GT70-2OC bluetooth problems

I can't get Bluetooth to work properly under Windows 8.1.
Unfortunately I upgraded to 8.1 immediately and don't know if it ever worked under Windows 8.
I have tried the latest available drivers from available from MSI, and also the latest "killer" drivers.
I have the latest SCM but also tried with the version installed as default (not sure what it was).
Initially with whatever was loaded from factory the Bluetooth was off when starting.
Using SCM to turn it on didn't work, it either did nothing or started an endless toggling of Bluetooth on/off with the icon appearing and disappearing.
I upgraded to latest SCM, no change.
I upgraded to latest MSI drivers, no change.
I uninstalled everything and installed SCM and MSI drivers, no change.
I uninstalled everything and installed SCM and "killer" drivers from Qualcomm, IT WORKED. But only until the next reboot.
Now I can't get it to work no matter what. SCM says BT is on but it's not.

I reinstalled the MSI drivers and it started to work, for about 4 hours, and then bluetooth just died.
Cannot turn it on via SCM.

GT70-2OD bluetooth problems

Hello, I just got my new GT70 about 2 weeks ago, and have been having trouble with the bluetooth. I have been having problems with the radio self-disabling randomly, and being unable to re-enable it until restarting the machine. Then today, rebooting does not fix the problem. When i use the system control manager (SCM) program, the bluetooth icon goes to enabled for a split second before turning off. the device manager reports error 22, and does not enable the device when commanded to do so. I am about to re-install the driver, but was wondering if anyone had any experience with this problem?
thanks

I have the exact same issue with my GT70-20C.
I actually got it working for one day, and then I rebooted and it's not working again.
I have tried installing/repairing/deleting drivers until I'm blue in the face.
Same with SCM.
I really expected better from MSI.
If you're having a problem, then explain it.
You should probably also start your own thread instead of reviving somebody's old thread.

MSI GT70 2OC Realtek audio driver problem

Hi,
I am having MSI GT70 2OC-065US. I am using Roccat Kave headphones. Headphone is real 5.1 surround one, hence it comes with four 3.5 mm audio jacks. It used to work well and there was sound from each speaker. But since I have upgraded to latest sound drivers provided on product support page, my rear speakers have stopped working. If I exchange the jack with some other then they work, but speakers which are plugged in rear jack don't work. This means new drivers have probably disabled my rear jack.
Kindly suggest a solution to this problem.

No sorry my friend. My PC is not with me on my holiday so can't help as much as I'd like to.
Restore to previous settings, apparently there is nothing newer (in most cases) just simple bug fixes, and I believe you had no probs before?
Thanks for replying and sorry for disturbing during your holiday. I switched back to my old drivers and everything started working perfectly fine.
I guess there is problem with new drivers.

Can't update the firmware of my GT70 2OC (Problems with your firmware)

I can't update the last firmware of GT70 2OC, the guide says run file ecwin.bat as administrator and it will automatically choose which folder of (352x & 353x) is the right one for my notebook and it will run automatically.. well it doesn't do that and it show me this
And this is what inside the firmware.zip
So, which folder is the right one for the GT70 2OC ? (352x or 353x) ?
Because I can just run the winflash.exe from anyone of them.
BTW Norton removed "Autoflash.exe" it detected it as a medium risk and bad reputation -_-

The problem is I think I installed the wrong one last time :\ because they made the same mistake and the same error appeared -_- so I may have installed the wrong one from the 352x or 353x .. and the touch buttons didn't work since then I think.. maybe that's why !
if you are sure that you reflashed to the wrong one,
then reflash to correct one, there are 2 choices only
ie: if your current is .7xx and you have issues some keys not working or other not working stuffs, then reflash to .5xx
and opposite

turn off/disable Norton before flashing

If I have a Windows 8.1 disk, do I need to keep partitions for GT70 2OC?

