Laptop can find the phone and connect to it as shown in the screenshot. However, no connections are listed as available after clicking 'next' as directed.

I could not get the Nokia 700 to connect using bluetooth DUN, to a laptop running WinXP.Really weird since this has been working for me for years with every other phone.I am using web/web which is the usual pair, but this is contract internet, not PAYG...The connection goes through the login/pwd bit OK and then fails when it says registering your computer on the network', with Error 734, terminated.Googling suggests things like disabling the multilink option but it doesn't help.I can get a connection using Joikuspot, so maybe this is a good time to drop the bluetooth But, after a lot of googling, it was solved, so here it is for those (many) with the same problem:One needs to add+cgdcont=1,"IP","internet"into the modem initialisation string box (windoze XP).Totally bizzare. I found a clue to this in some vodafone forum.Disabling multilink in the Network tab for the network connection is also seemingly required, and this proved quite difficult since windoze keeps putting that option back in.
It is curious since the phone already knows the APN because mobile internet works on the phone itself, just by inserting the SIM card. Clearly it uses the auto-APN protocol to get that. Similarly when I use Joikuspot touse the phone as a modem - no APN config needed there either. why use bluetooth DUN when one can just use wifi, with Joikuspot? Well, JS is not a great solution either. It delivers a computer-computer wifi connection which most windoze computers will not connect to, or not reliably, unless configured to ignore all "infrastructure" (i.e. access point) wifi networks. If there is a normal wifi network in range, the laptop will keep trying to use that instead and won't connect to the JS one. Also, JS offers only WEP encryption which while easily secure enough for this type of occassional usage is not correctly supported by many very modern computing devices (it confuses the h*ll out of Apple IOS stuff, for example) which support only WPA etc. Also wifi uses a lot more battery power in the phone than bluetooth.

I have an iPhone 4 and recently saw a Kickstarter account for a Bluetooth watch that displays notifications and can control your music player on your phone.My question is, I also have a Bose Sound link which connects to my phone through Bluetooth.Can my iPhone have two Bluetooth connections so that my phone can play music through my Sound link, but at the same time allow for the watch to connect to the phone and control the music player?

iPhone 4, iOS 5.0.1

I have myiphone 6 withios 8.1.1 connected to my 2013 Honda Pilot with Bluetooth. Everything works fine when I am listening to music with the native music app. However, when I make or receive a phone call thebluetooth drops in and out every couple of minutes. How do I stop it from dropping out? It makes usingbluetooth for a phone call useless. And why would it work for hours on end if it is only playing music but won't work for more than a minute on a phone call?

way to check the Bluetooth protocol version being used for a given device connection on the iPhone? Is there a status screen or logfile somewhere?
E.g., if I connect a headset, is there a way to verify whether the iPhone is communicating with it using 3.0, 2.1, 2.0, etc? This isn't the same as what the device specs say it supports as (all?) Bluetooth devices are capable of falling back to earlier protocol versions. I'm envisioning a situation in which a 2.1 version device isn't fully compatible for whatever reason and so falls back to 1.1- how would you know this has happened?
I want to be able to verify what protocol a given device is actually communicating at for various reasons (security, power usage, etc.)...

I loved my Lumia 1020 but could not get music to play via Bluetooth in either of my cars no matter what I tried. It says it connects fine for phone and music and I can receive calls, I can hear and dictate texts, but when it comes to music the phone plays one song for 1 second and then continually loops trying to play the song but only ever makes it 1 second. In the Toyota, it also doesn't send any song information. I have unlinked bluetooth, relinked it, reset the phone, disconnected voice and left music, and had no luck.
My cars are a 2011 Tundra Platinum and 2013 Infiniti JX. I've also read some people had the same issue with Audi and Lexus.
Additionally, both of my cars have USB jacks to interface and play music through with the Navigation/sound system directly and that doesn't work either. The cars completely don't recognize it. Androids and iPhones all work flawlessly.
I honestly had become a big Lumia 1020/WP8 fan and love what Nokia offers in software. I actually really like the WP8 interface as well but not having Bluetooth connectivity to my vehicles (for both voice and music streaming) is a deal-breaker.

I've got Googe maps, BTC Mapper, and Endomondo on my phone. They all use GPS to track you, plot where you have been, and save tracks for you to chek out later. They work nice. I use them a lot for walking, running, and bicycling.My question though, is the GPS actually using the GPS satellites in orbit, or is it using triangulation off several cell towers to get my location?If it is using GPS satellites, why is it that if I turn off all connections (Mobile Network Sprint & Wi-Fi), I lose all GPS connections as well? If this device is atually getting signals from the satellites, what difference does it make if I am in a cell coverage area or not?I've read that, yes, the location is retrieved from the satellites, but to plot it on the maps takes the cell connection. If that is the case, is there an app that just logs longitude and latitude every second and stores it in a file that can be dumped to a map at a later time?
The reason I bring all this up is because, later this summer, I plan to go on a 2-week long cruise that will visit about a dozen different Carribean islands and I'd like to track my location. At sea, I won't be able to pick up a cell signal. Will the GPS tracking apps like google, still work? Even if I can't get a cell signal, my GPS should still be able to pick up satellite signals

I've recently bought a Nokia 700 and for few days I'm experiencing this weird problem.Every single connection drops (3G, Wi-Fi and USB. Haven't tested NFC yet) at random times and I can't reconnect. It always says after that it can't connect and the connections are unavailable.After turning the phone off and then on again, everything is back to normal. I can normally connect to the 3G connection, Wi-Fi and USB.It's pretty annoying as I always have to restart my phone in order to connect via USB or to the Internet when it happens.Anyone else who is experiencing the same problem or has any solutions to this?

