I found a thread over at droidforums.com that talks about tethering your android phone's GPS to your PC using Bluetooth with an app in the market called BlueNMEA. I also found this app called Bluetooth GPS in the market that allows your android device to use an external Bluetooth NMEA compatible GPS with several apps that require a GPS, like Google Maps.
Has anyone tried installing BlueNMEA on their phone and side loaded Bluetooth GPS on the NC and tested this yet to get GPS functionality on the NC?
I bought my wife a NC for Christmas and can’t wait to try it myself but since it’s a Christmas gift for her I can’t really open it up yet to try it out.
that would work if we can get bluetooth enabled.
I guess I missed that. I had assumed the bluetooth was working.

I have Parrot Asteroid in my car as of last night and i am looking for a way to share internet with it. Apparently it supports bluetooth DUN via cell phones but as far as i know the SGS2 doesn't support DUN. I have tried wifi tether for root to test but i get an error on the device. Ideally i would like to have Native DUN support for the SGS2 so when it connects via bluetooth for the voice and media it will start sharing internet without any application startup.
Also an alternative method would be USB internet sharing between the android device. This will be beneficial as it would charge the phone too. I know this is supported to a windows machine but another android device?
Anyone gotten BT tethering to work with this particular tablet?
I got a rooted CM7 moto atrix that defo works via bluetooth DUN/PAN (to my laptop). However, when I pair it to my Sony, I don't get ANY options to do anything other than unpair.
wifi tethering of course works fine but I'd prefer BT -less battery drain, don't have to manually dig out my phone to toggle off/on, etc.
I have the following problem with my S3. Most of the times I use my phone with Bluetooth. Since before rooting my device I had the same issue.
I get normal Bluetooth connection with my phone everything works great but when the phone and Bluetooth is disconnected they do not connect automatically. for example when the Bluetooth disconnects from my hands free due to distance when I get back close they don’t pair again.
At moment I am using:
Sotmax v14
Yank555 latest kernel
Baseband: XXELLA
I had the same issue with all stock Roms. When I used CM10.1 the Bluetooth worked as it should without any issue. In general all 4.2.1 roms work ok and the phone auto connects almost instantly.
I have tried many Hands frees (Plantronics, Samsung, and many others) the same thing happens every time.
I am also using an app Auto Bluetooth which is very useful for reserving battery when using Bluetooth hands free. Basically what the app does for those who do not know, it turns Bluetooth automatically on up on receiving a call and off when the call is ended. In my case when the Bluetooth is turned on it does not connect automatically with the phone
So my question is simple.. has anyone solved the problem?
I apologize for my poor English but I did my best. I also searched the forum but I did not find anything related.
Was trying to figure out why I dont have the option to bluetooth tether to my car radio. Is this a Tmobile version of the phone thing?
Is there a way around it? Is it because its tmobile locked? or? any help would be appreciated, hopefully I am not f'd and have to deal with it
There is no problem tethering bluetooth with a PC...must be your radio capability.
Well I just don't even have the option on my phone. Settings > Network and Internet > Tethering.
Only 3 options I have is mobile hotspot and usb tethering and Help.
I go through the same menus on a friends g8x and they have Bluetooth tether option.
Wondering why I Dont?
I have the T-Mobile variant and confirm that bluetooth tethering is not available. It looks like TMobile removed it from most of their LG products. The LG G8X from my understanding is not officially carried by TMobile.
Good news though, you might have some luck with 3rd party apps like PDAnet or some other apps on play store for bluetooth tethering. I'll see if I can test it for you.
So the V60 won't connect to a vehicle? I haven't tried it, but I'm surprised I haven't heard more people complaining about that

I had absolutely no issue connecting mine to my car's infotainment system just pairing through the bluetooth settings. I normally use Android Auto, though, as my car's infotainment system has a well known delay through bluetooth (gen 3 Mazda3). Bluetooth tethering, though, should be for sharing the phone's internet connection. I also only see USB or wifi for tethering on my phone.
