I got the G1 for Christmas and I tried to use bluetooth on it to transfer a song I had on it to my freind's G1 and I couldn't find out how ro do it. I set the bluetooth up and linked the two phones but I couldn't do anything else. So if you have any answers or directions on how to use the bluetooth.

View 5 Replies View RelatedEven registering the broadcast receiver at the highest priority still fails to receive the Bluetooth media button events on the HTC Hero phone. The Bluetooth media button registration code works fine on the other Android phones that I have tested. Apparently this isn't the first time HTC has done something like this, as I also found a report of a similar problem on one of the HTC Microsoft Mobile Devices reported here
It seems extremely short sighted of HTC to code their media player so that it grabs the Bluetooth AVRCP media button events in such a way that other applications are unable to work with the Bluetooth head phone buttons and Bluetooth in car stereo systems.................
Almost a year ago I purchased the HT820 Motorolla headset so I could pair a bluetooth phone and mp3 player to the same headset. It worked fantastic. Now that I finally have my hands on the Google phone, I was hoping to dual pair the headset to the phone for both media and the phone.
I don't know if I am doing something wrong during the pairing procedure, but it will not play media through the headset, except in the second before dialing a contact or just after I hang up. Whatever music is playing, comes out of the speakers, but like I said if a call comes in, I hear the music through the headset until I answer, and then it pauses like it should, then plays again after I hang up but it switches back to the external speaker almost immediately.
It works fine for the phone, and in the Bluetooth list of devices, it shows as connected.
What do you use to transfer music to your android device?
Also, what is your favorite music player on the android? (the default one is just ok)
I manage my music collection with foobar2000 and my directories look like: 01 title.mp3...folder.jpg
So, android can't figure out the album art right now, has anyone had any experience solving this problem?
Also, I don't know if this is specific to my phone (galaxy with galaxo), but it does not recognize songs with chinese id3 tags (it shows up as ?).
I put the USB into my phone and then into the computer. I then mount it. I go into my music on computer, drag and drop music into the folder music on the SD card ( I think ). How comes I drag like 50 songs and only 11 go on there. I have a 8gb card. Can someone explain o me how to put music onto my phone. Allso, When on internet and watching a video on youtube or els where. The video plays fine. Then just stops every 5 secs and takes ages to load.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've checked the option on the phone for the FTP folder. I have made the phone discoverable, and then been able to see it on the Mac. I go through the whole thing on the Mac, enter the codes on the screen, etc. but it then gives me a warning on the Mac that my phone doesn't have any bluetooth profiles, and then simply says that the devices are paired, but not connected.I heard the Hero had all sorts of problems connecting with a Mac to transfer files, but one would think this new Evo would work, given the FTP folder option. Anybody have any ideas? Have you tried it on a Mac, and been able to get it to work?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI wanted to transfer files back and forth between my android pone and a laptop. Quite honestly I had never used bluetooth before, but since this phone has it I am playing around with it.I tried Astro and ES File explorer, but those work only if I need to transfer files between phones.I then found out Bluetooth File Transfer which lets me share files between my phone and my laptop. That app is very nice, and also by the same developer Dual File Manager.both free from the market.But I supposed file transfer via bluetooth between a laptop or other devices and the phone was a given.Is an extra app absolutely necessary or did I miss something? What other File Managers with bluetooth support do you know of?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI was playing around with my old LG Versa today. My son is using it for a camera. He's 7. I went to the bluetooth menu on the phone, put the device in discovery mode, and transferred a picture to the Versa from my Incredible. I thought shit, I wonder if I can transfer music this way. When I open up ES File Explorer, it has the option for bluetooth, but I cannot access the Versa from there. Does the Versa need a memory card to access from file explorer. It tells me invalid path or something.
Just found share option in stock music player. I use "3" instead for the album art, but the stock has bluetooth share. Now I gotta see if it works.
I am trying to tidy up contacts and want to transfer all the contacts on my Desire to my PC, tidy them and send them back. I had a look at the other thread s on this but they don't seem to cover Desire.
It seems I can only transfer contacts as VCards, one at a time, via bluetooth, is this the case? That would be a pain.
So, what are the alternatives? I think I can use sync but I'm not sure how. Any other options? Using the built in mailer in Desire, I assume, since I didn't load another one, and using Thunderbird on PC, if that info is pertinent.
I have been using astro to send files via bluetooth. I noticed however, that the type of files you can send is limited. It seems I can send pics & MP3s, but not PDFs or APKs for example. If i try to 'send' them in astro, I only get the mail or gmail options. Is this normal, or can't I drive the phone properly again?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm currently developing a simple app with the following functions:
So far I've managed to make the View Files work by viewing files and folders in the memory card, but I haven't added any function other than being able to view them.
Here is the code for the FileManager.java class, I just copied it from a site because I just wanted to test out if the code could really view files. I have yet to be able to make my own file manager code:
Code:
package com.android.bluetoothfiletransfer;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FilenameFilter;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import android.app.Activity;
[Code] ......
All other buttons are nonfunctional. Can I ask for preferably codes for the functions I'm looking for? I'm just planning to use this as a stepping stone for future apps.
I have several CDROMs with lectures on them and I would like to somehow transfer those lectures into my HTC Droid Incredible. My guess is that I somehow have to save the data on the Cds to my desktop computer and then from there save it to the phone.
