Yes I did a search bot ways and even looked though the threads that came up when i was posting. I get the feeling new posts are not realy accepted here so If I need to look on another board just let me know.
I am still trying to get my Bluetooth to work between my Alienware M11xR1 and my AT&T SGSII.
All drivers install but the last two for Bluetooth do not work and come up red and INOP.
I have installed the latests drivers for both but no luck. It will only work using the Laptop as a Bluetooth headphone/micro Phone device. No file transfers or any data. Kies will not work either.
Has anyone else been through this?
The goal is full data sync and file tranfers Via Bluetooth
Thank you for your help
I've been trying to pair my phone to my computer too but failed. I've searched and it seems like samsung did not put out any BT drivers out for out phones. My computer and phone can see each other but was never able to pair up.

Hi again!
Ok, my situation is a bit confusing:
I had a cool Toshiba e310 a year ago. It works fine and connecting to my PC using USB was no problem.
Now I have this wonderful XDA and I was banned to connect it to my System to update some stupid things like SMS-Names !! (whatever)
Windows says: "Ah! Nice an USB device.... [I have Active Sync installed] what about searching for nice drivers... Well cannot find one, so... lets deactivate it...." ??
???
ah-ha.. k. I would say: "Nice to have a good and new hot-PNP device." I really like the XDA but XP is everything but intelligent!
How can I fix this problem? Active Sync tries to find the device but says that there was no connected device. Please check calbel.
Ok, I pulled the cable off and... tada: windows-sound-signal
Pushed it back... tada: Windows says device found... but: No active sync. no connection, no data transfer.
Do anyone have a little driver for me? I have ever handbook, every CDROM and ... well you know what within the original package.
with regards
McNugget
Try updating activesync or removing and then reinstalling if you have the latest version.
Also try a soft reset if you haven't already.
HTH
This problem haunts me, I need to soft resent almost every time.
I'll try that!
ActiveSync should detect the device but I will search for a newer version anyways...
I'll report the results later this day
McNugget
My ActiveSync was too old
It works now!!
Thanks!
Had a similar problem, so switched from using front USB port to back one, and it worked.
Still the same problem if i use the front one.
Not a prob though.
Front usb works with everything else aswell, just strikes me as a little strange... :?
Ok guys, I appear to have jacked up my driver somehow.. I just rooted the other day and am currently on DAS BAMF 2.0 and I plugged in my phone tonight and i get NOTHING through windows when mounted as disk drive... So, what i'm seeing in device manager is this:
ANDROID USB DEVICES - MY HTC (this says drivers are up to date
Down a ways on the list is:
Other Devices with a yellow alarm beside "Android Phone"..
I've tried updating drivers and all kinds of junk with NO luck.. HTC sync doesn't help either.. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it several times..
I'm sure it's something that I screwed up cuz I SUCK but... hopefully the knowledge of you fine people can set me straight!!
I'll be away for a few hours but, will check back ASAP
Thanks A lot to all!

Drag down your notification bar. Change from charge only to internet connection mode. Wait a minute while they download. Change back to charge only.
You should be good after that.
BEST ADVICE EVER, my friend! Thanks! Worked like a charm
Glad to help. This has been a common problem. You might need to repeat that every time you change roms.
Great advice.. Glad I know the scoop now! Thanks again
Hello everyone,
I am a newbie to android, and my first phone on this platform is the S2 .Everything works amazing in this phone except this one thing that is bothering me a lot. I am not able to send ANY files from my phone to another phone nor to my laptop and vice versa through bluetooth. I had put in 4 songs through bluetooh using my laptop onto my phone and that's the last I've seen on bluetooth on my phone. Tried restarting. Nothing worked. The laptop pairs though. I might be needing an elaborate answer because I am newbie to the platform.
Thanks a lot.

Did you recently install updates, drivers, new hardware, and/or programs on your laptop? Or even your Phone? You can also try restarting both devices and try wiping your phone (backup first!), you can also try to install special drivers for your phone's bluetooth on your laptop (if applicable!)
Did you check if Bluetooth on your phone works right if using it to connect to a loudspeaker or an headphone?
Otherwise try to remove the pairing towards your laptop and re-pair it.

