Nokia 6230i Bluetooth problem connecting HELP!!!

Hi, I have spent the best part of the day trying to establish whether my new nokia 6230i mobile phone that I received for xmas is faulty or is it something I am doing wrong. I just cannot seem to connect to my computer via the Bluetooth or infrared. I have been reading other peoples problems with the same thing on various websites and I thought rather than try and struggle anymore somebody here may be able to help!!! I downloaded to PC suite that came with the phone, and even downloaded a higher version (apparantly a newer one).But my phone just wont connect. I then managed to download - 1.6.1 from http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/download/dld/spt_dld_detail.php?UID=607&kind=8
which seems to be working fine but as soon as i tried to connect it just will not find my connection on my phone. Do i need to buy any other accessories before I can connect?? I might also add that we also tried on my partners laptop and nothing is happening at all.Am i doing something wrong. somebody please tell me if I need to buy extra USB ports before using this feature. Although being Bluetooth I thought this was wireless?? Also any recommendations on how to use the infrared would be great to. Sorry to drag this on - i am not new to phones as i have had many but this has got me stumped. Thanks in advance for any help. Dawnie33

If your Bluetooth solution is Bluesoleil, I would firstly update your Nokia PC Suite to latest version, 6.70.22 from www.nokia.com/pcsuite ( I don't recall by heart what was the level of BlueSoleil support in PC Suite 6.5, but it can be that your problem is partly related to BlueSoleil not being officially supported with that old version of PC Suite (6.5).
Then the next thing is to look around for intructions how you make sure that if you have Windows Xp SP 2 (which has microsoft own Bluetooth sw solution that easily "fights" with any other Bluetooth sw), how you make the Bluesoleil work in your PC flawlessly.
Google is good help for that, search for links like: "BlueSoleil sw problem in XP SP2" or similar and look for instruction how you make sure you only have BlueSoleil sw in active use.

Nokia 6234 Bluetooth problem

Basically, it wont turn on.
I got the phone about a month ago, and at first the bluetooth worked fine. Then, I came to use it, and whenever I try to turn it on, on the connectivity screen, it wont turn on, no matter how many times I press the ok button.
Oh, and at one point, I locked myself out of my phone, and had to get the PUK code. I dont know whether that could have affected it at all.
Any help on this problem would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hey people i bought one of these nokia 6234 about 3 months ago and just recently i am experiencing the exact same bluetoothe problems as described here,anyway i tried turning the fone on and off a few times then the bluetoothe connected,but this didnt seem to work for long and it kept disconnecting,so i took it and all my bluetooth accessories to a vodafone shop twice and they told me that it has to be sent off to vodafone for maufactures warranty repairs which will probably take 2 months thats vodafone for you !! so i m not going to bother apparently vodafone thinks its internal software probably.

Nokia 6230i bluetooth

hi i recently bought a brand new nokia 6230i phone.however i am unable to receive data via bluetooth from other phones. i can send data,that is no problem,but is there a reason for my phone not being able to receive data... please help!!

What does your phone say when trying to accept? Is any message displayed on the other 'sending' handset?
How much memory is free on your handset? If you're low on memory, you can't accept files that exceed the memory available.

Nokia 6230i/Bluetooth/NokiaPCSuite/Vista

Hello.
I'm using NokiaPC Suite (on a Vista computer) since version 6.6 with a bluetooth connection to Nokia 6230i. There were no problems but after the last update 7.1.18 it's impossible to connect PC and Nokia again. Everytime I click on "Connect device" the three choices (Bluetooth, Cable, Infrared) are not enabled and so I can't click on them or on continue. The contact between Nokia and Vista is alright, but I can't use it with NokiaPC Suite.
Cheers

I have a different bluetooth problem which is really annoying. I cannot connect to my Halfords ProWave car kit. It is a great kit and my other 2 phones worked perfectly. Get in the car it connects to the car radio, get out and you are disconnected.
But when I got the 6230i a few weeks ago when I tried to connect, it did everything, and connected. Then when I got in the car it would not connect and each time I tried it said that it was unable to connect.
I changed the unit in the car, and have since had 2 new phones, and it does the same thing. Once it has been through the process with the car kit, then it is totally screwed up and will not connect to anything. It finds the other phone or computer, but then says "Bluetooth connection failed".
Anyone else had this problem and how do you get anyone to do anything about it?

