Android Question B4A Bridge, Bluetooth Problem

[James Costello]

I`ve just upgraded my PC, and I can`t get the Bridge working with Bluetooth. I scan and my PC finds my tablet but when I try to connect I get a time-out error. Everything worked perfectly on my old PC, and I can`t see anything I`m doing differently...

Dell Precision M6800, with B4A, V3.82

Asus TF101, B4A Bridge. V2.12

Has anyone else had similar problems?

The bridge is running and listening for Bluetooth connections, right?

I recommend you to avoid using Bluetooth mode as it doesn't support the rapid debugger and it is less reliable. If you can use wifi mode and if not then install the relevant adb driver and use USB debug mode.

Erel,

Thanks for the fast reply, the reason I use BT is the laptop is connected to my work WIFI network and my tablet can`t access it.

Anyone else have any suggestions on fixing my Bridge blue tooth connection timeout problem?

 

[Erel]

1. You clicked on the Start Bluetooth button on the device, right?
2. Can you post the content of the small logs box (in the IDE)?

Erel,

Thanks for the reply again, I managed to get it working by deleting the pairing on Laptop and tablet. Rebooted, then run the Bridge...it asked to pair and setup everything correctly. So first time, somewhere something was wrong in the pairing profile, I guess.

Thanks for you help.
