I was wondering if anyone has tried attaching (tethering?) multiple BT devices to the Xoom at the same time. For example, having a keyboard connected while tethered to a phone. Although I know that this is not an iPhone forum I was wondering if I could connect the Xoom to the iPhone via BT and still use a hands-free set (e.g. while driving I want to use the Xoom as navigator and have traffic shown).
Thanks guys!
Multiple bluetooth devices connected simultaneously is possible. I was on about an hour long train the other day, and the whole time, I had my Xoom (not activated, no data) bluetooth tethered to my Droid while also connected to my bluetooth headphones to listen to music. Worked great!
Thanks, I'll try it on my way home tonight! Let's hope that Steve Jobs allows the iPhone to share the BT connection

Greetings all,
Just got the new TP2 through Verizon. Love the phone so far but decided to do away with Touch Flow and go back to old Windows interface.
Anyway, I have an XLink BT Gateway box at the house - routes cell phone through house phone landlines. Nice trick.
On my old Moto Q 9c, I could have my BT headset and XLink paired simultaneously. So, if the cell phone rang, I could answer the cell phone, BT headset, or house landline (via XLink).
With the TP2, I found that only one BT device can be active at a time. If the BT headset is turned on first, the XLink just blinks - indicating that it cannot connect to the TP2. If the XLink is activated first, the BT headset will not engage.
Suggestions?
Thanks
I have a bluetooth mouse and have connected with my Iconia tab a100 already, but it doesn't work. There is no cursor on the screen. Also, there's no use moving the mouse.
I have tried the same mouse on another android cellphone and it worked.
How can I make it work on a100?
And have anyone tried it?
I have succeeded connecting a Logitech Dinovo keyboard /mousepad to my A100.
You have to pair the tablet to the mouse, then enter a code to connect them together.
I was able to pair my folding bluetooth keyboard (stowaway) w/ it. My problem is i use my tablets on my dashboard as my music source (also navigation, etc.) and it doesn't seem to find the bluetooth audio in my car - won't even show up in pairing mode.
If i can't get this to work, I'm definitely taking it back and getting a 7" Toshiba Thrive or the Galaxy Tab Plus when they come out.
My car tells me that my A100 has connected successfully...
I use a Sync system in a 2011 Ford Focus and use it for navigation and music and it pairs and works perfectly.
I used a bluetooth keyboard successfully but can't use the mouse, did anyone use the bluetooth mouse on a100 successfully?
Yes I do use a Logitech 470 that I have paired through Astro bluetooth from the Market and then the regular device's bluetooth program.

My tab connects fine to my Bluetooth keyboard for the HP touchpad.
Yes.. I was able to pair with my LG Esteem and send files via bluetooth...
tether?
Has anyone found a solution (3rd party spftwate or otherwise) that works for Bluetooth tethering to an iPhone? 3GS OS5 jailbroken and soon to be rooted iconia a100.
I use NC tether from the market to tether with my iPhone 4.

After seeing rEVOLVE's post, I remembered an old Stowaway Think Outside folding Bluetooth keyboard. It connected and seems to work fine with the A100, although I can't figure out how to use it for any special commands, such as Home, End, or such functions as going directly to the Calendar, Contacts, etc. Any help there would be appreciated.
It will not connect to my car stereo (Kenwood KDC-695).
With my phone (T-Mobile G2x), it will pair but do nothing else. (The phone reports, "paired but not connected" and won't connect.)
Other than the keyboard, I haven't found any other use for the Bluetooth on this device. I'm wondering if rooting it or some other program would help.
I have used it to connect to bluetooth speakers, headset, car, and tethering. I do not have a bluetooth keyboard to test.
Bluetooth cuts in and out when connected to 2 devices (car's "phone" and "media")
I have a GSM Galaxy Nexus on stock Jellybean, and bluetooth streaming works great in my car (Chevy Sonic) until I also connect the "phone" connection. When it's connected, the music cuts in and out constantly. Phone calls seem to do the same thing if "media" is connected.
If I kill 1 connection, the other works great. Is this a Galaxy Nexus problem or Jellybean? I've tried stock, franco's, trinity, etc kernels but I'm guessing this won't matter (since the source was JUST released for JB).
Does anyone else pair to multiple BT devices simultaneously? Do you have issues?
I just came from an iPhone 4S, and it paired nicely with both connections without them cutting out. I hope this is something I can get working because I use both functions all the time.
Thanks!
I connect to 2 devices in my truck and it actually seems to work better since installing Jelly Bean. On ICS I had a similar problem. My truck connects via the "phone" profile and I connect to a bluetooth adapter for the "media" profile. I could use either of them independently without a problem, but with both connected, my call quality was awful and my music would cut out periodically. I believe that the truck "phone" profile was disconnecting and reconnecting every couple minutes as I would see the display on my truck indicate that a bluetooth device had just connected.
Since installing JB, that behavior seems to have stopped. I can't say for sure as I haven't driven very much yet since installing it, but early testing seems to indicate the problem has gone away. I know this doesn't help in your situation, but I did want to share my experience as it was similar to yours.
I just started going back to the gym and I use Bluetooth headphones with my note 2. I'm debating on buying a Bluetooth heart rate monitor to use with a couple of workout apps to track my calories being burned.
I'm wondering.. will I be able to connect both devices simultaneously?
In the car I connect to my head unit, cobra iradar and obd2 scanner. So I don't think you should Have a problem

how....as far as i know....one connection can be made at a time; as soon as you connect one BT, the other got disconnected.
just like wifi and hotpost; your phone either is on wife mode to get internet connection from other or your phone is on wifi-hotpost mode to provide internet connection to others

You can simultaneously connect and use the devices only if they use different BT Profiles. For example, I routinely connect the Note2 to my car's BT receiver for phone calls (Hands-Free Profile, HFP), MP3 playback to the car's speakers (A2DP), and navigation using an external GPS device (Serial Port Profile, SPP). Works fine.
I just purchased the Galaxy Watch Active and have a few questions about Bluetooth & wireless connectivity. I hope someone can share their experience with me.
1. Should the watch always be connected to Bluetooth on my phone? Or, only connected when I want to sync to S-Health, install a new watch face, et. al.?
2. If I desire to connect my phone to another Bluetooth device (Ticpods, speaker), must I disconnect from the watch?
Q: Is this standard practice?
--- Yes, I can connect 2 devices to my Note9 but curious if there are any connectivity implications with both devices connected.
(I am thinking in terms of Fitbit Versa where phone Bluetooth is not connected(from what I could tell) even though FB Versa shows as choice in Bluetooth devices.)
3. I have not set up wireless yet and will do so this evening when home.
Q: What are the different use cases for Wireless vs. Bluetooth on the SWA?
FYI - I am an XDA old-timer but a newbie to this watch. Your feedback is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

1 Always connected to BT so you get notifications etc. 24/7
2 No need to disconnect when using other devices.
3 A lot ppl don't seem to like WiFi and call it useless. I am not too sure. IDK Can't do much without BT.
