Is there a way to disable the remote sim protocol on the S3? My carkit (RNS510 premium from Volkswagen) connects via this protocol but it's not the preferred method. There is a workarround, i can manually disconnect and then connect to the carkit via the phone (i think it connects via a2dp or something), but it's bit of a hassle. If I could just disable rsap my carkit will automaticlly connect via the other protocol (like it connects with an iphone)
If your phone is rooted you can rename /system/lib/bluez-plugin/sap.so. This should remove the SAP profile from your phone. Perhaps you have to repeat the pairing.

I am so happy that rSAP is available now - before I had to root and install 3rd party software. But usually you can decide while pairing which mode you like - at least my Audi asks which connection mode I would like. Maybe you have to unpair first on both devices and the pair again.
Out of interest: Why is rSAP not your preferred method? The phone itself uses less energy, reception is better due to the build in antenna and also the phonebook features are available in the car.
The only reason for me would be the lack of data connection on the phone which is only true if your car does not provide the Wifi Hotsport function - with this my S3 is connecting to the Internet and also the car has access for online traffic info, Google Earth, etc...

Grrr, why it does not want to work with MMI on A7? and he wants have disconnected, doh
I made the update, but nothing. It fails after the request of 6 digit PIN (indeed, I had 16 digits on my old BB Storm). Also with that 3rd party app, it doesn't work... what car do you have and what did you exactly to make it works?
Thanks.
Oooh...which firmware version did rsap support come in?

Hi there!
My name is Andre and I installed a Volkswagen Bluetooth kit with the remote SIM feature.
As I paired my Galaxy SIII with the kit, my phone asked me a couple of things that I auto answered yes...
The first one was about giving permission to access my SIM.
After that my phone always entered in remote SIM mode with the kit.
Today I remade the pairing and when my phone asked to enable access to the kit for my SIM... I answered NO (and checked the box "do not ask me this again").
Now me, my phone and my car seem to be understanding each other.
Hope that this was of any help,
Andre

Sometimes I want my Galaxy S2 to connect to my carkit (Nokia 616) using the normal HFP (not using rsap), so my phone doesn't loose its internet connection and I can use Google Maps etc.
However, since the Nokia 616 has no way of disabling rsap, I have to disable rsap on the phone. Does anybody know of a way to disable rsap on the Galaxy S2 so it connects using HFP with my carkit?
Any luck with finding a solution?
I have been trying to find a work around to this since June, can't believe there is no option to disable remote sim mode in either device... We must be the only people in the world struggling with this because there is nothing out there... emailed Samsung got no reply, called Nokia and spoke to the most unhelpful support person i have ever dealt with...
I did read in the Nokia 616 Manual however that in order for remote sim mode to work you need to have an external antenna connected... so i am going to try and disconnect the external antenna in the hope that the 616 recognises that its not connected and disables remote sim mode... its a long shot but im at breaking point...
I'm struggling to believe there is no command line method to disable or remove rsap on a rooted galaxy s, if I could get a lead at least i would look into it myself.
Found a way

Hello, i use bluetooth for tethering my Prime with my Desire HD because it consumes less battery than using WIFI-Hotspot. The Problem with this was that the Transformer does not automatically connect to the phone when enabling bluetooth.
So i wrote an App that does exactly this. It reacts on the bluetooth_state_change broadcast and then connects to the phone. The App uses some hidden Api-Calls but seems to work well.
Since i don't have a market account yet, i thought it would be a good idea to upload it here. I attached the apk and the source.
Please comment!
EDIT: Seems to work with any bluetooth device, see posts below
EDIT2: This version is outdated. Please search "Bluetooth auto connect" by refluxa in Google play. I can't post any links here yet. Also it only works with Honeycomb or higher.

THANK YOU!!!!
This is very nice. I tried it and it works perfectly with my GNex, which I've basically been using constantly because wifi sucks. BT tether is the way to go.

