Abstract

A method for establishing a Bluetooth® connection, a mobile terminal, a Bluetooth® device, and a system, where the method includes establishing data connections with at least two Bluetooth® devices, obtaining a voice connection instruction, where the voice connection instruction includes identification information of a target Bluetooth® device selected by a user from the Bluetooth® devices, and establishing a voice connection between the mobile terminal and the target Bluetooth® device according to the voice connection instruction. A voice connection is established with a Bluetooth® device selected by a user in order to improve an extent to which a Bluetooth® connection is established intelligently and a capability of interacting with the user. Therefore, the user can, according to needs, freely select a Bluetooth® device with which a connection is established, thereby improving convenience of the user in using the Bluetooth® device.

Claims (32)

1. A method for establishing a Bluetooth® connection, comprising:

establishing, by a mobile terminal, at least two data connections with at least two Bluetooth® audio devices;

sending, by the mobile terminal, a prompt instruction to a plurality of Bluetooth® audio devices, which the data connections have been established, via the established at least two data connections upon receiving a call;

obtaining, by the mobile terminal, a voice connection instruction according to a user input on the mobile terminal, wherein the voice connection instruction comprises an identification information of a target Bluetooth® audio device selected by the user input from the plurality of Bluetooth® audio devices that received the prompt instruction; and

establishing, by the mobile terminal, a voice connection between the mobile terminal and the target Bluetooth® audio device according to the voice connection instruction.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the prompt instruction comprises ringing.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the prompt instruction comprises vibrating.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the prompt instruction comprises light flashing.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the prompt instruction comprises emitting a smell.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the data connections are Asynchronous Connection-Less (ACL) connections, and wherein the voice connection instruction is a Synchronous Connection Oriented (SCO) connection instruction.

7. A mobile terminal, comprising:

a processor configured to establish at least two data connections with at least two Bluetooth® audio devices;

a receiver coupled to the processor and configured to receive a call;

a transmitter coupled to the processor and configured to send a prompt instruction to the at least two Bluetooth® audio devices via the established at least two data connections, wherein the prompt instruction is used to instruct the at least two Bluetooth® audio devices to prompt a user that the call is received, and

wherein the processor is further configured to:

obtain a voice connection instruction according to a user input on the mobile terminal, wherein the voice connection instruction comprises an identification information of a target Bluetooth® audio device selected by the user input from the at least two Bluetooth® audio devices that received the prompt instruction; and

establish a voice connection between the mobile terminal and the target Bluetooth® audio device according to the voice connection instruction.

8. The mobile terminal according to claim 7 , wherein the prompt instruction comprises ringing.

9. The mobile terminal according to claim 7 , wherein the prompt instruction comprises vibrating.

10. The mobile terminal according to claim 7 , wherein the prompt instruction comprises light flashing.

11. The mobile terminal according to claim 7 , wherein the prompt instruction comprises emitting a smell.

12. The mobile terminal according to claim 7 , wherein the data connections are Asynchronous Connection-Less (ACL) connections, and wherein the voice connection instruction is a Synchronous Connection Oriented (SCO) connection instruction.

13. A non-transitory computer readable medium, comprising processor executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:

establish at least two data connections with at least two Bluetooth® audio devices;

send a prompt instruction to a plurality of Bluetooth® audio devices, which the data connections have been established, via the established at least two data connections, upon receiving a call;

obtain a voice connection instruction according to a user input, wherein the voice connection instruction comprises an identification information of a target Bluetooth® audio device selected by the user input from the plurality of Bluetooth® audio devices that received the prompt instruction; and

establish a voice connection according to the voice connection instruction.

14. The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 13 , wherein the prompt instruction comprises ringing.

15. The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 13 , wherein the prompt instruction comprises vibrating.

16. The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 13 , wherein the prompt instruction comprises light flashing.

17. The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 13 , wherein the prompt instruction comprises emitting a smell.

18. The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 13 , wherein the data connections are Asynchronous Connection-Less (ACL) connections, and wherein the voice connection instruction is a Synchronous Connection Oriented (SCO) connection instruction.
