Hi everybody
I have a Charmer with v. 000.5b WM6 Essentials ROM for Charmer. After severals hours of (unsuccessfull :mad:) advances and after reading many tutorials I´m not able to set a Bluetooth Network connection between my Charmer and my PC.
I'm wondering if there is a special BT Driver with the Bluetooth PAN capability for the Charmer undeer WM6 needed.I was able to set a Bluetooth Activesync connection between the PDA and the PC . But i would like to connect to the internet free of the crappy AS.
My MSI Star Key BT-dongle can pair with the PDA and I see a BT-Network-shortcut in My Bluetooth Places. But doubleclick on it cause just a error message : ... not able to set a connection
If i go in WM6 to Settings - Connections - Connections i can set a new modem connection and if i choose - Select Modem : Bluetooth - it starts to search for the BT modem , finds My PC , but there are just the services : Activesync and Headset.
If i look to - NetworkCards i can find a PAN Bluettoth driver.
If you can help me i will be very glad. I tried almost any tutorial , but they are commonly for WM2003 and they are different with mine. E.g. there is no Bluetooth-Manager under WM6.
Thanks for reply ;)

i spent also already tons of hours getting this to work and i assume its somehow related to the charmer ROM i am using. I find my pc but under Settings - Connections - Connections when i set a new modem connection and select Bluetooth it finds my PC , but there are no services available.
i am thinking of going back to wm5 and trying it again.

Good Day,

I too am having this issue.

I am not using a cooked rom of any type, I am using an HTC Vogue with the factory rom installed (Windows Mobile 6 Professional: CE OS 5.2.1620 Build 18125.0.4.2).

From the reading I have done it leads me to believe that that the connection has to be setup using the Bluetooth DUN setups/addons/registry tweaks discussed in numerous posts within this forum.

However, I have been unable to find instructions that have been successful on my device.

My goal with this setup is to be able to go to friends houses as I travel, insert a Bluetooth USB dongle into their PC, and QUICKLY setup a PAN to borrow their internet connection for my device. To summarize I am looking for a solution to easily to connect to the internet without having to install ActiveSync on their machines.

Any input is apreciated, Thank You!