Hey thanks. Works great. I use it in combination with bluetooth headset Jabra bt3030. So simple yet so effective.
Maybe you should rename the thread. It's not only good for tethering as you can see
Hi,
sorry for my late answer. Thank you for the comments. I'm glad to hear that it is useful for you, even though i don't know why it works with headsets. I explicitly select the Bluetooth PAN (Personal Area Network) Profile.
Also i registered a developer account now and i think i will publish it there in the next days.
Looks like a very promising app. I tried it, but it crashes periodically on my AT&T Galaxy Note when I turn bluetooth on. Also, the bluetooth connected devices appear disabled - they are a very light color on a white background.
I'd love to help with this, let me know if you need more info or assistance.
Please see updated first post. You will have to wait until Samsung brings your device to ics.
Hello, I have SGS2 with ICS ROM. I have installed Bluetooth Auto Connect from Google Play because my phone doesn't want to connect to my BT car hands free automatically (manual connect always works). The auto connect app shows the name of my hansfree but the selection is unfortunately disabled. Can you please enable also other BT profiles (not only PAN) in your application? It can be very useful for another BT devices too.
Is there any way this app could allow for multiple device selection and have it recognize a "friendly name?" (if you rename the device in your BT panel)
This works great for me in my car to connect my BT, but I have a second transceiver that I use in my house that is identical, so it has the same name, and the software seems to randomly pick one of the two when BT powers up.
Allowing checkboxes for a multiple device selection to start up the BT connections would probably be enough for me, as then "random" will get both every time.
I just updated the app. Now it has support for Tasker / Locale and Multiple Devices!

I just found this great app trough a post on the Tasker forum and installed it immediate.
I noticed that if you manually start the app it will ask you to enable BT, but is you use the Tasker plugin it doesn't enable BT.
Of course you can enable BT using Tasker before using the plugin, it would be nice if the plugin had an optin to enable BT.
Beside that, thanks for this great app/plugin.

Hello,
i will have to ponder on that because tasker / locale developers say that functionality that is already offered by their programs should not be reimplemented in plugins. On the other hand i also see that some users have problems because they do not know that they have to enable bluetooth first. I think i will add a little notice at least.
Have you got a guide (or a link to one) to setup bluetooth tether (HTC One X to Transformer) so I can use this app?
Do you need root on the phone to do it?
Hello, sorry but i just overlooked your post. In general its a good idea to do the whole stuff manually once. First you have to pair your devices and enable bluetooth tethering on the phone (On my non-Sense-Phone: Settings -> More... (in Wireless & Networks Section) -> Tethering and mobile Hotspot). Then on the tablet open the configuration dialog using the button with the three controllers beside the entry of your phone in the bluetooth dialog. Select "use for internet connection". Go back to the previous menu and click on the entry. Now you should be able to use the phones internet connection. This is the point where the apps come into play: The auto tether app enables bluetooth tethering on the phone after reboot (is disabled automatically) and the auto connection app simply initiates the bluetooth connection when enabling bluetooth.
Fantastic app! So useful in conjunction with tasker
I was wondering if there were plans to add a complementary feature: i.e. the possibility to autodisconnect a specific BT device. I'm looking for an app that allows me to do that via tasker to be able to toggle my BT headset connection between my phone and my tablet. I don't think any app can do that yet?
Hello,
it has disconnect functionality now (Version 0.6)!

Hello, thank you for your app.
Unfortunately it crashes to me. I set it up so to connect to a joypad (that is, the iPega controller mentioned here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2033780 ).
When I turn bluetooth on, "unfortunately the application has died unexpectedly".
Just reporting.
Thank you very much
How can I reverse tether my Android phones to my PC via Bluetooth? Is this even possible?
PC is running Windows 7 x64. Phone is an HTC HD2 running JellyBean AOSP from NAND. I know Wifi would be easiest, but this is a work PC and company policy is we are not allowed to run our own Wifi networks.
I managed to connect the HD2 to the PC via Bluetooth with a PAN network, it only worked when I turned on Internet Tethering on the phone. However, this makes the HD2 into the server and PC into the client so PC can use phone's internet connection. I need the reverse! I need HD2 to be the client, PC to be the server. I found a Bluetooth PAN client from the Play store, but it can't connect via PAN to the PC. I assume because the MS BT stack only has a PAN client and not server. Is there such a thing as a PAN server for PC? I've looked at Widcomm and Bluesoleil BT stacks, but neither specifically mentions having a PAN server.
I found this tutorial that sounds promising, using DUN instead of PAN:
http://bluedunapp.blogspot.com/2012/05/bluetooth-tethering-for-android-devices.html
It's for reverse tethering an Android device to another Android device. Looks like BlueVPN on the Android side will do what I want, be a DUN client. However, similar problem to PAN, I can't find a DUN server. It's apparently not built into the MS BT stack either.
Is it even possible to reverse tether an Android phone to PC over Bluetooth?
Only other idea I can think of is to use an intermediate device as a bridge. USB reverse tether a phone to PC, and use phone's bluetooth tethering abilities to tether my bluetooth phone to it. Really round-about way to go about it though.
not exactl but it works
hi i cant find out a way to connect through bluetooth but i found some apps which can connect your mobile to internet through usb connection
but it requires root access
1.ReverseTether.Trial in google play
2.just search for "reverse tethering galaxy y in google" and select first link from "galaxyyarchive,info" worked for me but dont know about other phones
sorry i cant post links right now
bye

So far there isn't any app that does a reverse tether through Bluetooth. Only Wi-Fi @ usb tether are currently possible.

