Bluetooth discovery

I have a problem, when I do a discovery device I find for example one device, if I turn off the device and repeat the discovery I still find it, how can I do to eliminate this? Have I to erase the cache? And how can I do if it's so?

Please HELP ME!

Bluetooth discovery issue in iPhone4

Am having iphone4 unlock version purchased in US and using the same in India. I could never get any of the device discovered in my iphone, ive switched on the personal hotspot, and bluetooth as well.
Even my ipod is not visible/discovered in my iphone4. But ipod recognizes the iphone4. Strange.
till now unsuccessful discovering any device in my iphone. Any help is really appreciated.
Am in India and please let me know how to get a replacement if this issue is not resolved. I dont want to have this much trouble after having paid to get a phone worth 800$
My iphone is having latest ios5.0,1

The iPhone does not support bluetooth file transfer. You can not pair it with another phone or iPod or a computer. You can tether via Personal hotspot, but that's a different animal.
In short, nothing is wrong. You can't do that.

Bluetooth discovery issues

I have a Jabra 350 which I successfuly paired with my iPhone. When I turn Bluetooth on in my phone's settings, and then turn on the Jabra, the phone doesn't "discover" it; it just keeps searching for it.
Any solutions?

If you've already paired it then that's all you have to do. It will remain paired until you select it and choose "Unpair". The reason you keep seeing the twirly gizmo is because the iPhone is continually looking for other bluetooth devices. What I have to do a lot is once my bluetooth device is on and of course I've turned on bluetooth on the iPhone, is press the button on the headset for it to call the last # dialed, then the iPhone recognizes the headset. Most of the time until I do that, it acts like it's not paired, but it is. After that, then I don't have any trouble with it at all.
You should see your device listed when you go to bluetooth area on the iPhone. Across from your device listing, you should be able to see the word "Paired". If you don't see that, then something went wrong in the pairing sequence.

10.10.2 wifi bluetooth conflict

Hello
My MBPR 2014 mid 13" updated 10.10.2, but my wifi problem as before.
Each time when turn on Bluetooth, wifi speed become very slow. then if i turn off bluetooth, the wifi speed back to normal. how can fix it ???
Thanks !!!

So far, so good. I went from to 10.10.2 and it worked well for a while. Then my ISP provider began having connectivity problems and many errors. This seemed to trigger bad behavior in my Apple networks. Soon my network was back to a crawl.
One symptom I haven't seen reported is that once in a while when I woke my Macbook Air from sleep characters were coming from somewhere that kept filling up my password entry. I had to turn my keyboard off and go through Bluetooth discovery in order to get that to stop so that I could log in. A conflict between WiFi and Bluetooth could explain it.
In any case my network came to a crawl this evening again. I turned off my Bluetooth devices so that I could use my network. Found this post, chased the link, and it seems to have resolved my problem.

HT204387 what is the bluetooth pairing default code to connect to bluetooth device (car).

What is the bluetooth pairing code to connect to bluetooth device (car) for iphone 4 w 7.os

first you must put your iphone in the discover mode by going to bluetooth on your phone which places it in discovery mode. Them you must go to your car's bluetooth discovery mode and place it in discovery mode. If the phone sees the car and visa versa, the car will give you a code to place into your phone. Once you put the code into the phone the two will be linked. Make sure that your car has "automatic" link set so that your phone will link every time you turn on the ignition. Refer to your car's manual for more help or go to your dealer, they should be able to help you or even do it for you, but you need to know how to be able to discover and then link bluetooth devices yourself because every bluetooth device uses the same discovery formula especially if you want to use your IOS devices to play music through your system using bluetooth.

Bluetooth device detection

Hi everyone!
(I am newb at Java, and im looking for a very simple application (i think), but im not sure how to find what im looking for, i tried sourceforge.net, but i dont know how to run the java source files.)
What im looking for is an app for PC that searches for bluetooth devices in the area, and logs their MAC address into a file (preferably .xml)
It should continuously search for devices, and update the .xml file everytime it finds a new device, or an old one dissapears, so i always know what devices are in the area at this excact moment.
Have you ever heard of such a thing, or do you simply have some good keywords for me to use :) Either way i would be very thankful for your help! :)
Cheers,
Lars

