BT-339 Connect Issue - G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had an OnCourse BT-339 hanging around in the house. I used it for my Dell Axim 51v. So I thought I would give it a try connecting to my gtab. I have read many posts about connection issue but can't find one specific to my issue. I cannot get the gtab bluetooth to pair with the gps. I tried my bluetooth headset and that connected fine. Is my gps unit outdated or am I doing something wrong.

I just paired my OnCourse BT-339 with my Nook Color running CM7 RC4 so it should work for you as well. I had to download an app from the marketplace called "Bluetooth GPS". Just download the app and launch. If no devices are paired it will take you to the pairing screen, this time it should pair (I too could not pair before downloading this app even though I could see the BT-339 in the list of BT devices). Once paired, it should show the BT-339 in a pull-down list. Just hit connect and it should connect.
Hope it works.

bluetooth headset?

Hi,
I've been running vegan 5.1b happily for sometime (and 3.0 etc before). Everything works, except for bluetooth headset connection: GTab keeps saying that it pairs with my device but it's not connected. I searched the forum but I couldn't find any solution; any suggestion?
Thanks!

I use one all the time with Beta5.1. Will your headset connect with other stuff?
mine will show as "paired" but that does not mean its connected at that moment.
Flick on your wifi settings go under blue tooth, click the head phones and MAKE it connect.
let us know if that works.

I have two BT phones and a BT headset (samsung WEP460). The headset does connect to the phones so at least the headset works.

My Gtab with vegan 5.1b does pair with all three BT devices but it won't connect. I long-pressed the headset icon on the Gtab to bring up the options; I clicked both "connect" and "audio devices" but it does not do anything.
I was on TnT Lite 2.2 before switching over to vegan (3.* and now 5.1b), and back then I was able to use BT to transfer files between my phones and GTab. Did something happended in between? (I did not try BT in vegan 3.*)
Thanks!

Anybody got the Bluetooth working with vegan 5.1?
I am having same issue. I think it might stem from not being able to enter the pair code into GTablet? The direction for my headset say i must type in 0001 on my phone after pairing. GTablet does not seem to have any way to do this.
Any Ideas?
For what it's worth, I haven't had any issues using my Rocketfish BT headphones with Vegan 5.1.
I use a Sonorix BT adaptor with regular sound isolation ear buds on vegan 5.1. It works great!
Pair then go into tablet bt settings under wireless.
Then.....
Pandora or Rhapsody while surfing or kindle reading.
I'm having the same issue with 5.1.1. Can't connect my motorola headset or my wiimote. They pair, but nothing will stay connected. Manually forcing a connect through the menu doesn't seem to do anything.
Likewise, I've got a Motorola H17 that connects fine with my Razr and N1 but woun't connect with my Vegan 5.1.1 with Clemsyn v8. Pairs correctly but no connection.

Replying to own post.
Just found Clemsyn's v9. Same thing. Still no connection.
It seems to be an issue with the tablet using VEGAn 5xx because I have that problem too yet no one had a solution so far, or at least no one posted a solution.
I have a Jawbone and my computer and both are paired but not connected. I did connect the Jawbone to my phone so the problem is not with the Jawbone but with the tablet.
Same issue here. I have tried quite a few different bluetooth devices with the same outcome. Can pair (or so it says) but unable to connect. No options found to force it.
Vegan 5.1 here also no bluetooth. Getting "Paired but not connected"
Anyone have a work around for this? Would love to ditch my USB cable to transfer files

You can transfer files wirelessly using an app called file expert. It creates a web site or ftp site with your wifi connection. It is not a fix but at least a work around.

Same here, I have a plantronics bluetooth headset that is "connected" but no sound, and make the tablet no sound also, have to reboot to get sound work again.

Motorola s10 HD works fine withvvegan 5.1.1

[Q] Bluetooth question

I want to use the app Bluetooth GPS to connect my Nexus One running CM7 to my Gtab running TnT Lite 4.4 for navigation fun. Both devices will pair with each other but when I click gtab in my N1's BT settings nothing happens. For all my other devices the N1 starts connecting w/ no problem.
If I click my N1 in my gtab's BT settings it only asks if I want to unpair. For my other device on my gtab it will also start connecting no problem.
So I am confused as to why the 2 remained paired but won't connect. Is it because Android sees both devices as "phones?"
In the app's reviews someone named "Art" said Bluetooth GPS was the only app that connected his gtab and phone.
Thank in advance for the help!

