[Q] No audio after turning off Bluetooth - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

After i get out of my car where my bluetooth was connected, i'll turn BT off. However, sometimes the system still trys to push audio through BT, not the speakers of the phone. I know i can get around this by going to my Youtube App, and there's a litle icon at the top that looks like a tv with a wifi signal. i can touch that, and it will ask if i want BT or local (i forget what it really said). i press the local and get it back.
is there an easier way to do this? I have the ME7 build, rooted via the method provided here. I have a Hyundai Sontata, 2011.
Thanks

I got around it with soundabout from the market. Lets you control various outputs during different media modes.

I didn't like that app.
and YT now changed their interface. I can go to google's Play Music App, and they have the icon that i can use to disconnect the Bluetooth.
any other ideas?

2.1 Rom Bluetooth simple secure pairing (SSP)

Hey all,
I have been using my Eris with a bluetooth Stereo for a quite a while, but when I rooted the phone over to a 2.1 ROM it started using Simple Secure Pairing (SSP) when authenticating the bluetooth headphones. My car stereo doesn't support this (its brand new too...).
So, the question is has anyone ever looked into disabling SSP and forcing it to use the old static key method of pairing in 2.1?
I am not adverse to diving in and doing the dev work, I just wanted to make sure someone hasn't already done it. If I do need to dive in does anyone know if its possible to disable it via a config file, or will I need to backport the bluez stack?
Thanks for all the great work,
traetox
I too am having this issue. Worked fine in 1.5 but ever since root it will play audio through pioneer head unit but phone won't connect. I will patiently await a fix.

Oh, so that's what's up.
I'm having a similar problem with my Jabra Cruiser bluetooth speakerphone/FM transmitter. What mine does, though, is it will connect and I can use it to listen to music and do the normal speakerphone functions like it normally would, but none of the media buttons will work anymore. It's not a huge inconvenience, since I mount my phone in the car anyway (long commute). It's only a problem if I need to have Google Navigation in the foreground but still want to change songs.
Patiently waiting. You devs are awesome, if you don't get enough sycophantic slobbering already.
ok, so I did some digging on mine and it turns out that I can pair with a simple bluetooth headset via the '0000' key. But the phone attempts to go through the full key negotiation to connect the "bluetooth headphones." So i can get audio via the headset negotiated connection, but it sounds awful without full AD2P.
I am getting a ROM kitchen setup and will try and map the 1.5 bluez stack onto the 2.1 source and see where that gets me.
Thanks for the input.
Thanks for working on this! I've tried to incorporate some of the Bluetooth files as well as the WLAN.ko from other roms into my Rom but have been unsuccesful. I am running damage control 2.08 that I ported. I was originally unable to get WiFi or Bluetooth to work until I copied the WLAN.ko from the oc patch now both work minus the phone. Don't know if this helps but figured i let you know. If you have those files from a 1.5 Rom I will try them in my port and let you know what the results are.

I have posted several times on this can not get an answer Have the same issues anyone with experience know what I can do?
Here is my situation I have driod eris ee2.1 on verizon before root I could auto connect bt to my pioneer avic d3 with phone audio only I had to manually connect media audio every time but I got used to it but since root I now can connect to media audio only and when I try to connect phone audio it dissconnects in less than a minute I am at a loss as to what to do thought maybe someone has experienced this and figured it out Thanks in advance.

I have a Jabra Crusier, and I'm having an issue with a lot of ROMs where I can not connect to it and stream music over bluetooth. I have found that Aloysius v6 Maps rom by Spencer Moore works well with the bluetooth thing. You may have to connect and disconnect a few times here and there to get it to connect, but it's been the best ROM for it. I used V11 Maps and it worked for a little while, but stopped connecting properly just recently.
There are a few known bugs with v6, but I'm fiddling with V11 to try and get the bluetooth to stay perm. Once I get it, I'll let Spencer Moore know and get him any new updates I come across.
Just an update. I am able to pair and connect to phone using white widow Rom.

