[Q] Sharing audio during a phone call - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have posted it 2 months ago on "apps and software" and got nothing. So I'm trying again here.
Hello everyone!
What I'm looking to do is really simple, a LOT of people are interested in these feature, however, no one has a clear solution.
There has been a lot of post about this subject but they are most old post and there's nothing help full.
Here is the problem - whenever I'm talking over the phone, I can play any music I like and I can hear it perfectly, but the other side cant hear anything! even if ill let the music play using the phone speaker - the other side is silent (witch is strange cause when the speaker play, the mic should transfer the sound and shouldn't "care" who is making it).
So after a lot of searching for apps and different ways, I found out something interesting.. If I make the call using an VOIP (skype, viber and so on) and Ill play music at the same time - THE OTHER SIDE CAN HEAR IT PERFECTLY!!! witch means the phone is fully capable of doing it.
What is going wrong when I'm using the cellular network instead of VOIP? is there a way around it?
Ive noticed some people don't get WHY would I want to do it.. well, I'm working using my phone (sales) and using the exact same pitch. I would like to be super lazy and play a recorded version of me, and when its done, be able to just keep talking to the person without him being able to notice the difference.
Since I'm doing it for work, I cant use VOIP for regular calling.
I'm using Nexus 4, chroma rom (lollipop)
ANY help at all will be appreciated

Something to think about..
Since I didn't found any software to do it (yet), I'm experimenting with a different direction.
I currently use a PC headphones with a simple Y adapter from eBay. So I'm thinking "all I need is another microphone. One for the talking, another to sit between speakers that will play the sound for the caller.
I've gone through eBay again, this is a tough one to find cause I need 'audio input' splitter and most splitters are 'audio output'.
If you guys know something about it, please share.

Car telephone problem. Why won't it work? [FIXED I THINK BUT I STILL HAVE A QUESTION]

I can pair my phone with my car but 90% of the time I cannot hear the other caller and get a lot of distortion and hear myself echoing. The caller can hear me but not too well. A couple of times it worked ok. It seemed to work better when I had lite'ning rom installed, but due to an issue with car mode popping up randomly I have played around with various different roms. Now though my phone whilst pairing fine will just not work audio wise with my car. It is a 2010 BMW z4. BMW site lists the phone as compatible. I have searched high and low but the only problem I can find tends to be contacts not showing up etc. For me this is fine I just can't hear anyone when I make a call.
Is there something I can do with the phone to make it work? I found a root related bluetooth apk file remnaming thing but it didn't work.
Please help as this is driving (literally) me nuts.
Anyone got any ideas on this?
Ok, I investigated more. I have a program called Total Recall installed. It can be set to record all calls. On previous ROM's I think it occasionally crashed or got stopped when I closed stuff with task manager. On this ROM it seems to work constantly. This may be why my car Bluetooth used to work on occasions and not others.
I froze it with MyBackup Pro and voilĂ  my car worked properly with the phone.
So I guess my next question is does anyone know anything about this program and why it would mess up car Bluetooth? If I can't get it to work can anyone recommend an alternative?
EDIT: Seems I can set it not to try and record if BT connected. Shame as that would be useful.

No Metadata sent to receiver

Hello all, just a couple of thing that I'm having problems with and thought you guys may be able to help. I have a Sony XAV-712HD receiver in my car and use the Xperia Z3v with it and I get no song info from any app via Bluetooth connection. I tried my wife's Galaxy S4 and my friends Note 4 and both put song info up on the display immediately. Also anyone using MirrorLink, I have low sound quality and can't adjust the volume on the phone while in Mirrorlink. I know it says Bluetooth is not supported when using ML but if I use audio through the cable it only plays through my front speakers. Anything you guys can help with would be great! Thanks in advance!
So I can better help you, which music apps do you use? For example I use Google's Play Music. On a side note, have you checked Bluetooth settings while you are connected or trying too connect to see what's going on?
I just posted a reply but don't know where it went... LOL Anyway, I have checked BT settings on both devices connected and not. I use Spotify, Amazon, Walkman with music on sd card, and iHeart. I have factory reset both devices and still no go. I really wanted to like this device but the lack of data while on a call just doesn't work with my career and my boss ordered me a Note 4 that will be here in the morning. If you don't have time to mess with it don't worry about it. Just kind of wondering if anyone else was having an issue.
That's weird... Sorry I couldn't help you. Hopefully that issue works out for you. The data and call feature should be fixed along with xlte with the lollipop update which should be soon. Which could be this month or next month.
Not a problem man. Thanks for trying to help! I was told by the rep at the end of last year it would be a couple of months but it has recently become a real issue. Thanks again!
My poineer unit receives song data from every app I've tried. Walkman, Spotify(What I use most), Google play, pandora.. etc.
However, my girlfriends G3 doesn't show anything when playing via her phone.

