Hi Guys, I am having a bit of problem connecting my desire to my NXT when I try to connect to my phone with the NXT it comes up saying line is busy

Is there a solution to this

Hi Danim,

I have no experience with MINDdroid (dont even have an Android phone) but the frst thing that comes to mind is that something went wrong while pairing the NXT and the phone. How did you estabish the connection? From inside the MINDdroid app or do you use a pre-existing BT connection?

I have tried it both ways but still the same thing happens

@ danim: Scroll all the way down this webpage ( http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=5427 ) to do the "invoke solution". Hope it helps.

How would I go about inisating the invoke solution as that site does not say clearly

Thanks

I really don't know what to do at this point. Perhaps other AFOLs out there with Android cell phones can assist.

A better place to ask this question (and get a detailed reply that may help you further) would be http://mindboards.net/ (I could ask for you, but it wouldn't make much sense as you will probably need to supply some more info like Andorid OS version etc.)

Do please let us know if you manage to solve this issue though!

Perhaps the newly-released LEGO MINDdroid v1.2 has solved the connectivity problem.

"Now there is an updated version that gives you new features and activities.

Here's a list of what is new with MINDdroid version 1.2:

- German language included

- Improved tutorial texts, also in German

- Improved bluetooth dialog

- Improved bluetooth connection algorithm, improvements on Bluetooth connection for HTC Desire

- NXJUploader - for uploading leJOS-NXJ-apps to the robot (only enabled when the new leJOS NXJ robot model is selected).Comes with two included nxj-Files (AlphaRex.nxj and MINDGameZ.nxj).

- Control the Alpha Rex model from the LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT 2.0 set (#8547).

You can make the Alpha Rex walk, shake, talk to you via your phone, in your language, give you sensor readings and play music (on your phone).

NOTE: this feature only works with the leJOS NXJ firmware."
