    Automatically connecting bluetooth serial ports?

    Does anyone know a way to get a bluetooth serial port to automatically connect to the phone when the phone comes in range with Widcomm 4? It's getting annoying as hell when I walk away from the car for PhoCo to lose the connection to the phone, and the only way to get it back is to quit PhoCo, re-connect the serial port manually and restart everything!


    Cheers in advance

    PhoCo is supposed to detect this connection loss and to reconnect but this can take up to 2 minutes. If it doesn't do that, try Alt-I (for Init).

    Any way to force this over the remote interface? I also notice that it doesn't detect that it's actually disconnected either...I'm looking for the <ConnectionLost/> to update the status, but it never comes, and it never gives me a <ConnectionRecovered/> either

    Try a ForceDisconnect instead and wait 15 seconds.

    Garry, I've just checked it and it's working flawless.

    Please get the latest version here: http://phoco.net/tmp/PhoCo_RemoteControl.zip
    I did some changes recently and packed it into a class.

    I'm trying to get my Moto MPX220 working with PhoCo.. When I right click on the BT icon in the systray and choose quick connect > bluetooth serial port > find devices > SmartPhone > Connect it states:

    "Service Bluetooth Serial Port is not found on device SmartPhone"

    Does this mean my MPX220 won't work with PhoCo?

    Phones running on "Windows for Smartphone" do not have a built in modem.

    So, no - they don't work yet.

    Man that totally freaking blows.. I can use it as a modem but I'm guessing thats not the same thing?

    And what do you mean by "yet"? Soon?
