Atrix Bluetooth MAP check? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
Does anyone know if there is a method for checking to see if the bluetooth MAP function is enabled for a device on a Atrix? Maybe a command via a term' window, or an app?
BT MAP seems to work sometimes on my phone (for my cars SMS feature), and other times it doesnt. Unfortunately, theres isnt a setting in 'settings' that I know of, so I figure I'll have to dive in a little...
Thanks for any info or advice!

HELP needed with Mapopolis GPS settings

Hi everybody,
I do really need an extra help with my XDA and Mapopolis GPS kit. I connected everything right, the GPS antenna (Holux 210) works fine bilinking since the sats are linked, but my Mapopolis software regularly mounted on my XDA doesn't want to work. It still keep itself "frozen" searching for on COM1 port and it did not reply to any command on touch screen.
What's wrong???? Anyone can help me? Please...
Thanks so much for your help....

Not sure if this will fix your problem, but I had a similar situation with mapopolis a while ago.
I'll assume you already have your GPS set up to do NMEA at 4800 baud. Also, this process is described for PPC2002, I haven't been able to try out PPC2003 yet.
Go to the PPC settings window (Start Menu->Settings), and choose the "Connections" tab. Tap "Beam" and ensure that the box for "Recieve all incoming beams" is NOT checked. Click ok.
When this box is checked, it creates some kind of conflict over COM1 which prevents Mapopolis from connecting to the GPS. When I turned this option off, everything started working.
Good luck!

Alternative to Jetware Mobile 1.31

Has anyone seen or uses a similar application to jetware mobile to enhance the bluetooth on your PDA??
I use BatteryStatus, It can place a (bluetooth, wifi) shortcut on today....
Have a look also to Ilauncher....
With that you can have what ever icon you want on your today....
So bluetooth, wifi, shortcuts to other program ecc.....
You can also edit the icon with your own...
That is a very nice app...
Thanks for the reply but what I am actually looking for is similar to jetware which adds extra profiles to the bluetooth stack not icons, it helps with devices or bluetooth car kits that can read sms etc
Battery status does not actually add anything or extend the bluetooth stack.
I wonder if we can contact the author of the jetware extension to release the source code. He's obviously not doing anything with it anymore.
Top! UP! UP!
Yep UP! i'm also looking for a way of extending the BT stacks functionallity without having to replace the stack itself. Perhaps we really should try to contact the author of jetware
No other app in this world to function like Jetware extension?

may i ask why are you looking for a similar one and not use this one?
i am asking 'cose i found myself long time ago that is causing some problems
with the BT communication....do you have the same problems?
In my case there are some minor problems with BT connection and it also does not deliver entire functionallity that i require - like PBAP and other stuff
Same here. It's not finished and the developer just kinda dissapeared two years ago. Sooo we're looking for someone to take over. Someone please take over on this! There could be a lot of money involved. I would pay up to $100 to get this done!
I'm on the case
Also, what is PBAP?
Ok I think I've found everything I need to get started on this. Since I don't have a device to test this with, I need to know what feature you think would be easiest to implement or what feature you want the most. ie: List contacts, list messages, etc.
This way, I can focus on implementing this one thing, and once it's working i'll know i'm on the right track and can move on from there.

HI guys
Just wondering does Jetware 1.31 work well enough with car kits? I tried my Polaris with the Alpine KCE-350BT and it doesn't work so am about to test it using Jetware. Just wanted to know do you need to run Jetware each time or just for the initial phone book upload? Once the contacts are uploaded i think it should work properly without running Jetware correct?
Just can't really place anything on the today screen or a shortcut, so interested to hear if there is anything else better.
thanks,

this didn't seem to work on my HTC TC.
Anyone else close to a working alternative? I really need something to replace OBEX and use the PBAP format to upload contacts to Alpine car kit.
Are there any registry fixes or does WM6.1 get around the problem as claimed by MS.
Cheers,
I can report that theJetware 1.31 works perfectly on my Orbit II with Parrot 3200LS car kit (use the Disable Synchro phone profile and then send contacts via Jetware).

