Tether phone to PC for calling functions - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I'm wondering if there is any software possible or if it would be possible in theory?
Basically what I mean is when connecting phone to PC, is it possible to integrate it so the PC is a client to take and recieve phone calls via the mobile, allowing me to utilise my headset and be able to continue using skype etc without having to remove or change headset. Thanks.

You're effectively using your PC as a bluetooth headset. Doing so will depend on your configuration - hardward, Windows version, etc - but it is certainly possible.

Lobster Questions

I have a Lobster with Windows Vista (Mobile Device Center 6.1)
Should it be possible by default (or is it possible at all) to surf the internet via Bluetooth / USB cable rather than GPRS?
I can Sync via Bluetooth fine.
Thanks for your help!
browsing via bluetooth or usb
You may have already got this working, but I only just saw your post.
The answer is yes, if your active-sync works actually the USB connection should connect you to the internet through the PC. Bluetooth is a bit more difficult since Microsoft has never understood bluetooth properly (compare with the Nokia PC suite where it takes about 2 clicks to set up!). Anyway after an hour or so of frustration I was able to browse over b/t on my Lobster.
Just for fun I installed Fring and was also able to use Skype and SIP the
same way.
Now just need to unlock the phone!
Good luck.
Mike.

Q: Is there a way to Android to Android tether or have navtive bluetooth DUN?

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?

[Q] SIP Capabilities via USB (answering and making calls via computer)

Was wanting to know if there was any way that one can use a USB headset that connects to his PC to make/take calls from his phone that is also connected via USB?
I know you can do it with bluetooth (using the PC as a bluetooth headset) but is there another way to do it if you don't have a bluetooth dongle?
Thanks.

Transferring Phone Calls to Tablet?

So I have a tablet (with data) that I use in my car as a media hub connected via Bluetooth using this device. Now, one of the problems I've run into with this setup is that I can not answer phone calls because my tablet is paired to the bluetooth and my phone isn't. So, I was wondering if there is an app that allows handing off/transferring phone calls from an Android phone to an Android tablet? The only thing I've discovered is that Samsung has this built into their phones/tablets via an called SideSync. For that reason, I've considering switching my phone and tablet to Samsung version, but would really prefer not to do that if I don't have to. I also do not want to get a new number and forward my calls to it when driving.
