Android Device works as hands free speakera and message notifier - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.
I have android bike navigation. Is this possible to pair navigation with phone to use standart HF profiles?
I want to answer calls incoming to my phone using navi. Next i want to get notification about incoming SMS on navigation.
I know that some cars BT devices have these options, but how can i do it with another android device.
Both devices have bluetooth module.
Any ideas?

Mic not working during call, only with loudspeaker

I know that in m4 aqua there are two microphone. I think one of them doesn't work. It worked sometimes, but now never. To be listened during a call I must put it in loudspeaker mode, wich is very annoying. Is there a fix or a way to use the secondary mic for calls?
I have the same problem. In service menu I try to test secondary MIC...I hear silence

This Phone has 2 microphones. I discovered that the down mic is faulty. Is there an app to block it and use only the superior mic?

Same problem here. I tryed to reset factory defaults but not helped.
Was your free internal space ever at zero, andrea8997 and Deathmake?
Also i cannot connect through usb anyway, only charge!
Is there a way to view errors or logs without root to get more information about this disagreeable case?
No, i See About 2 GB free Space

Mi internal space is ever 0, because I installed some app and this Phone has a little internal strorage. I tried many roms (official) also restored with Sony app companion, but it doesn't work. I will go to a Sony Shop.
m4 MIC not work - solutions lited
I had the same problem with my e2306 and the only solution was taking it to the sony service under my warranty, they couldn't solve it and gave me a new unit.
Can you test mic recording apps from google play? It might be issue with android 5.0 alot of people have had same issue on 5.0

Same problem here, I was on .67 when it first occurred, went back to 128, en now .111 but nothing really changes so i'm using an headset for now.
It is software related because on some firmware versions (.128 and .67 )do have a working microphone when you boot into safemode.
Tried to disable google now and/or tts but that does have any result. It does do something because in the test menu you get some muffling sound when you test the microphone with now enabled and completely silent with now disabled.
If you don't need gps you can try tonyshark's cm rom's (either 5.1 or 6.0) I'm waiting for either the cm rom to become into it's next stage so the gps works or for sony to come with their 6.0 update.
I have the same problem. Until some days ago the phone work well but trying to root and flashing recovery I've installed other firmwares different of the one it was on phone and now the mic don't work. I tried with some others versions of the firmware but with no results. Very annoying.

(Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro Prime) sounds PLAY very quiet

For several days I use this phone and noticed that all sounds very quiet play. Whether it's the sound connection, an incoming text message, alarm, or an alarm clock. At home even if something can be heard but the court when the phone is in your pocket it's a disaster.
Oddly enough when I play the same sounds through mp3 player are much louder.
Do you have any ideas how to fix?
Of course, setting everything to the maximum.

Anyone check logcat APTX is working?

Gsmarena say le max2 have aptx. Anyone got it working and shown in logcat?
Hello I have Le 2 max and leeco aptx headphones. How to check logcat?

Install logcat app from Google play. Then when pairing it should have Aptx in logcat. Only rooted phone can do this.
https://www.google.com/amp/s/forum....3/help/help-checking-apt-x-logs-t1917962/amp/
Tried with two logcat applications and during connecting earphones cannot find aptx string.

You did see some Bluetooth log similar to the link I share but without aptx string?
I might be wrong that the logging is during connecting. Maybe during playing music perhaps?
I actually checked Aptx website and Le Max 2 is not listed.
Hello i switched to RR 7.1.2 and aptx appears in catlog when i start playing a song.

Cant stream music to bt speaker when using builtin fm radio

Hello guys, bought for my wife v30 few days ago and got wierd problem. My wife love to listen our local radio using built in fm radio (no need to use data network). But she cant stream that music to jbl bt speaker, because then radio goes to off and show info cant switch on radio when bt headset is connected by bluetooth. Headset has to be connected to listen fm radio because its anthena. I already used ordinary headphones and same, also change in jbl settings to recive only audio. Try the same with soundbar and still nothing. All is working perfect when she use network online radio, but when she connect bt headset and try to connect with jbl to stream music suddenly radio switch off and show info. Any knows issue or how to fix it?I choose v30 because of built in radio and very good photos and now cant play radio. Thank You.

