I have my HOX+ connected to the car via bluetooth. The music streams brilliantly. No issues there at all.
What I do have major issues is with Phone calls. Making outgoing calls is impossible it refuses to conenct to the bluetooth speaker even if you manually select the option, it just goes to internal speaker. If you select external speaker it goes ok but just wont connect to the car sound system at all.
In comming calls are iffy. Some times they pipe through the speaker but not all the time.
I know there are issues with HTC and bluetooth in general just looking for some ideas on how to try and fix the issue.
I have viper rom and elite kernel.
I was even thinking about buying this to see if it would help!
HTCs bluetooth stack has known issues with certain kinds of HSP devices.
The problem is that since the BT stack is propertary and closed source
it is hardly possible to change anything there compared to AOSP roms
where this is open source
So even if I guess you wont like the idea I can only suggest that
you try an AOSP rom if this is really important for you.
There is still not a 100% guarantee but chances are better that it works
About which kind of car BT device are we actually talking?
Even with the AOSP BT stack there are certain devices that have problems
espcially some kind of car manufature propertary solutions.
I use a Kenwood BT capable receiver and it works without problems
The device you linked may not help you because from the description
this is only for A2DP which doesnt include BT phone audio (HSP profile)
...
- this dongle is compatible with all devices with BT A2DP profile
...
Hmm ok so it sounds like the dongle shouldn't work as expected then ok! Just dont want to spend nearly £50 and find it doesn't work any better.
I have a Kia Pro Cee'd 2 with standard inbuilt car stero / bluetooth. I think it is the fact that it works sometimes bothers me more than if it didnt work at all!
I did try osap for a bit and had similar problems but will try again and see if I can get a good connection!
In the car I have buetooth connection, usb charging port and aux connection that is compatable with iphones. I actually get an iphone connection cable with the car!
Most of the bluetooth boxes I have seen only seem to have A2DP and AVRCP
connection profiles so I dont think these would work either.

well then this seems one of those sh.. devices
if you already have tried a recent 4.2.2 AOSP rom and it failed
then it prolly will still not work
Allthough there has been a patch in bluedroid lately regarding connection issues
https://github.com/maxwen/bluedroid/commit/e6eaba415b3d9cb0043a590cc01a1e7d79fed5ca
I have no idea if this may help but you can try
Could someone tell me why its impossible to find a universal Bluetooth patch for EXTERNAL usb Bluetooth dongles? One that will add the full Bluetooth feature to the devices "born" without build-in Bluetooth.
We are so many that bought these Android tablets thinking that we could just plug in a Bluetooth usb dongle - for why would that feature be missing in Android, bluetooth has been around for so many years even before anyone thought of android.
So why is this left out of the kernel, it should be as basic as Wi-Fi?
Come on XDA developers - make a universal driver, then get people to test it and add their devices to the list of working.
Doesn't bluetooth work in linux? And isn't Android based on linux?
So why is it so hard to make the driver/patch?
Or is it simply that most developers think that bluetooth is obsolete - So never mind?
With kind regards

Hi guys, so I have a Chinese made android deck running 4.1.2 with I guess is a custom rom from their factory. It works pretty well but they have locked the bluetooth function to only allow incoming inconnections (meaning only my phone can connect to the device). I have an OBD bluetooth transmitter that I would like to connect to the device but the "bluetooth" options menu in settings is hidden. I don't see any reason why my bluetooth OBD can't connect with the deck seeing it connects to my phone fine. Are there any workaround/apps/xposed modules that will allow me to accomplish this?
Let me know if the explanation is not clear. Thanks in advance!
I'm looking for the answer to this also... I tried looking for a bluetooth connection app with no luck. My tocado android double din is running kit kat 4.2.2 and I assume they only allow bluetooth connections for audio and only want you to buy their obd 2 device. I can go into the device settings in the torque app and see my phone and other bluetooth devices but somehow my obd device isn't reckognized... it seems they are blacklisted somehow. Has anyone tried a wifi or usb bluetooth obd2 device? Maybe that will work?
Both Bluetooth and Wifi OBD-II devices are supported by our headunits. Keep in mind that you get what you pay for with these devices and the cheap ebay ones aren't very reliable
OBD devices are only detected if broadcasting name contains OBD. There is a work around using petrows CarService
Please report back any that work for you
Wifi
- VGate iCar 2
Bluetooth
-
Wired (USB)
-
Note: If connecting to wifi device, you'll lose you access to the internet (wifi/3g)
Curious about how to resolve the problem I have with OBD.
I use an OBDLink LX, which is far and away one of the best you can use. Not a cheap Chinese knock-off and it has specific support in both Torque and Dashcommand.
On my MTC KLD unit, Torque detects the OBD device just fine. Torque just works with it, I didn't have to do anything.
However, Dashcommand does not reliably detect it. Dash Command is enumerating devices differently somehow, and just shows "paired device" for everything. I was able to randomly choose one once, and it worked. The next time, it wouldn't work on either one. I would MUCH prefer to use Dash Command, as Torque gives me wildly inaccurate readings (MPG, HP, Torque, all are way off despite using accurate profile information). Dash Command tech support insulted me by simply responding to read the user manual PDF.
Any ideas?
I've just got a "LUJII Mini OBD2 ELM327 V1.5 Bluetooth Car Scanner". Works ok with my phone, and in the Bluetooth menu it seems to pair. But then Torque says it is not paired even though I have the OBD sign in the top status bar.
Need to force the pairing inside of the torque app by selecting which OBD device and then it works ok.

