    Not able to connect through bluetooth to a win11 paired laptop


    Hello!I'm trying to connect to my Lenovo idepad laptop that has got windows 11 installed through bluetooth from my samsung s10 mobile phone using the LightBlue app for BLE applications. I can exchange files outside of the LightBlue app even though I can't connect to the laptop. The problem is that may laptop doesn't even appear on the devices list on the LightBlue. I've read that the laptop is equipped with bluetooth 5.1 i.e. BLE , so in theory I should be able to connect to it from my mobile phone, what is equipped with bluetooth 5. How can I settle this issue?

    :)

    laptop Bluetooth pairs with cellphone and earbuds but will not connect to them

    The problem: my laptop's Bluetooth pairs with my cellphone and my earbuds but will not connect to them.

    Devices: HP Pavilion laptop running Windows 10 Home w/ the latest updates
    Moto G Power (2021) cellphone, Android v11
    Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro earbuds w/ the latest firmware
    Soundcore app (Android)

    The phone has no trouble connecting to the earbuds, but:

    -- The laptop's Bluetooth says it's paired with both the Moto G and the Liberty 3 earbuds, it won't connect to them. Windows' Device Manager does have both the phone and the earbuds listed under "Bluetooth."

    -- The Moto's Bluetooth lists the laptop as "Previously connected" but when I try to re-connect there's a brief flash of "Connecting" then goes back to paired-but-not-connected. It will do this over and over. The same thing happens when I try to connect the earbuds to the laptop directly from the phone.

    -- If I try to connect via the Soundcore app, using "Add device," the app searches but doesn't find the laptop. When I select "Set up manually" from the app's "Don't see your device?" screen, I get a list of other headphone and speaker, but not PCs. "Don't see your device?" on that screen says that the app only supports the devices on the list. But I assume that this won't matter if I can get the laptop connected directly to the earbuds.

    So:
    -- Why does the laptop refuse to connect to the phone or the earbuds that it's paired with? Why does the phone refuse to connect with the laptop?

    -- Things I've tried, after looking at lots of online suggestions (none of them have worked):

    : Removing the phone and the earbuds from the laptop's Bluetooth and re-pairing them again.

    : Restarting the laptop and the phone, and turning them off and then on again, separately and together.

    : Turning Bluetooth off and then on again, separately for the laptop and the phone and together for the two devices.

    : Making sure that the laptop's Bluetooth Support Service is running and is set on Automatic Startup and Bluetooth user Support Service is set on Manual (Trigger Start).

    : Checking the laptop's Bluetooth driver; Windows says it has the latest driver.

    : Running Windows' Bluetooth troubleshooter.

    Suggestions?

    Thanks --

    I'm also sending this request to HP, Motorola, & Soundcore tech support.

  3. Android Bluetooth can't pair / connect to Windows 10

    Hi, Im having trouble pairing / connecting my S9 to Windows desktop/laptops with bluetooth.

    I see the device on my phone and go trough pairing but when I'm finished on desktop/laptops it finishes with success and on phone it saiz could not pair. Sometimes it ends with adding the device to known
    list but when I want to connect phone to desktop / laptops it can't connect.

    I've tried this on 2 compleately different laptops and one desktop pc with wifi / bluetooth card without any luck. The phone connects to other bluetooth devices eg. gopro or bluetooth headphones without any
    problems. Also windows machines connects to the mentioned devices just fine.

    As troubleshooting steps I've tried suggested things in other threads as clearing all caches and files stored from bluetooth android services reseting network settings but without any luck. I've updated all
    bluetooth drivers, tried wiping cache partition. I've also triad it on other smartphones with different versions of android but the issue is the same.

    Not able to connect through bluetooth to a win11 paired laptop

    Taotronics TT-BH07 bluetooth headphones paired but not connected

    Hi everyone,

    Hopefully this is on the right board....

    I've got the Taotronics TT-BH07 bluetooth headphones which I've paired with my Windows 10 laptop and it worked fine the first time. I found that the following day, after the laptop had been switched off and started again, when I switch the headphones on, it doesn't connect to the laptop. It shows up in the list of bluetooth devices as "paired" but it doesn't connect automatically. If I remove it and go through the whole pairing process again, I can then use it.

    I would have expected it to connect to the laptop automatically when it is switched on. I've had no problems connecting it with my iPhone. I've checked online for drivers for these headphones but there's nothing available, not even on the official Taotronics website.

    Am I missing something here? Is this a bug or is there some further configuration I need to carry out on Windows in order to have the headphones connect as soon as I switch them on? Any and all input greatly received.

    Cheers,
    Dev
