I am working with a group trying to build an Android phone controlled, soccer playing robot. It is controlled by an Arduino Uno and we have succeeded at controlling the robot through a USB connection between the Arduino and a laptop, however we haven’t been able to send commands through our BluesMiRF bluetooth adapter to the arduino from a PC or an Android phone. We followed the instructions from SparkFun for installing the sMiRF. ([https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/us … -bluesmirf](https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/using-the-bluesmirf)) We can pair devices with the sMiRF, but can’t enter command mode through a serial. (CMD is not printed in the serial and the green LED doesn’t come on, but the red LED does increase speed appropriately.)
