日産カーウイングスとGoogleアンドロイドスマートフォン
— アンドロイドのスマートフォーンとカーウイングスをお持ちの方々に。 私はHC510D-A/WのカーナビとソフトバンクのHTC Desire（X06HT)を使っています。電話、オペレーターサービスと音楽はBluetoothで動きますが、データサービス（Google マップ、最新交通情報など）は使えません。 カーウイングスのデータサービスをご利用するには、普通の（対応している）携帯電話ならBluetoothで使えますが、アンドロイドや、iPhoneや、スマートフォンはそのままでは使えません。なぜなら、BluetoothのDUN (Dial Up Networking)プロフィールは設定してないからです。 Bluetoothは色んなプロフィールがあります。例えば、友達の携帯にBluetoothを使ってファイルを送るとBluetoothのOPP（Object Push Profile)を使用します。Bluetoothのヘッドフォンなら、A2DP（音楽）か、HSP（電話）を使用します。 HTC Desireで、オペレータサービス（通話の方）はHSPだからOKです。それに、音楽はA2DPだらか、Bluetoothで携帯からの音楽も車に聞けます。データサービスを利用すると、DUN (Dial Up Networking)プロフィールが必要です。 PDANETと言うアプリをインストールすれば、DUNプロフィールを使えるようになる。そして、携帯とカーナビをまた、ペアリングして、データーサービスを使えます。
