I have a bluetooth audio A2DP streamer (a BTT005) which I am using to send bluetooth audio from my telly to something.
The original idea was to transmit this to my mobile phone (samsung galaxy S3), and use the normal headphones on the phone to listen to the telly quietly while I'm working late at night.
For some reason, I can't see any way to pair the a2dp transmitter with the galaxy s3.
There seems to be plenty about sending an audio stream out FROM the S3 to a receiver, but no info about configuring the phone to receive an audio stream IN to it.
(Obviously the other answer is to buy a bluetooth headset to receive the audio stream, but I thought it would be cool to use my phone as the headphones).
I know its possible to send audio from an Android phone via bluetooth to a PC using the a2dp profile. But I want to do it the other way. Connect the phone to my amplifier and send audio via bluetooth a2dp from my laptop.

View 2 Replies View RelatedCan Android use Bluetooth GPS Receivers in its various applications, such as MyTracks, CardioTrainer, Google Maps etc, is there an app I can install to allow this, or does the functionality have to be supported by the relevent software application (MyTracks, GoogleMaps etc) itself.If the latter, are there any navigation programs I can install which support this?

My phone calls and media work great with the headphone jack on the EVO with the GM9 audio adaptor.
Anyone found a way to make it work with phone calls?
Or is anyone using a bluetooth receiver that does BOTH media and phone calls in the vehicle?
I was wondering if anyone knew of an app that could make an Android phone act as as a bluetooth receiver. The phone being a deactivated Droid ERIS I have laying around that I'm not using. What I want to be able to do is connect my laptop to the ERIS with bluetooth (laptop has bluetooth connectivity) and have my laptops audio go to the ERIS (ERIS would be plugged into a set of speakers through it's 3.5mm headphone jack). In essence, the opposite of what people usually use a phones bluetooth connectivity for. Anyone know of an app that can do this?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to pulse my bluetooth dongle, to see if it is range. Every second my Android sends a char to the dongle, which then responds with a char. If there is no response, or the char is wrong, then it should conclude that there is no connection. I'm able to send from Android to dongle (attached to MCU), and the dongle is able to respond. All I need is a simple way to read each char (when received) to compare it. I'm trying to do it in a seperate thread to make it run in its own loop.
Here is my code so far, but I think I might be off, so if you could give me a pointer!
void readFromInputStream()
{
Thread readFromInputStream = new Thread()

public void run()...............................
Has anyone here tried using an external bluetooth GPS receiver with the SGS?I'd love a fix for the GPS issues to come along, but the phone is otherwise so brilliant that I'd be up for getting an external unit for using it when driving (or even for using with My Tracks etc.) if the thing never gets sorted.Any reason why one wouldn't work?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI was looking for a bluetooth device that I can connect to my Home theater receiver. Size is not an issue as it will sit in the closet and will be running on AC power all the time. I saw this real cheap device on deal extreme but reviews aren't great. DealExtreme: $12.99 Bluetooth 2.0 A2DP AVRCP Stereo Music Receiver and Handsfree (Black)
I also found this. Amazon.com: BlackBerry Bluetooth Stereo Gateway: Cell Phones & Service . It is made for BB but will work with any A2DP device. A mini usb AC adapter is required for power source.

trying to create a broadcast receiver which responds to system events and change system settings. I don't need any interaction from the user so I don't need an activity and have been trying to do everything through the manifest file. I've put a log event into my onReceive method but it never logs anything so I'm presuming my method is never called. I've tried this with both the 1.5 and 1.6 SDKs. I was hoping somebody could have a look at my code please and let me know if there are any problems.

For example, is it possible when we talk (or SMS), I get the contact picture of the remote person and the other person gets mine. Of course, providing that the contact picture is to be sync'ed is not yet set up.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have never developed an app for a mobile platform, and it's been quite some time since I've used Java.
I have a Galaxy S2 (but this question applies to all Android handsets) and was wondering:
1. If the 2G receiver (which is around 900Mhz in Australia) can be hijacked to listen to analogue, non-GSM traffic. i.e. can I basically turn it into a radio?
2. If the bundled FM Radio app is restricted somehow to the normal radio band (88Mhz - 105Mhz or something in Australia). In other words, can it be used to listen to basically any frequency?
3. If I can listen to multiple frequencies at once?
I'm not developing a police radio scanner, but the requirements are roughly similar ..
So there is an app in the market that allows me to stream data 2 my airplay receiver. It works decent but nowhere near the way Apple has incorporated it. SCH-I535

What I mean is.. if you have an Android TV Box, can you make it work as Miracast receiver so I could stream my android phone to that Android TV Box?
I am looking at some Android Boxes HERE and I see that only THIS ONE "officially" supports Miracast (as receiver). Is it really the only one with Miracast capability?

How to stream / send the audio from TuneIn Radio on my Android phone (Samsung Note 3 on T-Mobile) over WiFi in my home to my Yamaha A/V receiver (HTR-4065) that supports DLNA and AirPlay.
Sending audio from a running application, in this case, TuneIn Radio via either DLNA or AirPlay? The reason I'm trying to do this is that the built Internet Radio (using vTuner) on the Yamaha receiver does not have some of my favorite radio stations available, but TuneIn does.
I am trying to create a broadcast receiver to detect when the screen was locked. I have it already working to detect when the the tablet was booted, but it won't work for the SCREEN_OFF action. Right now I just have it log any intents that where triggered and so far its only working for when the boot was completed.
Code:
package com.atlantis;
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;

I'm running a custom ROM (4.2.2) on an HTC Vivid. When I connect to my PC via usb, Windows only sees the internal storage, not the external sd card, and there's no way to navigate to the System partition to access.
When I was running the stock HTC ICS, Windows would mount the external card as a separate drive. I know the file system hierarchy is different with JB. Is this why it only sees the internal storage now?
Specs: ainol novo elf 7 tablet A10 processor. it has android market. (google play )

Investigation:

2)i try to paste something, it fails.
3)i try to delete something it fail.
So, FORMATTED the memory card (via pc...connected it as usb, formatted, ejected), TRY TO PASTE SOMETHING via tablet, it fails
