Did some searching, and didn't find an answer/solution to my problem: Every time I connect my Bluetooth headset to my phone, it enables Media Audio, even though I repeatedly disable it in the settings. Has anyone found a way to permanently disable Media Audio? I don't want anything but phone calls routed to the headset. As a matter of fact, when it's connected (and Media Audio is enabled) all notifications and ringtones are routed to the headset, so if I'm not wearing the headset (and I'm not right next to my phone) I don't hear it ring. Once Media Audio is disabled, it rings from the phone.
I use the "Autostarts" app. You should be able to disable that using it.

that's weird. Even if I have media going through the BT, the phone rings/notifications come through both the phone speaker and the headset.

If you have it, can you tell me if it's possible to disable it using the app? Even though it's only $1.50 for the app, I'm not keen on spending the money for it, if it won't fix my problem.

Mine behaved normally up until recently. Now, Media Audio must be unchecked for rings and notifications to sound from the handset.

I have the same exact problem... Did you ever find a solution?

Nope. I even installed Autostarts (as previously suggested) and have had no luck in changing the behavior.
With Bluetooth on and paired/ connected to a headset (I use a Jambox in my case).
If the phone is muted or set to vibrate only, then no problem.
But if the phone has Sound On (ringtone comes on with a call), I answer the call and the call does not go to the earphone speaker on the phone or the Jambox but to the phone speaker instead.
Pressing the Speaker or the Headset icons during the call does nothing.
I can also hang up the call from the Jambox. So it has the call but not the sound.
I can hear hissing turning on and off on the Jambox as I press the Headset icon, as if it is attempting to send audio over but it stays with the phone.
Muting the phone or setting it to vibrate cures the problem. So does turning off Bluetooth. Restarting the phone does not help.
Can anyone please replicate?
Tried to cram as much info into the title as possible.
My mom's phone will turn on the bottom right option (during a call) called Bluetooth Headset when she makes and receives calls in her car. When this setting is on, she is effectively muted, and no one can hear her, but if she turns the option off, then the car's mic picks her voice up as usual.
This only started happening to her a few days ago and I couldn't find any option that she may have clicked to cause this. Any help would be appreciated, and thanks in advance.
I don't mind my screen turning on when I'm holding the phone. But it's a problem when I'm using my bluetooth headset. I can answer/end/call/etc all from the buttons on my headset. I don't want to have to interact with my phone when I want to be hands-free.
The problem is that my phone will "wake up" when I receive a call or when the call ends. If it's in my pocket, sometimes it will start going "BEEP BEEP BEEP" as numbers are dialed or apps are changed or the mute button gets activated, etc. So when I receive a call on my headset I have to also remove it from my pocket and turn the screen off. The same thing goes when I end a call from my headset.
How can I stop my device from notifying me by turning on the screen when I have my bluetooth headset connected? Honestly, I wouldn't mind a solution which works without the headset as well. I am fine with the auditory notification of a call. I don't need the hassle of also dealing with the screen unless I want to answer a call. For example, I want to ignore a call-- so I have to both hit the volume down to silence it as well as turn the screen off.
Hi all
At work I use bluetooth headphones/headset for CALLS
So I am never wearing the headphones/headset unless I am on a PHONE CALL
My problem is that as bluetooth is connected only the phone call sound is coming from the phone - However none of my notifications are showing
Also bonus question (lol) - When someone calls me when im in a call it cuts me off for 3 seconds while the phone is telling me who is calling, how do I turn that off?
Can someone please help me with these issues
