How do I specify a different PIN than 0000 when pairing a bluetooth device on android I have a bluetooth speaker with default passkey 1111 rather than 0000.
I'm not able to connect to it using my android tablet because of this error:


  Couldn't pair with SP104B because of an incorrect PIN or passkey


How do I specify a different PIN than 0000 when pairing a bluetooth device on android 4.2.2?
To fix your speaker problem - Go to Settings &gt; Bluetooth &gt; Turn On and wait for your list of devices to populate. Locate your speaker and Long Press it (press and hold) and then select Un-pair. You'll be free to attempt to pair it again with the proper PIN!

If your device isn't paired with the phone, but it's still not connecting, you can try clearing your Bluetooth cache. Turn off Bluetooth, then Go to Settings &gt; Applications &gt; All &gt; Bluetooth Share and tap "Force Stop," then "Clear Cache," then "Clear Data. If the device was ever paired or a pairing ever failed, it may have stored those credentials regardless of success. This should give you a fresh chance at it.

As for why you can't specify what PIN your speaker provides your phone - it's because the default PIN is assigned to the device when it's made, and can't be changed by the average consumer. Most 'dumb' Bluetooth devices have no way of changing the PIN it comes with.