Bluetooth Radio

Hi All
I've got the HTC Leo (radio 2.06.51.07). I'm having a problem with the Bluetooth functionality.
My car has the Ford Microsoft Sync capability in it. The phone is troublesome, the music player (via A2DP) won't change tracks from the car interface, only works sometimes. The play button doesn't always work either..it works fine provided I change tracks via the phone interface. I have tried a soft reset and hard reset.
I want to try another radio version ( I think this is related to the Bluetooth, right?). Do I need to reinstall my ROM everytime I do this or can I do it on the fly?
Also, which radio versions will work with my ROM version? (1.66.405.2 (766410 WWE)
I just wanted to say i have the EXACT same problem as you with my Nissan nav system + bluetooth. The phone connects within 10 seconds or so after starting the car, but getting music to begin playing is a real chore and behaves as erratically as you described. Often I'll lean on the FF/RW keys to force it to shuffle, then hit pause or play and it will just start working all the sudden. Once it is going I can choose songs just fine, but if I try to pause good luck getting it unpaused.
Yes that's the same thing I'm having.
I noticed today that if I remove the phone from the sleeve (the leather pouch we were supplied with the phone) it seems to work more often?
I notice that with my bluetooth headphones, if the phone is inside my jacket pocket, the bluetooth reception is really crap... the music starts to cut out as its playing.
I wonder if it's something to do with the reception or bandwidth available over A2DP? Maybe I'll drop the sound quality of the A2DP right down and see if it works better then.
i had similar problems trying to connect the phone to my parrot hands free kit in my car (i still havent got it to work). try radio 2.11, its not the latest but seems to be the most stable. you with have to install hard SPL on your device, but wont have to re-install the ROM. after that give it a try, if you still have issues, have a look at tweaking the bluetooth settings through an app called hd2tweak. there is a section called bluetooth which has a few options you can change, you may need to increase the bitpool. also check that you have added the bluetooth device on the phone and that it is an authorised device and the incomming connections are accepted (this is in the standard bluetooth options). also try disabling SAP (SIM access) and see if that helps, i have to have this disabled to use my blueotooth headset, no idea why though
Is your Bluetooth always visible turned on?
If not, slide over to the settings tab and select all settings from the menu. Select the Bluetooth icon and it will ask if you want to turn Bluetooth on, tap yes. A screen will appear with the settings button in the upper left corner, tap it. A menu will appear, select the discoverable entry (the binoculars) and make sure the always visible radio button is selected. That should do it. Before making this change, the pioneer Nav. system in my car was having difficulty finding the phone. Since the change everything has worked just fine. I hope this helps.

Hi thanks for the hint... I checked and it is set to always visible but I can see how that could have affected it! Thanks anyway

Thanks for letting me know, I'll give that a go and post the results back. I upgraded the Radio to 2.10.50.28_2 a few nights ago, that didn't seem to make much difference, I'll try the 2.11 (if I can find it!)
Ok I think I have figured out whats going on here. It's the sense player at fault. I switched to windows media player and let it import all my tracks/playlists, and it plays the songs 100% perfect without delay every time. I can even get more track info on the nav screen, like album etc. Pause/Play/Skip work flawlessly.
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!! You are absolutely right!
It works like a dream now. I wonder what the hell it is that is different in the HTC sense player?!
Does anyone know why the HTC sense player ignores some commands but answers others?

[Q] Bluetooth Headset not pairing ICS LPQ

So my Jawbone Prime was connecting fine before I updated to ICS LPQ (was on GB LA4 before) and now it doesn't even show up on the devices list even when I try to re-pair or reset the headset.
I tried 2 different sets to no avail.
Anyone know of a solution?
Connects to A2DP BT Headset (Motorola) but only allows media audio to connect. Phone audio doesnt stick.
ICS has some compatibility issues with certain bluetooth devices.
GB my phone always paired with my car stereo and streamed music without any issues.
So far every ICS release, even official, has caused my phone to reboot after streaming music over BT for 10+ minutes.
Its pretty sad they dropped the ball here. GB worked fine, and they borked it.
Well I can connect my BT keyboard fine. I just tried my Motorola BT earphones which are A2DP and it connects but won't allow phone audio to go through the BT earphones. However Media does go through. At least it detects it.
It doesn't detect it at all on the Jawbone Prime (which is not A2DP).
Update:
I managed to connect my jawbone and actually have 2 phone calls on it. After that I had the phone in my pocket and when I checked maybe 15mins later it had frozen and I had to keep power pressed to shutdown/reboot.
It kind of matches Chakker3D's pattern of working then not working. It's like there's a memory leak in the bluetooth stack? maybe I'm just spitballing here.
What I know is that in GB whenever I deactivated BT it took a good 20-25secs. In ICS it's instant to turn off or on. In GB however there was 0 issues.
I just really hope Samsung addresses it. Or if we are lucky, a dev will rework a rom so this problem is gone.
But from what I can tell, very few are having this problem.

Another update:
Without any intervention on my part other than keeping on trying it finally discovered my BT headpiece. In fact it discovered both.
Now it's still not 100% perfect because it discovers it, connects and immediately disconnects. If I press a button on the headpiece while it connects then it stays connected and it hasn't restarted/locked the phone yet. I even connected my 2nd headset (another Prime) and it worked.
Keeping fingers crossed. Now I need to see what happens when I walk out of range and back in range.

