Hi @all,
has any of the O2X users experiences in using the phone with BMW bluetooth hands-free equipment? Is it possible to connect the phone? Is it possible to show the phonebook in iDrive/in the Radio "Professional" (if anybody has one)?
Cheers

If the BMW uses rSAP, like for example all VW, Audi and Mercedes installations do, you'll have no luck with android because no android phone (except for the Galaxy S so far) supports that protocol.
I have a 316 touring, 2009, with idrive, works without problems.

Well, this doesn't seem to be a problem. BMW confirms on its homepage several Android devices to work in the cars. The confirmed devices are: HTC Legend and Desire, Samsung Galaxy S, Motorola Flipout and Milestone. So no problem from that side I think. I was more thinking about problems eventually caused by the LG-modified bluetooth stack.

Call lg support and ask them to adopt a propper stack.

I am sorry for this total noob question, but I understand that the nook runs on the OMAP 3621 processor and that processor supports bluetooth. My question is, did B&N include whatever hardware support is required to add Bluetooth in a future update, or will this product never have bluetooth support?
Thanks!
Jeff
Geez. . . I hate when i waste bandwidth. . . looks like some guys are looking into this in the Development thread on this forum. Should have looke around more thoroughly before posting. Sorry about that.
You folks are awesome. If this pad could gain bluetooth, it would be amazing in it's pricepoint!
BT Confirmed working on CM7
The development thread has bt working. I myself have confirmed it working, paired and successful vs Logitech DiNovo Mini and RocketFish Keyboard.

Excellent. I really hope this gets working. I'd like to see someone get it working on NF...
Bluetooth Working
I got it working, but barely...cant seem to stream music (which is the real reason I wanted it) to my stereo headset. I have the plantronics BB 903+
Bluetooth Working
I also notice that it drops the headset connection when i try to stream. I've tried music stored locally and from the cloud...same results, nada. N e body else get this going?
Nevermind.....
Just wondering whether any users can answer those questions for me?

I've just tested the WiiMote, and I can tell you - no, they don't work. Damn manufacturers modifying their BT stacks to left and right... :-(
Will probably root my phone and test that other WiiMote app that requires root. I'm hopeful for it working. Our phones is the perfect "gaming console" for retro gaming if so ;-)
Oh, what is the Root-requiring app? I've not come accross it...
*off to Google to find out*
EDIT: Ah, found it, still doesn't offer HTC/Samsung support. Shame.
Correction: Lg‘s screwed their bt stack so hard that third party software can‘t use it. its barely usable with sony ericsson liveview

so... when (im in no doubt) we get say Cm or modaco rom could we use a wii mote or bt keyboard or will it still be " locked down"??
It'll work with CM, but I don't think Paul's Modaco ROMS usually change the BT stack, so I wouldn't expect it to work there.
Call lg support regarding this they said that they hadnt heard of the issue yet. The more of us that alert them of this ****ty nonstandard bluetooth the more likely they are too fix it. When i told them how other phones with the same broadcom chip had been "fixed" with third party roms they escalated my ticket. Also please remind them that the hardware is capable of usb on the go and software that supports it is an edge in the market in theese hd days.

I've sent them an email regarding this problem. I'll call them tomorrow too...
We need proper BT drivers!
both bluez ime and gamepro in combination with a zeemote bluetooth controller work fine.
so it's not entirely impossible to work with the optimus 2x bluetooth.
The problem is that the drivers deny low level access to the hw
Btw nice to know other people keep telling lg to fix this

