I think you should be using Bluetooth instead of NFC. I'm not familiar with any NFC headphones. Try going into the Bluetooth menu and turning it on then searching for your headphones.

Ensure your NFC is on in your settings. Tap and holdthe NFC tag on your headphones with the middle of the back of your phone. Magic happens and now you're connected. Profit

I just got my new car yesterday, a 2012 Hyundai Veloster, and my phone refuses to connect to the already paired system unless I actually choose to connect to it.
In my Toyota Matrix in which I installed a Clarion CZ500, I had no problems auto connecting.
Can anyone think of why this might be happening or know of a workaround? Unfortunately, Tasker doesn't have a feature to connect to a Bluetooth device.
Check out the pairing section.

I'm going to try to set it up through the voice interface, but it shouldn't make a difference.
It started working properly all of a sudden.

Having the same problem with my Atrix 4G running GB 2.3.4 and my car stereo (Pioneer MVH-8200BT).
Manual connection works fine. This used to work too, I just can't figure out what broke it (2.3 upgrade maybe). I've deleted the BT profiles from both the car stereo and the phone, didn't change anything. (and yes, the car stereo is set to Auto-Connect).
I find this extremely annoying :-/
Is BT on before the car starts? I found that that's the problem.

I'll try to reverse the order and turn the BT on after the radio is fully powered up
At the risk of highjacking an old thread:
How secure is bluetooth.
I'm looking at a bluetooth ignition system.
Function:
When a pairing is made, a relay is turned on.
When the pairing is lost, the relay is turned off.
The device gives no indication, physical or via bluetooth about the relay status.
The device is set to non-discoverable by hardware.
The password is a 20 character alpha-numeric code.
The device performs no function and stores no data, it simply operates from the pairing.
How secure would this be? or more accurately, how much time would likely be required to crack this device assuming no physical access?
Also looked into RFID, but that looks to be easy to crack unless I spend silly money on an active encryption system.
Alright folks, i know a lot of us love streaming our podcasts, pandora, and plain old mp3's from our phone while driving to work. Problem is, ICS roms have difficulty connecting to bluetooth devices.
Common issues are: Phone gets connected but no media, media conn but no phone, no phone or media, media is connected but sound coming from phone speaker.
The point of this thread is to get ideas, tips/tricks, and maybe even system files that can resolve this issue. I'll keep the OP updated with anything added in this thread or I find elsewhere. So I'll start off on what has worked for me for 2 days so far.
Tips/Tricks

Turn on bluetooth and pair your device. Try to get to the point where both "Phone & Media" are check marked on your phone, but neither phone nor media are displayed on you BT device. Once achieved reboot your phone. Make sure "Fastboot" is unchecked in your power settings prior to rebooting.
Been going two days w/o having to redo this process
Spoke too soon. Connected only to phone next time I got in my car. Fix was simple though, just uncheck media on phone, then check it again and it connected correctly

I seem to be ok as long as I don't turn off my BT device (headset). If I turn off BT on the phone when not using the headset, it will pair when turned back on. Otherwise, when I have to charge my BT, I reboot my phone and it will pair again after charging.

Can't leave my car running 24/7 =P... I'll add this to the tips/tricks anyway for people using BT headsets
Hey guys I did some research already and it appears that the Xperia S can't connect to the USB on my car stereo and play music because it does not come with an MSC mode? I saw that there is a mod in the development section that allows you to mount your phone to USB devices and I'm wondering if that is a solution to connecting my phone to the car, or if there are any other alternatives.
Normally i connect my phone with bluetooth to an sony carstereo. It worked really fine..
I dont know if thats an option for you..
Some people say .76 fixed that problem.. Cant really confirm that. You can give it a try...

On my cheap kenwood mobile stereo there are no problem connecting and playing music from the phone...
I had a problem, but discovered that if i turned USB-errorcorrection or was it unknown sources off, the problem was gone...
Try to play a little with those settings...

Well the USB is my only option because I want to be able to control it through my car controls
I updated to .75 and I got the same error, also enabled unknown apps and usb debugging. Anyone know what else I can do to fix this problem?

I don't think you can control the phone through USB, but you might be able to via Bluetooth, if you have that.
(I have Bluetooth headphones and can change tracks from the headphones)

Have you got an auxiliary out socket on your car stereo?
Can you connect to that from the headphone socket on your phone?

