Today I found out how to change the name of my "linvor" serial Bluetooth module to my desired name.
It's quite easy, however due the different baud rates you nee to experiment a little with them in order to get a good connection. So experiment with setting the baud rate in the Arduino code.
I connected the RX pin of linvor to pin 2 and the TX pin of linvor to pin 3 of the Arduino.
Then I changed the default SoftwareSerialexample of the Arduino IDE a little. Now the Serial.begin(rate); is set to 9600: Serial.begin(9600); which is the baud rate of the linvor.

Receives from software serial, sends to hardware serial.
The circuit:
* RX is digital pin 2 (connect to TX of other device)
* TX is digital pin 3 (connect to RX of other device)

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
SoftwareSerial mySerial(2, 3); // RX, TX
void setup()
{
// Open serial communications and wait for port to open:
Serial.begin(9600);
while (!Serial) {
; // wait for serial port to connect. Needed for Leonardo only
}
Serial.println("Goodnight moon!");
// set the data rate for the SoftwareSerial port
mySerial.begin(9600);
mySerial.println("Hello, world?");
}
void loop() // run over and over
{
if (mySerial.available())
Serial.write(mySerial.read());
if (Serial.available())
mySerial.write(Serial.read());
}
Open your serial monitor and if everyting is correctly set up you should see: "Goodnight moon!"
If you receive weird symbols your baud rate is wrong.
After that send: "AT". It should send OK back.
Now you're able to configure the linvor. Send one command at a time.
