Adaptive Sound - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

I created a sound profile for the AKG headphones that came with my S9+ (Profile 1) and just did the same for a pear of Bluetooth wireless earbuds that just arrived from Amazon (Profile 2). Question: will the phone load the associated sound profile for the earphones/earbuds I am using or will I need to select the appropriate sound profile?

If you have the Adaptive sound saved it should automatically load to what you have saved and selected.

Bluetooth Audio

How do I get all audio on my Verizon Touch Pro to play through my bluetooth earpiece?
With my Motorola Q, I connected the bluetooth device, it changed to a Headset profile and all audio (tcpmp, windows media, etc) played through the bluetooth device.
When I connect the same bluetooth earpice to my Touch Pro, the only time it activates is if I hit voice command or once a call is connected.
I also have bluetooth stereo headphones with that stereo profile and those do get audio from Windows Media player.
How do I get audio from TCPMP/Windows Media to play through the Hands Free profile that the bluetooth earpieces I have use?
Anyone able to help with this? I'm disappointed that I can't listen to audio through a bluetooth headset with the hands-free profile.
There has to be a simple fix.
Tap and hold the name of the headset and tap 'Set as Wireless Stereo.'
That option is grayed out for my mono headsets.
Any other ideas?

that is because your headset is not a2dp. what you did before was just have the crappy audio go across your headset without true a2dp so the sound was pretty bad. i have jabra bt8010 and sometimes i have to refresh the option on my headset to set wireless stereo. if i don't, the audio is piss poor because i'm just piggy backing ontop of the voice command audio stream.

Yes, I understand that.
But, my question is how can I get audio to come through my mono bluetooth headset when it's connected? On my Motorola Q, ALL audio routed through the headset when it was connected. On the TP, only if I start voice command or make a call does audio get sent to the headset.
I use the headset to listen to podcasts, so that's what I'm looking for.
I did find a program that would route all audio through the headset, but I do have to run it each time I connect the headset. I suppose that will suffice though.

Vzw TP - Bug with Wireless Stereo

I picked up a set of the Sony DR-BT50 headphones today. These particular headphones support the Hands Free and Wireless Stereo profile.
Paired them up, and everything went great. Aside: Good sound and range. The lows could be a little cleaner, but overall, acceptable. I digress.
After the initial pairing, both the Hands Free and Wireless Stereo profiles were activated. After powering them off and powering them back on later in the evening, only the Hands Free profile was activated. I tried selecting only the Wireless Stereo profile (unchecking Hands Free) AND repairing and only selecting the Wireless Stereo profile, same issue. To get around it, I have to go into the BT menu, hold on the headphones, and 'Set as Wireless Stereo'.
Is anyone, who is using BT headphones that also support a secondary profile, experiencing the same issue? I wonder if it's because of the two profiles being available.
I have a pair of Jabra BT headphones that have both a hands free and a stereo option. They aren't both activated at the same time. It depends on the application or a switch on the headphones (mine is manual, yours appears to be automatic based on the user manual).
I have a pair of MOTOROKR S9 and have no issues with pairing. I see both modes when it is paired with the VZW TP. There is no problem when they see each other either.
My Plantronics Voyager 855 has both modes "checked" also

It has to be the headphones then because the switch isn't occuring. I tried quickly pressing the power button on the headphones as well as playing some music through WMP and CorePlayer...nadda. Oh well. Minor inconvenience.

Change Bluetooth connection profile? Car handsfree

Good day.
In my car I have a bluetooth handsfree kit (Sony Ericsson HCB-400) with microphone and conversation through car stereo. It says in the instruction manual for the HCB-400 it supports both handsfree profile and headset profile.
Does this mean I can use the handsfree system to broadcast music over the car speakers through bluetooth?
In that case, how am I able to change the connection profile for the HCB-400 on my phone? Only option I get is "use for phone audio", wich is checked. Didn't do any difference.
Any ideas?
Not sure if it helps, but just pairded the Hero today with my newly purchased Bluetooth Car stereo...
After pairing etc. On starting Bluetooth on Hero, it automatically connects to stero and plays tunes etc. (provided I swtich to the correct Source on the Stereo). If I then try and make a call from the Hero, the Stereo automatically changes mode and works in Phone Mode. On ending the call it goes back to audeo mode.
So in principle, it can be handled seamlessly, but can't say for your own instance.
Easiest option is to just try it and see what happens...

