I have searched the past threads and did not see any about bluetooth audio issue. I have 2 plantronics headsets that both Paired properly paired 2XXPlantronics and a 220Plantronics. I am on stock GB. Is there an app or setting that I am missing to push all audio through the bluetooth? I tried super Mono but that just stopped audiop playback on my X2 and did not give me any audio through my headset. I have tried with both headsets. Thanks in advance. I think after some review this is a gingerbread issue but with all the developers hear I am hoping there is a fix or some can come up with a fix.
The headsets must support media audio in addition to phone audio. This has been the case since day one. If your headset only supports phone audio, it won't for example pay music. Don't know if anyone has tried tweaking the bluetooth stack to get around this, but the limitation has existed since before smartphones came around.

Anyone got the (stock) fm radio to go over BT?
I use a Plantronics 3XX. On my old HTC Touch Pro II, I could play music thru it with a particular setting in WM 6.5 and I think even WM 6.1 had it too. My thoughts are that it's more an Android issue regarding routing.
[EDIT] - I found on Market an app called Bluetooth Switcher for $2.99 that might work. There is also a FREE trial version for you to try out before making a purchase to see if it works on your hardware.
Bluetooth Switcher trial
Just tried it. Opens and has on/off buttons. It does nothing.
I use a Plantronics pro+.
Yes my headsets have worked with an HTC Imagio (Windows modile 6.5) and on my Dell laptop. I am thinking it is an android issue as well. I tried a friends out whos earpiece had A2DP and it worked fine but I already have a bluetooth headset and do not want to spend any more money. Thanks for all of your responses thus far.

Iirc you must have a regular 3.5 mm jack in to listen to the radio.

You have to have a headset plugged into it because it uses the cord as an antenna. No internal antenna. My Sansa MP3 player's FM radio works the same way.
Now, you can use the speaker on the phone for the radio once you have a headset plugged in. So maybe there's a way to route it thru BT if you have a headset for an antenna.
There is an apk called media switch (pro). It may work but mkt says incompatable w/ dx2. I tried the email purchase but it failed. Mkt does not know what works on MY dx2 as it also said spb shell 3d was incomp. But it works *****great-****. I had to do the email buy.

Everybody knows the standard mp3 player provided with Manila is useless. It's sloooooow, it doesn't have many options etc. So I've been using S2P with a "wire" headphones since I bought HTC HD.
This year Santa Clause gave me a bluetooth headset and there is suddenly a problem. The headset pairs with the HD at once. It has a clear sound, all the buttons works fine (Play/Pause, Next/Previous, Volume Up/Down) but... only with the default player. I cannot operate S2P with the bluetooth headset. Everytime I push any button standard player intercepts it and S2P absolutely ignores it.
Did anyone has the similar problem and was able to solve it?
Hi,
you can check this link...I had the same problem...I have installed the cab file in the link provided and everything works fine now..

Are there any apps available for the Atrix to play audio over a mono bluetooth headset? I have tried the Super BT Mono Froyo and BTMono apps from the android marketplace and have not been able to get them to work.
Any suggestions (Besides using an A2DP headset)?
I 2nd that! Device not usable to me w/o this option. I've been able to enable this with all my other devices for the last 4 years at least. Not allowed to have both ears covered at work, BT hands-free only option to listen to podcasts at work. Makes 10 hour days seem like forever since I got Atrix and lost this ability. Not sure how many others willing to pay for this, but I would commit a large donation for sure to anyone who has the ability to get something working on the Atrix.
I'd love to findng something that does this as well. Any thoughts?
BTMono works well for me, but I wish Android would support it natively.

I tried btmono but it didn't work for me. What's the version of your android?
It was actually a feature on the stock Froyo build but for some reason it disappeared when I switched to GB. I've always thought it was just my headset though. I had a Plantronics Explorer but I lost it around the time I switched so I don't know if that was the issue.

