I am trying to find the latest Broadcom Bluetooth drivers for Windows 8 that support ALPS-UGPZ9-BCM2046
I found this one (02/02/2012,12.0.0.0010) on the Microsoft Update Catalog but its a bit oldCode:USB\VID_044E&PID_3017
Microsoft Update Catalog
I also found this driver, its more recent but its not WHQL (its 04/05/2012,12.0.0.0050 BETA signed by Broadcom)

Never mind, finally found one.
These Lenovo Broadcom drivers have a \LD sub-folder with "Win7 only Logo devices" that support my hardware, here is the link in case anybody else has the same problem I did

Found this while searching drivers for my sony vaio fw laptop using bcm2046.going to try it. thanx for sharing

More recent v12.0.0.4900 can be found here (also supports legacy bluetooth devices)
-
wow, thanks again.i tried the previous version and it's working fine.
Have you tried the v12.0.0.4900?
because it is listed as supporting 2070/20702, not 2046. I don;t know if it;s a driver package that suits all
I am running a vaio fw series laptop -
If you extract it and look in the \LD folder you will find the "legacy device" driver that supports our old bluetooth hardware, its the same version as the Lenovo. Only changes in 12.0.0.4900 are the software and a drivers (bluetooth audio, etc) in the root folder were updated, \LD driver is the same
And yes, I am using v12.0.0.4900 with my VAIO LV series -
Wow,
I went on and tried the drivers, and came back to update my post, but you already have responded,,,, oh, well, yep, it does work fine. -

Hi ricktendo64, and tnx for reply.
I can not find my device ID in device manager -
Sounds like it may be a hardware failure
Edit: try this to get a full list of Harware ID's http://216.68.161.2/SaveHwids.exe -
First of all sorry for my bad English. I download Bluetooth driver downloader from broadcom site and installed it. The installer recognized my bluetooth device and began to download specific driver, but during downloadin unexpected system standby occured and downloadin failured. I tried again but the downloader not recognized the device this time, and said "bluetooth not pluged in".Now I can not install driver.
