Apr 9, 2013 at 19:46 comment added SSumner Well, in Android 4.1, the wi-fi hotspot ability was removed so I'm back to needing bluetooth
Feb 11, 2013 at 18:28 comment added SSumner Actually the wi-fi tether option might work. I used the FoxFi app, and its wi-fi hotspot mode works great. So I might only need to connect through Bluetooth for Arduino. Thanks!

Jun 7, 2012 at 14:49 comment added jlehenbauer of course! I root my phone primarily for wi-fi tethering, but I completely understand not wanting to go at a new phone right away :P hope the dual-BT works for you!

Jun 7, 2012 at 14:38 comment added SSumner The only problem is wi-fi tether requires (a) a tethering plan, which I am not going to pay for or (b) a rooted phone, which I am not going to do right after I get a new phone (I have a rooted phone now, but I am going to be upgrading to a 4G phone soon), so bluetooth tethering is my only option. Thanks for the answer.