Setting up bluetooth OBD2 with android

My touch pad is running CM alpha 3.5 and i managed to sync it with a bluetooth OBD2 device i baught of ebay. I have installed torque on my toucpad however the OBD device is not communicating with it.
On my laptop running win7 i synced the obd device and using free obd software it was communicating with my laptop and was able to read the ECU.
SO the OBD device is working, just not likeing my touchpad. Is there something i am doing wrong??
Thanks
Alpha 3.5 here with a generic OBD2 BT reader. Torque finds and connects to mine right away...works great and looks sweet. If you want GPS data you can tether your GPS to your phone with an app from Market, it works great.
If you are prompted for a password when torque connects to your OBD reader, try 1234.
thanks for your reply. I was hoping it was a case of plug it in and sync to get it working.
i have managed to connect a GPS reciever i found lying around my house and got it working fine with copilot using a app off the market place. Its just the OBD device dosent want to work. Ill borrow a friends phone and try it out with the free version of torque to see if it works fine. The other option is get a WLAN obd deivce for my iphone but i really dont want to pay the stupdily high prices they are atm.
Last night i tested out using a friends galaxy s2 and it all worked fine straight away
The only difference i noticed when paired with the s2 the android bt settings says the obd device is 'connected'. With my touchpad it says 'paired but not connected'
Had the same issue with the free version of torque app, try to purchase the full version and try it then, works great for me. If it still doesn't work you have 15 minutes to return the app for a refund.

Paired not connected is what it will always say unless you are directly accessing it. If I open torque it finds my device and connects, then the status indicates connected.
make sure you pair with the correct code
i got an ELM327 bluetooth thing from amazon last month for $20. had to get the pair code off some comments on amazon.
the first time i tried to pair with the wrong code, it said it paired but torque didn't read it at all. kinda weird that it said it paired.
once i got the right code, torque worked fine.

[Q] Prime has trouble pairing with Logitech bluetooth audio adapter

I just bought a Logitech bluetooth audio adapter (Model 980-000540) and am having a lot of trouble getting my Asus Transformer Prime to pair with it.
I've got the gold TF201, 32GB, all software up to date. I've gotten it to pair a couple times reliably, but the other 20 times I've tried pairing it works like this:
1) Press the button on the Logitech that puts it into discovery mode. The light on the unit starts flashing green to indicate it is announcing itself.
2) In the Prime settings, I have Bluetooth enabled, and then search for devices.
3) The Logitech unit shows up in the "Available Devices" list pretty quickly. Sometimes I see (what appears to be) a MAC address, sometimes it shows up as "(A9)Logitech Adapter".
4) When I click on the Logitech item in the list, it goes gray and says "Pairing" underneath it.
5) Most of the time, it the moves to the section above, to indicate that it has paired.
6) Immediately the green light changes to red on the Logitech, indicating it has lost pairing.
7) Shortly afterwards, the Logitech item goes back into the "Available devices" section.
8) If I try to pair now, with the Logitech no longer in discovery mode, the Prime will show a dialog that says "Couldn't pair with (A9)Logitech Adapter because of an incorrect PIN or passkey." The only option is OK, and there is no ability to set the PIN.
This happens 19 out of 20 times, but it's locked on a couple times and seems totally solid and reliable after that. It's just the pairing process which seems unbelievably fragile.
To my surprise, my Samsung Galaxy Nexus (LTE) has no trouble pairing with it at all. It paired the first try, and now whenever I turn Bluetooth back on it immediately syncs with the Logitech with no hassle at all. Rock solid.
I've tried various tricks, but none seem to work:
- Put the tablet into Bluetooth-broadcast-visible mode at the same time.
- Turning bluetooth off and then back on, etc.
Has anyone else had trouble with Logitech bluetooth speaker adapters too? Or does anyone have any tricks or apps that can coax the Transformer Prime into pairing more reliably?
Thanks for any help,
Jim
I had a very similar problem last week trying to pair a LG headset with the prime, connected with phone perfect, and but likewise when trying to connect also to prime second got the lost connection, incorrect pass/pin etc etc.
I solved it by connecting bluetooth headset to phone, then under phones bluetooth settings press and hold device name to bring up a menu, and select options. Then unchecked the Media option/box. I then tried to connect the device to prime and it worked flawlessly. Since then I haven't had an issue and can even switch between the phone/prime & bluetooth device with no issues.
Hope above helps and you get it sorted.
Try this app. It may help if nothing else does.
Bluetooth Address Finder - Market
Not sure if the Prime or your Logitec gives you the option to input the BT address or not. I've not had any problems pairing or connecting to any of my BT devices.

