Bluetooth music player - Vibrant Themes and Apps

Is there an app that will let you play music from your phone on your car using a bluetooth connection? Like is there a way to play all phone audio on your car via bluetooth rather than just call audio?

No app can change this, the thing is your car stereo has to support the A2DP bluetooth profile, if you do not have a "bluetooth audio" option and only "telephone" on your car stereo then it only supports the "headset" profile, for example I have a pioneer bt-8000 car stereo, it supports both a2dp and headset profiles, I set my car stereo to "bt audio" then all audio OTHER than phone audio comes through car stereo, then if a call is initiated inbound or outbound, the car stereo automatically switches to phone, then when disconnected back to bt audio

I did however forget one way that this could be possible without the A2DP profile, not sure if this exists for our phone, but a hack could be made on the phone that would force all audio through the headset profile on the phone itself, but like I said, I haven't seen this hack for our phones

There's an app in the Market called Super Bt Mono Froyo that does exactly that - routes all audio from phone to Bluetooth device using headset profile. The quality pretty much sucks for music though - kinda like if you'd listen to music over GSM phone connection. I personally use it for navigation prompts when riding my motorcycle. If you want decent quality - you need A2DP.

Bluetooth Audio

How do I get all audio on my Verizon Touch Pro to play through my bluetooth earpiece?
With my Motorola Q, I connected the bluetooth device, it changed to a Headset profile and all audio (tcpmp, windows media, etc) played through the bluetooth device.
When I connect the same bluetooth earpice to my Touch Pro, the only time it activates is if I hit voice command or once a call is connected.
I also have bluetooth stereo headphones with that stereo profile and those do get audio from Windows Media player.
How do I get audio from TCPMP/Windows Media to play through the Hands Free profile that the bluetooth earpieces I have use?
Anyone able to help with this? I'm disappointed that I can't listen to audio through a bluetooth headset with the hands-free profile.
There has to be a simple fix.
Tap and hold the name of the headset and tap 'Set as Wireless Stereo.'
That option is grayed out for my mono headsets.
Any other ideas?

that is because your headset is not a2dp. what you did before was just have the crappy audio go across your headset without true a2dp so the sound was pretty bad. i have jabra bt8010 and sometimes i have to refresh the option on my headset to set wireless stereo. if i don't, the audio is piss poor because i'm just piggy backing ontop of the voice command audio stream.

Yes, I understand that.
But, my question is how can I get audio to come through my mono bluetooth headset when it's connected? On my Motorola Q, ALL audio routed through the headset when it was connected. On the TP, only if I start voice command or make a call does audio get sent to the headset.
I use the headset to listen to podcasts, so that's what I'm looking for.
I did find a program that would route all audio through the headset, but I do have to run it each time I connect the headset. I suppose that will suffice though.

Parrot CK3000 wont stream music on the car speaker

I have Parrot CK3000 bluetooth hands free car kit install in my car I can play & hear music from the speakers when I connect to my Nokia n700, but when I connect to my HTC Hero music wont play on car speakers it will play on the speakers of the phone. every thing else works when I receive call it will go to the speakers the only problem is the music,
My Hero runs VillainROM 5.4
any idea
Simple answer is that it won't work - I used to have a Parrot CK3000 and could not get it to work. Music from the Hero is transmitted using the A2DP Bluetooth profile. The Parrot, being a car phone kit, only uses handfree and headset BT profiles. I guess your Nokia used those ports to transmit music
Even if you get it to work by tweaking the Hero the sound quality would be mono and pretty poor, which is a limitation of the headset/handsfree profiles.
The newer Parrots support A2DP profile, and utilise the aux input on your car audio for good quality stereo music output, whilst still using the mobile phone input for phone calls. So does the Bury CC9060 handsfree kit, which I now use.

playing music via Bluetooth?

Has anyone gotten this phone to work playing music through your car stereo through Bluetooth?
I'm paired fine and calls come through stereo, but music still comes through phone speaker. My gf isn't around atm or i'd ask her(she got her HD7 to do bluetooth music on my stereo).
I at least know that once it's paired, it's a phone setting.
I have mine paired with my Sony Bluetooth car stereo and it plays fine. I did have one instance where it played through the phone speaker but it corrected itself the next day.

There should be an option depending on what music player you are using to determine what output you are using. Kinda like if you had a bluetooth earbud, you wouldn't want to play music through it, just receive your calls through it.

So all you did was just pair, started music player, then it automatically went through Bluetooth?
No matter what I do, it just keeps going through phone speaker(only calls go through Bluetooth). I've tried with default music player and poweramp.
I don't have anything bluetooth to try, but there are no options at all to choose output path either in BT or Music player?

Under advanced Bluetooth options there is one labeled FTP Server which I believe you need to have on in order to stream music. Hmm... Tried turning Bluetooth on and off on both the phone and stereo, even rebooted phone. Blah!

When you pair a headset that is stereo capable, it will pair to 2 things, phone audio and media. Have you tried to unpair and pair and see if that fixes it?
I have paired my Rezound with a set of bluetooth stereo headphones and also with my car stereo. I have noticed that the media audio connection is intermittent. It always *says* that it is connected to media audio, but sometimes the sound comes out of my phone speaker anyhow. I have not figured out how to fix this. It seems to happen randomly (more frequently with my car stereo than with the headphones, but it has happened with both). All I can recommend is to go into a Disconnect/Unpair/Pair/Connect loop until you get it to work. It might also help to power cycle your phone. I just did that last night and it paired and connected properly with my car stereo this morning.
This all of course assumes you have checked "Media" under the options screen for the device with which you are pairing.

If it behaves like any other Android phone, when it links up to a bluetooth connection with the audio profile enabled, it should automatically route it's sound to bluetooth, there's no setting in the music player to toggle that.

My car has the option for bluetooth media and when I sync'd the phone to the car last night for the first time it worked flawlessly I didn't have to to anything special. I don't think it's a problem with the phone, maybe the car stereo?
I suspect the phone since I've seen the same intermittent problem both with my car stereo and my headphones. Plus I never had any problem with my original Droid with both those devices.

Update: did a plain old pair with the HTC HD7 again and the music came through the stereo just fine. Tried again with the Rezound and still keeps going through the phone speakers. Oh well... My fault for trusting HTC.. ;P

Auto-switch from Bluetooth media audio to car dock?

I'm running the current CM10.1 nightlies on my old Fascinate.
I use a Plantronics Bluetooth headset that supports various profiles - represented in the JB 4.2.2 Bluetooth configuration as selectable options for "phone audio" and "media audio".
I usually want the headset configured for both, but when I put the phone in my car dock, I want the media audio redirected to the dock's audio output (via USB).
If I turn off the headset, the audio is configured to route through the dock properly and automatically... But I still wish to use the headset for phone audio when the phone is docked. If I manually configure the headset settings for only phone audio, that works too - but what a hassle going in and out of my Bluetooth configuration before and after each docking operation .
Any ideas on a way to automate this? Anyone know of a slick app that can handle this?

So it seems that within a day of my asking the question, djp952 goes and adds a patch to GeeWiz 4.3: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39032883 to do exactly this. Amazing!

Bluetooth customization

I am currently running cm11(12/17) and am using an LG Tone+ bluetooth headset. Is there a way or am app that will let me customize the bluetooth settings so my phone's speaker will ring so well as the headset? Currently it will only ring on the headset. Also, I would like media to automatically play out of headset jack instead of bluetooth (I hook my car stereo to the headset jack and have to manually disable media in the bluetooth settings for this to work). If I could just be pointed in the right direction I can probably figure it out.