Try enabling the quad dac globally, connect a headset to the headphone jack
and THEN enabling bluetooth connection/streaming
theoretically it should work but hardware-wise and software-wise there could be limitations (not possible) or the software doesn't have that option.
Was there a phone before that worked the way you expected and described ?
i think i used wrong word when try to describe my problem using my poor english. i ment when i plugin headphones to enable radio, because headphones also doing as anthena, then when i try connect by bluetooth with JBL, radio switch off. Its like i cant connect by bluetooth, to stream music from radio, with any other devices like speaker or soundbar when i have pluged in headphones. Phone thinks that i have connected headphones set, but i have connected just headphones.
P.S. i just bought phone 4 day ago

two things:
the phone only might be able to output (sound) to one device at a time - so when plugged in the headphones it might be impossible to "mirror" this to bt headphones at the same time
the BT chipset might be limited to only use one function at a time - so that bluetooth and FM is mutually exclusive
several devices (or most ?) have a combined BT/ANT/FM chip - so it might not be possible to use all features all at once (could be a hardware limitation)
or that Android cannot do so (several output devices at once).
http://gopinaths.gitlab.io/post/android-audio-framework-architecture/
Since Android Pie there's the option to use several bluetooth audio devices at once - so there, in fact, could be those kind of limitations but applied to headphones and BT audio at the same time:
https://www.androidpolice.com/2018/...cted-simultaneously-via-new-developer-option/
This will probably require a workaround in the app itself. By default, Android picks which output device to use by some internal priority list, so bluetooth may have higher priority and switches from the headphone audio path.
Maybe the radio app relies on the current output device to determine if it can work, instead of actually checking that it has an FM signal.
It may have a receiver to "listen" for when the audio output path changes (Android would "broadcast" this change), which you could trick by telling the app that the headphones are the current output, but I don't know enough to write a script or app to do it, sorry.

I ran into this on a different phone awhile back. Not sure if it was my V20 or my Galaxy Note 4 but yeah the headphone jack takes priority over BT. There was an app that allowed you to force it but I don't remember what it was called. Think it was soundabout or something like that but this was quite awhile ago.
i will check tomarrow that apk soundabout and try some settings maybe it helps. Also if pie can use up to 5 devices then i hope v30 will get it some day, will try soundabout and give u a call

Hope it works. I honestly don't remember if it fixed my problem or not to be honest it was so long ago. I think if I remember right you need the paid version because they changed it. I guess just buy it and try it and if it doesn't work just do the refund
This isn't a matter of output device priority. Looks like FM radio is analog all the way. I don't think it runs through any ADC in any point in the audio path. So it can't work with Bluetooth. The Quad DAC also can't work with FM Radio.

This wasn't a question whether quad dac *can* run FM radio or not (of course it doesn't) but if the output could be routed through quad dac and the FM Radio stuff thread the aqstic onboard DAC and then to the bluetooth,
something like if the basic jack-like functionality existed on LG's Android implementation

FM can't be routed through any of the DACs. There's no trick you can do with any of LG's tools/apps/options that would achieve this.
Soundabout also crashes on the V30.

Try method 1 from here?
As far as the quad DAC is concerned: FM radio is a function of the SoC (why don't all SD-equipped phones have FM radio? Probably manufacturers not willing to pay QC for the privilege of enabling it), and FM bandwidth is low enough that the SoC's DAC can handle it no problem. I imagine they could rig something up to route the audio through the powered DAC for potentially more volume, but it's just not worth the trouble.

yeah, just tested - FM Radio app itself says "hifi dac isn't available due to FM" (or similar message)

that app isn't available on Playstore (at least not for me) anymore - it's available from https://www.apkmonk.com/app/com.maxistar.monobluetoothfree/ the file seems to be virus-free according to the virus scan:
https://www.virustotal.com/de/file/...5812832b5f607dada7676826540f3471bc0/analysis/
and Spirit FM locked up the phone when trying
unfortunately it dosent work, i downloaded apk then pressed switch on so it says connected to device, before that i connected to jbl and when i pluged in earheadphones and opened radio it show me same problem. And thats true soundabour crash when tryied to open it.
This is unbelievable, and there is no solution for that.

I'll check later if nobody else does: does Android send out a "headset unplugged" broadcast when a bluetooth audio device is connected?
If not, that might mean the FM app is actually watching to see what the current audio path is, which could be kind of annoying to work around...
Someone needs to take a peek into the app and see what broadcast receivers it has.
Unfotunately im not as good as u are with that things, so i cant do anything else just asking for Your help. I cant take a peek into the app i dont know how. I can only do and try all advices from here and what ive read on network. Maybe the only way is wait for pie (if v30 get it) and then try change there how many devices can use bluetooth. Someone from here said that android 9 pie will have that choise.

Interesting and you are correct about number of Bluetooth devices...
https://www.theverge.com/2018/8/8/17659526/android-9-pie-best-small-useful-features
On Oreo, you are limited to two Bluetooth devices. Pie allows five.
But I'm not sure how more Bluetooth devices well help you stream the over-the-air FM radio to Bluetooth?
You will probably have to use online radio to get Bluetooth connection.

Yes, we are guaranteed Pie. Ever since last year we've said it won't come before 1st quarter of 2019, and most likely 2nd quarter. V40 and G7 and even V35 have priority over V30.
But we will get it.

I tried the trial last night and thanks for the recommendation! It reminds me of windows Media player from back in the day once visualizations are on.
I also use BT headphones so I suppose you're right it truly doesn't matter.