I've run into a few problems so I'm going to be doing a reinstall. My GT70 2OC came with Windows 8, but I have 8.1 on a thumb drive. Is there any reason I would need any of the saved partitions such as the recovery partition or can I reformat everything and start fresh? Will I be fine if I download the drivers from the MSI website? Is there anything else I might need to make sure the laptop functions as well as before?
Thanks for your help!

I would suggest you to create 2nd tumb drive with recovery from laptop for future use incase etc you want to sell laptop in future and new owner wants it's default stuff then you can restore it once you created that you can then format laptop to new os but first make sure new usb has the recovery copy.

GT70 2OC-065US-SCM/SBCenima & KLM failing-Prob Event Name "BEX"

Title says it all - after startup the MSI utilities are loading on my GT70 2OC-065US-SCM/SBCenima & KLM popup with dialog boxes stating that these three have stopped working via > Prob Event Name "BEX" in the appropriate app .exe
Any Idea as to why this is happening - I have uninstalled these utilities for now and can see no other issues but would like to know if anybody has similar experience as these utilities have value
Win 8/64
Have not updated to win 8.1.

*Be careful that you're posting in the wrong board. Here is only for the workstation series.
Do you have the pre-installed OS on your GT70 2OC?
Those utility are needed with their value for sure, but for getting a BEX error message isn't normal for sure.
If you have the original system, then I'd suggest to use F3 recovery to restore the system back to the factory settings.
Tutorial video:
Otherwise, if the OS is installed on your own, then re-install it and use all official drivers from MSI website.
Driver Download link: http://www.msi.com/support/nb/GT70-2OC.html#down-utility&Win8.1 64
To re-install the system is most suggested (in case there are more unknown problems popping up), but if you don't feel like doing it.
Here I found a work around which might help with the current situation, you can also give it a try.
[Disable the DEP for programs]
1. Right click on my computer.
2. Go to properties.
3. Click on advanced system settings, under performance, click settings.
4. Click the Data Execution Prevention tab, and then click Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select.
5. Click Add, browse to the executable file for the program and add it.

But recently, my fps will drop just at anytime when I'm playing League of Legends, even tho I tried to lower the graphic and also enabled v-sync, the problem doesn't solve, any suggestion to fix this problem? I really need some helps

hi RX8,
i used to install a cracked version of OS and having same problem like this.
sometimes there will be missing file but it would be found couple days later.
sometimes there will be software issue, for example, no sound during mp3 play or video play, but couple days later it will be solved automatically.
after that, i installed an official OS Win7 then all the problem gone....

Thanks for reminding me of the HDD problem.
I met this kind of problems before because of my HDD is having bad sectors.
Checking the healthy of the disk is a good idea.

GT70 2OC-239XPL SSD installation

Hi, I am going to buy this laptop (GT70 2OC-239XPL) in a few days. It has one 750 gb 7200rpm hard drive by default. I would like to add an ssd (Samsung Evo 840 120 gb) to it. What should I do to have the maximum performance from the ssd I will install. In some websites, I read that adding ssd like this can create some performance issues. I am waiting for your advises. Thank you.

