I picked up a SGT from Verizon and am having trouble with bluetooth. It won't pair with either a Jabra or Motorola brand headset. I can get it to pair with my Apple Bluetooth keyboard, but it won't connect. It just says "Paired", but does not function. I'm using Skype and GV on this and would love to be able to use a bluetooth headset. Is this unique to the Verizon model? Has anyone else had better luck with a T-Mobile model?
Thanks!
Apparently vzw left the bluetooth HID out (unlike tmo). So the vzw tab can pair with keyboards and mice, but cannot connect to them. There are hid drivers in the market, but I haven't tried any yet. I have a bt keyboard on order. I tried a mouse,it paired fine but wouldn't connect. There have been many reports of this.
BT headsets haven't had any issues that I have heard. My moto s9hd paired and connected the first time and has been ready whenever I have needed it.

I have the T-Mo version and I can connect and pair BUT...
Audio from the other person plays through the BT headset and your voice is via the Tab's microphone... I put the Tab in another room and made a call and all the other person could hear was the TV in the other room.. Once I walked back and picked up the Tab they could hear me...
TMO Profiles?
I have a Sprint Tab and it pairs but refuses to connect. I'm wondering if there's some way to extract the TMO drivers from the device, and stick them elsewhere. Also, I don't know a lot about the bluetooth driver architecture. What exactly is it missing? The kernel drivers for it? Or some other thing?
I had the same trouble with my Jawbone and Think Outside stowaway keyboard.
I called Verizon about this and the tech told me they had no profile for headsets or HID. They have stereo headphone support for music.
Very disappointing that they would do extra work to remove functionality, but I'm certain a good rom will become available that fixes this Verizon blunder.

What I'm reading is that Android doesn't actually support BT HID in this release. I'm still wondering if it could be extracted from TMO or some of the European releases and pushed with ADB.
The other thing I'm wondering is about CyanogenMod. They've had an experimental bluetooth HID thing that's been working decently, or so say the posts, for a few months now. I'm wondering if it's a high enough level of abstraction that it could just be put variously on any device, as long as the processor architecture was the same (or is it up in the java level so that doesn't even matter?)
I know nothing, to be honest, but wanted to just advance a few questions. Not sure how many people are actually interested in BT HID, but for me, it's a dealbreaker for whether or not I hand this device back in.
I've had the same problems with my Verizon SGT. Verizon apparently deleted some Bluetooth drivers. Why? I don't know. This is the only problem I have come across with my tab. If anyone knows of a driver that will connect Bluetooth devices to the SGT please reply. I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks
Trying to bluetooth tether the Cappy to Xoom but can't find an option to do it. Mobile AP works but I would like to have bluetooth tether due to better battery life. Any solutions? Running Continuum 4.0.

When I am using a Bluetooth earphone, and turn on the WIFI, the WIFI will be turned off by itself after several seconds. And then the Tethering or hotspot is active. If I don't turn on the Bluetooth, it won't occur.
So, I think maybe the Bluetooth can make the Tethering or hotspot to be active, and then force turn off the WIFI. That means I can't turn on the Bluetooth and WIFI at the same time !!!!
Have anyone ever met this issue ?? Anyone who knows how to fix it ?
I have a rooted XT1052 which is used solely as an in car OBD2 reader and WiFi hotspot (for my Android car stereo head unit). It seems to have a problem whereby sometimes when the WiFi hotspot is activated, it repeatedly turns on and off the WiFi hotspot. The only way to get it to work is to reboot the phone.
Here's a video showing the fault:
Any ideas how to fix?
Hi,
I've tried looking in tasker but cannot find the mobile hotspot toggle state. Does anyone know how to enable both? My car has an android head unit and requires data and Bluetooth connection.
I'm going to point you to a tasker forum thread that should cover the bases for you: Launching hotspot when paired with car bluetooth
