Hi, I am tired of having to got to mainscreen->settings->wireless and networks->bluetooth settings to se a list of paired devices and the name of the one that is connected. So I figured I'd wade through the morass of bluetooth widgets on the market and find one that not only turns on/off bluetooth, but also shows list of paired devices and their connect status.

Lo-and-behold I couldn't find a one!

Anybody out there know of a widget that does this (or even close)?

thanks,

I couldn't find one widget to do both. But I did find a way to do this with 2 apps.

I use QuickTooth to get to the BT settings in one click. Then I use the BT widget from the One Click Widgets set to toggle BT on/off quickly.

The widget doesn't show what BT is connected to, tho, only that it is active.

thanks, Quicktooth is a step in the right direction!

Update: Now that I've tried it, it does both tasks fine. starting it brings up a screen that lets you start/stop bluetooth as well as list devices and connect the one you want. So it's exactly what I was looking for!

I misunderstood. I thought you wanted the widget to list the connected devices too as well as to act as quick toggle.

Glad that QuickTooth solved your prob!

I would like to see a widget that toggles a bluetooth device of my choice on/off. This would be very handy for pairing devices that do not have pairing memory.

You should be able do it with Tasker.

Search for "Smart Bluetooth Widget Pro" in the market, that's what exactly your are looking for.
