Every thread I have found relating to this dies out without a definitive answer. I have a droid x (currently running unrooted verizon gingerbread 2.3.3) and lg hbs 700 bluetooth headset. Music and phone calls work fine but alarm and notification sounds play over the phones speaker even when the bluetooth headset is connected.
Is there a way to get the system sounds to play over the bluetooth headset too (basically ALL sound is directed to bluetooth, just like if a wired headset was plugged in) or is this a limitation of the droid x, or the ROM, or the headset?

I have tried a number of ROM upgrades for my Himalaya, but I cant seem to find one that supports outputting music to my Plantronics P590 bluetooth headset. Using it for the telephone is fine, and it can receive music from my Nokia.
Any recomendations?

I have looked at those links, and even tried the bt upgrade that was posted in one of them, but I'm still not getting anywhere. The only change I got is that when I'm not using the phone, all the sound is muted and I can't control the volume anymore.
Has anyone out there upgraded a Himalaya in any way resulting in the ability to output audio to a stereo bluetooth headset?
from what i've heard, there was a succesful one with a motorola headset. it has A2DP support.
I have a weird problem running the latest CM7 updated 5/28, stock froyo radios, and 2.6.35.9-cyanogenmod+slayherathomebrewed#3. Im using a wired heaset because i cant find a bluetooth i like for one reason or another. With th wired headset, when placing or receiving a call, i have to switch to speaker then back to headset to get audio in the headset. works fine for music though. any ideas?
TIA
Droid RAZR Maxx, stock ROM, rooted.
I recently installed an Alpine CDE-HD137BT stereo in my car, which has quite a bit of bluetooth functionality. However, I do have quite a few issues connecting my Razr's BT with the Alpine.
-Sometimes the BT icon on the stereo will light up, and the BT icon on the RAZR will turn blue, indicating that they are paired. However, even though they showing as being paired and connected, it occassionally won't play any audio through the stereo (in fact, the audio will play through the RAZR's speaker). This some times happens with CALLS as well.
-Sometimes the two devices will connect fine, which then automatically causes my phone to start playing music from whatever music app was being used last; the music will play fine through the car stereo's speakers for maybe 20 seconds, followed by a shrill, loud, high frequency tone that only goes away by switching the source or by turning the radio off/on (by turning the car off/on).
-Sometimes the phone will pair perfectly to the stereo, and I make a call before listening to any music. The call is executed beautifully, but then following the call, audio will not stream through the stereo, nor will any subsequent calls work via bluetooth.
-(known problem) the specific Pandora fucntions on the stereo do not seem to work with this device.
Anyone else have the above issues? If so, what did you do to remedy them?
Thanks in advance!
never had those problems before but I now how pissy bluetooth between phones and radios can be, I had a pioneer AVIC D-3 with the BTB-200 bluetooth module. When I first got it I had to manually pair it each time and the problem was that when setting up the pairing I had to have the radio discover the phone instead of the phone discovering the radio or vice versa I can't remember but that solved almost all of the problems I had then, every once in a blue moon my current radio doesn't auto pair, but its not a huge deal as this one doesn't do A2DP audio streaming it only does the Hand Free Profile and text message alerts.
Hi ppl,
Just got an s3, and I'm having a problem with BT performance. I have 2 old headsets, a proplantronics, and a jabra bt350. When paired with my old TP2, ALL audio came through the headset; handset didn't ring, custom ringtones came through the headset, and navigation directions came through the headset. With the s3, handset rings (get a generic ringtone on headset), and navigation directions are on the handset. S-voice works on the headset. What I want this thing to do is output audio the same way the headphones do, but I don't like dealing with wires! That's the POINT of BT. Any suggestions?
Thnx

Are you talking about playing mp3's? And if so, what program are you using? Just the stock audio player?
no, don't really care to listen to music through these BT headsets. I do not want the handset to ring when BT is connected, and I want navigation instructions over the headset as well. Old TP2, with same headsets had no problem doing either.
Hi everyone,
I've been using cm on my razr for a few months. The problem has not shown up until recently, when i moved into cm10.1 by hashcode and his friends about 10 days ago.
Basically, i found my wired headset not working any more. It's a pair of stereo earphones with a microphone on it. I'm sure it works with several different devices (so it's compatible) including other moto cellphones and ipad, and also with my razr when it was running on cm10. But after upgrading things go weird: when i plug it in the phone jack, no notification appears, which should act like older cm10 telling me i'm using a wired headset. And, of course, sounds don't go into the headset, but still the phone's speaker.
I've tried searching the web, and googled a post (but i forgot the keywords so i couldn't find it anymore....); in the post the guy said his samsung, too, doesn't work with headset, and when he put the volume to the highest, he can hear some scraches in the headset. I followed his idea, but installed an app at first, which re-routes the sound into headset manually. Then, the speaker became silence as expected, but i could only find "scraches in the headset" as that guy did in his post. And i can hear large clicks & pops when plugging the earphone into & out of the jack.
Does anyone have some ideas on it? seems no previous discussion i cound find.... Thanks in advance.
ps. none of the previously working apps works, including skype, some media players, the integrated music player apollo too. The phone calls can be heard using Bluetooth headset, but no again with Wired headset.