Anyone know if its technically possible to get the sound routed to standard bluetooth 'hands-free' device. I know I've successfully done this on all my past devices with help of 3rd party software. I see several iterations of software for android out right now, but none have worked for me on Atrix.
I know buying a AD2P headset would be the ideal software free workaround. But I've tried a lot of bluetooth hands-free out there, and the one I have now is just so comfortable, I just can't switch to A2DP until it absolutely dies.
I've seen a few people requesting this across other forums, wondering if the Atrix is even accessible programming wise to do this?
thanks
I don't understand your question. I have a bluetooth headset which I play music on, and which auto cuts music for calls, has a mic, you can dial by voice command, etc.
It's hands free like any other bluetooth headset other than the power button, volume buttons, etc.
What exactly are you asking?
I believe OP is requesting any App that can be used to Hear Music on a Mono Bluetooth Headset which do not support A2DP Profile.
Using regular Bluetooth without A2DP profile will allow us to Just make /Receive Calls, not for Music.
I also tried BT Mono, but it didn't worked for Atrix and eager to know any other way we can able to hear music thru regular Bluetooth Headset

SakDroid is correct. Not all bluetooth headsets support the AD2P profile, and some phones won't play music to them for a reason unknown to me. I've had 4 phones with this same bluetooth headset and only one of them natively would play music with it. All others I had to install app to redirect sound...such as the referred to BTmono. So I know it's possible on Android, just wondering if there is something preventing it on the Atrix, or just hasn't been developed yet.
I would gladly pay to get development started on this. Since I would have to pay money for one supporting A2DP, but you know how it is when you have that one that fits/works just perfectly. I've bought a few that do support the profile, but ended up returning them all, as they just weren't comfortable to wear very long.
Btmono worked for me on my samsung epic 4g on froyo....then sprint sent an ota update to their version of gingerbread 2.3.6. it is very phone specific with what your carrier puts out I think because my wife has an stock htc evo running 2.3.5, and my brother has samsung epic touch running 2.3.7 and both of those different phones work fine with it. So what did I do....I found a custom rom that was built off 2.2.1 froyo. I didn't read the full thread so I don't know what exactly what phone this is for. Only option is to get to know everything you can do with you phone, root it and try different roms. Young and old. Also...on the eipc forum we had a discussion about this....they all had the same issues with gb...even the custom roms. Would love for the developers to learn a work around, since is up their ally...but shortly after there was a good leak for ice cream sandwich which I tried and its pretty good...just a bit buggy for me. When all the kniks are work out will be moving onto that and bypassing any gb that is out for the epic. So my advise, again, is just try different stock roms first....just to find out which ones...if any will work. Then you will know what custom one to look for...if you into that sorta thing.

Hi guys,
I'm using MW600 bluetooth headset on my X10. I change original headset with my Sennheiser MX 760. Sound quailty is very good. But I don't use MW600 with 2.2 & 2.3 custom roms
I connect it with X10. I start to listen to music. But I have short interruptions on music at various times.
Do you have a bluetooth headset is working properly with 2.2 and 2.3 custom roms?
PS: 3,5 mm audio jack is important for me. Bluetooth device must have this.
Sorry for bad English
Actually I have the same problem as well with my bluetooth fm transmitter using WB CM6. Never had a problem with bluetooth using 2.1.
Any solution to this?
Hi,
I use Trips 1.6.3 and when I have WLan activated I get interrupted bluetooth music. Without WLan everything is OK.

Can you share your rom's link with me?
custom roms have some trouble with bluetooth headsets, because my MW600 works on stock rom, and also work with my computer, with AD2P support (the devise show the title of the song/movie)
Is everyone using MW600 with this phone? Nobody have a different headset
Hi NS_85,
I forgot to say that I normally use a Nokia BH-103 and also have dropouts:-(
Does anybody know a rom which has no bt problems with a headset.
Ralf
2.1 roms are really the only solution for now. You can use EWjet if you want something snappier.

Do you use MW600 on EWjet perfectly?
Yes, MW600 runs perfectly on the EWjet. No skipping during music playback.

Which version do you use?
I tried it but I had this problem:
I pair my MW600 bluetooth handset with my phone. I open android stock music player, mediascape, winamp or etc. My phone returning to the previous screen when I press one of the media control keys While the phone on home screen when I press media control keys, screen loading again and again
media control keys do not work on EWjet.
The last one I used was EWJET 2.1.B.0.1 V001ex. MW600 was fine with it.
I am now on stock 2.1.B.0.1 though. Prefer when I am in control of the modifications
Edit: The problem you are experiencing is caused by that WP7 music player. Disable headset button control in it's settings.

