Dell :: M4400/Win7x64/Bluetooth Crashing W/ BT Headset
Dec 23, 2009I have a Motorola BT stereo headset....it connects fine, but shortly after streaming audio, whether Hulu, Music or Gaming....
maybe after 3 minutes, the entire BT system crashes, icon disappears and sound returns to notebook speakers. The only way to get BT back is a COLD boot.
I've tried cleaning removing and reinstalling all BT drivers to the same result.
Any clues anyone? I've read about some Win7 'quirk' w/ Bluetooth but don't know much about it ....

Jan 3, 2009I would like an all inclusive iphone headset that also works well for movies and games on a pc. I do not care about size, but i dont want anything to bassy or cheap sounding. I have given up on apples products, the standard iphone headset breaks way too easily on me. (THE REMOTE PART). I was also wondering where all the new headsets (the iphone one with volume control, and the high end one) are that they said would be released.

Apr 7, 2009I have Dell Bluetooth keyboard and Dell Bluetooth Mouse connected to my Dell Latitude E6400 laptop (with Dell 410 Bluetooth card in it).
Everythign was workign fine until I got the Dell BH200 Bluetooth headset. Now when the BH200 is connected the keyboard multiplies keystrokes: when a key is pressed after a pause in using the keyboard this key will be repeated exactly 6 times.
For example, when I listen to music and browse the internet, using the mouse only and then I need to type something on the keyboard, the first key I press will be repeated 6 times. After that everything will be back to normal until another pause. The mouse also behaves a bit wrong with the BH200 in use: when touched after a pause its cursor will move randomly but it will get back in order in a second or so.

HP Envy 14-1111 Audio :: Headset Microphone Does Not Work
Apr 25, 2013I have an HP Envy 14-1111 nr notebook with Windows 7, and I have always had problems with microphones working. I plug in my headset and put the plugs into the correct ports, including putting the Mic plug into the port with a picture of a headset/mic. I also put the audio plug into the correct port.
Â
The audio always works fine- I can hear things properly coming from the headphones. But the mic NEVER WORKS. I've made sure that the mic is enabled, and I've set the headset mic as the default recording device, and made sure it's not muted, and even tried like 3 different types of headsets, but it still doesn't work.
Â
My computer recognizes that my headset has a mic when I plug it in, because the independent headset microphone pops up on my recording devices. But no matter how much noise I make into the mic, my computer doesn't recognize any of it. It is basically saying that it can't detect any sound from the mic.
Acer Aspire R7-572G :: Only Use Microphone On 4-pin 3.5mm Headset Output
Sep 16, 2014I own an Acer Aspire R7-572G which has a combined 4-pin 3.5mm headset jack.
Â
I would like to use a normal microphone with an 3.5mm connector. The microphone did not work by directly plugging the connector into the socket, therefore I bought an adapter which splits the 4-pin output into speaker & microphone sockets.
Â
Now the microphone does work properly, however, unless I am connecting external speakers I am not able to use the internal notebook speakers. (maybe because the notebook assumes that a headset is plugged in)
Â
>>> Is there a way to use my external microphone and the internal notebook speakers?
Â
One more thing to mention: If I plug in the cable, a popup on the notebook appears asking which device I just plugged in. Sadly my only three options are "headphones", "speaker output" or "headset". NO MICROPHONE OPTION !!!

I checked Smartaudio settings setted on headset option on configuration of conector and neither of theese microphone was working so I set back default.

