Is tehre any way to AUTO accept bluetooth file transfers from paired devices at least? It's kind of annoying that the phone just can't get the file and let me deal with it later without my interaction.
I believe when you get the "Accept Transfer" window up there is a check box to allow that device to send without confirmation from that point on. I can't check because I believe I've already done it with my laptop and so I don't get a confirmation alert any more, the files just transfer. I've turned BT on and off on my laptop and restarted the phone and it still doesn't so I'm sure I got it to do that.
I believe there's not not on my desire anyway, it's just accept or deny and there is no option to "always allow" so I have no idfea how to maek the phone STOP ASKING
Well, I just deleted my phone from my laptops paired devices and vice versa on my phone.
I made the phone discoverable and sent a file from the laptop. First the laptop searched for it and found it, I selected it and a request to "pair" showed on the phone. I clicked Pair and confirmed on the laptop, a second confirmation popped up to show a pass key and confirm the same was showing on the other device, being my laptop. This was correct so I confirmed on the phone and again on my laptop.
Finally it tried to send the file and a third and final confirmation screen has popped up. It says "Device <laptop> has requested permission to access the files on this phone." There is an option to allow or not and above that is a check box that says "Always"
You're saying you don't get that "Always" check box? I'm looking right at it.
I am scratching my head, what in lords name, well I don't have one I will go through the pairing procedure again and see if I magically get one but I never seen it so far weirdly enough!
Redid the entire procedure and find no box anywhere what so ever

Very strange. I've paired two different laptops this way, one a Dell another a Toshiba, both with different blue-tooth stacks (Toshiba and Microsoft)
so st range I've now tried pairing it with another cell too, I STILL never get a darn checkbox. I do get a checkbox to always allow the computer to connect, so far I'm good, but when I send a file I still get the box to accept or deny the file and there is no check box at all in this dialog.

if you could post a screenshot
Got no problems with connect confirmation. Paired my Jabra BT car speaker and since then when I turn it on - it automaticly connects with Desire without askin' me for permission.
Just thought I would chime in, I have the check box and checked it but it still asks me everytime anyway lol
lol, now that's helpful, even if I get the darn box it won't help me!
I was looking for some auto accepting app but there seems to be none so guess I (+ a few more) are the only ones having this problem.
BT Stacks?
I'm using the Toshiba bluetooth stack which does give you the 'always' option, but my HTC Hero (Fresh ROM 2.XXX - the latest as of 06/06/2010) asks every time anyway.
At some point I believe I had my phone auto accepting the file transfers from my home comp, but I can't remember which BT stack I was using. As for the phone I had Sprint's Android 1.5 release.
Maybe its the combination, you guys mind letting me know what BT stack and phone OS combo you're using? It's pretty annoying to have to confirm each send, since I can't send folders (never been able to do that with my Hero). I can send 10 files at a time though (think thats a BT stack restriction, since nothing happens when I try to send 20 files)

Weird. I've basically given up on this one though some say it works some say it doesn't. Gotta pick you fights, I'll just accept manually for now.
I don't have this auto-accept checkbox either... why??
HTC Hero using Android 2.2 with FroydVillain 1.4.4
I can get mine to auto accept file transfer by sliding down to the notification view. It ask for the first file, I accept, during the file transfer, I slide down the notification view and then it auto accepts the following transfers. If I get out of the notification view, it starts to ask me again. Weird...
May be it works also for U
Mine always asks me to accept communication with another device (at this point I tick the 'Always accept' box), then asks me to confirm file transfer.
Every time after this I stil have to confirm the latter, as there is no tick box for that one!!
Is this the same as other people are experiencing?
BlueTooth File Transfer Confirmation
Folks, I think this is what your looking for, let me see if I get this right > you want to transfers files i.e.(FTP,OPP,BIP files, or Files, Objects,& Images) to a Laptop and you keep getting the message that says "File Transfer Confirmation". If this is the problem you can try this.
Start>Bluetooth (all programs) > Bluetooth setting>Options>security Tab>Custom Level> under Bluetooth Information Exchange>uncheck boxes> Display File Transfer, Display Object Push, & Display Image Transfer.
Now when you Bluetooth to your laptop the file transfer window will appear to show you that something is transferring but will no longer ask you to accept it.
Make sure that you have chosen what location you want the files going into, because if you want to change where it is being saved, than you have to go back into Bluetooth setting to do so.
Hope this helps. - Jason

Try this app on github.
Please visit my git repository(KYHSGeekCode)
And install the app if you have Root permission.
It works fine.

