The only answer to this question is: use Google. It is far to general for quick answers.

There is no such api exists.Best bet would be select Wireless and Network section of your device and configure Portable and Hotspot mode. So call this settings page from your code via Intent and leave rest of the hard work(configuration) to your device.

Thanks but i already knew that. Your answer suggests the devices which supports BT tethering can only be connected. But i wanted to any android device with BT to share internet resource. Can i make use of sockets?

like use Data provider as server and the sharing mobile as client?
would that be possible?

yes that would be possible,you can make server client model between 2 android devices ans share data between them.

Thank You. Another question how will link the port numbers? I mean data sent over bluetooth how will their port number be recognised? will it still work as a server client model?

yes it is,you can follow a basic android server client bluetooth example from google.That will clear you most i think..
