Handsfreelink workaround - Verizon LG G3

This might be a wild question but here it goes. I have a 2010 Honda Accord with handsfreelink. I can only make and receive calls through the Bluetooth system. Today I played a visual voice mail and it played through my stereo system. I want to play music from my phone to the cars Bluetooth system. Is there a way or app that will make any audio on my phone play through my cars system?

The blue tooth in the car needs to be a certain build... if not music will not stream. Not sure what Bluetooth version your car needs

Music sounds better than calls

I kinda have the same issue. My wife's bluetooth is old in her Benz, but in my Infiniti it works great.

Turn your Wifi Flyer into a phone.

I used Grove IP and download it on the marketplace and used my google voice account to log in. Now you can make and received call from your flyer as long as you have a wifi connection.
Just wanted to share something to the community.
can you then pair a bluetooth headset?
thanks for the find

Yes that did work. Now is there a way to receive calls from a cellphone calling you from Grove IP?
I use my Skype account and it also works well.
I know there are ROMs that enable the Bluetooth functionality, but is there a flashable zip to do the same thing for those of us who'd rather stay with the stock ROM?
Be sure to change your settings in Google voice. Don't have it forward to any number have it forward to Google talk or email that way if anyone calls your Google voice number it rungs your tablet with grooveip. Wired headsets are confirmed working. I used the standard htc headset with the inline mic that came with every android htc phone I purchased and the work perfectly for you hearing the caller and the caller hearing you.
Thankyou I was having trouble getting it to receive calls.

No, you have to root, but you can keep the stock ROM , just rooted. Just to be clear bluetooth works on totally stock, but not bluetooth headset. There is a small mod to one text file you do once rooted that enables headset profile for bluetooth
Just want to know if it uses the sim or google server to call?

Doesn't need a SIM if you have wifi its a VOIP
There is actually a very active forum thread with the developers of GrooveIP here.

Call of duty black ops headset

Curious if anyone has already/could develop an app that would mimic the phone as being the black ops headset for the wii, I believe the real headset is called "headbanger headset".
I'm sure I'm not the only one who would use it, I just imagine not too many people considered this option.
I think this would be a great app since you could plug your phone into the usb on the wii, then use your bluetooth headset while playing and the game would think you had the hardware... so, whatdya think devs? Possible?

Bluetooth breaks voice to text recongnition

Galaxy Note 2 - Verizon
I noticed I am able to talk to text using the messaging and gtalk app just fine while at home with bluetooth turned on. However once in and paired to my 2012 Toyota Highlander I am no longer able to talk to text in those applications unless I turn bluetooth off. Google Now is unaffected at all.
Anyone else notice this bug?
Thanks.

This has effected me on Google now also. The only thing that works right is s-voice, but who wants to use that!? I found a workaround, but you are basically still using your phone for the voice recognition, and the Bluetooth strictly for voice calls. If you can work with that and just toggle between the two if you want to use your Bluetooth for other audio, this will work for you.
Just go into your Bluetooth settings for whatever device you have paired, and turn off "media audio". Voice detection will now work fine, but you have to do it through the phone(which kind of defeats the purpose, but hey...it's just a temporary workaround). Hope this helps

I hear you there, I'm not constantly jumping back and forth between the two, so for now it works, just gotta change it when I want to stream.

Not just the Note II either. My SGS3 does exactly the same thing. Seems like a bug or someone, somewhere thought it was good idea. Siri (on my iPhone 4S)worked while streaming audio and paired to my car and my Nexus 7 works too (even though it doesn't have a 'phone' both options are there and checked and it works).
I just noticed this last night. While my headset was paired, I tried to use speech recognition through Swiftkey Flow Beta and it would not work. Also, when I hit the multi-purpose button on my headset to voice dial, SIRI would come up instead.
SIRI must die. Soon.
Is there anything new with this issue?
Between this and the other problem with the music player auto starting, my enjoyment of my note 2 while in my car is severely limited.
No movement but something needs to happen as this is really annoying.

[Q] BT Audio / Pandora / Jedi XV12

I just upgraded my Rom to the Jedi XV12 rom without issue. Currently I'm experiencing a "silent" audio when the phone is synced to my car via bluetooth BT and trying to listen to Pandora. My car has the Pandora app and prior to this ROM I did not have the issue. I "turned" the volume up on the phone and it showed the BT audio at max... yet there was no sound. Is there something else I need to do or update on the phone?
Check the settings on your paired Bluetooth device and make sure media audio is selected. Otherwise I'm not sure. You might try to delete the device and re-pair it.

This. I bet that's you're problem too.

Try "BT Mono" from the play store. Not a fix per se, but it did the trick for me.

I questioned the developer of the ROM as well. Just did a wipe. Hope it works tomorrow. Media audio didn't do it. That didn't change. Worked before this ROM.