Quote from: James D on 18-November-13, 11:04:36
Nah, you searched wrong. No way it could cost twice more and you looked at 256GB. 128GB costs 117$ shipped on Newegg http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820249032
M5S should cost less but it is rare in the USA. Plextor is faster copy of Crucial so if not 1-st then buy 2nd (M500 or M4).
Speaking about SF. On any good SSD forum or general PC/notebook forum people already know that you can't trust SF. Yes, Intel is doing better than other. I guess because Intel writes IRST drivers and writes good firmware. But everybody who looked good at history of SandForce starting from OCZ 2 BSODS and dissappearing and further will do what many other people... just turned away from it.
Why not if SF offers good speed in compressible data and so-so in non-compressible + bad reputation + totally different algorithm of writing to chip like Durawrite etc etc etc.
The best reason to move to Marvel or Barefoot or Samsung is because many SSD manufacturers run away from SandForce to other controllers: OCZ and Corsair did it for more than year and they use advertisement that they are no more slow as they were.
To sum up. I believe that everyone can prefer what he likes. I surely will stick with my and will continue to advice what other people do not have problems with. I am free for new info and will not advice Samsung Pro if people got troubles with it in MSI laptops even though on other MSI forum I have never heard this. You can offer Intel or any other SSD if you want to.
So you are right. I did look at the wrong one.
As for samsung, if you haven't seen it on other forums (I already know you frequent notebookreview....its there too....) then thats probably because you haven't looked or seen it cause people found out it was terrible.
As far as others, they moved on because they used the original SF controllers, and I won't deny they were bad. But that's not the same with the SF2281. As has been proven time after time. But go ahead, keep using their old controllers against them. How about Marvell? How about their insanely horrid controller that was so bad you couldn't even multitask with one of their SSD's? You aren't holding that against them.....and you sit here and promote a drive based on one of their controllers but continue bashing Sandforce. So get off your high horse and stop the bashing on Sandforce, unless you're going to hold Marvell to the same standards and stop recommending a SSD from a controller company with a history of very bad and slow controllers. Double standards such as those really reflect badly.
Samsung 840 Pros are well known to not work well, usually only running at SATA2 speeds, sometimes not even showing up in the BIOS. I'm not saying they are bad drives, or they don't perform well, I'm stating that they just don't work well in these laptops.
As far as Plextor, sure, go ahead and buy it.

MSI GT70 2OC Questions (Unlocked Bios, upgrade VGA drivers)

Hi Iam looking for some answers, from what I saw, there are few really awesome helping people here. So Hi to everyone!
AS I noticed there is no GT70 2OC topic here, so there is now. I will update infos How-to´s and other stuff for everyone that have this revision.
1. Update VGA drivers, Set as default there is nvidia optimus (Intel+nvidia switching mode)
Pros: Battery life
Cons: Faulty switching in some games, just sporadic driver support, 2 VGA drivers at once couse problems with CAD applications and some older games.
Comment: Iam using this as Hi-end mobile solution for work and games, extra 4th hour of battery live comes as real nonsense to me in exchange for ale the troubles.
Possible solution: Unlocking hidden/advanced BIOS options should reveal control for wheter to swithing mode od discrete graphics only. Setting it to discrete graphics only would mean no driver troubles slightly better performance and most importanly possibilyty of regular VGA driver updates from nvidia.
I already send PM to Svet about unlocking bios. But Iam still asking any ideas anyone?

Sadly most of those concerns aren't really valid.
While I have the old GT70 0NE, even on this unit there were no issues ever getting any program (be it Autocad/Solidworks/whatever you like, or games either, even if they were older) to work with the card(s) properly. It's all a matter of making it do what you want, which is actually handled rather well by the drivers. Optimus is much better than it was a while ago, and it functions very well now.
While your your point of just making it default to the NVidia card is valid, it's a very moot point. Every program I've tried (be it 10+ year old games even from the mid-90's, to even the most recent applications and games) works just fine. Again, it's all in how you make the driver work. If you tell it to use the NVidia card when you run this program, it'll work.
I wouldn't worry about making it use only the NVidia card exclusively, it really isn't worth the effort. While it is possible, it's much more difficult than one would think....

How to Solve Wi-Fi or Bluetooth Problems on your iOS Device?

