TP rootrom

pc to mobile, or mobile to pc

never messed with bluetooth and so far is a HUGE PITA.

mobile sees pc but will not connect (askes for wireless stereo and/or serial port)

pc sees mobile as modem, will not connect, dial numbers i changed a few times never works.

both ways give me thier versions of "failed" when i try to connect.

Searched here for 2 hrs, tried a few with no luck.

I figure its something dummy stupid but i cannot seem to sort it out right now, and its getting to me.

What are you trying to achieve? ActiveSync over BT or what?

USB works great

With that said, BT does as well, just requires some more leg work.

So... I'm wondering what's wrong. Where are you getting stuck? I'm assuming you've done some googling/searching the site first...?

I'm also assuming you either a) have a bluetooth dongle using USB or b) your lappy (perhaps desktop) has it built-in.

If you don't satisfy a or b, then forget it.
