[Q] BT Tethering when locked - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

BT Tethering works great, however, the connection only works if if the device is unlocked (i.e., no keyguard/PIN was entered).
This is pretty annoying (since I want to be able to connect when the device is off).
Is there any chance to change that?

Reverse Tether BlueTooth?

Any one know of a way to do this with the TP running CM7?
Work doesn't have wifi but my pc does have bluetooth.
So I would like to use my works internet on the TP connected using bluetooth (if possible of course)
I would like to us my TP at work if possible.
I would like an app if possible but if there are only commands then what ever works is fine.

[Q] cm7 reverse USB tether plus wifi tether to produce non Adhoc?

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?

[Q] BT tethering

Anyone gotten BT tethering to work with this particular tablet?
I got a rooted CM7 moto atrix that defo works via bluetooth DUN/PAN (to my laptop). However, when I pair it to my Sony, I don't get ANY options to do anything other than unpair.
wifi tethering of course works fine but I'd prefer BT -less battery drain, don't have to manually dig out my phone to toggle off/on, etc.

[Q] bluetooth tethering

anyone got bluetooth tethering to work?
I have an Atrix on Cyanogen Mod 7 which allows my laptop to bluetooth tether to it, so I know it can do it. However when I pair my Sony Tablet to it, I don't get any options to do anything, let alone tether.
e.g. when I pair to headphones I get option to use as audio etc. but with my phone, i can only pair, I can't do anything else and no options / uses are presented.
what are you trying to do with your phone/tablet via bluetooth? Seems like it would be easier over wifi. If you're trying to tether via bluetooth that won't work, and beside bluetooth data transfers are super slow.
the advantage is that I don't have to manually toggle wifi hotspot on and off on my phone. I can just leave bluetooth on (on my phone, I also use BT headset so I leave it on anyway) and connect at will.

Sending via Wifi Direct, Bluetooth, and Screen Mirroring doesn't work

Hey guys,
as it says in the title, I can't cast my screen via Screen Mirroring (Smart View, Smart Things), nor can I send files via Wifi Direct or bluetooth. My phone does try to send, but somehow fails to receive the pairing permission from the receiving device.
Strangely, I can receive files just fine via both methods, and both wifi and bluetooth are working flawlessly otherwise. I can e.g. pair and access bluetooth audio devices, or gamepads without problems, and my wifi is working as intended when I'm accessing the internet.
I'm on a stock rooted RG8 firmware. Does anyone have an idea what might be causing this issue?