Jul 21, 2014On my W510, I would like to set the volume on the internal speakers to "mute" while setting a different volume on the headset jack, in windows 7
Â
This is so the laptop will not play any sound when the headset is unplugged, but work normally when headset is plugged in.
Â
Normally I can find 2 different audio devices in windows, and control them separately.
Â
Does the thinkpad support this? Â Do i need special drivers?
HP DV7T-4100 Audio :: No Sound At All - With Built In Speakers / Headset Or Using HDMI Connection To TV
Jun 11, 2014DV7T-4100 w/Intel i5 M460 processor
Product ID: WW189AV
Windows 7 (64 bit) Home Premium
Â
My laptop has no sound at all - built in speakers, earbuds, not even when connected to my TV using the HDMI port (which is a separate driver).
Â
2 weeks ago all sound was working. I was watching (and listening) youtube videos using my earbuds. I stopped a video and left my laptop unused until the next day. There were no installs or updates applied that I am aware of. The next day I closed Youtube and played words with friends and there was no sound. I restarted the laptop and still no sound.
Â
I have read and worked through many processes and fixes found on this and other forums but have been unable to get sound working. I also attempted to restore my laptop back to prior to this issie but my restore points fail (corrupted).
Â
Drivers: Both drivers are present and state they are working properly - they are current versions
ATI high definition Audio Device  Date  5/6/2010   Ver  7.11.0.7706
IDT High Definition Audio Codec  Date  6/17/2010  Ver  6.10.6289.0
Â
I have uninstalled (checked delete the driver software for this device) and reinstalled multiple times.
I have uninstalled, shutdown, removed power and battery, held power button for 30 seconds, then repowered and let the drivers reinstall (they automatically installed upon boot  I was not able to run the sp50642.exe that I downloaded).
Â
I also used the HP Recovery tool and reinstalled the drivers to factory default
Â
I have run Microsofts problem finder and it reports all is working.
I have verified there are no settings muted or disabled. When I test the speakers from"Sound and Headphones" Properties, I get "Failed to play test tone".
Â
FYI - I have not done an update to the BIOS but I checked and mine is the updated version F.29 but the date is 14 days older then the downloadable SP55299 version.

Apple :: New Bluetooth Aluminum Keyboard
May 3, 2010I finally got rid of my 3 batteries BT apple keyboard, which I enjoyed using when it worked, but it was so unreliable. It would drain batteries fast, go out of sync, take forever to come back from sleep. Apple replaced it once.
Now I was wondering if the new one with 2 batteries is any better. I am very skeptic, to say the least to purchase this new one, there are complaints all over the place Apple - Support - Discussions - Apple Wireless Keyboard Eating Batteries ... and not only about the battery drain but also connectivity. I am having second thoughts about BT reliability in general.
What's your experience with this new keyboard? if there a similar keyboard by another manufacturer? I need something with keys that require very little pressure since I have tendinitis.
Apple :: Bluetooth On Macbook Alu 13"
Apr 13, 2009I had a weird problem yesterday on my macbook bluetooth; after cold start-up, the bluetooth was already activated but it did not connect to the Microsoft 5000 mouse. I thought that it was the mouse (empty batteries) but it was instead something weird with bluetooth as, after deactivating bluetooth, it never wanted to reactivate back....
Moreover I tried to remove the mouse installation but this jammed the system preferences....
After forcing the s/d of the system preferences, I decided to s/d the mac but the rotating spin, before s/d, remained for a long time and I was obliged to s/d macbook with the power button (I am quite sure that the HDD was not spinning at that moment).
3 questions:
1- did a similar problem (random) with bluetooth activation or devices happen to you too? (I read about some people reporting bad experiences on macbook alu bluetooth too but maybe worse than mine). It is working OK now but I am watching it closely....
2- Is there any risk that I damaged something by shutting the mac down via the power button after about >3min of rotating spin? I made afterwards a check of the disc (with Apple disc utility and with Onyx) and everything was OK for both utility disc and Onyx...
3- Is there something more I should do for checking that I did not damage anything?
Apple :: IPhone 3.0 - Getting Connect Via Bluetooth To My Mb
Jun 18, 2009I gave it a whirl and it works like a charm here in France using Orange.
Here's the speed test results.
I had some trouble getting my iphone to connect via bluetooth to my mb, so this test was done via usb.
Will work out the bluetooth problem later, but for now its a nice backup for when no wi-fi is about.
No hacking/jailbreaking is required, yet I'm not quite sure how legal it all is so if the mods find this topic out of order feel free to delete.
Apple :: Bluetooth Mouse Scroll-wheel Does Not Work In Boot Camp
Aug 25, 2009I have a MacBook Pro (MBP) with OSX 10.5.6. I use Logitech Bluetooth (BT) mouse and it works OK under OSX.
However, in Boot Camp running Windows XP SP2, the scroll wheel does not work. Everything else, like left and right buttons work. I tried it with another BT mouse and it's the same thing.
If I tried using regular wireless mouse, everything works.
Acer :: 1810T: How Do I Disable Power Management On Bluetooth; Keep Bluetooth Fully Powered
Feb 8, 2010My Bluetooth keyboard goes to sleep after a period of idle and it takes 15 seconds for the Acer Aspire 1810T to wake up and notice the Bluetooth keypresses.
However, I found out my Bluetooth keyboard works reliably when I have a second Bluetooth device connected and active at the time (such as either a headset or bluetooth tethering to a cellphone as modem), the computer doesn't have a 15 second lag in noticing the Bluetooth keyboard again - the keyboard works almost right away even after being unused for sometime.
So that means the culprit is in the power management on the Acer Bluetooth module. Is there a way to force the Bluetooth module to never go to sleep? Any checkbox somewhere, a register setting? Even going as far to purchase a different Bluetooth driver? Or any other option? Sometimes the sleep is useful, but it definitely isn't useful with the Bluetooth keyboard. This problem does not happen if I use an external Bluetooth dongle.
(With BatteryBar Pro, I notice that power consumption falls suddenly whenever the Bluetooth module goes to sleep when the keyboard goes idle for more than 30 seconds, and at this point, it has difficulty 'waking up' when I start typing on the Bluetooth keyboard. But the problem also still happens when the laptop is plugged in!)

