Explanation works also with a 2 years old Asus laptop.

Amazing, this is a 3 years problem and Blackberry does not bother with fixing this.

Thanks for the article!

Hi Rob,

I am not sure I want to dive right in and do this. Does unistalling the toshiba thing at the beginning make it anable to sync to anything else? In other words does doing the steps screw up anything (ie. being able to use bluetooth with other devices)

Thank you

Heather

Thanks a stack!
Followed instructions and got it to work on a Latitude D530 and BB8520.
Excellent post.

Rob,

I can’t thank you enough for such a complete, accurate and well written, recipe for success. I have a 4 yr old Sony Vaio VGN-TX650P. Everything was just as you described, and it now works perfectly. I spent hours on my own to no avail and in 10 minutes you had it working for me.

Wow, I actually did some programming work by myself – thanks to the fantastic explanation you’ve provided. Thanks a lot!

Just one adaptation: mine is a Lenovo Thinkpad X Series.
Everything is the same with one change:
In the bth file, under IBM it said:

[IBM.NT.5.1]
Bluetooth UltraPort Module from IBM= BthUsb, USB\Vid_04BF&Pid_0317
IBM Integrated Bluetooth= BthUsb, USB\Vid_04BF&Pid_0318
IBM Integrated Bluetooth II= BthUsb, USB\Vid_1668&Pid_0441
IBM Integrated Bluetooth III= BthUsb, USB\Vid_1668&Pid_2441

Unlike in the case presented in the tutorial (no. 7), one needs to use both segments of data retrieved from no. 5. The first will change the second line (IBM Integrated Bluetooth) and the second will change the third line (IBM Integrated Bluetooth II).

Again, thanks a lot and good luck for everybody!

Interesting. Just pulled up your blog post doing a search for XP repair.

I like XP but it can be tough to fix sometimes. (But it is still easier for me to understand than NT!)

Thanks for posting.
