Hi,
Since a few days im a proud owner of a HTC desire.
On this device i am trying to connect my bluetooth OBD2 car diagnose device.
Unfortunatly i cannot get it working.
What i did was search for the device in bluetooth settings, pair it with the phone (The bluetooth device says paired, but disconnected), and change the settings in the obd2 app to make sure it uses the device ( i tried torque and obd2 reader). This will result in the following bluetooth error :
1270932653682 **** OBD Comms thread starting ****
1270932653682 **** Connecting to OBD via bluetooth ****
1270932653686 **** Connecting to OBD via bluetooth (1) ****
1270932654262 *** EXCEPTION:Service discovery failed ***
Service discovery failed android.bluetooth.BluetoothSocket$SdpHelper.doSdp(BluetoothSocket.java:377)_ android.bluetooth.BluetoothSocket.connect(BluetoothSocket.java:201)_ org.prowl.torquefree.comms.OBD$CommsThread.run(OBD.java:305)_
The previous phone i had was a touch pro 2 running Windows mobile. I managed to use the diagnose device on this phone for a while without any issues.
What i am thinking is that i maybe miss out on a step on the android phone to get it working. This is because on my windows mobile phone i had to setup a serial port first. Could this be different in android, or am i doing something wrong?
Any help is welcome!
Anyone with ideas ?
Thanks alot!
do you need the software on the phone to run the obd2 connector? do they have that software available or is it just for data logging? the connection is there but there is no software calling for the data connection.
good luck. hopefully. the manufacturer developes or ports their software to Android
Yes you need to software to communicate with the obd2 bluetooth connector. You pair it with the phone, and then need to software to get the info.
There are currently 2 apps available, but they both fail to work. I thought it could maybe be a bug in android, but i can't seem to find any info about it.
I also expected i could have made a mistake while pairing the device to the phone, since i am only using android for a few weeks
it should be working, the only thing is that further down the debug the bluetooth stack blows up inside a native method

I'm itching to see what the UUIDs your bluetooth device advertises
Hey ! we have spoken through email
Im trying to see how i can get the UUID of the device. I tried it with my ubuntu laptop, but couldnt find it yet.
Im using the same bluetooth device as listed on the torque website, the one with the blue sticker on the side
I have bonded the adapter with my laptop. Then setup Serial port.
I did not manage to get the UUID yet, is the info below helpfull?

Yep thats fine on the bluetooth info, this is looking like a bug in androids handling of bluetooth, and it's a weird one at that.
Is your firmware a completley stock ROM for the phone? You haven't put a modified ROM onto it?
Well good to hear you at least know what is wrong.
My rom is a stock rom. This is the info from settings, software information :
Firmwareversion :
2.1-update1

The phone's model number is HTC Desire A8181
Do you know what the bug consists of?
Thanks again !
Sorry, I haven't replied earlier, been busy for a few days.
It's looking very much like a bluetooth stack issue on the HTC Desire. Googling a reveals a couple more grumblings with the desires bluetooth stack but nothing concrete. Unfortunately I haven't got one of the devices directly to play with to verify my assumption, so fixing it is probably not going to happen (if I am able to work around the bug at all!).
Unfortunately I'll have to say you're out of luck /for the moment/, if one of my friends aquires one (or I can reproduce it on my Nexus one if/whenever Google/Brightpoint decide to deliver it!) then I will try to reproduce the fault and to get it to work for you (from my point of view I want this to work with as many devices/vehicles as possible!!)

Is there anything i can help you with? as i also really like to use this app.
If you provide me with things to check, gather or investigate i would be happy to do so!

Hi
Just to let you know I managed to sort a workaround out for torque with regards to the bluetooth problems and it is now connecting fine

I've been a android user since Sept '09 (G1/Dream) and now I recently got my X10.
I've had a Nokia 770,800, and now N810. I used a application called 'Carman' which would read a OBD2 Bluetooth unit which was connected in my car. I would simply plug it into the port under my steering wheel and it would show up easily on my Nokia. The software worked great.
There is code available, and the website for carman is: http://openbossa.indt.org/carman/
The bluetooth unit I got was this one: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.16921 (although mine is orange, got mine back in Dec '08)
It would be great to see this being ported over to Android. Hopefully this is helpful!
how many cm is the Height of this bt?

Hello!
Are there any known issues with Android and bt devices? I can't seem to get my desire and a bt obd reader to pair, the phone doesn't even see it.

yeah i've been searching for awhile and apparently HTC broke the stock bluetooth stack with some kind of proprietary settings that makes most advanced functions not work (HID, SPP, etc) it appears if you use a rom thats not sense based (like cyanogenmod) then the profiles work
Has anyone successfully paired this with the Note 10.1? When trying to pair, the Note asks for a password/pin which I cannot find anywhere. Any suggestions?

