Bug maybe? I can use my phone speakers just fine when connected to my G watch..

Not that this helps you, but I haven't had any issues transmitting music to bluetooth speakers, headphones, or car audio/phone systems. You mentioned "speakers," are you talking about the one (or two?) built into your phone? Or some external speakers you have wired to the phone?

[Q] Bluetooth music streaming to other phone

Hello,
Is there possibility to stream music from one android phone to another?
Why would you want to do that? I don't think that is even an option through bluetooth.

cause multiple deices playing in sync is awesome!
I have been trying to do this for awhile.. that is to say I am not an expert on the ways of bluetooth at all!
From what I understand I can link to headset or speakers and stream it, why cant a phone just replicate the same profile a speaker dock or headset would?

playing music via Bluetooth?

Has anyone gotten this phone to work playing music through your car stereo through Bluetooth?
I'm paired fine and calls come through stereo, but music still comes through phone speaker. My gf isn't around atm or i'd ask her(she got her HD7 to do bluetooth music on my stereo).
I at least know that once it's paired, it's a phone setting.
I have mine paired with my Sony Bluetooth car stereo and it plays fine. I did have one instance where it played through the phone speaker but it corrected itself the next day.

There should be an option depending on what music player you are using to determine what output you are using. Kinda like if you had a bluetooth earbud, you wouldn't want to play music through it, just receive your calls through it.

So all you did was just pair, started music player, then it automatically went through Bluetooth?
No matter what I do, it just keeps going through phone speaker(only calls go through Bluetooth). I've tried with default music player and poweramp.
I don't have anything bluetooth to try, but there are no options at all to choose output path either in BT or Music player?

Under advanced Bluetooth options there is one labeled FTP Server which I believe you need to have on in order to stream music. Hmm... Tried turning Bluetooth on and off on both the phone and stereo, even rebooted phone. Blah!

When you pair a headset that is stereo capable, it will pair to 2 things, phone audio and media. Have you tried to unpair and pair and see if that fixes it?
I have paired my Rezound with a set of bluetooth stereo headphones and also with my car stereo. I have noticed that the media audio connection is intermittent. It always *says* that it is connected to media audio, but sometimes the sound comes out of my phone speaker anyhow. I have not figured out how to fix this. It seems to happen randomly (more frequently with my car stereo than with the headphones, but it has happened with both). All I can recommend is to go into a Disconnect/Unpair/Pair/Connect loop until you get it to work. It might also help to power cycle your phone. I just did that last night and it paired and connected properly with my car stereo this morning.
This all of course assumes you have checked "Media" under the options screen for the device with which you are pairing.

If it behaves like any other Android phone, when it links up to a bluetooth connection with the audio profile enabled, it should automatically route it's sound to bluetooth, there's no setting in the music player to toggle that.

My car has the option for bluetooth media and when I sync'd the phone to the car last night for the first time it worked flawlessly I didn't have to to anything special. I don't think it's a problem with the phone, maybe the car stereo?
I suspect the phone since I've seen the same intermittent problem both with my car stereo and my headphones. Plus I never had any problem with my original Droid with both those devices.

Update: did a plain old pair with the HTC HD7 again and the music came through the stereo just fine. Tried again with the Rezound and still keeps going through the phone speakers. Oh well... My fault for trusting HTC.. ;P

[Q] Is it possible to force bluetooth media audio to emulate wired connection?

I have the A100 HTC Car StereoClip for streaming audio to my car stereo, but only the bluetooth profile is for "Media audio."
The device works great for streaming audio - it sounds just as good as a wired connection - but, it will not work for phone calls. When a call comes in, the "media audio" stops/pauses, then the call comes through the phone's speaker. With a wired connection using the physical headphone jack, the call will go through the car stereo and use the phone's microphone.
Is it possible to force a different profile for the A100 to do the same thing as the wired connection?

I've been searching for this same exact question, but haven't found jack. Did you ever figure this out?

Not yet. I haven't found any app or utility that will make the A100 work like a corded link for phone calls.
I am hoping the answer lies in the /system/etc/bluetooth/audio.conf file. I haven't really looked into it because root is needed to test anything there. I plan to resume looking into this once s-off is achieved.
any solutions as of yet????

