So, I have been playing with the latest CM 7 build on my Nook Color that has Bluetooth enabled. Are there any applications that can Bluetooth tether a android tablet to a BlackBerry? I've got PDANet on my BlackBerry so it is advertising a bluetooth network conenction, but there isn't anyway I know of to connect to it using Bluetooth DUN. I know Ipas has the iBluever....is there anything similar in android world?
On a side note, bluetooth has been working well for copying contacts, video and pics. I don't have anything else to try pairing with (except my laptop) so limited in what I can test. All in all, can't wait for this to get rolled into the honeycomb build (if that is possible).
Now that I got BT working on my NC with CM7 I am also looking to teather my nc to a nokia E52..
Not sure about bumping etiquette around here, so I hope I'm not stepping on any toes, but I'm also interested in tethering a non-Android/iOS phone to my NC over bluetooth. I have a Sony Ericsson W760, which tethers really easily to any PC with SE's PC Suite application. The devices will connect, allowing the phone to act as a remote for the NC (maybe useful if NC is connected to a stereo for music) and allowing one-way file transfer from phone to NC, but that's it. I'd love to tether 3G, GPS, or even the camera and mic/speakers.
I would think it wasn't possible because of BlackBerry limitations (I'm a pretty hardcore BB geek) but as the OP points out, iBluever does it for ipod.
Maybe a dev here would be able to do something like this?
Just spent about 15 minutes googling it and couldn't find any app that would do it.

I was able to set it up per the instructions, attempting to pair my NookColor to a Sony Ericsson W760 (JAVA powered walkman phone), but attempting to connect caused my NC to freeze twice in a row, requiring a hard reset.

Hello,
I can't pair my Advent Vega (POV Mobii 10') with my iphone 4 (for the 3G connexion).
I've installed the MoDaCo custom rom R8. (Froyo 2.2)
When I pair the two devices, it says "Linked but not connected".
Please help me if you can. Thanks. Regards, JM
AOSP froyo builds (and thus the Vega) can't tether over bluetooth by default, it simply doesn't support the profile

and when saying "by default" there is a way to do it that makes the firmware "non-default"?
Cuz i would like to connect my bluetooth GPS to the tablet.
quick goole search found this

Thanks, now i just need to get my Bluei GPS to actually get my position.
Tried it with my Nokia N8 and it didnt want to get a loc there either, so i guess i have to let the reciever stay on and under open sky for a while.
Hi everyone,
This is my first time on this forum and I have looked around to find if someone had done this before.
I have the A7 running the Dexter Mod v 1.3 with the bluetooth fix. So far, it works with my Bluetooth keyboard; but I am unable to pair it with my iPhone 3GS so I can use its 3G connection to surf the net. I am not sure if this can be done with the eLocity or not, but I know my iPad WIFI can not do this so I am hoping my eLocity can.
Thanks in advance.
The best way to do this, without using bluetooth. 1) Install the adhoc fix on your elocity 2) get mywi from cydia.
The combo works great for me.

This assumes that he has jailbroken his iPhone, or even wants to tho. There has to be a way to tether via BT.

That's correct. I do not want to jailbreak my iPhone 3GS. I am hoping that with the new iOS 4.3, WIFI tethering will be included as opposed to the beta that's out there now. I am wondering if the bluetooth option will work with the elocity A7. My iPhone 3GS said it is connected, but the elocity A7 reports that it is paired but not connected.
Anybody else here?
Has anyone actually got Bluetooth DUN working under 2.1 ?
I've tried multiple computers, multiple bluetooth adapters and none of them see my X10 as offering the Dial-Up service. What the hell? I thought 2.1 was supposed to get Bluetooth DUN.
Bluetooth on Android is bloody terrible.
it has to be implemented from the kernel side, I have played before with some chinese android tablets and I could make a DUN connection to my nokia.
Also some archos tablets comes with this functionality on by default, even has a nice menu on wireless settings to set it up
does this work with Android? I'm still trying to get my TP2 to tether my A500...

I could be wrong but I think for now the tablet only has the a2dp profile and that's not even including input. That's straight up media playing through bluetooth only. I've tested it on my PC and my PC doesn't see any profiles to latch on to. My PC's bluetooth dongle has pretty much every BT profile imaginable (Toshiba's newest BT stack).
I think I read this in the manual but I can't be certain. I believe I also read that updates may possibly bring new profiles. But I wouldn't stake my life on that....
We rarely get promises fulfilled when it comes to these things.

I also got the same problem with A500 tether with my iPhone BT PAN, that seems Acer didn't put/make the profile in A500.... my old Archos A70 is working perfectly. Heard that ASUS transformer has no problem with BT PAN... Hope Acer fix this issue in the coming update...
This is solution for Motorola XOOM [ http://www.droid-life.com/2011/03/01/how-to-bluetooth-tether-to-motorola-xoom-using-original-droid/ ]. Is it works for Iconia A500?
Hi, as the title said, I’d like to know what app are you using to share your phone’s 3G connection with the TF101 using bluetooth.
I tried everything but none works. Pdanet, etc.
And every single app does only wifi theter, not bluetooth.
Simply, i don’t know what to install on my Galaxy S2; I’d buy anything if sure that it’d work.
Does your phone model not support wireless hotspot??
Just saw that it is a galaxy s2, which means it should support wireless hotspot..you should root your galaxy and flash a rom with wireless hotspot hack enabled, no app needed.
First you'll have to root your Galaxy SII, if you're not ready/able to do that you can't really use bluetooth for tethering (I haven't found one that works WITHOUT root)
Thanks guy, buy my galaxy s2 is rooted since the first day I got it, and by the way here where I live the wireless hotspot is not disabled, it works also without root.
I don’t want to make my phone become an Hotspot, because it waste a lot of battery. I’d like to share connection via bluetooth so I can keep it always on without enormous battery drains. Which one do you use, No_u?
Here's the steps I performed to use Bluetooth internet sharing with my Motorola Milestone 2. I learnt that from a friend who paired an Asus Slider with his iPhone, so I'm pretty sure Samsung Galaxy S2 will be able to support Bluetooth internet sharing without root..
One-time set up (configure Bluetooth pairing)
- Turn on Bluetooth on both devices
- On Galaxy S2 (or other smartphone which support Bluetooth internet sharing profile), activate "Discoverable" mode.
- On Asus TF101, (under Bluetooth settings menu ya?), search for the smartphone and select to pair.
Every time when you want to activate internet sharing via Bluetooth
- Turn on Bluetooth on both devices,
- On Asus tF101, under Bluetooth settings -> Paired devices, press on the smartphone to 'connect
Done! Enjoy internet via smartphone Bluetooth.

TF101 support Bluetooth Tether (use phone as modem) with bluetooth PAN profile.
When pair with a phone has bluetooth PAN profile (it has 1 more icon in device list, just like A2DP profile has a headphone icon), just click on it to connect.
Many phone have bluetooth DUN profile (Dial-up Networking) but just a few have bluetooth PAN profile (personal area networks). I bought a SonyEricsson Cedar J108i for this function
You have to search in user manual, phone wiki page, ... to know what Bluetooth profile is supported.