How do you go about disabling synchro phone profile - is it the same with touch cruise?
I never really 'got' Jetware. Do you just need to send contacts once to the car kit? Also i assume you are meant to toggle bluetooth on/off using the Jetware shortcuts, not the normal bluetooth??
Thanks- i'm going to go bakc to the shop and test it now i've got a 6.1 Rom on, as the OBEX was a problem so perhaps with this turned off in adv. config. it may work (fingers crossed).
When you go to pair the phone on the Parrot, you should see 'Disable Synchro' in the list of phone types available. Select this and then proceed with pairing. Once paired, you can go into the Jetware extension (Contacts area) and Send all your contacts. The huge plus is that if you use automatic synch, you will get duplicate entries for every phone number held for a given contact. If you use the Jetware Extension to send contacts, you get one entry per contact, with all the numbers correctly identified as mobile, home, work.
Then when you dial, you say the contact name, then 'home' or 'work' etc. If you use voice dialling this is essential, otherwise you have to record every number individually (voice tag "John Doe home", "John Doe work" instead of one tag "John", then "mobile" or "home" when prompted for number type).
I hope that makes sense, but since your message is two weeks old (sorry, haven't been here for a while) you may have it figured out.
AFter all that, it seems the developers at Jetware have given up. They don't respond to email and the link to purchase the software is broken/dead. That's a bummer as I have lost my activation code and just got a new phone....

Thanks for the reply - I have never seen this option of 'disable synchro' anywhere on the phone, jetware options or on the car kit interface.
It seems to be working well enough now, but the phone book did get corrupted and couldn't fix it till i paired another phone then mine again. (contacts were mixed up - some first name last name, and didn't show /H or /M for home or mobile etc but seem ok now).
Part of it could be having to be patient with the Alpine BT kit, as it takes a while 'updating' on pairing to copy all the info again. Still doesn't work as fast or as reliably as i'd hoped, but probably good enough. May not have this phone forever, but don't want to get another one yet.
It's a shame they aren't supporting their product any more. Hopefully someone else could improve it or write something better, as the one annoying thing now is that i can't put the phone into sleep mode when i press the button - keeps powering back on to full lit screen, every few mins which wastes the battery as well as distracting when the phone is in the car mount- now i just have to lock the device as a workaround.

[FIXED] Any way to hide mouse pointer when using bluetooth keyboard?

Whenever I connect my mini bluetooth keyboard, a mouse pointer comes up in the middle of the screen. The keyboard doesn't have any controls for the mouse (I think) and there is no way to get rid of it without disabling the bluetooth keyboard.
Does anyone know of anyway to disable the mouse pointer or hide it somehow? I am on 2.3.3
Screenshot of pointer:
imgur.com/YLCIE (Can't post links)
EDIT: Changed ROM to Exynos Extreme 3.2, mouse pointer gone now
Yea, I have the same issue... Anyone know of a fix?
Not a fix as such ...
I have one of the cheap EBay bluetooth keyboards but I don't have this problem. In other words, my keyboard identifies itself to the phone just as a keyboard, your one obviously claims to be a mouse as well.
I'd say you have 2 options:
Maybe, just maybe, somewhere in Settings -> Wireless and network ->Bluetooth Settings under Bluetooth devices, you will be able to modify the settings for your keyboard: Press and Hold the device and click on options. I have a tickbox for "HID device" only - you may have something else for pointing device?
Maybe your keyboard has a mouse-type device on it. Assuming there isn't a obvious d-pad somewhere, maybe it's a 2-key combination involving the use of some "magic" key along with the arrow keys. If you can figure it out, then just move the pointer out of the way, and you're good!

Unfortunately I only have one profile in the bluetooth settings as well. There is a D-pad on the keyboard on the WASD keys but when using them all it does is cycles through the context menus.
Is there an app that would allow me to control the mouse pointer by touch or by binding the directions to keys on the keyboard? I've searched but found zilch
I have exactly the same problem on a galaxy s 1 with gingerbread and would love to know of a fix. I tried to find an app to move the pointer to the right edge of the screen but I couldn't find anything.
I have the exactly same problem as you all. I've got a Samsung Galaxy S with Android 2.3.3 on it and a keyboard which identifies itself as "Bluetooth mini Keyboard" (cheap from ebay). It works as it should, but there's this annoying mouse pointer in the middle of the screen and I have no idea how to disable it -.-
I guess I'm just going to have to invest in a decent keyboard/controller until this issue is resolved, does anyone know of any good ones specifically for NES and PS1 emulators and the like
I've fixed this now, if anyone is having the same problem I noticed the mouse does not appear when using the Exynos Extreme ROM.

