N73 - lack of bluetooth data

Does anybody know why Nokia have stopped providing Signal-Strength and Battery-Status information over bluetooth for the N-series phones?
This information gets used on hands-free car-kits which have displays. I have found it very useful.
It seems that the simpler/cheaper phones all provide this informaiton, but the 'leading-edge'/expensive phones don't! Haven't Nokia got this the wrong way around?
My previous phone, 6822, provided all this information. But my N73 doesn't! Which one is the 'smart' phone?

I transfer media files between my Lumias 920, 820 and 800 all the time without going through an intermediary. Can you please provide a little more detail of the difficulty you are having in transferring files? Note that you need WP7.8 to share media files on the older WP7 phones.

  • I cannot update my n73 with my bluetooth

    i dont have a cable i only have bluetooth dongle can i update my n73 with this

    No, updates to this phone are only possible using a cable because of the large amount of data that is transferred.
    You can find compatible cables on ebay for very low prices.

  • Good phone but lacks the bluetooth parrot quality,  is it me

    The phone is able to connect to the bluetooth parrot sound is good but what it lack is the ability to have good sound if we want to listen to music while our bill of lading is being worked on, very very faint but it does work

    Totally wrong. The iPhone uses assisted GPS, not GPS direct from satellite like Garmin and other GPS positioning devices.
    The GPS chip in the iPhone processes data from the cell towers and does in fact work indoors, as long as it can get a signal, where normal Garmnin GPS devices fail.
    People have posted difficulty in getting the device 'initialised' it has taken some twenty minutes and a drive around the countryside for many of us ~ only needs to be done once, thereafter it tracks the Cell towers.
    I've taken mine to the top of mountains where ONLY satellites are available and NO iPhone GPS. Have taken mine to underground car parks where NO satellite is getting in, but iPhone HAS GPS [except where is does not have a signal at all].

  • What functions/apps affected by lack of voice+data support?

    I've been looking for an article or thread that pulls together what apps/functions would be affected by the iPhone 5/Verizon/Sprint issue of lacking simultaneous voice and data. A lot of people seem to be under the impression it would only hinder web browsing but since many apps/functions access data to work, I assume the problem would be wider spread. Wouldn't this issue also hurt the following functions/apps?
    FaceTime
    Turn-by-Turn
    Tango
    Any sports apps looking up stats
    Text or iMessaging
    Skype
    What if someone calls while your downloading music?
    Those are the first ones that popped into my head.

    I've been a Verizon customer for about 15 years. I can't say I've ever been negatively impacted by the lack of ability to do voice and data simultaneously. If I don't want to interrupt what I'm doing, I don't answer. The data connection, though momentarily interrupted, picks up again.
    By the way, text messaging doesn't use data. You can get text messages while on a voice call as anyone who's ever forgotten to flip the mute switch while on a call can tell you.
    Others may have a different experience.

  • Bluetooth Data........

    Hello All,
    I have a problem,In My N72, I have 1 gb memory Card and there are 456Mb free.
    But I'm not able to transfer data by bluetooth.
    Please tell me what is the problem.
    I think that what i had already transfered is occupying all device memory. And there is no option to save it to Memory Card from Message Inbox.

    Not entirely sure where you're getting this problem.
    The common place is with the Music Manager: you need to locate the settings in Music Manager and change the music file location on the phone to be the card.
    For messages, go to options, settings, other and select "Memory Card" for "Memory in use".

  • Use of Typecast in Receiving Bluetooth Data

    Hi everyone, I am trying to establish communication between a Bluetooth transmitter (Server) and a Bluetooth receiver (client) located in a PDA, and display the result on the PDA.  I have already setup the PDA and am able to delpoy applications to it from LabVIEW, and successfully establish pairing between the transmitter (via server address of the transmitter) and reveiver inside the Bluetooth.  The only thing remaining is to capture the data on the receiving end.  The Bluetooth transmitter is sending the datain the folllowing way:
    Header of FFFF followed by the actual 8-bit data, then a 1 second delay.  Then repeat.
    I am looking at the Bluetooth Client example given in the LabVIEW examples folder  My main question is what exactly the use of the Typecast function is in this specific program (specifically what the interger "4" wired to type is used for).  I have a slight understanding of it, that it is used to convert between data types.  I am failing to see what it is used for in this application. 
    My understanding is that the incoming data is binary, so I wrote a vi to look for the FFFF string, then capture the string after the FFFF header and extract that value.  I will then need to convert it to decimal which I know how to do, then display that value.  I will of course have to integrate it into the Bluetooth vi so the incoming string is real time   Would something like this work, or do I have to use the typecast function?
    Any suggestions on my methodology and the use of typecast in this application would greatly be appricated.  Thank you.

    The example code is set up for a protocol completely different than what you are doing, so you can't simply copy it and hope it works.  The example code expects that the other side will send a 4-byte header containing the number of data bytes that follow, then send the data.  The example code first reads that 4-byte header, casts it to an integer, and reads that number of bytes (the second Bluetooth Read).
    When you run this with your device, the first read gets your 4 bytes - FF FF 22 33 - and converts that to an integer.  0xFFFF2233 is decimal 4294910515.  So you then try to read this huge number of bytes and you get an error - looks like error 1, an input parameter is invalid, because you can't read 4GB at once.  You can probably get your code working with a single Bluetooth Read, with a 1 second timeout (because you have a 1 second delay between packets).  You'll want to wire in some number of bytes to read that is at least the size of the largest packet you ever expect, but don't use a ridiculously huge number that generates an error.  LabVIEW will return as many bytes as are available when the timeout expires, even if it isn't as many as you asked to read (you might also get a timeout error, though, which you'll need to clear).  You can then do whatever you need to do with that data - search for FF FF, typecast anything after that to array of U16, display it. 
    The output of the Bluetooth Read is a string, but it's not text - it's exactly the bytes that were sent.  The Y with the dots over it is the way ASCII 255 (0xFF) displays (at least in that font).  ASCII 34 (0x22) is ", and ASCII 51 (0x33) is the number 3.

