Rese...@RickBlake<br />>> I don't see a problem<br />Research which examines distance between study/non-study participants - ie, medical research - needs Bluetooth to be discoverable indefinitely. Limiting it to 300 seconds - without a way of turning it back on in the background - greatly limits the type of research which can be done on this platform.<br /><br />This feature/oversight greatly impedes my own research.

The good thing is no root required - works on any Android phone.<br /><br />See:<br />http://teksoftco.com/news/10_02_26_biandroid.jpg<br /><br />[quote=Teksoft]<br />Despite the current Bluetooth limitations in the Google Android SDK, in early 2009 we've developed a first version of our Bluetooth Keyboard driver for Android. It was an OEM Project targetting a major hardware manufacturer, and it wasn't released to end users. The initial version also required root priviledges, so it needed extra skills to be used on normal Android devices.<br /> <br />Almost a year after, some considerable development progress has been made and we're now announcing the Teksoft BlueInput for Android, a Bluetooth Driver that allows you to connect a Bluetooth Keyboard to your mobile device for increased typing speed, more productivity, and a new feel of comfort gained by using high tech all arround you.<br /><br />BlueInput is an advanced HID driver that totally transforms your Android into the perfect Mobile office solution by offering easy Bluetooth connectivity to Bluetooth Keyboards. And it is ready and waiting for you to try it right away. <br />[/quote]<br /><br />This application is not free, but the trial version can be used as much as you want, but has a limitation on using the SPACE and ENTER keys.<br /><br />Source: http://www.teksoftco.com/index.php?section=blueinputandroidUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16425255735417749250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8214401912480503366.post-6949979150269114282010-02-22T16:12:22.038+01:002010-02-22T16:12:22.038+01:00I'm not hearing consistent results getting the...I'm not hearing consistent results getting the Bluetooth File Tranfer app (at http://www.androlib.com/android.application.it-medieval-blueftp-qAFE.aspx) to work.

I thought it was a general Bluetooth issue for android 1.5 but perhaps I should trial & error some different devices before I try and change the configuration of the phone. The issue for us Galaxy owners at present is there is no sight of an upgrade to 1.6 or even 2 (eclair) from Samsung which is obviously disappointing.
