Nokia 6350 bluetooth connection to PC may or may-n...

My issue is this:
MY HARDWARE / SOFTWARE:
- Nokia 6350 phone
- IOGEAR GBU321 usb bluetooth
- Windows XP on Dell Latitude D610
- PC Suite 7.1.51.0
PROBLEM:
PC Suite works fine with my phone if I'm in range. If I walk far away and bluetooth connection is lost, when I return to range, the synch btwn PC and Phone MAY or MAY NOT resume. Most of the time it does, but sometimes it does not. I've tried to close/re-start PC-Suite to no avail. I've tried to re-detect my phone via PC Suite...nothing.
The workaround fix I've found to resume the PC--Phone connection is this:
- On the bottom left of task bar, right click on the bluetooth icon and "Explore My Bluetooth Places"
- Delete "Nokia 6350 OBEX File Transfer"
- right click on the bluetooth icon and select "Quick Connect"-->"File Transfer"-->"Find Devices"-->"Show All Devices"-->select the Noka 6350 (for some reason it's visible here)-->and click "Finish".
Then suddenly, my PC-Suite Icon show connected again and I'm back in business.
WHAT is causing this and HOW to fix this permanently ? Something is timing out in PC-Suite.
Thanks,
Neel

Possibly contact your dealer, I work in the motor trade, and most manufacturers can update the sofware for their bluetooth systems for newer phones, it could be a compatibility problem, the handsfree set will have been built before the phone !

Nokia 1020 Bluetooth connectivity lost

For the second time, my 1020 suddenly for no apparent reason looses it's bluetooth connectivity. I'm listening to some music when it starts breaking up. Then I lose the connection altogether and cannot reconect. Have restarted and hard booted but to no avail. Will try factory reboot if I get desperate but it's a hassle. Anyone else have similar problems?

Hi, grahammeltzer.
Welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions!
To which accessory is your phone connected to? Note that compatibility with 3rd party devices (for example, accessories) depends on Bluetooth standards and applications related by it's manufacturer.
Here are basic fixes that you can try on your phone:
1. Make sure that your phone is not in Battery Saver or Flight mode.
2. Make sure that the pairing devices are set to be visible to one another, and that there are no obstructions blocking the space between the devices.
3. If you cannot establish a connection or lose it soon after pairing, make sure that your phonebook contacts do not have special characters or blanks before the name; rename or remove them if they do.
4. If the above steps do not help, start the pairing process from the beginning:
Clear the paired devices list on your phone's Bluetooth settings and restart your phone.
Reset the pairing Bluetooth device to clear information about the last Bluetooth devices.
Go through the pairing process. Refer to the pairing device's user manual to find reset and pairing instructions.
The Bluetooth symbol should appear on your phone screen.
Just let us know if provided workarounds did not work. All the best!

Nokia E5 bluetooth connection with car

When I connect my E5 with Toyota over bluetooth I can't prevent autoanswer - my phone automaticaly answers after 2 seconds. I tried other phones (Sony Ericsson and Nokia E52) and with them there were no problems.
I tried to disable autoanswer on my Nokia E5 but I couldn't.
Any ideas?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Just wondered whether under Menu > Ctrl. panel > Settings > General > Enhancement > Wireless car kit = Default and presumably it is here you have set Automatic answer = Off ?

Nokia C5-03/Win7 Bluetooth connectivity problem

When I am trying to connect Nokia Ovi Suite to my phone using Bluetooth, the pairing process seems to succeed, except the last phase: Then I receive a message that the connection did not succeed. The wizard gives then a possibility to try again with a different ID but it fails every time.
It is the same problem if I try to pair the phone from computer's Bluetooth icon in the notification area. However, with using my laptop with XP this succeeds. Therefore I believe that my phone is OK but there is something wrong with my Bluetooth software in Win 7 computer. Nokia Ovi Suite lists it:
- Microsoft (Version: 6.1.7600, subversion: 16385)
When I start the computer, the Event Viewer shows the following error:
"The Bluetooth driver expected an HCI event with a certain size but did not receive it."
Source: BTHUSB
EventID: 5
The Microsoft's "Event Log Online Help" onthat window does not suggest anything.
However, this may be the actual reason for the problems but I do not know how to fix it.
I have tried Microsoft's "Fix it" tool but it did not fix this problem.
Any ideas what to do?

