Default Shortcut to enable bluetooth?

Please Login to Remove!

Is there a quicker way to enable bluetooth than going into options and activating it, something like a shortcut key? As we are soon going to be obliged to use handsfree in CA, I would like to know if this can be done so I don't have to go trawling through my phone to turn it on.

Thanks,

Honestly, I never disable my Bluetooth except at times for a few days when I know I won't be using the BT headset. Just leave it on, it doesn't consume that much battery. I turn off the BT headset at night.

But no, there is not a shortcut, other than normal homescreen shortcuts of O for Options > B to Bluetooth.

you can turn it on by going to the manage connections icon on the home screen, and enabling bluetooth from there.
