BlackBerry 9900 Audio/Video Remote Control HID Driver

The BlackBerry 9900 Audio/Video Remote Control HID driver helps Windows recognize the phone’s Bluetooth media-control interface, allowing supported playback commands to work with compatible software. This driver is relevant if your paired BlackBerry 9900 appears as an unidentified HID device or its media controls are not responding. Listed under Other with vendor information identifying Qualcomm Atheros, it should be matched to your computer’s Bluetooth hardware before installation.

Key Features

• Media-control support: Helps compatible Bluetooth software interpret remote-control actions such as play, pause, and track selection.
• HID device recognition: Supports identification of the audio/video remote-control interface in Windows Device Manager.
• Bluetooth integration: Works alongside a compatible Bluetooth adapter driver and software stack; it does not replace the drivers for every BlackBerry function.
• Legacy Windows options: Listed operating systems include Windows 10, 8.1, 7, Vista, and XP. Check the individual package for its specific OS and architecture requirements.

How to Install BlackBerry 9900 Audio/Video Remote Control HID Driver

1. Identify the device. Open Device Manager and locate the BlackBerry-related HID entry or unidentified Bluetooth peripheral. Under Properties > Details, check its hardware IDs to help confirm a suitable match.
2. Choose a compatible package. Before starting your BlackBerry 9900 Audio/Video Remote Control HID driver download for Windows, verify the supported Windows release and whether your system requires a 32-bit or 64-bit package. For Windows 10/11 systems, note that Windows 11 is not included in the listed support information.
3. Check the download source. If a free download is offered, confirm its publisher and compatibility details. Scan the downloaded file with your security software, and avoid packages that require unrelated utilities.
4. Install the driver. Run the supplied installer, if available. For an extracted driver package, use Device Manager’s Update driver option, choose to browse your computer, and select the folder containing the compatible driver files.
5. Reconnect and test. Restart Windows if prompted, reconnect the phone over Bluetooth, and test media controls in a compatible application. If recognition still fails, check the Bluetooth adapter driver and pairing settings.

Keep the driver updated when a compatible release addresses recognition or connection problems. The latest version is only useful if it supports your hardware and Windows edition, so review compatibility before each update and retain a working driver or restore point in case you need to roll back.

Common Issues and Fixes

• Install fails or rolls back: Use the Qualcomm Atheros Bluetooth package that matches your Windows version and architecture, and run it as administrator. If Windows blocks it, use a signed OEM release rather than forcing an unsigned driver. Disconnect other Bluetooth devices during install.
• Device not detected: Confirm the BlackBerry 9900 is paired and its AVRCP/HID remote service is enabled. Remove stale pairings, restart the Bluetooth radio, set the phone discoverable, then re-pair. Keep the phone within range.
• Version conflicts: Windows’ generic Bluetooth driver can override the Atheros stack. In Device Manager, uninstall existing Bluetooth adapter/remote entries, reboot, and install only one Atheros package. If a recent update broke it, roll back to the previous working driver.
