Okay, here's my problem. I had Bluetooth ActiveSync working, but I installed Nyditot's Virtual Display and lost the use of all my buttons (directional, power, scroll, etc). To fix that issue I had to do a hard reset of my Axim X5. After reinstalling my drivers for my Billionton Bluetooth CF, I can't initiate an ActiveSync connection from the Bluetooth Manager on the Axim. It is sucessfully paired and I can do Network Access and do File Sharing with no problems through the Bluetooth Manager. When I try activating the Bluetooth ActiveSync, it sucessfully connects to my notebook (Inspiron 8600 with built in Bluetooth), and the desktop ActiveSync 3.7.1 client acts like it's going to work and the green globe swirls for a while, but then errors out stating that it can't find a device to connect to. (BTW, I can sync via my USB cable and 802.11b card with no issues.)
Things I've tried:
1) Removing ActiveSync 3.7.1 from my notebook and reinstalling
2) Removing the Dell Bluetooth software from my notebook and reinstalling
3) Resetting the Axim X5 again and reinstalling the drivers
Some more information:
1) The notebook automatically assigns the ActiveSync Bluetooth Port to be COM6 (This was the setting before I had issues syncing)
2) The notebook also automatically assigns a Bluetooth Serial Port to be COM7 (This was the setting before I had issues syncing)
3) The default incoming port on the Axim is COM8 and the outgoing port is COM9 after installing the Bluetooth drivers
I don't know why the ActiveSync Desktop client won't see the Axim at all. I believe it's some issue on the Axim side, but I don't know why. It's driving me crazy. Any pointers or help would be greatly appreciated.
