[HELP]Tablet Talk Error 1

I just bought Tablet Talk for 2.50 and the only way it works is via WiFi. When I try to use Bluetooth, I get a connection error code 1. Please help me.

If no one knows or replies, you could try contacting the developer. They are meant to be very quick at replying.
Sorry I couldn't help you further.

Make sure. Both devices have their Bluetooth turned on then open tablet talk on both devices and make sure Bluetooth connection is selected. On the phone hit the red Bluetooth button and select enable discovery, on the tablet it should ask u to setup devices and find the phone via Bluetooth

What Rom are you on? You might want to test it using a different Rom. There were a couple of times out there in which Tablet Talk doesn't work.
I am currently running CodeAndroid and both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connections work.

I'm on the latest cm10 and I had it working the other day with blue tooth just fine but I can't get it to connect today. I was able to unchecked the option to share Internet over blue tooth before in bt settings but it won't unchecked now. The only consistent connection I have been able to maintain is off the hot spots on my galaxy nexus but it won't reconnect without me manually pushing the connect button. Has been inconsistent for sure but just attribute it to the romantic and flashing nightly.

I ran into this this weekend... I ended up UNpairing through the the bluetooth settings in the ROM itself (not the app) clearing cache / data on tablet talk on both phone and n7, then repairing through the ROM and setting up through the app. Pain in the *** and took me a few tries but now it's working great.

Unpairing and pairing again works for me.
An alternative for the app but works a different way is TabletSMS by koush. I use it more often than tablet talk https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.tabletsms

I can vouch for TabletSMS. It works very well. I also have tablet talk but I use that for car connectivity by tethering it with my phone when in my car. The tether connect is flawless.

Tablet talk working fine for me.

I ran into the same issue
The only way it works for me is to press the connection button on both devices
I haven't found a way to trigger the connection from one device only (CM9 phone / stock JB tablet, bluetooth tethering on)

Email the developer, he helped me out. Awesome service.

For those having a problem with Tablet Talk relating to pairing/connecting your devices, here's a quick fix reply from the developer posted on Androidcentral.
I am the original creator and main developer of Tablet Talk. Someone emailed about this thread, which prompted me to make this account so that I can offer better support and obtain feedback.
First, mrgdr57: the app is for Android tablets and phones. Please send an email to [email protected] with the subject "Refund." Either send it from or provide the email address your order is under so that I can locate and take care of it right away!
Next, if you have not done so already, please install the update which was released very early this morning. It will help with the connection problems.
Regarding port: this setting only affects Wifi.
Wifi
If Wifi is not working, then please do the following:
Change the port to 8080 on both devices. It can be found under "Setup."
Under "Setup" on your tablet, enter your phone's IP address. Your phone's IP is displayed inside the phone app ("Phone IP: 192...."). Almost always the app finds your phone automatically; however, sometimes it is unable to. The tablet app keeps track of each network separately, so you should not have to do this every time.
Bluetooth
Sometime when Bluetooth is not working, a simple restart of either the tablet or phone fixes the problem. Once Bluetooth is setup, it should work without any problems. The previous version appeared to be having Bluetooth problems, and this morning's update (1.5.3) should help with these.
If Bluetooth has not yet worked for you, then uninstall and reinstall the app on both devices to get a fresh start.
When the app first opens, it detects whether you are using a phone or tablet. A popup appears asking you to confirm. Make sure that you confirm the correct device type. You can always change the device type in Tablet Talk's settings ("Misc" in phone, "Appearance & Behavior" in tablet). If you are texting from a Galaxy Player linked to a phone, then you will need to tell the app that the Galaxy Player is a "tablet." Also, if your phone is a Galaxy Note, the app might think it's a tablet, so be sure to identify it as a phone.
The standard solution for when Bluetooth setup is not working is to do the following:
Open Android's Bluetooth settings on both devices. If they are already paired, unpair your phone and tablet from each other.
Toggle Bluetooth off and then back on (both devices).
Pair your phone and tablet within Android's Bluetooth settings.
Phone: open Tablet Talk and press the connect button. If it asks you to enable discovery, press accept.
Tablet: open Tablet Talk and press the connect button.
Quick & Automatic Connecting
Once Tablet Talk is setup, connecting can be made much quicker and automatic for future use. Check out the Automatic Settings on both devices for the options. There is also a widget. You can tailor it to your specific needs.
Also, whenever you connect, the app will sync any newly sent or received messages on your phone from the last use.
Example configuration: When you get home from work, simply enable Wifi or Bluetooth on your phone, and then turn on your tablet. The app will take care of the rest. Automatic settings:
Tablet: auto start when app opens. Auto enable Wifi or Bluetooth.
Phone: auto start when Wifi or Bluetooth is enabled.
I will be subscribed to this thread and try to reply to new posts as often and quickly as possible. You can also email [email protected]. Feel free to send questions, feature requests, comments, etc. Feedback--good and bad--is always appreciated!

