@jazzmeister

thanks! i see that the latest version is now 1.4.2.10 --- does sending files from phone to pc work with this version? also, my pc does not have any bt software now, can i just install this software or do i need to install first the software that came with my ms6967? i read in the msi site that if i intend to upgrade software from version 1.3, then i need to get this key from the widcomm site?

@*

i've also read that you can use widcomm drivers instead of that from msi? what driver works best with ms6967? i remember, the first time i tried the msi driver, it took me the whole night to make it work. i haven't used my msi for quite a while, and now i intend to use it again. i've got no bt drivers installed, but i have already downloaded installers of fma and mpm. what else do i need?

what i really want is that i can send messages from the pc to another phone, send themes, pictures and tones from pc to phone and vice versa, and have a phonebook back up. are fma and mpm enough?

please help! i've been out of the loop for so long...

MSIīs latest drivers use the widcomm package. You will have to send your dongles MAC-adress to them in order to get a key for installing the software.
Btw I havenīt noticed any major differences from the version that came on CD with the dongle. Perhaps slightly faster file transfers.

@nice eyes,

no worries
phone to pc transfer works fine for me.. even using the phone to browse files in the bluetooth exchange folder in the pc is fine, only a bit slow... i usually juz use the PC all the way, to copy files from phone and to send stuff to phone. faster and u don't need to pick up the phone, yadda yadda yadda...

with the latest msi software, if you haven't installed the 1.3.1 that comes with the dongle, juz install the 1.4.2 one... oh, but if you don't have the key, then you'll have to install the earlier version to see what the dongle device address is. then juz follow the instructions to send the address to widcomm and they email you the device key for the updated software.

cheers!

Pardon me for being ignorant, but where on the Widcomm site does one download the Bluetooth software from?

All I could find on it was information about their technology solutions.

Hi,

My MSI bluetooth dongle (MS-6967) and SE T610 could not work despite upgrading the software downloaded from the MSI site. The problem was that the devices could not be paired and the services on the mobile could not found, no matter which version of the MSI drivers I installed.

After many sleepless nights, what did the trick was to upgrade the firmware of the dongle itself. Thanks to artctic oc for providing the link in http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=43929#post587060

The firmware can be found here...
(firmware ver.525 for the cambridge silicon radio chipset):
http://home.online.no/~edg-edva/fw525.dfu

To upgrade the firmware, make sure you install version 1.3.1 and above of the MSI software and run the device firmware upgrade option in the start menu. Note that the older MSI software that came in the CD does not have the firmware upgrade option so you must upgrade to the later version from the MSI site first. Btw, tried getting the security key for the 1.4.2.10 version but it did not work. I ended up using the 1.3.1 version which works fine.

Hello,

I encountered serious problems after MSI bluetooth software installation. After installation of the software for bluetooth dongle the TCPIP subsystem on my Windows XP pro SP1 machine stops working, tcpip stack reset did not help. Only MSI software uninstallation and system restore corrected the problem with network, but i cannot use the dongle without their software of course. Has anyone the same problems? Would MS native bluetooth support solve the problem? Would the Widdcom software solve the problem?

thanks for your help

I'm having the same problem but then on Windows 2000 SP3 (or SP4). Anyone have a solution to this?

How do I reinstall just the network drivers? I tried removing the TCP/IP protocol and putting it back, but that didn't help either. I also tried reinstalling SP3 but that didn't help either.

I tried both the 1.3.1 and 1.4.2 drivers. Allthough I could only try the 1.4.2 drivers AFTER I installed the 1.3.1 version since I needed the tag to get a key.

The weird thing is that I had this working before. Even after upgrading to SP4. I had a harddisk failure and I need to reinstall everything and now I install the Bluetooth dongle and my TCP/IP connection goes to hell. I just found out I can't print over TCP/IP either.

Maybe the drivers can only be installed initialy on an SP1 version or something?

I'd be happy if I got my network working again though. I need to use another computer for connection to the internet now.

I tried both version 1.3.1 and 1.4.x and the first one seems like much better. I think that version 1.4.x is for windows server or something like that. You can actually uninstall those drivers and install version 1.3.1. I did that two times on my comp with xp pro and service pack 1.

I tried both 1.3.x and 1.4.10 BT drivers but with both i have the same problems with TCPIP. Only uninstallation of the drivers and system restore helped . I solved the problem later by running the WinsockXPFix.exe app after BT drivers 1.4.10 installation.

In win2k the TCP/IP protocol can be unistalled and then installed again after restart. It should be uninstalled first on all network connections or adapters. May be this will help you to solve the problem on Win2k. This is not possible with Windows XP, the TCP/IP cannot be uninstalled here.
