Greetings everyone. I am having an issue with my Ascend 2. I am trying to connect my bluetooth to my carPC. The carPC uses 3DSP Mini PCIe Bluetooth/Wifi card installed into the machine. Originally these come USB but was integrated into the machine. I am using BlueSoleil to connect the phone to the PC. This software lists services available from the bluetooth device it connects to (Personal Area Network [PAN], Serial, Printing, etc...)
When I connect the phone to the PC I only get Object Push (vCards).
Does anyone know how to make more services available via bluetooth?
Im not even sure what service I need in order to dial out of my stereo (carPC), but I think it would be headset microphone.
Any ideas/custom ROM's I can use to establish dialing?

Hi, Is anyone aware of a software that can enable me to dial a number from my desktop, through a pocketpc connected over a USB cradle (and make use of the PC headphone/microphone for conversation).
Thanks,
Prashanth
ms have a free program which give you the screen of the pda connected as a window on the pc
remote something is it's name
you can try search for remote AND pc
it's likely to turn up
Hmmm right. But will the remote control software allow me to use the PC mic/headphones instead of the ones on the PDA?
i am able to use my pc as bluetooth headset - i cant dial number but i can talk through my computers mic and speakers. depending on your pc's bt stack it might not work i guess - i am using widcomm one.
Thankyou banannq and rudegar for your help. The issue was with the BlueSoleil stack. Now with PDA remote control and widcomm stack (laptop) things are working fine.

Ok guys, here is the scoop:
I just purchased a new laptop with the following relevant specs:
Windows 7 Home Premium
Integrated Broadcomm Bluetooth Adapter
Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1
I am using the standard (non-modified) T-Mobile HD2.
When I try to pair the two, there is an error on the laptop talking about how the "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" driver did not install properly, but others did. I can use some functions of the bluetooth pairing such as going through the file system to the device and transferring files from the phone to the computer. However, Windows Mobile Device Center does not recognize the phone as "connected" even though the option to allow the phone to connect via bluetooth is selected.
Also, I can not go through my phone to "push" a file from the phone to the computer. Actually, any bluetooth related action fails if initiated through the phone.
I have searched for hours on this issue and can not seem to find a resolution that works anywhere on the internet.
Hi, hopefully someone can help me with the following question :
I just flashed my Polaris100 to Android 2.2, which works very good now. I'd like to use this device with the XCSoar navigation program, which normally gets its GPS data via the built in GPS.
During winter I'd like to connect my polaris to my Mac via Bluetooth using the serial port service, so that XCSoar can get it's NMEA data from my soaring simulator (SilentWings). So I need to transfer NMEA data from my Mac to my Polaris. This helps me to practice during the winter period. In WM6.1 this was easily done, because:
a) the serial service was build in
b) all used com-ports were shown in the settings menu or could be hacked to show/be edited.
So my questions are:
a) how can I activate the serial service in Android
b) how can I see which com-port is then used for my polaris BT connection (I need to set this port in XCSoar as external device)
I could not find a workable solution on the www or on this forum. I mean "workable", because most solutions or discussions are written in very technical terms and code, but I am an end-user and not familiar with all these terms. I do not know terminal commands as well...
Thanks for your help, Reno
I've never used Bluetooth, I connected to the computer through USB
Eh... what do you suggest by that? Although USB stands for Universal Serial Bus, it isn't recognized by the GPS app as a com-port. As I understood in that case I need a usb-serial service on both my mac as my android, right?
So can you be more specific and tell me how to do it with a usb connection?
Thanks, R.
Hey everyone !
So here's the problem : I've got a Nexus 7 + Galaxy S2 I727R that I'd like to use at work. I could tether the connection from my S2 to my tablet and use that but I'm not on unlimited data plan. I also know I can share my PC connection via Bluetooth but that'd need a specific software to be installed, in the lines of stuff like BlueSoleil. Considering I have no admin rights at workplace, is there any alternative that would permit me to share the PC connection via a Bluetooth dongle without installing a software ? The BT dongle is detected AND installed via Windows 7 but there is no BT icons in the bottom-right corner and there's no built-in BT-software on the computer.
I did my research on the PortableApps forum, which would be a decent option but I can't seem to find anything...
Anyone had any luck sharing Internet over BT on a workplace PC ?
Thanks.
P.S : Remember, no admin rights.
Sorry you can't use a BT dongle without some sort of bluetooth software installed
Yes there are bluetooth dongles which are plug and play, which don't need installing drivers, see these ones for example
BLUETOOTH ADAPTER DONGLE PC LAPTOP-PLUG "N" PLAY - UK
Tiny Plug & Play Bluetooth 2.0 USB Dongle 100m range
Mini Bluetooth Dongle for Computers and Laptops - Plug N Play Transfer Files
Problem is all of them support Bluetooth 2.0 not 2.1+EDR, please advise and please help find a bluetooth dongle which is plug and play and is designed for bluetooth 2.1+EDR
Thing is, even with the bluetooth dongle working you won't be able to share Internet connection through ICS without admin rights. If anyone has a workaround on this, it would be appreciated!! I'd like to use my S2 more at work, but with 250mb / month it's left unused most of the day =/

So I ran into this problem recently after I installed an Android headunit into my car. The device can only receive internet one of two ways. Either I use my hotspot on my phone and connect to my phone's internet to allow my cars headunit to play music OR I use a 4G LTE USB dongle and attach it to my headunit directly. The problem with the second option is the following. When I plug the 4g LTE dongle into the USB port of the Android headunit, the device is not recognized. I know the device works because I've plugged it into my laptop and received internet no problem. I'm assuming this is because this particular USB dongle only operates using windows RNDIS driver. Since it seems there are very few products on the market (4g LTE USb sim dongles), the best solution I can come up with is maybe compiling an RNDIS driver for Android? The current dongle I have is the third one Ive purchased, the first two didn't work at all with my GSM sim. One was just faulty and the other for European Frequencies. I'm wondering if compiling a RNDIS driver for Android would even work in this case so that my car headunit can recognize and receive internet from the 4g LTE USB dongle.? Or if anyone knows of a dongle that works with gsm sims and works fine with android?