Do you have any problem with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on your iOS Device? Please read these steps carefully and follow it!
These Steps that I am sharing are TESTED by 10 iOS users what had problems with Wi-Fi or Bluetooth or both and was successful
- Please note that Resetting/Factory Resetting/Hard Resetting or Recovering or un-jailbreaking your device will not work at all -
To Solve Wi-Fi Problems Follow these steps (But before doing anything please restart your iOS Device and see if you still have network problems):
Step 1 Go to Settings > General > Reset > Rest Network Settings and Reset your Network Settings and wait until your device re-boots
Step 2 Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and see if you can connect to your Wi-Fi If you can't then go to next step
Step 3 Go to Settings > Airplane Mode and turn on Airplane Mode and shut down your device. Go to your network provider and ask to restart the Modem or do it your self (Just unplug power cord and plug it back in) You have to wait 30 seconds.
Step 4 Boot your device and go to Settings > Airplane Mode and this time turn if off and go to Wi-Fi and see if you can connect it again. If you can't then go to next step - Note: If you are going on to Step 5 it means that your device is experiencing Critical System Error that cannot be fixed easily -
Step 5 Go your laptop/desktop and open your browser then type this on the webpage search bar 192.168.0.1 and click enter. If it doesn't work then go and ask your network provider for an address for your modem/internet settings.
Step 6 Change your modem/internet settings to no password and make it "available/visible for everyone" and go to your iOS device and got to Settings > Wi-Fi and see if it works this time. If it still doesn't work go to next step - Note: If you are going on to the next step it means you are experiencing Critical System Error that had been cause by glitch/bug -
Step 7 Connect your iOS Device to iTunes on your laptop/desktop and update your iOS version -Note: this process if basically re-installing your operating system- If you can't update if because the new update if not available you have to wait for next update unfortunately
Step 8 After updating your iOS Device Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and see if it connects to your Wi-Fi. It normally fixes the problem but if it still doesn't, it means your device is experiencing hardware problem. Visit your local Apple Retail Store or reseller and ask them for complimentary/device-exchange/warranty help or go to Apple website for online support: www.apple.com/support/ for better support.
To Solve Bluetooth Problem all you need to do is resetting (not factory resetting) your device and see if it works, if it doesn't you will need to update your iOS or Google for more technical troubleshooting because it could be your pairing device's problem. Visit www.apple.com/support/ for better support.
If anyone of you had these experiences and was successful troubleshooting please do share your experience. I will also be avaliable to answer your questions if you have one! Please do share your openions about my post if you have one

If you don't mind, would you do that for me please?

Bluetooth problems all around - Modem in the first row.

Hi there,
I've got a really annoying problem with the Bluetooth Setup of my Mac. Like you can see in my system description, I use Mac OS X 10.5.6. For a long time I used my old mobile via Bluetooth and GPRS as a Modem. Now it was time for a change. I bought a new mobile which supports 3G (Nokia 5800 Xpress Music).
I used the Bluetooth Wizard and told him to use all possible bluetooth functions of my device. I looked in the internet for the right configuration (APN, CID,...) and choosed to use the Nokia GPRS/3G Modem script which is preinstalled in Mac OS X (I also tried another one from www.taniwha.org.uk, it didn't work either).
The very strange thing is, the first connection worked without any problem, but after disconnecting and reconnecting it didn't work anymore. Instead I've got a message that the RFCOMM-Channel can't be opened.
I tried to fix the problem myself by searching wrong settings in some plists, but although I restored the original settings after recognizing that my changes didn't work, I've got a new problem.
Now the status symbol of the bluetooth modem always shows up that no modem configuration could be found, although I can still try to connect via Network -> Bluetooth. Of course it doesn't work this way too.
Sometimes the bluetooth modem works once after a reboot ( not after every reboot ). But only once!
File Transfer always works! The Nokia Multimedia Transfer also always works.
I definitely need advice of some of you, experts.
I'd love to hear from you!

