Hi,
I am looking for a wşdget app which can enable bluetooth audio streaming with just one click.
Actually, it should be configured to connect to a specific audio device when the widget is clicked.
Is there such software ? Or any simple method to do this ?
I am using ADW Ex launcher and it has some activity selection but bluetooth connection is not one of them.
Moved to proper section
thanks for moving the thread to the correct section.
I believe there must be more than one way and/or app which achieves what I'm looking for. It is a very reasonable requirement.
any ideas ?
no ideas anyone ?
Is "Bluetooth profile widget" what you are looking for?
Just search for it on the market...

This is exactly what I'm looking for
How did you find it ? It wasn't there 2 days ago...
Your question was interested to me, because I am also using BT for audio streaming all the time... So I did a simple search
Sometimes my phone doesn't want to auto connect to cars BT interface, so this is definitely very useful app for me.

I recently installed a BT-enabled stereo into my wife's car. We quickly discovered it's pretty annoying to have to navigate through Settings -> Wireless -> Bluetooth -> FZ709 just to connect the phone to the stereo. And for reasons I haven't quite figured out, if you activate BT with the slide-down menu (I'm on Froyo via Bionix-V), it only displays the device picker the first time.
I know I can create a shortcut to the BT settings... but does anyone know of an app or widget that lets me create a shortcut directly to a specific BT device?
Optimally I could simply click a widget to enable BT and connect to the device, and click it again to disable BT.
Couldn't find anything like this in the Market, unfortunately.
I would love to see something to simplify the process as well

I just recently installed a bluetooth stereo in my car as well. After initial setup, I gave my stereo full access to my media and phone audio and I just leave bluetooth on all day. I don't find that it eats much battery unless it is actually being used. Whenever I get in my car it just automatically connects without me having to do anything. I now have a kenwood excelon if that makes any difference and before this I had a pioneer premier and that worked fine as well.
You might double check what your settings are for that paired device under options in your bluetooth settings. If you are not sure where your options are under bluetooth settings just click and hold the paired device and you'll get a pop up with options in there.

The only options I see are Connect, and to use it for Phone and/or Audio connectivity.
You know, I've always been such a battery miser, I haven't thought to actually see what Bluetooth uses. Now that I'm running Bionix V and battery life is as good as old phones used to be, I think I'll check it out.
Id like to know if anyone knows of an app that lets the nook receive audio from another device, and better yet, if you know if I can control that device through the nook. At minimum I'd like to be able to transmit BT audio to my nook because Ive installed my nook in my car. I'm looking to use pandora or google music from my phone and be able to switch songs on the phone using my nook. That's probably a far fetched app and very specific, but I'd like to know if anyone knows of anything that they use for other purposes that may suit this. Thanks!
Wouldn't it be a lot easier to put pandora or google music on your nook and tether your phone to it for the data connection only.

Hi, I've spent hours on Google trying to find the answer to this but to no solution. Can anyone advise me on how to set up my Htc Sensation to auto launch the car mode when it connects to my Bluetooth headset. I've seen apps like tasker but I don't know how to use or configure it. Help please =/

try bluedock from the play store.. turns on car dock mode when you connect to a bluetooth you select.. link below

Hello everyone, I have a few questions concerning tasker and BT audio streaming for a car dock.
The plan would be to place the phone into the dock and have it instantly start streaming audio over BT throughout the vehicle as well as open torque app.
I can purchase a BT receiver and that will take care of the streaming. But could I use NFC tags along with tasker to auto start the streaming and open torque also? Just checking all my bases to make sure it'll work.

Yes. I'm actually setting up something similar. If you are only doing those two tasks you should check out NFC Task Launcher in the play store. Its a little simpler to use. It can also launch any custom tasked events you create (I think).
I want to create an app to stream audio using Bluetooth from one Android device to another and have them both playing audio at the same time. I know that there are multiple apps that accomplish this with WiFi (like AmpMe), but a Bluetooth solution would be the most convenient. The BluetoothMusicPlayer app is the only one that does pretty much what I want but it's extremely buggy, and I've only gotten it to work for a few seconds.
From a post on stackoverflow, it looks like it's possible to make an Android device into an audio receiver through a patch on the Bluetooth package for Lollipop and later, but can it be done through an app?
(Since I'm a new user, I can't post the link to it, but the topic is titled "Android device as a receiver for A2DP profile" and the answer is by nilo.)
I'm fairly new to app development, but I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could lead me in the right direction.
Thanks.
