Haven't tried chan_mobile against 1.4; just against trunk; and have it
working
OK with 2 of 3 bluetooth dongles with my samsung cellphone.

Look in asterisk-addons/trunk for chan_mobile.c; set up your config
file; mine looks like this:

;
; configuration file for chan_mobile
;

[general]
interval=30		; Number of seconds between trying to connect to devices. 

; The following is a list of adapters we use.
; id must be unique and address is the bdaddr of the adapter from
hciconfig.
; Each adapter may only have one device (headset or phone) connected at
a time.
; Add an [adapter] entry for each adapter you have.

[adapter]
id=encore
address=00:11:C6:09:DF:99

[adapter]
id=iogear_gbu221
address=00:02:49:07:FC:44

[adapter]
id=asus
address=00:02:72:27:92:8D

; The following is a list of the devices we deal with.
; Every device listed below will be available for calls in and out of
Asterisk. 
; Each device needs an adapter=xxxx entry which determines which
bluetooth adapter is used.
; Use the CLI command 'mobile search' to discover devices.
; Use the CLI command 'mobile show devices' to see device status.
;
; To place a call out through a mobile phone use
Dial(Mobile/[device]/NNN.....) or Dial(Mobile/gn/NNN......) in your
dialplan.
; To call a headset use Dial(Mobile/[device]).