Hi,
sorry, but the problem isn't solved yet. I tried different things but nothing helped:
I backuped and deleted the following Files:
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/Preferences.plist
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist
/Users/benutzername/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.BluetoothHASH.plist
But it didn't help. In fact it made things worse. Therefore I restored the backuped files.
I deleted all bluetooth devices and installed just my new phone a bunch of times. - No change at all.
I used FSEventer to control the Filesystem Access. That leaded me only to the files mentioned above.
In the log-file:
/private/var/log/ppp.log
is the following error message logged:
Failed to open /dev/cu.Bluetooth-Modem: Resource busy
Up until now, I don't understand why this resource is busy.
I figured out, that the modem works using a USB-connection. That isn't a satisfying solution but it works for now.
Nevertheless I am still really interested in resolving the Bluetooth problem.

Bluetooth problem Yosemite

I bought a new iMac 21,5 with wireless keyboard and the Magic Mouse.
I've been using it for about two weeks now and everything was working fine, until i installed the new OSX Yosemite when it released.
Now, about 10x an hour the computer loses the bluetooth connection with the keyboard.
This is very annoying, since i use it for 3D drawing, and everytime it loses connection, i have to fill in the numbers again.
I've read on the internet that a lot of people share these problems.
Is Apple coming with a solution or update? Or can i fix this myself?
Read something about resetting RAM etc as well. But since my computer is new, I dont think that'll do it.
Thank you very much.

I had the bluetooth problem where my MacBook Pro wouldn't reconnect to my external bluetooth keyboard after the initial connect when I upgraded to Yosemite. I found the solution in another thread from nashntk: "everything were solved by resetting SMC Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)."
So far, the SMC reset fixed all of my bluetooth issues after the Yosemite upgrade. And it seems to be an ongoing solution as one reset has allowed me to disconnect and reconnect again multiple times.

Airport & Bluetooth problems after 10.4.7 update

(Note: I posted this in the Tiger forums and after no response, thought I'd try here.)
Greetings,
After updating to 10.4.7, my iMac G5 20" iSight exhibits occasional loss of signal strength in the Airport and poor or lost Bluetooth connections with the wireless keyboard and mouse.
The Airport and Bluetooth problems happen together at the same time. I can see the Airport signal strength drop and seconds later the mouse starts becoming slow and I usually lose connectivity with my keyboard. After about 10 minutes, signal strength returns on both.
The system is well isolated from interference, the cordless phone is a 5 ghz unit, and all cellphones have been removed from the room, but the symptoms continue. The wireless G router is only 3 meters away in the same room.
I reapplied the combo 10.4.7 updater, repaired permissions, cleaned caches using Applejack, zapped the PRAM and reset the SMU but the problem still happens.
Any suggestions? It is driving me crazy.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I'll add a "here, here". I have a 20" iMac G5 (1.8 GHZ). Since applying 10.4.7 I have had Bluetooth disappear twice. Disappear as in: keyboard and mouse no longer function and the bluetooth icon in the menu bar disappears. Power cycle works to recover the system. A far from elegant workaround.

Bluetooth problem in ideapad s210 touch windows 8.1 and audio problem

Hi .. i have lenovo s 210
i have a problem with audio output, the sound is muted and it said that my bluetooth audio device can not be started. i download realtek High definition from the support system and the audio system start working again. But when i check the device manager the bluetooth problem still not fixed. It said i had a code 10 problem. I just recently update my windows to 8.1, but before there is no problem with the audio... and recently i find out that i can not use my bluetooth too. and all the bluetooth system seems doesn't work out
what should i do??
thanks

Actually, I solved this issue myself after a while.
I induced a system restore prior to the date when I began to experience this error.
It then happened once more, so I went to the "PC Settings" menu and selected "Update and recovery".
There were apparently updates to be installed, so I clicked "More details/information", and found that there were 3 Intel-related drivers that were listed, but for some reason, Windows 8 didn't automatically install them, so I checked each one of them and proceeded to install them and it has been smooth sailing for me ever since that.
SO.
A piece of advice for all those who have experienced the issue I detailed in my former post:
Check what updates need to be installed on your computer in the "PC Settings" app thing, and see if there are any driver-realted updates (like for your graphics card, especially).
