Even if you got 3-4 concrete walls between the 2 devices! <img src="http://www.dngloz.com/images/stories/Mods/bluetooth//036-DngloZ.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> After my cosmetic appliance of Patex to the part of plastic where i cut...This mod is very simple, you have to desolder the antenna on the bluetoothThe antenna looks like this, its the blue thing with WTC printed on it.  It has 6 connectors, the ones on the right side are not important, they are only there to hold the antenna...The ones on the left are important.Carefully desolder the pins, remove the antenna and solder the end of the pig tail in its place, the side of the pig tailshould be soldered to the ground pins and the middle should be soldered to the middle.. very simple... Once you're done soldering, apply some super glue to the pig tail and at the end of the board (not where you soldered!!!) and stick them together, this will hold the solder when some force is applied to the pigtail, i personally applied super glue then a layer of Patex(i love patex =0P ) this way it's super secure...Then make a small drill on the cover of the bluetooth where the cable will go out from, close the cover, apply some super glue to close the cover, apply some Patex to where you drilled(once the wire is in it of course...) this will make super sure that the wire won't come outand no pressure will be applied to the solder point.Congrats, now you have a super bluetooth! <img src="http://www.dngloz.com/images/stories/Mods/bluetooth//025-DngloZ.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://www.dngloz.com/images/stories/Mods/bluetooth//030-DngloZ.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Source....<a href="http://www.dngloz.com/mods/pc-mods/bluetooth-antenna-modification.php" target="_blank">http://www.dngloz.com/mods/pc-mods/bluetooth-antenna-modification.php</a></blockquote>
