Guest yves Posted November 20, 2003 Report Posted November 20, 2003 well, has anyone ever found out any way to get BT functionality? regards
Guest moo_ski_doo Posted November 20, 2003 Report Posted November 20, 2003 It's not really possible at the moment - although you can get Bluetooth SDIO cards which slot in to your SD slot, there's no support for Bluetooth in Smartphone 2002, so unless you can get an upgrade to Windows Mobile 2003 (which you certainly can't at the moment, but it might be possible in the future) it's never gunna happen :lol:

Guest yves Posted November 20, 2003 Report Posted November 20, 2003 well thank you spacecowboy6982, but I was looking for kinda true bt-functionality and not just a wireless audio transmitting device.
Guest spacecowboy6982 Posted November 20, 2003 Report Posted November 20, 2003 Hmm, dunno if thats possible m8...sorry spacecowboy
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted November 20, 2003 Report Posted November 20, 2003 As said above it's not possible as Smartphone 2002 does not support it.
Guest MECX Posted November 22, 2003 Report Posted November 22, 2003 Unless microsoft update the ROM with some bluetooth drivers it will never be possible (you can get WIFI SD cards with storage which could be an alternative but the manufacturer would have to release some drivers)
Guest fozzie Posted November 22, 2003 Report Posted November 22, 2003 Unless microsoft update the ROM with some bluetooth drivers it will never be possible (you can get WIFI SD cards with storage which could be an alternative but the manufacturer would have to release some drivers) An alternative? It's the only option. AFAIK, the e100 doesn't have the Bluetooth hardware so no amount of drivers or OS upgrades is going to change that - you will always need some external hardware :?
Guest MECX Posted November 23, 2003 Report Posted November 23, 2003 sorry i was refering to drivers for the "Bluetooth SDIO cards" that were mentioned on the second post of this thread. the WIFI card was an alternative to this.
Guest yves Posted November 23, 2003 Report Posted November 23, 2003 so WiFi SD cards will work on an SPV e100 indeed? what manufacturers have made such cards yet? regards yves
Guest fozzie Posted November 23, 2003 Report Posted November 23, 2003 so WiFi SD cards will work on an SPV e100 indeed? No, they won't because SP2002 doesn't support full SDIO.
Guest morpheus2702 Posted November 23, 2003 Report Posted November 23, 2003 In the latest issue of w@mob (What Mobile): Memory card specialist Sandisk has announced drivers to enable its miniscule Wi-Fi SD card for the latest range of PDAs. Drivers for Windows Mobile 2003 devices can be downloaded from the Sandisk website with drivers for PalmOS 5.0 to follow soon. Maybe there is a way forward?
Guest fozzie Posted November 23, 2003 Report Posted November 23, 2003 In the latest issue of w@mob (What Mobile): Maybe there is a way forward? For SP2002 - No. For SP2003 - possibly.
Guest MECX Posted November 23, 2003 Report Posted November 23, 2003 So if microsoft update the WM2002 ROM with full SDIO support it will be possible.
Guest fozzie Posted November 23, 2003 Report Posted November 23, 2003 So if microsoft update the WM2002 ROM with full SDIO support it will be possible. Why would they bother updating SP2002 when SP2003 has been launched? Can't see it happening (and even if they did, you'd then need the Mobile Operator/Phone manufacturer to update the firmware for the devices). It ain't gonna happen!
Guest MECX Posted November 23, 2003 Report Posted November 23, 2003 sorry from the way you were going on i thought you were saying it wasnt possible--it is possible (although granted not likely) but only because most people want the bluetooth for audio and the jabra has that market sealed. Also if you could buy a bluetooth SD card for the SPV/E100 it would probs be nearly the same price as an upgrade to E200 therefore pointless.