Nokia N78 Bluetooth A2DP Connection Problem

Hi there!
My phone model is Nokia N78, type: RM 235, software version 30.011.
I got a SONY DRC-BT15 Bluetooth Receiver, which is like this one http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10551&storeId=10151&lang...
Nokia N78 is said to support A2DP Bluetooth connection but how can I turn on the A2DP Bluetooth connection? Can anyone help me?
I have no problem pairing and connecting my N78 to SONY DRC BT-15 but the sound I hear through the SONY device is definitely not A2DP at all. The sound sucks. When I connect my SONY DRC-BT 15 with my MacBook, I can choose to listen by Mono or Stereo Mode, and when I choose the Stereo Mode(I guess it's what we call A2DP), the sound through the SONY device is good.
So how can make the SONY headset to connect to N78 via A2DP to listen to good music?
I have been trying for hours. This problem makes me crazy.
I would really appreciate your help.

Thanks for showing me the specifications and reminding me of the DRM issue. Just one more question: When there's no DRM issue, does the A2DP turn on automatically and connect to my bluetooth headset (which supports A2DP of course) automatically too? Or how do I switch to the A2DP connection mode on N78? I just don't know where to turn A2DP on!
Thanks a lot.
Pairing provides the profile in a handshake protocol so yes, it should work.

Nokia 5700Xm Bluetooth problem Help Me !!!!!!

Dear frnds im using Nokia 5700XM, two days ago suddenly my phone Bt. got prob. it cant send files via Bt but it can recieve all kind of files..... plz help me Help me.

Firstly check that there are no proxy set-ups in your browser, go in Internet Exploerer to tools, connections, LAN settings and make sure all the tick boxes are deselected.
Also check your phone has the correct APN, go on the phone to tools, settings, connection, access point in use and set it to the default as per your operator, Usually it is just "internet"
If all else fails, try install another browser like Firefox or Google Chrome and see if they give you the same issues.

Bluetooth Problem, pls help~~~

First of all, i m doing my final year project now, i hope somebody can help me in my problem...
i m now developing a multitplayer game using bluetooth, n i hv downloaded the "DiscoverBluetooth" source code from here :
http://www.forum.nokia.com/info/sw.nokia.com/id/2b17fb6f-b9a4-4cd8-80fd-94b8251a048e/Games_Over_Bluetooth_v1_0_en.zip.html
but when i try to run in on wireless toolkit + NOKIA series 60 SDK, the application wont start, it will not respone for 1 or 2 seconds, then come back to the menu...
can somebody help me to check the code??

It should be in the menu. Press menu select connect.(connectivity). If it's not there you have to reset your phone to factory or format it. Make a backup first when you decided to reset or format it.
Knowledge not shared is knowledge wasted!
If you find it helpfull, it's not hard to click the STAR..

Its very strange as say for example a friend can see my phone on their phone so obviously the phones are comunicating, but data will just not arrive at my phone!!!
Please help guys!!!!!!

I confirm there is a problem with Bluetooth on this device.
I have been played with bluetooth for a long time (> 9 months) with my Siemens S65, a GPS, a BT dongle and recently with the Nokia 770 tablet. Never have a problem between all these devices whatever I am under Linux or under XP (with the same dongle on both systems). I'm using GPRS regularly with the Nokia 770 (via BT and the S65) and no problem at all. Same thing with the dongle, the GPS and the S65 or the tablet.
Yesterday I acquired a 6230i for testing EDGE (GPRS is a bit -very- slow guys) and ... impossible to retrieve a full page.
There is no problem when using GRPS from the terminal itself.
There is also no problem at all when playing with AT commands through the serial port profile (RFCOMM) using the dongle with XP.
But as soon as there is a few bits to be transfered the BT link crashes : I can only observe the beginning of a HTML when surfing before the BT link stops.
Moreover the Nokia 770 tablet itself is unable to see the shared directories on the 6230i whereas it has no problem for seeing and transfering them from the S65 !
Big, big incompatibilities between 2 products of the same manufacturer!
Sounds like a flow control problem.
So where is the solution ? My firmware (6230i) version is 3.5.

