Does anyone know or can could confirm whether or not the Prime's blueooth supports Serial Port Profile?
I am looking to purchase the a Pioneer AVIC-X940BT
pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/GPS-Navigation/AVIC-X940BT
and it has builit-in wireless app control for Android devices via Bluetooth Serial Port Profile.
---------------
Here is a snippet directly from Pioneer's site.
Android Device Connectivity
Pioneer’s newest in-dash navigation models now support wireless app control via the Bluetooth Serial Port Profile (SPP) for select Android™ devices, enabling audio playback with app display and control through the AVIC touchscreen displays. The following apps are enabled using these new features:
Pandora®internet radio
Pandora internet radio users can enjoy their personalized listening experience fully integrated into their dash and through the speakers in their car. Both Pandora enabled units display the currently playing album, artist and song text information, display current song album art and the user interface features full control of station selection, track info, and thumbs-up and thumbs-down feedback options through the touchscreen of the AVIC systems.
Aha Radio®
With the free Aha Radio app, Android version available Spring ‘12, users can listen to the latest traffic conditions on their current or planned road, listen to Facebook and Twitter updates, access hundreds of podcasts and other services such as the “Hungry” and “Coffee” stations, which deliver real-time vicinity search results and directions to preferred restaurant categories listed on Yelp. Aha Radio offers more than 100 content and podcast stations that can be conveniently accessed and controlled directly on the display of the Pioneer system.
Thanks,

I can confirm that Bluetooth Dial-Up Networking (DUN) works after the 2.1 update using PDANet through my Sony VAIO on the Rogers Network.. yes! now I can fully take advantage of my 6GB data plan without wires!
Also, the PhoneBook Access Profile (PBAP) as well as pulling your recent calls list (not sure what profile that uses) works fine with Android 2.1 using my SE HBH-DS980 headset.
However, on an incoming call, the phone doesn't push the CallerID tag to the bluetooth device. The same goes for the MusicID tag when playing music. From my intuition, I don't think these 2 features require a specific bluetooth profile but will rather need to be implemented in the music or dialer applications to function. I'm not sure why SE is leaving this out on the 2.1 update as it is a huge selling feature for their MW600 headset. All SE phones powered by Symbian or part of the Walkman branding all had these features right out of the box, and the X1 running Windows Mobile had it as a 3rd party support (ie. smartwatchm). It would be nice if a developer can add these features for Android since SE won't.
It also doesn't have the Service Discovery Application Profile (SDAP) to be able to provide the list of available bluetooth services to the master device. This was tested using my SE X1a. So to actually find out what services are supported, you'll have to find out the hard way.
Can anyone tell me what other bluetooth profiles are available now?
Summary:
Confirmed Supported Bluetooth Profiles in 2.1 Update:
-Hands-free Profile (HFP)
-Headset Profile (HSP)
-Object Push Profile (OPP)
-Audio Video Remote Control Profile (AVCRP)
-Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP)
-PhoneBook Access Profile (PBAP)
Ok... i just found the supported bluetooth profiles in the X10

Ringtone over bluetooth
Hi there. i think this is a problem shared by many users:
i habe a Bluetooth Handfree, in this case, FIAT Blue&ME. When i connect for example a Nokia phone and the phone rings, the ring is transfered to the audio systems of the hands free. With my X10mini i hear only the default RING RING from the hands free :-(
Is there anyway to enable handfree transfer of the ringtone in Adroid?
there are persons that describe the same problem but not for android: for example at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=634494
By the way also SMS messages cannot be transfered to my Hands free Blue&Me. Anyone have idea how to fix this?
I think a new application to solve ringtone transfer to handsfree would help ALOT of users.
Regards and thanks..
OpenWatch is an app that is downloadable from the Market that allows bluetooth devices (like SE MBW-200 Bluetooth watch with lcd screen) to receive call/SMS/alerts/music player controls/etc. It supports a couple of other devices as well.

