Platforms:
S60 Bluetooth driver for Windows XP enables Bluetooth communication from and to the SDK emulator. The driver can be used with S60 3rd Edition SDK MR and FP1 [1] and allows uses of inexpensive USB bluetooth adapter like those from Belkin or D-Link to be used for Symbian application development.
Being in a middle of a development, I have not tested this driver... (typically I am not sure whether it breaks or not the On Device Debugging over Bluetooth support in Carbide.c++ / Codewarrior.
You can download the S60 SDK Bluetooth driver from Forum Nokia.
[1] It should be compatible with other S60 3rd Edition SDK (the "non MR" one and FP2) but this has not been completely tested by Nokia.
Re: Nokia releases S60 SDK Bluetooth Driver
Once the Bluetooth Driver is installed it worked fine with the Emulator and when serached for looks like a phone, which is good. However when you want to use Bluetooth again for normal PC functions, such as sending your development sis file to the phone to test the bluetooth application you are developing you need to reinstall your PC bluetooth driver.
Is there anyway to dynamically switch between emulator bluetooth and PC?

Re: Nokia releases S60 SDK Bluetooth Driver
Hi John,
I am using my laptop for all my development activities. .Now my laptop has inbuild bluetooth. So can I use that instead of using a USB dongle ?

for S60 SDK..
Please help
