Note that the devices have to be paired already via the Sailfish Settings app, as there are restrictions on creating new pairings outside of the system framework. If the devices are successfully paired and trusted, I assume that it would be possible to establish a RFCOMM connection, so I would suggest studying the hcidump logs to see where it breaks down.

Note that the QtBluetooth library is not yet included in the Harbour APIs, so it cannot be used in apps distributed via the Store.
