Skype Pocket PC on IPAQ 5450
Published Wednesday, November 16, 2005 by Miss_PSX | E-mail this post
I recently purchased a PDA from ebay IPAQ 5450, It has built in Wireless and bluetooth, I downloaded the latest version of Skype PPC, the minimum requirements for Skype Pocket pc are
Windows Mobile 2003 for Pocket PC
400 MHz processor
WiFi-enabled
I installed it everything went smoothly no problem, i logged in with current skype account and made a test call, Worked a treat!
The volume level on the IPAQ's are not very loud so headphones worked better with conversations, it does have a built in microphone
and the other caller could hear me clearly with no distortion. I decided to try out my Bluetooth headset, I checked the services available on
bluetooth, nothing listed for headsets, i scanned the internet for information regarding bluetooth and the IPAQ 5450, It turns out bluetooth
headsets service is supported but not implemented without a registry tweak.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Widcomm\BtConfig\Services\0005\Enabledchange the value from 0 to 1. This should allow it to work
If you have the same like me the headset icon came up in services but no sound to the bluetooth headset i then had to edit the registry again
HKLM/DRIVERS/BuiltIn/wavedevchange the wavedev.dll into btceif.dll
