bluetooth

Hi, I'm working in an android app that has to "talk" via Bluetooth with a device. App has to be able to send and receive data. I started to work with BluetoothAdapter but couldn't make it work properly so I leave it for a few weeks. Now I would like to continue with that and I wonder if is...

Following the latest security update, NDNS26.118-23-12-3, my Bluetooth isn't working at all. It doesn't see any nearby Bluetooth devices during a scan, although I know there is working Bluetooth in the area. I tried using the phone's Settings and also an app, BToolkit. Any thoughts on what to try?

I have two S5's, they both have the same problem. I'm trying to find a Bluetooth headset that work with apps like Skype and Messenger and Marco Polo, as well as regular phone calls. I have tried several different headsets including some expensive ones. On all of them the phone call audio is very...

If you have been one of the many that have suffered with the bluetooth bug on the Pixel and Pixel XL it looks like Google may have issued a fix via server side update. An early bug in the Pixel was causing failed bluetooth connectivity in cars. A new issue came up later after the release where...

I have a Moto X Pure - stock - and it will no longer connect BT phone mode to any car. It worked until about 2 weeks ago and then it just stopped. It will sync with the car and I can play audio from the phone, but no calls will work through the systems in the cars - 2 audis and a chevy truck...

Little long I know, I just want to make sure I give as much accurate info. I just got my first smart watch, a little treat I got myself with a little tax return. It's a Asus Zenwatch 3 and so far I'm really liking it. After looking at, trying on, reading about, and determining what I want from...

Hey guys, I wanted to try an old dualshock 4 controller on my phone but I'm having trouble connecting it. I've deleted it off my ps4 so it can no longer connect to that. I've put the controller onto flashing search mode (I know I'm super technical with my lingo). I've put my phone's bluetooth...

The Pixel and Pixel XL seem to be a couple of the best Android devices of the year so far. As with any new device there are often issues right around the release of the device. Pixel users have already uncovered a major issue with the camera that causes a J.J. Abrams like halo effect on every...

If you are looking for a new set of quality bluetooth earbuds look no further. iClever currently has their two newest and most popular sets of bluetooth headphones on sale. I had a chance to use the BTH06 BoostRun headphones and was pleasantly surprised by the quality. In my testing I found that...

Aukey has been killing it with the deals lately. I have always been a pretty big fan of Aukey car chargers and wall chargers as their products have been high quality but also affordable. It looks like Aukey also has some bluetooth wireless sport headphones. I'll be honest these look identical to...

Friday is pay day and if you have had a pretty good week this week you are probably looking for some ways to spend that extra scratch! Good thing there are some pretty great tech deals going on right now. Here are a few of the best deals for the week. Mpow has decided to bring back another...

The guys over at MPOW decided to send us another great deal! Yesterday we took a look at the MPOW Cheetah 2nd gen bluetooth wireless sports headset. The current deal is on the MPOW Jaws Wireless Bluetooth 4.1 Neckband Headset. The headset features magnetic earbuds that easily attach and...

So I am a runner and I have a Fitbit and a Garmin GPS watch. Both sync seamlessly to apps so that I can track my fitness. HOWEVER for some reason my Note 5 will NOT connect to these devices. I can't figure it out! (I also have connect issues with my GMC Acadia) Help!!!

Ill be honest, I have not cycled for at least a few years, but I can still see the advantages to a lock with 'no key' (gotta love a product that puns with its own name). A couple of items that Nate did not mention in the video: If the battery runs out (and the lock has to be open to replace...

This may not be news to all of you, but it was a pleasant surprise to me. This projector that will screw into a light socket has Android guts. More than just a projector, Beam has a taste of home-automation to it as well. Playing music, videos and games, running full apps, and even acting as...

This one has a touch more of a personal interest than others. I try to pack as lightly as possible for these conventions, because Scoliosis and Back Pain are actually common issues for Camera Operators (granted this mostly happens to the more intense outlets that still pack around the huge...

We start these videos off with a good one. Full body tracking for VR applications on Android. Similiar to the Xbox Kinect, this little beauty (reference picture used in video because of the retail version not being complete) is smaller than the Kinect, makes use of an onboard battery, and will...

Hello! We recently bought a new car - a 2016 Toyota Corolla. The dealer showed us how to upload contacts from the phone into the car via bluetooth. Well, she tried with my DroidX, but it did not work. It did work fine for my husband's old iPhone. But, I am the primary driver of the new car...
