Looks like I'm late to the party but.. Another alternative for ARM is the BeagleBoards. I just got the BeagleBone and it has an embedded IDE (Cloud 9) it looks...
Thanx for sharing, been there done that with other hardware. My gut feeling when buying the HC-05 was that I might have problems with its reliability, but I...
I used the i.MX 25 last year. It was a remarkably painful experience. I cannot recommend it. Yes the i.MX series is fast, yes it is low cost, and yes it has a...

I recommend the Maple board made by LeafLabs. I'm holding off on buying some until the Maple Native arrives, but if you are coming from the Aurduino world, you...
The Maple boards from Leaf Labs are Arduino shaped and have a port of the Arduino IDE with minor changes. They have a STM32F1 chip on there. Should do a lot...

I tried a different module and it worked perfectly. Darn it! I've wasted a day and a half. I talked to someone else who bought two of the modules (HC-05 he...
I'm sure that my modules are HC-05, I did some research and it was without a doubt. The main source was of course the various datasheets. Please post your...
... Yeah, you need to look at this seriously. Remember you have two modems with AT command sets. The one sending and the one receiving, and either one can be...

I have not seen anything like you described. If I did see it, my natural instinct is to work around it, since in my case I'm looking for results, and make sure...
Peter: I had the same feeling too, since the part numbering on the datasheet is not the same as the part number on the chip. I also used this datasheet, this...

It gets weirder. As I said, my data is formatted into 11-byte blocks. I changed the app in the PC so that when it receives a block, it sends a $00 byte back to...

Cesar Thanks for the document. It's one I'd seen before but it wasn't clear whether it applied to the modules I'd bought. Combining various documents, it looks...

Cesar ... My data is formatted into 11-byte blocks: 1 start byte ($AA), 9 data bytes and one checksum that is the XOR of the previous 10 bytes. So I can spot...
I don't think that your question is off topic. I have not tried to use the HC-04, just the HC-05. But since I'm using it for bot control, I think that I...
