Question about a bluetooth headset - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I got a headset from my buddy for free and its a motorola and it has a button on it so you can push the button to answer a call and to hang up a call. Can I use that button with this phone or no? I have tried to find hands free stuff on this phone but I it seems like I can only use the headset if I click answer on the phone.
Can anyone help me out?

Notification sounds using stereo Bluetooth on STOCK Rom

Hi,
In new gingerbread update when I am in my car using my mw600 as handsfree, I get a call BUT the earpeice is not in my ear. With the mobile not being in my immediate view I can't tell that there is a call.
Why? Coz the phone speaker doesn't ring when connected to stereo Bluetooth. This is since the gingerbread update on x10.
I tried cm7 by z and its a great Rom, also more importantly in regards to the above issue there is also a section in cyanogen mod settings which allows notification sounds to be played through phone speaker. I couldn't stay on this Rom because I wanted the stock SE camera.
My question is simple:
Can the stock Rom have any sort of tweaks to allow sound to be redirected to speaker when in handsfree mode?
Suggestions or point to any useful threads please.

Is that stereo Bluetooth? i.e using Bluetooth headset such as mw600? Also if u r using car Bluetooth, can you play music via car speakers from phone? If not then your scenario would be different to mine.
Also I must point that this is not a bug on my phone as I have experienced this with several installations of stock Rom.

[Q] Notification sounds not playing through headphones

Curious if anyone else has noticed this / knows how to "fix" it.
When I have my headphones plugged in, the notification sounds (eg the default new message "whistle") comes out the speaker instead. The sound in the headphone (music) will mute during this. I've had to resort to turning the notification volume off during work hours, so the sound doesn't disturb others at work - surely these sounds should be coming through headphones while they are plugged in?
Hello,
I'm with the same issue! It's very odd...
Any thoughts about this? Btw, I'm not using stock headset (I'm not used to in-ear headphones).
Yeah add another +1 to this....!!!
Not tried with stock headphones I have a set of Bluetooth ones and I get all notifications through them .
I'll take look in settings .

Actually I double check again, theres a "notification" sound going through headset. the only problem is it's playing simultaneously with the phone speaker. Really annoying specially if I'm in the office cause others can hear the notification sound too.
An android bug, apparently

This is a long-standing Android bug that manifests on many, though not all, phones. Google for "android notification sounds headphones" and you find many complaints about it, and a Google bug report with comments going back to 2010.
There is a apparently an easy way to patch it if your phone is rooted (though I cannot find info on exactly HOW) and there is a script here on XDA for use with the Tasker app ($6 or so in the Playstore) that can address it.
Other than that, the only thing to do to minimize annoyance to your coworkers is turn notification sounds to silent when using headphones. There are volume profile apps that can do this automatically.
In this bug report https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=6696 and this one https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=16667 it said that's a problem with ICS, that is supposed to be fixed in JB and that CM have their own fix for this.
Let's hope that S3 JB release will fix it.
this problem has been bugging me too..hope its fixed in the next update.

Auxiliary audio and Bluetooth

I noticed when I'm playing music through the audio jack to my car's auxiliary, bluetooth headset is disabled for calls. I have to pull the audio jack, then the button for bluetooth is enabled again.
My G2 would allow calls to go through the bluetooth headset and then once the call was done, music would continue on auxiliary.
Is there any way to get this back? Anyone else think this is an issue?
Yep have the same problem, thanks for asking the question hope we get an answer.

Glad I'm not the only one who misses this... Seems pretty basic.

I thought this was a bug as well. However when using the aux, I am having an issue with the audio being muted when I disconnect the headphones and no way to bring the audio back up unless I restart the device.

Speaking phone default?

If there a way to make speaker phone as default for making and receiving a call? I would say 90 percent of the time I am using speaker phone and it's annoying to hit speaker every time. Be alot nice if I could hit speaker off if I didn't want it on a call.

Someone correct me if I am wrong....but, there is no native way to do that with android....you will need an app from the market for that....the app called "custom car home" works very well for this...good luck
I know you can do this hooked up via Bluetooth or aux not sure if it is without a accessory