Ok, here is my code a bit more formatted:
public void run() {
lock = new Object();
while (!done) {
doSearch();
    try {
    thread.sleep(DISCOVERY_LATENCY); //2000ms
    } catch (Throwable t) {}
* Start a new Device discovery
synchronized public void doSearch() {
try {
//get local bluetooth device
local = LocalDevice.getLocalDevice();
//get discovery agent
agent = local.getDiscoveryAgent();
//start a new Bluetooth discovery inquiry
agent.startInquiry(DiscoveryAgent.GIAC,this);
//we lock the thread and wait the end of the current inquiry
synchronized(lock) {
    try {
    lock.wait();
    } catch (InterruptedException e) {}
} catch (Exception e) {}
*We detected one bluetooth devices
public void deviceDiscovered(javax.bluetooth.RemoteDevice remoteDevice, javax.bluetooth.DeviceClass deviceClass) {
try {
// get the bluetooth MAC address of that device and remove any white space
String value = remoteDevice.getBluetoothAddress().trim();
if(checkTable(value) && doneDetection == false)
doneDetection = true;
launchHotSpotPage("test");
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("BLUETOOH ERROR");
* The bluetooth discovery inquiry has been completed
public void inquiryCompleted(int discType) {
local = null;
agent = null;
//We unlock the thread in order to make a new discovery
synchronized(lock) {
try {
lock.notify();
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("BLUETOOH ERROR");
lock = null;
lock = new Object();

Bluetooth simulation between J2SE server and J2ME client

hi there,
I have a working bluetooth client/server application (using BlueCove), with the server on a PC (the PC has bluetooth hardware) and the client on a mobile telephone.
I wish to move the application to a bluetooth simulated environment, however.
To simulate bluetooth between 2 mobiles, I could open 2 instances of the WTK simulator and the mobiles will find each other -- but this doesn't meet my needs. I wish to simulate the bluetooth environment between a J2SE server and a J2ME client.
Can I do this using the wireless toolkit? Does anyone have other ideas?
thanks,
Manoj

OK - I have the solution.
My PC (server) code used BlueCove to talk to the bluetooth stack. The trick is to use Sun's own KVM packages. This creates a virtual bluetooth device on your machine, shared by the WTK emulator.
Here's the server code:
package com.encube;
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.io.InputStream;
import javax.microedition.io.Connector;
import javax.microedition.io.StreamConnection;
import javax.microedition.io.StreamConnectionNotifier;

public class Server {
     public static final String UUID_STRING = "A781FDBA229B486A8C21CEBD00000000";
     public static final String SERVICE_NAME = "BTCHATSVR";
     private StreamConnectionNotifier server;
     JFrame jframe;
     JTextArea textArea;
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          Server svr = new Server();
          svr.doWork();
     public void doWork() {
          this.jframe = new JFrame("BT Server");
          this.jframe.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
          this.textArea = new JTextArea(6, 20);
          JScrollPane jsp = new JScrollPane(this.textArea);
          this.jframe.add(jsp, BorderLayout.CENTER);
          this.jframe.pack();
          this.jframe.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
          this.jframe.setVisible(true);
          startServer();
     public void logMessage(String message) {
          this.textArea.setText(this.textArea.getText() + message + "\n");
          this.textArea.setCaretPosition(this.textArea.getText().length());
     public void startServer() {
          LocalDevice local;
          try {
               local = LocalDevice.getLocalDevice();
               local.setDiscoverable(DiscoveryAgent.GIAC);
               this.logMessage("max of "
                         + LocalDevice
                                   .getProperty("bluetooth.connected.devices.max")
                         + " connection(s) supported");
               String url = "btspp://localhost:" + UUID_STRING + ";name="
                         + SERVICE_NAME;
               server = (StreamConnectionNotifier) Connector.open(url);
               this.logMessage("waiting for connection...");
               StreamConnection conn = server.acceptAndOpen();
               this.logMessage("connection opened");
               InputStream is = conn.openInputStream();
               byte buffer[] = new byte[1000];
               while (true) {
                    int numChars = is.read(buffer);
                    String s = new String(buffer);
                    logMessage("received from mobile phone: " + s.substring(0, numChars));
          } catch (Exception e) {
               this.logMessage(e.getMessage());
}You need to include the location of WTK as the kvem.home define. If its installed in c:\wtk22 (the default), start the server with the parameter -Dkvem.home="c:\wtk22". You also need to include these 3 libraries:
c:\wtk22\wtklib\gcf-op.jar
c:\wtk22\wtklib\kenv.zip
c:\wtk22\wtklib\kvem.jar
That's it for the server. My code of the sample client (the mobile phone, running in the WTK emulator) is messy (sorry about that -- still cleaning it up)!