Bluetooth headset not working properly.

Hi, ill start off by saying sorry for mispelling, english is not my native language.
I bought this phone about 3 weeks ago and everything is stock and today i bought myself the Jaybird X2 wireless headset.
These two doesnt seem to work togheter, i followed every instruction, ive googled my eyes off today and still no answer.
I manage to connect them, i get the icon in the systembar and i can make phonecalls with them but with TERRIBLE crackling and static noises.
And to use them with media is impossible, with Soundcloud the connection just restart and the sound is at best stuttering ever 0.5 for 1 sec. And with the Stock Music app its about the same (yes ive seen that i can choose media and phone as an option in bluetooth settings, both are ON). EDIT: Its actually making youtube videos stutter too, not only in sound but in general.
I know you guys here are the smartest people when it comes to phones, is there anybody here that know how to fix this?

Just for information I have Jaybird BlueBuds X Bluetooth headset and it works properly with excellent sound. Did you try another BT handset to know if your headset is OK. Try that headset with other phone.

How do I record Personal Voicemail Greeting from my android emulator Windows 7?

I rarely EVER post on forums, because I usually research on google for hours and end up getting my answers.
Well this seems to not exist on Google, so I will do the deeds of asking it on my favorite android forums.
I use Metro PCS on my LG phone and I really really badly want to know if I can record a person voicemail greeting using any android emulator on my computer.
I currently use Bluestacks, but if the solution is found for a different emulator, I'll use it.
I want to do this because I have a super high quality Blue Yeti Microphone, and combined with Audacity I can make amazing audio. Having that on my phone as my personal greeting would be like a dream (I would have the highest quality audio android will be able to play)
I did this before, but recorded the audio from my speaker, which you could still hear the air noise in my room.
If there's no way to do it on an emulator, or you don't even know then there's gotta be phone parts that allow me to hook up an audio device as my computer.
Is this possible?
Have been trying to do this for two years now. :crying:
My android phone IS rooted.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, even if you don't really deal with this stuff.
Other than that, I'll just have to wait this out and hope this doesn't fall to the bottom of the forums.

Android audio routing

Hi,
I got a problem that my Samsung Galaxy S5 route all audio to earphones.
I would like to route all media to speaker and all phonecalls to headset (and if possible bluetooth).
I don't mind customizing ROM if needed.
Any idea how can I do that?
Thanks!
Help?
first: ask with understandable words. lol i don't know what are ur plans
i know this is really old but to anyone having these issues, install soundabout you can use it to force audio to a certain output for calls, media, ect really helps when your headphones start to break and android doesnt want to detect them even though they work
EDIT: I misunderstood the last post as a question. Didn't mean to repeat the same answer to an old thread.
Not really a full answer but I am currently having similar issues. There seem to be audio routing apps like Audio Router (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=audiomix.audiooutputsource) and SoundAbout (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.woodslink.android.wiredheadphoneroutingfix) than can do the job. I can't exactly tell how they work but maybe someone else knows. Or you'll figure it out.
Feel free to post your results
Have the same problem. But neither Audio Router (https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...ooutputsource) nor SoundAbout (https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...oneroutingfix) can't route SMS notification away from headphones.
Sounds terrible. Most modern android smartphones are worse in this regard than ordinary simple cell-phones.
I wonder how things are in this regard in Windows Background.