same problem for me on my kld 3066 Torque is paired and working immediatly.
dashcommand pair OBDII BT device but always don't connect, i just found that OBDII connect to dashcommand 80% of the times if I force dashcommand to close from Apps list and that I restart the App
I write lot of mails to dashcommand about this problem (also because i buy), ...I send Debugs and so...but I still with the same problem
Am I gonna also lose connection to may hands free bluetooth if I get a bluetooth one?
I never had one of those and would like to know which one you recommend for a Rk3066 HU
Thanks.
I got this one off amazon and for 11 bucks it works 99% of the time. The only issue I have had is it reads wrong codes on Subaru but works fine on Toyota, Nissan and Kia so far.
Cant post links but this is close

Hi all.....
I've got a SCANTOOL OBDLink LX connected to my AUDI S3 8P, and it's the fastest BT dongle i've ever seen.....it make about 45 Fps, when china's ELM make 10 Fps.....
Unfortunatly, the TP 2.0 protocol isn't available with a standard ELM327.....you just access to generic PIDs, so it's limited.....i'm working on it.
I also try a WBH BT5 dongle, witch should read the TP 2.0 with TORQUE......at the moment, i can't access to my ECU MED9.1 (but i can on KWP1281 EDC15P), i'm working on it too, with florian Help...
To paired with the WBH BT5, you need to override in Xposed MTC the dongle string name, and it work fine.

As an update, since I remove carservice this works much better, no need to force pairing everytime.

No you can bluetooth to more than one device at a time.
Anyone using VGate iCar v2 or v3 BT version? I wish to have one of these as they have automatic sleep mode so you can keep it plugged all the time without batt drain.
So I've tried both this adapter http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014MV03KY?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00 and this adapter http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005NLQAHS?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00
And I can't get either of them connect to bluetooth. They both show up when you search for the adapter, but neither of them connect. They don't even give me the option to put in the PIN to have them connect. Has anyone ever had this kind of issue? If so what can I do to fix it?

What module do you use to override the name? I need to do this too for my Kiwi3 but I can't find the relevant settings anywhere.

Correction - I found the settings page finally - apparently I hadn't actually enabled xposed MTC. Once it was enabled and rebooted, I still haven't been able to get the device to show up at all in the bluetooth settings. I've tried:
K
k
Kiwi
KIWI
Kiwi 3
3
kiwi
KIW
kiw
Kiw
as well as leaving the field blank. Still nothing in the bluetooth settings. I can confirm that the device is on and connectable from my phone. Am I doing something wrong?
has anyone found an adapter that plays well with mtcb decks and 2001 f150's? i've tried 3 adapters and still haven't gotten one that does both. either the connect no problem to my deck but not to the ecu or they connect to ecu but its named "chx" instead of obd and won't connect to my deck. i did try using the xposed module to override but it never worked for me either.
Bluetooth v5 introduced a feature named dual audio, through which audio can be played from a single phone to two different speakers/headphones connected over Bluetooth.
Where is this feature in our phone? Even the recent update ColorOS 7.1, this feature is still missing!
please let me know if this feature is available.
Samsung already has the feature
Realme has.......sort of a similar feature

Sorry, I don't use BT audio, but is this of any help?

The option you are showing is the feature to connect multiple devices via Bluetooth, which is support to 5 at the same time with possibility of different Bluetooth profiles and I know about this.
Dual Audio feature means to share same Bluetooth profile of "Media Playback" to 2 devices at the same time.
I've tried, but our phone, as of 31st July, still doesn't support sharing Media Playback profile with 2 devices. It will switch the device, if i tend to change it, keeping the profile locked on to just 1 device.
On the other hand, I've tried testing the Samsung's feature and it shares the same profile with 2 different speakers. Bluetooth v5 has the capability to support this by default. Thus, its up to OPPO to provide the software support to it.

Like I said...I don't use it, but thought that might have helped.
Since I upgraded to ColorOs7.0 my Lypertek Tevi Bluetooth headphones now connect each individual earbud with its own Bluetooth connection. The Bluetooth symbol then states 2 devices are connected. The latency in games is massively reduced Vs ColorOS6 where only 1 earbud connected and then the buds talked to each other. Is that the feature you're referring to?
