Asus P320 Bluetooth Problem WM 6.5

Since upgrading to Windows Mobile 6.5 I along with others have not been able to receive files via bluetooth. This has been true for the 23016 / 23085 versions of WM 6.5 that have been release for this device at the below locations

WM6.5 build 23016


WM 6.5 build 23085


However recently I came across a post that mentioned how to fix this problem courtesy Hdubli. It requires to make he following registry change.

If you don't know how to do this, I would recommend you go to the following post and download the registry editor

http://p320.blogspot.com/2009/02/mobile-registry-editor-for-asus.html


Once you have the registry editor, carry out an active sync with your device and run the registry editor. You should be able to see the following screen.





Navigate to the following key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE --> Software --> Microsoft --> Obex



Right click the screen and say new String Value


Enter the Value Name protocols and Value Data as bth,irda


Say ok, and you need to restart your device, bluetooth should now be working !

Hope this helps, do drop me a comment, would love to hear from you, if your feeling generous you could donate a dollar :)

  10. hey here is the fix for incoming call notification. I finally found it out.

    Put xtringlock.exe in \windows\startup folder,it will auto lock the device while ringing,so the incoming call window will be always full screen.To delete it you can run xtRingLock.exe again to exit the process then delete the file.

    download from here: http://www.xtkit.com/wp-content/plugins/download-monitor/download.php?id=2

  17. Hi bro,
    Thanks for the advise. Regarding the bluetooth problem, please install the PHM RegEdit in ur phone and edit directly as above. No need to communicate with PC. The file will transfer directly inside ur storage card\FTP.
