N80: Bluetooth and firmware

My N80 doesn't work very wel in bluetooth with my BMW X3.
I can hang-up and hang-down with the car, but this is all. I can't brouwse the contact list, and only the phonenumber is show on the screen of my car, not the name of the contact.
The firmware of the N80 is the V 4.0632.0.38 dated 13-10-2006 RM-92 Nokia N80 (02)
How can i know on the internet site of Nokia what is the last version of firmware for my N80.
(Before it was wel working with my 6280 with the last firmware version, not with the old one)
Can i expect a new firmaware with update for the bluetooth connection?

download the NSU (Nokia Software Updater) and check for your new firmware. I have a N80 from o2 and the latest firmware i have is:
V 4.0623.0.42
20.09.2006
RM-92
Nokia N80 (33.01)
I can tell you that my bluetooth works much better since updating to the above firmware. Give it a go, may fix your bluetooth problem.

N80 bluetooth disconnecting issue

I am unable to use my bluetooth gps with N80. It disconnects the bt connection about once in 5 minutes.
I've read some forums and it seems that others are also experiencing similar bug in N80 (bt headsets and gps's)
My firmware is 3.0617.0.6
I'm using Navicore software and disconnecting happens both with location api and direct bluetooth connections. This (using location api) makes me believe, it is operating system issue and not Navicore.
I'm waiting for an upgraded firmware. When will it be released and is this bug known/fixed?

Hi there, I had problems with the bluetooth too. I have the same firmware as you and was having problems with a headset. I took it to Phoneland and although there is no new firmware at the moment there is a service upgrade (Bluetoothe, Wi-Fi etc)which fixed the problem with the headset. Maybe you need to get yours done too. Just tell them your having trouble with bluetooth and they will have a look. It's free too as long as it's still under warranty. Hope this helps.
Is that an N95 in your pocket or are you just pleased to see me?!?
Life's too important to take seriously.
Nokias I've owned 3210, 3310, 6100, 7650, 6600, 6680, 6630, N80, N95

N80 Bluetooth connection problems

Hi, i really am hoping someone can help i have been a big Nokia fan for a long time but have lately owned Motorola and sony ericson, but i have just bought the Nokia N80, which i have to say is the best phone i have owned yet, but i have a big problem i have an Audi sat nav system, which i also purchased the Bluetooth hands free module which allows me too connect a bluetooth phone to my audi sat nav display and use it as a handsfree, my motorola v3 and SE k750i both connected no problem at all, but my Nokia N80 connects and then 5 minutes later disconnects then 1 min later re connects this happens many times over a period of the day the longest its stayed connected is 1 hour, also i cant read my phone book or missed calls in my audi sat nav screen which it should read from the phone via bluetooth. i have the latest firmware on the N80 so should i go back to a known make that works or could someone offer some help
thanks

Hi Karim/everyone. Been on to Orange again today cos my N80 is still intermittently not working on Bluetooth.When connected to my headset (I've tried 2 different ones now)I get one way transmission; also the headset icon doesn't always disappear when I switch the headset off. Orange are gonna send me a 3rd handset, if this doesn't fix it they want me to cancel my contract and go to another network. Defeatist or what? I'm really surprised Nokia haven't sorted all the issues with this phone, I've always had Nokias but I think it's time to start looking at ericcson P990i or similar when it's released

N80 Bluetooth Problem

Since updayting to latest Firmware V3.0617.0.6

Nokia N80 (08)
I have noticed that the bluetooth connection to PC-Suite drops after approx 30mins. When I try to re-connect, the phone is not detectable, either in discoverable or hidden mode, and PC-suite does not "see" the phone, other Bluetooth phones that that have been paired with my PC within the Bluetooth devices window are displayed as options but not my N80. If I restart the N80 it connects automatically as normal, then drops about 30 mins later again.
PC-Suite version is 6.8-22
Any thoughts anyone?

Short-sighted approach to Bluetooth and Wi-fi.

