Hello all!
I've recently been tethering my AT&T featurephone to my iPod Touch over bluetooth DUN, and then creating a Wireless network with my iPod for my SGP to connect to...
While this tedious process works just fine, I'd love to just cut the iPod Touch out of the equation (So I don't have to carry around 3 devices at all times).
Does anyone know how to use Bluetooth DUN on Android? I don't have a smartphone so I can't use those common apps. The way I do it on my iPod is to use an app called iBluever and use it to share my phones 3G connection over bluetooth.
If anyone has any idea how to do this, or how we could develop it, please let me know! =)
Thanks!
You have to install ambrice's CM7 port with additional ppp_async included, ambrice will release the rom with ppp_async next time.
Let's see that link http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/...r-blackberry-phone-via-bluetooth/#entry268658
I miss ibluever on android too much!
I've contacted the developer of BlueDUN (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blue_dun) if it is possible to make BlueDUN acts as a client (now is only a server).
Does anyone have the same issue where the wifi becomes wonky when the bluetooth is on and connected to a bluetooth keyboard.
I have the Sony Xperia Tablet Z wifi version with an Apple bluetooth Keyboard.

It's a common problem. Reported all over another forum.

I am having the same issue using either a Bluetooth keyboard, mouse or sixaxis controller un my Tablet Z Wifi.
If someone is using a bluetooth keyboard/mouse without wifi problems, could they post here as well. I would like to know If every one has this issue.
This thread is about the same problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2346553 could the be merged?
I'm listening to internet radio over bluetooth (instead of the inbuilt speakers), have a Microsoft Wedge Bluetooth keyboard connected and am writing this at the same time.
2 Bluetooth devices at the same time plus Wifi, all working.
(Wifi channel is 9. SGP311.)

@hasenbein1966 Could you do a internet Speedtest with and without bluetooth connected, what firmware are you running, and how many wifi networks are on your channel?
My Internet is fast (30000kbps download) I am geting that speed on my tablet z. As soon as I connect my bluetooth keyboard (acctully it is the Microsoft Wedge as well) it drops to ~300kbps. So something happens to my wlan on the Tablet Z. As I am living in a Flat I do not have a channel for my self. I am sharing that channel with 2 other Wifi Networks.
If someone knows what to change on the Tablet Z please tell my, I bougth it just for working with keyboard/mouse!
Mine is SGP312 (32GB, Wifi only), firmware is 10.1.C.0.370, device is rooted, bootloader is locked

just tried playing around with my channels...
the good news is i think i may have actually upped my speeds by changing to a different channel!
the bad news is i drop from around 3.5MB/sec with just wifi on, to under 0.03MB/sec with Bluetooth turned on and a bluetooth keyboard connected... and then it didn't even finish the speed test, it just stopped and said there was a connection error.
this is awful.
Did someone already test whether changing the WiFi to a 5 GHz channel (Bluetooth works in the 2.4 GHz band where also normally the WiFi operates) helps?
(Can't test it myself because my router doesn't support 5 GHz.)
Hi All,
This seems to be pretty common (saw someone complaining in the Transformer forums). I've noticed the same issue myself. I'm using wireless BT headphones, and the Wifi throughput drops precipitously when I'm streaming music to them. I've got a dual-band router, so I'll set up the tablet to connect to 5Ghz and let y'all know what happens.
Thanks,
John Francis
I have now measured speeds with a speedtest app.
When I only have connected my Harman Kardon Bluetooth audio receiver, the WiFi works perfectly normal and has same throughput as without Bluetooth on.
When I connect my BT keyboard, Wifi speed becomes very low (below 1 Mbit).
So, not BT in general is the culprit - it depends on the kind of device!
OK, with the tablet on 5GHz I get ~55 Mbps. On 2.4 GHz, ~21Mbps. These are Harman Kardon BT headphones.

