Droid bionic connects to pc  win 7 64 bit  in bluetooth just fine, can play music through pc speakers, transfer files , use as a modem.  but in bluetooth devices it shows bionic with a yellow triangle. i right click on it and says trouble shoot . says unknown device, no driver installed. it did load several drivers when i first connected, but this one didnt for some reason. have been to windows update with no luck. bluetooth adapter on pc has latest driver. i have latest motorola usb drivers installed also on the pc.. I may have to contact tech support at motorola for this. also i will try reinstalling my adapter drivers. if anybody has any ideas, please let me know ty.

I tried several other solutions but none of them worked perfectly as the last one that I tried after vigorously searching online.

Here's what I did when bluetooth on Windows 7 PCs that I had:

- Download the 'Windows Mobile Device Center' ( current version is 6.1 ) which you can download it from http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobi...-download.mspx
this works for both Vista and Windows 7. I've tried it on both.

- Install the downloaded software but it may not look like it worked on Windows 7 PCs. Vista automatically configures the settings on the bluetooth devices but for those who have Windows 7, here are the things you should do:

- Go to 'Device Manager' from 'Control Panel' -Or- just right-click on Computer Icon and choose 'Properties' and then click on 'Device Manager'.

- You'll see an 'Unknown Device' named 'Bluetooth Peripheral Device'

- Right-Click it and click on "Update Driver Software" -Or- anyway you find it easy to bring up the Update driver window.

- Click "Browse My Computer for Driver Software" button.

- Click "Let Me Pick from a List of Device Drivers on my computer".

- Select 'Bluetooth Radio' from the list if it asked you to select and then in the next window, it will show a list of drivers with Company Names in one list and Drivers in another. In the Company List choose 'Microsoft Corporation', not only Microsoft.

- From the drivers list there may be one or more drivers with the name "Windows Mobile-Based Device Support" with different driver versions. Select one or the latest.

- Ignore any warnings and keep pressing next and then Finish at last. If all goes well, the last screen will show the message that device driver is successfully installed.

Now, after manually updating the driver for your bluetooth device, in 'Device Manager' when you click on 'Bluetooth Radios', it should display one more item which will say 'Windows Mobile-based device support'.
