I recently purchased the Samsung Gear Circle with the intention of using it both with my Android phone and my PC. It works wonderfully with my phone. I like the sound, fit, look, and features. However, I also need it to work with my laptop, as I want to use it to make calls through my Cisco softphone and Google Hangouts, and also to listen to music.
I talked to Samsung tech support, and was told that this bluetooth headset is not supported for Windows 7. I am able to get it to pair, and it shows up in the Sound panel, but it is greyed out. I right-click on it, and click connect, but nothing happens.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled my USB bluetooth adapter (Broadcom 3.0), and I have also updated the driver for the adapter, but I still cannot get it to work properly with Windows 7.
Does anyone have any suggestions for me?
