I've a problem faced in HID connections via bluetooth..

I'm currently using a Dell laptop with a built-in bluetooth module. Whenever I pair the phone with the lappie, it shows up the services available to use.

It has the "mouse & keyboard" option, but when I click on it, the software searches for mouse and keyboard, other than the phone.. * But why the heck it shows up in the list of services *

I wonder, has anyone experienced this problem too ?
Do I need a special software to make this work ?

Tried searching (I used the search function) but there isnt any guide to make this work. And oh yes, I'm running on Windows XP SP2.

I hope to receive a favourable reply. Thank you.

AFAIK, phones from K750 onwards have limited bluetooth functionalities. it may be your phone's bluetooth that has the problem, or it could be the driver for your laptop's bluetooth. so there could be two solutions:

  • if the former is the case, then there is nothing you could do about it, except change phones, which would be out of the question...
  • if the latter is the case, you may try searching for a better driver for your bluetooth device and hopefully fix your problem...

hope that helps!
