Quick question all - I've been digging in the system and on Google but I can't find a solution.

My K750i started to have lockups while using Bluetooth (how I sync to my Powerbook) and then the Bluetooth stopped turning on. You'd hit the button to turn it on but it never comes on (and the software recognizes it as being off, still offering to turn it on). Master reset didn't help, nor did running the latest sony update.

So now I have a phone I can't sync phone numbers into - feh! How 1998! Any ideas on how to kickstart Bluetooth?

Thanks!

Crap - yeah, I'm back to the P800 brick I used to run.

No more SE phones for me - this is my fourth K750i in the 2-year contract. Crap joystick, immense amount of dust gathering inside the case, funky reboots. I'm in my 40s - I treat my toys well, and this thing is just junk...

I can't wait for an iPhone...

I wonder if there is there a separate bluetooth driver that can be installed? I'm also presuming that this is a surface-mounted Bluetooth, not something that can move out of a socket from shock.

The thing was at best sporadic before the master reset and SE update. Now nothing comes up.

I think I have to take this sucker apart now.. feh!

Try taking the phone apart, then make a check of the BT module...

how about re-flash? thats better than SEUS and MR, but its quite annoying to get there and wait just for only a phone...