[Q] One click connect to *specific* Bluetooth device? [NFC Automation]

Hi All,
I have an NFC enabled Samsung Galaxy Nexus and have placed NFC tags in specific places (car, living room, home theater, bedroom, etc.) so that I when I set my phone on the NFC tag I can automatically play music over Bluetooth in that location.
I am trying to completely automate connecting to a *specific* Bluetooth device. (I am not looking to simply toggle Bluetooth on or off, or select the desired Bluetooth device from a menu.) I am currently using "NFC Task Launcher" to accomplish the majority of this, but as far as Bluetooth is concerned, the most I've been able to automate so far is to simply Bluetooth on or off. (I also tried "Tasker" but the functionality I am looking for is missing from this app as well.) I have not found a way to read an NFC tag and automatically connect to a specific Bluetooth device based on which tag is read, nor have I even found a "one click" app / widget that connects to a specific Bluetooth device. (If such a "one click" app / widget exists, I could automate the launching of that app to make the connection.).
(Also having the Bluetooth device in each location initiate the connection isn't a viable solution, I need for the phone to iniatiate the connection.)
Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
Ran across this looking for the same answer. Surprised no one has responded in over a month here.
Did you have any luck finding a workaround for specific BT device connections?
Hi,
I am the developer of MacroDroid an automation application for Android (that supports NFC tags).
This is a feature one of my users has just requested, so I'm just starting to look into the feasibility of adding it. (I came across this post during my initial research).
I will report back here on what I find and if all goes to plan I'll get the feature added to MacroDroid ASAP.
In the meantime, I'd appreciate ALL feedback (positive and negative) with regards to MacroDroid as I hope to make it as powerful and flexible as possible. It's available on Google Play here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.arlosoft.macrodroid&hl=en
Cheers,
Jamie
Just a quick follow up to my last post.
I believe it is possible to implement functionality to connect to a specific device. I currently don't have an appropriate device to test this, but I have one on order. As soon as I receive it, I'll have a go at adding this to MacroDroid.
In the meantime the following app on the market:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=a2dp.Vol&hl=en
Has the capability to connect to a second Bluetooth device when a Bluetooth connection is established. This may or may not help depending on what you are doing.
Any update on this? I'm also in the same boat. My car doesn't automatically connect anymore, never really did, I think its Bluetooth > 3.x on phone( 4.0 right now, but same on older past devices on S3 ) and the stereo bluetooth is older version( can't remember exactly. )
Anyways, thanks dev for posting about the other app, plan on trying it out tomorrow. In the meantime have you made any progress on your app for this functionality? I'd rather keep everything( all settings ) in one app if I can. Don't think Tasker allows this still, not sure on locale but I doubt it also.
Eagerly awaiting an update
A few more options
Did a little more searching just in case anything new has been released recently - came up with a few new options.. None seem to suit my need (trigger connection within Tasker via a plugin or directly opening an app), but posting here since they may help others.. I haven't tried these - just going on app descriptions.
So, in addition to A2DP Volume as suggested by UndeadCretin, which would be the best option if you want the connection to a A2DP device when another BT device connects, there's also Car Music Connector (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cleansoft.carmusic) which would seem to fit the bill for most people perfectly. Free, and "Connects you device to Bluetooth stereo in one widget click or NFC tap." Downside would seem to be that it would need to be set as default NFC app for one tap NFC triggering.
If just a widget is needed, Bluetooth Autoconnect (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.btautoconnect), which is a paid app - although Car Music Connector also has a widget so is probably a better (and free!) choice.
Edit: Scratch that.. Car Music Connector doesn't prompt for a device to connect to.. I only have 1 A2DP device paired, and it wont connect to it (just times out) - maybe someone else will have better luck.
Bluetooth Autoconnect seems like it should work, however it enables/disables bluetooth at the same time - so if you already have bluetooth turned on, it turns it off. <sigh>
I'm unable to get it to connect to the either of 2 A2DP devices though - emailed the Dev hoping that it's just something funky with my device (Galaxy S3) that can be worked around.
Interested in this as well.
Firstly sorry for the long delay in replying!
I have now added the ability in MacroDroid to connect to a specific Bluetooth audio device. I have it working on my 2.3 and 4.0.4 and 4.1 devices but I only have a single audio device to test against. Some users have reported that it's not working for them, so if anyone does try this I would appreciate any feedback if it works or doesn't. If it's not working for you could you please tell me the device, OS version and device you are trying to connect to. Feedback here is fine, or mail me at: [email protected]
Best Regards,
Jamie

Awesome to hear.. I'll give it a test run when I get a chance and get back to you with results.. Just a query - what's the system resource usage of MacroDroid? I currently use Tasker, and am more than happy to buy and use MacroDroid for this one single function if it works, but don't really want them both running in the background at the same time if they're using up resources.. Can MacroDroid be setup to only run when called (i.e. having a shortcut trigger it, or even better via a Locale plugin?) I know that this is probably wanting a little too much
For others, Bluetooth Auto Connect (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.myklos.btautoconnect) has had a recent update of "New: Tasker/Local plugin - new Profile action added - Connect / Disconnect actions supported" which sounds promising.
I never got the app to work previously (it just never connected), but others may have better luck. I haven't tried it since the update.

