Hi, just wondering anyone able to get phone call with bluetooth headset. I was able to connect bluetooth headset successfully but when making call, i can't hear the voice from other party. But playing music was ok. Someone pls help and confirm. Just wondering is my root and rom problem.
in addition, calling using viber can use bluetooth headset without problem.
Thanks alot
Once you have paired your device, long press it in Bluetooth settings then select options and select 'Tablet' for phone calls to be sent to it.
Tablet = Phone audio
Media = All other audio
So has anyone figured out how to use a bluetooth headset without root
Were you guys actually able to get it to pair and connect to the headset profile? not just the "media" profile?
I don't seem to have a tablet profile but I'm sure that's because I am not rooted (Evo View 4g)

I got in on the Samsung WEP470 deal at NewEgg to use with my G Tab. But in testing it, I've noticed that it will pair, no worries, but it won't connect.
My goal is to use it to replace the rubbish internal mic for skype calls when my daughter is traveling.
Any ideas? Does anyone have a BT earpiece that does connect and can work for calling?
Thanks!

I have Motorola S7HD stereo bluetooth headset and it pairs and works great with my G Tab running latest TnT Lite. I use them to listen to pandora, and watch tv/movies from my media server using plugplayer. I haven't tested yet for video conferencing, but it should work for that too. I'm too lazy to convert my Skype friends to oovoo or whatever it is, I'm hoping Skype will just finally add video to Android Skype soon.
Good luck.

Only A2DP Bluetooth
I have a Plantronics Blackbeat 903 which also works perfect for listening (through A2DP), but that's all I've been able to achieve. I mean, I can not make it work as audio input, just output. I guess g tab doesn't have the hands-free (HFP), or headset (HSP) Bluetooth profiles required to do that. So, even though I have Skype installed and I can make calls and listen via bluetooth, the built-in mic is still being used during the call instead of the Bluetooth headeset mic.
I've been googling around and still have found nothing about whether that functionality can be enabled. If you guys find something, let me know.
Anyone have BT headset/microphone combo that works?

I have a Rocketfish RF-MAB2 stereo headset that works for audio output but not microphone input (works ok on my blackberry tour). Just tried Sipdroid and while I could hear fine, audio was definitely going through the microphone on the G-Tablet ("sounds like you are under-water").
Bummer. I would like to be able to hear and talk through this set of headphone/microphone. My Emerson EM227 will pair but not connect. Is this an issue where the proper bluetooth stack isn't present?
My Galaxy S3 connects to my car's Bluetooth and allows me to make and receive calls. However, notification sounds are not playing via Bluetooth. It seems that the phone is sending the sounds to bluetooth but the car system doesn't play them. The result is that I have no audible indication when I receive a message when my phone is connected to my car's Bluetooth system.
Similarly, if I try to use S-Voice it would seem that the phone is expecting sound input via bluetooth and not from the phone's built in microphone, which means it does not detect any sound. Audio output also does not play on the phone or via bluetooth.
Presumably my car's bluetooth does not support receiving such sounds - only supporting basic phone functions. I cannot find any configuration settings on the car system to enable it.
Is there any way of stopping my phone trying to send notification sounds to bluetooth and to just play these via the phone's speaker but still allowing the phone to be connected to bluetooth for making and receiving calls? Similarly can I force S-Voice to use the phone's microphone and speaker if it cannot be made to work with my car's bluetooth?
S Voice on AT&T Galaxy Note Bluetooth In Car
First off, I am having the same issue, I tried even holding down talk / voice command button on steering wheel, No luck. I have a 2012 Kia Optima GLI full Nav and Voice command options. I have my Note working nicely with Team Perfection ICS R2, S Voice is fully functional except:
When using S voice in car connected to car Bluetooth (pushing search button on bottom of phone face) it tries to accept audio input from car Mic over Bluetooth, but never receives input. Can't find any setting in S voice app to change input setting from car to phone mic. Not sure why the car mic doesn't work other than just not supported by the s voice app? Anyone out there know of a fix or work around?
s voice does not work over any bluetooth
I have tried this on multiple Bluetooth devices. It does't hear anything and it responds with a very feint. Robotic distorted voice. Music plays well on Bluetooth but I have had problems with phone calls.so maybe the problem is the Bluetooth stack rather than s-voice.
I am having the same problem with SGS3. When I was testing s-voice on SGS2 you could set s-voice to use SGS speaker and mic for voice commands and notifications. Now I can't find that toggle.
BT Devices , yes....Car BT, No
It works fine on my headsets. IT doesn't work in my car.
spanout has nailed the problem. It apparently does NOT use the mic in the phone when hooked to BT. The car is not designed to pass voice to the BT. The car BTs typically have their own voice control, and as such is handling the voice itself.
When you think about it, it makes sense. Less chance for outside noise if it takes the input from the mic on your BT device, as likely the phone will not be close to your mouth.
The only way we'll get it to work is to find a way to enable the mic on the phone when on BT. Probably would need help from the DEVs here on that.
im in the same boat!
the real kicker is SIRI can send her voice over the car speakers and utilize the car mic.
so logic says, its purely a BT setting on the software ice cream and s3.
any apps for that? or any dev's want to chime in?
im using a very simple bmw bluetooth (not idrive).
it cant stream music, so i dont know how the fak siri can send her voice over it.
I have this problem with my SGS3, and had it with the SGS2 in my Ford S-Max. The problem is Ford's. Using the phone with a parrot car kit has all notifications fired over bluetooth.

