Bluetooth connectivity problems with Centrino

Hello, I have a laptop with built-in Intel Centrino N1030 wifi-bluetooth combo, but bluetooth functions seem to work only poorly. In one situation, I want to connect to my HTC Magic smartphone (android 2.2). Sending a file works, but the Phone keeps saying 'linked, but not connected'. In another situation, I have a Marmitek BoomBoom 90 Music Receiver. It's a bluetooth receiver that connects to a Harman Kardon amplifier through TOSLINK. Connecting my computer with the BoomBoom through bluetooth doesn't seem to work, although the device can be found when I search for bluetooth devices. I guess this is just a driver problem... Originally, I used Dell-drivers to operate the N1030 (version 14.x), but recently, I just took the newest driver directly from Intel (version 16.x), but both don't work. Also, when I go to Control Panel - Manage audio devices, it doesn't list the BoomBoom. Does anyone have an idea for solving this, or is the N1030 just not capable of streaming music to an external receiver?