What music app are you using ? Did you try a different one ? I'm using Subsonic and I'm having issues with eq's.
My audio work with my Bluetooth in my car neither the in app nor Beat's eq's work. I did not have eq issues with Bean's which I'm probably going to switch back to.
Looks like Google Music app works with Beats so for me it was the app I was using.
Well, according to the thread title, [Q] BT Audio / Pandora / Jedi XV12, looks like he is using Pandora.
Interesting enough..... If I have BT Audio enabled for both Phone Audio and Media Audio.... ANY BT audio does not come through the BT device. If I uncheck the Phone Audio.... it plays just fine. The Controls for the player work fine in either scenario... just no audio if the Phone Audio is checked. I have had intermittent success by having the audio going.... unchecking phone audio... listening for a few... and then re-checking phone audio. Sometimes it will keep playing without issue.... other times it "mutes" the media audio even though it is checked.
Did I confuse anyone.... LOL

Bluetooth A2DP woes

So I use my car head unit to listen to Google play music. When playing a song the song info shows up fine for the first second then it changes to unknown then after a little the song info cones up again.
Does this happen for anyone else?

I have the same problem in my car. If I pause play back it shows. Start playing and us unknown. Using Google play music. This worked fine with my S4. Not a deal breaker for me but would like a solution.

Is the s4 running 4.3? Bluetooth meta data seems fixed in 4.3 but might still not work in 4.2.2 on the g2

THIS^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 2013 Ford Edge This is very irritating. However the one thing I noticed on my GNex with 4.3/4.2 (Roms) was that either you could have the text messages read to you or have the music info, but not both.

Same with my G2 with my aftermarket Sony BT stereo. My Rezound and Note 2 work fine with it on Google Play Music. I'm hoping it's just an update that needs to be sent.
I dont use Play Music, but I do use Slacker and Pandora.
On my Gnex, track information was never working until Android 4.3. My G2 acts the same way that my Gnex did on 4.2.X - you see "unknown" for track, album and artist.
I dont see it working correctly on the G2 until 4.3 is on it either. No fault of LG, it looks like bluetooth is something Google messes with every OS update, "fixing" and "breaking" stuff at the same time.

This also happens for me! I haven't really noticed it with the stock music app. But it definitely happens when using slacker or Pandora. The only thing to help it is to leave my phone plugged in so that the screen stays on since I have that set in developer settings. Then it will update without me having to pause and replay it to send the data. Also the Pandora app control mode in my pioneer xbh5500 doesn't connect with the phone app. So I have to stream it through pure Bluetooth mode. Which is quicker, just I can't thumbs up or down and pick stations through the stereo touch screen.

This is the one thing that Ive always missed in my car being streamed from the phones. But I put most of the fault on the OS, and the rest of it on the fact that I think its impossible to ensure that every piece of hardware implements it exactly the same. At best its a crapshoot and eventually the puzzle pieces fit and it starts working.
With my Gnex, 4.1 in my car would show a menu button but thats it. 4.2 would show a menu button and "Unknown" for track, title and artist data. 4.3 now shows all of the data (but there is another issue introduced that causes the phone to reboot on re-connection)
AFAIK there have been 2 full re-writes of the bluetooth stack in Android 4.x, so clearly Google wont leave well enough alone or realizes its an issue. While Im sure LG stuff on top of that doesnt help, I dont think the bulk of the issue is with LG as much as it is with the OS underneath.

Interesting. The bluetooth pairing seems spotty on my Toyota Venza 2010 (it will just all of a sudden pause and not pass the song names to the receiver). We did rent a Hyundai and it seemed to pair and run without any issues. This is really frustrating, about to return the phone too...

My understanding from it is that the stock player(s) will work because they were written by the same folks that wrote the bluetooth drivers for the phone (LG, in this case, Samsung in the case of my Gnex). But Slacker, Pandora, etc. probably conform to a different standard, since they cant possibly write the app to work with every different brand of bluetooth device.
And again, add on top of that the fact that Android OS might not be implementing it correctly, and you have a fuster cluck of a moving target.
I do believe it will be corrected, eventually....after 2 yrs it finally got working on my Gnex with 4.3, and I think the G2 will get 4.3 someday so we should see a fix.
Damn it gets annoying to hear life is good whenever I turn my car on

And with podcasts it shows up as device is paused buy it is playing and there is no volume control

I'm even weirder. I have a Panasonic head unit and sometimes it shows a ringtone from someone who called me yesterday, sometimes it shows a song that was on Slacker 4 days ago, and so on. I mostly listen to Slacker or Google Play Music.
My GNex never showed anything even after 4.3
Thank you all for reporting this. I have a HTC One running 4.3 and I use BT a ton. It all works perfectly and I've been thinking of getting the G2 but given these issues I'm definitely not getting it.
Definitely seems to be an issue with G2. On my HTC both on 4.2 and 4.3 Play Music sends proper data to my car and stereo Bluetooth. Controls work perfectly too

I'm fine with the quality and don't care about artist info, but it WON'T AUTO PAIR.
I have to manually click my car stereo icon from the bluetooth menu to initiate pairing. After that, it works fine. Not exactly a deal breaker, but man is it annoying to remember.
Also, Viper4Android is pretty incredible. I had no issues with the sound quality coming from an S3, but after Viper I can never go back. It's that good.
