    What are you trying to do with the the connected devices? The bluetooth profiles supported are very limited and do not, for example, allow file transfers between the devices. Other than personal hotspot (sharing the phone's cellular internet data connection) I can't think of a supported use -- and that is only available if your cellular internet provider and plan allow that use.
