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.

Hallo,
what can I do to have the following behaviour:
I need to hear an arriving phone call on the mobile device even if I have connectet it to a Headphone (bluetooth or cable). (I often carry the activated bluetooth headphone in my bag but than I don't hear anny call because its only ringing in my headphone)
can anybody help me?
Several options. The easiest is when you put your BT headphone in your bag, turn it off. Saves your headphone battery, too.
The 2nd option is to disable A2DP on the phone. There are several apps out there that make this easier than going into Settings. I use a Today screen plug-in called A2DP Toggle, www.teksoftco.com, free. But the version I have is buggy.
The 3rd option is to disable BT on the phone, again there are tools out there that make this easier. A2DP Toggle can be set to also disable BT when you turn off A2DP.
I have never heard of a tool that lets you direct specific notifications to the various outputs but it makes perfect sense. There should be lots of options that we just aren't given in WM, like keeping the phone from turning off the backlight during a phone call.

The problem on this way is, that it takes some time to turn the BT headphone on. So I sometimes lost a call, because I was to slowly...
My BT Headphone has a standby Time from more less 5 days! - so battery is no problem.
The way to disable A2DP brings that I can't use e.g. Voice Command over BT Headphone, isn't it?
So maybe there is no solution for my problem?
(The Athena cant "talk" quit... so I need the Headphone, when I get Calls - I don't like that everybody how is around me hear what the "caller" tells me...)
Over the weekend I had headphones plugged into my phone with music streaming (via TCPMP) and a call came in. It switched the audio over to the external speakers, then paused it, and played the ring tone over the external speakers.
Just what you wanted, right? I'm using the AP4 ROM, don't know if that is the difference or just using TCPMP.
I am sure this may be an issue for some people. my car stereo has bluetooth that links with my phone and mutes the car stereo and turns on speaker phone when a call comes in. i like the fact that it mutes the stereo since i usually have it very loud, but my problem is i cant set it to default to the phone earpiece and not the speakerphone, even when i answer a call and press the button to keep it on the ear piece, it switches right back to the stereo a second later, i press it again and it stays on the phone. i have had this issue with all my other phones as well and it drives me nuts. is there anyone who can come up with a fix for this?
i appreciate any input anyone may have on this.....
thanks
It is not a problem with the phone, it is to do with bluetooth profiles as they are designed to communicate with TWO devices not THREE. I also use car stereo for playing my music. I do not get that many calls while driving so I never use my bt headphones.
Moved to proper forum.
sorry about posting in the wrong forum. I am only trying to get it to default to the handset when i pick up a call. i do not use it to play music, so i have no need for that to even be an option, i just want to be able to pick up a call on my phone, and have it stay on my phone while it uses the bt link to mute and un mute the stereo. i find the speakerphones in car stereos to be totally worthless for talking, but i find the mute feature very useful.
I absolutely love the Titan but i think i've found a bluetooth bug that makes me want to throw it off a wall.
Try pairing your Titan to your car or bluetooth headset?
When I'm getting out of my car(s) I deactivate bluetooth or hit the button to so the audio switches back to the phone. What happens is I can still hear the person but the mic doesn't work. Anyone else have this issue? This happens about half of the time. I'm thinking its a HTC bluetooth issue.
I posted this in the WP7 thread on neogaf and someone else has found out he has the same problem. Its annoying because i'm trying to finish a conversation and all of a sudden i realize the person on the other end can't hear what I'm saying. My Focus or iPhone's never had this problem in any of my vehicles.
My titan has picked up the habit of connecting to my PC via bluetooth upon an incoming call. I switch the bluetooth to speakerphone in call several times a day; never had this issue.

You can turn off the speakerphone function on your pc by viewing bluetooth devices, right click your phone, properties, 'Services' tab, uncheck 'Headset Audio Gateway'. Now the phone will slow mute the audio to your pc and start ringing when you get a call.
Bluetooth music streaming to my ford sync nav is ALLOT better quality than my htc arrive. When it switches to voice thou... its horrible. Its like a registry setting needs to be adjusted to increase the BT call volume, not the music streaming...
Here's my "personal" issue:
I have Bluetooth stereo in my car, but phone calls don't sound good at all on it. So I would like for tasker to only let the phone handle phone calls on the phone itself, not through the stereo.
Ideas?

It should be doable, I would set up a profile with 2 contexts,
1st Bluetooth connected
2nd phone ringing or phone connected
Your task would then be speakerphone on. You may need to have a wait in there of a couple seconds if speaker phone isn't coming on.
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.
