Did something change with Bluetooth from kitkat to lollipop? When syncing with my radio in my car I was once able to see artist and song info and no longer can. Does anyone know of a fix or maybe why it happens? Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
What player are you using? Bluetooth is buggy with the lollipops.
Tried Google Play music, stock music player, poweramp, and player pro.

I'll give that a go tonight. Where is the setting for that. I recently downgraded due to this so I'm not on lollipop anymore but will upgrade today. Thanks for your feedback on this issue.

when you connect look at the lock screen. it will shows a lock symbol. it will say new bluetooth device added. do you want to add to trusted devices for ease of connection. i hit yes then it shows a list nfc bluetooth. i hit bluetooth and selected the item. for me i did it to my cars ecu my radio and my planatronics ear piece and my gear. they were disconnecting like mad. did that been solid. could be your issue. and power amp has a option to check to send data over bluetooth as well
Tried that setting with poweramp and got nothing. I'm going to try this with my wife's s5 that's on lollipop before I Odin mine to lollipop.

I have successfully paired my ps3 bluetooth headset and wireless keypad to my view running honeycomb (gingerbread with the headset) and they both work flawlessly.
The wireless keypad has a touch mode which enables the keypad to double as a mouse.
It takes some time to get used to using the keypad for full navigation but it's a nice option to have along with bluetooth keyboards.
It's a nice alternative to the $50+ bt keyboards and so much more smaller. Give it a try sometime if any of you have access to these items.
Interesting. Did both work wih Gingerbread?
What did you do to get them paired? I guess there is a special USB cable to hook them to the tablet for pairing?
Are you rooted? Have you modified the build.prop? Is your mic on the headset working or is it just media. I tried to connect my motorola finiti and all I got was media.

I only tried the headset on gingerbread, not the keypad. Pairing is the same for any bt accessory; put the accessory in pairing mode, turn on bluetooth on the tablet then enter the passcode when instructed.

Yes I am rooted. On gingerbread I modified the bt profiles number and set service.brcm.bt.ag_supported to 1. After that I rebooted and made some calls with the headset and the mic worked flawlessly. On honeycomb the bt profiles number is already correct for the same devices so all you need to do is set ag_supported and pair the accessories.

I just got one over the weekend, ill try it on the GB view, the pads were on sale for $25 at BB.
So the pad u r using its like a key board and trackball? In other words u can control the tablet completely from the pad ?

Just about. The only downside is you have to switch between touchmode/trackball mode and typing, you can't do both at the same time. It isn't hard though to switch between the two as it has it's own dedicated button to go between the modes.
I haven't tested it with games but honestly that's the only time I prefer to actually touch the screen. Other than that, it's nice to be able to let my tablet sit on my night stand and just control it with the keypad.
And at less than $30 (average) you can't beat the portability factor.
All I can say is between the keypad and the headset I don't always have to be near the tablet to touch it for simple tasks.

Do you actually have the headset paired to Hands-Free or just Media Audio?
I used the headset to make phone calls on my view tablet.

You are able to use the mic on the BT headset to make calls on Honeycomb? How?
Skype, grooveip. On the headset you also have to press the phone button.

What I mean is that the HFP profile is disabled in Honeycomb. Even if the build.prop is edited it will show, but devices won't actually connect to it. I'm wondering how you got around that issue.
I'm wondering the same exact thing. Can someone shed light on this. My headset won't actually connect either and it's driving me nuts because the build.prop method seemed like a sure fix. Someone please help!
The build prop is not a fix. LEEDroid is working ona a fix, but no solution yet. Check his thread / ROM
I am only interested in the keypad.
Will the PS3 one work on an unrooted/stock evo view?
Hey guys/gals, here is a fix for the VZW GS4 that resolves the issue of WiFi hotspot tethering. In the latest update, you now get an errors message that checks for an active subscription and then gives you an error and turns off the hotspot. Here are 2 methods I found.
Method 1: Download any app that allows you to freeze/defrost packages. If you cannot find one or do not have one, download an app called System Tuner by 3c. You have to find a package called "SPG" (system package). Freeze this package and it will prevent the phone from checking for a subscription service. Run your non-factory hotspot app. It will crash and maybe freeze for the first time, and then exit, just reopen it and it should then work.
Method 2: Using System Tuner, find the package called "SPG" and click on it so that it becomes highlighted. Then click "Details" so that it brings up the info about the app. It should show a list of packages under the "Activites" section (near the bottom). Uncheck the box labeled "NewSPGActivity". After this, you can run your hotspot app and it should crash/freeze for the first run. After that, it should run smoothly.
I hope this works for you all. If you have any questions or issues, just reply to this thread. Don't forget to give me a thanks!
Note: Do not use the built-in wifi hotspot toggle switch, it will crash. Download an app from the market to toggle it.
Note: If you cannot access the settings by clicking on the Hotspot notification, do this: settings>more networks>mobile hotspot.
Note: I am running ME7 with 4.2.2 JellyBean and stock rom.

