I keep getting an error "paired but not connected" anytime I try to hook up my galaxy s/captivate to another blue tooth device (aka another phone - aka trying to send files across)
i've read numerous reports, and the last post I just read mentioned there being a fix for it if you root the phone. Could someone point me in the right direction, give me the right keywords to search, or something.
Anyone know if it's just an app, because i've been using another method to install third party apps, without having to do a root. I was trying to steer away from that, but if I must I will, this bluetooth thing is annoying.
If you have paired your car's bluetooth to more than one phone, or more than one time, the car's database will not auto connect. It won't know which pair to auto connect to. I had to delete all prior pairs then pair it one time and then it worked beautifully each time I started my car.
Hope this helps...

Ok Gear owners. Who of you that DOES NOT have native Bluetooth Internet Tethering, have you been able to get both a GPS receiver and Internet receiver to work at the same time?
I have a Note 3 (T-Mobile) and I can only connect Internet or Bluetooth. not both at the same time.
I have tried several Bluetooth GPS services on my phone, but none of them will let the gear connect at the same time I have PdaNet+ running.
I have PdaNet+ & ShareGPS running on my phone
I have BlueGPS & PdaNet Tablet on the gear
Running (Null_9)
Also what map program are you running on the gear? does it provide audio navigation?

He/she observed that only 3 parallel Bluetooth connectionw are possible with the Gear. Pretty weird limitation. I planned to confirm (falsify) it but forgot to do so. The limitation could explain your issue.

Aw I will check into that!
My question is simple, but I didn't find the answer on the web.
Let say I do like running. So is it possible to connect directly bluetooth headphones to the gear to play music while I am running and not to carry GN3 with me?
Do you not need to have the gn3 with or close to you to be able to use the gear since the gear is connected to the Phone through bluetooth?

Unless you have music stored on the watch but I'm not sure that's possible since you can only control music on your phone from the watch

No, I have Null Rom on my gear. I would like to put some music to the gear and go running with it. I dont need Note 3 with me.
That is why I ask is it possible
i own a bluetooth headset, gear discovers it but it's unable to connect.
now this might due to some missing stuff of android. i'm still on old null 11 that works well for me so i see no reason to upgrading now, but perhaps it's possible with newer version?
i would like to be able to stream music from it as well.. running with note 3 in your pocket is not really confident.
This would be nice but we seem to be limited on Bluetooth connectivity in the USA. I know that you can put music files and play them through the Gear's speaker, by sideloading programs like Apollo, it works really well.
I would like to be able to do this also. On Null rom 15 currently, have sidloaded many apps, one of which is poweramp. I can also sideload MP3's, but if I can't pair my BT headphones it doesn't do much good. Hoping someone can find a way of using BT headphones with the Gear as a stand alone.
F0mey hasn't been able to get a Bluetooth profile that works for this
You can ofcourse put music on (only 4gb storage though!) and sideload a music app
Please help me out in this
I own a galaxy gear and a Bluetooth headset , i would like play music on galaxy gear and hear it on bluetooth headset. So my question is it possible to connect galaxy gear to Bluetooth headset. Pls help me out, I'm 13 yrs old so be more specific.

You can do this if you change your gear over to tizen. I am now running tizen and have two apps for media, one called media controller (controls media on the phone) the other called media player (allows gear to run as a stand alone media player with bluetooth headphones)
I'm not sure if it will work or not but this app has let me pair problematic headsets with certain stubborn devices in the past https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=es.qrr.android.btoolkit
It's worth a shot installing on the gear and testing....
i heard Null rom unlocks the BT stack and allows you to connect to other BT devices just like a normal Android device?? is this true or we really have to move to tizen?

Null does allow pairing with some bluetooth profiles such as hid. I've successfully paired and used a bluetooth keyboard and mouse with the gear. However a bluetooth headset, speaker or headphones requires a2dp profile. This is missing in the android version but available with tizen.
I'd love to have this function working with null as the hardware is obviously capable of it. I'm not prepared to give up null for this function as it would mean giving up lots of other functions I enjoy. I'm guessing you'd need to add the profile maybe from porting from a compatible Rom but that's way beyond my ability.
Ah thanks for clarification, sadly this is the main reason I buy gear one, to direct stream music to Bluetooth. Well, let see..