...and that's it. Start the server, then the client (all on the same machine) and you've simulated bluetooth between the 2.
To get the server working with a real mobile, you'll need to use the BlueCove library instead of the 3 WTK jars (and can remove the kvem.home directive as well). The rest of the code should remain the same (haven't quite tested that yet!).

Bluetooth discover VI dosen't work !!

hi
I want to use bluetooth communication in LV 2013. in first step I want find other bluetooth machine in my local.
I use this Function buut it doesn't find any bluetooth device. I turned on my phone bluetooth but LV cannot found that !!
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

ajapyy
did you try to Decrease your Time Limit i made my time limit (ms) is 10ms and put it inside the loop and it works perfectly . also make sure that your mobile bluetooth is dicoverable..
Note:
The optional input parameter, time limit (ms), specifies the length of Bluetooth inquiry. The default value is 10 ms and the maximum value is 30 s. If time limit is less than or equal to zero, the function returns a list of installed local Bluetooth devices.
Note: Bluetooth discovery is a slow operation because of the communication involved. A Bluetooth device address is a fixed address that is usually printed on the actual device and you can query the address from the device control setting. This address is unique to each device. If you know the Bluetooth address of the specific device you want to connect to, you can skip the discovery process and use the Bluetooth Open Connection function to connect to the device directly.
Thank you & Best regards

Bluetooth keyboard needs constant pairing

So I bought a wireless keyboard last weekend as well as a Graphire 4 pen tablet which included a wireless 2-button mouse with scroll wheel. Once I set up the keyboard and entered the code, everything worked fine. Installed the Wacom tablet and it also worked just fine. I shut down the computer and upon my next start up, the keyboard didn't work and the Bluetooth symbol indicated Bluetooth was Not Available. The Bluetooth discovery window opened automatically and was looking for a mouse. When I selected "go back" and chose keyboard, Bluetooth wasn't able to find the keyboard. I shut down again and before restart, plugged in my original wired mouse. Now Bluetooth finds the keyboard and wants the pairing sequence to be executed again.
Are there any known conflicts between the wacom tablet and the wireless keyboard?
Is my computer automatically assuming that I have a wireless mouse because it can't find my USB mouse?
It seems the only work around is to never shut down the computer - only put it to sleep. Any suggestions??

Hi, Peter!
Sorry to hear you're having trouble — particularly with such a cool new toy!
I'm relatively familiar with Bluetooth issues in the wacky world of Macs — but not Wacom. So I did some research [1] that may prove helpful. I found a number of issues with Wacom drivers — but none that identify a conflict with an Apple wireless keyboard.
But before we wade too deep into that, I have a few questions/suggestions, primarily for clarification — but one may help. Depending on whuzzup (please post back!), we can discuss further troubleshooting steps to try, if necessary.
(1) Keyboard. You didn't mention the model of Bluetooth keyboard you purchased. Was it an Apple wireless keyboard? This may be a factor in any compatibility issues.
(2) Icon. What Bluetooth icon did you see in the menu extra that you considered "Bluetooth Not Available"? Here are the symbols and their intended meanings.
(3) What Bluetooth module are you using? Did you order your iMac G5 with Bluetooth as a CTO extra (internal Bluetooth module) or are you using a D-Link DBT-120 (Rev B2) (or other) adapter for your Bluetooth connection? If the latter, please post back to discuss if none of the other suggestions help.
(4) Are your Bluetooth drivers and software current? Please check to confirm that your Apple Bluetooth Firmware and software are updated to versions 1.2 (Bluetooth specification no.) and 1.5, respectively, for your model. System Profiler »» Hardware »» Bluetooth and »» Software »» Extensions/ Frameworks can help with this. According to Wacom's KnowledgeBase Article 332, the Wacom Graphire4 Bluetooth pen tablet is compliant with specification 1.2.
Wacom issued a newly updated Driver 4.95-1 for OSX for your tablet on Feb. 14, 2006. If you don't have this, or have any doubts about its installation — the new driver is described in this product bulletin, and available here. Wacom Article 335: "Why doesn't my tablet work after upgrading to Mac OSX Tiger 10.4?" explains how to un-install previous versions of Wacom drivers, and how to install the new one.
(5) Bluetooth Preferences and the Bluetooth Setup Assistant (BSA) can be a little confusing at 1st, and may suggest a "ghost" connection problem.
The BSA "auto-open" is a Preferences setting; "Mouse" is the default in the BSA Select Device Type window. (It's not automatically indicating what failed to connect or pair.)
Go to System Preferences »» Bluetooth and check to confirm that the settings match your objectives. At the »» Settings tab, I suggest that you de-select "Open Bluetooth Setup Assistant at startup when no input device is present" and select the others. [2] From what I can glean in Wacom's KBase, the auto- option for the Setup Assistant (BSA) may get pretty frustrating — because of the tablet's wake/sleep behavior. (We can discuss this later, if necessary.) You'll still be able to initiate "Setup Bluetooth device..." readily from the Bluetooth menu. While you have the Preference pane open, check setting in the Devices and Sharing tabs, too.
If you haven't already, you may want to contact Wacom tech. support in Vancouver, WA, USA at 1-360-896-9833 (Dial 4).
That's enough — too much? — for now. Please post back to share your progress. I found a few other ideas you could try, if these suggestions don't do the trick.
HTH!
Regards,
Dean

