I am trying to take the serial out from a sensor and display on the lcd, then sendit via the blue tooth to a tablet or smart phone. I have no trouble getting the sesor out to the debug screen but have not yet found out how to send it to the lcd or the bluetooth.

    You don't say which LCD display you are trying to send to. Part#?

    Get that working first, then go on to Bluetooth.

    Could you post your code that you are trying?

    Have you tried the Demo Code with the LCD connected to P0?

    The LCD works fine. I got the bluetooth (30086) on the circuit and ran the program and get success most of the time. However i haven't figured out how to send the data on the LCD to the Bluetooth device.

    It sounds like you need to merge the LCD Demo with the Bluetooth Demo in order to get to a point where you can customize the code to do exactly what you want. There is a basic tutorial and some example code on merging programs at the following link, however it does require that you understand how the programs work so you can identify the various blocks within the program that need to be merged and how they interact with one another.