I've just bought an Ipad - which I think is a truly amazing bit of kit. However within 36 hours I've discovered some very basic shortcomings in the software design in respect to both Bluetooth and Wi-fi. I was so shocked at their absence that I ran these past the Apple Support team who confirmed my worst fears.
The Ipad Bluetooth will not work with my Blackberry 9000. The Blackberry pairs with the Ipad but the Ipad syncs with nothing. Given that Blackberries are probably the most used smartphone in the business community - this seems like a really serious oversight?
Wi-fi printing I'm told only works with Airprint 101 - but then is limited to a narrow range of HP printers. Why? I have an HP Photosmart 3310 which is wireless and can accept wireless connectivity from any Windows based PC. I did evetually find a messy solution to the problem which I'll detail because I'm sure there are clever enough people working at Apple who might just be able to fix it better!!
You need to create a directory in the Programs Directory called 'Airprint'. You then need to download the three files that Airprint 101 uses and locate these in the directory. As soon as you rum 'Airprint.exe' your Ipad will show you any printers that are attached through wi-fi. However you must keep the directory with the Airprint files open because as soon as you close it - the printers disappear.
I improved the situation slightly by creating a task in the Task Sceduler to run when the PC opens and which automatically runs the 'Airprint.exe' file. Now all I have to do is to ensure that my Windows PC is on befire I use my Ipad!!
There has to be a better way than this and I feel it detracts from the Ipad as a potentially super piece of kit.
Perhaps someone from Apple would like to look into this and give some feedbasck? Thanks.

No. It doesn't work with any cell phones.
The iPad Bluetooth works with only with headphones and keyboards.
Wi-fi printing I'm told only works with Airprint 101
Dunno what *AirPrint 101* is. AirPrint was incoporated into iOS 4.2.1
but then is limited to a narrow range of HP printers. Why?
Besause printer manufacturers have not updated their printer firmware to speak "AirPrint". It is up to them to make their printers compatible, not he other way around.

This has nothing to do with Apple. It's somebody hack to get iPads to print through a computer.
AirPrint does not talk through a computer.
It talks directly to the printer on the network.

Not working WI-FI, Bluetooth and quickly discharged battery on my iPhone 4S. Не працює Wi-Fi, Bluetooth і швидко розряджається батарея на моєму iPhone 4S.

I'm trying to cast network configuring, reset all settings, erase all content and settings and nothing helped. I also tried to restore the iPhone, restore from backup, restore DFU mode and also nothing helped. My iPhone does not fall, not shock and not get water.
The problems started after updating to IOS 6.1.3. In all previous firmware it worked good.
I never put Jailbreak! And I buy his new!

Bluetooth and GT750M is not working after suspending to RAM.

Hello! I am yet another lucky owner of laptop with optimus Intel+nVidia technology. I had really frustrating issue with Bumblebee because my nvidia just randomly refused to change power state in the past, luckly after a few months someone added workaround to the Bumblebee's troubleshooting section on ArchWiki and it worked flawlessly for a while. But now, most likely because of some kernel updates, I'm experiencing similar issue with both Bluetooth and nvidia card but this time only after suspending to RAM.

ACTIVATING FACETIME AND IMESSAGES
Activating Facetime and Imessages on your phone requires the ability to send SMS messages and depending upon where you are that might be an international SMS. Check with your carrier to see if your plan supports sending of international SMS messages. If you are having trouble activating Facetime or Imessages turn them both off on your device and reset the device (Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost)). Wait for the device to restart and wait a minute and turn Facetime and imessage back on and wait for activation. If that does not fix things read the following articles:

Nokia Lumia 1520 - Bluetooth and Data Connectivity...

