I have an eclipse/tomtom car stereo that uses a cellular connection via bluetooth for updates/traffic jam warnings/camera locations and realtime detours+handsfree and even text messaging on the touchscreen indash. All these features and more worked with my $59 boost mobile prepay phone and my blackberry. The only thing that works with my sgs4g is the handsfree. It tells me these bluetooth services are not supported. Is there any way to get support for these features/services? Also Is bluetooth stack the proper term for what I'm looking for?

As I remember my TomTom from several years ago, it needed the equivalent of Bluetooth data tethering. It it pretty rare on newer phones, at least the US ones I've seen. I suspect that carrier specs to the manufacturer have someone to do with it.
If you knew what Bluetooth profile you needed, you might be able to rework the Framework to support it, but I haven't seen a lot of requests.

Hey everyone. User, Lokifish, over on the Evo 4G forums ahs developed a way to use the Evo4g as a desktop PC. He fields requests to port his stuff as long as there is a desire for the technology in the new device's community. This thread is a petition I am starting to have this tech ported to the G2X. I know not everyone would use it but it would help me out a lot. Im sure there are other folks out here that would like it as well. Here is a link to his thread so you guys can see what he's done with it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1038840 Personally, my g2x is more powerful than my little netbook and i would much rather use the g2x all the time than have to mess with my PC. so please support guys. I love CM7, love Faux's kernel. LOve all the work you all have been doing for our device. Please just drop your name. say you would be interested so I can get Lokifish to port. Thanks everyone and if this is misplaced I apologize. I think it would be cool at the very least. Thanks guys!
hell yes this would be sweet!
I 2nd this motion anyway to limit the use windows

Well if anyone can confirm this than i guess its a moot point. I already use LCD Density changer to give me mroe screen real estate. Would want to know if a pointer shows on the screen with BT mouse. Biggest thing would be implementing a windowed UI. that way we can switch apps quickly if using for desktop use.
That would be sweet. I am all for it.

Me.
I don't see which are the benefits of this over a PC at all.
I'm pretty sure CM7 supports all this already. I have a bluetooth mouse and keyboard at home, and a HDMI cable.
Essentially what you do is lower the DPI setting to give you a Desktop-like resolution, then on a monitor it runs just like a basic Linux distro. A good email and office application, browser, etc. Basic stuff.
(FYI-This kind of stuff is why I wanted a separate power/HDMI port)
Is there an app that enables your phone to directly be an fm transmitter? Instead of having to hook up a transmitter to your phone, is it possible to transmit directly from the phone with the given hardware? I would believe there is due to the radio app on the phone...
Not 100% sure but I believe that is something that has to be built into the phone itself. Theres no app that I'm aware of that can do this but maybe someone else can chime in if I'm wrong.

Not that I know of...but that would be a cool feature to have.

The hardward is not built into the phone. It would be handy though.
I heard the Fire had Bluetooth but wasn't activated...can anyone confirm or deny it....also can anyone get bluetooth working on this!
Thanks
No bluetooth

Many devices are not working with this feature yet, but rest assured, I will be releasing a fix soon!
Unlimited 4g. I'm sure you've all heard about it. I went and checked it out. Apparently the only catch is you can't hotspot. But since I'm rooted and running cm7 I should be able to still use hotspot with a third party app, right?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
Tethering is built into cm7, no need for an app.. and you might need to change the user agent on the device you tether so you don't get the tmobile redirect.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda app-developers app
I am on the unlimited 4g, if I use Firefox, default settings, it seems to work fine. IE blows in the first place, but for the sake of mentioning it, and doesn't work, routes everything to a page telling me to buy tethering. I can also torrent just fine. I guess part of it is just the port it's set to listen on, 80, and if there is activity on other ports, so what.
Edit: also, SSL sites work.

I use the hotspot for my laptop and my lady's g2x. She is on the monthly 4g I'm not concerned with using my laptop, it's her g2x that worries me. I don't see how tmobile would catch on. But I wanted to run it by you guys before switching and potentially voiding my contract
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
so what your saying here is that if i switch to the New Unlimited Nationwide 4g data package i wont be able to tether my tablet to my phone?
That's what they told me but (I may be wrong) if you are using a custom rom or just rooted with a thrid party hotspot app tmobile want be able to detect or stop you, right?

I use Google Chrome & change the user agent. Give that a go.
How do you do that without an add-on
I figured it out. I sometimes forget Google answers all.
