Bluetooth Connection on ANdroid .. Sharing Internet Connection ?

i try to get the same feature like on my samsung m1 360
i started bluetooth and on my notebook it connected with the phone sharing the internet connection from the phone.
now i use a htc magic 32 B with 2.1 rom and i cant connect that way
i can only use sound sharing or whatever .. i guess the drivers are missing ?
any suggestions ?

Look at these...
Hey there. I'm not a know-it-all regarding what you're looking for, but I did find a few items of interest:
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/

I personal use the WiFi Tether on the Developer Website (Root Required).
Never tried PDA net, but it might be an option.
Hope this helps.

I used PDAnet and it's working fine.

[Q] Computer internet connexion sharing via bluetooth with android device...

Hi,
I'm a happy owner of both a Nexus One and a Nook Color, both rooted and running CyanogenMod.
I got a full data access on my mobile so I can tether its connexion to either any laptop (using wifi or usb tethering) or the Nook Color (using wifi or bluetooth PAN). That's working quite fine even though this requires to get a good data signal strength covering the place you are.
Unfortunatelly, at work, I almost got no data access.
My laptop got full internet access via its LAN Ethernet adapter and has both wifi and bluetooth available.
My question is simple : How can I share my laptop's internet access with my android devices using bluetooth ?
PS : Even if I can only pair one of the two android devices with my laptop at a time, that still would rock !
Thanks !

Bump... I have the same question and exactly the same situation...!!

I have same problem here. My computer get full access internet via LAN, and just only have bluetooth connection (no wifi). How i can share it? symbian can share bluetooth internet connection with apps called GNUBOX. How about Android? Anyone can help??

I think that you can't use internet over bluetooth,
maybe you can try using internet over usb cable - it is supported in newer android updates

Can I use desktop's internet connection on my phone?

Today I read an article about "How To Use Laptop’s Internet on Android Phone via Wifi". Hotspot app is needed to do this. My question is: does it need to root the phone? I have a desktop (Win7), not laptop. If I use portable WiFi device/ adapter, will it work to do this?
If the tutorial is available here, please share me.....
Thank you in advance!

See, if you are using desktop.. You need wifi adapter..
But, I recommend you to get Wifi Router instead of adapter as you'll need to keep PC on in order to use internet on mobile and there is price difference of only Rs 400-500 in adapter and router..
Setting up router is easy while setting up internet connection on adapter is little bit tricky. You get some instruction manual with the adapter to help you out..
If you need any further help, reply here..

[Q] WiFi Hotspot

Dear All,
I am currently using a Windows Vista based laptop with a Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN wireless card in it with updated drivers. Now whenever I try connect using connectify to make a wireless hotspot it does create a hotspot, but on my android handset I can't find any wifi network in range. Pls suggest a way to reverse tether my phone with my pc without the need of rooting the phone. I am currently using a Android v4.0.I am using internet through a USB Data Card.
Thanx All.

your going to have to root it to be able to tether pc to your phone or phone to pc.

use "pda net+" for usb theathring wifi hot spot as wel as bluetooth theathring.

There's another app called FoxFi that claims to handle wifi tether w/out root. But I've never used it ,and i'm not sure if it works to tether in either direction, but worth a quick look .... (can't post a link cuz i'm not >10 posts yet)

[Q] Reverse tethering Bluetooth

Hi
I just want to know can I reverse tether my Xperia L through Bluetooth.
My PC is connected to internet via cable and it doesn't have WiFi.
Also I cannot connect my phone via cable. However, I have a plug and play bluetooth dongle that I can easily attach to it
I searched over the internet but couldn't find anything
Please help

Hi,
it's more easy if you have a wifi pc card to make it share using Ad Hoc...
if your pc has it, turn it on a adHOC that enables to share your connection via wifi to your xperia.
or try the hard way using bluetooth.. (lol)

Thanks for the suggestion
But I've already mentioned that I DO NOT have WiFi
And I can't buy a WiFi card
I've already seen the link you just gave and it doesn't work
I wonder if there's any other way
Just like the Reverse tethering app