Hey, when I activated BT on my computer (W8) and my phone, and I make a scan trough my phone, it doesn't detect my computer! Idk if the problem come from my phone or my computer. Thx
Oh come on, surely you can work out the obvious answer without creating a new thread here?
Why act like this? I searched in the forum but didn't find. Can someone help me thanks.

Hey guys.
I'm hoping you can shed a little light here as i'm starting to get frustrated.. Now i've seen various similar threads along the same lines so it's obviously a common problem and anyone who's offered a suggestion to the fix on other threads, i've tried to no avail..
I've had a DHD prior to this and done the whole rooting/ROM'ing thing regularly so quite used to procedures and what to do, but that was slightly different as i did it via the advanced hack kit.. This phone doesn't seem as straightforward to do. But about 3 weeks ago i bit the bullet and unlocked my phone with the intention of rooting and ROM'ing soon after.. Everything went well and the phone has been working perfectly, no issues at all and i've activated the developer option aswell and it's USB debugged box is ticked...
However, a couple of days ago i tried plugging it in to the laptop to transfer some music onto it, but both the two USB 2.0 ports on the right don't recognise it, i get the USB device not recognised message, anything else works fine in them, the only remaining port, a USB 3.0 on the left sees the phone and does allow me to access it, sometimes i can see everything straight away, sometimes i get a blank box and have to wait and the green bar takes ages to load along the bar at the top.. I've even had what appeared to be arabic symbols at one point where it should say Internal storage.. That confused me very much!! But now it won't let me transfer anything other than a single image file to the root. I did this as a test.. It transferred it straight away with no problems, but if i try adding anything else after that, it just hangs on the copying dialog box and either i have to close it or it does it for me a couple of minutes later with the "can't copy file" and "skip this file" options.. I've also tried it on the home computer which works fine but still leaves me with the same problem. Both are Win7 64bit.
I've uninstalled everything HTC from my laptop, uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers supplied in the fastboot folder which i was told to download for the unlocking process.. Now, i don't want to have to download HTC Sync as i don't want to access my phone via that, i'd rather just use file explorer and ditch the bloatware.. I'm not sure if i'm running the correct drivers and this is the problem, but i can't seem to find them anywhere.. P.S. I'm in the UK so this is the international version..
Any help would be great as i'm tearing my hair out... I know it's probably something simple but it's refusing to work..
Hey i hope this helps

Olrite so i guess you are dealing with the same i dealt with a while ago when i was on cayanogen mod 11 on my HTC one M7 International ... there are many alternatives to transfer stuff from phone to Laptop but first lets talk about the normal one
Method 1 which you should try is ....
* Download the HTC sync manager .. its ok if you dont wanna use it to transfer data .. just install it ...
* ok so now the important one .. make sure you have window media player installed on your computer ....
okay so why windows media player ??
Well it contains all the MTP drivers you need to connect your phone to your pc ...
* you can restart your system now .. (Optional)
* now connect your device with debugging on ... grab the notification bar click on USB related notification .. and choose MTP or something like that ...i mean don't choose HTC sync manger .. choose the other one
* Now if everything went well you will se your storage in My computer ... and in Windows media player too...
Method 2....
Well if nothing works then download an app called Air Droid ...
it have some nice functionality ...
you will get to know how to use it after installing it ...
by chance if the local link given in the app does not works make a hotspot .. connect your computer to it and open a browser like chrome .. and go to 192.168.1.1:8888
Note : port 8888 is pre configured in the app so if you changed it .. use the dirrent port you used ..
If you are not laptop is not connected with your phone's hotspot then your phone and computer should be on the same network ..
Good luck ... hit thanks if it works just to let me know

Firstly, thank you for taking the time to run through the options.. I really appreciate that.. Unfortunately it seems nothing in terms of transfer via USB works (at least with this cable, it's the only one i have so can't try another at this point) on this phone anymore, i don't know why the sudden glitches, it's been working fine since i've had it but just decided to stop connecting this last couple of days, so whether that's down to drivers or the cable being dodgy etc i have no idea, but the Air droid app works beautifully and i can now transfer anything and everything, it has such a great UI too so thank you for pointing me in the direction of that.. Without it, and you, i'd still be stuck.. So i guess i no longer need to worry about cables or drivers anymore so thanks again!
Pleasure
