Is it feasible to develope an app which has ability to share a file to another window phone 7 device via bluetooth or wifi ? what i want to share is an image, video or music.
I just want to know is it possible or not, so if u know that please help me, very high appreciated !
Currently such APIs are not available for WP7. I hope they make it available in future releases. For information regarding bluetooth read the following article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2449475
As SplashID APP is doing same thing using WIFI. We can use TCP sockets to implement file share feature. we need to send packets in small chunk.

I'm tasked with developing a fullscreen native Mac OSX (Swift preferably, as I've been experimenting with it a lot lately) application that will connect two kiosks in two different parts of the US (each with high speed hardwired internet connections) in a video chat session. The kiosks must be able to automatically/programmatically connect and reconnect in case of lost connection. I was looking into TokBox but it seems their SDK/API is WebRTC, iOs, or Android oriented, otherwise it would have been a great choice at first glance. As I understand it, WebRTC is really just meant for browsers.
Does anyone have recommendations on an SDK/API that can help me accomplish this?
You can use WebRTC and make a web app out of the website. It will look and feel like a regular appp. Take a look at Mike Kelly's Refract for a painless web app packager.
I'm interesting in Proximity Profile services on top of the BR/EDR profiles instead of the GATT. I'm talking about Windows Bluetooth Stack (Windows 7) that is not supporting BLE APIs.
Questions:
Is it possible?
Can you point me on the specific implementation?
Is there 3rd party solution that can help (I*'m talking about non-BLE radio that is shipped with Windows 7 laptops)?
Thanks in advance!
I think they're 2 completely separate things. You can implement both at the same time or just one or just the other. I think the proximity profile just requires advertising where GATT requires you to connect to a device to read attributes.
EDIT:
It helps to read the spec before answering. ^_^
Just glancing at it, it seems that the proximity thing works by making a regular connection and then sending an alert when the connection is loss. It uses the GATT to configure options related to it. So, for example, you could configure the alert level given.
As for doing this over BR/EDR, I don't know. You can access GATT over BR/EDR, but I'm not sure if that's covered by the profile. The linked profile talks only about BLE and references to BR/EDR is to compare it with BLE.
I have been recently familiarizing myself with the windows desktop sharing api, and i have a question i cant seem to find the answer to. Is it possible to build an application with the api that only shares the screen of another application that is currently running? Instead of sharing the whole desktop, just the presentation level of a given application that is already running. I appreciate any feedback. Thanks in advance.
Yes that is possible. According to the details given here you can share desktops, regions or individual applications. It sounds like regions is what you want to share.
I'd interested in sending data from one WP7 to another WP7 phone so I could create 2 player games. If I understand correctly most WP7 will support bluetooth, but its not in the minimum spec, is this correct? What API's can I use to access the bluetooth, any good examples of this out there?
Unfortunately Microsoft don't provide any access to the bluetooth stack via any documented APIs in this version of the Dev tools.
They don't seem to have any sense of urgency about fixing this (or any of the many other missing features), so I wouldn't expect the situation to change any time soon.
Does anyone know if Palm's new Mojo SDK will grant access to bluetooth APIs? Perhaps in some form or fashion? I can't get any information about it and given I have to choose what to spend my money on in regards to the the next platform for my development, I would really like to NOT waste it.
Perhaps there's some lucky PRE developmers out there who already know the answer?
Thanks!
At the moment, there's no access to the Bluetooth stack from the webOS APIs. It's possible that future versions of the system could expose them, but there's no system service for doing things like BT file transport. Currently Bluetooht is only supported for voice, A2DP playback, and AVRCP remote controls.