Acer :: How To Enable Bluetooth On D150 Without External Bluetooth Button Under LED
Aug 12, 2009I have finally tested the Acer Empowering Technology software on my Acer D150.
Great news, the software works to enable/disable the Bluetooth module on the netbook without physically pressing the button. This is great for people like me that do not have the button on top to push the button inside. There are two software needed for people to get this running on the D150. First is the required “Acer Empowering Framework” software and the second is the “Acer ePower Management.” Once both software are installed on the system, the setting to enable/disable the Bluetooth module is in the ePower Management.
Power profiles within windows will probably be reset to default, so those would have to be readjusted if a user changed them. I am actually running Windows Vista on my Acer D150 with the Acer Empowering Technology software for Vista. I am not 100% sure if the software will also work on XP, but from the notebookreview forums, I believe it should work just as fine (but more options on other Empowering Technology software).
(in XP, the driver also works, but need XP edition, not vista editon).
Dell :: Bluetooth Disappears After Standby. Vista + Bluetooth 370.
Jul 19, 2009I noticed a few other threads around the internet about this issue, but couldnt find a definitive answer on how to get it fixed, so I thought I would try it here.
The problem is that when I go into standby and wake from it, my bluetooth icon disappears and bluetooth doesnt work.
I have a Dell Studio XPS 13 running Vista 64 with the Dell bluetooth 370 minicard. Ive tried using the generic windows bluetooth drivers as well as Dell's drivers.
Nothing appears in device manager as well. I have to manually go into bluetooth settings, disable the device, then re-enable it.
Dell :: Bluetooth 365/370 Modules Failing-multiple Platform,multiple Bluetooth Versions
Apr 17, 2010I have need to use Bluetooth stereo audio functionality (A2DP profile) almost exclusively when I use my laptop.
I had owned a M1330 with the Dell 355 Bluetooth Module for several years without issue. Last November, I decided to upgrade and purchased an M15x (laptop #1) with the Dell 370 Bluetooth module included,running Windows 7 x64 Ultimate. Not more than one day out of the box,the 370 module failed while watching a movie. It literally disappeared from device manager and no uninstalling/reinstallation of drivers alleviated the situation. The only way to get the radio to be recognized by the operating system was, and is, to shutdown,reboot into bios,disable the card in bios,reboot into windows,restart,boot into bios,enable the card and then reboot into Windows. The card would then work for awhile but eventually fail again. The module works for short periods of time but if put under an extended load,fails. That and other issues with the M15x caused me to return it.
Contacted Dell and returned the M15x and bought and built a Studio XPS 1645 (laptop #2) to replace it. Received the unit and literally within the 1st few hours,the 370 module failed exactly like the M15x.I thought o.k. a bad card and had tech support send out a new module for the XPS 1645. Received and installed it and the exact same problem happened. Failed when under an extended load. Again called tech support and was then dispatched an onsite tech to replace the entire motherboard and card. No resolution-card failed again. Spoke with a resolution specialist and returned it and again purchased a M15x (laptop #3-really liked the M15x over the XPS 1645)
Received the M15x-Bluetooth failure again. At this point, was considering dropping Dell altogether but thought I'd try the Studio 1558 (laptop #4) with the Bluetooth 365 module, in order to rule out the 370 card, first. Ordered and was delivered on the 5th of April, same exact issue-failure of card under a load. I am returning this defective Studio 1558 and again getting a M15x (laptop #5). I realize that the M15x Bluetooth card will fail again-in fact,am 100% sure it will fail,but have bought a Sony Bluetooth transmitter as a workaround.
What appears to be happening is that the card will shutdown when it gets warm.This is either a Broadcom manufacturing defect or a Dell engineering issue. I know now through personal experience that there is a serious issue with Dell Bluetooth cards.
If this was happening with only one laptop, I'd be ok with it but, this is occuring across multiple laptop platforms, with both Broadcom Bluetooth cards that Dell brands and sells.
This is either an oversight by engineering-maybe they didn't test the card under a heavy load, or Dell is knowingly selling defective equipment.
Dell :: Bluetooth
Oct 28, 2008I have experienced a strane problem with bluetooth. Generally it works fine, but sometimes when I connect some some kind of device (Nokia 6300 phone) and after some time turn off bluetooth(the switch on the right side) without turning of bluetooth in the phone, the whole BT module in Vista just hangs. The BT icon is available but no BT adapter is found (the system does not recognize the Dell Bluetooth Module) and it does not help to turn on and off for few times. But the worst is the fact, that after the BT maodule hangs i cannot turn off or suspend the computer. It just hangs at the Shutting down screen forever the only thing I can do is to turn it off by holding power button for longer time... When I first disconnet all BT devices and then turn off the BT module everything's OK and no other problems occur. Is this a driver or hardware issue ?
I have XPS M1530 with Vista SP1 (all updates applyed)