did anyone managed to pair it with Null?
Im surfing all over the net and there is no other way to do it unless you install stupid Tizen that has close to none of awesome abilities like Null. Is there any way to pair the gear 1 with headphones and run it like mp3. Or is there a way to have dualboot for gear 1? Having tizen and null and beingable to pick up booting aint that bad and it would do the trick

sorry to disagree but i like tizen. how many hours you gear can last with null? fyi i tried null for few days long time ago, so apologies if the battery life is now improved. but i like tizen, battery life is probably the best amongs android gear and apple watch. plus i can connect direct to bt headset. and tizen has camera
Loong enough

Up to 3 days if i dont listen to music on it. Anyway i dont like Tizen becosue i dont have any chance to install google browser, no youtube, mxplyaer, Rocket player, Facebook Lite or anything. When im at work i cant sneaky check anything on phone becouse i dont want to risk to break my phone but i can go with watch and since it has a nice BT range its usefull. But when im runing i dont want to holde huge ass z3 in my pocket again and pair it with headphones since i already have a bt capable device that can already play music with awesome equalizers. Rocket Player is one of the best out there and unless someone finds a way to get Tizen to instal all the aps that im using, there is no way ill instal that rom. Way to useless curently
Hi people,
I am facing a problem that is driving me crazy and i need all the help i can get.
I have flashed my Gear 1 with TizenMod v2.0, but what i am saying also applies to stock Tizen versions NF1 and 700XXUCNE9.
I have set up the watch by connecting it with an HTC One running the GearManagerStub as we all as the Gear Manager according to the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2780493
Everything (that can work on an unrooted HTC One) is indeed working.
However, i want to use the Tizen Gear 1 with my iPhone 5S.
So i go to BT settings on the Gear, turn BT off (so that it disconnects from the HTC One) and then make it visible.
I then search (and find) the Gear from my 5S settings and when i try to pair the two the Gear pops up a message saying that it need to reset to factory defaults before it connects to another device. If i let that happen and then try to connect the iPhone, it does indeed connect as a Handsfree device but other than that i am locked in the video splash screen with directions on how to connect. That means that i cannot use the watch at all, apart from the basic handsfree functionality.
The odd thing is that i have been using the watch (stock Tizen 700XXUCNE9 ROM) with my iPhone 5 and a 5S in the past (meanwhile i downgraded to Android for some tests) and i cannot remember having that problem.
I also tried to connect the Gear (after being set up with the HTC One) with an iPhone 4 (no BLE support) and it DOES CONNECT without presenting that God damned "reset to factory defaults" message!!!
I know that the Gear (Tizen OS) does indeed work with the iPhone 5S. I have done it myself (see this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2789095) and there is a thread on the Gear 2 forum where member @skeamznz claims the same http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2722069), therefore i am not (completely) crazy and imagining things.
Can someone help regarding my issue? Could someone with a Tizen running Gear try to connect to an iPhone > 4S and get back?
All help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much in advance!!
Anyone?
--bump
Found it at last! I had installed the Air Blue Sharing Cydia tweak which is apparently somehow messing with the BT stack. After I uninstalled the tweak, I was immediately able to connect to the watch.
Just in case anyone is interested.

[Q]is there a way to stream music from a galaxy gear with a Bluetooth headset?
Yes. The gear has to be on a Tizen release. Then you can load music onto the gear and pair the gear with Bluetooth headphones, or an external speaker and rock on!

Yes- I am on Android using Null_Rom. This gives you access to your internal folders like Tizen, except you have the freedom of Android. I sideloaded Rocket Player (music player app that works well on the Gear) and can easily connect to a BT speaker.

Rocket player with android on Galaxy Gear lets you stream media?
Hard to believe that no one figure this out yet
galaxy gear pairs with headset but doesn't give a option connect to device
looks like its missing files
Thanks for your reply!
I gave this app a try but it lacks the files needed to establish a connection.
after looking into the matter ive notice that Galaxy Gear is missing connection files.
It allows to pair with headset the same way as phones but You can not tap on the device lables (even the phone) in the bluetooth menu to connect to the device the way normal bluetooth connection works .
I tried installing bluetooth fix app, the app gave me error message that the GGear is missing bluetooth folder.
I know alot of people would like to see this function working on Galaxy Gear without going to Tizen, if we could get a Dev to give us hand or if we get some insight on how the bluetooth connection works would be a step forward in getting this to work
i will bookmark this, currently waiting shipment for GG1.
i do hope can play abit with the stock rom, and then root, install null, before jump to tizen. i really need this function bluetooth streaming because i cant carry my note mobile while jogging with my bluetooth headset. so unless there is tweak to make bluetooth works on android, i need to use tizen.
anyway, i heard null rom has bad battery life, if you stream mp3 would this make the battery life even worse?
