not having a bluetooth-manager means i dont have a software called
bluetooth-manager!

there is bluetooth-pda-sync to select in the options...there is just a
"dienst zu seriellem anschluss hinzufügen", which will cause a SerialPort-1.
i did have this serialport active by the way...

when i choose my device at the devices-tab (geräte) i have the opportunity
to edit ports (anschlüsse bearbeiten)... i activated the com4 as rs-232

is there any chance to get this to work? have you ever tried any device
without bluetooth-manager before announcing to support bluetooth-sync?
i never got my qtek 8010 to sync via bt and now have problems with the mda
too....thats not really a good support for this function...

well, maybe the device is the problem. can anyone please check if a htc
magician or himalaya is able to work with bt?