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 am on cm 10 and I have all Bluetooth on...
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
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

Newbie here, looking for buying my first MTCD. I've found this unit in many stores and eBay, but the only information I can find is that it's model is RK-A701. No MCU, no nothing. At $123,00 with free shipping looks like a good deal. What's your opinion. Has anyone bought one of these?
These are the more relevant specifications I've found:
Android 4.4
Resolution: 1024*600
Max External Memory: 16G
Cores:Quad Core
Display Size: 7"
Memory: 1GB DDR3
Storage: 16G iNAND
CPU Chip: RK3188, 1.6GHz
Doesn't seem to have WiFi
Found here, for example:
Newfrog
eBay (this is the cheapest)
Thanks in advance!
i have this ...
I have this unit, there is wifi, bluetooth is limited to the phone, for the price I find good
If it is Android 4.4 it is NOT MTCD...its and older MTCB device, also looks like it is 800x480 low res screen.
screen is 1024 x 600 , go youtube and search RK A701 ,have posted two video , sorry for my poor english ,am french ..
Better price here:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Android-4-4...ash=item46520ebb20:g:L6cAAOSwU-pXtWls&vxp=mtr
Just bought from this seller, and even if it do not have proper wifi, i do not see any reason why you should not be able to use tethering either thru usb or bluetooth.
Do this also as many other chinese manufacturers come pre-rooted?
Haha so next up is to demolish the dash in my old astra to make it dual din
This device is not pre-rooted and various parameters are not present, it lacks developper option (solved with a developer apk). Factory setting is protected by pass word (66668888). No button to activate the bluetooth paired for other attachments. Rooting can be obtained with kingroot latest version but after rooting, some apk no longer work .It managed by Luyuan apk.
I have not tested tethering .

