I am trying to pair my Droid 2 with my Gtab to use as a GPS. When pairing via bluetooth, everything goes fine but once the pairing is successful there is no connection, only paired but not connected. Rebooting does not help and when I long press on either device there is no option to connect, only unpair. I am running VEGAn beta 3 on the Gtab. Anyone know of a solution??
please see
I had the same issue (althoug it was with a HTC). http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=874401 <--hope this helps
Thats normal. Whether I pair my tab with my phone or my bluetooth GPS device, the bluetooth settings shows Paired but not connected. I go into my "Bluetooth GPS" app to initiate the connection. When using my phone "ShareGPS" has to be setup and running.
Thanks for the quick reply guys....I'll try it out on the way home tonight to see if all is indeed working as it should.
I have tried to connect my Xoom to my Tbolt via Bluetooth to share files to no avail. I successfully pair, but they never connect. Anyone having similar issues? anyone have a solution?
I just tested this with my xoom and bolt. Try clicking on the file to bring up the share menu. Click bluetooth and it should start after confirming. I have only done this with photos. I thought it would say paired AND connected but it only says connected when I intiate a file transfer.

That did the trick, thanks!!
I've been waiting and waiting for ICS to come out, so that I can use bluetooth tethering to my PC at work, like I do with my wifi-only Xoom. Unfortunately, this seems to be disabled. Can someone please confirm this and let me know if there is a way to enable it? I've seen the thread about enabling it on the 4.0.4 leak with the SQLLite hack, but I'm not sure this would work with the new ICS.
Thanks!
Though I have another Bluetooth issue (mentioning it here cause it also lists a driver issue in computer which is a common issue) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1931540
I have mentioned therein I was successfully able to establish BT tether (will probably post a screenshot later) but If I recall, I had to right click the device (our phone listed under "Printers & Devices" on Win 7) & then click connect & only then the tether went thru successfully and until then it did not. I hope it makes sense to you. BT Tether is very much part of ICS 4.0.4 stock OTA upgrade (can't say about custom ROM's)
Same Here

My son always tethered to my Atrix 2 with his ipod touch and he also can no longer connect since I updated to stock ICS. I'm rooted and using SQLite Editor, but I see nothing in the settings.db that remotely looks like enabling bluetooth PAN (tethering). Anyone else have a fix?
Can't bluetooth tether anymore
I used to connect my android tablet to my atrix 2 over bluetooth with GB on the atrix 2 and have internet on the tablet. Now with ICS on the atrix 2, I no longer have the internet profile listed under bluetooth when connecting to it from the tablet, and I cannot get internet to my tablet.
It appears that downgrading my OTA ICS is not an option (but I'm still searching), so am I hoping that I can enable this bluetooth ability again. Has anyone found a way to do this?
I am having a similar issue, I just got a nexus 7 and was hoping to bluetooth tether my A2 to it. I don't use bluetooth really at all, but I wanted to use it for this. When I first tried to set it up I could pair my A2 to my N7 but it wouldn't connect. I tried connecting my A2 to my laptop, same thing, it would pair but not connect. However, I could pair, connect, and transfer files between my N7 and my laptop.
I cleared data from bluetooth share and rebooted, no luck.
I cleared data from bluetooth dun and rebooted. At this point I could pair, connect and transfer files with my A2 and laptop, but still couldn't connect with N7.
I downloaded bluetooth file transfer from the market. It said that I could only transfer files to the other device not from it (same thing whether I did it from the A2 or N7). It said that I connected, but when I tried to transfer a file I would get an error.
I downloaded foxfi and pdanet table from the market, couldn't connect or tether with this either.
I did a factory reset, still laptop worked, N7 didn't.
When I go into the bluetooth setting on my A2 or my N7 the only options I have for either are to change name, or unpair.
After each troubleshooting step, I tried to see if my N7 was able to access my A2's data, but it never could.
I have searched extensively and have been unable to find an answer or a solution.
Essentially, I want to tether my A2 to my N7 with bluetooth, They will pair witheachother but they will not connect. Help?

Hi,
my Nexus S does strange things when I try to use apps which use bluetooth.
For example I wanted to use a presentation app which needs an app on my phone and an additional software on my pc. When I connect both via wlan everything works just fine. When trying the same with bluetooth, it shows a "cannot connect to device" infobox on the Nexus for the split of a second and performs a hot reboot.
It makes no difference whether I pair the devices first or try to do this within the app.
This happens with other bluetooth apps, too. Normal file transfer from one smartphone to another or a pc works fine!
Any ideas?

Hi,
I try to connect my P20 to my VW Tiguan. Using Android Auto everything works fine. When using MirrorLink, however, the connection happens, phone shows screen saying that "connected with mirrorlink", but car shows that no compatible apps found.
Anyone had any luck with it?
Which compatible apps do you have installed?

What did you do to get mirrorlink working, i plugged it in to the USB in my car but it doesn't seem to detect anything when pressing the connect button on the head unit.
I am going to buy this phone and I would figured out if mirrorlink works for this phone. Has anyone been able to work it out?
It will connect via the USB cable but also says no apps available, golf 7.5 2018
