Windows 10: Bluetooth/ android phone not connecting to my laptop

Hi all, I have recently bought both a new phone and a laptop. My new and old phones are both Samsung, though the old one is an A12, and the new one is an A13. My old laptop is an old HP one and my new one is an HP Envy x360 laptop. My problem is that both phones are able to pair to my laptops, however, they are unable to connect to my laptops. I have been on the HP website and downloaded all necessary drivers onto my new laptop, and also been on the troubleshooter settings page, which has not helped at all as the new phone is still unable to connect to my new laptop. Another problem is that I

MyPhoneExplorer will not connect Android 12 cellphone (Bluetooth, USB)

I have Samsung S21 5G phone with Android 12. I have a laptop with Windows 10 called EventHorizon.

I had tried this before but couldn't get it to work. This time I was determined to succeed. I got my phone to work with MyPhoneExplorer using WiFi, Bluetooth, and USB.

1. With WiFi I had to enter the PIN on the PC from the my MyPhoneExplorer app on the phone. Once done it connected OK.

2. With Bluetooth it was pretty easy once the phone was paired with the laptop. It connected right off once I told MyPhoneExplorer to connect.

a. Pair the phone to the computer. It will ask to verify PINs on both ends. Once done it will show Connected for calls.





b. In MyPhoneExplorer in Settings select Bluetooth





c. Select Connect





d. On the phone if you open the MyPhoneExplorer client you will see you are connected with Bluetooth.






3. With USB it wasn't as straightforward. It kept giving the same error as you had and said I needed to give permission to connect. I was stumped because I didn't see any new notification on my phone. Here are the steps I finally had to do. Note before I connected the USB cable I disabled WiFi and Bluetooth on the phone. Otherwise, it would get confusing because it would try to connect with one of them.

a. In the MyPhoneExplorer Settings I selected USB cable





b. In the phone Settings I enabled USB debugging and selected OK. Important I left this open.





c. In MyPhoneExplorer I selected Connect





d. On the phone I got a popup notification asking to allow the connection. I selected Allow.





e. On the phone open the MyPhoneExplorer client. You will see the phone is connected to the PC with USB cable.

 

How do I connect to internet via bluetooth tethering?


I need to connect my laptop to the internet using my android phone. I've paired both devices and I've enabled bluetooth tethering on my phone. My phone is listed when I navigate from 'join a personal network' in bluetooth options in taskbar but I cannot connect using access point, only direct connection is listed as the option.

 

Android Bluetooth can't pair / connect to Windows 10

Hi, Im having trouble pairing / connecting my S9 to Windows desktop/laptops with bluetooth.

I see the device on my phone and go trough pairing but when I'm finished on desktop/laptops it finishes with success and on phone it saiz could not pair. Sometimes it ends with adding the device to known
list but when I want to connect phone to desktop / laptops it can't connect.

I've tried this on 2 compleately different laptops and one desktop pc with wifi / bluetooth card without any luck. The phone connects to other bluetooth devices eg. gopro or bluetooth headphones without any
problems. Also windows machines connects to the mentioned devices just fine.

As troubleshooting steps I've tried suggested things in other threads as clearing all caches and files stored from bluetooth android services reseting network settings but without any luck. I've updated all
bluetooth drivers, tried wiping cache partition. I've also triad it on other smartphones with different versions of android but the issue is the same.
