With greetings from the netherlands Iwan
Hey Iwan in the Netherlands,
I don't have the pioneer, but did play with one in the store recently. I know your trying to pair the phone to the radio, but actually, I think it should be the other way around. Try this:
Set the radio on discovery
Using the HTC, search for new devices
The radio's model number should appear
Check both boxes for audio streaming and hands free.
Hope this helps & works.

Yep, same here worth the $$ I have the avic-d3 with the bluetooth addon, it even streams the bluetooth audio mp3's. Unable to sync the phone book though.
Okay this is what I've been wondering...is there anyway to use an Android phone as a bluetooth headset for the Galaxy Tab (or any Android tablet for that matter)? im planning on getting T-Mobile's prepaid Android 2.2 phone and i want to keep my minute usage down by using Google Voice on the tablet. And since they both have bluetooth capabilities it should be possible to use it in this manner, right? I do not want to use one of those hideous, uncomfortable bluetooth headsets because im already going to have a bluetooth device (the phone) with me that im more comfortable using. Is there any way to do this or an app that enables this functionality?
Isn't that like call forwarding or something?
no because your not forwarding your calls, your handling the call over bluetooth. this is what im talking about: people will call my tablet's Google Voice number, and I will be able to use my phone as a bluetooth headset for the tablet to take the call
its the same concept as bluetooth headsets today:
-you get a bluetooth headset
-you pair the headset with your phone
-you take calls on your phone but talk and listen through your bluetooth headset
the way im trying to do this is:
-you get a bluetooth-capable phone
-you pair the phone with your tablet
-you take calls on your tablet but talk and listen through your bluetooth phone
since the phone already has everything that a bluetooth headset has--microphone, earpiece, bluetooth radio-- it should be able to pair with the tablet and work in the same manner as a regular bluetooth headset
yes!
Im looking thos for months my friend. But no one seems to know anything. We are talkin for clever and serius programming so it is not so easy to find sonething.
Profile
I have been looking to do the same thing with my Samsung tab. Instead of walking around stucked to my face.
Yes I could use a BT headset, but it won't dial out. There is a specific Bluetooth profile to do this.
i don't know much about this, but wouldn't the phone would need the bluetooth protocol that a headset uses? someone would have to make a program that would allow the phone to be used as a headset, but then also decide what gets priority if the phone needs to also access the mic or earpiece when you are on a call...
i don't mind simply using a bluetooth - that is more comfortable and flexible than me holding a phone in one hand.
I am seekung solution too.
I'm looking for a solution to this as well. But a different application.
using a tablet as a car-computer.
leave phone in pocket. take and view phone calls though tablet, which is mounted to dash, which is routed to the car audio system with strategically placed microphone built into dash.
I'm surprised no one has made this... seems like something many would be after.
looking for the same here :-(
I want to buy a cheap tablet to leave in the car and use as a gps.
I'd like it to being able to be connected to my phone and work as a bluetooth hands free of sorts.
anyone has 2 android devices to try and connected and see what happens?
Me too - so i'm posting here to show that there is really demand for solution

The Phone app apk is there but it doesn't work Honeycomb, Google Voice also FCs. I think it's because Google knows it would take away from the Android Phones and that would piss off the carriers.
Why should it take people away from carriers? Me want to use my communicator as phone №2, so i could not take from my pocket the first one.

Because you could Google Voice, Skype, etc for a lot cheaper than a carrier.
same same, would be great solution to using tab as a phone
What we are seeking is the Bluetooth HFP (Hands-Free Protocol) (ver. 1.5) HF Profile. Many newer OEM car head-units support the HFP hands-free (HF) mode while most all Android devices and tablets support the audio gateway (AG) mode only.
I am not a developer but I would suspect that getting the AG portion of HFP to work would require changes to the BT drivers. If anyone has the HF mode working on an Android device, please chime in!

Do any devs have ideas? This would make tons of tablet owners happy. In an ideal world, we would be able to keep an Android phone in our pocket, and send/receive texts on the tablet through our phone carrier, as well as make and receive calls using our tablets as a Bluetooth speaker phone. This marriage of tablet to phone would be awesome, and generate a lot of money and interest in the app market.
Does anyone know if there has been any progress on using a phone as a bluetooth headset for a tablet? I am trying to figure out how to do this with a samsung galaxy gio and a samsung galaxy tab 7.