so switching the s-voice and nav to MONO works with bluetooth, but the a2dp or whatever protocol it uses normally doesnt work.
however calls are done using a2dp, so wtf?
can someone make a quick app that just forces ONLY s-voice and NAV in to mono?
the apps out there make everything go mono or nothing at all...sucks for voice call quality
I needed to revive this thread as a search for my problem led me to it.
1) Is anyone able to play a video on the S3 (GT-I9300 4.1.2) and stream the sound from the video to the car while connected via Bluetooth?
I am not.
2) S3 notification sounds do not play via the car's speakers when receiving a text message or email etc.
I can make and receive calls just fine and even play music from the S3 via BT by selecting the phone from the list of devices on the car's screen.
Blutooth / Voice App Issue - SOLVED
First of all this does work on my 2009 Highlander, but it's a bit Kuldgy.
BT Mono allows my voice app to work, but by itself it's not a solution. You have to activate it manually before using S-Voice, Google Voice or AVX. It opens the connection and has to be activated each time or it can be set to reconnect automatically…. Killing my radio.
Download the free version (I can’t access the play store to give you the link) and see if it works manually. If it works for your test then the rest should work as well.
Install Tasker:
Create a task to keep the screen from locking when your state is Bluetooth connected to the car device.
Create a Task (you don’t need it in a profile)
- Set bluetooth on (in case it’s off)
- Load BT mono (with auto on enabled in the BT mono app)
- Wait ~400MS
- Load App AVX (or S-Voice, or whatever)
- Wait 9 seconds
- Kill BT mono
- Kill BT mono root (it wasn’t always killing BT mono)
I’ve been thinking about trying to simply reboot the BT (BT off then wait then BT on) rather than kill an app.
You can add the task to your home screen as a widget…. Still not safe to do while driving.
That’s where GMD Gestures comes in. You set a swipe command, I use 2 fingers down, to launch the task.
Seems to work pretty well. I can keep my eyes on the road and still use voice commends. You do need to hang up the phone when you’re done talking, but I had to do that with Siri.
I still wish there was a force mono on all connections app, but I still haven’t seen one. AVX just added the ability to force mono for speech, it’s worked for other people, but I’m still trying to figure out why it doesn’t work for me (he's had reports that the Note 2 doesn't like his solution, Kudos to him for trying to add this).
Hope this helps
****UPDATE****
BT Mono may work for me because I'm rooted. According to the app on the store (pro version) Apparently Samsung, in an effort to prevent call recording, blocks the ability to re-route the microphone.
Hi
OK this is not strictly a bluetooth headset its actually analogue pluged into my laptop.
I have got music playing via Bluetooth
It also receives calls from the phone via BT and the headset can hear the caller and I can speak via the headset mic
so all is quite good.
Question is can you enable a delay to answer, so the phone rings at least once. Currently it just answers and is quite seamless if it was not for the music player die down I would not know someone is calling me.
Perhaps I should be using some application on the phone or PC to configure this. Perhaps someone can suggest a good PC dialer for bluetooth that has these options.
Any other tips on using BT via a laptop and headset would be great.
cheers.
questions go into the questions forum
Hi guys, i've been searching the internet with no avail, so now i hope the collective wisdom of XDAdevs can help me out.
I frequently need to do presentation on various places, and i fond thatO holding a microphone gets old really quick. I also believe in using my devices to the limit and beyond. I currently own a Plantronics edge bluetooth headset and a G3 phone.
so what I need is a way to use my bluetooth headset as a wireless microphone. In essence, what i need is to use the voice input on my bluetooth, transmit it to the phone, process it (if i want to) and output the result on real time to the 3.5 microphone jack, which i will connect to whatever sound system the room provides. Some apps I tried does the first part well enough, but unfortunately it transmits the output back to the bluetooth headset, and has no option to redirect it to the microphone jack. Can anyone help please? Much obliged.
Ps: my work frequently requires me to make phone calls without touching my phone or my headset. Can anyone recommend a good way to make the bluetooth headset phone 'listen' for keywords and voice dial my contacts selected numbers without me (or others) ever touching the phone or headset? Many thanks!
So, I just got a brand new Gear S yesterday. I have it paired to my Jabra bluetooth earpiece and it shows connected to call audio and media audio. However, when someone calls me and I answer the call from my watch all of the sounds still come through the watch itself and do not go to my bluetooth. Am I doing something wrong or is my bluetooth not compatible or whats going on here? Does anyone have any thoughts on this or ideas for me?

Under BT settings, if you select your headset, then the gear icon, is "Call audio" checked?
I don't have my watch yet, so I may be very wrong, but here's what I understand:
There are really two phones here, the watch and your mobile phone. Both will pair with the headset individually, so for example when using the watch without the phone you can use the headset for the call. Your phone will also connect via bluetooth to the watch and to the headset. So if you are using the phone and the watch and the headset all together (i.e. watch is not in standalone using its own sim for a call) then your bluetooth headset should be connected to the phone, not the watch.
There are some bluetooth headsets that can connect to multiple devices simultaneously. I'm not sure if yours is one of them (although I bet the gear circle should do this well).

Yes, call audio and media audio are both checked. Maybe I'll connect the Bluetooth to the phone today and call myself and see what happens. Any other ideas anyone?