Hi - i recently updated my Nokia lumia 1520 with a new firmware that Nokia tool told me being available. after that i have consistantly having bluetooth connectivity issues and Data connectivity issues.
i have a Jabra Clipper bluetooth headset which . i am no longer able to pair it. it detect and says jabra clipper, then starts pairing, then simply says couldn't connect.
if i have wifi on, if i go out of range of the WIFI signal, my data connection stops working as well. this is 100% of the time. i have to reboot my phone to get data connectivity back.
Its on Lumia Cyan
manufacturer name: RM-937-im_mea3_1019
core build id: 7030.80
bsp release: 2061.0066
applicatoin versoin: 3.11.2.1
build creation date: 7/8/2014
from Nokia software recovery tool:
Product Code: 059V479
Software Version: 02061.00066.14253.40002

Because I am just an end-user like you and I do not have your hardware combination here, I can only give general advice. Could be a new interoperability issue between these two devices, introduced with Lumia Cyan. Could be a old wrong pair-key. Or could be interfering between your Bluetooth and Wi-Fi (Bluetooth Adaptive Channel Hopping). Therefore, let us start with the Bluetooth part:
on the Nokia Lumia 1520, Settings » Wi-Fi » Off (to avoid any interference)
on the Nokia Lumia 1520, Settings » Bluetooth » On
(status: paired) tap and hold your Jabra CLIPPER » delete (if paired already)
on the Jabra CLIPPER, press and hold the multi-function button until the indicator light is solid blue (approximately 6 seconds) to activate the paring mode
Your Bluetooth headset should appear in your phone now. After you tapped on it, it should be paired successfully. Does it?
If not, start over again and between step 1 and 2, power off both Jabra CLIPPER and Nokia Lumia 1520.
If it still does not work, start over and between step 1 and 2, please hold volume down + power until the Nokia Lumia 1520 turns off (soft reboot; do not forget to set your date/time afterwards).
If it still does not work, start over and between step 1 and 2, turn off your Wi-Fi access point.
Does it work now?

How to completely turn off Bluetooth and Wireless

Hey everybody,
I'm running Windows XP SP3 via Boot Camp and I was wondering if anyone can assist me in how to completely turn off Bluetooth and Wireless connectivity so that I can reserve as much batter life while being in class taking notes without a plug-in source, but not uninstall. I know there is a Bluetooth control panel and I disabled it there but under "connect to" its still remains there. Basically I want to have the Bluetooth and Wireless turned off completely when I startup and still have the icons shown in the taskbar to let me know that they are still there.
Thanks!

Joergen Thomson, I can see that you have the same thoughts like I do, I wish they could release a software that is stable and better then this.
I dont have the energi or time to report all flaus back to cisco, this product have taking to much of my time and frustration already. Thank you so much for all the time you spend to try get this product stable and hopefully a good product.
I have a costumer that have a webservice that is IP restricted, For now I have to define more then 93 policys openening for the same service because this doesnt handle address list and groups. And all the times I had to set it back to factory default becasue of HTTP Admin server stopped, VPN Problem, Firmware Upgrades, "Packet Loss" and so on takes alot of time becasue I need to reconfig policies back.
For now to they release a firmware is stable I have take this piece off the network and put the back a old Fortinet 60 box.

N80 Bluetooth has stopped working?

Hi
I was using my N80 3g Connection via bluetooth for my laptop. This was working fine no problems. I lost the signal due to bad reception then I found that since this time I can not get my bluetooth to work. The small icon on the screen says that it's on, but the blue light is no flashing. I have tried to turn off bluetooth and back on but still no joy. Turned phone off and on, but still no joy.
The phone can not find any other bluetooth device nor can any other device find my N80.
Any help would be very much appricated as bluetooth is very vital to me!

Maybe I should read
-----start nonsense
Are you absolutely sure your phone is 'discoverable' in the settings? Because it sounds like your phone is set to hidden mode, in which it can initiate and keep open connections, but it can't be found by other devices.

N80 Bluetooth Fix Yet?

Anybody have any news from Nokia about the long awaited fix for the N80 bluetooth problems?