OBD II devices

Both Bluetooth and Wifi OBD-II devices are supported by our headunits. Keep in mind that you get what you pay for with these devices and the cheap ebay ones aren't very reliable
OBD devices are only detected if broadcasting name contains OBD. There is a work around using petrows CarService
Please report back any that work for you
Wifi
- VGate iCar 2
Bluetooth
-
Wired (USB)

Note: If connecting to wifi device, you'll lose you access to the internet (wifi/3g)
Curious about how to resolve the problem I have with OBD.
I use an OBDLink LX, which is far and away one of the best you can use. Not a cheap Chinese knock-off and it has specific support in both Torque and Dashcommand.
On my MTC KLD unit, Torque detects the OBD device just fine. Torque just works with it, I didn't have to do anything.
However, Dashcommand does not reliably detect it. Dash Command is enumerating devices differently somehow, and just shows "paired device" for everything. I was able to randomly choose one once, and it worked. The next time, it wouldn't work on either one. I would MUCH prefer to use Dash Command, as Torque gives me wildly inaccurate readings (MPG, HP, Torque, all are way off despite using accurate profile information). Dash Command tech support insulted me by simply responding to read the user manual PDF.
Any ideas?
I've just got a "LUJII Mini OBD2 ELM327 V1.5 Bluetooth Car Scanner". Works ok with my phone, and in the Bluetooth menu it seems to pair. But then Torque says it is not paired even though I have the OBD sign in the top status bar.
Need to force the pairing inside of the torque app by selecting which OBD device and then it works ok.

same problem for me on my kld 3066 Torque is paired and working immediatly.
dashcommand pair OBDII BT device but always don't connect, i just found that OBDII connect to dashcommand 80% of the times if I force dashcommand to close from Apps list and that I restart the App
I write lot of mails to dashcommand about this problem (also because i buy), ...I send Debugs and so...but I still with the same problem
Am I gonna also lose connection to may hands free bluetooth if I get a bluetooth one?
I never had one of those and would like to know which one you recommend for a Rk3066 HU
Thanks.
I got this one off amazon and for 11 bucks it works 99% of the time. The only issue I have had is it reads wrong codes on Subaru but works fine on Toyota, Nissan and Kia so far.
Cant post links but this is close

Hi all.....
I've got a SCANTOOL OBDLink LX connected to my AUDI S3 8P, and it's the fastest BT dongle i've ever seen.....it make about 45 Fps, when china's ELM make 10 Fps.....
Unfortunatly, the TP 2.0 protocol isn't available with a standard ELM327.....you just access to generic PIDs, so it's limited.....i'm working on it.
I also try a WBH BT5 dongle, witch should read the TP 2.0 with TORQUE......at the moment, i can't access to my ECU MED9.1 (but i can on KWP1281 EDC15P), i'm working on it too, with florian Help...
To paired with the WBH BT5, you need to override in Xposed MTC the dongle string name, and it work fine.

As an update, since I remove carservice this works much better, no need to force pairing everytime.

No you can bluetooth to more than one device at a time.
Anyone using VGate iCar v2 or v3 BT version? I wish to have one of these as they have automatic sleep mode so you can keep it plugged all the time without batt drain.
So I've tried both this adapter http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014MV03KY?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00 and this adapter http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005NLQAHS?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00
And I can't get either of them connect to bluetooth. They both show up when you search for the adapter, but neither of them connect. They don't even give me the option to put in the PIN to have them connect. Has anyone ever had this kind of issue? If so what can I do to fix it?

What module do you use to override the name? I need to do this too for my Kiwi3 but I can't find the relevant settings anywhere.

Correction - I found the settings page finally - apparently I hadn't actually enabled xposed MTC. Once it was enabled and rebooted, I still haven't been able to get the device to show up at all in the bluetooth settings. I've tried:
K
k
Kiwi
KIWI
Kiwi 3
3
kiwi
KIW
kiw
Kiw
as well as leaving the field blank. Still nothing in the bluetooth settings. I can confirm that the device is on and connectable from my phone. Am I doing something wrong?
has anyone found an adapter that plays well with mtcb decks and 2001 f150's? i've tried 3 adapters and still haven't gotten one that does both. either the connect no problem to my deck but not to the ecu or they connect to ecu but its named "chx" instead of obd and won't connect to my deck. i did try using the xposed module to override but it never worked for me either.
