Nokia 808 Windows 10 USB drivers

Anonymous

This is probably a lost cause at this point, but I've upgraded to Windows 10 and my 808 no longer connects via USB o Bluetooth. There appears to be some sort of driver issues, as in device manager there are multiple 808 and MTP entries with the exclamation mark. Uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers does nothing.

Any suggestions short of finding a Windows 8 computer and using that?

I contacted Microsoft's mobile group on Facebook about this issue, and they suggested that I reinstall the cable driver. Tried that and...almost got it to connect. I got to thinking that if it's the cable driver that's not working right, maybe I should try to connect without a cable. I grabbed my little Bluetooth kernel and plugged it into my laptop and...SUCCESS!!! I was able to sync my day-to-day stuff (pics, contacts, text messages) with no problem. I tried to backup my phone with the suite and it went REALLY slowly, but it worked (I backed up my phone a week or so before updating to Win10, so I wasn't really too concerned about not finishing the backup today).

So, if you have a way to connect to your computer by Bluetooth, give it a try and it /should/ work to connect to Nokia Suite. I still want to resolve this issue with the cable connectivity, though, as much out of principle as it is out of convenience. Bugging the hell out of me...

Thanks, but I actually do need the N8 as a modem. Have been posting here for almost a year in regards to the N8.

I got to the part where I install the Huawei Software, but cannot install the 3G modem. It asks me which port to use, but does not give me an option, so have to abort the driver install

Hello @vienna10,

I never used my N8 as modem.

I asked Svetlana for Hauwei Sofware Mobile Partner.

She gave me the link.

I download and installed the software then I simply followed the instructions:

go to modems

select NOKIA USB Modem

Right click then select update driver

select find software diriver already installed on pc

select manually-from already installed

Un-check show compatible hardware

on the producer window select HUAWEI INCORPORATED

on the model window select HUAWEI MOBILE CONNECT 3G MODEM

then click next to update the driver and you will get Huawei mobile connect 3G modem

start (double-click icon) the software "Mobile Partner"

and ...... I stop here, but Svetlana says

"-----

Injoy. Don't Forget in modem propertyes add initialization command.

"-----

I hope this will help you.

Ciao

Mario

PS: sorry for my english.
thank you for the detailed instructions. I can see now where I have gone wrong. I selected the Huawei as an additional modem driver.

As I have to undo my mess first, will try my luck again tomorrow
