    Hey guys,

    I'm having some issues with Bluetooth. It started few weeks back. Before i would turn it on, connect to my laptop and the sound from my BlackBerry came out of the speakers attached to the laptop. But recently it stopped working. Today after i updated to 10.2 i still can't connect. The message I get is the following : can't connect. you must turn on internet tethering on your blackberry device.
    If i turn on the tethering it connects, but I don't want to do it that way.
    Any advice is appreciated.

    By the way 10.2- simply amazing! Enjoy it people

    Try deleting the BT profile on both devices and then pair it up again.

    I have the same problem. Now everytime I have to turn on the Internet tethering if I want to send/receive files via bluetooth. Completely fail with my computer, ok with other Bb device....it not supposed to work that way. Any idea to fix this guys?

    Hey. For me the solution was to update the PC Bluetooth driver. I guess that even if there isn't a new driver a simple reinstall should do the trick
