[Q] Can't share net-connection from Galaxy3 to PC via BT.

Friends,
I have Samsung Galaxy3 with BSNL 3G. I want to share my 3G connection with my office PC(WinXP) via Bluetooth.
The problem is,
1. G3 doesn't support Bluetooth WAN. So, Am not being able to use Bluetooth tethering even with Wireless tethering applications.
2. I am able to use G3 as GSM Modem via Bluetooth and establish i-net connection. But, It only works for first couple of pages. But, afterwards, no webpage opens. Eventhough 'Network Connctions' shows it as conncted.
So Guys, What to do?
1. Can I enable BT teherng in G3?
2. I thereany solution to problem 2?
Thanxx.
P.S.- USB Tethering works flawlessly & I am on Stock Froyo.

I doubt if we can share the internet via bluetooth. But a better option is to use wifi ap. That is a better and works. I have even observed that wifi ap is faster that usb tethering.

I don't have wi-fi in my PC. I will need to buy wi-fi dongle to us wi-fi. I already have BT dongle, that' why my first preference is BT.

Bluetooth works only after Restart

Hey Guys,
i have a problem with my Samsung Omnia 7.
When my phone ist running and i want to activate bluetooth, the screen displays "searching" (in german "Suchen"). My phone wont find a device which is in the near and where i know, that i can connect normally.
I know that, because, when i turn bluetooth on and restart my phone, then after restart, i will find all the bluetooth devices in the near and i can connect for example with my laptop and play music from my phone on the laptop or hear the voice when im calling with someone.
But when i turn bluetooth off and after this on again, there is only the screen which diplasy "searching".
My bluetooth works only if after i turn bluetooth on before i restart my phone.
Sorry for my bad english , i hope you understand my problem.
Is there anybody with a same problem or anybody who can help me?

The HD2 has similiar problems with bluetooth and wifi together. However I'm not an Omnia 7 user.
Anyway, you can ask it in the Omnia 7 forum (which would be the correct one) or even better: Use the search tool and browse all existing bluetooth problems thread to see if someone has found a solution (There are plenty of it...). Thanks

thanks for your advice. after u told about the problem with bluetooth and wifi togehter, i just tested what happens if i activate wifi and bluetooth togehter and i was suprised to see that my bluetooth works. i can avtivate and deactivate and it just works in connection when wifi is "on". if i turn wifi off, bluetooth wont work anymore...
but thanks, so i have a workaround and can use it, i will search in thread with same problems, thanks!

Without rooting your phone, you can't do much to fix it on your own. Call your provider and have them push an OTA fix for you.

Hi!
Same problem, but could solved.
I connected the phone to pc via usb cable, then chosen internet pass through (not sure this is the correct name in english menu because i use hungarian).
It was able to synchronize, and the icon has gone.
Before updating sw wifi was on and after that i was not able using internet, however i had lan connection.
I used static ip. After changing to dhcp the problem is gone and i can use static ip again. Perhaps it was a dns error. My phone isn't rooted too. Sorry for my poor english

From what I've read, it's a DNS error and seems to affect users with static IP settings. Here's how I "solved" the problem:
1. Connect to another WiFi access point (I use my wife's Desire S to create a WiFi Hotspot)
2. Surf the net
3. Reconnect to your original WiFi access point
Note that it will revert once you restart the phone.

Thanks guys !
@trinyo: I did the same you written above ! when I connected my phone via Internet Pass through, that synchronize icon disappeared and internet started working, after that I disconnected the cable and connected my phone via Wireless internet but had same problem "WIFI din't work" although that synchronize icon not showing now.

Hi,
This is a Sensation forum.
Look HERE
And HERE

Thanks guys !
After automatic update on my HTC sensation XE to 3.33.111.107 soft update, I lost internet connection on some routers that I used to connect. Of course, HTC was connecting to routers without problem (DHCP or Static) but no internet connection. I can even enter to router setup page and do everything in setup, but no internet. It looks like DNS problem. I even put ip addres of google i browser addres bar, but nothing. I reset router, change security settings on ruoter, restart phone, erase wifi connection in phone.. :silly:
anyway... My internet over wifi router start working after:
1. connect to other phone hot spot in same room where is problematic router (d-link DIR615)
2. surf little on internet over hot spot network
3. click on hot spot network and select on forget network
4. connect to router wifi network
Again, thanks guys :highfive: for idea to do something simple and stupid like this above to fix my problem with HTC internet connection over wifi router

lost connection on phone

Can anyone give some advice please.
I just got my smartwatch 2 SW2 (s/w 3.25.11) and have a Xperia Z (4.3 JB)
I connected the phone and watch fine but found that my phone has no internet connection via the wifi. On
turning off Bluetooth and disconnecting the watch I have the internet back again.
If I leave the phone on 3g I get internet access even with the watch connected.
I downloaded the Sony Update Service program and installed the lates firmware, I deleted and re downloaded
the Smartwatch 2 app from the play store and still the same. Deleted all the add on apps I downloaded, left the ones
Sony recommends.
But on wifi I lose internet connection
I must be missing something. works fine on 3g but not on wifi...
Anyone able to help me?

Perform a factory reset of your phone, it's clearly messed up somewhere (bluetooth or wifi).

Does it happen with other bluetooth peripherals?

Good point something I never tried.
Connected headset and all works fine wifi connected and headset and I have the internet.
So its down to the watch?
It did work at the start as I downloaded the gmail and other apps the watch suggested. Then later
I noticed it was not downloading from the play store.
@themissionimpossible
I did think of this but as a last resort as I dont really want to loose my data.

Headset connection uses a different bluetooth profile than the SW2, so it's non relevant.
You could also try to connect the SW2 to another smartphone and see if its wifi connection keeps working.
If that pairing runs nicely, then some problem is in your phone.
It's unlikely that a non-defective Sony SW2 doesn't work with a Sony smartphone...

Im going to clear everything then try again later.
And good point try on another phone I will pop out to see daughter
Thanks for the help

Ok checked on another phone and it worked fine. Came back and installed the
watch app from the play store, then added a few apps. All was fine and the internet worked
ok with the wifi.
Happy man
A few hours later noticed I had not received some emails on the watch OR phone... on
checking I had no connection.
Turning off Bluetooth to disconnect the watch and in seconds I had emails arrive on the
phone.
I am back to square one again

You could also try to disable any energy saving on the phone like stamina mode or eventually reset the SW2 and try the pairing again from scratch.
If your SW2 works with another smartphone the problem is probably in your phone, if nothing helps, as a last measure you should try to factory reset your phone.

Android hotspot not working for ipad 11.2.5

Hey, dear Experts.
I got big and hard question for u all. Thanks for any help.
I bought ipad 2017 9.7 and i thought i will use my android hotspot.
When i connect to this phone hotspot in Ipad.
(It connects and disconnects all the time in interval 3-8seconds) so no internet access at all.
I put another the same provider card in my phone, it didn't work too. I put my card on other device android and iphone , they worked.
So yeahz the problem is my phone, does anyone know, what that could be?

Same problem here; turn on your Bluetooth hotspot instead of your WiFi hotspot and connect your iPad via Bluetooth and it should work flawlessly