Thank you for the reply!
I understand that you have a car stereo with integrated BT handsfree? In my case, a handsfree kit is mounted on top of the original stereo in my -03 Nissan Micra. Do you have any more options than I do if you long-press the actual BT connection in settings?
Hi,
Yes the stereo itself has bluetooth support...
On the Hero, if I go to bluetooth settings and Long Tap on the actual device connection itself, then I get to a screen that shows both audio and phone profiles with seperate selectable tick boxes.
Both were already ticked...

Bluethooth Ringtones Play through both Speaker and Headset?

Are notification sounds and ringtones supposed to play through the speakers while the phone is connected through bluetooth? Uhm...does it do it also while connected through the headjack?
I looked in bluetooth and sound settings and didn't see any options.

Good question. I would think it depends on the bluetooth earpiece. I the BlueAnt Q2 and all music and ringtones played through the earpiece.

ICS can push notifications through ALL audio outputs connected. Gingerbread and earlier used a hierarchical method where only 1 output would be used at a time. (I think it was Speaker < Bluetooth Audio < Wired Headset < Bluetooth Headset on GB)
I noticed this difference when I moved from CM7 (GB) to CM9 (ICS) on my old Milestone. It's normal ICS behavior.

Problem with bluetooth settings/ codecs

Hello, I have a rooted lg v30 running boombox rom v.0.10.
The main reason I decided to buy the lg v30 was it superior audio quality. I also have LDAC supporting bluetooth headphones from sony so I was waiting quite eagerly for the LDAC support coming with oreo. I just learned today that there are additional bluetooth settings within the developer settings section.
But to my bewilderment I cannot change the settings to a higher quality. I mean I can choose the LDAC codec and the higher sampling rate but at the moment I connect the phone with the headphones it switches back to lowest standard settings... I installed the sony connect app to look if there was something to change there but it also did not show LDAC as an option after connecting to the phone. I am quite annoyed. Any Ideas what the problem could be? Is there a notification when a LDAC bluetooth connection is successfully established?
Thank you.

Ignore the app, it's completely unnecessary. Every time you connect your headphones, the settings are restored to default. Go to the bluetooth settings of your headphones before pairing them and change the 'Connection type' from Most stable to Best sound quality. This sets the highest quality codec your headphones supports as default. Go to Developer Options and change the sample rate to 44.1k or 48k and the LDAC Codec: Playback Quality to "Optimized for Audio Quality". Should have all settings stay supporting the max spec of both devices and software like Viper4Android. When you connect your headphones after doing this, a notification will appear at the bottom saying LDAC quality is enabled.

Thank you for your help - unfortunately that did not work for me. Like I said before I can choose the settings within the developer section before I connect with the headphones but the moment the bluetooth connection is established the settings switch to AAC ( which is not bad but it is not LDAC) and 44.1khz/16bits.
There is no notification regarding LDAC...
I updated the smartphone firmware yesterday to rule out some software related problems.
By now I am not sure if the problem rather originates from the headphones (wh-h900n) than the smartphone. Given that I just have one device that supports LDAC and one pair of LDAC headphones I don't know how I can determine which one is maybe not correctly working. [emoji52]

Answer:
1. Uninstalls that Sony Music Center (song pal) app
2. Remove your Sony LDAC headphones from your BT settings.
3. Pair your headphones again with your phone.
4. Go into BT settings. Click on the cog wheel next to your headphone device.
5. Choose Audio Quality over Stable connection.
6. You are all set.
Note. There is a toast message that appears once you're connected and established LDAC connection.