Oct 4, 2009First of all i apologize for my bad english... i'm german .
i'm new to this forum and got problems with my Dell bluetooth 370 card.
i somehow managed to software disable my bluetooth card before completely formatting my HDD.
now after installing windows 7 i'm desperately trying to install the bluetooth drivers. no success. it always says "Press fn+f2 to aktivate bluetooth" but that won't work. the hardware switch is ON and i tried a few other things like resetting the bios to factory settings, removing bluetoothcard and installing windows 7 without it (reinstalled it afterwards).
i also tried this file http://support.euro.dell.com/support...&fileid=213714 (R159805) but it won't work for my bluetoothcard saying "no capable devices found".
Dell :: No Bluetooth 1645
Mar 28, 2010All of the sudden, bluetooth stopped working on my laptop.
I installed the Dell driver when I first got the computer and everything was going fine. I was listening to music through some blue-tooth headphones this morning, when suddenly they unpaired.
Now, the BT light is on on the front of the computer, but the icon disappeared from the task bar. I tried reinstalling the driver, but got hung up when it asked to turn on blue-tooth with wireless button. The button doesn't do anything for turning on/off bluetooth that I can tell.
So now I'm stuck.
In Device Manager, there is no bluetooth 370 card. But I do have errors in the USB category and the "other devices" category.