The "Audio Video Remote Control Profile (AVCRP)" is still at v1.0. We need a minimum of v1.3 to display track information on MW600.. :-(
Basically want to know what version AVRCP the EVO 3d has?
I have a Sony Radio which I connect via bluetooth wit my phone and I can stream music without any issues and i can also control the phone via sony head unit.
But the only thing is that it doesn't send the music information to display to the radio!
I have a feeling that the evo3d has Version 1.0 according to wiki below. But is there way to upgrade this?
Here is the wiki info on AVRCP versions:
Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP)
This profile is designed to provide a standard interface to control TVs, Hi-fi equipment, etc. to allow a single remote control (or other device) to control all of the A/V equipment to which a user has access. It may be used in concert with A2DP or VDP.
It has the possibility for vendor-dependent extensions.
AVRCP has several versions with significantly increasing functionality:
1.0—Basic remote control commands (play/pause/stop, etc.)
1.3—all of 1.0 plus metadata and media-player state support
The status of the music source (playing, stopped, etc.)
Metadata information on the track itself (artist, track name, etc.).
1.4—all of 1.0, 1.3, plus media browsing capabilities for multiple media players
Browsing and manipulation of multiple players
Browsing of media metadata per media player, including a "Now Playing" list
Basic search capabilities
I listen to Pandora in my car via bluetooth every time I go somewhere. It's slightly annoying to have to launch the app every time. I'm wondering if there's an app out there that will automatically launch a program when my phone is paired with a specific device (like the Pioneer deck in my car).
I'd like my music to start up automatically when I start my car.
Anyone know of anything?
Thanks!
Locale+Locale Bluetooth Plug-in might solve this issue for you. I'm not allowed to post links but make a search for it on play.google.com.
Instead of Locale, I'd use Tasker. Locale is kind of outdated, and Tasker is less expensive (iirc) and has more support - from both the developer and the community. I never found a real need for the app so I don't know much about it. There is a 7 day trial available on the Tasker website, use that to decide if it can do what you'd like. There may already be a configuration on the website to do what you want to do, so search through those as well.

Check out YouBlue
I developed YouBlue for this purpose. It can auto start a variety of music apps on Bluetooth connect, but that's not all. It's a service, so it listens for events like wifi connect/disconnect, Bluetooth connect/disconnect in an attempt to turn your bluetooth adaptor on or off as needed. The algorithm is completely customizable in the settings.
Best of all, it's free. Search for it on the play store or amazon app store. YouBlue - Smart Bluetooth Auto
When I drive away from home in the morning, my phone never leaves my pocket. It detects loss of wifi connection, turns on Bluetooth to see if my car is in range, then once connected, starts pandora.
Bluetooth connect & Play
I would suggest the following application which is custom built for your use case.
As a new user I can't post a direct link to it, but you can find it in the google Play store.
Code:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cp2.start.and.play.music.player
does youblue have the option to open different apps for different devices?

I am looking for something that will turn on different apps for different devices. I use one app at home on bluetooth speakers and a different one when connected to stereo in the car. Does youblue do this?
I'm looking for a solution to stream audio to multiple smart-phones without lag.
Can this be done?
Using a laptop (win/mac) as a broadcasting station with WiFi connected.
Is there a limit to the connected clients in a Wifi Router?
Can LAG be minimised?
FM transmission is not a direct option, because it's illegal to do. Although most smart-phones have a FM radio and this option produces no LAG.
This is a project to supply listeners to a small open air concert with the direct audio feed, without the use of central amplifiers.
is there an app available that will show what commands/data your phone is transmitting/receiving over bluetooth (sort of like blueTerm, but with more bluetooth profiles)
it factors into a project I'm working on where I am trying to use an arduino/microcontroller (havent decided which will be better) to translate data from the headunit in my car to my phone using AVRCP (while also streaming to the headunit using A2DP), I would just like to better understand whats being sent so that I can more accurately code the PIC/ARD to convert from the headunits systems to AVRCP
any information will be helpful:good:
