ANT+ Enabler
Android 7 is not supported yet. There's big change in Bluetooth stack. No internal Bluetooth API available for 3rd party in Android 7. I've figured out a way to address the issue. Please be patient.
Try "True Mouse/KB"! Transform your phone into real Bluetooth mouse & keyboard combo.https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.z2software.btpluginhidd
You could install it with TWRP open recovery. 'fastboot' and 'adb' tools are required on your PC. WARNING, don't forget to backup! I won't take any responsibility if your device bricked or damaged! Here is the steps:
- install adb & fastboot on PC if needed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
- Install and run "Bluetooth#" app once on your phone to create install script: /data/data/com.z2software.bluetoothpatcher/install
- Go to https://twrp.me/devices/ and find twrp recovery by typing your device name such as "nexus 5"
- Download the recovery image
- For new released phone like Nexus 6/6P, make sure enable "OEM unlock" from developer setting.
- Launch command/terminal window from PC
- In command window on PC, run following commands: adb reboot-bootloader
- after phone reboot in fastboot mode, if you boot loader is locked, run following to unlock the boot loader: fastboot oem unlock
- Now boot with twrp recover img you just downloaded fastboot boot your_twrp_recover_img
- In twrp recover mode,mount "system", "data" & "vendor" as writeable. Click "Mount" and check "system, "vendor" & "data", uncheck "Only mount system readonly"
- In command window on PC, run: adb shell source /data/data/com.z2software.bluetoothpatcher/install
- Reboot the phone and run "Bluetooth#" to enable ANT+
Requirement:
- Bluetooth chip with ANT+ feature
- Bluetooth#: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.z2software.bluetoothpatcher
- Root & super user app or TWRP open recovery for installation
- Tested on Nexus 5, Nexus 6, Nexus 6P, Nexus10, HTC One (M7), LG G2, Samsung S4/S5
Highlight:
- Bluetooth on
- Easy to uninstall
- Reported by users, it also worked on Samsung Galaxy_Note3, LG G3(model F400K)
- 10-days no questions asked refund policy
Known issues:
- CM 12 or above for Sumsang phones such as S4 needs to freeze or remove 'ANT HAL Service' to avoid conflict
- Root for android 6.0.1 such as Nexus 6P needs to run install script manually with TWRP open recovery, make sure system, vendor & data are mounted as writeable in TWRP.
- Great news! Thanks for the generous support from official ANT+ developer of ANT Radio Service. The 3rd party ANT adapter providers issue has be fixed in ANT Radio Service 4.12.0. Android 5.0 starts to enforce explicit intent package name for binding 3rd party service.
- ANT+ and LG G2 FM Radio cannot work at same time. ANT+ needs to be disabled before turning on FM Radio.
- Most models of LG G3 not work
If you have any issues and need support or just want refund, please email me first. Writing a negative review won't help much.Review feedback:It seemed people complained about the price and some even go further to undercut my hard work. Please allow me to explain. This is no simple task. It's not a simple configuration tool that turns on couple of system switches and copy over some files from other phones as many tried and failed. No sir, if it were that easy, you'd find the solution all over the Internet long time ago. It's about 4 months hard work and many days until 2am in the morning. It's about 10000 lines of JAVA and C++ code to create the driver for ANT+ and patch for Bluetooth stack. As for the price, I'd say you saved money and hassle from buying ANT+ usb adapter. Just consider the guy worked hard and did fix a problem of your phone. In return, you treat him a decent lunch.

This app has a prerequisite of installing Bluetooth+, which does not exist. This app therefore is unusable. This was first mentioned 6 months ago by the reviewer below me, and has still not been addressed
Has not be able to install it on my One+3T with which I have Ant+ problems, so I went to the refund routine...
Not working asking for additional software that provides an error
Worked great to get ANT+ going on my Nexus 5. I was already rooted running stock but had to switch to TWRP from ClockworkMod. Followed the easy directions and had it paired with my Wahoo Cadence and HRM sensors within a few minutes. Great job by the developer and well work $10.
It works fine on Nexus 5 up to Android 7. Tested with Endomondo and ANT+ demo. My sensor is a Geonaute ANT+ (Decathlon). Runtastic doesn't seem to be able to detect ANT+ devices by now. Great support!!
Just worked (perfectly) ... did exactly what I needed. Worth every penny ... people should stop complaining about the price and focus on what they got
Got this for my Nexus 6 as I didn't like using an ANT+ USB stick. Installed it on the latest PureNexus ROM (I'm rooted) and connected to my garmin speed/cadence sensor. Great work! Thanks!
Installed and worked without hitch on my HTC One M7 - paired with Ipbike I have my phone functioning as an excellent cycle computer. Thanks and not expensive at all for the amount of work done. HTC One (M7 and M8) users like myself might like to investigate the SunShine app - it's another $25 but is a very painless way to get the security access you need in order to make ANT+ Enabler work.
Does not work on my LG g3, though it definitely has the ble chip with ant :/ Even tried two different roms (crdroid lollipop and CM marshmallow) How can I apply for a refund?
Doesn't work, shows ADAPTER_NOT_DETECTED. Never working it seems.
How to request a refund?
Works well with my HTC One M9, instead of using TWRP I used a terminal emulator app found in the play store (with "su" command for root access). Thanks for writing this app!
Took 2 attempts to get it to work, but can confirm it picks up all my bikes ANT+ sensors. Appreciate the dev had to do a lot of work, but I think given a fairly poor user experience (root or TWRP) it's a bit high. Certainly worth the money though. Thank you!
Pricey but worth it. I was able to connect my Rhytm+ HRM without any issues. Great job.
Expensive but it worked on cyanogen mod, galaxy s5.
Worked fine on my nexus 5, but can't get it to work on my LG G4 H815P. DO you think its possible to make it work?
Good work. Unfortunately it doesn't work on s3 and note2.
This got my S5 running Resurrection Remix to work with ant+.
I love that my phone can now use ANT+
No need to comment, this app does what it says!
Unfortunately this app doesn't work. Will you please refund my money?
I had my doubts, but it works.
Doesn't work with CM13.
Schweet! Works great with a Nexus 5 and 5.1. Standing by for Android 7 / CM 14...! Worth every cent - and then some. Thks!
Did not work at all for me, the developer eventually responded and gave me a refund. When you download it will tell you that you need Bluetooth + for this to work. The catch is that Bluetooth+ doesn't exist. This app would never even allow me past the error screen saying I needed the Bluetooth+ app. I don't know if it works for other phones, but didnt work for mine.
