Bluetooth Mate - Software Serial - Receiving multiple chars at once

Using Arduino Networking, Protocols, and Devices
1

Hi

I have a Arduino Uno R3 and a Bluetooth Mate.
When linking the Mate to the Arduino Hardware Serial (pin 0,1) I can send multiple characters at once from my connected device but when I try to make the same thing with Software Serial (using pin 4,2 for example) I only get the first character and the rest of the chars are messed up.

My code:

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>  

int bluetoothTx = 4;  
int bluetoothRx = 2;  

SoftwareSerial bluetooth(bluetoothTx, bluetoothRx);

void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(115200);  
  bluetooth.begin(115200);  
}

void loop()
{
  if(bluetooth.available())
  {
    Serial.print((char)bluetooth.read());  
  }
}

For example if I send this chars: abcd from my android device I get this in the serial monitor: a±,ö

This code that uses Hardware Serial (I link my bluetooth to pins 0 and 1) works just fine:

void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(115200);  
}

void loop()
{
  if(Serial.available())
  {
    Serial.print((char)Serial.read());  
  }
}

I even tried changing the baud rate but it didn't helped

Baud rate 115200 too high. Go back to 9600, that is about as fast as you can go.
