T61 losing bluetooth pairing

[olef]

T61p Windows 7 pro, fully patched and drivers from Lenovo.com
Nokia PC Suite ver 7.1.180.46

When setting up bluetooth connection with Nokia E52 it works fine for a while.
After first reboot or after 1 or more days the Thinkpad seems to lose the pairing with the Nokia phone.

It is then necessary to re-establish the pairing, then it works fine, just until next reboot og a couple of reboots.

Why blame the laptop, could not your phone be faulty?

Hi Realblackstuff

Sure I'll try to test with an other Phone....

But the Problem seemed to start when moving from T60 and XP pro to T61 and windows 7.

Hi Olef,
my laptop is an HP 6830s, not a Thinkpad, but I also suspect it might be somwthing in Windows 7 which is not fully compatible with the E52.
(registered here only because I found this page with googling on the problem which annoys me now very much)

I started using this phone 2 years ago, first (about a year ago) there were no problems even with Windows 7, while the same re-pairing issue like yours appeared only this year. There was no phone firmware update in that period (it has 054.003.251.03, which is more than a year old release), so I think it might be rather a Windows 7 update.

Have you found out in the meantime perhaps?

Hi THK

No not yet, I'm waiting for the possibility (time) to test with an other Nokia E52 og E51.

I'll let You know when I have somthing new

Finally i got the possibility to test with an other Nokia E52.
The Issue is still the same, so I hope someone have the possibility to suggest some possibilities to solve the Bluetooth-Issue on the Thinkpad.
