If someone has no mac operating system and is interested in the GenericCSR.dfu, I can email it. My last questions (hopefully) regarding this topic now are: - What is dangerous about updating the dongle? the procedure itself? only the linux btdfu tool (secure with mac)? - Widcomm delivers update-software too, will/should this work too with the GenericCSR.dfu? - I now have to run hid2hci every time after I plug the dongle in (thanks for the info marcel). What is this exactly doing, why is it necessary? - doing hid2hci I get: Switching device 0a12:1000 to HCI mode failed (Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character) but everything's fine after that. is this a problem? why the error? Thanks for all your hints and help! regards Marco Marcel Holtmann wrote: > Hi Adam, > > >>Yes, the "if you are lucky" part is very important.
