I feel reall stupid, as I'm sure it's quite simple if you know your way around the OS of the N900

Here's hoping one last time!!!

Hi.
You just need to follow step 3 on the wiki page: http://wiki.maemo.org/Bluetooth_PBAP

For step 3, you open xterminal on the N900, then type "sudo gainroot" and press enter: now you're as root!

Then you type in xterminal this command (replace /home/user/mypackages with the path to the folder where you placed the files, the one you call BTFIX):
cd /home/user/mypackages
dpkg -i *.deb

and press enter

Then, close Xterminal and reboot your phone.
It's better to delete your bluetooth device from the N900 before, an pair them again after the reboot.

Et voilą!
