[Q] Phone Audio out via 3.5mm Plug - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have a BlueAnt bluetooth set in my car but it keeps dropping out and sounds crap.
I have a proper Samsung Car mount with a 3.5mm Audio jack that connects to my Audio in on the Car stereo.
Using this, I can play music from the SGS2 and hear things like GPS software instructions on the car speakers.
The question is, how do I get the phone side of things to play via the 3.5mm jack and use the built in phone MIC for the pickup?
Ie same as speaker phone but coming through the car speakers instead of the phone speaker.
Surely this is just a setting / registry change etc?
Neil.

Using Bluetooth speakerphone and 3.5mm jack simultaneously

OK so here's what I want to do.
I'm currently my Hero as a kar kit by plugging it in via my cars aux input. I also permanently use my phone to play my favorite tunes via the aux input. So when I get a call the music pauses and continues when I'm done talking.
I'm now interested in buying a bluetooth speakerphone as the hero does not have echo cancellation and audio calls echo's back horribly in my car.
Will I be able to pair the bluetooth speakerphone/headset and have music playing via the 3.5mm jack at the same time? Will calls be handled via the Bluetooth device or the audio jack?
Maybe you could ask a Mod to move this to General -> Q&As? It isn't Hero specific & you could get a bigger audience. You should mention what version of Android you'll be running though.

Ah ok, thanks for the tip.
I went ahead and bought the Bluetooth speaker without knowing the outcome. When the phone is plugged into the 3.5mm jack a headphone icon is displayed. When the bluetooth device is connected, a different bluetooth paired icon is displayed.
So what happens is exactly what I wanted - When listening to music via the 3.5mm the audio is played via the car stereo. When a call comes in the music gets paused and the audio get routed the bluetooth speaker.
Inexpensive and simple car-kit solution.
Glad you got a result - & that you posted on it
What kit did you buy to do this? I am looking to do the same!

[Q] Audio switch/router

I’m looking for a program that toggles the sound between the wired headset and the speaker.
The problem is that i have a car holder with 3.5mm plug and I want to have the ability to select between speaker and headphone/3.5mm plug. Now I don’t hear anything if the phone is connected and the car radio are off.
not sure which is which and which is the best, but try AudioRoute
or AutoAudioRoute or Zevele's AutoLoudspeaker

[Q] Phone Call Audio thru the Car Dock's Line Out

When making a phone call using the official Samsung Car Dock, the caller's audio comes from the phone's internal speaker instead of the line out on the dock. To make matters worse, the dock blocks the internal speaker making it very hard to hear the phone call.
Is there a way to have the audio come thru the dock to my stereo? I have the AUX out connected directly to my stereo; and I checked the setting to pass audio thru the dock. Music and Navigation all send the audio to my stereo thru the dock; but phone calls are using the phone's internal speaker.
Previously, when I had the cable plugged in to the headphone out jack, the phone calls would play thru the stereo with no problem.
Any help or ideas? Hopefully, I'm just missing a simple setting somewhere...

[Q]Bluetooth priority over 3.5mm jack

Hi,
I'll like to know if it is possible to have bluetooth audio streaming as the main output source?
I've a sony ericsson MW600 bluetooth headset and it works perfectly with my Samsung galaxy S2. it allows me to stream audio from my phone to MW600, and i managed to hook up the MW600 to my portable speakers, which "transformed" them into wireless speakers.
However, i have a special requirement which needs to output my voice in realtime (with some lag) to the "wireless" speakers through bluetooth streaming. I managed to find to find apps such as "AMic" which works perfectly using my setup.
But the samsung galaxy s2's default mic is quite nosiy, so i bought a mini 3.5mm jack mic. when i plug it in, the 3.5mm jack took priority over my bluetooth audio streaming.
Is there a way to have the 3.5mm work as a mic, but still having the audio stream through bluetooth?

Car dock audio plus bluetooth question

I have a car dock and my car has bluetooth. Right now I can only choose one device to stream music to. The phone can stream music to both the bluetooth and headphone jack at the same time. Why can't it stream though both the bluetooth and the car dock. This is a work around to the horrible bluetooth audio quality. I can use my bluetooth to skip and reverse and nice crisp audio comes out of the cable. Have anyone solve this problem.