OP you need to root so you can mod it to use the internal as mass storage. That'll fix it.
Ok then...
Maybe my cheap kenwood is just better at this then, but i doubt...
I have no rooted firmware just stock...
My carradio don't actually controll the phone, it just play the music foldere on my phone, and i am able to controll that...

Shoot, I was thinking about rooting it, apparently it will work if I access MSC mode? I just don't know exactly how to root it, is there like a new root method for .75 update or do you downgrade first? I'll probably find the answer if i dig through the forums but since this is my first time owning an android phone I didn't want to risk bricking it only weeks after buying it!
My car doesn't support bluetooth stereo unfortunately so only the USB cable is an option, and yes AUX works but that is besides the point.
I am in the same boat as you, I have an Alpine 105i, and the Xperia doesn't even know it's plugged in, so won't even charge, never mind be used as a MSD...
Let me know how you get round this if you do.
I am having issues with my device not connecting to bluetooth. I am using hYFR on my Galaxy Note... Any suggestions
has the device been paired before to whatever your trying to connect it to? maybe try to delete the pairing configurations from both the phone and device reboot and try to re-pair them?

I'm running the same ROM and everything works. A2DP also works flawlessly. Connects to my car instantly.
Hi there,
I've got really strange problem with my XPERIA MINI PRO - when I plug in the headphones, the phone wouldn't recognize them.
Only if I've had them plugged before BOOT of my phone.
So, when Iam turning on / rebooting my phone with plugged phones, they're working and recognized, but when I disconnect them, same problem -> phone ignores it.
So, my xperia mini pro can't recognize the action of plugging in phones in general. Have tried official kernel, custom kernel, few roms and its deffinitely a hardware problem.
Does anyone knows how does this phone recognize that? And what might be my problem?
Thanx for any ideas.

i have a similar problem on mine, but mine thinks it has headphones plugged it all the time! i downloaded an app called "headset toggle" it gives you a widget on your home screen to show if headphones are connected or not, and clicking on the icon forces a connect or disconnect of them regardless of wether they are connected or not, should fix your problem:

edit: just to add i have 4.0.4 and it works perfect on my phone
Headset not recognising
i am facing the similar problem...... my headset is also not detecting when i plug in, detecting only when i reset my phone and when i unplug again it's not detecting. i face this problem since i update my mobile to latest version (ICS 4.0.4)

Hello,
I had the exact same problem. It was a hardware problem. The only way is to take it in for service as I did. was repaired at electronics level.
Is it possible to solve this problem with headphones? Any app? Toggleheadset does not work for me. Thanks

did you use a SE headphone or a normal headphone?
i got similar problem. If jack isnt plugged in, there are some electronical noises in microphone, so i cant use, if i remove jack, the phone doesnt recognize. i ToggleHeadset, now microphone works good, and recognized that i removed the jack
what hardware causes this problem? i ask it because i bring my mini pro friday to the service, and maybe i'll ask about it there for repair.

This is a halfway software solution to make the phone work, for a complete repair i believe taking the phone to service is necessary.
I have a hardware problem where xperia mini pro (Stock Rom ICS 4.0.4) is constantly detecting headphones connecting and disconnecting. This stops all the multimedia with sound, so it was impossible to start a music file or video because it was automaticly paused).
Disabling the Live ware app (connect now app) did not help,
This may not work for people who can not make phone play music or videos after headphones are inserted,
I managed to solve problem with software and by inserting headphones in the jack once every boot.
You need 2 apps; soundabout and toggleheadset2 (widget),
soundabout does not need to be registered), you will just need to set soundabout service to run on every boot, and set the 'media audio' output to speaker by default.
Every time phone is booted or rebooted insert the headphones, then play a song, remove the headphones and toggle headset to off, every time you wish to use the headphones you will need to toggle the headset widget to on manually,
i recommend to have phone calls and messages also set to vibrate in case you forget to toggle after unplugging the headphones.
I have not yet managed to get working the headset microphone,
If the headphones work in iPhone they wont work in Xperia mini pro or arcs or 2011 device , u need JVC gummy plus , they come with adaptor to sort the problem