This is the exact solution I am looking for! Come on developers of the world, how hard can it be!
So is the problem with this that Android doesn't support the necessary profiles in its bluetooth stack? Is there any way to add the profiles ourselves?
It would be nice if a developer would look into this.
To the sages,
I am trying to pair with handsfree in 2006 Z4 M Coupe Nav. It will show paired on phone and I respond to request on phone to transfer phonebook to car unit. The car will show phonebook loading but it never loads. In this state calls cannot be initiated from car. I tried repairing but same issue. My prior phone, Samsung epic 4g touch paired and loaded phonebook without any problem. Anyone else with this problem or solution? My other car, 2012 Subaru STi pairs and loads phonebook without any problem.
Thanks,
Doc
Edit: I am rooted but stock ROM.
I have had no issues on my 2012 Passat with the phone book, wonder if your older car and the newer phone are using a different protocol for some reason that is causing it to misbehave.
My 2011 f-150 loaded the phone book fine.
My phone paired fine with my 2005 Audi A4 as well as my 2011 BMW 328I XDrive. My phone never prompts me to load a phonebook it just does it automatically. Maybe it's something in the settings that you're missing. However, my boy's father has a 2006 BMW X3 and he had to buy a separate piece from BMW in order for his Android phone to pair with his SUV. I think he has a Samsung Galaxy S II for T-Mobile. You might wanna call them and see if you too need this extra piece in order for the phone to work with your car.
In mini I heard it meses up so I didn't load the phone book. Although my og EVO could use the phone book.
Nice ride I used to have a e36/8 m coupe.
Sent from my EVO using XDA
2011 Hyundai Sonata is a hit or miss. Phone asks me if I should allow access to phone book and I did. Incoming phonecalls show up as numbers. Outgoing sometimes as names, and sometimes as numbers. Call log mostly names.
To all-thanks for the ideas/replies. I will see if BMW can help me out. I did check a link from Google that was to check for software update and returned no update is available.
Thanks again,
Doc
I'm not sure what's wrong but I've been having bluetooth connectivity issue last few days. I paired the Z Ultra with Sony Smartwatch and I noticed that the Smartwatch would loose connectivity every once in a while, even though the phone is in my pants pocket or just 30cm away from.
I did all the usual troubleshooting, restarting both devices and re-pair it.
Anybody experiencing similar issue?
I have actually experienced a problem with the bluetooth when pairing to my Jabra headset. I have only had the phone for a 2 days and just recently updated to build number 14.1.b.0.471. Since then, i havent tested out the bluetooth yet. However, i have seen some bug fixes.
Have you updated to the latest firmware yet?

Yes, the phone is up to date.
I'm having Bluetooth issues with various headsets and this phone. Some of them disconnect, some hang, some randomly will have one way voice in the middle of the call.
Running the latest firmware. Something is up with the BT drivers on this phone.

i had similar issues with bluetooth and linking to my car. at first it worked fine, but if i would change input on car stereo and come back, to the bluetooth, the mb bluetooth would auto start google play music. the solution for me was to remove all device from bluetooth option from phone and car and it worked perfectly.
That sounds worrying cos I ordered the SBH52
Hope they fixed this. Haven't tested my blue tooth yet cos I don't have a BT device.

The thing is, I only paired one bluetooth device to the phone. As mentioned above, I unpaired, restart and re-pair the Smartwatch again and the issue persist.
I find it weird because it worked fine when I first paired the Smartwatch with the phone. The problem only occurred recently
I've had nothing but trouble using SBH50 (same with both firmwares 1.0.A.4.0 and 1.1.A.0.7) with Z Ultra (14.1.B.0.475). First time connection (NFC) went smoothly. Followed by lots of trouble within minutes. Frequent lost connections (even when they were just a few inches apart) followed by requests for pairing. Random loss of media or phone audio without any warning sign.
Connection was stable only after uninstalling the SBH50 android application (and all the smart extras), disabling Sony Smart Connector and execution of manual pairing. No more event reminders, but at least it is now usable for music and phone calls. Hopefully Sony will update firmware/software to address the connectivity problems.
[Edited 30 August 2013: Happy to report that the connectivity problems were resolved in firmware 14.1.B.1.510]
how about me, i can't event send a file from my laptop to my device?
anyone can help?
it's paired but when i send, doesn't notified to receive any of that files
NFC can't recieved item
My Z Ultra can't recieved item that another device send to my Z Ultra via NFC. It always trying to open Play Store after beam. Can anyone help me please!!!!!

