As you point out, there IS no support for Bluetooth in the emulator, so there is nothing to enable. If you decide to write your own emulator and include Bluetooth support, please let us know as there are many others who would like it also. On Mar 6, 9:23 pm, Bhushan bhushanbhange...@gmail.com

I use LogCat a lot when debugging but it is an irritation that it frequently has to be reset to get the latest log output. I am only aware of two ways to get the log output when this happens: 1) Go to the DDMS perspective and then pull down the menu in the Devices view and select reset adb, and 2)
