I can connect my Galaxy Note II to my car and TV's Bluetooth Audio and play music.
However in Windows 8, I can only Pair, but no option on Phone to connect to Audio Device etc like with the tv and car's connections.
There are options to send file on my laptop, but no audio streaming etc as expected.
Please check and assist if possible.
Windows Drivers related?
Hi,
I think it is windows drivers related.
Is anyone aware on drivers for this?
USB drivers are ok, but obviously additional drivers for USB?
Kind Regards
brandt
support please check also
anyone??
I installed Keis air also and no change here :<
Same here.
Got a W8 64b Pro with Intel Bluetooth Driver correctly installed.
When I discover services on my note 2 from my computer it did not show "Audio" (on W7 and Motorola's phone all worked correctly).
Any idea why we did not have the audio service on Note 2 ?

Alright, so I'm trying to get my EVO to connect to Windows 7 64-bit in order to try out the Bluetooth tethering (via android-wifi-tether) and FTP server. I can connect the phone via bluetooth to my laptop, but as soon as I do, it just disconnects. I can't get them to reconnect (either from Windows or EVO). Windows shows no services, hardware, or anything.
Do I need a special driver or app for Windows? Some hidden setting in the EVO? A known bug?
And please refrain from super-obvious things, I've updated the driver for my bluetooth adapter, I've Googled around, and tested this on a Windows XP netbook, it paired and could transfer a file using OBEX just fine.
I am having this same problem. Have you been able to find any solution to this?

I'm having the same issue. I've been scouting forums, have paired and unpaired my EVO and Win7 Home Premium x64 Laptop over and over again, I've paired it from my phone and paired it from the laptop, and no difference.
I'm able to push files from my laptop to my phone but the reverse doesn't work at all. I get several errors which I believe are associated to the fact that my phone's bluetooth icon on the laptop shows no services or bt profiles in the properties box.
Did either of you figure this out?

SOLVED.
I went to my Laptop's manufacturer's website (lenovo) and downloaded the latest BT driver - an update from 2 months ago, although my last update was only 6 months ago.
It loaded all of the services I needed and once I paired my EVO to the computer about 7 different BT services were installed and connected to my EVO.
Hi, I am wondering if it were possible for somebody on here to write an app or pc program that turns my phone into a bluetooth dongle via usb? Because I have a bluetooth headset that I want to use on my pc but I can't use it because I don't have a bluetooth dongle. Now instead of going out and buying a bluetooth dongle, I figured since I have an android phone that it would somehow be possible to use my phone as a bluetooth adapter/dongle that my pc can use? I'm using windows 7 amd 64-bit, and a sprint galaxy nexus. (please move to appropriate forum, idk how i got in the galaxy note ii forum i thought i was in sprint galaxy nexus forum)

never seen such a thing. would be cool. i recommend just going and buying a dongle. they are super super cheap anyway. so very little harm will be done with that money.
I don't know if it can and never seen a project like this, but I think you better off buying the USB-Bluetooth adapter. It's extremely cheap now a day. And you gotta ask yourself, is it very worth it to wait? Even if it exist, it wouldn't be as capable as the real one, and then you have to worry about some other stuff what happen when the phone ring, does the phone have the head set or the PC? Seriously, go buy the adapter unless you want to scratch your own itch.
thanks for the feedback. I got a bluetooth adapter recently but it says my headset has no device drivers to install so it doesn't work for me :/ Idk how to make it work
ah, i had that on win7. doesn't come with a2dp drivers. you need your own (laptops tend to come with the manufacturers own) like blue soleil or some such

Hey man. So, actually making your phone into a bluetooth dongle is a lil' bit nasty due to permission issues. BUT, there is another way. As you are willing to use this "measure" to stream your PC's audio to your bluetooth headset, you can download an audio streaming app from the appstore (such as SoundWire for Android), set up the connection between your PC and your smartphone, and THEN you share your phone's media through the phone's bluetooth service to the headset. Maybe there can be a loss of syncronization for games and videos, but music will be just fine! Hope it helps

