I have a CDMA Sprint Touch Pro, which turns on flight mode and kills the bluetooth when the battery is low. I like to always leave my bluetooth on, but if the battery gets low and the device turns off my phone after enabling flight mode, I have to manually turn on the bluetooth again. But sometimes I forget to do it, and if someone call me while I am driving, my bluetooth will not connect to my phone. Of course, I can't got into the menus and turn on bluetooth while I am driving. I know of bluetooth toggle programs like BlueToggler, which toggles the bluetooth on and off. However, I want a simple low-RAM program that I can put on the start up list that strictly turns on the bluetooth on startup (without turning on the discovery mode). Does anyone know of such a program?

When travelling abroad this week I wanted to have my phone in airplane mode (whilst in the foreign country, not on the plane) to avoid data and call charges but leave bluetooth on for my headset.
Whilst WiFi could be turned on Bluetooth kept saying I was in airplane mode and wouldn't switch. i looked at a few toggle controls off the market and the same thing happened.
Is there a solution around this?
I was thinking a custom toggle that would turn off the phone and data but leave the bleutooth alone.
I had the same experience when I wanted to use my Bluetooth Headset on the a plane. I cannot switch on Bluetooth while in In-Flight Mode.
Maybe something to put in a custom ROM. I will put a post in that section.
Possibly relevant info: Verizon Galaxy Nexus running AOKP and Franco Kernel.
So I am using Tasker, and loving it. The last thing I set up was to have NFC ReTag kick off a Tasker action that turns the bluetooth on and starts up Pandora when I touch my phone to the NFC chip in my car.
Now what I want it to do is to automatically turn the bluetooth off if there has been no connection for a minute, but I'm having some unexpected behavior. Specifically, it will turn the bluetooth off, but then the bluetooth comes right back on again.
First I have two profiles called Bluetooth Connected and Bluetooth Disconnected. All these do are to detect if there is a bluetooth connection, and then write the state to a variable called %BTCONNECTED ("on" if connected, "off" if not).
I have a third profile called Bluetooth Autooff that is kicked off if the bluetooth is on. Then it does this (using pseudocode here):
Code:
if %BTCONNECT matches "off"
wait 1 minute
if %BTCONNECT matches "off"
turn blutetooth off
end if
end if
I have tested it using a wait time of 10 seconds, and I can see it turn the bluetooth off, but then it immediately comes on again. Anyone have any ideas?
Hi,
I'm very happy with the smart connect app and I love all the options you can set up, but it seems it's not working properly when setting up my car's bluetooth as a trigger of an event. I just created an event that whenever the phone connects to the car's bluetooth handsfree, then the phone data connection, volume, and brightness are turned off, and once disconnected from the car (when I get off) all get turned on again and the bluetooth switches off.
All is working properly except for this last action, the bluetooth never is turned off and I have to do it manually. I've tried several configurations with no luck... any workaround or the app is faulty??
Thanks for your help!

Hmm, which Rom are you using ? And if GB, did you try ICS ?
I am not sure why it won't work but maybe it's set by default that way!
Hi,
I've created a tasker profile which simply checks if I'm near the Bluetooth in my car, if so turn bluetooth on, wifi on, and bluetooth volume up to max. This all works fine, however it doesn't stay connected. After a few minutes the bluetooth gets turned off (not just disconnected) and I can't understand why. If I manually turn it back on, it will reconnect with the car immediately. And I think that if I leave it long enough for tasker to re scan, it will re-connect by it's self (I've not check this thoroughly).
Any idea what I'm missing here?
Thanks
Is there any way to get the bluetooth always on when i switch On the phone? It is very useful the phone to be able to connect to the car or to my Xiaomi mi band, without having to turn Bluetooth On all the mornings (i use to power off the phone at night).
When I turn ON the phone, it always boots with bluetooth switched OFF
Yes it disables all hardware when shut down. U have to re enable them on each boot
