Logitech K810 and new Surface Pro 3 firmware update not playing nicely Bluetooth Problem

Hi there,

There's an active discussion over on the Surface forums regarding the 9/9/2014 firmware update causing Bluetooth issues, primarily w/ the K810 (but I'd imagine this could be w/ other BT keyboards as well).

http://www.surfaceforums.net/threads/logitech-k810-keyboard-and-9-9-14-firmware-update.11391/

Prior to this firmware update I was able to use my Logitech K810 without issue with my Surface Pro 3. However, now it just goes into a connect/reconnect loop. I'll see "driver error" briefly. And then it'll try connecting again.

Looking into the event log for Administrative events, I see this:

Bluetooth HID device  either went out of range or became unresponsive.

I also see another event within seconds that says this:

Metadata staging failed, result={66F5F5A4-2104-53C0-BCDF-9DD1AF9AE33F} for container '0x80070490'

All of this appears to be an issue with the driver and/or firmware.

Furthermore, the keyboard works when pairing (typing in the keycode), but immediately after pairing it fails. So there is certainly something wrong and I don't believe it's the keyboard.

Anyone?

Hi all, I just installed the 10/6/2014 System Hardware Update this morning and appear to be having no issues with my Logitech Keyboard anymore.  You may want to installed it.

You want to give a try.  So far, no issues encountered.  Hoping it stays that way.  ;-)

Hope this helps!

    My Razer Orochi 2013 Bluetooth mouse also shows GREATLY REDUCED SMOOTHNESS when moving after the September Firmware update. Also experienced Logitech BT keyboard issue with mine, but not K810. Uninstalling SetPoint did help with that, but I've had no luck with the Orochi mouse's smoothness issue, which is clearly more important to me as I sometimes play games on my Surface Pro 3.

He said he will inform the team to review this problem, and he promised that a fix will come (but who knows when), as for now, the workaround is to reset to previous version of the firmware. I guess if rolling back the driver version won't work, we are left with the only solution to reset the system totally, that will be too painful to do.

    did they give you a support case #? what is it?

    With the caveat that I can't vouch for the authenticity or whether or not the

    download is malware free, I found the previous drivers and bits at

    July- the previous version of the BT driver appeared in the July update:

    http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/Tablets/Microsoft/Microsoft-Surface-Pro-3-Tablet-Firmware-Driver-16-July-2014.shtml

    August - same version BT driver as the one in the July update

    http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/Tablets/Microsoft/Microsoft-Surface-Pro-3-Tablet-Firmware-Driver-August-2014.shtml

    If anyone wants to try installing the older driver (at their own risk), I'd

    suggest first doing a system restore checkpoint so you can roll back completely

    before trying this. I'd be interested if installing the older driver providers a

    solution to these issues.
