I just posted the same thing lol
There is an app on the market that says it works but I dont want to spend money on something that should already work.
the application is called Bluetooth GPS Provider
I used an app call bluetooth gps mouse to connect my external gps unit. Worked great.

Thx for replies. I'll probably will get one, seems like sammy have problems fixing gps.
So, as this solution do not require hacking, etc. we could add this into general or Q&A.

I switch on my P7300 Tethering to share my 3G network, my S3 connected. However, my S3 not able to get on the Internet.
but my P7300 3G is working just fine on Internet access.
Anyone know why & howto fix it ?
Try foxfi in the market, it's free.
I tried. This app simply call the native Tether from Tab, no it is not working.
I also tried Baracle and Wireless Tether for root users, they only works for ipad/iphone. My S3 come not even search it.
anyone get it working ?

How do you transfer files using WiFi direct? It's failing when I'm sending files from s3 to TX

have you tried NFC and turning on android beam?????? this should fix your issue
Android beam is sending thru bluetooth, not WiFi Direct
Not working
I have tried almost every possible way to use Wi-Fi direct on my Xperia TX but in vain.
The hardware is indeed included in the phone but I wonder if there is software back up for the same.
Generally whenever you click on wifi Direct option, there are functions to rename your wi-fi direct device name and few others. All of them are missing with Xperia.
I have tried using the feature in sync with Samsung Galaxy S II, LG L9 and Bravia Tablet. All I can see is that connection is established between the two units but send / receive doesn't work.
It feels irritating to see that a flagship product of a company like Sony has these glitches. In addition, there is no available support on this issue on Sony website neither anywhere on web.
I wish that some senior here helps us resolve this topic.
Thanks & regards,

ICS or JB?
In my ICS version, i can't see any options when I check 'Wifi direct'.
I read sony forum, sony's system UI doesnt provide sending/receiving file via wifi-direct.
U have to use apps which can send via wifi direct.
What are these apps?

I want anybody that know how or trying to learn how getting bluetooth tethering working on the Galaxy gear to post their methods on how they got it to work. I tried every way possible with no success. Only way I haven't tried yet was flashing a international Rom.
So help is needed and please let's play nice with each other. I want this on my phone Asap. Don't post links to other threads because I read them all. Lol

Well I got it to work with pdanet but a little slow and screen start flickering. Also won't let me sign in to the play store and battery drain super fast. Start to think it's not worth it.
If you guys want me to post a how to leave a comment below. But keep in mind better ways should come in the future.

Already a few threads for this. Either use a rom with Bluetooth tethering, or use pdanet with wifi turned on in network spoofer (xposed module)
(all require null_ rom as stock does not include tethering profile)
Bluetooth internet is slow in general regardless of device

WiFi direct isn't working on any of our custom Roms, as far as I know. However, a good substitute is Software Data Cable https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.damiapp.softdatacable, it works like WiFi direct. You'll need to install this on both devices, this app can also transfer files between your Android and PC.

i meant, how do you use it, is it by qr code or ip address?
FTP. It works similar to WiFi direct and Bluetooth. 1 device starts a share network using its own WiFi hotspot, the other picks up the hotspot and joins the network. Then you get a browser to share files at good speed.
This does not use your data. If you're worried about it, you can turn off your mobile network and try it.
