This really sucks I just realized that while I'm listening to headphones, notifications for gtalk and email are tired via the loudspeaker. Wtf?
Is this an android limitation or a bug in vibrant? Any way to make the phone route all noise via headphones?

I'm not sure if it's possible but I can imagine the logic behind this is that you can't hear phone notifications through the speaker when headphones are plugged in.

It's just not a option in this rom. It's a option in CM rom's so it's not android's fault, it's the rom. Maybe when/if we get CM 6.1 we will have that option.
I paired up my Note with my new Belkin A2Dp Car kit and found that I am not able to control the bluetooth volume for the phone/voice profile.
Voice input sounds distorted as does any voice going out to the speakers. In calls the person I am calling sounds distorted and they say I do also. Obviously voice commands are useless as the phoe cannot identify what I am saying properly due to the distortion.
It's as if the mic-boost is blasted all the way up for the voice call bluetooth profile, is this the same issue of Samsung's crap BT stack that they never seem to fix?
I tried using an App called A2DP volume to force volume settings on connect but they have no effect on the BT in call volume, even the volume rocker on the phone does nothing during a call.
I dont see any volume or mic controls on my bluetooth device as it is a car-kit.
The music audio quality over A2DP is excellent and not distorted at all.

Anyone? Surely other people are using BT headsets and car kits with their note?

Yep the A2DP profile is clear and sounds great, as I said in my post, but the phone call profile is distorted and blown out, adjusting the volume on the phone seems to have no effect on this profile.
To clarify...no issues on mine. .phone calls included

I had a similar problem with a Kenwood player once. I had to update the player from the Kenwood site to fix it.
I think it's a bit outdated, but did you manage to fix it?
I have this belkin device and the same volume call issue (can't use it for calling). Tried with the phones in my signature and with an iphone 4s and get this issue with both. Only with an iphone 3g I could control volume successfully. Maybe it's only compatible with apple devices. iphone 4 doesn't work because ios5 disabled bluetooth call volume control.
It's too disappointing..
Bluetooth Distortion
Hi there. I upgraded my SGS i9000 to Jellybean JRO03L recently - latest build is excellent. However, Bluetooth call quality is distorted as per Griffindodd but ADP2, although relative quiet is very good.
Can't figure out what options I have.
Have the same issue in terms of controlling car music volume on the dashboard, but haven't noticed call quality, just got the a2dp application and will let everyone know how it works
Update: didn't work, still can't adjust volume via dash

still nobody has any solution for this?

figured out a work around for myself, so I found that when playing through Apollo I could control the volume on dash but not while playing Pandora and others, so what ended up working is loading both, pausing Pandora, playing Apollo to get volume control, then holding down the back button to kill Apollo(make sure this is enabled in developer options in phone settings), then Pandora should start playing again all by itself and still have volume control.

Anyone able to solve the problem that seemly all Android phones have?
- If headphones are plugged in and we get an incoming call, the ringtone will play on both speaker and headphones.
- If headphones are plugged in and we get a notification, the sound will only play through speaker.
What I want is that nothing comes out of the speakers and only through the headphones.
So far, I am able to use Tasker to put the phone in Silent mode when headphones are plugged in and then toggle it off when headphones are not in. Problem with this is that the phone won't vibrate or ring at all when there's an incoming call and the same with texts/e-mails.
Mine only does through headphones. Newts latest release and SlimROM latest.

That's weird cause I get notifications/ringer switched when the headphone jack is in use and then the speaker is used when the jack is not being used... o.o
I think you can try DSP Manager. If I remember correctly it has an option to control those settings...
I'm using latest SlimROM...I've had this problem with every single Android I've owned.
I'm guessing no one else notices this or has this problem.
I found a Tasker script that might work:

Hi guys,
I noticed that don't matter what audio out you are using(Audio Jack, Bluetooth Headsets) the notifications always come out both on the mobile speaker and the audio out.
I believe that is not as intended, as when you are on Bluetooth headsets, you wanna hear notifications on the headsets, not on the Speaker, especially if you have something like Text to Speak or read notifications setup.
The only way around this that i found is to set the phone on silent when you put the headsets in, but it's not very intuitive.
Has anyone run into this problem? has anyone found a fix?
Kind regards,
Daniel
Hi Daniel,
I have the same "issue". A search on the internet showed that this is no a special issue of the V10 but one of many phones. Seems to be a general issue with Android.
You can use the app "SoundAbout" from the PlayStore to solve this issue. A free version is available but to use all features you'll have to buy the pro version.
in the setup of the app you need to change the options for "Alert behavior". I set "Wired Headset behavior" and "Bluetooth (A2DP) behavior" to "Headset only (override)" and "A2DP only (override)" respectively. That worked for me. The speaker is now silent and notifications are played only via headset. The Bluetooth options are only available in the pro version, the wired headset can be changed in the free version.
but I agree that this is an issue which should be fixed by Google.
When in my car and connected to Bluetooth, incoming calls both ring the phone's speaker plus ring through the car's audio system. No other phone I've owned has done this. When a call is received, it should ring and be announced only through the car's audio system. Car is a 2016 Mazda 6. Am I missing a setting on my S9+? I did a number of searches, but couldn't turn up anyone else with this issue. My S8, HTC U11, Galaxy S6 and LG V30 all ring through the car's audio system only as they should.
