Hi guys,
I have a Galaxy S3 running 4.1.1. I love it so far. the one problem that i am having is this. I recently bought a blueant Q2. it sync perfectly with the phone and everything works well.
My problem is that the native phone dialer requires a network connection. This is stupid since my dumb phones that i had for years did not. I would just say call X and it would call X.
Is there a app that doesn't require an internet connection to dial people that will start automatically when i touch my bluetooth headset?

Dragon assistant (There's a thread for it if not available in your country).
I tried dragon and it requires an internet connection to work even in drive mode.

What do you mean by older device? Like not android?
Androids run with Google, which of course uses internet so I dunno if there's an app that would allow it without internet connection. That's like having a AI on your phone.
all of my non-smart phones could do bluetooth dialing without connecting to the internet.
yet my smart phone has to connect to the internet. I don't want to blow my mobile data so i only use it when i have to.
i don't understand how a dumb non-smart phone can do something that a smart phone can't.
i have heard cyberon can do it i just didn't want to pay for an app.

Dunno how much data you have but I personnaly have 1GB and I never use all of it (and I never restrain myself from using the internet). Those voice search use next to nothing so you really don't have to worry about that.

I suppose (but that's only a guess) you would have saved a voice entry for all your contacts on your old phone, and the phone would match your query to one of the voice entries. And on Android, this kind of match is computed by a speech recognition server. That's what I would guess...

Hi, I have a tactical sail program to my windows phone, but this software can only use bluetooth to connect to the system on my boat. My boat only sends out signals over wifi. Is there a program for windows mobile that lets me receive wifi from the boat and trick the sailing software to belive it gets the information over bluetooth?
Martin
no lol. both two total different communication protocols..
I'm not sure you understood what I meant. Is there a program that can take wifi signals and send them as bluetooth inside the phone, to the sail program.
Martin
im pretty sure what u meant..
and i still say no. thats not possible
its like flying with a bicycle , without wings..
impossible
been searching a bit for bluetooth proxies...
looks worth while investigating it
google bluetooth proxy and check the web-pages which pop up.
i'm not a programmer but still i think u can get this idea to some developer to get it done.....
like my idea would be like get the data from wifi means from specific IPORT and redirect the data to a internal COM port...... u can add this port to a incoming PORT in ur application.....
but again im not sure how much this is possible in implementation