Nothing as of yet. However, the answer is not in the audio.conf file.
Can anyone tell me where the system detects the headphone jack is inserted and then redirects the audio?
Go to the bluetooth settings for your device, you will see two different options "Phone Audio" and "Media Audio". If you only see "Media Audio" your A100 does not support the required bluetooth prodiles to handle phone calls.
These are two separate bluetooth audio profiles, HFP for phone and AVRCP/A2DP for media.
When a phone call comes in, the phone pauses the AVRCP connection for the duration of the phone call, and HFP comes on to handle the call.
This is the device I used for bluetooth media/phone calls in my older model car, nothing spectacular about it but it works decently for being a $40 unit.
Connects via wire/RCA jacks to aux port and needs to be hardwired into power though.

Reading around ive abandoned the idea of finding a way to get this working on a2dp devices. Its just so stupid. All I want is to route the audio through the speakers, the microphone in the one x is close enough to pick up my voice. This is what I used to have when I hard wired the audio to my stereo in my car, and now with blutooth I can't.

Exactly. I haven't given up yet, but I agree that information on this is few and far between. Most info seems to be focused on redirecting all audio to mono SDP. With root, it should be possible somehow by re-routing the audio. I'm even ok if the music gets blended with phone audio - it might be annoying, but not nearly as frustrating as not getting phone audio via A2DP.

Unfortunately, even SoundAbout can't force the phone audio over AD2P-only devices. I talked (well, emailed) with the author about it last December. He was very receptive to input and he even tried a couple things, but no joy.
This solution requires root and knowledge beyond me. Or, I need to buy an adapter that supports AD2P and SCO and has a microphone.

Bluetooth issues

I am running CM10 on my evo 4g lte. I am trying to connect my phone through bluetooth in my car. I have a kenwood kdc x696 stereo. My phone connects fines with bluetooth, handles call fine but I try to use pandora and play music there is constant crackling through my speakers. If anyone has had this issue and has found a way to fix it. I am about to return my stereo see if that helps, but I dont think its the stereo. I think its my phone. I dont need the bluetooth i can use a cable but having the bluetooth is just easier. Any help would be awesome.

Make sure your min cpu speed is set to 400 plus
Do I need a certain app to change it or is there somewhere in system settings I can do that

i think i changed the settting the right way. audio through bluetooth still crackles through the speakers. I have decided to exchange the stereo for a different one. Everyone I have talked doesnt seem to know why. I guess we will see what happens. If this doesnt work I guess I will just to go using aux input.
I have this issue with just my wife's EVO, mine sounds great over Bluetooth,but hers has a horrible crackle, both stock JB, any ideas of what it could be?

Sounds like a bluetooth module error. Calls on older bluetooth at least is mono but music is sterio so it is different. Try a firends bluetooth headset to test. Get your phone replaced. If it still breaks or pauses. I think it is a heat issue. Also try mono mp3 or .wav format.

Why don't you just use a AUX cable, I had the same problem.

Walkman car bluetooth issue

Hi,
After I off my car engine, the bluetooth is also switch off, instead of stopping the song that I am listening, it continues playing via the phone speaker. Anyone encounters the same issue? Any where to feedback to Sony on their software??
Thank you.

Yeah, my phone does the same though sometimes it does manage to pause the song.. haven't found a way to reproduce the pause though, seems totally random. Smart Connect is essentially useless too and profiles like on car bluetooth disconnect pause playback do absolutely nothing.
It's kinda weird since the auto playback and pause work just fine with head/earphones, it's just bluetooth that's having issues.

Seems like a software design decision to me. Since the phone has an output device when disconnected from bt, it uses that. Case in point: if you were on a phone call via bt in your car and the car stalled, battery died, whatever, should your call disconnect or should it switch to using the phone's mic and speaker?

yeah you maybe right. but this differ from most of the other music app. anyway, for car bluetooth, the music and phone usually connected via different application. so i still think that this design decision is not right. cheers
