Is there a way to make Bluetooth default to being discoverable everytime it is switched on?
I use SPB Phonesuite to have a WIFI/Bluetooth/Flight mode toggle on the today screen, but the only way to switch BT on and make it discoverable is to go through settings>connections or through the comm manager.
I normally have BT switched off to conserve battery power but when I do switch it on, it is normally to transfer files from my PC/laptop so needs to be discoverable.

Hi, í've searched the forum but can't find a tweak to make bluetooth automaticaly turn on 'making devices visible'. Now i have to set this on manually, each time i turn on bluetooth.
Is there a tweak to let the wizard do this automatically?

i dont know the tweak, but why would u want to do that? it will drain your battery, and make your device vulnerable...
you tired of going to connections tab then bluetooth?
why not try to use the bluetooth icon on the tray bar?
I'd like to start bluetooth with my profilesprogram (PPC PRofiles). It works well turning bluetooth on, but it doesn't turn on the visability. And i want it to do both at the same time.
Found the solution in the PPC Profiles program itsselve.
is there any way that when we toggle the bluetooth it will be discoverable? not only turning it on, so i dont have to enter BT setting and tick the "make my device discoverable"
with wireless manager in O2 atom, when we turn on the BT it will be already discoverable.

If you find out also share with me
I have problems with Bluetooth which I can't start.
From Comm manager if I start it it turns off after 2 seconds.
If I try from Bluetooth settings Mode, Turn on Bluetooth works the same (it turns on and then off after 2 seconds(at Timeout I have Never).
Also in Mode if I turn it Discoverable this setting is not saved.
Any solutions ?
Please help !
I use my phone with wifi for streaming video at home, if I put the phone into airplane mode and then turn wifi on I obviously save battery but then can't turn on bluetooth to use my BT stereo headphones anyone know of an app that will either just turn off the phone radio or let me turn on both wifi and bluetooth when under airplane mode.
I have spent hours in the market and tried dozens of apps but nothing lets me turn off the phone radio and not lock bluetooth off.
When i had my pixel 5, the Bluetooth automatically turned on after a few minutes of driving, i can't find how to do that in pixel 7. Options does not looks to be the same...
How can i do that or what can i use as an alternative?
Android Auto as alternative
That's why i want Bluetooth on, if it's activated android auto will connect directly.
You can probably do it in Tasker, but I am not sure how you would detect you are in the car. Constant GPS checking would be power hungry.
Assuming you have home WiFi, a partial solution would be to turn Bluetooth on when it no longer sees your router. You can even turn it back off when you get home.
