I'm the proud new owner of the new samsung D500 mobile phone, when I was sold the phone I asked about connectivity to my computer and they recommended the Kondor PC-MA700 usb blue tooth for my computer, I followed the instructions and installed the software and followed the instructions to find my device my phone wasn't listed and I just selected PDA in the list... I carried on installing the software and then searched for available blue tooth devices, I paired them and even entered in a pass key on my phone, but when I click on the button to launch a full connection the software tells me it can't find the phone, or that it cannot access it. I've made sure my phone has non security options enabled. I've looked on the website for Kondor and it doesn't include an update for my phone, seeing as this is Samsungs first blue tooth phone non of the other samsung drivers work.

I believe its all to do with the Driver I've selected to install and that its my proper phone I was wondering if any one has managed to find a work around, and if not whether I should be taking this blue tooth item back to the store I bought it from and asking for a refund...

Dont know if you still need the help, but I thought I'd post just in case....

Uninstall the software that came with the BT dongle, then just install the driver for it and use bluetooth places to connect to it. You need to connect on the phone, enter the pass key, then do the same on the PC. It's really simple. At least it was for me. :) If you need more help, you're more than welcome to PM me.

HI guys. well i am having the same problem as the person above has mentioned. when i bought my samsung d500. i also bought this dongle MA700 and i was told that it is universal so it will be compatible. well i did install the software and it still didnt work because it didnt have my model on it (D500) well i did check the site KONDOR for any updates but no not yet. well i also tried doing what u have said. uninstall the software and then just detect it but it still doesnt work.

have u got any idea as to how i can get this thing to communicate with my D500

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By Snake Doc · Posted

      After watching the Apple event earlier this week it is quite the contrast. Apple is going back and tweaking the code to make things more efficient in may areas of MacOS. Windows is boosting your electric build to hide their issues.

      It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI.

      Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost.

      I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.

      It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
