Microsoft BT desktop - Phone and Keyboard/Mouse at the same time |

I have the micrsoft bluetooth desktop bundle, which im using with (a hacked version of) the latest WidComm drivers (since the standard MS driver doesnt support anything much other than the stuff needed to run the keyboard and mouse).
When I try to access the phone from my pc everything is fine, but I can only access my PC from the phone when the keyboard and mouse are both sleeping.
Can anyone tell me if this is normal behaviour and if there is any way around it?

You will need another Bluetooth connector on your PC if you want to connect your phone at the same time. The other Bluetooth connector is already busy working with keyboard/mouse.

But I can connect out from my pc to the phone at the same time as using the keyboard and mouse, I just cant connect into my pc from the phone. I dont see what the difference is, apart from where the connection originated. |

Hmm.
Difficult to explain this one. You do not mention which phone you have, I'll assume it is an SE.
When PC is recieving messages from keyboard or mouse, it is not really able to listen to a connection request from your phone. However, when you have asked the pc to connect to the phone, then it is in control of the radio (the master if you like) and is able to send a connection request to the phone while still listening for messages from the keyboard or mouse.

Actually you are wrong, the dongle itself is fine its the drivers that dont and as I said in my post im not using the microsoft drivers im using the belkin widcomm drivers.
I havent seen this discussed anywhere else (apart from maybe a vague reference to something similar in a post where someone had copied a dll from a newer version of the drivers).
Oh and yes its a SE T610
