    Hello everyone, maybe you can help me figure this out. Recently i upgraded the stock wireless card of the ASUS k60ij to an intel 6235 with bluetooth, the main reason was to add bluetooth to it. The installation was easy, just needed to purchase an additional adapter to convert the mini pci to full length pci card, besides that everything smooth. i installed the software provided by intel at their download center, one for the bluetooth and one for the wireless itself. i proceeded to paired my phone with the computer looking to send some pictures, pairing was done successfully, drivers were installed, however whenever i tried to send a picture or any other file it says connection failed, this happens only when i send from phone to pc, whenever i send anything from the computer to the phone it does it without any problem. my phone is a samsung galaxy s3 i even tried with a nokia n8, no luck. i am using windows 7 home premium 64, i have reinstalled the drivers several times already, removed the card and placed it in. any help you can provide me will be highly appreciated, thanks in advance.

    Good question. Have you already tried contacting Samsung support? Doesn't sound like anything is particularly "wrong" with your bluetooth on either device. I see a lot of bluetooth issues; the technology seems to need some refining. Perhaps the Bluetooth version on one of your devices is not up to date with the other? There have been quite a few revisions and bug fixes to BT over the years.

    Thank you for your quick reply, i will try to get in contact with Samsung, however I'm afraid is Intel fault. I tried with a nokia n8, Sony Ericsson c901 and the same happened, i can use the 3 phones to send files via blue tooth to an asus g73sw without any issues. Contacted Intel already, they said they don't provide support because it's a retail card in an oem system, let's see what Samsung has to say
