[Completed] Mobile App Concept, Bluetooth Router Idea. Technical advice required.... - XDA Assist

Good Afternoon,
Im looking for a solution for an idea I have for an app and was wondering if anyone could assist from a technical perspective.
Basically im in the very early stages of developing a app which is for drinks and food discount codes for bars/restaurants. What im looking for is some form of router whereby the user of the app walks into the venue and connects to router (Bluetooth for example) then opens the app and there is a unique code generated for the particular bar and time. The code would then appear on the app and could be used for the discount.
I was thinking about a simple WiFi router but then you would have to save each WiFi password on your phone and would undoubtedly be complicated.
I've seen some Bluetooth routers but im unsure how this would work.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
James

Thanks in advance.
Hello Bharu, its good to see you having interest in App development. My suggestion to you is to ask this question at "stackoverflow" its a code referred question and answer based website. With plenty of users (pro's) and code types Android is one the main categories. You will defiantly receive an answer in a few minutes with guidance.

[Completed] [Q] Timepin with Tasker/Llama

This is probably really easy but tasker has always confused me and I've never used llama.
What I want to do which I hope is easy. Disable TimePin when I'm connected to my home network and re-enable it when it disconnects.
If anyone can help I'd be really grateful.

[Q] Android Remote Statistics App

Hey guys,
Forgive me if this is not the proper forum location to post this.
I have a question about an android system information app. My company is looking at using a very locked down smartphone in the retail stores as a SIP phone over WiFi. Essentially these phones would only be good for wifi calling through our network. I have been able to lock the phone down pretty good but I am having a little bit of trouble finding an app that will monitor the phone and report statistics back to us (through a web browser or email). Basically we would need to remotely check the usage/stats but we don't really want to use something like airdroid or teamviewer as this would disrupt the users usage. Any ideas on a good app? I haven't been able to find anything and I know you guys are digital wizards..
Thanks in advance guys!

[Completed] having problems rooting Android double din radio...need help!

Hey guys, I'm not new to rooting as I've done many devices, but I have to say the project I have now seems impossible. ...
I have and Android double din radio that I purchased of of Ebay, it says it is running android 4.4.4 jelly bean...It has so many restrictions, I can't access bluetooth settings/but will connect to any cellphone with no problems. ..and the USB access is very limited as the manufacturer seems to have hidden these features to make more profit on THERE OWN OBDII sacanners and tv box etc that you HAVE to purchase from them ONLY!, or those features WILL NOT work....
I love the fact that I have android in my car but this limited access is very annoying.
ANY help would be appropriated, thanx!

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
We cannot provide technical support nor can other members reply to your posts here on XDA Assist and it's difficult to direct you towards a specific thread since you give so few details about your device but I suggest that you ask your question with all relevant details in the dedicated "Android Auto" Forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/android-auto/, maybe in the "Android Head Units" subforum there at http://forum.xda-developers.com/android-auto/android-head-units where members familiar with your device might be able to advise you.
Good luck!
got it!
I did end up rooting it!...I used (Root Checker) and I am officially rooted...
But, I am still having a problem finding away to access the Bluetooth menu in settings/wireless & networks....
Any ideas?

Hello again.
On a traditional Android device, Bluetooth is typically an entry under "Network Connections" or a similarly named menu. As mentioned earlier we cannot provide technical support here on XDA Assist, but if you ask in the forums mentioned earlier, another member may be able to assist you.
Once again, good luck!

[Completed] Android + Kiosk App

Hi Guys,
I'm looking for help and this is the last place i'm having hopes for..
I have native android app that was developed by me. and my company wants to put this app in tablet so then the app has true kiosk mode, loading on the start, auto-updating (somehow?? today I'm checking it with api call and forcing users to go to google play)
The current kiosk mode i have - isn't working that well across all the devices, Some tablets like samsung 8 inchers will cause app to crash on requesting device administrator. Some tablets don't allow me to disable turn the screen back on if user clicked on the button.
We would also like to add some AdMob and AdColony SDK's there but now the issue is that if either of this networks has a link to google play or just a web link it fires intent and kicking chrome instead which knocks my app to the background in some devices.
What do we need to do from here? I mean what do we need to find to get it done? We would be buying some specific tablets for that too so I guess we can modify ROM if that is required but I'm really don't have any clue where to start here.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!
