Just wondering if anyone has had any success. I have been able to connect to my laptop ( via dongle ) with a rather antiquated version of Bluesoleil, but only partially. It seems I can send files, but I cannot receive them. Under my Bluetooth settings on the Atrix, it says I am paired, but not connected.
Doe the galaxy s II has Bluetooth DUN because my car radio (Parrot Asteroid) can't detect it.
My phone can connect to my radio and i can listen to music on my phone read my contacts, make calls
but i cannot connect it to internet to make the gps maps and coyote work.
Is there a way to enable it?
My previous phone (Samsung galaxy 3) could do it, why would a newer and more expensive device doesn't support it?
I already tried with PDAnet but it disconnects after about 30 seconds.
Please help...
Hi everyone,
I am an owner of the GSIII I747M and the ASUS Transformer, both running ICS. I recently had this idea (fantasy?) where I mount the Transformer in my car, hook it up to the car speakers and basically use it as my in-car infotainment system instead of the headunit that's in there. Nothing wrong with my in-car headunit (except the fact that I can't get bluetooth to work with my GSIII), but the tablet will give me tons more features. When I enter the car, I want the tablet to automatically tether to my phone via wi-fi and via bluetooth. Wi-fi is for internet access and it works just fine. The bluetooth is for the hands-free profile, so that when I receive a call, the music/navigation/whatever gets interrupted and I can take the call. I also want to be able to dial from the tablet.
When I connect the two devices via bluetooth, I don't have a hands-free profile; indeed I have no useful profiles at all. My question is simple: is there an app for that? Any suggestions? Has anyone done this? Thanks!
Hello,
I have upgraded to Android 4.1.2 and my Kernel is JZ054K.I9100XWLSD. Since the upgrade I face problems with bluetooth. Everytime I conncect via bluetooth to our car telephone system (Audi), I get connected. After 30s I get reconnected than connected again. I had version 4.0.4 before and did not have any problems with bluettooth connections to my car. Does anyone have an idea? Does the 4.1.2 in general has this problem? How to fix it?
Thank you very much for any suggestion ort support!
That's strange. How did you update? Does is connect as rSAP or only with Handsfree profile? Did you already try to remove the pairing from the car and to do a new pairing?
I updated three days ago using KIES from 4.0.4 to 4.1.2 and I do not have any problems with connection to my VW FSE Premium. Everything is working like before I didn't even need to do a re-pairing, the old configuration was still working.

I updated via WiFi. Re-paring was not necessary. I switched not to visibility from 2 Minutes to always. Need to see, if this helps.
I do not need to set/change the visibility on my phone. I switch on bluetooth and when I enter my car, the car "takes" the sim card. When I switch off bluetooth or leave my car, the phone is getting access back to the sim card.

I've had similar issues with my SGS2 on ICS and now with 4.1.2 (XXLSJ). I'm convinced the problem is a combination of the phone's current processes and how often the car kit retries to connect. I have a Parrot based bluetooth kit factory fitted in my 2006 Mitsubishi. It usually connects within about 20 seconds of starting the car. It often won't connect for about a minute and sometimes doesn't connect at all (maybe 1 in 20 times). When it doesn't connect, I turn off bluetooth in the SGS2 wait about 15 seconds and turn it back on. It usually connects again without touching the car kit.
I've noticed that if I unpair the car kit at the SGS2, the car kit will try to reconnect about once a minute and the phone makes a noise to tell me that something is trying to connect.
Recently I took a vacation and rented a 2012 Toyota Camry and paired my SGS2 to its bluetooth. The phone connected faultlessly very time, there were no issues.
My theory is that if the phone is busy with some process or another when the bluetooth kit tries to connect, it misses the connection. If the kit retries several times (I'm guessing the Toyota kit did this), then there seem to be no issues.
I can only guess that if the SGS2 bluetooth stack is given a higher priority it would be less likely to miss the connection. Clearly that's impractical because bluetooth only needs to connect (maybe) 3-5 times a day and may exclude a more frequently used process.
Just my 2 cents worth - I hope that helps

Actually, we own two SGS2 phones: Both pair with our Audi telephone kit. The first reconnects after 30 sec./ 1 minute and then reconnects. The later stays connected. However, if I try to use the phone to dial a number via the Audi telephone unit.....the Audi telephone unit starts to dial and then stucks. The first phone is able to dial.....as I have seen in the web others seem to have the same problem with SGS 2 4.1.2. I even bought BLUETOOTH KEEPALIVE...no succces. With version 4.0.4 neither of the phones had a problem with paring with the Audi device. Any other ideas?
Same for me
Im also having the same issue, I have a SEAT Altea and after upgrading to JB on my S2 i have exatly the same issue.
Connecting to the Blue Tooth now takes a lot longer than previously and i get a rapid reconnection about every 30 seconds or so (could be slightly longer i havent measured it). There is no disconnect sound from the hands free though only a conneciton sound.
Please post if you find a resolution to the issue.
Regards.

Problems with Bluetooth
Hi All,
I have the same problem. I upgraded to 4.1.2 recently and immediately after all was OK. However now it has developed a new problem.
It will connect to the Car Bluetooth and will play music however the minute I start a call it will only use the small speaker designed for when you hold it to your ear. I will not allow me to press the headset button and will not automatically switch to headset/Bluetooth. This is seriously irritating and I have tried all the usual options of rebooting and unpairing etc. but to no avail...
Your pearls of wisdom would be gratefully received

I report the same issue between my SGS2 and my '04 BMW 3-series.
With the 4.0.3 ICS no problems: the phonebook is shared correctly and visibile with the car, without loosing the connection.
Starting from 4.1.2 JB I'm not able to keep up the connection for more than 30 seconds, and I cannot read also the phonebook: in this way the phone cannot be used in the car.
The only way to have JB and the bluetooth working togheter is to install a custom ROM (4.2.2 SuperNexus or RootBox 4.2).
Try it!:good:
Install File Manager which can access system files
go to System/etc/bluetooth
in file called main.conf add
IdleTimeout=0
save file - it worked for me
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.
