Hi, im working setting up my nexus tablet for car duty. i'm trying to connect my phone to the tablet via bluetooth to use as trigger for "automate" to start wifi tether. Phone pairs no problem and it works via "tablet talk" app and syncs there, no problem. but in the bluetooth menu when i press on the tablet it says connected for a split second then seems disconnected again. Automate does not register it as connected to the tablet via bt either. What am i doing wrong?
Nexus 7 wifi MOB30X rooted with timurs kernel
nexus 6p stock, latest update

I drive a ford escape and when I bought it, I set up my phone to connect to the cars bluetooth automatically when I get in.
Since the ics update a couple months ago, I have to manually connect it each time I get in now.
I've looked through all of the setting available, and can't seem to figure out what to do to get it to connect automatically.
My phone is setup as the primary phone, but unless I connect manually, my g/f's phone connects and hers is the secondary phone.
The cars bluetooth seems to be fine as her phone works every time and mine only started to have this issue after ICS.
Any tips?

Have you tried unpairing her phone and pairing only yours?
yeah, no difference.
It seems like ics just doesn't support auto-connecting, but that would be ridiculous....no?
I'm not sure if this is a problem with Wondows 8 or a problem with Jelly Bean but...
I have a windows 8 tablet (Samsung ATIV 700T) and I can connect a bluetooth mouse to it no problems.
I can search and find my note 2 from the tablet and when I click to connect the same confirmation number comes up on both the tablet and the phone.
But the connection just stays as paired and doesn't go to connected? Any ideas why they won't connect? My S2 that was on 4.1 also couldn't connect. The wireless mouse works no worries with the tablet. the mouse also connects with my note 2 as well. But for some reason the tablet and phone see each other and can but only pair and not connect.
Any ideas??? Google doesn't seem to filter enough for me to find anything directly related unfortunately.
I'm hoping to bluetooth tether my internet from my Note 2 to the windows 8 tablet.
Tethering with wifi works well but it sucks more power than if I did it through bluetooth. Any I assume bluetooth wouldn't bottleneck the data speeds too much anyway.
Hi there... struggling a bit with this bluetooth tethering.
So I've done the bluetooth tethering thing before with other devices including my current Razr HD which I sometimes bluetooth tether to my ipad2. There it's a pretty straightforward process.
On the Nexus... not so much. I can get it working, but it's something that takes a little finagling; I have to re-pair the devices if I disconnect.
So after unpairing on my N7, I do the following to make BT tethering work.
1) Select the available device (my RAZR HD for BT tethering) to pair and connect
2) It'll show the pairing code on both devices... I hit pair on them relatively quickly... and then
3) Quickly hit the settings button for the RAZR HD on my N7 screen and select the internet access check mark option. This step has to happen within a few seconds.
If I wait longer than a few seconds after pairing, then if I try to do the internet access check mark... well, it won't work. It refuses to be check marked.
And, as I mentioned before... after disconnecting, I can't just reselect the device to retether; I have to unpair and go through the process again.
Maybe I'll do a video showing success or failure of this if this isn't too clear but... maybe someone can shed some light on this?
Okay... I just did a video of this, showing this thing both not working (by not selecting internet access quickly enough after pairing) as well as working at the end.

I'm having a similar issue with my S4...the Nexus doesn't even see the internet tethering profile and when I try to initiate it from the S4 side, it just goes to "connecting" and then stops.
Bluetooth tethering is working perfectly for me between the Nexus 7 (2013) and my Galaxy Nexus, both running 4.3.

Maybe it's a 4.3 -> 4.2 thing then. I wonder if this RAZR HD will get a 4.3 update anytime soon...
Still really disappointed that my ipad2 just works while the N7 doesn't...
I seem to have a problem connecting my new 10.5" tab s to my Verizon note 3 via bluetooth. It shows that they are paired but when I click connect it acts like it will connect for about 3 seconds (it says connecting...) then just goes back to saying paired. The dude at the Samsung display in Best Buy claimed these 2 devices simply cannot connect through bluetooth which didn't seem right. Tonights?
What I've tried so far: obviously restarting both devices and completely unpairing them as well to no avail...

It isn't right. I have a Note 3 also but with Sprint. I don't have any problem connecting. I would assume it is not the carrier that is causing the problem. It is well known that the Samsung reps at BB know absolutely nothing about their products. I also assume you tried shutting BT off on both devices then re-activating them? Is NFC on on your note? If it is try shutting that off as the slate is not NFC capable and it may be interfering. Just some suggestions.
I have a Note 3 as well from sprint and haven't had an issue connecting via bluetooth. I'll take a look around to see if anyone else is having this issue. Hopefully you'll be able to resolve it.
I did a factory wipe on my phone thinking that may help but was unsuccessful. Those of you who are able to connect your phone and tab, can you use the Internet connection from the phone using bt on the tab?
Update number 2...I factory wiped the tablet too and still no luck. It automatically wants to connect for Internet access and if I have the tab connectrd to WiFi it says it can't connect to bluetooth for tethering if WiFi is connected. Turning off WiFi does nothing...
I have the ATT Note 3 and am able to connect to my Tab S with Bluetooth. On both devices it only says paired. The only time it said connecting is when I initially paired the two devices, once paired the "connecting" was replaced by "paired". I can't find anywhere it says connected yet I am able to send files back and forth between the two via Bluetooth. I don't use Bluetooth to tether so not sure if that is where it's supposed to say connected. Sorry if we're talking about two different things, just trying to help.

Well I feel stupid now haha. I can't connect to use Bluetooth for an Internet connection as I was attempting, but I can send and receive files to and from the tab and phone.
I'm trying to get my MZP to connect to my chromebook via bluetooth so I can use the SMARTLOCK feature. This allows you to login into the chromebook without having to type-in a password if your phone is beside you (and bluetooth is turned on). When I go through the steps it says MotoZ failed to connect.
I've connected my phone to other bluetooth devices and it worked fine. I've also connected my chromebook to my old MotoX and it worked. Therefore, I know their respective bluetooth works. But they don't seem to work together.
Anybody run into this issue?
V20 won't connect to Chromebook Plus (Samsung)
I'm having a similar issue with my LG V20 connecting to my Samsung Chromebook Plus. When I try and connect I get one pairing request on my phone, but two requests on my Chromebook so I can never successfully pair my phone and use smart unlock.
I don't know if it my Chromebook or phone?
