View Full Version : HP Bluetooth stereo headset
I bought a HP bluetooth stereo headset on ebay and I now have som problems (and some success). The setup is as follows:
1# Lifebook with cnet usb adapter bt v1.2 and bluesoleil 1.6
2# Sony Vaio S2XP using built in bt v1.2 and widcomm 4.0.1.1500
Both computers are running XP SP2.
On setup 1# everything worked in a matter of seconds.
On setup 2# the heaset can pair and when I try to connect it takes a really long time and the connecting.. dialog never dissapears. The sound in the speakers is turned of but no sound in my headset.
What am I doing wrong?

Both BT devices work with the headset if I use Bluesoleil (but the built in one has the 5mb limit),
With widcomm drivers that screen that I have enclosed is shown and nothing more happens
Hi, after I did trail error for many times... it is a matter of software stack! Now my HP BT headphone is working :D on my NC6000 (internal dongle). Here is the way to go... get the Widcomm 4.0.1.2106 (look in here (http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=215149)). Hope this help ;)
Now, I am just waiting HP for its official support on this again (this is just to proof its hardware is work and just need HP's up2date Widcomm driver).
To make this HP BT headphone work... I flashed my internal NC6000 BT module with HP dfu file that upgrade the dongle to BT 1.2 class. Anyway, try very becarful while you are doing this... plug the ac and close all the program and even better without any on the task bar. Then, install Widcomm 4.0.1.2101 and after that anything is wok! Hope this would be work on TC1000 and TC1100 too as they said to be used the same BT module as NC6000.

So what is the dfu file that you mentioned? I just wanna make sure Im on the right track before I do anything. So you upgrade the internal BT module to 1.2. Then turn off the internal BT, then install the driver and the patches. Restart and that is it?
Thanks for your clarification.
This is original firmware(1393 / 1.2) for HP NC6000 http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/att...tachmentid=7203
This firmware came with BT software support of the HP (possibly V.3B), but it was removed due to it killed off a lot of people dongle??? So, if you want to try... be prepare :D and careful.
Good luck