John Francis

@jfrancis999 these rates look both ok. There shoul be no problems. Are these with audio streaming to the Headphones? If you have a Bluetooth keyboard, mouse or gamepad (playstation 3 controller) could you maybe test with one of these connected an 5GHz?
@all if we make a list of all working and not working devices we can maybe find what they have in common an what is the problem.
Not Woking:
Microsoft Wedge Mobile Keyboard, BT Profile HID, BT Version and Class unkown
Playstation 3 dualshock3 controller, BT Profile HID, BT Version and Class unkown
Whit these devices connected Wifi speed drops to under 1Mbit/s
Does any one have a BT Keyboard and while it is connected to the tablet z Wifi speed does not drop under 1Mbit/s?
@someone having good understanding of android and bluetooth: is there a way, I can force the tablet to reduce trassmitting power to class 2 or 3? I want to test if that makes any difference but I do not know how.
It's really strange, since a simple keyboard should need much less bandwidth than transmitting audio over BT, so one would expect the Wifi drop with the audio device, not with the keyboard...
I just have a Motorola Keyboard & Mouse combo pack... I'm not seeing any model number on it, but it's definitely Motorola. Totally kills wifi speed when either one or both are connected. So you can add that to the list.
Hi All,
With the tablet connected to 5GHz I get the following speeds:
* Playstation 3 controller disconnected: 58Mbps down/30Mbps up
* Playstation 3 controller connected: 42Mbps down/12Mbps up
With the tablet connected to 2.4GHz I get the following speeds:
* Playstation 3 controller disconnected: 4Mbps down/30Mbps up (not sure what's up with the download speed)
* Playstation 3 controller connected: 103Kbps down/52Kbps up (OUCH!)
Regards,
John Francis
@jfrancis999 Thanks for your tests!
I will be in my office on Monday. There I will try a 5GHz wifi as well. If that works well, we have at least a workaround. Still, I hope there is a fix for this problem, but untill then we could bypass that problem.
I will post the results here on monday.
I am still looking for someone who can tell me, how to reduce the transmission power of bluetooth on android!?
after a week, sony support finally wrote me back. they said it sounds like a software problem and i should use the PC Companion software to do a software repair. anyone else tried this yet? also if i do this, is there any way to backup EVERYTHING, including my widget setup, icon placement, folders, settings... all of it...
Bah, they simply have no clue.
Like the dudes on the official Sony support forum, this support guy just gave some random halfway "fitting sounding" answer, like a Windows support guy who says: "Restart Windows"...
I wouldn`t use this "PC Companion" crap, honestly.
I just got a Netgear Push2TV 3000, which not only encompases WiDi, but Miracast support in this version.
From what my indersstand is though, is that both these WiDi and Miracast technologies are basically just wireless HDMI anyway.
My question is if it's possible to come up with a mod to work to allow any (or at least most) rooted phones with a ROM like CM that intergrate Miracast into their settings for every build?
Just wondering if this was possible. This would be a really welcomed feature,
PS...I did try doing just that with my droid 4 running CM 10,1 with its wifi direct setting..it said it was connectining, anazingly...but nothing else after that. =/
Anyway, if anybody know if **** is at all possoble accomplish, please let me know, if you could. Thanks.
Hey there. Connecting via WiFi Direct through the Settings menu only sets up the layer 3 connection. To make a function like Miracast work, you need a Miracast-supported app to sit on top of WiFi Direct. MiraCast is a standard that is certified by the same governing body as the one that certifies WiFi Direct, so MiraCast is actually built on top of WiFi Direct. WiDi is an Intel led standard that nobody uses.
i would love to see an app capable of this be developed, it would be awesome to be able to display the screen on my phone on the TV without wires
any news about making hdmi output sound work?
Not sound HDMI?

I have a problem with the audio also. Installed remix is on windows 10, works great but only audio is send through USB speakers. I really want to redirect it to the usual internal soundcard but I can't seem to get that fixed. Does anybody know a workaround for it? Thanks.
Ditto same problem in Intel Nuc :0) bluetooth works fine but would like to use my surround sound.
Any input greatly appreciated
/S
Any updates on how to enable sound on Intel Nuc? I have the same prob. No sound through HDMi.
