Hi all. First post here. I have an AT&T GS3 running HOMEMADE OmniRom v.20140401 and am having issues with my newly installed Pioneer MVH-X560BT car stereo. The stereo has Bluetooth capabilities for streaming music and taking calls and includes a microphone. Streaming music and calls from the phone works perfectly fine, but the microphone doesn't pick up a word I say. I tried another mic with the unit (which didn't work) and contacted their customer support. They suggested it could be an issue with how the device is interacting with the radio rather than the mic or mic input jack not working. I realized I hadn't used any Bluetooth devices since installing OmniRom, so I tried using a headset this morning. The mic on the bluetooth headset worked fine. The only thing I haven't done is try a different device with the stereo, which I plan on trying later today or tomorrow. Does anybody have any other suggestions on how I can get this to work?

I got in on the Samsung WEP470 deal at NewEgg to use with my G Tab. But in testing it, I've noticed that it will pair, no worries, but it won't connect.
My goal is to use it to replace the rubbish internal mic for skype calls when my daughter is traveling.
Any ideas? Does anyone have a BT earpiece that does connect and can work for calling?
Thanks!

I have Motorola S7HD stereo bluetooth headset and it pairs and works great with my G Tab running latest TnT Lite. I use them to listen to pandora, and watch tv/movies from my media server using plugplayer. I haven't tested yet for video conferencing, but it should work for that too. I'm too lazy to convert my Skype friends to oovoo or whatever it is, I'm hoping Skype will just finally add video to Android Skype soon.
Good luck.

Only A2DP Bluetooth
I have a Plantronics Blackbeat 903 which also works perfect for listening (through A2DP), but that's all I've been able to achieve. I mean, I can not make it work as audio input, just output. I guess g tab doesn't have the hands-free (HFP), or headset (HSP) Bluetooth profiles required to do that. So, even though I have Skype installed and I can make calls and listen via bluetooth, the built-in mic is still being used during the call instead of the Bluetooth headeset mic.
I've been googling around and still have found nothing about whether that functionality can be enabled. If you guys find something, let me know.
Anyone have BT headset/microphone combo that works?

I have a Rocketfish RF-MAB2 stereo headset that works for audio output but not microphone input (works ok on my blackberry tour). Just tried Sipdroid and while I could hear fine, audio was definitely going through the microphone on the G-Tablet ("sounds like you are under-water").
Bummer. I would like to be able to hear and talk through this set of headphone/microphone. My Emerson EM227 will pair but not connect. Is this an issue where the proper bluetooth stack isn't present?
G Tablet running VEGAn-TAB.
I need headset with microphone.
I borrowed a few headsets to test them out.
One USB headset worked but it was inconvenient since it was wired.
One Bluetooth headset worked only with the speakers, the microphone just would not work on the G Tab (it worked on the desktop).
Can you recommend a Bluetooth headset that just works with the setup?
I tried several SONY and Motorola BT headsets and all were working fine except when you disconnect BT you have to reboot to get audio routed back to speakers.
(No other remedy worked)

Did the microphone work in all these cases?
Or did you have to do something special to get it to work?
Please provide a few more details

Which Android release, which ROM (Vegan?), which application (sipDroid, sound recorder, etc), and did headset microphone work (as opposed to built-in mike)?
Appreciate your feedback.
Hi,
I have the same issue with the original ROM (3588). It looks like original firmware does not support Bluetooth headsets with microphone it just support Bluetooth headphones without microphone. Can some one help with it? Or any other custom ROM supports Bluetooth microphone?
Thanks in advance.
My Motorola H17 pairs and connects to my TP but there's no sound when playing music or audio. It works fine with my Optimus V phone using the BT-Mono app to redirect the sound out to the headset. I've tried BT-Mono which appears to function correctly (no errors etc), but when I switch it over no audio through the H17 although the tablet speaker is muted as it should be.
Is there something else I need to do on the Prime to switch the sound over, is it an incompatibility issue with this headset, or is there another app that would work? I've searched a bit and apparently others with BT headsets get them working with TP, but also found very little on the subject. Perhaps it's the lack of phone functionality with some headsets? I'd try another brand/model if I was sure it would work.
Thanks for any help.
Get audio manager from the market, there is both pay and free, pay attention to incall volume. It worked for me, seems incall volume is defaulted to zero at least in my case.

Hi everyone,
I've been using cm on my razr for a few months. The problem has not shown up until recently, when i moved into cm10.1 by hashcode and his friends about 10 days ago.
Basically, i found my wired headset not working any more. It's a pair of stereo earphones with a microphone on it. I'm sure it works with several different devices (so it's compatible) including other moto cellphones and ipad, and also with my razr when it was running on cm10. But after upgrading things go weird: when i plug it in the phone jack, no notification appears, which should act like older cm10 telling me i'm using a wired headset. And, of course, sounds don't go into the headset, but still the phone's speaker.
I've tried searching the web, and googled a post (but i forgot the keywords so i couldn't find it anymore....); in the post the guy said his samsung, too, doesn't work with headset, and when he put the volume to the highest, he can hear some scraches in the headset. I followed his idea, but installed an app at first, which re-routes the sound into headset manually. Then, the speaker became silence as expected, but i could only find "scraches in the headset" as that guy did in his post. And i can hear large clicks & pops when plugging the earphone into & out of the jack.
Does anyone have some ideas on it? seems no previous discussion i cound find.... Thanks in advance.
ps. none of the previously working apps works, including skype, some media players, the integrated music player apollo too. The phone calls can be heard using Bluetooth headset, but no again with Wired headset.
Hello,
Need some help with phone calls not passing through Bluetooth to my car stereo.
It's a new stereo, the old one died, but I could make/receive calls with it without any problems.
The new stereo recognises BT media audio, but not phone calls (incoming or outgoing).
The BT settings screen shows the car stereo as "Connected (no phone)"
I am using [ROM][Slim][6.0.1][AOSP_r74][Slim 6 For Kenzo][21/11/2016] and I saw two posts here and here from @DoubleDroz experiencing the same issue.
I would ask at that thread, but unfortunately it has been locked by @Umang96.
I've seen this problem mentioned before with some ROMs.
I know the phone's BT works fine because it worked with the previous car stereo only yesterday (and it works with the new stereo for media audio).
I've tried a few apps from the PlayStore but nothing sorted the issue.
Ideally, I'd like to stick with this ROM, old as it might be, as I find it just fine for my needs (I don't play any games, it's work only).
But if I have to install a different ROM to get bluetooth calls in the car I will because it is a necessity.
I don't want to install MIUI though, can't stand it.
I would use Krexus-CAF if it hadn't the issues with GPS navigation, which is also a necessity.
Any ideas or suggestions?
Hi, i found fix for bluetooth "NO PHONE" on car set. It's work on latest LOS rom. Follow this post.
