BT not working - Nook Color General

If I turn the BT on it hesitates for like 30 sec then it doesn't turn on.

Try a hard reboot, (press the power button until it turns off, then turn it back on)
That's worked for me when I have that issue

You can also try booting into CWM, going to the advanced menu, then "fix permisions". For some reason doing the fix permisions in CWM instead of rom manager works better for me. It might for you.

Getting BT working
OK buffnutz1, here's what I did. I went into ROM Manager and did a "Fix Permissions" and then I did a hard reboot. When I restarted CM7 I was able to get BT working no problem.
I have also bought CoPilot Live 8 and use my BT GPS receiver to turn my Nook into a fun BIG navigation device.

BlueTooth problem

Hi,
I have a problem with the BT.
I installed the newest HTC Album, and HTC Task Manager (latest build), and afther that, I cant turn on the BT! When I push the BT icon in the Comm Manager, the PDA is loadin for a while, and afther that shows the BT icon OFF.
I uninstalled the Album, and Task manager, but the problem is still on.
please help me!
I have the same problem. Everytime i hit the bluetooth icon on the comm manager, the load icon comes up then bluetooth is still off. I soft-reset the phone and everything and it still doesn't work. Help?
I didn't install anything new, it just stopped working for some reason.
what about settings connection tab bluetooth what are the settings in here?
I having the same problem, ever time I try to turn BT on it works for a min then just turns off. I have noticed the blue led falsh a few times then stop. Also when I turn the phone off and then on the bluetooth icon is green and the blue led flashes but as so as I go into the comm manger or settings it turns off. so my BT does not work at all. This just happened during a call using my jawbone headset and has not worked since. Any help would be great. OH---- and I have tried reloading the rom and different roms and still does not work. It is a POS to many problems with this damn phone.
OMG I just figured it out! I cant believe it works now. I just pushed the BT icon on the comm manger and soft reseted it when it was working and when it restarted it worked! Also, know that my phone was off when i did this, not sure if it matters or not but just for the info

WLAN Won't turn on

I've tried various ROMS, currently using the clean Tilt rom. After a hard reset I am able to turn on the WLAN and connect to my home network. After a while, I am no longer able to turn on the WLAN. If I tap the WLAN button in comm manager, I see the spinning beach ball for a few seconds, then nothing happens. The icon doesn't light up, it doesn't search for a network, no error is displayed, just nothing.
Has anyone seen this problem or have an idea of what else I can check?
Did you install any of the custom comm managers? It's pretty common that they break the WLAN enable/disable. I use the 10 button one but there is a reghack to fix it.
I just did another hard reset. Still using Helmi_Tilt_AKU.0.7.0.R1.BigStorage.exe ROM. After the initial startup and customization ran, I was able to turn on and connect the WLAN. After that, I did a power off. (Hold the power button 5 secs). When I turned the Tilt back on, I was no longer able to turn on the WLAN. I had not installed any software.
I'm reflashing with the original ATT rom. I'll report back after I've done the same test with that ROM.
I reflashed the original ATT rom. Same Issue. I think I just have a bad unit. If I power cycle. sometimes it works, sometime it doesn't. I haven't been able to get a consistent result.
Final result. It was a bad unit. I got a warranty replacement and it's working fine now.

Bluetooth won't turn on ...

I've had my Kaiser for a while and now, for some reason, Bluetooth won't turn on.
If I go into Comm Manager and press the Bluetooth icon, the little swirling coloured circle (WM hourglass) goes around for a few seconds and then bluetooth icon stays off (as if it's turned off) and the blue bluetooth light doesn't appear on the phone.
I've installed Jetware from http://www.jetwaremobile.com/install.htm in the vain hope that it would start working. I also installed the HTC bluetooth fix from another thread in here (released in December 2007) - same deal, nothing.
Short of hard resetting the phone (which I'm loathed to do) is there any way I can fix this or even investigate what is happening. Obviously the spinning circle and nothing happening doesn't give much info away when trying to diagnose it!!!
Any help appreciated.
If you soft reset and try enabling bluetooth right after it, does it work? I recall such an issue with the Hermes.

If you soft reset and then go into Comm Manager the Bluetooth icon is lit like it's on. However if you wait it then goes off OR if you select it it turns off and then won't turn on again.
Basically I think the bluetooth icon is mistaken when it's soft reset as the blue flashing LED never appears on the phone to indicate that bluetooth is working.

Does anybody have ANY suggestions at all on this? If not, I will hard reset howveer I am very reluctant to do this (as you can imagine)!

Reboot and enable Bluetooth immediately. After that you should be able to enable and disable it normally. If you don't enable it immediately after boot, you'll never be able to enable it.

Turn wifi off and power down. Power back up, let it boot, then turn on bluetooth. Then you can turn wifi back on.
When I had this problem with my Nook Color I had to perform a "hard" reboot......Hold the power button down until the device turned off without using the sub menus. Then I rebooted and turned on the bluetooth.
Turn off wifi shut off the device (turn off enterely) turn on again and.turn on bluetooth the u can turn on wifi
I just tried on my sister in law's nook color....

After having turned wifi off, this worked for me.

Turning on bluetooth freeezes and then reboots the phone

When I try to turn on bluetooth (which is usually turned off) everything freezes the moment I 'click' on the turn on/off switch. After the freeze it takes around one-two minutes to restart the phone and then I can normally turn the bluetooth on.
The strange thing is that I can turn it off and on then and it will work, but when I turn it off and leave it off for a few days, and then try to turn it on the phone will freeze again...
My build number is EVA-L09C432B505. Stock firmware, regulary updated.

Did you have the same problem before updating to b505?
Maybe there is a problem related to specific BT headset you are using or so, does it reproduce if you delete all BT connections...
Have you tried Factory Reset and Wipe Cache from Recovery and then turning on BT (without registering yet your BT headset)
You can boot to eRecovery (switch off, connect by USB to charger, press and keep pressing Vol+, press Pow button).
From eRecovery you can opt to (re)Install latest firmware and recovery, followed by Factory reset and Wipe cache