Foxfi works with no subscription notice all you have to do is make a pattern lock when it asks you.

Foxfi seems to be working. No adhoc error. I've yet to connect to it though. Cautiously optimistic

What exactly force closed?
If you are trying to run the hotspot from the built it button, it will crash. Use an external app for your hotspot. I use "1-click tether" at the moment. I'm going to do some more looking right now.

I just use the toggle. Then, after that hold down the home button for recent apps and go right back to what I was doing...
Yes, was trying to use the built in button and the app crashed. I haven't had any problems with third party tether toggle apps. After getting the subscription check and hitting the home button I am good to go.

FoxFi uses your data plan, so if you don't have unlimited data it will cost you a lot of money. The technique I'm using prevents the phone from checking if you have an active subscription or not. Also, FoxFi limits how long you can use it continuously if you don't purchase the pro version. I used to use FoxFi before i rooted my phone.
On VRUAME7 build hack is not required. Toggle the built-in Wifi hotspot on and as soon as the subscription check message comes up just press the home button and it will go in the background but you will be able to still use tethering.
i just froze that app. and installed a third party wifi tether app and it worked .,thanks

IF you are correct, you still have to deal with the message every time you want to tether. Also, since you have to hit the home button, if you want to change your setting or anything then you have to go back into the app and deal with the message again. This just makes it easier. Your idea just avoids the issue, mine fixes it. I wasn't trying to be rude or anything. Have a good day!

No problem.
Has anyone figured out why poweramp will freeze randomly when switching songs manually? I thought it might be related to Viper mod, but tried it without and still the same. All KitKat Roms i have tried do it. Any suggestions?
I have the same issue... ever since I installed cm11 nightly on my t-mobile galaxy s3, poweramp will lockup when I switch songs... I've updated my cm11 every night.
Alsom, sometimes the songs will play faster than normal. I don't know what to do.
Disable direct volume control. Worked for me.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk
I have to have it disabled for Viper to work regardless so that isn't it for me. The other day it had no issues then the following day back to lock ups and the fast playing music.
I usually listen to music while riding my bike.. so this upsets me
If it means anything to happens to me on playerpro also.
This is very annoying for me also
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk
I will say that when kit kat first released with Gummy and kitkang I never had the issue that I recall originally. It was later down the pipeline so to speak after new commits from CM. On a side note today had no issues at all till tonight. Than it did it for every song about 4 songs in a row, then I rebooted and it's been good again.

I don't remember the early gummy builds doing it either. Guess I'll reboot more often and see what happens
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk
it's sooo annoying. i wonder what's causing it? has poweramp been updated at all since kitkat became common?
Once I think it had been updated but no avail.
Same issue here. Nothing changes no matter what I do. Did anyone post these bugs to PowerAmp?
Today I did not have any song freeze on me but literally every other song that I manually skipped to had the "chipmunk" play speed. Once again a reboot fixed that issue. I have not submitted any thing to poweramp myself yet.
I've disabled direct volume control and disabled all fade and gapless songs options on poweramp, don't get it as often.

It is actually a very very simple app and it makes the sound on your phone about 100 times better. As far as the music app itself...I couldn't help you there.

poweramp kitkat viper4android issue
i get fast forward chipmonks... i get stuck in pause, it will not play.... only way is to restart app.... and only way to do that is to go into app manager and stop it manually.... i tried everything to fix it... i reinstalled viper4android multiple times...
ONE THING FIXED IT FOR ME....
de-check swipe to change track in Look and Feel > Player UI : Gestures : UN-CHECK Song Change Gestures....
that did it for me... afterwards... I can change songs back forth all day and no problem.... I know the swipe is cool... but i can live without it...
the thing is if you enable lock screen in poweramp... the swipe still works while lock screen is on... who knows... all i know is that i no longer have problem going track to track now....
This may be a stupid question. I tried searching but didnt find this. How do I pair my BT headphones to the TS? I can get to the BT menu, but cant "scan", or dont see the button to do so.

its simple my friend longpress on a icon and drag into another icon....
So on all my old Samsung phones when you first pair bluetooth with your car it gives a popup to grant access to the phone book for contact info. My V10 hasnt done that so now I cant see any contact info via the car. Anyone know how to force it to grant access? Anyone else having this or similar issues?
You go through the bluetooth menu and click on the setup icon for the device.
The check box is there.