Can't pair up my Samsung WEP410 bluetooth headset with my iphone

I am able to pair up my samsung bluetooth headset with my other phone. Once I try to connect it with my iphone, my iphone just showing searching forever.
is there anybody know what's going on???
THanks

I have the same headset and paired it successfully using these steps:
1) Put iPhone in bluetooth discovery mode (Settings > General > Bluetooth > On). While on this page your iphone will have bluetooth visibility on and will search for devices.
2) Put your samsung headset in discovery mode by holding down the large button for 10 seconds. You should see a constant blue light (not flashing).
3) Your iPhone should detect the headset and ask for a pin code, enter 0000.
4) Your headset should now show as being paired with the iPhone.

HT3621 So why can't you tether an iphone 4S to an ipad 3 LTE via bluetooth?

I have a iPhone 4S (VZ) and an iPad 3 4G (VZ) as my primary devices. I've had both devices for some time. Neither device can see the other in bluetooth discovery, yet ANY other bluetooth enabled device can tether to both devices and use data tethering. Android, windows 7, linux, phones, tablets, desktops, laptops...these all work perfectly when tethering to either device's data connection via bluetooth. I've seen this issue across all iphone 3G or better + ipad combinations.
And yet... these devices are able to tether to each other via wifi... and recognize that they are tethered to other Apple products. iPhone to iPad and iPad to iPhone tethering over wifi works perfectly.
Very strange, especially considering Apple's own list of bluetooth profiles indicate that this shouldn't be an issue for any generation ipad, or iPhone 3G or newer.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3647
Aside from a full list of device profiles, this is also listed:
"Personal Area Network Profile (PAN)
Personal Area Network Profile provides network connectivity over Bluetooth. With iOS this is common with multiplayer games and Personal Hotspot on iPhone. See this article for additional information.
iPod touch and iPad with iOS 4.3 or later support Internet tethering from an iPhone with iOS 4.2.6 or later, through PAN. "
OK!
To me this indicates that tethering should work. One way at the very least. (ipad to iphone)
Please give us an official response on this issue Apple.

I was trying to share my 3G connection from my iPhone 5 (6.1) and my mba (10.8.3)
Maybe I have a solution
1-Pairing
Turn on bluetooth on the iPhone
Turn on bluetooth on the macbook
activated and detectable must be on
"+" to add a device
choose the iphone
follow the instruction
On the iPhone appears a notification showing the same pairing code as the iPhone
Choose Pair (or the left handside button, I haven't got an english iPhone)
On the macbook, you receive the confirmation that the pairing is ok - but the iPhone won't connect !!
2-Connecting whatsoever !
Just in case I reboot the iPhone but I don't know if it matters
Turn on the bluetooth on the iPhone (must be on, on the macbook too )
The macbook must show on the device list of the iPhone
Click on it
The famous notification appears ! "Can't connect..." - DO NOT PRESS any button leave the iPhone like this
On the macbook, choose the bluetooth icon on the status bar.
Choose iPhone
Choose connect
There you are ! Connected !
Just press Home button on the iPhone and do whatever you do with both device.
Later on it appears that the connexion doesn't need this trick anymore . But you need to connect from the macbook end. It doesn't work from the iPhone
Hope it helps