Try 0000 as the password.

Hi. Thanks for the post. Tried 0000, 1234, 9999 all to no avail. Any other suggestions?

Only a process of elimination. Ensure that tablet can successfully connect to some other bluetooth device and that the mouse can connect to some other device such as a PC or notebook via bluetooth. Want to exclude any hardware fault.
You could also contact Canon support for their suggestions.
It does look like an interesting device. Good luck.

I guess here is some problem with pairing. I have the same issue with my Nexus 7 32GB (official Android 4.3).
In my case, the mouse needs no pairing code with Win 7 or Debian Jessie (and works with both systems), but Nexus with Android 4.3 asks for the pairing code. Another BT mouse (Rapoo model 6200) works nicely with all systems (Win 7, Debian and Android) without any pairing code.
New tests with another devices, Sep-06:
Cannot be paired with Nexus S, both official Android 4.1.2 or CM or with Lenovo A660 (pudil's ROM based on original Android 4.0.4 version 025).
Apologies for opening this old (ancient) thread, but I'm seeing this behaviour on Windows now as well; up-to-date devices ask for a pin and refuse to connect, while older do not ask and connect instantly.
Did anyone have this on Windows, or fix the issue somehow?
Hi,
I've got yesterday sw2. It is really cool, but sometimes i have problem with bluetooth. Sw2 seems to be connected with phone, but when i start some app, it is loading, but this app don't start. I must restart my watch and then everything works fine, but then when i don't use it for a while it didn't want start against. I am using nexus 5 with custom rom. Where can be a problem?
I am having the same problem. Also a nexus 5 with custom rom. Maybe this is a nexus issue?
Which kernel are you running on the phone.
I am using latest Droidkang rom with stock cm kernel.
Some times I will clear phone's RAM to temporarily resolve this problem.
Any ideas anyone? I have the same problem on stock 4.3 on HTC One Max. It drives me nuts ^^
Stock Nexus 5 has no such issue so I'd start with the kernel /ROM bluetooth compatability. Certain apps seem to lose their state occasionally I've noticed. They generally just need to be closed and reopened though. No reboot has been necessary.

Difficulty with MediaTek devices
I have a Wiko Stairway, which is built on MediaTek platform. Pairing is difficult but possible. I don't know whose fault it is, MediaTek or Sony or both?
Still I find it awkard that I have to install 10MB of Sony software just to establish a faulty connection.
My workaround:
Pair the devices without installing the Smart Connect suite
Install Smart Connect and restart watch
Start Smart Connect and wait a while. It should now find the watch and prompt for installing the add-on
Turn bluetooth off and on on both devices
It should now work
Problem is that every now and then the connection is dropped and you may have to toggle bluetooth on either watch or phone or both. Even sometimes a restart is required.
A work around might be to see if force closing the app 'bluetooth share' temporary resolves the issue. If that's the case you could set up a tasker task to kill bluetooth share every 8 hours or so. You might need a plug-in to properly kill bluetooth share with tasker.
In the past few days, I was experiencing issues while connecting Bluetooth on my Windows 10 device and while looking for solutions I come across users going through the same issue. If you are also going through the same problem, the following the below-given solutions may help you to fix the issue:
Use Hardware and Device Troubleshooter
Modify Power Saving Settings
Enable Bluetooth Audio Service
Updating Bluetooth Device Driver
Run Bluetooth Troubleshooter

That's quite helpful. But in my case it was totally different. I installed win 10 on my PC from an iso (got it directly from windows website and not from manufacturer) and the Bluetooth just stopped working... In the previous version, i.e. win 7 there used to be keyboard shortcuts for enabling it. Installing a new iso deleted them all. so, the only way is to switch on Bluetooth from TPFC (ThinkPadFanControl) and it only works that way... LOL
Hi.
I've successfully ported a Marshmallow rom to an old tablet that was running Kitkat.
Almost everything works ok, but I can't pair a bluetooth keyboard I need to use.
The tablet can pair with other android devices, and can send and receive files.
Also, the keyboard works with any other device and with the tablet doing a downgrade.
When I try to connect the keyboard to the ported tablet it's detected and shows the pin alert, I type the pin on the keyboard and then nothing else happens.
I've dumped the bluetooth logs and I've seen that, in the ported tablet, the log stopped when waiting for the pin. In any other device the log continues showing the complete connection.
I've tried to replace any bluetooth library form stock to ported rom, individually and by sets, and can't get it better (ever worst)
So please, can anyone help me? Where should I look for making it work?
Thanks and best regards.
PS: I've attached the HCI log files: the one named huawei is for the well pairing device, and the other is the problematic pairing with the ported tablet.