Which apps will not load when rooted? do you know was reading about that the radio app was launched thru their weird "launcher" cant be that hard to make it into a service because i really like
apex launcher. Btw did the unit come with youtube?
See this video for response .... https://youtu.be/65J4rU1NPOg
Hi
Do you now be any chance how to put this unit in recovery mode using reset button or others buttons on the radio
Did you check the easy connected app by me It don't work
HI,
I have not found yet and I have not managed to connect it to a PC. Is made by Luyuan and must function as wd8801 .Can be that someone has more info on the wd8801 model ... have one inew u3 phone and mirror link is fully functionnal , on the phone you must turn on the USB debugging .
I also just purchased this and installed it (via ebay)
Boot time is right at 30 seconds.
Backup cam works even before it boots so it works as needed.
Pandora works
Wifi connects to my phone hotspot for data
Radio works
I was able to remove that glowing circle (setting)
Changed boot image to my car logo in password protected area
Allow music in reverse
Installed google maps and changed settings for the GPS button to load goggle maps by default
Phone can make and receive calls via bluetooth
Can't get to work:
Android screen mirroring
bluetooth data sharing
bluetooth for torque app
I was able to get the obdII adapter to pair, but the app keeps trying to turn on bluetooth when it's already on.
I'm planning to get:
USB front camera
3G dongle
Overall very good value. Missing some features of more expensive units, but for the money ($103.49 after $20 off ebay coupon) this can't be beat! Shipped via FedEx so arrived in about a week.
Thanks for the videos you posted.
If anyone can get more use from bluetooth than just the phone, please share. I've looked through hidden menus and tried a bunch of apps with no success.
How did you manage to pair OBD. me only the phone connects, Are you sure it was the OBD who was paired? and not your phone?
Mirror link is functional but you have to activate the option for develeppeur and usb debugging.
look this video for mirror link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLN_yXqqAjM
To get OBD to pair:
Download shortcut manager lite
hXXps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.shortcutmaster.lite
Then click 3 dots on right
Search for "bluetooth"
The first link there should be to pair. Click on it, and then click the run (rocket ship). It pairs, but that's it. I can't get Torque or any other bluetooth to "turn on" other than the phone call app and BT audio.
Did you use a USB front camera or another type? I haven't purchased that yet or a 3G dongle.
For dvr cam I have that http://www.ebay.fr/itm/262141040813?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT could be better but enough for me , for forward looking I have that http://eu.banggood.com/Wholesale-Wa...a-HD-Night-Vision-CCD-Camera-wp-Eu-90974.html but I find it very wrong and inverted image , I will change .
Thanks for the links. I was thinking it needed to be a USB camera.
I was able to get mirroring to work on the second try. Not sure why it didn't work the first time.
What was the "free gift" that came in the second package? Mine is expected on Saturday. I'm assuming it's an SD card with map software, but that is just a random guess. If so, what maps? Software? Up to date?
If anyone had a bluetooth USB dongle, could you try putting that in the front USB and see if you can connect that to an OBD or data connection from your phone?
I can't put my hands on one right now.
Mine is came with nothing , gps software installed is igo primo but without maps or sd card , had tested 4 bluetooth dongles , but whitout sofwares for control these dongles , give nothing .
My free gift that I mentioned was junk. Went straight to the trashcan.
Thanks for posting bt adapter results, now I won't bother to find mine.
I tried to root with king root, but after I stated the app, it said there was no root available for the device.
Where I got the app: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461
Rooted with Kingroot 4.9.5-149 . Version 4.9.6 did not work with me either ..
Kingoroot was the only app I found that would root it for me. Tried a couple of versions of kingroot and towelroot with no success.
What sat nav apps have people managed to install? I've got igo working after downloading some maps but many of the popular ones say they are not supported on the play store. I tried market helper to see if I could change the device model for the play store but it throws up a token not found error.
In my office we use two things.
1. MIFARE cards that seem to be top of line, encrypted, and we cannot copy/duplicate them.
2. HID access via the phone, works with both Bluetooth and NFC. We're using "seos"s "hid mobile access app".
Is it possible to somehow copy/replicate the access we have on our phone to a card or any other media?
Thank you!
Hi,
I just bougth a HeadUnit witn Android 10, I haven't been able to connect my android mobile phone. I believe the manufacturer didn't install any mirrorlink server or I am not able to find it. I keep asking the manufacturer trough Aliexpress, and theu say that they are checking with any kind of help for a week.
Reading on the internet I have found two options that may work:
1. Phonelink app: I use it and it work for the first time. But it cannot be used from the HeadUnit screen and it has not work again...
2. EasyConnection app: It seems a good option, but I found a website with a versión for android 9, and I have not been able to connect with the mobile phone ever.
Can I get the last versión of the EasyConnection Server (for the HeadUnit) and some kind of manual, please? I get that after install that, I download from Play Store the EasyConnection app for my mobile phone and it should work, is that rigth?
I have connected the phone by cable, by bluetooh and by wifi (access point of the car) all al the same time. I have activated the USB debug and the option to force resize on my mobile phone. It worked the first time that way with PhoneLink! But I would like EasyConnection or any other software that can be used from the HeadUnit screen, please.
Thanks in advance for the help!!
Have a happy new year!
I found what I believe is the easyconnection server app for the head unit, but it is in Chinese I don't understand anything after installing it.
The version is 6.6.2-662
Another issue! Is there any way to force the new apps I install to resize on the screen? The Head Unit has two bars, one on the top and another one athe the bottom. And some apps I have installed (Android Auto for example) does not fit and the menu options are under these bars and I lose important parts of the apps... Could you please help me to figure out, how to manage the resize of the apps? Thanks!
