• Bluetooth Adaptor ( BCM2046) Driver for Windows XP SP2/SP3 Chances are you just reinstalled your computer to remove all the junkware thats included with PC's and you want to get your bluetooth dongle working without all the bloatware. Well with this package, you can use your BCM2046 bluetooth adaptor in Windows using the built in bluetooth stack. I have created and tested this myself on my new Dell Mini 9 which I reformatted to clear the Dell junk off. What I have done is modified the Bluetooth driver file that comes with XP SP2/SP3, to include this dongle by adding its hardware ID to the supported devices list. Before you can install this, you must make sure you have updated your XP to at least Service Pack 2, as this included the Bluetooth Support Addon. To install, download and extract all the files somewhere, like for example on your desktop in a folder called Bluetooth drivers.

Then plug the stick in, Windows will fail to find the drivers and ask you to either provide a location for them, or provide a CD. Provide the location and give Windows the folder location of the extracted drivers. Windows will now install the drivers and your Dongle will be ready for use. You should now be up and running with the Windows Bluetooth Interface, which you can find in Control Panel or in the System Tray. You have now got your Bluetooth Adaptor to work fully without having to install bloatware like WIDCOMM bluetooth stack.

If your using Windows Vista (either 32-bit or 64-bit) you may be interested in the Vista version of these drivers located at: (Will be coming soon). Widcomm and Nokia PC Suite Bought a Dell Mini and I absolutely love this machine. I did discover, however, that the Widcomm Software that comes preinstalled on it is not compatible with Nokia PC Suite. I thought I was going to have to hack or tweak something (I hate that stuff) but, thanks to you, I was pleasantly surprised. I uninstalled the Widcomm Software through add/remove programs and rebooted.

The Mini found the Bluetooth module and reinstalled it but it wouldn't work. I downloaded this driver, un zipped the files, went into the device manager and told the Bluetooth module to update the driver, directing it to the new driver. The driver installed successfully and Nokia PC Suite now works great.

No hacks required! Lenovo S10 Bluetooth with MS drivers - Solved Hi, I wanted to install the Microsoft drivers posted by Nimrod on my new Lenovo S10 Netbook to get rid of the horribly buggy and bloated Widcomm drivers that came pre-installed. The Lenovo S10 uses the same Broadcomm BCM2046 hardware as the Dell Mini 9, unfortunately the drivers posted above did not install. When follwing the procedure Windows displayed a message that it cannot find any drivers in the location where I extracted the files. Solution is that you need to edit the hardware ID in the BTH.INF file in the folder where you extracted the files. Here the instructions: - download and extract the file posted by Nimrod - open the BTH.INF file with notepad - go to line 78 which is Generic Bluetooth Radio= BthUsb, USB Vid_413C&Pid_02B0 change the last part to USB Vid_0A5C&Pid_2150 - Save the file and then continue with the procedure described by Nimrod, now Windows will find the drivers, install them and they work perfectly on the Lenovo S10! You can do the same thing for any other notebook / netbook with similar hardware, just find out the hardware ID you need to use in the BTH.INF file in the device manager in the properties of the Bluetooth Device.

Hope this helps some users. Tank you, thank you, thank you!!!! I’ve been trying to get my BT to work as it's supposed to for several months now, and thanks to this I’ve now got it working. Before I couldn’t get my phone and laptop to automatically connect when in reach. I’ve tried both Widcomm and Bluesoil. Funny Softwares For Pc Free Download.

But as I wrote this got it working! But today I discovered a problem.

This driver hack doesn’t support the service remote access (DUN). So far I’ve just spend an hour looking for the reason, but as I understand there is something missing in my computer. There should be a thing in device manager under BT-unit called RFCOMM-protocol TDI, but it’s not there.

My laptop can discover the service on my phone but can’t connect to it. Every time I try, the error message “Access denied” occurs.

And if I look in my phone what services my laptop provides it only says serial port and personal network. Anyone know how to fix this problem? I absolutely don’t want to switch back to Widcomm! I have a Belkin BT dongel based on BCM2046 chip, and got it working with this driver by adding the line 'BLUETOOTH USB +EDR ADAPTER v2.1 UHE= BthUsb, USB Vid_050d&Pid_016a' to bth.inf.
