I have a Lobster with Windows Vista (Mobile Device Center 6.1)
Should it be possible by default (or is it possible at all) to surf the internet via Bluetooth / USB cable rather than GPRS?
I can Sync via Bluetooth fine.
Thanks for your help!
browsing via bluetooth or usb
You may have already got this working, but I only just saw your post.
The answer is yes, if your active-sync works actually the USB connection should connect you to the internet through the PC. Bluetooth is a bit more difficult since Microsoft has never understood bluetooth properly (compare with the Nokia PC suite where it takes about 2 clicks to set up!). Anyway after an hour or so of frustration I was able to browse over b/t on my Lobster.
Just for fun I installed Fring and was also able to use Skype and SIP the
same way.
Now just need to unlock the phone!
Good luck.
Mike.
Hi everybody,
i'm trying to sync my hermes with my laptop using windows mobile device Center (6.1) via bluetooth connection.
I have the Shaps 4.31 Full rom on my hermes.
When i try to pair vista and the hermes, Vista asks me for a bluetooth peripheral device driver.
Does anyone knows, where i can get that?
thx in advance,
Shirkan
Are you talking about the dialog in Windows stating bluetooth driver?
How are you transmitting on Windows Vista side?
I have paired the phone with my laptop but am getting 3 items that refuse to install for BT to work properly. No amount of troubleshooting will fix it.
It is referring to the PAN and BT Peripheral Device drivers.
" Bluetooth not completely working..."??
How come the bluetooth starts to work partially...??
anyways... guessing by your problem.... try to pair it with another phone or another device....it if works...try stopping the firewall in your PC...
if it doesn't...then let us know what have you done with your phone before..
I think I have the same problem with windows 7 64 bit.
same problem here with my windows 7 64 bit laptop.
did not work on my win7/ubuntu 11.10 X200T thinkpad.
then I installed bluetooth file transfer app - and it works when I boot in ubuntu.
probably works with win7 too, I just can't be bothered to restart my notebook under win7

Try googling. There should be solutions.
I bought a bluetooth dongle on Amazon (ORICO BTA 403, CSR8510 A10 chipset) and installed it on my Windows 7 x64 computer.
The dongle installs fine and works perfectly with all my older phones but not with my Xperia S running Android 4.1.2.
Basically, if I install the automatic windows driver, and pair with the phone, windows complains about no drivers for the device, and I can't do anything with it.
If I install the supplied software (CSR Harmony wireless software stack) I can pair and the Xperia S is installed properly, the various audio services work (I can stream music to PC using BT), but I still can't send or receive files, either from PC to Phone or from Phone to PC.
The connection times out after a second and gives me a connectivity error. It's like the phone refuses to connect to the PC, both when transferring and receiving.
I don't know if the phone is the problem, it seems to not work only when doing file transfers with PC, if I try to transfer files to other phones or to my mac (which has built in BT) it works fine.
Is there any way to fix this issue? Any way to troubleshoot this issue to tell if the problem comes from the phone or the dongle?
Searching with google I can't find any solution, I just get lost into a sea of bluetooth problems which have nothing to do with what I'm experiencing.
By the way, using Airdroid instead of BT is not a fix.

I just purchased a similar BT usb dongle to use with my Windows7 32bit laptop, model name/number BTA-CSR4B5 Inateck USB Bluetooth 4.0 Low Energy USB Adapter USB 2.0 Wireless Bluetooth Adapter with LED Indicator For PC Desktop Computer Laptop Notebook, Compatible with Windows XP/ Vista/ 7/ 8 & Bluetooth 3.0/ 2.0, Support Bluetooth Stereo.
I want to use it for streaming audio to my headphones, I have successfully installed application/drivers with no problems then plug in dongle which searched & installed from windows more drivers which in compatibility mode and run as administrator installed ok, but then when i pair my BT headphones again auto search tries to find & install more drivers but always fails so i cannot get audio connection from laptop to BT HP's although there is a BT connection between dongle & HP's, I have tried another pair of BT HP's but get the same problem. any help from any1 most appreciated. BTW how did u get on with your problem?

your problem is bare and I think you can try these two solutions out:
1- Restart your phone and check whether your problem has solved or not. 2- Restart your windows and also turn off your Antivirus and firewall and try again.

1.Its not a phone its Headphones. 2.Restart made no difference plus Antivirus/firewall not the cause, seems to be a driver problem when installing from windows update! Ta all the same.
The problem is ****ty drivers from the manufacturer. I installed Bluesoleil and it worked perfectly. Another solution is to use the Windows stack by manually installing drivers from the MS Windows Mobile Suite (or whatever it's called, I don't remember) but that only supports file transfer.
