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?

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.

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?
I was wondering how many have experience with the Garmifone? My G1 is dying a slow death plus I am looking for a better GPS receiver that I can connect to the A500 to use aviation navigation apps.
What are some thoughts here? Could this kill 2 birds with one stone?
I have heard from a buddy that he did not like it, but I have not had any experience with it.
NOt sure if teather GPS needs to have root acess but that will share your android phones GPS with the iconia.
if your also looking there are bluetooth GPS recievers, I have yet to use one, they do pair with android phones not sure about tablets
Thanks for the feedback Brian.
I have been looking at the Bluetooth GPS receivers made by Globalsat and talking with the developer of the Naviator App. He has been using a Bluetooth receiver paired with his tablet I believe and it seems to be working. Since I need to upgrade my G1 anyway, and don't really care about all the social networking bells and whistles that come with a lot of modern phones, I was looking at the Garminfone for it's navigational abilities.

Good looking phone. Do you know how well the GPS signal locks in it?
mine has been fine always gets a lock
I've had one for over a year now. It works fine. I don't know anything about linking its GPS function with another device. I tried to find a way to use it as a GPS receiver for a PC application, but could not find a way to do that.
I use the GPS in my Nexus One for my A500, shared via bluetooth. It works 100% beautifully, since it can lock down almost instantly and tracks more accurately than this thing can. I use Sygic's latest release as my navigation app, the only problem it has is that the top part of the interface is cut off (it doesn't use the new HC full-screen mode, yet), so the signs that come up are cut off.
has anybody managed to get an internet tether from a stock (winMo) hd2 through blutetooth?
i know it can be achieved via an HD2 droid ROM but i'm specifically asking about stock winMo.
Bluetooth pan works from my g2. What does the hd2 use? Pan or Dun with Bluetooth?

the hd2 supposedly uses PAN also but when i select start/tools/internet sharing/bluetooth pan/ connect (to the TF), i get "checking services", then:
"failed to establish internet sharig connection to remote device as it supports only network access point (NAP) mode".
stumped.
On my gw all I have to do is turn on its Bluetooth then on the Transformer I find my g2 in the Bluetooth devices and select it. Then I get another screen asking to connect to Internet. And that's it. G2 uses Pan.

tried it that way. i just don't get the "connect to Internet?" option on the TF; only "rename device" and "unpair".
i wonder if there is a hack to make the hd2 BT work like your g2?
if so, i haven't found it, alas.

your gonna have to install Cyanogen Mod 7 nightly. They just added the BT PAN function a couple days ago. Be warned though the performance of BT PAn isn't that good. They Highest i could get on a download was 1.5 Mbps and that a limitation of bluetooth. You'll do better using the built-in wifi hotspot in CM7.
quick update: i tried moving sims from my hd2 to my old tytn II and guess what? bluetooth tethering either directly via the OS or via wmwifirouter v1.52 now works perfectly! so something is definitely borked in the hd2.
works pretty fast too. i was impressed but it's really frustrating that my old tytn II can do what my shiny new hd2 cannot!
i have v2 of wmwifirouter in my hd2 which no longer supports bluetooth tethering. might try downgrading it to v1.52 to see if that makes a difference.
another update:
i downgraded to wmwifirouter v1.52 on my hd2 and the bluetooth option was greyed-out just as it is in v 2.00.
then i downgraded further to wmwifirouter v1.25. bluetooth option was now selectable! but ...
alas! while the TF pairs, it doesn't provide an internet option to it.
i tried it every which way: start bluetooth then wmwifirouter and vice-versa but no joy.
looks like the winMo hd2 is well and truly useless for bluetooth pairing to the TF, so unless anybody else has any ideas i'll probably give up at this point.
Put cm7 on it.

i know i can do that (and may eventually) but for the moment i want to keep it stock WM6.5.
I have an Nokia 822 with native Bluetooth file transfer installed. Whenever I want to pair the phone with my sister's iPhone to send her pics, her iPhone says that Windows Phone is not suported...WT
Strange....my 810 sends Bluetooth files to my girlfriends GS3 just fine...maybe it's the iPhone that has the problem ?.

I'll redirect you to that link here - it might help you: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-19512_7-57487855-233/ios-could-get-bluetooth-file-sharing/
But as was already said: iOS does not support OBEX file transfer via Bluetooth which is the standard everyone else has been using for sending files via Bluetooth since there was Bluetooth.

Thanks guys so basically it's Apple who [email protected]#cks! Granted that Bluetooth is old technology but it still comes in handy from time to to time.

Gasoline engines are ancient technology and they also come in handy from time to time.
Well now I'm even more glad that I didn't get an iPhone. Ugh we are getting them at work so I will have no choice but to carry it around.
