updatechange:Why not get a flash drive or external HDD to transfer your files, Bluetooth is almost useless on Pc,do you how long it will take to transfer just a file of 1gb to your PC view Bluetooth? 1 Like |

Greatzeus: Ready has those once but the need of the Bluetooth is very important cos of my job... I don't do heavy transfer via it. I'm just looking for way to drive it back on the pc |

Greatzeus: Bluetooth is not just for files transfer. It works for so many things. Like networking tethering, audio connecting remote and more. 1 Like |

updatechange: What brand is your laptop? And are u sure ur laptop has inbuilt bluetooth device? |
Re: Pls Guys Help!!! by psucc(m): 9:14pm On Aug 11, 2018 |
First offer the help by tell him on how to fix the issue before advising him on the uselessness of BT. Op, Which OS is your pc running? Did the system had an inbuilt BT or are you installing an external dongle? Did the pc had an earlier one running? Did you uninstall previous version before trying the new one? Hope answering the few will help to know where the problem comes from.\ Greatzeus: |

updatechange:Ok then. I want to assume the laptop came with Bluetooth originally pre installed from factory or else you will need an external Bluetooth device. If it does,it means the driver got missing after the laptop was re-formated. To be sure the laptop came with Bluetooth enabled,go to device manager,there should be an icon(Bluetooth device) with Yellow color,which indicates that the laptop is Bluetooth capable but the driver is missing. Right click the icon and select update driver>update automatically (must be connected to internet to do this). It will search for the right driver online and install. If it doesn't work or it's taking too long, type "the maker,the model of your laptop, followed by Bluetooth driver" on Google, select the search that has the official website of your laptop maker, download and install manually. |

onlinetomola: It's HP 15-bs020wm, touch display. I've checked the device manager and there's nothing like Bluetooth in there. That why I'm trying to see if I can get the driver online or in CD.. |

Greatzeus: Pls check the model of the pc in the comment above... i bought the lappy brand new with Bluetooth running fine but the issue started when I discovered that it consumes too much data so i try downgrade which on turn didn't make the touch working, so i had to upgrade back to Windows 10. Ever since I upgraded it the WiFi and Bluetooth failed to work tho I've sorted the WiFi.. but the Bluetooth is still not working. thanks |
Re: Pls Guys Help!!! by onlinetomola(m): 9:43pm On Aug 11, 2018 |
updatechange: Then it means ur laptop does not hav inbuilt bluetooth device. It's not about installing drivers. If u really want to use bluetooth on it then u must have to buy bluetooth dongle (external BT USB attachment) |
Re: Pls Guys Help!!! by updatechange(m): 9:48pm On Aug 11, 2018 |
psucc: *Windows 10pro *I can't find the bluetooth in the DM was running b4 I reload the window *No *Ok |
Re: Pls Guys Help!!! by onlinetomola(m): 9:48pm On Aug 11, 2018 |
updatechange: Give me like 2hours...when I get home will check my laptop for bluetooth link download. I have the one I am using on my laptop currently |
Re: Pls Guys Help!!! by updatechange(m): 9:50pm On Aug 11, 2018 |
onlinetomola: I'm a lil surprised how a brand new pc of over 110k will not come with a bluetooth. Is dongle a driver or just an external Bluetooth hardware? |
Re: Pls Guys Help!!! by Alejoc(m): 9:52pm On Aug 11, 2018 |
Powerbank for your laptop! |
Re: Pls Guys Help!!! by updatechange(m): 9:53pm On Aug 11, 2018 |
onlinetomola: Appreciate u man... but pls note, theres no Bluetooth in the DM so the only option I think is to get the bluetooth hardware and install then drive it |
Re: Pls Guys Help!!! by onlinetomola(m): 9:56pm On Aug 11, 2018 |
updatechange: Not all the laptops hav d option of bluetooth really. A friend hav a laptop that worth 340k and no bluetooth option. Bluetooth dongle is a tiny external USB device and it is plug and play |
Re: Pls Guys Help!!! by updatechange(m): 9:59pm On Aug 11, 2018 |
onlinetomola: I mean, will the bluetooth dongle install on the pc or just to be inserted when needed alone? Ad what's the possible solution for me to get the bluetooth icon back and working on the pc? |
Re: Pls Guys Help!!! by Greatzeus(m): 10:01pm On Aug 11, 2018 |
updatechange:Guy na wao oh cho So you didn't get all these Epistles I wrote up there Let me repeat myself,simply this time 1. You have a driver problem 2. There are four easy ways to solve your problem - update it from the device driver - search for it on Google and install manually. - insert driver pack CD into your disk drive and it will search and update all missing or outdated drivers on your laptop. - download driver pack.exe software and install. It will search and update all missing or outdated drivers on your laptop. I'm out. 1 Like |

Re: Pls Guys Help!!! by updatechange(m): 2:38am On Aug 12, 2018 |
@onlinetomola pls i have one more issue... that pc consumes a lot of data like its a magic. If i sub for 1.5g, it will only take me 2hrs to finish it by just using facebook. |

Re: Pls Guys Help!!! by onlinetomola(m): 2:45am On Aug 12, 2018 |
updatechange: Turn off Window Auto Update..... you can see that from Window defender option or window firewall option. You can as well search "turn off winder update" from start menu |
Re: Pls Guys Help!!! by updatechange(m): 2:30pm On Aug 12, 2018 |
onlinetomola: Ok the bluetooth is still not working. I think I will have to take it to C.V cos it still consumes data a lot. Btw my Toshiba is also running on windows 10 but the windows update pause is already off can't on. |
Re: Pls Guys Help!!! by psucc(m): 4:09pm On Aug 12, 2018 |
Then the issue is from the OS. Try to downgrade to previous version that was running on the system the BT will come back. updatechange: |