I am going abroad and want to make sure that I cannot use GPRS/WAP while abroad. I still want the wifi feature. How do you dissable it to ensure that it cannot come on by itself and will only ask if needed. Any help would be appreciated.

I have a 920 that has given me fits since I got it a week ago. I have had this happen at several hotel, work and home locations.What happens is that at some point during the day, I want to connect to the Wi-Fi whereever I am at. So I turn on the screen, go into Settings/Wi-Fi and I am not able to connect to anything.The Wi-Fi option is turned ON but the toggle for it is grayed out and you cannot change it (to ON or OFF). Also, there is a progress bar scrolling across as it indicates "Searching". It will stay that way for HOURS if you wait that long.I also noticed that if I go to Bluetooth settings at this point, I cannot turn that On or Off either (although the toggle is not grayed out).The rest of the phone and app functions work normal at this point.The only way to get WiFi or BT working is to reboot the phone, then everything will work for a while and at some point in time, this will happen all over again.

As I understand (at least is what the user's guide describes), the N97 connects to WiFi via 802.11b/g...Anyone knows if there is a way to connect the phone via 5Ghz WiFi connections?I have too much equipment in my house using the 2.4Ghz channels (bluetooth, PS2 controllers, etc), and I'm using a WiFi router in 802.11a/n with 5Ghz range to lower the interference.

I just installed Belle FP2 on my 808 PureView to see if any of the FP1's wireless bugs were fixed. But so far it doesn't look too good.
If I create a custom internet target for my job needs and put some WiFi access points there, the phone still makes duplicate copies of them to Internet target upon connect.

I'm trying to connect to my computer that runs Windows XP Service Pack 3. The computer recognizes the cell phone and installed drivers (contents are available through Explorer). But the PC Suite (v 7.1.51.0) doesn't show any available connections. The option for choosing cable, IR or bluetooth is greyed out. I tried running Nokia PC Suite Cleaner 7.1.1 and reinstalling PC Suite, but nothing changed.

I am trying for some time now to set up my email account on my new Nokia E72 without any success. I hit the email setup button, chose the right access point provided by the mobile company and after I enter the email and password the message "maximum number connections in use. Close an active connection first" appears. Here I only have two options OK or CANCEL. Hitting CANCEL it just gets out of what I was doing. Hitting OK it only gives me the acces point which I am using without any other option so I have to close it. Could anyone help me with this problem please?

After just paying alot of monies for this handset, I feel let down...
1. Most obvious and talked about is the OVi Maps update. Iv read this is on its way, I hope its soon!
2. No MMS
3. No SMS without conversations, I hate conversations. I hate that nokia are copying iphone...
4. No copying of old SMS to N900. I was a N86 8MP user before this handset arrived today. I have about 1 to 2 THOUSAND messages, from over the years and Im a texaholic, so I NEED to save them....
5. No extra data connections, With O2 UK, I would normally have 3 connections:
O2 MMS
O2 WAP
O2 GPRS
But in addition to this, the new sim cards, automatically have a O2 postpay wap connection. So, I would like to have as many connections as I can!
6. No editing contact number description text. With, another let down, I have hundreds of contacts and about 10-30 of those have more than 2 or 3 numbers. For example, my workplace contact. I had like 10 to 11 numbers, plus other details, such as notes and emails all stored under 1 contact! For each number and note, I edited the text so I know exactly whos number it was, or what that text related to
I sure there's more, but atm since turning it on, charging, updating to latest firmware and first time boot with sim card, this is what I have found so far...

This is my first smartphone to boot.
1) Where can I get the Adobe Reader for free? Or is the only one from the Ovi store?
2) I created an extra WLAN...profile for my phone (so I have MyNetwork and MyNetwork(01) in my connection manager), how do I delete extra connections?
3) Can I set it up so I don't have to use the phone lock on the side? I still want to put in a pin, I just hate using that switch...I don't understand why I can't just tap the screen.
4) How do I use handwriting for website password boxes?

I have had my E72 for about 6 weeks and have been very happy with the performance. The last couple of days it's phone clarity has deteriorated so I had tried to reset to factory settings. Each time I get into factory settings and try to get into it the phone asks me to 'end all active calls and connections first' however there is nothing running or connected. I turned the phone off and took out the battery and tried again - this time I was able to put in the code but then it came back as the previous request and wouldn't allow me to go any further.

My E71 used to work fine in car hands free via bluetooth - now it pairs OK but then gives "unable to create bluetooth connection" message. Another E71 works fine.
I did try (twice) to e-mail Nokia care - each time I filled in all details only to get a Gateway timeout message when I tried to send it - and all details wiped out!

Ever since I got my T-Mo 8900 last September I have never really gotten the GPS to work quite right. When I use the maps or apps that use the GPS I never can get a connection, so I assume by default it locates me my cell towers (which always always points my locations incorrectly by a half mile or so). Is there something I am missing in the setup or options. Or is this just a result of crappy GPS capabilities on the 8900's part?
