[Bug 151559] Re: logitech dinovo edge bluetooth sometimes works, sometimes not

[Unai Uribarri]

I've solved the issue upgrading the firmware of the Logitech BT mini-receiver. The procedure I have followed is:
 * You need an Windows XP machine
 * You must install this package ftp://ftp.logitech.com/pub/techsupport/mouse/setpoint460_btw.exe to get the firmware upgrading tool
 * You must download ftp://ftp.logitech.com/pub/techsupport/mouse/setpointpatch32_b8.exe and extract the firmware:
    - Begin the installation and eventually you will get an error saying that the update is for SetPoint 3.3.
    - Don't press okay, and search a file called SetPointPatch.msi at folder %TMP%. 
    - Open a console, go to the folder containing SetPointPatch.msi and execute:
        mkdir c:\firmware
        msiexec /a SetPointPatch.msi /qb TARGET_DIR=c:\firmware
 * You must download this utility to convert the mini-receiver into a generic bluetooth device: http://www.nynaeve.net/Code/lhid2hci-compiled.zip
 * Unzip it and from a console execute:
        lhid2hci 046d c714
   It should write "Converted 1 HID devices to native HCI mode"
 * Execute %ProgramFiles%\WIDCOMM\Bluetooth Software\bin\BtDfuWizardP.exe. Select C:\firmware\Common\Logitech\Bluetooth\RR5103_B0077.dfu as the DFU image and upgrade it. If it fails the first time, try another time. I've been successful at the second time.

Issues:
 * If the last step goes wrong, you can get a bricked (useless) mini-receiver .
 * If the last step succeed, your model identifier of the mini-receiver will change to the one used by the Logitech MX-5000 Desktop Suite.