  • Bluetooth data aquisition

    Hello everyone !
    I'm currently working on a project for my thesis and I need to aquire data over bluetooth to my PC, using labview.
    I have to say that I never used labview before and that I actualy never really learned how to use it... I read this tutorial on how to develop a bluetooth application but I'm quite confused...
    The project is an instrumented shoe containing 8 force sensors that send its data over a RN-41 bluetooth module to my PC. When the shoe is "on", the bluetooth module is automaticaly powered-up and working. My PC is supposed to: be able to power-on the shoe and to power it off; aquire the data send by the shoe and to display it on the screen. So basicaly, the program will contain one on/off button, an image of a foot with 8 color boxes (one for each sensor) changing color depending on the force applied on the sensor, 8 boxes that will display the data of each sensor.
    Thus said, and after reading the tutorial: I "just" have to creat a "client "application that will open a connection using the mac address of the bluetooth module, send/get data and display it, right ? There's no need for me to create the "server client" ?
    Like I said, I never really had any programming/developping lessons...
    Thanks =)

    Hi ThiCop,
    To answer your questions: i ment that the pic has to receive data from LabVIEW in order to transmit its data to LV.
    You have to know that the DAC from the PIC has a resolution of 10bits. 
    The PIC itself sends 16 bits to labview, 10 for the data, 3 non-used and 3 for the adress.
    So, the data sent by sensor1 will be like 1111111111 (data) 000 (non-used) 000(adress); decimal value = 1023
    Data sent by sensor2 will be like 1111111111 (data) 000 (non-used) 001 (adress); decimal value = 9215
    Data sent by sensor3 will be like 1111111111(data) 000 (non-used) 010 (adress); decimal value = 17407
    Etc...
    We calculated the values in decimal, corresponding to each sensors, and imagined a way where LV would compare each value and if the value is, for exemple inferior or equal to 1023, then it's corresponding to sensor1 and will display it value on a specific graph.
    And then, we wanted to insert an image of a foot in labview with colorboxes for each sensors, changing color corresponding with the data values.
    Hope the flowchart will help.
    Best regards

    nope definately not in the same place, im in Sweden he seems to be in the UK.
    i am actually noticing a lot of "freezing" as well. when the phone goes into sleep mode it will not come out of it.
    also when i go into some different menus the phone will just "hang" there forever.
    i have to take the battery outr to get this fixed.
    i never had any of these problems before this release.
    i hope that they release a fixed update very soon, or i will go crazy!

  • Lack of Bluetooth Functionality Blackberry Z10 Vehicle

    About a month ago the Bluetooth stopped working on my vehicle. It would work for my wife's i Phone but not the BB Z10 and it had worked flawlessly for about  a year. It was right after i had upgraded the software. I tried it on our other vehicle and the same result. Thinking it was the phone and after talking to tech support at Rogers they sent me a new phone ($35 later - so much for warranty thank you very much). The new phone worked the first time i tried to pair with vehicle and has not worked since. In addition it would not work on my wife's vehicle. Very frustrating as i like this functionality. I was talking to a buddy of mine and he has the same problem and it occurred after software update. also. All the vehicles were Mercedes. Sad to say iPhone works like a charm and have updated the software and still will not work
    Our IT guy suggested deleting the setting and try again still will not work
    I can only think it is related to the software update. Very quickly getting to point of giving up. Have been BB user for +10 years but looking like time for a change

    Hi @BurlingtonMike 
    If possible check for a updates because we have addressed this issue in BlackBerry 10 OS version 10.2.1 MR2. To do so, go to Settings followed Software Updates. For more details check out this post in the BlackBerry Support Community Forums > http://bit.ly/1tOO6qA

  • C7 - Lack of "GPS Data" application

    On my old Nokia E66 it was "GPS Data" application (with gps data and simple navigation). That simple navi was very useful and helpful, maybe could you add it to Symbian Belle update?

    Hey, I know this one!
    Just got it the other day, it's called LeGPSData.
    Only 42kB but it works fine.

  • TS5181 iTunes Radio Bluetooth Data

    When my iPhone is connected to my car via Bluetooth to stream audio from the iPod, it displays the track information (artist, album, song) on my navigation screen.
    When i'm streaming audio from the new iTunes Radio through Bluetooth to my car, it does not display the track information. Instead it displays the last song that was playing from the iPod.
    Is there a fix for this? Or is there a formal way to submit a Request for Enhancement to Apple to they can correct this and allow the track info to be provided to the car via Bluetooth?

    Ok, I have resolved this issue myself. I contacted Apple support but they had no clue.
    The resolution is this, bring Siri up and say "radio". Radio comes up and you touch "now playing". Believe it or not the radio icon appears and remains.
    I hope that helps other folk.

  • Palm Pre lack of Bluetooth OBEX profile (NO FILE TRANSFERS!)

    Great job palm.....
    Always finding some small way to let your customers down.
    Down anyone know a workaround to get the Bluetooth OBEX profile working or at least a way to transfer files wirelessly.
    Thanks a ton (THE COMMUNITY NOT YOU PALM)!
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    that sucks.....
    my lowly Instinct could do it........and THAT wasn't a "smart" phone....
    I guess the Pre isn't as "smart" as we all thought?
    I'm sure it will be in a future upgrade.........(hopefully..)
    it seems that Palm was in such a rush to get this phone out the door, they left out alot of basic functionality that most "lower" phones have.