I managed to get it working by creating an ugly workaround with tasker: my tablet sends a connection request (via the autoremote plugin) to the phone who launches tablettalk (with auto-connect at startup turned on) and then the tablet launche tablettalk too with the same autoconnect option. As the two devices are trying to connect simultaneously, the connection is established correctly. That's the only way I found to get a connection (other than manually pressing 'connect' on both two devices)

contact names not consistent between phone and tablet.
This may sound strange but when I send a message on my phone and a tablet syncs, the contact name on the tablet does not match the contact name on the phone.The phone shows the name, but the tablet just shows the phone number and also when I have two people with the same last name in my contacts the phone shows the correct name but the tablet shows the other person's name, even though the phone's contact list contains completely different different information for each of the contacts

Bluetooth Issues (car and PC)

So, I have been having problems with the Bluetooth on my S4 since I got it, and so have some other people based on my research. I am now hearing scattered reports that whatever update AT&T put out (the apps on the SD card update) has solved the problem. I am wondering how hard it would be to look at the update, see what they did, and implement that change on my device somehow? Or, do you think it's heavily tied into other things that wouldn't make it easy? I really don't care about the apps on the SD card and such, but I really need my Bluetooth to work correctly pairing with my vehicle, and I'm getting annoyed that I have had to jump through the hoops I do currently to make it work when the phone is brand new.
As a side note, Windows 7 is telling me it can't find drivers for my phone as well when pairing to my PC via Bluetooth. This also isn't helpful. Possibly not related to the first problem, but has anyone else solved this? I searched around a little and found not much more than "me too" and "same here", but no one really solved how to get it connected properly.
EDIT: I found some information on this update. It looks like the Bluetooth stuff was definitely patched as I suspected. I am still wondering if we can somehow patch this into our phones.
Reference material:
The updater script is HERE which lists Bluetooth a number of times.
Single posts by user Aou posted HERE and HERE also list the Bluetooth changes.
I also found a copy of the update HERE.
So, can I pull the updated stuff from that file and install it on my phone? Or is it more complicated than that?

I use Ford Sync with mine. I have no problems at all.
You may try clearing cache and data on blue tooth. I heard that can solve your problem.
On your pc insall Kies...it will install drivers fir you. Then get rid of Kies...its useless.
Hope this helps

Thanks for the reply. Are you connecting both calls and media audio to your Ford?
A Google search for "Galaxy S4 Bluetooth issues" will show plenty of people having issues, so it's not just my device. Also, this problem has persisted since new, it has NEVER worked right. It has also persisted through multiple ROMs and plenty of wipes and clears. It is an issue in the device itself, hence why the AT&T update fixed it for other people.
Also, not only are the drivers available separate from Kies on Samsung's website (which I use on my laptop), but I do have Kies installed on this PC and it still doesn't work.

Using both media and phone with hyundai premium audio. Syncs contacts and works perfectly every time. Not a single problem with this phone.

