PDA for 10 minute then soft rest but I get the same thing the Registry goes back to 0.

Is the something that I',m missing to get the bluetooth to transfer both way or is it that this unit cannot do it??????

Please Help.

Thank You

Gigino

This is something very basic but thought to still write in case you are missing it.

Navigate to Start / Settings / Connections(tab) and open the 'Beam' icon. See if the checkbox 'Receive all incoming beams' is checked. This should be checked.

This is sometimes confused as being for infra red transfer only whereas this also applies to bluetooth file transfer.

Hope this helps

Yup, it's very confusing - this is why I've elaborated on this question at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=1196&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1

Hello

Thank you every1 that put a solution on the forum but I'm afraid I still have the same problem.

I've put the tick in the receive all beam box but I still cannot transfer file via bluetooth to my pda.

I've checked the registry to see if the Obex is ste to 1 and it is.

When I click on my bluetooth icon on my laptop I search for a bluetooth device it find my pda a tap on my pda to transfer a file and I get a message on my laptop saying:

Service File Transfer Is Not Availabe On Device Gigi.

Any anther suggestions.

Thanks

Strange. Did you try for example to hack a Widcomm BT stack on it?

(I'm afraid a hard reset is in order...)
