Trouble with the window Bluetooth Phone Operations

[maxime115]

Hi,

I have bought a Belkin Bluetooth Adaptater which works with a Widcomm/Broadcom driver.
The driver name is "Broadcom 2046 Bluetooth 2.1 USB UHE Dongle" version 6.5.0.150, the software is WIDCOMM Bluetooth Software version 6.0.1.6300.

So, I paired my phone with my eeepc (Win7 Pro) but when I double click on my device, I only see this proprieties but no the window "Bluetooth Phone Operations" (this one : http://www.question-defense.com/wp-...7-bluetooth-phone-operations-and-settings.gif )

Therefore, I can't use all functionalities like sync, audio,...

Everybody knows how fix this problem and display this window ?

Thanks in advance for your answers !

Welcome to Seven forums maxime115. Is your phone compatible with a computer? Some are not even though equipped with Blutooth.

Hi,
yes, it is compatible I can use it as modem to connect my computer on the Internet for instance.

I tried to upgrate my software to the version 6.3 and I can right-clic on me device and then select "Control" in bold. But nothing happens. Moreover with this version, my bluetooth dongle stay on when my computer is shutdown...
So, I reinstall the 6.0.

How to know where is the problem ?

 

[Britton30]

I suspect the dongle will have its own power switch? Uninstall the dongle's driver and reboot with it plugged in.

Re,

I find a new driver version and it works perfectly!
However, with this update I have the same problem as before, the dongle's led stay switched on.

I don't think the dongle have its own power switch because before the install, it powers down normally.
Perhaps I have to change an entry in regedit ?

What turns the dongle on?

 

[maxime115]

Nothing, there is no button. It turns on at the same time as the computer.

 

[Britton30]

OK, so it is powered via the USB port? With the computer off, no power, there should be no power for any USB ports either.

 

[maxime115]

Yes, it is powered via the USB port, that's strange...it happens only when my computer is on main current.

It could be a driver issue no?

 

[Britton30]

Yes driver is a possibility. Try unistalling the dongle in Device manager and rebooting with the dongle pluged in.

 

[maxime115]

In this case, the dongle turns off normally But I need this driver...

 

[Britton30]

Follow my steps, a driver should install by itself.

 

[maxime115]

Ok, I didnt care I have to unistall via the devices manager. So I do it, but nothing changes.

I can't really help but but one thought of mine is have you installed the software package that belongs to your phone onto the computer.

I think most phones have software so you can transfer files and photo's between the computer and phone.

 

[maxime115]

I prefer not to install this software (Ovi Suite) because it needs a lot of resources...

 

[Joan Archer]

That may turn out to be the problem as without the software the phone cannot function properly with the computer. I take it it's a Nokia phone ? mine is old so the Ovi suite is not suitable I had to use the previous version and if I don't my phone will not work with the computer.