Hmm. Well, things like USB WiFi dongles and USB bluetooth dongles do exist, so USB had nothing against wifi or bluetooth. And those dongles work just fine even when connected through a USB hub. And as you say, your device has both WiFi and bluetooth. So, the simplest possible solution would be to have the PC view the phone as a USB hub, and the phones WiFi and bluetooth can be shown as USB dongles connected through this "hub". Infact, with that option, it should be possible to share lots of things between the PC and phone. You could share NFC, or even a fingerprint scanner, if you have them. Internet is obvious, because we already have USB tethering for that. I believe we also have apps that let us use the smart phone camera as a webcam? That too can be covered in this. Heck, even a GPS for the PC. (Or laptop?) Anyway, I am not much for coding and such, so if someone finds a way to implement it, please let me know? (If this becomes an app, then send me a free link, perhaps?)
I'm trying to connect my Nexus 7 2013 with android 4.4 (didn't work on the 4.3 either) to my windows 7 PCs (both 64 and 32 bit). The pairing works but Windows won't install a driver. My Windows 7 Device Manager shows Bluetooth Peripheral Device - driver not found. I cannot find a driver anywhere.
I contacted Asus and asked which driver I can use and they replied that no such driver exists:
Dear Mister XXXX,
Thank you for your trust in our technical support.
Concerning the fact that you can’t find the Bluethooth drivers for Windows 7 I regret to inform you that doesn’t exist these types of drivers.
If your desire is to activate a tethering function, I regret to inform that this manipulation will not work, because the system of your product doesn’t support it.
Thank you for your understanding.
Have a nice day.
Best Regards,

Did anyone find a compatible driver? I searched already for a few hours the net and can only find problems with the bluetooth concerning connecting to devices like keyboard.One guy mentioned that bluesoleil provides a software which might work. Has anyone tried that?
My ultimate goal is to use my PC as a Bluetooth speaker for my tablet,

Even I need a way to set this up. Any one knows the solution?
You shouldn't need to install a driver on the desktop or laptop. That defeats the whole purpose of Bluetooth as conveniently connecting two devices.
What kind of Bluetooth adapter do you have on the PC, built-in or an external adapter? Fire it up, turn on Bluetooth on your N7, and pair one to the other.
The dongles driver was all I needed. Then I just paired and connected like I do every Bluetooth device. My understanding is that there is no need for drivers for the tablet, simply for the Bluetooth dongle. After that they just pair the way all Bluetooth pairs.
Hi guys,
I'm looking for a software which will allow me to connect any android phone to a Windows laptop or a PC and then use the Windows device as a phone - to make & receive calls and to send/review/reply to messages.
This is already implemented in a lot of vehicles when you pair the phone and then call/answer through the car's UI. I'm looking for the same thing but using a Windows device (laptop, PC - with Bluetooth) like the car in the example.
Can you advise me about such a software?
Thanks!
Solution found!
I found a solution for Samsung devices and it's called SideSync. It's a Samsung app for the phone and a pc version with Windows and Mac support. It allows you to do everything on the PC which is great.
Since I recently switched from HOX to Galaxy S6 Active it works great for me. Don't know about other phones thought. It may be restricted to Samsung devices only? You can try and advise if it works for you.
Hello,
I am having big trouble to get that phone working on Windows 10 via Bluetooth.
Windows 10 finds the phone, I can connect both, but Windows just won't install drivers for it.
It lists the phone in device manager under Bluetooth devices but also shows a device "SMS-MMS" in other devices. definitely something phone related since it disappears as soon as I disconnect it from bluetooth.
All other devices I have work like a charm with my PC.
The HTC 10 works including audio streaming on my laptop with windows 7 and its internal BT device!
Automatically driver download in Win 10 is turned on, also installes HTC Sync Manager but no luck.
Google is useless.
Anyone an idea?`
Sending and receiving files works btw! Its just media audio what won't show up as an option in the phones connected devices list!
EDIT: my BT dongle is an ASUS USB-BT-400, I am not sure but could this thing be the issue?
EDIT EDIT: installed the ASUS on my laptop now (the internal BT device is turned off). Windows is installing tons of drivers, which I thought is perfect, but then it can't establish an audio connection despite a media profile being active in the phone's linked devices list. It acutally tells me connection failed. Totally lost here
