[APP-REQ] "Locale" for WinMob (Programm to switch Bluetooth and Wifi on by shedule)

[APP-REQ] "Locale" for WinMob (Programm to switch Bluetooth and Wifi on by shedule)
Already started the same thread in blackstine-specific-forum, hope u wont kill me
More people can see it now, think its also interesting for a lot of people
--->
is there a programm which can be used to switch bluetooth and wifi on by shedule or even by locating u by gps or gsm?
For example:
Monday to Friday i quit work at 18:30.
In my car I've got a bluetooth car-kit.
So the programm should just switch bluetooth on at 18:30.
19:00 I'm at home, so bluetooth should be switched of and wifi on
23:00 i go to bed and so wifi and bluetooth--->off
Is there a programm out there?
I know the programm "locale" for android which can do the things i mentioned above but it can also use gps and mobile-locating by gsm.
That would be awesome of course.
just imagine: U go to work and the programm just switches off the ringtones and sets it to vibtrate, switched off bluetooth and wifi and so one. Even if u go there earlier and so one because it locates u by gps or gsm.
So let me kno guys

You might want to take a look into G-Profile. Does this and more.

Will take a look at it, but maybe someone has got another programm?

or you can just use H/W button shortcuts to quickly enable or disable wifi/bluetooth

How To?: Use Fuze as external GPS to Laptop over Bluetooth

I cannot believe how difficult it has been to find a solution to this problem.
My, seemingly basic, need is to use the internal gps of my fuze as an external gps on my laptop. I already have my laptop teathered to my phone over a bluetooth PAN and use this as my primary internet connection seeing as I live out of my truck.
I have found GPS2Blue which seems like it was made for exactly what I need, but I can't get it to work and there are virtually no instructions provided. I have seen other people say they got it to work, but without explanation.
I have also found GPSProxy, which claims to do what I need but isn't free. I would be willing to pay for this solution, but their instructions say you can't share your GPS and also have other bluetooth activity, which means my internet connection would go down.
I think, but am unsure, that the heart of my problem is that I need to "Create Outgoing Port" on the Com Ports page of the Bluetooth settings page. However, there is no such buttton on that screen.
Can anyone please help if you have successfully shared your Raphael internal GPS with a laptop over bluetooth.
Thanks

Missing feature: Add Nic to Android

Can't believe it.. It really seems not possible to share my PC Internet connection to my Android phone (HTC Desire), because Android OS simply forgot the option to add a new connection..
It is NOT thetering 3G internet to my desktop, but the other way around..
Sooo easy on a Windows Mobile, Simply possible on Symbian with gnubox. Why suck up my 3G data plan if I have a perfect Internet connection just in front of me most of the time. Of course, at work for example there is no WiFi available.
Bluetooth PAN would be great, it is available on almost every laptop. Wifi Ad-Hoc is also an option, but is not detected by Android. Why? Is Android sponsored by Telco Companies or something?
Searched for a while and found a discussion where someone says: "Yes, if you root your phone, and you are happy to mess around editing the wireless config files to add an ad-hoc wireless connection.
But why is'nt there a simple app to do this?

[Q] Android and DUN / Tether to Blackberry

Problem: Have a Samsung Galaxy Tab, and a Blackberry Bold 9700. I want to use the 9700's 3g Internet on the Tab.
I have been experimenting with this app on the Android side:
android.gval.biz Bluetooth Dial up Network
This App so far has not let me connect to the Bold. I am wondering if anyone can recommend an alternate app that will work on the Tab. This program is about the closest I've seen to a solution, allowing me to modify the connection script to account for my carrier's APN settings. For whatever reason, it seems like the software can't even utilize the BT hardware on the Tab itself.
I am currently looking for Blue Soleil for Android. This also looks like a promising App.
The concept should follow how I tether to the 9700 using BT DUN on my laptop. Wouldn't something like this be relatively easy to do on Android?
I would really appreciate any input or thoughts on the subject.
I too have been trying to do the same thing. Surely there is a way / app that will allow tethering. Anyone found a way?

Bluetooth tether to blackberry.

I have run into a new and annoying problem. I have two phones. The first is a stock drod x2 the other a blackberry bold.
My work requires I carry the blackberry and they pay for tethering for my phone. I want to use bluetooth tethering to use my blackberries data on my p6210.
I setup the bluetooth and paired the blackberry to the p6210. When I do this the icon shows the wrench icon, when I open this no profiles are listed.
I verified all the profiles are checked and enabled on the blackberry.
So I grabbed my dx2 and paired the two, now when I open the wrench on the dx2 it shows "Internet Access" now I don't pay for tethering on my personal phone so I did not connect.
Anyone know why there isn't a DUN profile showing up on my p6210 even though it's enabled on the blackberry.

It's not available with the stock firmware. I don't know currently if it can be made available with kernel, firmware or application changes (but if you read the ad-hoc thread, I think I remember something about BT tethering being mentioned.)

Hmmmm, that does not make sense. I don't not want use wifi to tether. The wifi was actually shut off while testing. Just the bluetooth. Like I was saying the dx2 was able to work right and the dun profile was working properly.
This sort of limited functionality is stunning. Android should be the open connected platform but we have device missing simple options that even palm and old windows mobile 5 had.
We are missing both directions of Bluetooth and usb networking plus adhoc wireless. This is truly sad.

Oh, I misunderstood... You want to use your BB DUN from your tablet via BT? I'm not even sure if I have anything with a DUN profile to test with...

GT7p6210 support Bluetooth tethering, but only to several type of Android phones, not to others. That's why you did not see the DUN profile on the p6210for the blackberry. It does not work on the WM phone either.
GT7p6210 is my first Andoid device, so disspointed.
Is there a file we can change to help the p6210 recognize more bluetooth tether devices Profiles?
