When ever I connect my new iPad to my cell via Bluetooth it launches
Hotspot on my cell. Is it possible to remove hotspot and launch wireless tether when it's connected via Bluetooth on a custom rom? Any thoughts?
Thanks
What ROM and what gen of iPad? Also, why BT tether when wifi or ad hoc is more efficient?

Ipad (Gen3Wifi-only) and BAMF Rezound ICS v1.1 Official Rom, I wanted to be able to use the gps from my cell on my Ipadl. The only way to use it is through Bluetooth. Thanks for your reply.

Is it possible to simultaneously have Bluetooth Tether & A2DP? I'm looking to have A2DP to send audio to my car's speakers and wifi tether for the passengers. Thanks,
Why?
I don't think you could BT Tether & Stream the audio & WiFi Tether... I can't imagine why you would want to...
Maybe if you had one WiFi app and one BT app for the tethering it might work ... though I dont see why you can't use use the WiFi to tether for data and enjoy the A2DP BT for music???
Your topic is misleading. After carefully reading your question.
The shot answer is yes (assuming you wifi tether and not bt tether.)
I am currently listening to Pandora on my ad2p headset and I have cm7 built in hotspot turned on and my epic 4g is happily surfing the web on Lte 4g.
So score...for you and woot! Tethering hotspot in cm7 works.

Thanks guys - I'm new to tethering and for some reason thought it was all through bluetooth. Appreciate it!
So, I'm running on the latest nightly of cm7 on my vibrant with a glitch kernel. What I want to do is share my wired connection with my laptop, phone, and ps3 without having a wireless router. The thought is to use reverse USB tethering to put the connection to my phone then use the wifi hotspot ability to share the connection with my ps3. I know the ps3 won't recognize Adhoc being produced by the computer, also it's impossible to receive wifi and broadcast it at the same time. So is it possible to do what I propose?
Hi,
On my HTC Desire running Cyanogenmod I used to be able to use the wireless tether app for root user's

I used to tether my ASUS Transformer to it using Bluetooth tethering as it was much easier on the battery.
Now I know that you need a compatible kernel for Bluetooth tethering to work.
My question is, has anyone come across a Galaxy S2 kernel that supports Bluetooth tethering?
Many thanks.
I would like to know also!
I haven't tested it myself, requires root:
tether Blu - Free Edition:

There appears to be a new version of pdanet has anyone been able to get this to work as a bluetooth tether?
From the deafining silence I take it the only way to tether currently is via wifi?

I tether with Bluetooth from my Droid x and Droid 2. Use Open Garden Wifi Tethering from the market. Open it, menu, settings, check use Bluetooth pan tethering and start it. Pair phone with prime using Bluetooth and connect. This will work assuming your phone is rooted.
I just tried it, and it seems to work for me.
1) HTC Evo 4G, Sense 1.0-based ROM with PDANet 3.25
2) Transformer Prime with PDANet Tablet
Evo is connected to my home network via Wifi. Prime has Wifi disabled.
I got some Bluetooth error the first time I tried enabling Bluetooth DUN in PDANet on the phone, but it worked the second time. PDANet Tablet saw it almost immediately and was able to connect just fine. I think we have a winner here.
BT tether using PDANet Tablet (new) did not initially work with a Droid2. After the recent update for the Transformer Prime it is now working!

Want to use your phone's 3/4G data connection with the TouchPad? Having come over from the Nook Color tablet forum, I've tested the Nook Color Bluetooth Tether app on the TouchPad with 20120712 CM9 nightly, and it works. This app, available for free in Google Playstore, allows you to share your phone's data connection by pairing your TP with your phone. Nice when you don't have free wifi. Get it here:

youre likely gonna miss out on some speed using bluetooth tethering for anything above 3g. For the bandwidth and latency, it all depends which version of Bluetooth both your phone and your tablet support, and what kind of network connection you're tethering. Your connection speed will only be as fast as the fastest standard supprted by both devices. more than likely that'll be bluetooth 2.0, and if you're lucky both will support EDR profile. that will max out at 3mbps. Sticking with wifi would be your best bet for 3.5g and up for sure.
thanks for the info
