Hi. I'm trying to pair an (aptx compatible) android phone to a win7 system. Scanning for bluetooth devices nothing comes up. Am I missing something?

I have been unsuccessful in pairing these headphones to ANYTHING. If you have better luck than I, I would be interested in hearing about it. (Sorry that I have been of no help). Good Luck!

You can't pair your phone with this, it's not a headset or headphone! The Bluetooth dongle is more like a phone/computer itself: you can only pair headphones and headsets with it, nothing else!

I did not get that indication. I only had issues pairing at first. Once that is done and you have the correct APP it should work fine.

Do you have a bluetooth on your tablet?Do you have an applicaion in the WIN8 store (if there is such a thing) that would map the GPS signal (for android it is called: GPS Bluetooth)If you have those on your tablet - I guess it should be functional.

I spent a long time and a lot of research to find that it is very difficult (if not impossible) to connect this to an Android device. It seems much happier with windows. This was some time ago now however and things mayhave changed.

with the headset turned off, press and hold the center control button of the headset. u will hear the headset power up tones, continue to hold the button till you hear the second set of tones. Pair the device with your cellphone by using the "configuration settings Bluetooth" on the cellphone. the cellphone should find the device and pair within a few moments.I have found this headset pairs well with most android phones, Microsoft XP and Microsoft Vista, but not Windows 7 or above that support stereo Bluetooth devices. Microsoft update must be used to update the drivers necessary to operate the headphones. with the headset turned off, press and hold the center control button of the headset. u will hear the headset power up tones, continue to hold the button till you hear the second set of tones.

Hi , I used this for HTC Inspire 4GSamsung galaxy s3 Nexus 4, and windows 7 laptops of different makes.I never found difficulty in connecting to any of the devices, I believe it can also work with windows 8. process: you need to make the devices(phone) visible and hold power button on the head phone for some time to pair them both ,

Bluetooth is Bluetooth - should be no reason why not. That said, I use mine with a Windows 8 phone. The last one I purchased is working fine. I'm probably due to lose it and have to buy another!

Looks like I was wrong about 4.0. Neither the unit itself nor anything I could find in the box it came in gives any indication of whether it's 3.0 or 4.0 (there is no Bluetooth Smart logo on the unit for example). I thought at first it was 4.0 based on http://www.portablehifi.com/reviews-best-bluetooth-music-receivers/ . However www.sonymobile.com/global-en/products/accessories/bluetooth-music-receiver-bm10/specifications says 3.0 which seems more likely. If you're hoping to use BM10's apt-x, lots of luck with that. http://www.jessebandersen.com/2013/03/csr-harmony-software-details.html gives a very clear picture of the pain you'll be in with the BM10. The method described there at November 13, 2014 at 1:36 PM worked for me but has the drawbacks pointed out below it. I bought it because it claims to support apt-x. However I've had no luck getting the AZIO BTD-V401 (which has apt-x) to connect to it---the BM10 unpairs itself immediately after pairing but the CSR Harmony software believes it is still paired. Tested on Windows 7, 8.1, and 10, both 32-bit and 64-bit with Net 4.5.1. Other BT transmitters without apt-x connect ok.

It's not really about the OS. It has to do with the hardware that you have. It just has to be Bluetooth ready. Go to connections and then follow the instructions. Or, simply look it up on the internet. Mine work just fine.

I don't have an android phone! But I do have nexus 7 with NFC and it works but not that good as with my nokiaN9 or my blackberryz10!Also have AsusHD7 with 4.2.1 with out NFC but it works with bluetooth only ,and its easy to connect cuz if the speaker is on ,u can just go to bluetooth on ur phone and press connect (NOKIA 360 SPEAKER) it will pair just like that no need to go and press the bluetooth button everytime on the speaker!

I did not use Bluetooth. And I do not intend to. I have several BT devices and NONE work 100% reliably, so to save the headache of trying to pair them all the time I did not even bother to pair the JAWBONE. So i used the old reliable jack instead... I know it works 100% of the time and saves me headache and time... Sorry I wasn't able to help.

I can't think of why it wouldn't be compatible with any modern Bluetooth enabled phone. Just set your device to scan and the headset to discover mode and it should pop right up. Enjoy!

It would be strange if it did not work with a particular cell phone operating system, since, as far as I know, Bluetooth is a universal short range radio communication standard which has nothing to do with the operating system.That's the theory, in any case! No knowing what proprietary glitches manufacturers have introduced into their version of "industry standards", unless possibly the literature says something explicit about "compatible with the XXXX standard". Some products include such statements about some features... dunno about Bluetooth.

From reading your problem, after it is installed you need to go into the device manager , remove all the Bluetooth devices that have and exclamation mark or question mark, then restart your computer and you should be fine. If you are trying to connect a Bluetooth headset make sure that it supports ad2p

I didn't try this printer with Android, but I returned it to the vendor because it wouldn't work with Windows 7. I believe that it works only with Windows XP and earlier Windows OS.

I never found it, event though there were indications that the OS supported it. I have a tiny USB dongle for my Bluetooth access.
