[Q] HTC Desire Bluetooth paired but not connected - General Questions and Answers

Hi all,
Recently I got a problem with my HTC Desire.
I can search and pair with other Bluetooth devices (laptop, other cell phones, etc.) but I cannot connect with them (I use to connect before - but now I can't).
I've already tried "Hard Reset", installed Bluetooth file transfer, remove and add the devices.
However, nothing seems to help.
Does anyone have an idea?
Help please!!!
(and thanks in advance)

Do you think factory reset would make it work again?

damn bad problem mate

Problem solved
Hi,
Just to update:
I installed ADW Launcher and noticed that some applications I used to have and disappeared - appeared again (I thought it had something to do with the hard reset I did).
Anyway, I figured I might try to connect via Bluetooth again and it started to work!!!
Something in the HTC sense launcher (or the ROM I had - which came from the shop...) caused this problem...
Hope this could help others.

Unusual Activesynv via Bluetooth issue

Hi all,
I have searched and searched the forum and the internet but can find no answer to this issue.
I'm using an HTC Touch Dual (Neon 200) that I had set up to connect to my PC via bluetooth for Activesync.
No problems there, it all worked fine. The issue comes with my attempts to automate the synchronization. I had found and successfully used a program called CT Scheduler to start the bluetooth radio and then instigate the "Windows/repllog.exe" file to start a bluetooth activesync.
In Activesync, on the Touch, I go to "Menu-->Connections--->when cradled, synchronize all pc's using.........."
I had the option to select "`USB" or "`DIRECTORSOFFICE" (the name of my PC).
Now, I have no idea how the "`DIRECTORSOFFICE" option got there but I selected it and it all worked fine. I could connect via USB or Bluetooth and the auto-sync worked fine.
BUT, Here's the kicker, after a hard reset, I've restablished all my connections via bluetooth etc. and can manually initiate a sync via bluetooth. HOWEVER in the Activesync connections I can no longer select aything other than "`USB". For the life of me I cannot remember how I got the Touch to give me that other option and it is the ONLY thing preventing the auto bluetooth sync from working.
Any insight would be much appreciated.
Hi and welcome to XDA,
did you do a H-Reset or a new rom flash? the new rom may not support BT Activesync, you should also pair your phone to your PC, that may enable the option
Eh - my bad...should have specified in my OP. This is running stock WinMo 6.1 Professional.
Did you pair to your PC?
Not this time around.....dammit you know that sounds like it might be it! I'll have to a backup, hard reset and try it out.
If that's truly the case and I can get that option available again then I have a really tidy solution for people wanting to Autosync via Bluetooth.
(Although this is probably not an issue nowadays as most phones are coming with WiFi, so I guess people are syncing that way)

OK, got too excited there. Of course I must have paired it with the PC or I wouldn't have been able to Activesync via BT manually right?

Depends what stack you have
Sorry, i don't think i can help
If i find anything, i'll let you know
Default MS BT stack for WinMo Pro 6.1. I haven't changed anything on this ROM at all.
I must have done something during BT setup that allowed that option to appear but I'll be damned if I can remember what it was!
It's not a huge deal as I luckily had a backup with that configuration working, I was just being a bit anal about doing a complete clean install, there were a few programs I wanted to get rid of and felt my phone had slowed up a bit.
Cheers.

Bluetooth issue?

Good afternoon,
First thank you all for all your hard work. I have been lurking here for about a week and i have found many useful threads and apps. I have a gtab (guess that is obvious) that is currently running Vegan-B3(tried TnT 2.2.1 and TnT 2.4 as well) and im trying to pair it with my droid INC (rooted but OTA still installed) so that i can connect the GPS to the Gtab. I have read all i can find but still im getting stuck. The two will pair but not connect(i can connect to my pc and send audio so i assume the BT module is fucntioning fine)..... Tether is fine (i can browse the web using the verizon hotspot app and share gps is installed on the phone). So that is issue one. Issue 2 is i can not find the bluetooth gps app in the market on the tablet (i have tried the fix many times(as well as the "new fix") but it never comes up) im also having an issue finding the app so tht i can sideload it (googoo android doesnt seem to have a website).
thanks for your time and advice.
Resolved
I solved this issue. Blue tooth doesnt show "connected" but works just fine. I wasnt able to fix the market place but i did find another app that worked (i was so focused on following the dirs before that it didnt really occur to me to look for another app until late last night). http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833094
1. connected to the phone hotspot (gtab)
2. turn on GPS share (INC)
3. turn on BlueGPS4Droid (gtab)
4. tested it on a route i know well
Seemed to work just fine

Bluetooth pairing with Car

I have a 2011 Jeep Grand Chreokee. When I first got the phone, it paired fine and I was able to make and receive calls through the BT. I had this setup for about 1-2 days. I then rooted the phone with the stock ROM only removing bloat ware...now I cannot connect via bluetooth back to the car. It seems to connect then disconnect me right away. Ideas?
I know this seems obvious but have you tried unpairing and repairing the phone to the car? Sometimes bluetooth can get fidgety and most of the time it requires you to repair the device. In my experience that generally solves the issues I have had with bluetooth.
Any time I have factory restored my phone I have had to repair it to any Bluetooth devices it was once connected to. Not sure if the Bluetooth address changes for the phone or not on a reset or ROM change, but it seems to be the case. My Infiniti G37s has Bluetooth and I experienced the same issue as you, pair it again and see if that helps.
Thanks for replies...I tried to repair about 6 different times...same result. It seem that the phone and audio connections both connect for about 2 seconds, then the phone disconnects.
Funny, I wanted to try this but kept forgetting. So I just went down to my garage and tried it, and it paired successfully on the first try. Tried making a call via number/phonebook and it all worked.
I'm rooted running Das BAMF 1.3, and paired it with a '11 Sonata Limited.
So I got it working...but without the phone book downloaded. The issue is in fact when it tries to download the phone book. Need to get another phone loaded up with my contacts and do a sync to get phone book loaded to car.

