I try to send a file after phone is paired with my computer and it tries to install bluetooth drivers but fails. I've looked around for drivers but keep coming up empty. Not even any luck from Motorola site. Anyone know how to remedy this? Thanks.
I send various files back and forth from my computer and phone. I like using the convenience of bluetooth.
You can pair a device with a computer. All this does is allow the devices initial communication I believe. You need proper drivers for each device, because they are not all the same unfortunately, so each device will work properly. Could be remembering incorrectly though.
Running windows 7 64bit
A couple of things. I know you have had success pairing other phones to your computer, just the X2 wont work. But, do you have another computer with bluetooth? Maybe you could try and pair your X2 with that. Or, if you have a friend or work computer you could use as a test, that would be good. If you can pair the device with another computer, at least we know it's a problem with the computer, if you can't, we can assume it's the phone. Probably need to figure that out first, ya know? Sounds like it's the phone, but, good to narrow down the problem.
Second, sometimes when there are driver issues, you'll see a white flag in the system tray. Do you have this icon? If so, click it and see if there are any driver issues Windows wants to resolve.
Yep. No luck.
Thanks for the idea. I tried that. No luck.
You tried clearing the cache and stuff? Or you tried a factory reset?
Sorry for the confusion. I tried both.
Thanks again for the help!
Mine is a Galaxy Nexus. I might give it a try. I've been having it drop data signals too.
Same Problem here with my Droid RAZR. It will only install driver that will allow the phone to be used as a modem. The 4 other drivers fail. Ive tried linking bluetooth with a year old desktop, and a brand new laptop. same problem. I had the same problem with my DroidX. I got frustrated an gave up.
To communicate with the PC via Bluetooth, It does in fact need ahve bluetooth drivers installed. Microsoft does not develop drivers for 3rd party hardware. Motorola needs to get off thier butts here and develop a compatable driver for the operating system. very dissapointing! :-\
