Also, did u follow the correct procedure? First install drivers, then plug the dongle, and then restart.

Yes I did everything. First installed drivers and then restarted and then plugged in the dongle. Windows detects the dongle but doesnt recognize because its not sp2. But why doesnt Blusoliel recognize it?

I have a widcomm (d-link) dongle with WinXP service pack 1 it works fine. I'd say try to uninstall the driver plug your dongle and see if your comp. recognizes as a usb device...when it ask to install the driver automatically choose manual, and try to point to the cd that has the driver on.

i got a cheap little toshiba one, very small little thing to, but 1000's of features and extras you can do with it, good buy i think!
it was +/- 7.5 pounds!!

ps can all b/t dongles allow you to place your phone somewhere and then take a pic from your phone but control it from your pc???

I have Blusoliel dongle and it works fine on windows xp,sp1 and sp2 but not on win 98.
Windows xp sp2 has default drivers for bluetooth devices so there is no need to use the driver cd that come with the device. I connect Nokia 6600 and SE T610 with it.

I'm currently using an MSI BT Dongle, have had it for 2 years and have had no problems sending and receiving files to Z600's, K700i and my P910i. It even works from my 1st floor bedroom donw to my living room.
One problem I've encountered, (sorry, slightly OT) is that it refuses to let me have a serial connection to the phone (so's I can browse t'net in my living room on the phone via the upstairs Broadband connection).I have trawled the numerous threads here to try and resolve, just wondered if anyone has successfully used the MSI to do this....

I have a USB 1.1 dongle from Australian brand 'Dick Smith Electronics'.
It's software clashed with XP sp2 bigtime, so I uninstalled it and and used XP instead. No more problem.

Transfer speed according to is 28kBps but in my case is 20kBps. (K700i, R2AE033) Sending 10 MP3 files - about 29MB - to my phone takes about 17 mins.

Using XP to manage the file transfer is too cumbersome though.
Download MyPhoneExplorer.
Backing up my files one at a time via XP took 3 hours.
Putting them back in after software update via MPE took 15 mins.

How do you guyz use MyPhoneExplorer? When I open it it says telephone could not be identified whereas Bluesoliel connects to my phone instantly. I have connected my dongle at a usb port. In the options it shows Com1 etc. How do i find to which com port my dongle is connected? Plzz help.
