Bluetooth on 10166?

[anon(7822191)]

Anyone know how to get bluetooth to work on the latest build? I'm trying to sync data from my band... I open the MS Health app and it just crashes; if I try to connect the band via bluetooth it will automatically disconnect it as well. Dealbreaker as I need to sync my fitness data up every day... hope someone knows a workaround!

This literally just helped me 5 minutes ago (mostly) http://forums.windowscentral.com/microsoft-band/366229-latest-windows-10-build-working-band-yet.html

Only problem is that it still wont display my band's name

For me, Bluetooth is still not working, both with my wireless charging plate and my car. The connection only holds for 5 seconds and then drops

I installed 10166 on top of Win8.1, no hard reset. Bluetooth is working fine with my car and my Surface Pro3.

Just briefly tested it in my car, no problems at all...

Merrily listening to Pandora on my Bluetooth headset. Installed from 8.1, hard reset. Better range than in 8.1 even.

Me personally, I just had to reinstall ms health app. Working fine now!

Are you getting track info, pause, previous and skip? From what I can tell Bluetooth hasn't been touched since the initial Win 10 release. Cortana sometimes goes a bit insane on the text messages, much like when she lost in in Halo.

Not getting track info anyway because of the car interface but skipping tracks forward works fine while situation with going backward isn't that brilliant...but works

Working fine for me using my headset right now

I get full functionality on my head unit with 8.1 but on 10 it's just simple audio pass-through. Looking at feedback it seems to be VW, BMW, Audi and Ford users complaining.

Do a factory reset and it will solve the problem

Blue tooth is fine for my headphone and my car but when I try to connect my band it connects for 3-5 seconds then dropps. MS health also dies right away.

I found a workaround by installing the MS band sync app on my PC. Found here: Download Microsoft Band Sync app for Windows from Official Microsoft Download Center

You just attach the charge cable and it syncs. I'm going to be rolling back my 920 to 8.1 I miss my notifications and being able to reply from my wrist too much.

I'm also experiencing the same problem, Bluetooth connects only for 5 seconds then disconnects..