Anyone else having bluetooth problems or is this operator error?
I can switch bluetooth on, make my handset visible, pair with other devices and receive files from other handsets, however when I try to send anything, I can't connect to paired devices and bluetooth hangs meaning I have to switch my handset off and on.
I was using bluetooh last night and all was ok
but unlike my last phone c902 the bluetooth is on a timer then turns off visibility
Working fine for me. Paired up my bluetooth headset and will still be working hours later even if I haven't interacted between them.
It's strange, devices show as paired but not connected and I can't make them connect.
Have been able to use BT for file transfer between my Desire and laptop and HD2. Also connected to my Plantronics BT headset. I think you need to have an appropriate BT driver for some devices like BT keyboards.
I too am having minor issues.
The wife's hands free kit (Parrot CK3000 evo) in the car supports voice dialling by sending contacts to it and then recording a tag which is associated with the contact. This way the kit can do the voice dialling for handsets that don't support it.
For some reason the Desire refuses to send contacts to the hands free kit claiming it doesn't support the correct bluetooth profiles. This obviously isn't the case as all the other phones we have tried work perfectly with the CK3000.
Only a minor issue, as in my car which has the CK3300 everything works fine (including syncing the phonebook to the car kit). It's more of a problem for the wife though, as she wants to upgrade to the Desire on Saturday when her contract is up for renewal but at the minute won't be able to voice dial from the car.
Dae.
Strange. I'll try connceting to my laptop later.
I too am having difficulty sending files over bluetooth. I can accept files fine, from any source, yet cannot send from my HTC Desire. First the notification says complete, but 0 files sent. Then going inside it shows it has failed. And then clicking it and retrying shows Unknown file. What's going on??
Tried sending to two mobile phones, and a Windows 7 laptop. Easily works the other way around. Also, sometimes I can't turn my bluetooth off properly, it just crashes the chip while turning off and can't turn it on or off until I reboot. Thought it might be Advanced Task Killer, but tried the same thing immediately after a reboot and still can't send files. Any ideas?
still no closer to solving this, I think it may be going back tomorrow.
I'm also having problems...
I have the Parrot CK3200 LS-COLOR and it connects to the phone ok, or vice versa and then it always falls over when trying to sync the contacts... It shows my facebook profile pic and then it fails.
If I dial a contact through the phone, or receive a call, it comes out fine through the speakers.
So I'm wondering if it's something to do with the way the the desire handles contacts.
Sorry if there's been a resolution to this, I did search first
me to also having the same problems. spent 4 hours on google last night and still no closer.
Weird as it might sound, I had no issues connectiong to car stereo. But when I tried to pair it with friends mobile, SonyEricsson c902 - it crashed!
I was trying to send a picture file I have downloaded using bluetooth.
Also, can anyone tell me how to send a mp3 file I have downloaded off the internet to another mobile using bluetooth?
Thanks
Have you enabled FTP under Bluetooth advanced settings? I have no problem transfering files to and from PC or other mobile phone. Also make sure the device is dicroverable and paired.
I had a similar problem which I wrote to HTC about: I paired and connected the Desire with my bluetooth car head unit and it works fine for phone & audio, but it will not auto connect each time I get in the car and I have to go through the pairing process and enter a code each time. Voice dialling also doesn't work. My previous handset (Touch HD) connected automatically if the bluetooth was on so I don't think it's a problem with the head unit. Someone suggested it might be due to an old bluetooth protocol on the head unit (I'd like to avoid having to replace it if possible).
i managed to send a file to another htc desire today, last time i tried, i admit i didn't enable the ftp service, however I could not send via bluetooth to a nokia n96 but to be fair, my desire probably just didn't want anything to do with it . but on a serious note I cant seem to get it to send to my windows 7 x64 disto.

take that back .. apart from the N96 joke.. reason windows was not accepting was because avast anti virus was blocking it.

Is it possible to use the Desire as a CLIENT for a Bluetooth enabled DUN sharing device? I mean I want to use the Desire without signing up for an other internet contract SIM. Wifi is a solution, but when there is no wifi coverage, it would be really good if I could use my other phone's 3G connection, which can share it over Bluetooth DUN.
What I'm looking at is not tethering, but being a client for a tethered phone. Is there any ROM or app or trick which would make my Desire work as a DUN client?
i'm in the same requirement.
i have an Android tablet with wifi and bluetooth, and i've got a separate 3G/HSPDA phone.
so in the absence of wifi, i want to use my 3G phone (paired with my tablet via BT) and use the phone's connection to surf the web
it's like PC, connected to a phone via bluetooth and use the regular dialup networking to connect to the internet.
any links, reading materials (online) would be great.
thanks
Android + BT DUN
The same trouble: HTC Flyer Wifi cannot use any of BT DUN -enabled phones. It's very unexpected lack in Android.
Same trouble. Galaxy S Android 2.3 cannot use BT Dun enabled phones. Would be very usefull !!!! A lot of people around the web asking for a way to share his blackberry data plan through BT Dun to his Android phone
Me too, Nook Color running CM7 but can't surf anywhere like my iPod tethering through a Nokia phone

Can anyone confirm if you can in fact BT pair the Note 8 and the GS3? Unfortunately here in the US it doesn't look like we are getting the "phone" version of the Note 8.
WiFi tethering just chews up too much battery. I'd like to use BT and skim my mobile 4G connection from the GS3. Bandwidth should be fine as both devices have BT2.
Also, if there's a BT push app for text messages that anyone knows of, that would be a nifty find also.
Thanks in advance.

Did you try Open Garden? It uses bluetooth to connect and work just as good as wifi tethering. But only one issue when I used, it could not open youtube file for some reason. Dunno if they fixed.
for what you asked with S3, maybe have to wait other people to answer since I dont own the device.
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.
