What version of BluezIME are you using?

What Android version? 4.3

What gamepad are you using? icade 8-bitty

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Pair Controller
2.Choose BluezIME
3.Get Error Message

What is the expected output?
What do you see instead? Error: BT Socket Connect Failed

Please provide any additional information below.
I am unsure about the status of HID or other Bluetooth protocols on the 2nd Gen 
Nexus 7. Its an ASUS product, and hopefully has these protocols installed. Has 
anyone else had any luck trying BluezIME on the (2013) Nexus 7?

Upon investigation, its clear that 4.2.2 changed the way the bluetooth stack 
works, hogging the connection and not allowing BluezIME to connect. 4.3 is the 
same way, and unless some workaround can be found, BluezIME may never work 
again. :(