Patc, I'm with you, and understand your frustration. I'm sure that the tech boffins in Nokia are beavouring away trying to sort the problems out, but suspect that the vast majority of resources are allocated to new phone development not fixing existing phones.
Sister bliss - You are quite right we should give Nokia every chance to sort it out, but they should at least let us know that they accept that there is a problem and are working on a fix, rather than the sloping shoulder syndrome we are all experiencing. If you have a look at some of the older threads here and on other GSM / 3G forums these issues are not days, but months old. This is not acceptable.
In pure legal terms there is a strong case for legal action. I presume that you have heard of the Trade Descriptions Act and the Sale of Goods and Services Act. They both relate to goods being fit for purpose and being accuurately described. In the case of the N80 Blutooth does not work as per the official bluetooth standard specification and the battery life is not even close to the advertised figures. Of course this is not practical and fortunately the UK does not, yet, operate under the same litigious culture that has thrived in the US, so it is unlikley that any case would make it to court, but as patc pointed out it might encourage Nokia senior managment to reallocate resources to resolve problems with existing phones more quickly. I believe this was the point of patc comment.
Rufao - have you checked this particular forum or done a google search for either "N80 GPS" or "N80 bluetooth", your eyes may be opened. Route 66 works on Symbian S60 v3, and it works on the N80. It is not useable on the N80 because the N80 is prone to disconnect from the GPS reciever every few minutes. This afflicts the Navicore software as well. It is a Nokia problem not a route 66 or any other 3rd party developer problem. In actual fact, due to the lack of apparent action from Nokia, it is our problem.
I'm prepared to wait as long as I know that there is light at the end of the tunnel.
ps Apologies for my spelling, but boiling blood (at Nokia) and writing forum posts whilst at work don't contribute to great grammar !!!!

N80 - Bluetooth light not switching off

Hi
Just got my new N80. I paired it with my laptop. It works fine. However, the Bluetooth light keeps blinking although I have turned off Bluetooth and also made the phone "Hidden". I would like to turn the light off completely since, possibly, it would eat away the battery charge. Appreciate your help.
Imtiaz

Hi imtiaz
There isn't a Bluetooth light on the N80. The light I think you're referring to (top left, just under the N80 logo) is a sleep indicator. It just shows that the phone is still powered when the display has gone off.
If you want to turn it off Tools; Settings; Phone; Display; Sleep mode = OFF.
Be warned though... sleep mode off means that the display will not go to sleep, and the battery drain will be greater than having the flashing led.

10.4.7 problems: USB, Firewire, Bluetooth and mounting images

After installing the 10.4.7 update and getting the checksum error:

• Firewire devices wouldn't mount (though I could see them in System Profiler)
• Apple Bluetooth keyboard and mouse weren't recognised and couldn't re-pair them
• Unable to mount any disk images
I've been able to fix the USB and Firmware mounting problems by zapping the open firmware (see this post)
I've also zapped PRAM and ran disk utility from installer disk, but no success - the Bluetooth and disk image problems remain.

TS1559 My iPod Touch 3rd Gen I think (Doesn't have a camera), bluetooth and wi-fi grayed

My iPod Touch's Bluetooth and Wi-fi are now grayed out, I have tried everything to fix it. It happened right after I upgraded it to the new iOS 5.1.1, could this be an effect caused by the new iOS firmware? It has not been dropped, thrown, broken, wet, etc. Is this an affect the new firmware had on it? Will it be fixed with iOS 6 or is it permanent?

It's clear it isn't under warranty so I would check the link above first. Also I'm sorry to say you will not be running ios6 on that device anytime soon as it is not supported. Check the very bottom of http://www.apple.com/ios/ios6/ sorry I couldn't make it a link I'm on an iPad writing this.

IMac 2011 & 10.8.5 - now bluetooth and sound dead!

Hello,
i upgraded my 2011 iMac from 10.8.4 to 10.8.5 and after the reboot bluetooth and sound are gone!
So I did a PRAM reset, now I have the startup sound but still no sound or bluetooth under mac osx? Magic Mouse still works, but without scrolling and so on... So it seems 10.8.5 is really messed up!
Any ideas to fix that?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test Bluetooth while in safe mode. Sound won't work. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
