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

Does anyone have the same problem as me?
I am a frequent user of wifi sharing as a have an iPad with no sim.
Few days before I upgrade my one x rom to the latest version HD revolution 18.1. Then I keep trying share wifi with my gf and my iPad.
I find out that even if my oneX can connect the Internet while sharing, the other device can't.
It worked before I upgraded it.
I checked the thread of the HDR rom, I didn't find anyone there asked the same question.
Please help me to figure out the problem

Not sure anyone will be able to help with this appreciate its a long shot, i've bought a Garmin Vivosmart fitness tracker and it connects to the phone via Bluetooth, now it all works mint except if i go out of range with the bluetooth the phone and garmin are supposed to reconnect automatically but it doesn't i have to unpair and then repair which isn't the end of the world but is a pain in the backside, looking on the garmin forums lots of people with M8's saying the same so there seems to be an issue with the way HTC - Garmin bluetooth works, some phones seem to work perfect (as in other android phones) so it doesn't seem a generic android-garmin issue, just wondering if anyone has had the same issue with any other bluetooth equipment and managed to find a cure ?
also if anyone know if custom roms mess about with bluetooth and the way it works, tempted to try an AOSP rom or CM to see if the bluetooth works properly but i do like sense so would prefer to stick with what i got, using Insertcoins Sense 7 rom, might go back to official sense 6 and see if that works also...
thanks for any suggestions...

It worked fine for me with KitKat.
Friday evening I upgraded to LolliPop. (Did a clean install, no data restore from backup)
Since then I have the same problem. Once you lose your Bluetooth connection it won't reconnect anymore.
You have to unpair and the repair in order to be connected again. A real pain in the ass, as I use it only for the notifications on the bracelet.
I have had a Vivosmart since the week they came out. I had a lot of the BT issues the first few months (mainly due to their software being released before it was really production ready) but has been fine since. I'm rooted and have ran a few different roms without an issue. Currently I'm using SkyDragon's Sense 7 rom. I haven't had to pair to my phone due to disconnects for at least a couple months. Are you pairing from with-in the Connect app? At one time the pairing was done via the regular android BT devices but they got rid of that and now pair from the app only. So technically your Vivosmart shouldn't ever show up on the list of installed/connected BT devices because it's only paired from the Connect app. I'm sure you've been on the garmin forum but if you haven't or someone else reading this hasn't it's here https://forums.garmin.com/forumdisplay.php?478-vivosmart. I've seen posts over there about m8 users having problems but don't remember reading if anyone was able to get the problem fixed and what they did. It doesn't make sense that it works for some (like me).
Hello,
I have same problem with Garmin Fenix 3. Apparently there is some bug in HTC ONE M8 Android 5.0.1
I am able to connect and connection is quite stable but watch wont reconnect automatically.
Usually it will reconnect once you reset BT on phone and than on watch. But its quite annoying so I am also looking for solutions. Any idea? Ive tried to add watch to trusted device under smart lock but its not working either. I know most Garmin devices worked on previous version of android on HTC ONE M8 but with Lollipop its bugged..

G'day wakers,
I have had exactly the same problem with my m8. I also have only used insertcoin rom which may be part of the problem as I have an identical m8 with stock lollipop (never unlocked or rooted) and it has no problems with the vivosmart or Garmin Fenix BLE connection.
I have since sold my m8 and traded up to an m9, which is still stock, but I'm reluctant to flash custom Rom as the Bluetooth works perfectly... On the other hand, stock roms drive me mental with bloatware and ads.
If you try another Rom I'd be very interested to hear how you go...as it may give me some confidence to unlock my brand new m9.
Cheers.

Cheers for the reply i might try a few different rom's i presumed that lollipop was the issue from what your saying maybe not then i'll let you know...
I have any M8 stock lollipop and vivosmart. When vivosmart go out of range lose connection. When vivosmart come Back near smartphone, if I want to connect it, i must switch off Bluetooth and switch on manually.
It is not auto.
Can you help me?
Thank you

I'm experiencing an even worst problem with no pairing at all with my fenix 3 and Garmin Connect with Cyanogenmod 12.1 .
I've done the test with a Samsung SII, Oneplus X and Oneplus One. All pairing fail and all with Cyanogenmod 12.1
It's working well with a Samsung Galaxy S5 ! So if one Cyanogenmod developper is reading this, can you please let us know if this bug is known, or if you can log it, and i can help some troubleshooting as well.

Solution found on my side by realizing that one dialog box is not scaled in Garmin Connect and so the "yes" button is not visible in material design. I've understood this by rolling back to Cyanogenmod 11 and see the process.
Workaround is to use a language with shorter words like english. My initial set was in French. So if it can help somebody else with Garmin Connect, use it
I have an MTCD PX5 unit using SVA ROM Android 6 and I have been using it with my Phone for calling over Bluetooth. I am also using WiFi HotSpot on the phone to share the Internet Connection.
After the phone has been updated to 8.1 (it's a Nokia 6) Bluetooth only works well (not perfectly) if the HotSpot function is disabled. When enabled, the bluetooth connection is lost after I make the first call (which fails actually, the sound moves back and forth between the unit and the phone).
Does anyone else use a phone updated to 8.1?
Thanks.
I recently got this phone and am having trouble getting "Android auto" to work with my car. I can assure you that my car is compatible, and the cables used work with every other Android phone I've tried.
Is there some issue with the Nokia G21? Does android auto work for any of you?
Same issue is with me... I am not able to connect my car's touch screen with Nokia G21 using android auto... earlier it was working with Pixel 4a (android auto) and iPhone (apple carplay) both... no solution yet
I am having the same issue with my G21 and Suzuki vehicle. My LG and CAT phones worked fine. - So annoying
