Is there any way to set up a Nexus One to access the Internet via Bluetooth DUN that is being shared from another device (e.g. a Blackberry)?
I read that something of the sort has been accomplished on jailbroken iOS using the app iBluever. I'm curious if the same can be done on Android.
Anybody?

I just rooted a phone on .5 stock firmware. Wireless tether from the market and pre 9 both install fine and start fine... but on other devices i dont see the network showing up. Is there a modified version or one that works good with stock? Thanks

it shares the network in ad-hoc mode. Android phones by default can't see that unless they have a modified wpa supplicant. Iphone's and pc's can use it, buy game systems can't either. And apparently, neither can chrome os, damnit...
I've bought a bluetooth keyboard for my ps3 and I would like to use it on my device. I pair but can't connect. What do I need??

I need something that don't require root. I am running a non-rooted device.

Interested +1
But I would also like to hear about routing methods since I'm on cm 6.1.1
Any experience with working models?

I believe it'll work for the rooted, but not otherwise; you need some bluetooth tweaks to enable host mode.
Anyone have problems getting their touchpad to find a mobile hotspot from your android phone? If not, what app do you use? I'm rooted and have tried open garden and one other that I forgot the name of. Both didn't show up on my touchpad when scanning for a wifi connection.

Ok, I'm bringing this back up because I still havent really found a way to wifi tether with my Droid X2. I have done some research since posting this thread and found out that my Droid X2 only puts out an ad hoc connection which the TouchPad doesnt recognize. I have came across a couple possibilities though.
One is a patch that modifies wpa_supplicant. Not really sure what or where that is since I just found it and havent been able to play around with my TouchPad yet. But I think that patch is device specific and needs to be modifies IF it is to work for the TouchPad. Not sure. Here is a couple links.

Another possibility and probably the easiest fix is downloading the app "zt 180 ad hoc wifi switcher" from the play store.

I will try the app when I get around to messing with my TouchPad which might not even be until tomorrow. But if anyone else tries either of these methods (or any other that works) and has success, please let me know.
Try Wifi tether for root, they have in the Google store. I have not used the latest one but if you have problems with it go to there web site and find the 3.0-pre12. I use that on my Droid Charge and have not had any problems.

I've tried a bunch of wifi hotspots apps, including wifi tether. The problem is my phone only puts out an ad hoc network which doesn't show up on the touchpad. I don't know what the Droid charge puts out.

I use foxfi and use the wifi and bluetooth options
You need an app to access the hotspot from your phone? I always just turn my phone's hotspot on and connect to it, never knew you needed an app. Interesting. Done this on gingerbread and ICS roms for my Inspire 4g.
Dunno what to tell ya... I have an SGS 2, a Dell Streak 5 and a 7 and A Galaxy Note... on all of those the only thing I use is the native hotspot tether with no issues with them putting out a signal to any other device I have
Maybe you oughta look at some type of wpa_supplicant tweak for the Droid X2, not the TouchPad, that you may need to implement to get tethering functioning correctly

Well I managed to get it working with pdanet on the touchpad and foxfi on my phone. But that's the only way it works. Weird. At least it works one way though.

Stock WebOS cannot see Adhoc networks. I'm not sure if the Droid X2 supports AP tethering.

Has anyone figured out how to use a phone's data connection as a wifi connection for the Kindle. In this particular instance an iPhone.. Yes I know they suck and I want to get rid of mine, but in the mean time... I looked into it a little bit, my phone is jailbroken, and the only app I have come accross is PdaNet, which I guess uses adroid too. I just could not get it to work so thats why I am coming here. I am leaving for a long road trip from FL to NC in a couple of weeks and I thought it would be useful. Thanks in advance!!:good:
AW: Thether..
If you have an iphone 4 or later, you can use the personal Wlan hotspot feature.
If you have a 3gs you can only enable a personal bluetooth hotspot for a PAN.
If you have a rooted Kindle you can install the Bluetooth PAN app over the Play Store.

Thanks for the reply I got it solved though. I installed an app called tetherme from cydia. Works great if anyone else is interested!
I've tried every tether app I've found and so far the only thing that works is fqrouter 2, but it's not the most stable connection.
I've tried the TrevE mod, but I can only get it to connect using Auto. Setting it to anything else doesn't seem to do anything.
It was easy on my Hero and Evo 3D, just can't seem to get it to work on my One.
I'm rooted/s-off using stock 3.05.651.6.
Any ideas?

Is there any straight tweak that will do the trick? Right now I am using Wifi Tether adhoc to my laptop, (only mode I can get to work), and a cable from my laptop to my PS3. It works, but still isn't totally stable. My laptop and phone lose connection often. Not sure why.
fqrouter 2 barely stays connected. Shouldn't there be another app or a tweak I can apply that would work better, more effectively?