IPhone 4S bluetooth not discovering bluetooth devices

My iPhone 4S bluetooth is not discovering bluetooth devices, specifically my new Platronics Voyager Pro HD headset which worked just fine with the iPhone 4 even after the recent software upgrade. I noticed that others are having bluetooth discovery issues as well. Will Apple be addressing this problem with a software fix or is this a hardware problem?

Nevermind! It always helps to re-read the Platronics - how to pair your device instructions. DUH!!!!

Excel transfer using bluetooth

hi,
i need to send excel file from smart phone to labview using bluetooth. once the file received, it need to be analyze. i have no idea on how to send the excel file using bluetooth in excel. can anyone help?

Hi Varsha88,
I would suggest you to check out this link which explains how we can develop bluetooth applications with LabVIEW.
http://www.ni.com/white-paper/3260/en/#toc2
Maybe you can refer to the link below which teach us how to interface LabVIEW with smart phones via Bluetooth.
http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/How-to-interface-Labview-with-smart-phones-android-via-Bluetooth/td-...
Generally for setting up a bluetooth connection is making sure that we can detect and acquire the appropriate bluetooth adrress for your device from your LabVIEW.So you need to be able to configure your device address in Android OS settings.To get started, you may refer to the link https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-7981,, try making use of the Bluetooth Discovery LabVIEW to detect your devices within range.
Besides that, you may refer to this article which teach us how to make a bluetooth device work with LabVIEW.

Bluetooth LG Soundbar not recognized

It connects fine with my iphone 4s and 2 ipads, but mac mini won't even see it. Any thoughts?

Mac Mini Intel models come with mini-Toslink connectors through the headphone port which could be connected to the audio input port of the LG Soundbar.
G4 models only have line level output and Bluetooth.
Bluetooth streaming might be possible if there aren't any drivers required, but you have to enable Bluetooth discovery mode on the LG Soundbar. LG would have instructions to do that. Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Bluetooth lets you enable a Bluetooth menu where you can connect to devices that have discovery mode enabled.
USB on Mac Minis typically requires driver specific connections to USB audio devices, unless they are HID compliant.

IPhone 4 / Bluetooth / Windows 7 / Peripheral Device not installed?

I am unable to install my iphone 4 to the new laptop I have, OS Windows 7. The devices pair fine and recognize each other, I just keep receiving error messages when the driver automatically installs. It reads "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" not installed. Any solutions???
Thanks
-Jonny

I realise this is an old topic, but it seems everyone has the wrong band-aid fix.
The correct fix is as follows:
The issue is that Windows doesn't recognise the iPhone as a Bluetooth Peripheral Device and cannot find the correct driver to download and install.
Follow the following steps:
- First, you need to install the appropriate 'Windows Mobile Device Support' software for your version of windows (32 and 64 bit versions have different files to download). It may look like it didn't install in Windows 7, but that's ok. It did.
- Turn on the bluetooth discovery mode on the iPhone.
- Select 'Add a Device' in Devices and Printers, follow the instructions to connect and enter the 8 or 9 digit key into your iPhone.
- Your iPhone should be found and automatically install all the software and drivers except for the Bluetooth Peripheral Device driver.
- In Devices and Printers, right click the iPhone, select properties, and then the hardware tab.
- The first device function should be 'HID-compliant consumer control device. Ensure it's selected.
- Select Properties, and in the next window select 'update driver'
- Select 'Browse my computer for driver software'
- Select 'Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer'
- Select 'Bluetooth Radio' from the left hand side listing
- In the next window, select 'Microsoft Corporation' on the left, and 'Windows Mobile-based Device support' from the right side.
- Install this option, clicking through the warnings and accepting this option.
- Now you have the device driver installed, and your iPhone will be connected via Bluetooth when you need to pair it - great for file transfers and internet access without turning the radio on.
I hope this helps. This is the proper fix. Not the 'pressing two keys at the same time' or unchecking the option that only allows some features to be used.
