[Q] BT-Tethering is loosing it's connection... - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
I'm tethering my Xoom running Team EOS nightlies with my Galaxy Nexus running CM9 using bluetooth (all with the included settings).
It works, but I always loose the connection after a few minutes. I manually have to reconnect. That's pretty annoying...
Why does this happen and what can I do against that? Is there a way to make my Xoom automatically connect to my SGN when I turn on BT? Just like other devices (i.e. my BT headset) do?
Thanks
McDV

Just to get it out of the way, are you xoom and SGN close to each other? Bluetooth gets more shaky the further the devices are away from each other.
And are you running the latest EOS Nightly on your Xoom? The latest CM9 Nightly on your GNex?

[Q] CM9: Bluetooth tethering

Hi there,
is bluetooth tethering working in CM9 on the HTC Desire S aka Saga? I'm running the CM9 alpha build of 13 June 2012.
I have a HP Touchpad aka Tenderloin, also running under CM9. I want the tablet to use the phone's 3G connection. Pairing of the two devices is fine. I also checked the option on the Tenderloin to use the paired device's internet connection... But it's not working. The tablet has no internet connection.
What do you think were the problem is, on the phone or on the tablet?
What is missing? Can a noob like me help? I'm a coder, but new to Android hacking.
Regards.

VZW GS3 CM10 (8/22 Build) Wifi apps issue

Hello-
Since I just joined XDA, I am not allowed to post this under the CM10 section yet. I am having problems with CM10 on my VZW S3 with apps such as PC Monitor, Onkyo Remote and WiFi tether that send/verify data over wifi. Wifi and the app foxfi are working perfectly. Can someone try the PC Monitor app on CM10 on the S3 or the Onkyo Remote (if you have an Onkyo receiver) and let me know if it is working for you? I can stream Pandora radio to my receiver but local music can't be sent to the receiver (which works on my ICS rom). PC Monitor will show my PC, but will not send the wakup or shutdown commands (almost like nothing is being sent). Could it be these apps are not working for Jelly Bean? I don't have a Nexus 7 to give them a shot. If anyone can help me out, I appreciate it. Thanks!
I've got stock JB installed on my Xoom, and I don't have any issues using the Onkyo app....
Doesn't seem to be a JB issue; could it be network or AVR issue?

[Q] Bluetooth Tether auto reconnect

Hey Folks,
I've been using my Note GT-N7000 to tether with my Note 10.1 over bluetooth, which works just great if I explicitly connect the two. However, if say for example, the Note 10.1 is in my office, and the Note GT-N7000 is in my pocket, and I leave the office, the two won't automatically reconnect to each other when I return. I have to manually connect them again.
Is there any way to have the two automatically reconnect to each other when they are in proximity?
Thanks,
Drkmtr
Hey drkmtr, sorry I don't have an answer for you. I'd love to be able to get the bluetooth tethering to work. I'm also using a GT-N7000 and a Note 10.1 but I have had no luck. Are you using a 3rd party app to share the internet?
In my case everything connects, on my Note 10.1 the box "Use for internet access" is checked in bluetooth settings. But it just doesn't work for me.
Thanks for your reply mate,
The BT tethering works out of the box for me, no third party apps required, although I am running a custom ICS ROM on the N7000. How have you got your N7000 setup? I assume you have BT tethering enabled in your N7000 settings?
You could try a third party app "BT Auto Tethering" on the N7000 and it's sister app "BT Auto Connect" on the 10.1... both available from the market gratis.

I'm running Paranoid JB nightlies on my phone and stock on the tablet. Thanks for the market apps I, will give those a try.
Maybe I should go back ti ics on my phone.
I do this exact same thing as well and I haven't figured out a way to get them to auto connect either

Did anyone find a way to get auto-reconnect functionality with BT tethering?
I tether my Note to my Evo 3D using the stock BT tethering while at work. It works great except for my phone's crappy connection in my building (I blame Rogers).
Also, is anyone else experiencing drops in the tether connection when the Note sits idle for a while. If I initiate the tether, then let the tablet sit for a while unused, often when I pick it up to use it the tether connection is dead. The statusbar still states there's a tethered internet connection (as it does on my Evo 3D), but none of my apps will be able to connect to the web. The only way to re-establish the link is to turn BT off on the Note, and then turn it back on and re-initiate the tether.
Ooo... my 1,000th post.

Bluetooth tether on CM10.1 Nightly

I am using the latest version of CM10.1 nightly. The usb tethering and bluetooth tethering both failed to work. They worked fine when I switch back to Viper Sense Rom. I thought it was the Radio compatibility, but now I've tried all the radios from the Temporary Radio Installer, and they all failed to enable the tethering functions. The Bluetooth tethering function is ticked and my macbook shows a successful connection with my phone, but I just couldn't get any webpage loaded. Same thing on my ipad.
Bluetooth tethering is pretty important for me. And I love the simplicity of CM Roms. Can anyone help?
Thank you guys so much!!

[Q] Problems With Bluetooth In CM 10.1.2

I just installed CM 10.1.2 on My Nexus S. The phone performs way better now, but I am having troubles with Bluetooth. I can pair with my keyboard (HP Touchpad BT KB), but it doesn't seem to connect. Likewise, I can pair with my notebook (Win 8), but When I try to connect to the Internet through Bluetooth tethering, the connection doesn't work. Both these things worked on stock JB.
Any advice?
