I have been trying to get my G Tablet to connect to my computers (Windows 7 x64 and OSX 10.4.11) without success. I managed to PAIR the tablet with the computers, but I can never get them to CONNECT. After I hit the connect button, nothing happens. I want to bluetooth to transfer files wirelessly, or even stream music and share internet connections.
By the way, I am running CyanogenMod 7.0.2.

I was able to send a file from my linux desktop to the gtab... the linux box sees it as a "phone" profile, which might mean it only has a limited set of bluetooth services installed.
Wanted to bring this back up as I am having the same issues, connecting with my HTC Thunderbolt. Pairs with everything, but doesn't connect. Kind of a shame when I need BT to tether. Anyone find a fix yet?
Just got a Galaxy S3 a few days ago, everything was going fine. Transferring music to my phone from my MacBook Pro using Android File Transfer. Half way through the app stops transferring and I have to force quit on my laptop. Now when I reattach my usb cable I get the following message: "No Android device found Please connect your Android device with a USB cable to get started" My cable is connected, my phone is charging, but the phone is not showing that it is connected (no usb in notifications, can't choose between MTP/PTP...) So I can't continue to transfer my music I restarted both my MacBook Pro and phone. I tried to see if its my phone by connecting to my dock in my car and everything works fine, my Car Home Ultra app opens and works fine. HELP please. How can I get my phone to recognize my cpu via USB? It was working fine, but now nothing other than charging. I read on another thread too toggle USB debugging in developer options, tried both to no avail. Help please, I am an Android noob.
So i downloaded DJ Control ,its great and very good i use it over WI-FI but i was thinking, is there a way to use it over usb , because in school we have music on breaks and i would like to connect my phone to that pc and use app with it but WI-FI is locked,so i want over usb
Someone can help me connect it over usb?
anyone?
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.

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.
I'm using my Sony Xperia Z1s for this (on 4.4.4). I'm connected to a neighbor's wifi (with permission of course) on my PC via a Netgear wireless USB adaptor. I am attempting to use DroidCam as I don't have a proper webcam, so I can use my Sony as a webcam and skype on the desktop (Win7). The problem arises when I connect my android (via usb) to the desktop, as within a few minutes, the wifi will always fail (full signal bars, yellow exclamation triangle). Doesn't matter whether the android is in MTP mode or MSC mode, or whether or not debugging is enabled (though, it must be enabled for DroidCam to connect). It's as if the android's usb connection is interfering with the Netgear's usb connection. Why is this, and how can I attempt to fix this?
EDIT: Before you ask why I don't simply skype via the app, the wifi connection is not strong enough for my android, the Netgear produces a stronger connection on the desktop. I attempted to use USB Tunnel so I could connect the android to the PC and use the wifi signal that the Netgear is grabbing on my android, but..... again..... connection issues.
