Did you install Samsungs KIES? (this will install all drivers for the S3, too)

Hi there, you could use a USB/RS232 converter(of proper kind), then use USBSERIAL library to get a serial port connection, useful for data exchange between Droid and PC.

Dear friends

Thank you for you advices and for your time.

Klaus:
After installing SAMSUNG Kies in PC is nothig changed. In services I have only ANDROID SMS. I have not SPP - seriál port, or something else. I am trying external bluetooth (desktop pc) and bluetooth in notebook.
Please - I must only install Kies to PC or I must do some connection for make serial port active?


Tigrot:
I am trying it via bluetooth. It is fuctioned with other mobile phones. Only my new S3 mini is not functioned
I know how to work with seriál Library (main fuctions). It is super, but I must secure first the connection...3 days and nothing...I know that trouble is smaller then it looks....

Have a good day

Have you tried to connect to this device with B4A Bridge in Bluetooth mode?

 

[petr4ppc]

Erel,

thank you for your time.

Yes I have tried it. I am successfuly connected to B4A bridge on my phone via bluetooth.

But serial port (SPP profile) I not see in services of connected device (phone)

You will only be able to convert over SPP if there is an app running on the Android device which listens for incoming connections (like B4A-Bridge).

 

[petr4ppc]

Erel,

thank you very much for your answer.

1. In my phone I must run APP as you wrote which listens for incoming connections (like B4A-Bridge)
2. Then I can use AsyncStreams

Please, it is ok?
And it is possible to do the APP which listen for incomming connections for example with standard Chat tutorial = with Asyncstreams?

Thank you very much,

Hi,

You can use Bluetooth module, like HC-06, and connect it to your PC via USB to TTL module. very easy and
handy.
The HC-06 BT module has RS485 TTL level port, that you can directly connect to the USB2TTL adapter.
Then you only set the port number as you do with any serial device.
If you need more help let me know.

1. Yes.
2. Yes.

The chat example is based on AsyncStreams.

It is Solved....

Thank you Erel, Boja, friends.

It is not neccessary to have SPP profile in PC - bluetooth services.

You must only check all of your available COM ports and one of them will be good fo connection between Samsung Galaxy S3mini and PC with Windows 7 (SPP profile is not SET fot this connection. The devices are only paired)

Its amazing
Thank you
