Playbook and 9900 suddenly not speaking
Ok, I've had my pb for a year (love it!). It was originally paired with my old 9000, then for a short while, a Curve, then, for the past few months, the great 9900. Everything was working fine. Then, this morning, they're not talking. I've tried restarting (both) multiple times; battery pull; restarting one then the other; deleting the 9900 from the pb; deleting then restoring the bridge from rroyy (since I'm on AT&T). They pair, but don't connect. Suggestions? PB software 2.0.1.358; 9900 7.0.0, bundle 2392. (I tend to wait for "official" carrier releases.) Bridge version 2.0.0.30
Thanks for any help! - 05-05-2012, 05:26 PM #2
I know it sounds dumb, but double check that the bluetooth is ON for both.

Oh, believe me-very few things are dumb. But yes, they are both "on". And they each show the other-pb recognizes the 9900, the 9900 recognizes the pb. But they don't connect - I don't get the "blue" bluetooth icon. And the 9900 is connecting with my SUV, so it is working...

OK. Everything that everyone suggested was good, but the answer to all questions/suggestions was "yes". Still have no idea what the problem was. But I started over, and reloaded bluetooth on both the 9900 and the pb. And I reloaded the bridge, and paired them up. As of now, everything is back working. Have no idea what happened, or what finally solved the problem; I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
One more question - since I'm on AT&T, and have to run the rroyy version (thank you!) - is there a way to check and make sure that I'm still running his version, and NOT the AT&T version? Geez, I hope that makes sense! - 05-05-2012, 09:56 PM #9What's in a world?

Well, where did you get the Bridge you RELOADED? If from rroyy.com, you are fine.
But if from appworld, you will get the intercept message from AT&T if you try using the Browser without wifi. - 05-05-2012, 10:57 PM

Well, I had downloaded it from rroyy, but considering all the weird sh*t that happened, I just wanted to make sure. Didn't think about turning off the wifi. Duh. But then again, I'd always stayed verrry far away from the AT&T version. So didn't know if it would immediately flag, or be sneaky...
Thanks for the help and patience. CB is the best!! - 05-05-2012, 11:49 PM #12
As long as you deleted the bridge app on your phone and then reloaded the rroyy one, you should be good to go.
Glad you got it working. - 05-05-2012, 11:50 PM #13