I tried it but, it doesn't fix the problem. Which rom do you use?
I have a Nokia BH-505.
Used to have sporadic blackouts on Froyo, curiously much less with GB (cobrato 1.7.15). Happens every now and then, nothing major - do bear in mind that audio notifications will interrupt your audio stream and that this may be causing the interruptions.
IMHO this has more to do with the BT stack and the ROM than the headset itself.
I don't understand what you are asking for re. the 3.5 mm jack - we ARE talking about BT headsets, right?
Hope this helps

quite simple to replace the in ears with better ones. I heard the MW600 and the sound is not the best. My nokia sounds far better especially in the low frequencies.
btw. the problem ist mostly solved with current GB rom.

I have used different BT stereo receivers with it (both 2.1 and 2.3.3 stock):
MW600 works fine, but I don't see track info
Samsung MS3000 works, but make sure you turn the unit on before activate BT in order to connect automatically (this one lacks bass)
Nokia BH-214 works well, but it's replaced by BH-111
Sony DRC-BT30 works well, but I lost it recently.
Isn't it a known fact that Bluetooth and WiFi don't play well together? I seem to remember discussing this issue when I bought my first BT mouse (Logitech MX900) for my then brand new laptop...
Anyway, I think issues were solved by some firmware upgrade of mouse and an improved wifi-driver that addressed the issue of BT-interference. Somehow I think that changes to kernel and/or wifi-critical files may disrupt some of the "built-in" fixes for simultaneous wifi/BT connections, which results in erratic BT-behavior.
So, I think that issues are not really related to the headset rather than the internal bluetooth/wifi-stack. As for how to fix it... Alert the dev's!

What are you running (stock, custom rom, rooted)? By default, hands free profile is not enabled.
Once rooted in Gingerbread, there are two lines that need to be edited in build.prop
In Honeycomb, I haven't seen a working hands free profile for my headset yet.

Works on HC and I think also in GB.
1. Download Root Explorer.
2. Launch it and go to /System/build.prop.
3a. Open build.prop in a text editor and edit the following lines:
ro.ril.reject.cs.ss.enabled=0
ro.ril.reject.mo.ussd.enabled=0
ro.phone.function=1
3b. And edit the following lines to change bluetooth headset profile:
ro.bt.profiles = 4270403
service.brcm.bt.ag_supported = 1
4. Save all the changes made and reboot your device.
My bluetooth headset works perfectly!.
could i do it without rooted???
You will need root access to edit that file. In the above build.prop example, the top part enables telephony. The lower part enables bluetooth hands free profile. On my wifi only Flyer, my bluetooth headset works great with the edit on GB. The same edit does not work for my headset on HC. YMMV, and I'm still working on getting mine working in HC.

Nope. It doesn't. Curious: what headset are you using? My old Plantronics HS was picky even on GB. It won't connect at all on HC using all the same edits. Glad to hear that some headsets work. But debating about whether my headset should work under HC or not won't help the OP, who is on stock GB. The OP can s-off, root, and edit the two lines for HFP and be good to go.
My work fine using the FlyHoney V1 ROM and it also worked in stock GB. My headphones are Lubix model UBHS-NC1.

Cool, but to clarify, we aren't discussing BT stereo audio headphones. Those work out of the box in stock GB. My Rocketfish BT headphones work great also for audio, but we're discussing hands free headsets for making calls, etc.

Just checking, as I am troubleshooting why my basic Plantronics earpiece won't work under Honeycomb with these edits. I've scoured the internet only to find that most others on Honeycomb tablets haven't been able to get basic HFP headsets to fully work yet.
Do you use your headset for handsfree calls or chat in applications like GrooveIP, or are you just using it to listen to audio? I notice that your Bluetooth headset supports AD2P for stereo audio, which is supported out of the box on the Flyer. Can you confirm that you are also able to use your mic?

I've paired 2 headsets to my Flyer
1. Jabra 325s - pairs but will not attempt to connect whatsoever.
2. Samsung HM3700 - pairs and connects but can only be used to listen to media playback. Skype calls can be made with BT enabled and the sound bounces back to speakers after one word from the test call.