broken bluetooth
hi guys, ive been looking for a fix to my bluetooth. i just bought SW2 but i still unable to use it because apparently the bluetooth on my phone could not detect the watch. I have tried reset, fixing it via companion apps in windows but problems still persist. i have tried using my galaxy with SW2 and no problem there. basically it was my bluetooth inside the ZU that are causing all the problems. Im on the latest build .257 and are not rooted. Bootloader is locked and everything else is stock. When i tried to connect via the 1-touch NFC there's dialogue showing up on my phone that the watch is connected but nothing happen afterwards. the SW2 is still in its pairing mode and there are no instruction to ask me for download or anything as shown by Sony in their youtube channel. Im growing frustrated with this phone. Having to live without root and now wasted $200 on a watcg that i cant even use. argghhhhhhhh....any help is much appreciated guys!
I have the same problem with the Sony SmartWatch 2 when I talk in my BT headset the phone keeps losing connection with my watch.
edit: system restore did the trick
Im also facing unresolved issue with my xperia zultra and bluetooth connectivit.
My phone is unable to recognize any bluetooth hardwares and its becoming quite annoyiing.
Has there been any remedy to this issue?
Thanks
Has anyone had any success with android auto and the V10? I have not been able to connect to my NEX4100 via android auto AND bluetooth....
I think there are general bluetooth issues. I have a 2014 Cadillac with CUE Bluetooth and the V10 connects fine but no media can play. Calls work fine. I've tried many of the tricks that helped with the LG G4 (turning media audio off in settings after connecting then turning it back on) to no avail.
Between this and the force restarts, I may return this phone and go with the Nexus 6P. Also annoyed that verizon is selling the Qi chargin back as an accessory...
I had the same issue with my 2014 Jetta and the V10, took me 30 minutes of restarting bluetooth, turning the phone off and on, turning the car off and on and finally I switched my car to FM and the bluetooth connected to also support media audio. After that it worked ok. No idea what's up with the bluetooth but for my wireless headset it paired without issue. Seems picky

Same strange issues here.
Paired no problem to a 2015 Honda Accord. Unable to pair to a 2011 BMW X3 (however the HTC One M8, M9, Samsung Galaxy Avant and Light all pair no problem). And it paired no problem to a 2016 BMW X3.
And at the gym, it disconnected from the bluetooth headset while I was using it. Wouldn't reconnect until I powered the headset off and back on.
I've got the nex4100 as well and I have had no issues at all. Everything works as it should.

I don't know. Others in the thread seem to be confirming the issue your having but I seem to be the only one with the exact same head unit. Do you have the update for the head unit? My S5 had issues before the update. Update is kind of old but it did help with my S5. And Android Auto is working fine.

I am up to date on the 4100. So i swapped it out today and now it works with Android Auto, however it still does not work with bluetooth which is super odd.. to my understanding when you plug the phone in to connect to AA it still transmits the audio over bluetooth. Pioneer said it could be something wrong with the media bluetooth profile or something. Anyways i guess im stuck until they fix it. Maybe when android M comes out.
I don't know about Android Auto, but I definitely think the V10 has Bluetooth issues. I traded my Galaxy S6 Edge+ in for a V10 a week ago. I notice the Bluetooth audio is consistently "skipping" on both my car's audio and my Bluetooth headphones. Both devices worked flawlessly on my S6. Sometimes my car will even completely disconnect from the phone and I have to go through a complete reset/re-add process to get it back.
Hoping a 6.0 update will come soon and fix this issue.

