Connecting ovi using bluetooth win7 64x on nokia 5...

Dear All,
I'm was desperately trying to connect my nokia 5230 using bluetooth and as i struggeled a bit i thought i'd just as well share what to do... (in my case at least)
I have Win7 x64 with "Bluetooth Stack for windows by Toshiba" - v7.00.11
Check this by viewing the "info" of the software that came with your bluetooth adaptor (bluetooth tray icon - info)
system requirements: http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/nokia-ovi-suite/compatibility-and-download (don't forget to click the "View full system requirements"
bluetooth settings on the nokia are active etc... all should be good
when i try to connect from my phone to my laptop:
bluetooth : on
my phone's visibility: shown to all
laptop shows as available device
error message: pairing device with laptop: unable to pair with ...
when i try to connect from my laptop to my phone (by adding a new connectiong using bluetooth adaptor software)
phone shows as available device
error message: detection of service has failed
when i try to connect from my laptop to my phone (by adding a new device using Ovi)
error again...
Solution: change some default settings in the bluetooth adaptor sofware
search the options for "security" and manually check the box "forced security connection level (verification and encryption)" (or something like that, mine is in dutch)
I then easily connected the devices using ovi. (ps: this doesn't work when the adaptor is already in use so make sure to close any windows open from previous attempts like with the bluetooth adaptor software)
A lot of connections attempts are made to the phone so just keep accepting them and after a while the ovi software will indicate the devices are connected.
you'll see the laptop appear as a paired device on your nokia 5230, make sure to set it as "authorised"
ps: i also had to search a bit to find the "paired devices" so on your nokia 5230...
press the white central button to go to the options menu
select settings
select connectivity
select bluetooth
select the central icon at the top of the screen
you should be in the "paired devices" section now
select the device you want to connect too & set as authorised
(you can also initiate a new paired device from this menu...)
Greetings,
Manuel

Similar issue faced by me as well..  not all the tracks was transferred on the first sync.. so I manually copied them to device. But tried the second time, this time I deleted all the songs in device and transferred using Ovi suite, surprisingly it worked this time
Helpful information, then dont forget to hit the kudos star :-) Or say it accepted solution and thanks

  • Unable to connect internet using Bluetooth in my E...

    Hi
    Iam using Nokia E5.
    Iam able to connect to mobile internet to laptop using USB connection,while using bluetooth for connceting internet iam getting below error.
    "failed to connect to network.the modem is in use by another application ormay not be configured properly"
    please advise how to over come this.

    Same problem here with E72...well in 75% of cases, sometimes it connect easily, which make me believe the settings are correct.
    Any news here? Does the problem lie with the computer or with the phone? Sometimes, but usually not, restarting one or both device helps.
    Thanks,

  • IPad2 can't connect ipod2 using bluetooth

    IPad2 can't connect ipod2 using bluetooth
    why? Can anyone tell the reason?

    For what purpose are you trying to connect the two?
    Bluetooth between iOS devices is limited to only specific peer-to-peer apps for specific functions (like mutiplayer games).
    You cannot just pair the devices, you need an app that specifically uses Bluetooth for communication.

  • How do I connect printer using bluetooth

    What do I need to do to my printer so I can use bluetooth to make a wireless connection. I saw a bluetooth device that plugs into the usb plug on the printer, is that all there is to it.
    Thanks

    The Bluetooth profile HCRP is :
    HCRP (hardcopy cable replacement profile). This profile allows the transfer of rendered data between Bluetooth-enabled devices, such as between a laptop and a printer. It is assumed that the client device (in this case, the laptop) will include a driver that renders the data. Note that Mac OS X supports Bluetooth printing through the Mac OS X printing API.
    (from the Apple Bluetooth Device Access Guide )
    To have the HCRP profile, you'll need to have Bluetooth software 1.5, or later. I'm running OSX 10.2.8 and ASAIK I have Bluetooth 1.3.2, so I don't have the HCRP profile.
    You can use the Bluetooth Setup Assistant in /Applications/Utilities to configure your Bluetooth device, once the device is within range.
    To sum up, whether the Bluetooth adapter in the link will work for you depends on the OSX version you're running on your G4. I would guess if you're running Panther, or Tiger, you'll probably have HCRP.
    Sorry I can't be of more help.

    :confused:
    I will appreciate a brief reply how to fix this problem.
    Thanks

    This is possible
    because you will get streams for both data in and out...
    but the problem is that the j2me player is not always streaming supported.
    Since your server is mobile for streaming you have to implement a streaming server on ur server mobile.
    but you can play the whole video chunk by chunk... in many fashion...

  • Nokia OVI keeps bluetooth connection active

    Hi. I recently switched from PC suite to the new OVI suite. This new application keeps the bluetooth connection to the phone active from the moment that you connect to the phone. With PC suite there was only a connection active during communciation. The result is that OVI is communicating with my phone continuously, thus consuming a lot of battery power constantly. I have switched off all automatic sync options. Does anyone know how to stop this continuous bluetooth connection? Thanks in advance. With kind regards, Ron. Nokia Ovi Suite 2.0.2.42 PC Connectivity Solution 9.45.0.0 Connectivity Cable Driver 7.1.23.0 Nokia Ovi Suite Software Updater 2009.40.0.60128 Maps Service API 3.0.38.0 Nokia mPlatform 2.6.40 Ovi Desktop Sync Engine 1.1.0.77 Operating system: Microsoft Windows XP 32-bit Edition, Service Pack 3 Language: English Detected internet browsers: - Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0.5730.13 Detected Bluetooth stacks: - Microsoft (Version: 5.1.2600, Build: 5512) - IVT BlueSoleil (Version: 2.7.0, Build: 8)

    Being a lazy user of Nokia PC Suite (let others go to the Bleeding Edge, don't try and do difficult functions, use it only for basic phone security, ...), I was happily bumbling along, backing up my Contacts, Calendar etc., without a care in the world.  Then along comes a 'new and better' version of PC Suite and without much thought I install it and trash the previous version install files.  And guess what?  The ***bleep*** new version fails to do backup of the Contacts file (just hangs forever). Any bug-fixing or other quick correction for PC Suite now looks unlikely, especially given comments here about Ovi becoming the only Nokia-supported option (even if actually support is patchy or non-existent).
    So, looking for pain-free (or at least pain-reduced) alternatives, I investigate Ovi.  And one of the first comments I see says that it's a reduced-function form of PC Suite!  And PC Suite doesn't work properly anyway!!
    And oh look!  Ovi may not actually support my phone (6600 Slide) and according to this thread is misuses Bluetooth to the point of draining the phone battery even if no useful activity is in progress.   Give me strength!!!  Why release ANOTHER pile of , when judging by the LONG list of problems here, there has been no success making its predecessor work properly?

  • Ad Hoc connection using Bluetooth

    Hi,
    Is it possible to create a Ad Hoc connection using a Bluetooth Dongle, I have no idea about Ad Hoc & Infrastructure Modes, So can anybody tell me if it is possible to create Ad Hoc wireless connection using Bluetooth Dongle ?
    I wanted to use WLAN in my Nokia N96, I don't have a Wireless Router. I have read a few articles about Ad Hoc connections, What I assume is..A WLAN connection can be created without a WiFi Router. Is it possible ?  If "yes" can anybody tell me the steps ?
    Thanks & Regards
      Sujay Kumar

    If you have a wired (LAN) accesspoint you can set up a Internet Connection Sharing with a PC or laptop and your phone. They both need WLAN. Look at this setup for XP.
