[Q] ICS Audio Streaming to Laptop - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
So I always used to stream my audio from my SGS2 to my laptop, and I kind of miss it now that I've moved onto ICS. I recently tried moving back to a GB rom to see if it was infact the phone causing the issues , and that seems to be the case.
When I pair my laptop to my SGS2 with GB installed, it installs all of the bluetooth drivers necessary for streaming.
However, when I pair with an ICS ROM, it installs nothing. I can still do file transfers, but no audio connection whatsoever.
Could this be a problem with the bluetooth stack or ICS drivers?
Has anyone got media streaming from ICS -> Windows 7 working?
I have included some pictures to indicate the difference.

Has anyone else run into this problem, or am I the only one that likes streaming audio from android to windows 7?

That maybe because ics does not come with bluetooth rsap (remote sim access profile). I guess streaming audio also comes under it

Same Here!!
I'm having a similar problem with my G2X. I can't stream bluetooth music nor can I transfer files. I'm looking for some drivers for this cause I normally download music to my laptop then transfer stuff to my phone. I have Hellfire Sandwich 1.6 and running Windows 7 on my PC.

Using Bluetooth Headset - DOES NOT WORK!!!

i was going to buy an bluetooth headset for my htc hero, but before i just wanted to test, whether the bluetooth would work properly. the common datasheets you can find on the internet say that hero supports the bt profile "Headset" so this shouldnt be a problem.
to test the bluetooth-headset-function of my hero, i wanted to use my computer (which has a bt dongle) as the headset. i've done that already before with my nokia n80 and there it worked fine, which means i paired both devices (pc and nokia) and then started the bt service "headset" for the connected phone on my computer. now, that im using htc hero, windows just tells me, that the paired device (hero) has only the active sync service to start (see screenshot).. any idea, what to do?
thx in advance!

Can't help with your specific issue, but my Hero pairs fine with the my Parrot car kit and uses the headset profile.

[Q] Want to see the battery level of the bluetooth headset, any app ?

Hello,
Any application exists to show battery level of the bluetooth headset that is connected to Android device as dummy iphone does ? If not - where to find more info about this problem so some solution can be made under Linux first, than ported to Android ?
TIA
Rus
I'm also very interrested in such an app/widget
me too. I have a Plantronics 855 that lasts a long time, but it'd be cool to see the info on the phone.
me 2
Does it depend on the type of the Bluetooth headset?
Does it have to support showing battery level on the device?
Been looking for an answer to this question for quite some time. Anyone know what the apple app that does this is called?
I have also been looking for this kind of functionality. It's strange, my old sony-ericsson dumphone had this...
Anyway, please if someone knows of an app that can do this, feel free to share!
When my battery gets low on my Motorola Elite Sliver, I get a warning in the notification window. When I click on it the "Accessory Battery Status" screen opens. I think this is what you are wanting right? I would like to know how to get to it anytime, not just when the battery is low. At the top left there is a green phone icon, so I thought I could access it from the settings menu in the phone app, but I can't find it. I also checked the bluetooth settings, but can't find it there either. I am running the latest ICS leak on my Razr Maxx.

[Q] S3 wont stream to TV

Sitting watching a recorded TV show last night which was streaming from a hard drive i have connected to my Xbox360 when suddenly it cut off and another video started to play. Turned out my step son was messing about with his new Note 10.1 tablet and had clicked on the icon to share the video. I have been trying to get this feature to work on my S3 for ages but it doesnt work. I have ensured file share etc is all set up, set to share pics, music and movies. I get the option to scan for devices and select both my xbox and my Panasonic TV that is connected to my WIFI network, one point here is that i can place a tick in the boxes for the various devices but there is no save option, i have to back out from the selection screen. When i go back in later the ticks are no longer there so i am not sure if they are saved. Anyway this is really bugging me as i hate being beat with things like this. I have read loads of postings and i know lots of people have this feature and it "just worked". Has anyone had problems getting it to work and found some step i am perhaps overlooking. Any help appreciated.
I assume you tried it via settings/other settings/dlna?

I'm using BubbleUPnP, found that it's a lot better than the default functionality.

Ok it now gets weird. I installed Bubbleupnp and it worked well. Then found that even without it running that the files on my phone will now do what it should as far as streaming goes. If i go to a video, song or pic, the icon now appears on phone screen to stream directly to TV via xbox 360. Cheers for the help.

Repurpose old phones. But what should they do?

I have an old phone laying around and I want to repurpose it.
First thought was a media server, because it has an SD card slot and WiFi connectivity. But it's relatively slow (1ghz and 512mb ram). Would this work and with which software / ROM could i achieve this?
Then i thought i could use it like an arduino but unfortunately we don't have output pins on there.
What would you use your old phone to?
PS: I thought about security​ cam but nah i dont need that
1GHz 512Mb ram could be enough for a Plex server. What phone do you have?
I use a Galaxy Tab2 as a "HTPC", it can stream 1080p up to 16Mbps and the wifi is the bottleneck: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-2/general/galaxy-tab2-htpc-linux-plex-media-t3596167
Or you can use it to monitor your PC's health status:
- build your own touch screen front panel:
- put the phone next to your keyboard

I previously (a few years ago) had a Sony Xperia RAY (1GHz, 512mb RAM) as my primary phone. I had a 64GB SD Card & Viper 4 Android running a custrom KitKat ROM, so it served as the media player in my car. I also ran navigation software on it, even at the same time. and it was also my phone. It did struggle if I tried switching to another app while navigation was running. I also used it to watch movies (with subtitles on a <4" screen) on my way to work.
I have also used it with a Bluetooth dongle to connect to my ODBII interface of my car, and use it as a real-time monitor of my car.

Audio card disable itself after extended use of headphones?

Hello,
It's been a few days since this problem arise and I'm honestly dumbfounded now. I have the habit of using headphones for an extended period of time, but since a few days ago, every time I use them the audio card seems to disable itself after a few minutes or so. The only way to reactivate it is to do a full reboot, which is really annoying.
I checked the logcat and here's what it says as soon as the problem happens :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I have tried several things :
Changing the kernel
Changing the ROM (Currently running on RR 6.0.0)
Cleaning the jack port
Desinstalling Viper
Also notice in my screenshot that I have indeed unplug the headphone but the phone seems to be unaware of that.
Does somebody else have this problem? How can it be solved, at least restarting the phone
And one more thing : It only happened with the headphones, I tried with Bluetooth speaker and the problem did not happened
Flash miui fastboot rim
Hey,
i'm experiencing the same problem. Whenever i'm using Spotify or watching Youtube for that matter, after some time the audio stops. It makes no difference whether i'm on phone speaker or headphones. Catlog shows the same error message: "audio_hw_primary: out->card_status or adev->card_status offline, try again".
The only way to recover from this error is to reboot. But after some minutes of playing audio the bug strikes again.
I did try to call someone and it still worked, while spotify wasn't able to output audio. @[email protected] what do you mean by: "Flash miui fastboot rim"?
Regards