Just an update as I just ran new cable in the car for the new phone. Everything tested out fine for me. The car is an 02 Camaro that I don't drive often now that it's cold outside but after hearing your problems I wanted to make sure everything was working the way it's supposed to. I don't think bluetooth audio while on Android Auto worked at all but Google play works just fine. Bluetooth audio was flawless when not connected to Android Auto. Tested it on and off Wi-Fi. Good to hear your better after the swap.

I'm having problems connecting to my 2015 GMC Sierra (GMC Intellilink). I can connect, connect automatically, make and receive phone calls, but the bluetooth audio for music DOES NOT WORK. Most of the time, when I try to play a song via google play music or Deezer, the head unit in my truck immediately goes BLACK for about 10 seconds, I hear a whirrr of an internal fan, and it starts back up disconnected from the phone. The phone is causing the head unit to fail & restart. Sometimes it doesn't restart. It'll show the progress bar of the music, as well as on my phone. I can pause, play, next song, etc. but NO AUDIO comes out. It's just dead silent.
I'll let you guys know what my dealership says, as it's in service right now for this issue. I'm hoping there's an update for the software :/
When I bluetooth over to my $300 Sony x-7s speaker, every 10 seconds or so I get a loud static pop. Luckily I kept my note3 so I just use that until an update (hopefully) will fix the issue, so I can listen to my Howard Stern on the v10. I am surprised they didn't push an update on or near release date. Maybe they are going straight to Marshmallow.
So i have an update after having a week or so to play around with it. Although I cannot connect to my NEX 4100 via bluetooth I can use google play music via android auto. Also i cannot use spotify on AA UNLESS i hit play on google play music first then pause then try to play a song on spotify...... very strange.
I'm glad it's not just me... Same weird bluetooth issues here with my Mercedes E63 AMG and the COMMAND unit. It was working flawlessly with my last phone (Xperia Z3.) The V10 is nothing but a headache so far. The following problems are happening:
Won't connect at all, and hangs.
Connects for calls only, no media.
Connects, instantly disconnects, cycle repeats.
To fix it I either have to keep manually connecting from COMMAND, until it randomly works. Or disconnect from the phone, and reconnect again. Or turn bluetooth off and on. On the note of which, half the time I do that, it hangs. Love the phone, but I'm going to return it if this goes on.
Further note: I even took the car in to the dealer, and paid 150 bucks to get the latest firmware updates done on it. That didn't fix it either. Tried my Xperia again, still works flawlessly. Ugh.
I had an interesting issue with bluetooth.
I paired it to my 2015 Jeep Overland.
Music from SD Card played fine.
Then tried pandora. Nothing worked. Disabled bluetooth and pandora was fine. Went back to local mp3s from SD card and they would not play now.
Had to un-pair and pair it again. Then mp3s worked.
Played pandora and nothing and that broke mp3s again.
Then I tried my g4 on Sprint. Pandora worked fine.
Also tried Tune in Radio and that worked on v10 over bluetooth.
I think it is caused by Binge On from t- mobile downsampling the stream on pandora and the Uconnect radio does not like the bitrate or format.
I did read t-mobile will downsample streamed movies.
So folks with bluetooth issues, what are you testing with?
I have a less standard setup. I connect to my 2012 Cadillac system as a phone only, and I have an aptx bt dongle attached to the aux port that I'm connected to as a media device.
My phone connects to both simultaneously, and hands the phone back and forth for calls and music. It works flawlessly, and the audio quality way better than any OEM bt streaming that I've ever heard.
I have a Pioneer DEH 80PRS in my truck and it has connected and works perfect just like my G3 did. It always auto connects when entering the vehicle and hands off between streaming Tune in radio or from the SD card using the Android music player app and a phone call no problem. Hopefully the guys having problems will get a fix when the phone is given some MM goodness.
Same issues with Bluetooth and my 4100nex. Calls work, Android auto works, Bluetooth music does not. I'm in my 14 day window. This may be a deal breaker for me. Kinda regret ditching my note 4 for this.
Yall think it will get fixed with an update, or are we permanently screwed?

Same issue between LG V10 T-Mobile and my Bluetooth audio on my 2014 Kia Optima SX. I also have similar connectivity issues between the phone and the Microsoft Band. Similar reports on the Microsoft boards of same Bluetooth issues with the Band and V10. Sounds like a problem on the LG side to me.
