I use a macbook pro and have been cheerfully browsing Nokia phones on it (and its predecessors) over bluetooth for years. But although my new unbranded Desire is recognized by the Mac as a bluetooth device, any attempt to browse it results in an error message about the absence of the necessary 'services'.

I am in celebration so I decided to share my technological milestone. I just had a bluetooth stereo installed in my car. I now play all my music from my Nexus one. I removed all my CDs and put them in storage. The hands free function is excellent! It works far better than my expensive phone system at work.
When I had a bluetooth ear piece it was a drag to use so I gave up. This is nothing like that. I would rather talk with the hands free through the stereo than talk directly on the phone. Music pauses when calls are made or received. Love this thing! Probably there are many people here who are rolling their eyes because they did this ages ago.
I have a galaxy S3 4G and was wondering if there is a app I can download that will enable Bluetooth when I get into my car? I hate having it on and sometimes forget to turn it on when I need to drive somewhere.
View 5 Replies View RelatedMy understanding is that once two devices are paired that they will happily exchange information with each other without further intervention and this is certainly my experience when working with Nokia phones and PCs.
I have a problem with the pairing of my Nokia 6300 phone and my new HTC Desire.
I paired the devices and ticked "Always Trust Device"
The HTC shows the devices as paired.
HOWEVER in order to transfer date from the Nokia to the HTC I always need to make the HTC discoverable before anything will happen.
This is particularly annoying since I 'm trying to transfer my photo collection and this has to be done photo by photo.
I have a application which connects to the paired bluetooth device. My application works fine on Motorola milestone. But it's not working on HTC desire while connecting to paired bluetooth device. I have checked the logs then i found the SIM access uuid (0000112D-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB) which i pass get changed according to BT sniffer log which is as folloows 0x2d, 0x11, 0x11, 0x2d, 0x00, 0x00, 0x10, 0x00, 0x80, 0x00, 0x00, 0x80, 0x5f, 0x9b, 0x34, 0xfb so how can i resolved this problem. Is it a firmware issue of HTC desire? Can i upgrade the firmware with latest firmware version?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently moved and had the opportunity to view my TV-channels on my phone. However it is required to have a device who is not rooted, and I don't really want to unroot just to view tv on my phone.
Any small program, script etc. which can tell the app that the phone is unrooted, even though it is rooted? My phone is a Samsung Galaxy Nexus, running stock unlocked and unrooted JB yakju 4.2.2.
All this talk about different rooting methods and how some are unreliable makes me want to learn exactly what's required.
So far from looking at different exploits and methods to root different phones, the most simplest to understand is Peter Alfonso's Galaxy S rooting method posted today it seems all you need is to find a way on your device to install the following:
/system/bin/su (is this included in stock and replaced or just doesn't exist in stock systems?)
/system/app/Superuser.apk (it seems the Android OS has a "super user access" intent that this listens for -- so when apps try to access su this picks app it up?)
I noticed that just recently (few days) that the device self services app will not go back to the main screen but is instead stuch on the "update firmware" screen, and since theres no on screen back button I pretty much can't get off of this screen, tried power cycling, killing the app via TasKiller... nothing works.

My browser is Dolphin HD and I need a bookmark widget. I have a full page (4x4) to fill, and would like something that shows either a scrolling list or a collection of thumbnails of the sites. The stock Android widget only shows 6 thumbnails (non scrolling) and the HTC Bookmarks widget will only show 6 bookmarks, 5 of which are links to Orange webpages that STILL show after I deleted them! I have a fairly short list of about 10 bookmarks, stored by Dolphin, and I want quick access to them from my homescreen without placing individual icons.

View 3 Replies View RelatedWe have a info bar at the bottom of the following menu: Settings > Applications > Running Services
Avail: XXXMB+X.XXB in XYZ_____________________Other: X.XXB in XYZ
Is anyone able to explain what XXX and XYZ are please? I am guessing XXX = memory taken up and XYZ = number of processes?
But it doesn't make sense to say: Avail: 32MB + 0.00B in 31 processes
What are considered 'good', 'bad' and optimal figures here?
This is my first android phone and im having some problems with the bluetooth. Im trying to send my contacts over bluetooth from my old sony ericsson but it doesnt seem to be going smoothly, i would say its all down to me! Basically i have got the bluetooth on for both phones, the desire is set to be discoverable and i try to send the contacts via bluetooth on the SE. I get the whole passcode and accept the file which i have done, but then it says again about accepting the file. Ive tried it a few times and i have 3 bluetooth icons at the top of my screen now which i imagine are for transferring files which need accepting. Is there anywhere i can to accept them or close them down?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI started killing the calendar and the obex services by going into settings>applications>running services.
This is resulted in the awake times significantly lower than the up time... however today i realised it also means when i want to connect the Desire to the pc to sync contacts/calendar with outlook.. the sync software on the phone does not launch at all. I went into the programs menu, but there is no launcher icon for the sync app.
I also setup the power control widget that comes with the phone on the homescreen and enabled sync from that... no go. The Sync app only came up when i rebooted the device and *DID NOT* kill the two calendar processes on the phone.
I know rebooting is a solution, but i would appreciate if there's something quicker.
How to detect the bluetooths device found?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'd like to establish a Bluetooth communication between an Android phone and a remote device.The class of the remote device is a basic one just a simple Bluetooth adapter.When I use the Bluetooth scan devices function,the phone recognizes devices from different class (ex. computer, phone, Bluetooth headset) but not this one.I tried it on a Samsung Galaxy Theos and a HTC Wildfire with Android 2.1 but I got the same result with both.Is that possible that the phone manufacturer or Android filters certain class of devices? Otherwise, is there another way to make this device discoverable?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a weird issue, I have a Bluetooth speaker that I used for music on my Blackberry Storm, the storm automatically recognized that the speaker was a speaker, but the droid recognizes it as headphones, which is an issue, because the speakers are a2dp, and it's using the headset profile, which makes the sound quality SUCK!
Anyone have any idea how I can change it? I've tried unpairing and repairing it like 3 times now...
The PS3 can pair with bluetooth keyboards and mice. As can PCs obviously. But for PCs you can use other programs on the client machine to make mouse/kb control work. You can't do this on the PS3 so you need an actual bluetooth connection.
However, there are no apps I know that can do this, I wondered if maybe it somehow required root, and if there are any root-using apps that can turn the phone into a bluetooth input mouse/kb device to be paired with a ps3.
I've googled this with no luck so far. I paired my Droid Charge with some an awesome pair of Freedom Bluetooth Headphones for the gym. I want to go running with a friend...can she buy the same headphones and connect to my phone as well so we can both listen to the same music as we run?
In other words, can one device (my droid) pair with 2 bluetooth receivers simultaneously?
Windows 7 (64 bit) Dell Desktop PC and my lovely new Sony Xperia Z1 trying to send files via Bluetooth rather than keep plugging and unplugging the USB cable and risk breaking the cover. well that was my plan anyway.The Dell didn't come with Bluetooth so I bought a wee plug-in USB Bluetooth unit. I have managed to copy a couple of files but it took ages to get it to connect properly and now it won't do it at all.There are 4 driver messages under hardware which all show problems with Bluetooth peripheral device and no drivers installed, but I can't find any anywhere?

I figure since i have both of these devices that are bluetooth capable i wouldn't have to buy a usb bluetooth adapter. how to do this or if there's some required app or driver?