Did you do anything to get it working?
When the device asked me to allow connection to download the phone book, I declined, only then would it pair properly.
I think I figured it out, I have the Infiniti G37, when I rooted & re-paired the Bluetooth, somehow I ignored the question when it popped up asking to "allow" or "deny" the connection.
Yesterday during the whole 4G fiasco, I reflashed & had to re do everything this morning, when I paired my BT, it asked me whether to allow & this time I clicked allow & my BT connects & stays connected fine now.
My question is, is there a way to delete the BT pairing on the phone without having to completely wipe the phone with a reflash?

nevermind, I just found the answer

just hold down "paired"
I believe the issue is just with the MyGig radio on the Chrysler products. I have a SRT8 Magnum with the MyGig and allowing it to download the address book "Breaks" the B.T. connection. I don't know what the issue is? Perhaps too much information being sent to the MyGig and it "locks up"?
I also have a Ford Focus for a daily driver and allowing it to download the Address Book over the phone has no such issue.

It does it on my aftermarket Kenwood double-din unit, too. I've seen it happen on several Ford units too.

I updated my 430N radio with the latest firmware update and phone book downloaded and BT is working without getting disconnected.
Thanks
Thanks for that info. Although I can't do it as I have the "MyGig" retro-fitted into my 07 SRT. So, if I apply the "official update" I will lose GPS time and a bunch of other things.
But, nice to know it works.

[Q] bluetooth connection to htc magic running cm6.1

I'm trying to tether the transformer to my phone via Bluetooth and it doesn't seem to work. They will pair but refuse to connect. Tapping on the device does nothing too. I've tried re-pairing them a couple of times to no avail. Is anybody experiencing this?
Yes, I know the phone is old.....gonna upgrade soon!
I'm having the same issue with my INC with cm7.03

Would you try "market BT file transfer" for connecting?

Which tethering app did you use?
And, did you try to make your magic to be able to access internet via Transformer?

Works thanks!
Bloody hell, that works! Thanks!
What did that Bluetooth File Transfer app do though?
@kaguyahouraisan
I was simply using the Wireless Tether app on the market.
I just installed Bluetooth File Transfer app on my TF but I'm still not able to tether my TF to my phone via BT for internet access. Can someone please post more detailed instructions.
Thanks.
I installed it on both my TF and the Magic. Pair them up as per normal, then connect them via the BT File Transfer app. Once I got them to connect, I could connect them through the Bluetooth settings page without needing the BT File Transfer anymore.

OPO not connecting to Nikon WiFi

Hi,
I recently bought a Nikon Coolpix P610 with built-in WiFi. When I tried to connect my OPO (factory ROM, up-to-date with OTA to 5.1.1 Cyanogen 12.1-YOG4PAS3JL) with the camera WiFi, my cellphone never reach to an IP address.
I have installed the app "Wireless Mobile Utility" from Nikon. I read that the app is compatible with several phone but the OPO isn't on the list so it might not work, but i need it to work.
The camera work just fine because I tried with a Samsung Galaxy S3 mini and it was okey.
I wonder if anyone had the same problem and could fix it or if you can help me to figure it out.
I tried to connect it through an static IP instead DHCP but I failed, I don't know if i'm doing it right.
Thankys in advance

As far as I know, Nikon Cooplix P610 doesn't have the WPS button, and the menu doesn't have the option like in D5300. So, you are forced to connect the smart device trough a tipical WiFi connection, like if the camera was a modem. And it didn't work :s

You don't need wps button , in 5300 connect using wps is inside WiFi settings ,so maybe your cam has that too

No, like I said, I did search the menu of D5300 and it's different to P610's menu. That's why I'm so concern about this because my only option is connect the smart device through a typical WiFi network generated by the camera.
I think that the problem is in my phone settings or how to fix it through a static IP addres, not at the camera, but I don't know how to solve it
Hi.. I am facing the same problem, not able to connect my one plus 2 with nikon d5300. Have got WMU installed, the phone says connected however camera shows not connected and when i open the app, it also says not connected... Please advise.

Hi. I have to say that with the following OTA of my phone that I received the problem was solved. So, I can't help you.
What can I say to you is that I talked to the Oneplus Support and they were very gentle and after like two months talking trying to explain my problem I managed to make an online appointment where they study my phone. Finally, because of my PC's operating system they couldn't upload some files in my phone to solve the problem. But the analyst I was talking said he would raise my problem to developers, and in fact, they solved the problem in the next update. If you really need this solved, you should try to talk to support, even most in your case, because your device has Oxygen.
I hope my answer helps you. Regards.