Unfortunately, I couldn't get this to work. I tried using "Bluetooth PAN for Root Users" on the client phone and it wasn't able to see the Bluetooth connection on the phone which has a Bluetooth tethering checkbox. However, my PC with bluetooth dongle was able to make a PAN connection to that phone, so I guess it's something with the "Bluetooth PAN for Root Users" which isn't compatible.
There's a way to do that using USB Tunneling. An xda member has done this, and I'm using my PC's Internet connection on my HTC Desire with a USB cable. The download below will possibly work for any phone... I'm not taking any credits for this tool and app. This belongs to someone, and I downloaded it, but can't remember who made this. Anyone who knows, please correct me...
I've actually been using that tool for awhile. Its official post is here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1371345

Does the android phone BT stack even support the PAN client role? I guess it may not be there. Could you clarify??
I don't know, I'm going to guess not.
I used to setup Windows on a Broadcom/Widcom bluetooth stack/driver to do this Bluetooth Reverse Tethering for Android - no rooting or apps required. Phone needs to support Bluetooth network access feature - no rooting or apps required as this is a standard/implemented protocol - Samsung S3, Sony Xperia V, Nexus 5, Nexus 4 support it, etc. To check, a phone that supports "bluetooth tethering" would likely support the "bluetooth internet access" (which is "bluetooth reverse tethering") feature. So, as an easy check - on your Android, go to Settings > More… > Tethering & portable hotspot - Now look for a “Bluetooth Tethering” item - if it is available, there’s a good chance that your device is compatible - but if you can’t find it, your device is likely NOT compatible.
As a roughly remember - the steps are like:
1. You need to enable the "Network Access Point" profile in the configuration and you'll get a new "network device"
2. Then in the control panel, go to the connection list, then ctrl-click the new bt-network-device and your LAN ethernet network device - right click and choose "bridge" to bridge it with your LAN.
3. Try pair android phone (which has the bluetooth "internet access" feature) with pc then if all is well, you'll see the bluetooth settings button for your computer - "If this inner settings page has the “Internet Access” item and checkbox shown".
If you tried on the Broadcom stack and still need help - I might try make a blog post with detailed screenshots someday if i can get some free time...
Okay, now I have a new PC running Windows 8.1 which has built-in Broadcom bluetooth, and a different phone, Motorola Droid Mini XT1030. I've installed the most recent WIDCOMM stack.
I'm able to connect a new Bluetooth PAN network device, but there is no "bridge" option. There are for other devices like the PC's built-in Wifi, but not for the bluetooth.
Am I missing something?
I've also tried using USB Reverse Tethering using an old phone as a bridge, but that doesn't work either.

Hi ykasidit,
could you please provide more detail explanation on how to enable the "Network Access Point" profile in the configuration to get this new "network device"?
Hi,
I have many devices that connect via bluetooth to my Nexus 4 (4.4.2) and when I enable bluetooth i have to wait until it connects (and i disconnect) or fails to connect to the last connected device - which takes too much time.
Is there a way to disable auto-connect when enabling bluetooth? I would simply like to select a device after ive enabled it.
I searched here and elsewhere but could not find a soln.
Thanks in advance.

This issue is still ongoing.
My Phone is connecting to the HiFi when I turn on BT to receive a call with my headfset. It's really bothering. Bad Google nerds.
When you restart the phone and turn on BT, it is not auto connecting ... until you try to connect a device.
So I think the last conncetion attempt is stored somewhere temporaly and it is repeating on and on.
I can't believe that there is no fix for this bad issue available since years :-(
This sounds interesting about autoconnect.
But I am not a programmer :-(

In my previous article I extensively discussed the topic of scanning. In this article we’ll look at connecting, disconnecting and…

As I have my phone on me at all times thought I might be able to use it as a trusted device for the tablet? Supposedly lollipop supports android use as Bluetooth LE peripheral but I can't seem to get them to connect in a normal fashion?
I have this working with my LGG2 (running CM11). In order for it to work though, you have to pair the phone to the tablet, then share the phones internet connection. It doesn't seem to be a good solution, as the devices only connect when manually selecting "internet sharing" in the BT phone settings on the tablet.
I'm also trying to accomplish this. Anyone else have a solution for how to use you phone as a trusted device to unlock your lollipop tablet?
As long as I manually established an active Bluetooth connection (by using an app like Tablet Remote) it will stay unlocked, but how can we get a paired trusted phone to establish a connection to a tablet without some sort of manual intervention?
Thanks.