a newb question I guess but I havent got an Android phone yet, this phone will be in my ownage in a couple of weeks :happypanda:
wont this work with this rom? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1014929
@hobs0n: No, won't work
After talking to LG it doesn't really sound they care...
Ah shabby So the only ones that can change the BT stack/drivers are the manufacturer for the phone? like LG, HTC and so on? Does the WII controllers work for other Android phones??
Does anyone have a BGP100-gamepad and knows if that works on our Optimus 2x? As Wiimotes don't work, maybe that gamepad would be usefull... at least with a SNES-gamepad mod it would be perfect for the SNES emu.
Not the BGP-100, but the Zeemote BT Gamepad.
Both are running only with GamePro driver.
The driver freezed while trying to connect with the gamepad.
Even my BT mini keyboard doesn‘t work.
Both were running fine with the Galaxy S.
So at this time there is no way to connect gaming hardware.
And if anyone is thinking about PS3 controller. No it doesn‘t work.
The new GamePro driver is working fine with Zeemote JS1
And has support for further Gamepads:
- iControlPad
- Act Labs Gamepad
The iControlPad is to expensive, but does anyone know the Act Lab Gamepad ?
This is just sad.. !
So there is now way we can hack in a proper USB driver? or do we have to w8 for LG to release one?
I really doubt that LG will release it. After talking to them it doesn't seem they care about the problem at all...
Is this something that might be different on the more stock G2x?

Dear Xda mates,
I've got this Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin Air speakers. Very nice and cool!
However, Apple being apple, I can only use my ipod or my wife's iphone to use the speakers.
I have one desperate question only...otherwise, i might have to consider to change to an iphone (which i really do not want!!!)
--> Is there an Android app out there to be able to use the Airplay function?
I tried Twonky but it doesn't work on our beloved HTC HD2. On Twonky's website, there is a mention that it might not work on some HTC phones.
I'm using darkstone's superRAM and loving it! ...but is there a patch for this?
i couldn't find anything so far.
Thanks for all your help!

Ever found a solution for this? I have the same BW-set with a Galaxy TAB. Twonky does work without any problem, but I want to stream Radio / Podcasts as well.
Double Twist and Honey Player do not work in my configuration.

Hy there i would like to start a thread where we could share our experiences with all sorts of accessories for our aces
I have many accessories that i am using with my phone.
Firstly i will start with description of Sony ericsson Liveview, a watch like display that is connected via bluetooth to my phone and can display time and date and all sorts of informations. From incoming short messages, incoming emails, calls, rss feeds, facebook and tweeter feeds all on my wrist
This is my second android phone that i am using it with, and with android 2.3 kpe version seems to work fine. If you didnt know the device had some problems with non Sonyericsson phones, but after several firmware updates it got sorted out for many. For me it still has some rare disconnections but it seamlessly connects back when i want to access it. If you would like to know more you can read about it herehttp://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/products/accessories/overview/liveviewmicrodisplay?cc=gb&lc=en#a
Second device is hart rate monitor POLAR WearLink+ transmitter that i use with endomondo sporting program. I take my phone when i go running, rollerblading, bycicling and this program then monitors my speed, my course, hart rate, elevation etc. which i can use to analyse my progression later on. Endomondo program is avilable for free on android market, there is also a paid app which ads more options. You can order your hart rate belt from here http://store.endomondo.com/eu/polar-wearlinkr-transmitter-with-bluetoothr-193.html
aahh, sony live view seems amazing..
really want to buy one
but £48.00..?
I think I need 4 months to have that amount of money
Hy there, well i bought it last year in december and i paid 63€ around 55£ for it. It was a price premium for an early adoption but i think it was worth it, especialy after several software updates that made it very usefull. There are also several plugins that can further enhance the usability of the device, from calendar plugin, music control plugin, plugin for changing profiles etc..
That's nice..
I should have that this year..
how long the battery last..?
But I believe Ace would died first before Liveview
my only accessories is just $1.5 cheap headset

Hello everyone,
I am getting more and more information to buy an android car radio.
However, I have a question and it is difficult to find an answer : In 2019, it is finally possible to share the internet connection of my android phone to the car stereo using bluetooth?
Thanks.
Yes, it is.

I can do it successfully on a chinese vw oem-style 2017 android headunit, though it's sluggish, dead-slow.
