Found a Shortcut to Activate Bluetooth on the TyTN II

I don't know why its done this way? But Bluetooth is one of the easiest way of sharing files and music with friends and its found on nearly all mobile phones these days.

But it takes me close to 5 to 6 clicks in order to activate it and to make it visible to others! Really really really irritating!!!


You would have thought that the basic functionality of switching on the Bluetooth should be right on the Today screen, so that anyone can just click on it and then have it running, and connecting to your bluetooth headset.


When i installed the Wisbar Advance 3, (will blog more about it another day) i thought i would have found the answer to the Bluetooth functionality. However despite its 1001 applications for launching, setting and communication, it lacked the "switch on Bluetooth!" SIGH!!


It was only today when i was browsing thru some Phone forums when i accidently discovered a new tool called the "Today Radio Device Toggler". Yups it doesnt sound really fance and it doesnt really have that drawing factor. It also has another name - "EFFComm plugin"


Best part its a FREEware plugin that you can download it from the internet (links below). If you look at the Capture Screen below, you will see right at the top of the Today Screen you have THREE functions:
1) Bluetooth OFF/ON
2) Wi-Fi OFF/ON
3) Phone OFF/ON
Its really cool and saves you lots of time from running here and there trying to switch on your Bluetooth button! :) Enjoy it!!