Still the same problem.
Now I installed the Nokia PC Suite and I tried to make a bluetooth connection to it.
Everything goes again well except after the last phase when I give the asked pin number in my phone, the computer ponders a while and shows then a window with the text that the phone cannot be verified.

Bluetooth connection not working on US Nokia phones from J2ME Midlet (MIDP

Hi All,
We are developing a J2ME midlet (MIDP 2.0 ,CLDC 1.1)which makes bluetooth connection to other devices.The bluetooth
connection is working perfectly on indian nokia phones with Airtel as carrier.But when we deploy the same midlet on Nokia E71
US phone with carrier as AT&T ,the bluetooth connection is not working.The sample code is as follows:
public void run(){
try{
StreamConnection connection = (StreamConnection)Connector.open(btConnectionURL);
// open an input stream to get some data
InputStream in = connection.openInputStream();
byte[] serialData;
readData = true;
while(readData == true){
int lengthavai=0;
lengthavai = in.available();
if(lengthavai > 0){
serialData = new byte[lengthavai];
int length = in.read(serialData);
System.out.println("data read: " + new String(serialData));
dataViewForm.append(new String(serialData));
in.close();
connection.close();
}catch(IOException ioe){
ioe.printStackTrace();
when we try to connect on US Phones],the execution hangs at the following line of code:
StreamConnection connection = (StreamConnection)Connector.open(btConnectionURL);
No exception is caught.
Our midlet is not signed.
In the Forums it is said that the problem is with the unsigned midlet.AS some of the US carriers block the secure API usage
on Unsigned midlet.
But our question is, if we buy a code signing certificate from Verisign or Thawte and sign the midlet, will this problem be solved.
Any other alternative solutions for this ???
Immediate help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Yash

You might want to read this before buying a certificate:
http://javablog.co.uk/2007/08/09/how-midlet-signing-is-killing-j2me/
It's not my blog, but I pretty much agree with what it says. Unfortunately the network operators can control the access 3rd party trusted certificates have, so even if you sign with Verisign for example, the signed midlet may not have any more privileges than an unsigned midlet, depending on network. They do this so that only midlets signed with one of their own certificates have unrestricted privileges forcing anyone who wants a useful application to buy it from the network instead of downloading an equivalent freeware version from Getjar for example. Some networks are worse than others, so signing your midlet will allow it to work on more phones than an unsigned midlet. I think Verisign have some info on AT&T on their website.
The whole MIDP specification for security is a joke, IMHO. I don't mind unsigned midlets flashing up a warning once during an application. Writing 20 files, for example, will give 40 security warnings for reading writing data which is ridiculous, as the user obviously either trusts the app or he doesn't. No one runs an app that they only sometimes trust.
As far as I know the only mobile manufacturer so far to see sense is Sony Ericsson. All of their new phones from Java platform 7 onwards allow unsigned applications access to the file system, bluetooth etc with just one warning when the applications starts.

6350 keeps dropping bluetooth connection

My new 6350 was easy to connect with my Motorola H790 bluetooth headset. However, if I talk for more than about a minute, it drops the connection. When I try to reconnect, the phone cannot find the device. The only way that I can get it to reconnect is to delete the device and start all over. If I have a long drive, this could take place several times, such that it is probably a lot safer for me to just hold the phone in my hand.
Does anyone have advice for this situation?

I have the same problem with a Chrysler 30C UConnect system. The 6350 intermittently drops connectivity. AT&T replaced the 6350 with a new one, but it also drops connectivity. Chrysler checked and I have the latest updates for the UConnect. My old Motorola mobile phone never dropped connectivity so the Nokia 6350 has a serious issue. At this point my only option is to junk the 6350 and purchase a different brand of mobile phone, an expensive option, but I need a mobile phone with reliable connectivity.