I'm not trying to argue that there is something wrong, but there is obviously something different between various manufacturers of vehicles. Here are some threads discussing the problem:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-s4/278206-galaxy-s4-bluetooth.html
http://forums.androidcentral.com/ve...96510-bluetooth-paired-but-not-connected.html
http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-s4/290639-bluetooth-will-not-auto-connect-car.html
In one of the threads I have read (can't remember which one), at least two people who previously had the problem said the OTA update from AT&T fixed it. That's all I am getting at. I am wondering what it was in the OTA update that fixed it since obviously I am one of the unlucky people who are experiencing this problem.

Maybe I missed it but what's the issue exactly?
Something that's bugging me, and might be your issue also, is when I'm in the car the phone doesn't automatically connect to my car.
I have a 2012 Jeep Liberty equipped with uConnect and everytime I turn my phone on I have to manually select uConnect in the Bluetooth devices list to pair my device. I don't have to reset it up and pair it from scratch but it doesn't automatically pair for some reason.

Yes. Everything works. I just had to delete my S3 from Sync.

This is similar to mine, but not the same. I guess I wasn't very specific, but then again, I'm not trying to solve the problem any other way than seeing the feasibility of porting whatever fix was in the OTA update because I don't believe anything else will fix it. I also contacted the engineering department of the vehicle device and they told me it's a known issue isolated to the Galaxy S4.
Anyway, my phone will reconnect to call audio, but gets stuck connection to media audio and will never connect unless I toggle Bluetooth off then on again. Or, it will connect to call audio, but not re-select the media audio. Everytime I turn off Bluetooth or the car, I have to either re-pair, or toggle it to get it to fully connect. Once it does connect, it's fine.
For what it's worth, the Bluetooth Auto Connect app in the market might fix your issue of automatically re-connecting. Check it out HERE. I had played with this app hoping it would solve my issue by telling it to automatically connect both calling and media audio, but it didn't. Nor did A2DP volume which does similar things. This one can also automatically start an application on connection (for instance I was having it auto start Pandora for me). It also has a feature that can capture your GPS location at the time of disconnect. This means you could get out of your car in a huge parking lot, it captures the GPS location, and you can navigate back to the car later easily. That one can be seen HERE.
Check them out, might fix your problem.

Yes. Multiple times. Again, Google search "Galaxy S4 Windows 7 drivers" will give you a whole list of people who have the same problem...

Strange thing to note. The phone pairs with my laptop running Windows 7 much better. I can play audio through the laptop from the phone, transfer files, etc. The desktop PC displays a message that says the device "needs troubleshooting". When I do that, it says the driver cannon be found, yet it works ok with my laptop. Very strange.

I think I got a fix for you here.

This I can recommend a fix for. I had the same issue with my Clarion aftermarket deck (issue did not occur on my previous Android devices). Google Play Store has an APK called "Bluetooth Auto Connect". This runs as a background process and will fix the issue for you.

Still wondering about extracting whatever they did to the Bluetooth...

Thanks everyone about the recommendation for Bluetooth Auto Connect. Hasn't failed since I installed it, way more convenient now.
Thank you!

Tablet Talk cuts off internet to other apps?

Hi,
I'm using Tablet Talk on Nexus 4 phone and Nexus 7 tablet installed in my car dash. The application works totally fine except for one strange issue: it appears to cut off internet to other apps installed on Nexus 7. Internet connection is shared by the phone via Bluetooth.
When Tablet Talk is connected, Youtube shows connection error, Waze navigation cannot reach its servers most of the time (though not always), Chrome browser either works extremely slowly (loading google search results for about 3 minutes) or don't work at all.
Everything works fine as soon as I disconnect Tablet Talk.
I was unable to google similar issue reported by other Tablet Talk users, so maybe I'm doing anything wrong?
Any ideas are most welcome.

If you are using Bluetooth to connect to tablet talk, and to share internet.... Then there is your problem, I think u can only have one device connected with Bluetooth at a time.
Try setting phone as mobile hotspot, and connect the nexus 7 via WiFi. Then use tablet talk in WiFi mode. And forget about Bluetooth and its narrow bandwidth.

