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?
Hi
I am having problems pairing my GS3 with my incar bluetooth handsfree.
It recognises the handsfree, and says 'paired' but the handsfree doesnt beep like it should and the headset icon does not come up.
Any idea?
What worked for me
While I haven't tried to pair a sgs iii. I have successfully paired numerous ios and android devices and they all have the problem you describe. The following procedure (that I found on the web and is directly from Parrot support) should work:
Pairing can be difficult, and as such the droid is not currently
considered compatible with the evolution. The phone should pair; but may
not connect. What some of our customers have been able to do is to pair
with the Parrot, where the Droid reads "paired but not connected" then
clear the memory on the Parrot, whence it will announce "memory erasing
in progress please wait". Most steering wheel controls will allow you to
clear the memory with a combination of the Volume Keys Vol- followed by
Vol + 5 Times (-+-+-+-+-+). Or if you have the red/green keypad with the
dial in the center, simply press and hold the red/green button at the
same time. Normally when the Parrot is done it will announce PLEASE PAIR
DEVICE when its done, but these customers have reported that it instead
simply beeps indicating it connected to a phone, and sure enough the
Droid showed it was connected and paired.
Some further points to note:
(1) this worked for me even though my parrot firmware is very old (ie. I didn't need to upgrade the firmware)
(2) at times, I need to repeat the process multiple times to get it to work. be patient.
Hello ,
I have installed on my opel astra J an android 5.1.1 head unit with rockchip 3188 1GB RAM. I have the following problems and I would appreciate any help:
1) I have lost the warning sound (forget key)
2) I have lost the warning sound forget light on with key on
3) I have installed the sygic premium but I realize that the response is low and sometimes crashes
4) It was supposed to have 16GB of ROM but it has only 2 and separately 12GB but I cannot install any application on that.
5) When I open the door the steering wheel and climate lights are turning on except the radio which are turning on when I turn the ignition switch
Sorry about all these questions ,
thank you in advance
Hello! I have an Android 8.0 head unit in my car. It works well, but there are 2 problem I’d like to solve.
1. when I open the car, the car unit shows the opening in the other sense. For example if I open the left door, the car unit shows the opening of the right. I tryed change the setting in the factory setting panel but it does not work.
2. The keys on the steering wheel work, but I’d like to change the function.
How can I solve these problems?
Thanks.