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?

Bluetooth connection problem with nokia 6230i

Hi I am having troubles establishing a Bluetooth connection between my Nokia 6230i and my Dell Latitude laptop running on Windows XP SP2 when trying to use Nokia PC Suite. When using the nokia suite connection wizard it establishes a connection for a fraction of a second and then disconnects.
The following information may be useful??
Windows XP Pro SP2
Nokia PC Suite 6.5.12
Microsoft BT Stack 5.1.2600.2180
WIDCOMM BT Stack 3.0.1 build 803
Can any one help please??
Thanks

You could try uninstalling the Widcomm Bluetooth and relying only on Microsoft + PC Suite 6.6.18 from http://www.nokia.com/pcsuite

Can't Get Bluetooth connection to my Nokia n73

Hi,
I've been trying to get my Nokia N73 to sync with my mac, but it never gets connection either if I try from the phone or from the mac. I can get till to the step where I have to enter the password on the phone. From there on I've never got the connection between them.

Hi,
I have got a Bluetooth connection working with a Nokia N73 and recently a N95. In both cases I had to initiate the pairing from the Mac.
One thing I have noticed with the Bluetooth connection to the N95 though, is that it is painfully slow when copying music over.
Cheers,
Andy

What are you trying to accomplish? File transfer is not supported.
If your Nokia provides personal hotspot, you should be able to make

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.

E51 Drops Bluetooth connection with Car Radio afte...

Hi Guys,
Just wondering if anybody has seen this before. It seems like a few people are seeing this but I have yet to find a solution. My phone pairs perfectly and works as it should for about the first 30 mins, then for no reason, it drops the bluetooth connection and I either have to power my phone or radio on/off. This is very annoying as it has now dropped the call too and I am force to redial.
Sometimes it does not even last 30 mins, and might happen after only 10 mins or so.
Any ideas would be great.
Thanks.

Yes, I have a similar problem which is a real pain if the call is dropped mid-conversation. Have you installed the MS Exchange email client from Nokia because that may cause a disconnect during a poll update.
Other than that I can't suggest anything, except it would be good to get a solution to the problem!

Bluetooth connectivity in Windows Vista

Hi there!
I am using Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit on a custom built PC I assembled last year. For Bluetooth connectivity with the PC I am using a Bluetooth dongle (adapter) from Billionton Systems Inc. Here is what it says on the label.
Billionton Systems Inc.
P/N:GUBTCR42
Order No:83888 (32-8866)
S/N:07071300501
Clas Ohlson AB
It is sold in the Clas Ohlson stores, that's why their name is seen on the label, and the 32-8866 is their order number, while the other order number is the manufacturers order number.
I did get the CD with drivers for it and all that, but the software included on that CD seems to be very outdated. I think it includes the Toshiba Bluetooth stack (I think it was labeled differently thou). The included software does work on Windows Vista, but only barely, because it seems to be adopted primarily for Windows 2000 or XP. I remember that it was really difficult to step through the installation guide. The installation guide did show up, and I think that even the Autorun function worked fine so that it would show up automatically upon inserting the CD. But it was pracitcally impossible to step through the installation because the buttons and dials were displaced and f***ed up so you wouldn't be able to see or to click on them. However, if you did manage to step through the installation process you were set and ready to use the new device.
It was a long time ago I installed this, so I'm not sure if this worked perfectly. But there must have been a good reason why I stopped using it, and instead started using the built-in Bluetooth stack from Microsoft. After installing Windows Vista now, I just plug the Billionton Bluetooth dongle right into the USB port. Vista finds it and installs the following devices for it.
Generic Bluetooth Radio
Bluetooth-enhet (RFCOOMM-protokoll-TDI)
Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator
Bluetooth-enhet (Personal Area Network)
Standardmodem över Bluetooth-länk
Bluetooth Peripheral Device (not installed)
As you can see my Vista installtion is using Swedish interface language. In the above list "enhet" means device, "protokoll" means protocol, "över" and "länk" means over and link respectively as in "standard modem over Bluetooth-link".
The only thing that is not installed is something called "Bluetooth Peripheral Device". This should be the last thing to install but I only get the message "Windows måste installera drivrutiner för Bluetooth Peripheral Device" which is probably equal to "Windows must install drivers for Bluetooth Peripheral Device" on English interface.
Even thou the "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" is not installed, I am still able to use this Bluetooth dongle to connect with my Nokia N73 and it seems to work flawlessly. But now I am getting the "Ny maskinvara har hittats" (New hardware found, or similar) dialog every time I log on to Windows Vista. I usually chose to abort it It but it shows four times so I have to abort it four times. In the Device Manager there are four listings of "Bluetooth Peripheral Device".
Why is that? How is it possible that the Bluetooth dongle still works even thou the "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" is not installed? What is "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" and do I need it?
I did try to contact Billiongon Systems for some support on either how to install the shi*** Toshiba Bluetooth stack properly on Windows Vista or to ask for a newer version, or instructions on how to install the Bluetooth dongle without using the included software but using the Microsoft Bluetooth stack built-in to Windows. I sent e-mail to them two or three times but about a year ago when I first purchased this Bluetooth dongle, but they haven't answered to me yet so I don't expect any answers from them anymore. So I hope that someone here can help me to install this "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" thing or at least shed some light on the problem and explain what that is, what it is used for, and why I would need that.
Thanks in advance!