I would agree if there is no internet at all - either Tablet Talk or internet. However, there are two things that make me believe that there's another reason: first, there is internet connection, yet somewhat flaky, in Waze navigation app, and some others, while Tablet Talk is connected. Next, Tablet Talk uses the same bluetooth connection - no extra [virtual] device or BT profile appears in the bluetooth connection list, as far as I remember.
I've asked the Tablet Talk developer about this; still awaiting their response.

Yup its still one connection but 2 data feeds, therefore 2 connections through Bluetooth. it makes sense to me this issue. That's why I never ran tablet talk this way. I know Bluetooth don't have much bandwidth.
I would be curious of the answer too. I use tablet talk just not in this configuration.

Sure, but yet it's always been sufficient for any youtube video and other tasks. I don't believe that Tablet Talk in standby mode consumes all the bandwidth... but who knows, maybe you're right. I'll try to find a tool that'll allow to monitor BT bandwidth/load, if it's technically possible. Thanks for the clue!

Bluetooth, easy shift between 2 phones?

Hi. Have a JY mtcb head unit with Maylaysk rom and 4.4.4 android. Find it tricky to shift between the 2 phones i have conected in the bluetooth app on my head unit. First i have to mark the active phone and then deselect it. Then i can mark the next phone in the list and connest it. Is there a easy way to do this with just a short cut or a another app that will do it more easy?

I do not know a shortcut but maybe I can do even better
Buy an android compatible Bluetooth dongle and pair both (cost me $4 incl shipping from China), I did that with my OBD device and phone but see know issue why 2 phones shouldn`t work as well.
The only thing that could be a (small) problem is which it would dial a number with.
Just a suggestion of course

Tasker?

What functions would you be using in Tasker?

I was just thinking that Tasker could possibly be used to automate bluetooth switching. I'm not sure HOW to set it up though.

I use the app Trigger. I use it to turn on my phone's Hotspot when it connects to my headunits Bluetooth connection and when it disconnects it turns off the Hotspot and turn on my wifi. It is very easy to use compared to Tasker. Tasker is good as it has a lot of functions but I don't quite know how to use it yet.

I was using Tasker for a few of these things, but actually the Smart Connect on my phone does all these things well.
I think what this thread is about though, which I would like to know two is that if you have two phones connected to the head unit, it connects to one, but even though the other is stored as a bluetooth connection it will only autoconnect to the last connected phone. This means you have to manually hit the connect on the head unit for it to work if you weren't the last one in the car!
It would be better if you could tell the head unit to have a "preference" to connect to phone A over phone B, but if phone A isn't present, then connect to phone B.

Well the headunit is very limited, but if you are very knowledgeable in Tasker you set something like that up on the headunit. I think trigger can let it do the same thing by using restrictions,

Pixel 2 XL will not connect to Gear S3 and bluetooth headphones at the same time

As the title states, my phone will not connect to both devices simultaneously. If I connect one, the other one will disconnect immediately. I don't remember having this issue with previous phones. Any ideas on what is the issue and how to fix it?

Sorry, not sure what to say here. My S3 connects perfectly, and stays connected when another Bluetooth device connects to the phone. Do you mean, it's actually no longer connected or paired? My phone shows 'connected' to only my car for example but not the S3. However, it IS still connected to the watch. I still get notifications and such. You may try unpairing it, otherwise resetting the watch. Sorry I'm not much help here.

Maybe you're right and I'm just overreacting. I was going off of what the phone said. It says connected to one device, but does not say connected under the other. Maybe the watch is still connected and I just need to chill out. I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks for grounding me.

My 6P on Oreo has no trouble staying connected to my car ('17 Durango) and my Gear S3 at the same time. Works flawlessly. Now, if my P2XL would actually ship I'd be able to confirm whether that hardware combo works as well...

I thought the same thing the first time I connected my phone to my car. I even rebooted my phone. When I did, my watch buzzed that it had been disconnected, which I forgot it does when the connection is lost. It wasn't doing that when connecting to my car. I also confirmed when I received a text and my wrist buzzed. Should be all good!
