    Bluetooth Devices (Widcomm)


    Just to tell that the Widcomm 5.1 provided on a link on this forum, does work fine and install very well through Windows Update for most of the bluetooth drivers...

    Version on my Original CD Install is around 4.1 or 4.3 dated 2003, have an issue with tray control (windows pops up every time) and is buggy.

    I'm with a PCMCIA Bluetooth TDK PC Card Type II, to transfert files and pictures with OBEX from a 3rd S60 platform mobile phone.

    I didn't wanted to install a PC suite, just basic transfert from Phone to PC.

    Widcomm 5.1 suit most of the bluetooth devices known by now.


    I was looking back yesterday the post for the link and couldn't find it back. Orbital Shark may you have the link?

    The purpose of this new thread.

    Thanks.

    Have you tried the following:

    Broadcom Corporation - Bluetooth Software Download

    Using the Broadcom updater I managed to get a very recent version installed:

    Bluetooth (WIDCOMM) driver v.6.2.0.8900 (22/04/2009) for Win7

    The updater should work with all Broadcom based BT chipsets...

    If WIDCOMM v.5.1 worked for you this might too...

    Well i'll try that broadcomm later on another build (7201).

    It is true the Widcomm 5.1 is an already 2006 dated.

    But it doubt my TDK Pc Card II accept the broadcomm chipsets, as it was provided with widcomm CD install.

    Thanks.:)
