Good for you.

I've honestly seen jb around lately, and nothing new on the BT front - but last I did hear from him he's close to either public testing or just straight submission to the tree. Not sure, he'll probably test it tho before commit .

MMS
Internal Memory

Bluetooth is a major portion of a phone these days. Besides MMS, the above list is not very essential to typical daily use. I'd rather have BT then a working camera personally.

But good things come to those that wait!

I believe the bump app works via bluetooth, when I was booting my rodum400 as "touch pro" incorrectly the bump app worked with my brother-in-laws samsung android

Actually, I think that Bump just works using your data connection and accelerometers. So sadly, Bluetooth is not working still.

Looks like possible Bluetooth progress (or rumor has it, maybe someone can verify this?):

This is a shameless bump. Anyone have any more information on Bluetooth?

It doesn't work yet, and it's one of the hundreds of things devs are trying to fix.

Yeah i am aware it doesn't work yet I am also aware the devs are working on a lot of stuff and am grateful for everything they do. Was just hoping for any information. I have seen mention of BT a few times reading through other post but was just wondering how it was coming along.

jb is working on it semi-privately... Seems like he might have the interface up and it pairs, but it doesn't route audio correctly, which we knew would be an issue because the sound code is a hacked-mess. They're completely rewriting it for .35, so it should be a lot cleaner - BT may have to wait until then anyways, as it'll be much, much easier to troubleshoot/resolve issues on sound routing.

If jb does start a public thread like he did with cam, I will certainly repost it here if someone doesn't beat me to it .
