cant able to turn on wifi/bluetooth ? - Windows 8 General

i have installed w8 pro with media centre on my LENOVO G560 LAPTOP
its has a inbuilt bluetooth and wifi...
but i cant able to turn on bluetooth...as shown in screen shot..
and sometimes same with wifi also...
wat to do plzz help

I have a similar problem with my Sony notebook except only with Bluetooth. Doesn't happen all the time but windows sometimes stops the driver from working. The only way to get it working is to reboot or disable then enable driver in device manager. Have you messed with your drivers at all cause maybe there are new ones for windows 8 if you did an upgrade from 7

I don't know if you have tried this but on some laptops the various devices are disabled unless FN+(F-Key) is pushed.
For example, I have a laptop that has wireless, it is disabled unless I do FN (Function) F10, that enables the radio for wifi and allows me to turn it on and use it... perhaps its something similar...

I have done a fresh install of windows 8
And installed drivers of w8
From downloading it from Lenovo site
And for mine laptop the keys are fn+f5
I have tried that
But from it only happening flight mode on and off

All i can say is: "Bios"
I had the same problem with my ASUS EeePC 1005HA after installing the Win8.
In the Bios the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi has been set to "Off". Have it to "On" and finished with F10 and since it works flawlessly. :good:

Touch HD: Vista bluetooth driver issue

Hi,
Having my HD since a week, I am doing synchronisation with windows mobile on vista x64.
Everything is fine using the usb data cable but not using bluetooth.
The HD is recognized as I can see HTC50 but as soon vista starts, I am requested to provide a driver that I have found nowhere.
If I go in the vista device control panel, there is a bluetooth device not working properly as no driver available.
Contacted the HTC hotline, they told me they will call me back within 48 hours.
It was 5 days ago...
Anyone having the same problem or a solution?
Friend of mine with Vista64bit also had problems, and bought Bluesoleil 64bit for better profile support. You can testdrive it with 2mb limit.

Thanks Lucas but for me it is the job of HTC to have a smooth integration within an OS like vista.
If not I will sell this device and go for an iphone.

The problem is probably the driver on windows vista, so switching to another phone will not help much. Besides..."smooth integration within an OS like vista" and "iphone" you have got to be joking!!!

Please guys,
Could someone tells me he succeeds to synchronise the touch hd with a vista x64 through bluetooth?
The HTC support finally called me back asking to reinstall windows mobile 6.1 vista x64 but didn't work...
AFAIK this will not work with Vista. At least not with the Vista bluetooth stack.
I have the same problem you describe with my Wizard and my Diamond.
After switching to the Widcomm bluetooth stack I remember being able to synchronize my phones over BT.
I don't know exactly where the problem lies and if only HTC is to blame here.
I'm sorry, I can't give you a solution here.
Still, if you like to give it a try, go to

I sync my Hermes with my Vista 64bit.
But I don't know wich BT-Stack is installed.
My laptop is an Asus V1S.
HTC customer support line
Dont hold your breath waiting for them to get back to you, i waited two months to get a reply email asking me to call their helpline.
Absolutely useless!!!!!!!
yeah, same problem at my side......
I'm using IBM T61p, and the update from broadcom site doesnt work......
Yesterday I have come across something interesting.
I had to hard-reset my device and afterwards it would not be recognized in Windows Mobile Device Center when connecting via USB cable. I heard the sound from the Device Manager, so Vista knew the device was connected, but it wouldn't show up in WMDC.
So I reinstalled WMDC, but still no luck.
But - and here comes - I was able to pair my HD over bluetooth with my PC and Vista installed the bluetooth drivers for the phone! I am now able to synchronize over bluetooth!
Sadly synchronizing over USB cable does not work any more.
For all of you having trouble with WMDC and bluetooth, try reinstalling WMDC 6.1, maybe this helps.
Regards
K_Hismoom
I too could never get a connection initiated from WMDC to the HD, with standard Vista Bluetooth. Pairing the the Vista desktop pc with the HD never was a problem, but Activesync. Then I tried to start the sync from the HD - and it worked.
Go the the Settings tab in TouchFlo3D, and use the first tab "Sync data" (Daten synchronisieren in German), and the HD connected itself to the WMDC, via the Hama Nano bluetooth dongle using standard Vista drivers. Give it a try!
OK, finally I got it work successfully.
The way to connect HD with PC, have to from HD to PC, can't from PC to HD.
I'm doing steps as follow:
1. set your PC's bluetooth as discoverable.
2. at HD side, search PC with bluetooth
3. after that, pair HD with PC
4. open your active sync on the HD, and select connect with bluetooth
5. after connected, everything works
Now I can explore my HD on my PC, everything is OK.
I have the same issue. I keep getting a message on my vista pc that Windows cannot install the device driver for a bluetooth peripheral.....very annoying!!
i also have this problem (vista cant find drivers). i'm trying to get the beta sideshow app workinng.
any help would be great.
thanks
Touch HD driver problem
I am having some bluetooth problems too but not exactly as you describe. I have a Touch HD and have it syncing over bluetooth with my Lenovo laptop (Vista32) and my PC (Vista64) fine. However, everytime I connet the phone, Windows tries to install drivers for it but can't find them. The drivers seem to be bluetooth related because if I go into Bluetooth Devices and click the Touch HD and search services, either nothing is listed or sometimes just "telephony". So I can't use any of my phones bluetooth profiles like internet sharing.
I have a weird feeling that it has something to do with the Touch HD Hotfixes that HTC has released recently.
Has anyone out there been able to fix the issue?????
luketoms, I have exactly the same problem as yours with my HTC Touch Pro and vista x64. This related to bluetooth driver in my point of view.
I haven't found any solution for that.
Has anyone a clue ?
Thx
I share your problem too, luketoms & gbouille. Espescially annoying, since I have connected my HD before sucessfully, with Vista locating the right drivers from Windows Update, displaying it as a HTC Touch HD T8282. Independent from WMDC.
Now, it seems my HD and laptop are no longer friends.
Does it say 'Missing bluetooth peripheral device'? If it does, right click on the device for properties. Click on update driver OR
Go to device manager, you'll see an unknown device named bluetooth peripheral device. Double click it to open its properties
Click 're-install driver' on the second tab.
Click Browse my computer for driver software' button
Click 'Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer'
There may be a list asking for device type, select 'bluetooth radios'
On the next page there will be a list of company names on the left side and a list of drivers on the right. In the company list choose 'Microsoft Corporation' ... not 'Microsoft'. Confirm selection is microsoft corporation.
On the drivers list there may be one or more driver versions for the mobile phone, select a newer version.
Click next, and ignore any warnings and keep pressing next
Then it shows successfully installed drivers
phabreel : it does indeed! Thankyou. Still, windows will not recognize the HD as a PAN compatible device when searching for it through the bluetooth wizard. And it has done just that before!