The resource usage of MacroDroid should be very low as it is effectively dormant in most cases. MacroDroid does run as a foreground service so it displays a persistent icon in the notification bar. If this annoys you there is an option in settings to turn off the foreground service. In most cases it will still work but YMMV. Anyway you can get the basic functionality for free, so you can give it a try and see how it works for you.
Regards,
Jamie
I have just submitted an updated (V1.3.8) that will hopefully solve the issue some users were seeing with the Bluetooth audio connection. I appreciate any feedback if it works (or not) for you....
Car Music Connector
Hello,
In addition to A2DP profile Car Music Connector waits for Headset profile to be connected by default. This is more reliable for most car bluetooth enabled stereos. If you are using it with A2DP only device you need to disable "Wait for Headset Bluetooth connection" in settings.
Hope that helps.

An amazing One click - Connect 2 Specific Bluetooth device for A2DP and Phone app:
Bluetooth Pair
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gnssoftworks.bluetoothpair
found it very useful for swapping bluetooth headphones between devices WITHOUT turning off Bluetooth entirely or going into the settings menu.
Example Use Case:
I have one Stereo Bluetooth headset with mic (two profiles - phone and A2DP audio)
I have one Android Phone and one Android Tablet.
Phone Profile is always connected to the Android Phone, but the A2DP audio changes depending on which device you want to listen to music from.
Normally, if you want to listen to audio from the Tablet when your headset's A2DP profile is connected to the phone, you'd have to first go to the settings menu of the phone, and disconnect the A2DP, leaving Phone Profile connected. Then go to the settings menu on your tablet and connect the A2DP only.
Then you'd have to do the opposite if you want to listen to audio from the Phone again.
Takes a long time.
With Bluetooth Pair, you can specifically connect or disconnect to a specific device and specific profile (phone / a2dp) by widgets.
So you won't have to turn off the bluetooth completely on one device just to allow your headset to connect another device. Nor do you need to go into settings anymore.
1.) Just tap on the A2DP device specific widget on the phone to disconnect, the A2DP Profile from the phone
2.) go to the Tablet, and tap on the A2DP device specific widget to connect the A2DP profile of the headset to the Tablet
Two taps!

[Q] Bluetooth Autoconnect

I'm guessing the answer to my question is likely to setup a Tasker profile, but I thought I'd ask anyway. Does anyone know of a way to get Bluetooth on my OG to autoconnect to a device it's already paired to?
For example, when I get in my car and want to connect to my stereo, I turn on Bluetooth, then have to go to my paired devices and manually connect to the stereo. I'd much rather just turn on Bluetooth and have the phone autoconnect to the stereo.
I'll likely soon set up an NFC tag for my car, so I should be able to turn on Bluetooth and connect to the stereo with that, but wanted to know if there was another solution in the meantime.
Any ideas?

As long as I turn on Bluetooth before I start my car, mine auto-connects to my Hyundai Sonata just fine...
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
My phone auto connects to my car too. Even if I forget to turn it on before I start my car and toggle it on after the car has already started, they will find each other and auto connect. They do not connect instantly though (maybe the BT scan interval is a little bit longer). Maybe you just have to wait a bit?
I have Llama installed and have a profile setup so that when it disconnects from a known Wifi (leave home/work/etc.), the phone will turn on BT automatically and try to connect to the car. Another profile is set up so that once the BT does connect to the car, it will turn off Wifi on the phone and also turn up volume and vibrate "on".
Hmmm, thanks for the replies. I'm wondering if my issue is that I've only turned Bluetooth on after the car was running, not before. If anything, I'll just set up a Llama or Tasker profile. Thanks again!

Yeah, if I turn on bt after I start the car then it won't auto-connect.

Just a heads up to anyone interested. Tasker doesn't have an action to autoconnect to paired Bluetooth devices. However, there is an app available in the Play Store solely for this functionality:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sMSwyLDEsIm9yZy5teWtsb3MuYnRhdXRvY29ubmVjdCJd
This app is also a Tasker plugin, so you can use it in conjunction with any Tasker profile. Good stuff.

I have a very similar issue. I have two bluetooth devices in my car. My handsfree system and a stereo adapter. The phone autoconnects to the handsfree system but I have to manually click on the stereo adapter every time to get it to connect. No ordering of on/off etc seems to alleviate this. Any ideas?

Yea, already gave that a shot. Tried just the app, then tried a tasker profile that would try to connect to the A2DP device if the handsfree device was connected too. Neither worked. Gonna try another couple apps to see where it gets me; if not I'll just live with having to always click it in the settings menu until an AOSP rom comes along that I would be willing to run (not quite annoyed enough at the LG software to give up an SD card/8gigs and hardware keys)
