Does anyone know where I can find this? Its nowhere in the settings and none of the apps work.
I have an Anker Soundcore Bluetooth speaker and if I set it to "Call and Audio" it displays remaining battery level under its name. If it's only set to Audio, it doesn't display battery level. So, if you want to see battery level, depending on what device you're using, you may have to set it to be used for Calls.
Simply, go to Bluetooth settings, then connect your device and click the settings cog next to its name and toggle calls.

Hallo,
what can I do to have the following behaviour:
I need to hear an arriving phone call on the mobile device even if I have connectet it to a Headphone (bluetooth or cable). (I often carry the activated bluetooth headphone in my bag but than I don't hear anny call because its only ringing in my headphone)
can anybody help me?
Several options. The easiest is when you put your BT headphone in your bag, turn it off. Saves your headphone battery, too.
The 2nd option is to disable A2DP on the phone. There are several apps out there that make this easier than going into Settings. I use a Today screen plug-in called A2DP Toggle, www.teksoftco.com, free. But the version I have is buggy.
The 3rd option is to disable BT on the phone, again there are tools out there that make this easier. A2DP Toggle can be set to also disable BT when you turn off A2DP.
I have never heard of a tool that lets you direct specific notifications to the various outputs but it makes perfect sense. There should be lots of options that we just aren't given in WM, like keeping the phone from turning off the backlight during a phone call.

The problem on this way is, that it takes some time to turn the BT headphone on. So I sometimes lost a call, because I was to slowly...
My BT Headphone has a standby Time from more less 5 days! - so battery is no problem.
The way to disable A2DP brings that I can't use e.g. Voice Command over BT Headphone, isn't it?
So maybe there is no solution for my problem?
(The Athena cant "talk" quit... so I need the Headphone, when I get Calls - I don't like that everybody how is around me hear what the "caller" tells me...)
Over the weekend I had headphones plugged into my phone with music streaming (via TCPMP) and a call came in. It switched the audio over to the external speakers, then paused it, and played the ring tone over the external speakers.
Just what you wanted, right? I'm using the AP4 ROM, don't know if that is the difference or just using TCPMP.
I have a Sennheiser VMX 100 bluetooth headset and paired it to my htc dream. When the headset is already connected to my phone and a call comes in, it's automatically transferred to my headset, which is great. But when I try to make a call myself, I just can't get it transferred to my headset. I tried to press Menu during the call, and selecting bluetooth from the menu but that doesn't do anything.
Also, when a call comes in but my headset is not connected (phone has bluetooth turned on, though), and I turn on my headset, the phone won't connect to my headset until after the call has been finished.
Besides my HTC dream I also have a Nokia N95. My headset works without any problem on the nokia, I can even connect my headset in the middle of the conversation and it will automatically take over.
I'm not sure what features android has when it comes to bluetooth headsets, but I assume that outgoing calls and auto-connect during a call are implemented features. I'm running Android 1.6.
Does anyone else recognize these issues? Do these features work with other headsets?
Thanks,
Pepe
Try the following steps:
1. Menu > Settings > Wireless controls > Bluetooth Settings
2. Under Bluetooth devices select and hold your Sennheiser; 3 choices will show up (Disconnect, Disconnect & Unpair, Options)
3. Select Options
4. Connect (if unchecked)
5. Under Profiles make sure Phone (connected to phone audio) is checked
Let me know if this helps
Hi mate,
Thanks for the reply. I checked those settings and Phone audio is already checked. Unchecking and rechecking the box does not make a difference.
Thanks
What ROM are you running?
VMX 100 Issues
I'm having the same issue. I'm running CyanogenMod 4.2.9.1. I have several Plantronics that work flawlessly. Any ideas would be appreciated. I've tried power cycling both devices.
I cant seem to turn up the in call volume past 15, it always reverts back. I was able to fix it once by unpairing it then re-pairing, but that only lasted until I reconnected. Had the same issue with my S8.
My equalizer in the settings is set to normal.
Headunit: DDX774BH
No other devices connected to phone or headunit.
If this is a bluetooth connection,
From settings, do a search for bluetooth.
Try changing the Disable Absolute Volume option
also, from the Settings, bluetooth, 3dots, try changing the Media volume sync option
Ugh, same problem for me with a Kenwood HU. No solution yet, including the one mentioned above.
Just got a pair of Sony 1000XM3 wireless headphones. They connect great and work well, but I am seeing an annoying behavior that previous headsets haven't done. Every 15 seconds, a little alert banner pops up informing me of the battery level. For the life of me, I can't figure out how to kill this annoyance. I installed the Sony headphones app, then uninstalled it. I checked under BT settings and didn't see anything. Any ideas?
When I connect my bluetooth headsets, it is set to 44.1khz and balanced data transfer.
I change it in "developer option" to 48khz.best quality.
I turn the headphones off and on and it reconfigures to 44khz and balancer transfer data.
I want to know where are those options (files) to fix them as I want and not have to change them whenever I match the headphones.
Is there an application that tells you what file is changed when you change something in the system?