dear [email protected] I USE BOTH bluetooth and wifi in my xp just download this programe and install it

and sure you can use also wifi and bluetooth in cool win 7
thanks
I installed standard Windows 7 without any extra programs as described in my post "My fast HTC Shift with 2GB..."
Both Bluetooth and WiFi work absolutely fine. I use a small MS Bluetooth mouse.
The only thing to watch is that if the wireless modem AND WiFi are both enabled, switching between them can sometimes take several minutes, but usually works without changing any settings. Example - if I am at home connected using WiFi, then leave the house, the Shift takes about 5 minutes to realise the WiFi has gone and reconnect over GSM, but eventually it does happen, and automaticall. Just wait!

Please help - tethering Z VPC Z1190x - Windows 7 x64 rndis appears then disappears

Hello,
I still use a WM phone (waiting for WP7 Focus or HD7 or Omnia7 like phone or iphone 5 to come to verizon to upgrade). I have WP7 x 64 enterprise (legit) on my PC and my laptop. My PC runs the remote ndis network no issue whatsoever. Using the same phone and cable or other cables on my laptop and the ndis appears when I first plug it in and then disappears before I can even use it to browse the web.
I thought maybe it was something I installed on my laptop so I just did a fresh format - even tried my technet version of Windows 7 with SP1 integrated - it still has the same issue before I install any other drivers - the ndis adapter shows up for a second then it is gone and my phone is no longer connected for network sharing. I can however still access the storage space on my phone from my laptop. I also tried updating the inf chipset.
I have a much older Z laptop that doesn't have this issue. It only occurs with my z1190x. I was curious if anyone else has encountered and resolved this issue as I'd prefer not to replace my laptop for at least another year.
I forgot to mention, I also updated to the latest BIOS and installed all other latest Sony drivers after and it still occcurs. I've also tried disabling power savings and plugging in the laptop to power.
I'm able to ping an IP for about 5 seconds if I start in time otherwise it goes away before I can even ping.
I also just tried formatting it with Windows 7 x32 and it has the same issue.
I realize that not everyone will have experience if your hardware differs since it seems unique to this particular laptop but I was hoping someone might have experienced it and found a work around.

[Q] Problem with bluetooth

Dear all
I have issues with my bluetooth connection
everytime I tried to connect MS2 with my laptop, it's always failed.
In this case both the laptop and MS 2 detects the bluetooth connection (I even paired them). but there is no connection (i.e I can't receive image transferred to laptop from MS2 and vise versa)
In my laptop's bluetooth device, I can find my MS2 buth with yellow mark on it. When I tried to troubleshoot this problem with win7 troubleshooter, no succes. It's said that "bluetooth peripheral device doesn't have a driver - not fixed"
Have you ever met this experience?
please guys help me, it's like pain in the ass if my MS2 cannot connect to my laptops via bluetooth..
btw I use sony vaio with win 7 64 bit
MS 2 rooted with stock ROM
Best Regards
I have the same issue with HP Probook 4320s and Windows 7 64 bit, looks like a win issue... I have no problem with my other laptop running windows vista business

yeah..maybe win issue.
I've searched the bluetooth peripheral device from both manufacturer and windows site, but nothing came up with a success.
In the bluetooth device control of my PC I clicked "send files to my phone"
I choose the .apk files and hit "send" but it failed after several second.
the message was "The request could not be honored", it seems that the phone reject the request.
But then I try to send .rar and it works. So from now on if I had to transfering files via bluetooth to my MS2, I zip it first
I'm wondering if there is an option for MS2 to "receive all incoming beam"?
give it a try guys
I have tried it on my macbook, it also can't work...
Seems motorola didn't put any effort on bluetooth file transfering...
Use some e third party apps to solve it...

W8 speaker driver and internet problems

I have installed W8, and I couldn't connect to internet via wifi and even normal cable connection. I also don't have drivers for sound for my motherboard, so I'm wondering are there sound drivers for any motherboards?

Install a LAN or WLAN drivers first. Drivers for windows 7 will work on Windows 8. Also, you need to activate windows to get sound. Microsoft is taking back reduced functionality mode on windows when it's not activated. The sound thing happened to me too when you didn't activate windows. So no sound until you activate it
