Rockjaw Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Hi . I assume you're talking about the base stations / lighthouses? You're not seeing them go into sleep mode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unhollowed6 Posted December 6, 2016 Author Share Posted December 6, 2016 Hello . Yes, my base stations arent going into sleepmode and I cant connect my phone to the vive neither. What do you think it is. I have tried 2 times doing a clean install of windows 10. Thank you for taking time to help me out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lerun Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Hi, just had the same problem and was running around troubleshooting. What worked for me is to download the drivers from here : http://www.broadcom.com/support/bluetooth Under drivers Get: WIDCOMM® Bluetooth Windows® Software for Windows 10 & 8, 64-Bit Unpack the files to your computer. Open Device Manager Find the problem driver (with yellow exclamation mark), for me it was called BCMxxxxx Right click and choose update driver software, then choose browse my computer for driver software. Navigate to the place you unpacked the downloaded driver, and go here BTW 12.0.1.940 Retail Package\Win64 then press open. The correct drivers should now install itself. This solved my problems with the drivers not installing be themself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockjaw Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Hi , don't re-install Windows 10 again... that may not help! The Bluetooth support on the base stations / lighthouses can be a little touch and go. Some find it's easier to just unplug the base stations between uses - they're designed to do this and don't need resetting or similar. However, if you're trying your phone too, you have a couple of options. 's solution might work for you. Another suggestion that might help I found here (reproduced below): Give each a go and see if it helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unhollowed6 Posted December 6, 2016 Author Share Posted December 6, 2016 I tried both ideas and nothing helped, it still does not let me connect my phone. I dont know if the photo will help with any thing. I when I tried your method first it still had the yellow mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockjaw Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 I'm going to try and get someone else to take a look at this, - thanks for the screenshots though. Did you try removing the 'ghost' connection you seem to have there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