Nokia 5200 - bluetooth problem

Hi,
I bought a Transcend 1GB microSD card for my Nokia 5200.
I was able to transfer approx. 600 MB of songs via Bluetooth from my laptop first time I tired. The Memory card shows nearly 400 MB free space but I am not able to transfer any more data.
The error I am facing is :
FTP error - possible error - folder is not empty or file/folder is read-only.
Any help is appreciated.
Regards,
Rony.

wow...sounds great..in order to solve the problem you had to BUY a cable... so in order to use WIRELESS services on Nokia 5200 through STANDARD bluetooth connection, we have to buy a CABLE (wasn't it WIRELESS??) and use a VENDOR-SPECIFIC software (wasn't it STANDARD???)... wow... Nokia really rocks, man! :-S
I'm writing this since I had exactly the problem you had... I had 125 files in the 1giga microSD for an amount of approx 725 mega occupied on the card, and I got exactly the same message.
I "solved" the problem deleting files and getting below the "threshold" of 125 files and uploading more files... really frustrating when you've to CHOOSE between the mp3 you'll be able to listen, even if you've paid for 1giga memory and still have 1/3 of the card free...hope some buddy of Nokia will read this...

Bluetooth problem connection between 2 Mac

I'm trying to connect by Bluetooth my iMac 10.5.5 to my Powerbook G4 10.4.11 - If I check the Bluetooth system preferences, I can read "matched -> yes; Configured ->yes ; Prefered -> yes ; Connected -> NO ; serial port -> yes . MY PROBLEM is they don't connect to each other. When I try the option "change serial port" they get connected for one second (green spot) but after 1 sec. the spot turns red.. I don't know what is wrong. Thankyou for helping me

I "think" (reaching back into memories more than 10 years ago) I think you need a "Crossover" cable - not a standard Ethernet cable.
Can you use a Firewire cable and boot one of the computers in Target Disk Mode?
Home Index
Transferring files between two computers using FireWire
If you have two Mac computers that are FireWire-equipped, you can connect them so that one of them appears as an external hard disk on the other. This is called “target disk mode.”
To transfer files using FireWire:
Connect the two computers with a FireWire cable.
Start up the computer to be used as a disk in target disk mode:
If the computer is off, start it up while holding down the T key.
If the computer is on, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Startup Disk, and then click Target Disk Mode.
When the computer has started up, a disk icon appears on the desktop of the other computer.
Transfer files by dragging them to and from the disk.
Eject the disk by dragging its icon to the Trash. (While you drag, the Trash icon changes to an Eject icon.)
On the computer you used as a disk, push the power button to shut it down, and then disconnect the FireWire cable.
If one of the computers is running Mac OS 9, it must have FireWire version 2.3.3 or later installed. Use Apple System Profiler (in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder) to check the version of FireWire installed. If it is an older version, get an update at the Apple FireWire website.

Nokia 6230i - Bluetooth modem

While trying to connect to the internet via my mobile phone connected to the pc by bluetooth (IVT Bluesoleil dongle), PC Suite says that no Nokia modem is installed and advises to make sure that the Nokia connectivity cable driver is installed, which is already the case.
I have no other bluetooth software installed on my computer, and I have the bluetooth icon in the control panel.
Any help with this is appreciated.
Thanks.
MK

Some precisions. I'm using XP SP2, Tablet PC edition. My computer is a tablet PC Averatec 3500 series.
I have already tried to unistall/reinstall IVT software ad Nokia PC Suite. For info, without Bluesoleil software, my dongle cannot work.

Nokia 6230i MMC problem

hi everybody.i'm using 6230i almost a year and ihadn't any problems...by now...recently i had the following problem:i transfered 2 JPG files from PC via bluetooth.i saved one of the files in the MMC amd the other in the phone's memory.the free space of the MMC decreased (i checked it via "memory status" option).but the file disappeared and i can't find it when i look in the folder!!!after that i tried to move the other JPG file from phone's memory to MMC.and the same thing is happened-the free space decreased but the file dissapeared.so stange...then i moved other file(which was saved in the phone earlier) to MMC(because i thought thah the files are damaged) but the same thing again. in fact my MMC is almost full - there is only around 500kB free space.but i think that it can't be a problem(the files are smaller than the free space).i suppose that the formatting of the MMCcan sovle the problem but it's my last option.can someone tell me what's the nature of that problem and how i can fix it without formatting if it is possible.thanks.

help me pls.i have a big problem.i tried to format my MMC but it was unsuccessfully and now i don't know what to do...firstly i tried to format it via the phone.i made the back up of the saved data and used the option "format memory card".a message "memory card formatted" is appeared on the screen but the card wasn't empty.then i tried to delete the saved files one by one via PC using USB-cable - unsuccessfully again(in that moment i used the phone in "data storage mode").finally i tried to format the MMC directly via PC using the window's menu(file -> formatting...) but even that couldn't help me.i see similar thing(unpossibility to format some kind of memory) for the first time.what's the situation now:my MMC seems to be empty(when you look in it) but when i check the "memory status" option it shows "11MB used".how it is possible.i have no idea..