Hello CricFancy!
Thanks for your answer! As for the Bluetooth stack, as explained before I have given up on using the Toshiba Bluetooth stack. I am using the Bluetooth stack from Microsoft that's built in to Windows Vista. I have not tested using any of the other Bluetooth stacks mentioned on that list. I think that the WIDCOMM Bluetooth stack is primarily designed for use with Bluetooth chips from Broadcom, so I'm not so sure if it would work at all with the Billionton Bluetooth dongle (not sure what chip is used in it thou).
As for the IVT BlueSoleil Bluetooth stack, I have not tested it yet, but I think there is a big chance that it might just work well with my Billionton Bluetooth dongle, simply because BlueSoleil is de facto standard for Bluetoth interoperability with support for Bluetooth chipsets from many different suppliers. But the drawback with BlueSoleil is that it costs money. And I'm not motivated to buy it, I don't think it's worth it. I don't see why I as end-user should be financing the industry's incompetence and failure of creating a solid technological platform for Bluetooth connectivity. This problem I am having is not a problem specific to the Billionton Bluetooth dongles. It doesn't matter what brand of Bluetooth dongle you buy, Billionton or not, cheap or expensive, none of them work properly as they should. You will always run into problems with them, and it's usually problems with compatibility. And they expect me to pay extra for a software package like the BlueSoleil in order to make it work? No bloody way!
Right now I can't recall if I have installed the Bluetooth dongle (and with it the Microsoft Bluetooth stack) before or after installing Nokia PC Suite. I don't think it really matters, but I will remember to first install the Bluetooth dongle (and with it the Microsoft Bluetooth stack) next time I re-install Windows Vista.
"If you have installed compatible dongle on your pc, make sure that you insert that dongle once the pc is started and not before pc is switched on." Could you define compatible? Like I said, there is not many, if any, Bluetooth dongles that are compatible with... anything at all basically. I don't mean to be rude but Bluetooth techonology seems to be just a peace of **bleep**, as far as the compatibility is concerned. Besides, why would I need to insert the Bluetooth dongle after powering (switching) on the computer and not before that? Mine is inserted all the time, I never take it out of the computer. Why would I?
Exactly what "Nokia help file" are you refering to in that message? You mean THE Nokia PC Suite Help file? Or are you refering to some Nokia FAQ? I was unable to find that information in the Help file for Nokia PC Suite.
Reference
The exact version number of the Microsoft Bluetooth stack used on the computer is 6.0.6000, build: 16386.