Great to hear that there is a fix for this...
But as that ROM is for SGS2 owners I just wounder if anyone got
rid of this issue on a SG I9000?
Would be great with an easier fix than flashing with a specific ROM,
evnt though I think I'll do that if that's the only route to go!
(running DarkyROM 10.2EEF ATM)
Thanks in advance!

Apparently the mouse pointer is hard coded with samsung roms. There are a few non-samsung roms out there that have a pointer.png in the framework.apk that could be edited, but unfortunately samsung roms do not have this png. I've scoured several apk's in the system folder and none of them have it. I've also searched and installed every possible app in the market that may have been able to move the pointer, but none of them worked. They were mostly wifi apps to control a PC mouse.
I've been trying to resolve this issue for weeks and have come to the conclusion that no one knows or cares to take the time to figure it out. I even got in a fight with someone because he felt I was the only one with this issue and was complaining that there wasn't a fix.
There's a bunch of bt keyboards out there that cause the mouse pointer to appear, so there's a strong chance that someone with some technical skill will be able to resolve it someday...probably after the "official" gingerbread release. In the meantime, try to find the cheapest bt mouse you can get your hands on and move it out of the way.

[Q] Bluetooth Pairing Request

Hi all,
Having a little issue and was wondering if anyone could come up with a work around. I am currently using my Razr with a Pionner appradio 2 running ARLiberator. Everything is working great except the bluetooth pairing request. Everytime the device attempts to make a secure connection with the Razr it ask for a pairing request on the phone that last for about 2 seconds. I have attempt to automate the accepting of the dialog with Tasker but the dpad action is too slow to hit the "Pair" button in time. I have also tried using Keyevents through execute plugin through tasker with the same results. I remember on my Incredible 2 that I could set a device as "trusted" or something like that so it didnt ask every time I connected. I havent been able to try CM9/10 or AKOP because the Appradio requires HDMI to function.
Can anyone come up with a way to automated accepting the Pair request, or does anyone know where I might be able edit a file to set a device as "trusted" even through the menu option isnt available through blueooth settings?
Thanks,
Cyro

[Q] Bluetooth loses connection with Mercedez-Benz COMAND hands-free

My wife has a 2008 Mercedes-Benz ML63 that comes with the COMAND system. She just moved from her trusty iPhone 5 to a GS5. Previously had no issues automatically connecting her iPhone to her car's OEM hands-free system. With the GS5, it won't automatically connect at all. As well, when she manually connects, it takes a few times before it will actually make a connection. Once connected though, it seems to work OK.
Has anyone else had similar issues? I searched around the net, and found articles with other brands of OEM bluetooth units, but there aren't a lot of answers.
At this point, the fact that her phone has such difficulty connecting to her car, she's tossing around the idea of reverting to her iPhone. I'd really like to get this solved, and keep her on Android if at all possible. Thanks in advance.
UPDATE: Here is the manual for the device: http://www.wireless4mb.com/user_manuals/Bluetooth_Cradle_USA_SLR_Web.pdf

Weird. It works fine with my car (not command). For the most part, all the oem units work best with iPhones though.
In the car's settings, has she deleted her iPhone and made sure that the "connect automatically" option is checked for the S5? I don't know how MB does it, but there should be an option like that for each phone.

Thanks for the response. The system in these earlier models isn't that sophisticated. It works a lot like how a Bluetooth portable speaker works - it remembers the last 8 devices that connected to it, but you can't manage that list. I'll have to see if there is a way to force it to forget all of the devices - I didn't see anything in the documentation.
Thanks for the idea.

Ah okay. There must be a way to reset it. Have you tried this?
From a random website.
you reset the system by pressing the "SYS" button to the left of the screen. It results in the first photo below. Then, select "Diagnosis" - that will take you to the second photo, which has a "System Reset" selection.

It didn't work. That appears to be the method to reset the COMAND system (DVD, Satellite radio, AM/FM radio, Navigation, etc) altogether. I'm still trying to figure out a way to just reset the bluetooth adapter.
