Hi, I'm a first time poster and I'm on the verge of pulling my hair out.
I have an SPV M600 and have just bought a Pioneer DEH P75BT car stereo because of its bluetooth capabilities.
It has two bluetooth modes: Telephone and BT Audio. After a lot of playing around I have managed to get both modes working together....ish!!!
I've installed the A2DP hack from this site enabling the streaming audio which actually sounds fantastic through the car speakers.
The problem is that to get the BT Audio to work I have to delete and repair the phone with the stereo every time I get in the car. This involves the following actions:
Open Comm Manager
Tap settings
Tap bluetooth settings
Tap devices
Tap and hold the Pioneer BT unit
Tap delete
Tap yes to confirm deletion
Tap new partnership
Wait for scanning to complete
Tap the Pioneer BT unit
Tap next
Enter passkey (four taps)
Tap next
Tap finish
As you can imagine, this process is a real pain in the backside every time I get in the car so my question is this.
Can the above actions be automated in just one command? If so how? (bearing in mind I do not really know how to write scripts)
If someone could even point me in the direction of learning to write a script for this I would be grateful. I have downloaded and installed MortScript but I don't really know what I'm doing with it.
Why when you tap and hold the device doesn't the "set as wireless stereo" command work the same as when the stereo and phone are newly paired? Surely it's the same command.
Any help would be gratefully received.
Can't help you except to say that I experienced the same with a pioneer BT radio too. My soolution was to return it to the store and buy myself a parrot BT car kit which works just fine...

Luckily I don't give up this easily. I have played around with and taught myself the basics of mortscript and have managed to write myself a script that does all of the above in one command. It's not quite perfect yet but it does mean that I can get in my car and start driving whilst the phone is busy pairing itself with the stereo.
The problems I am having so far are as follows:
I have to soft reset the phone each time before pairing with the stereo, otherwise the audio only seems to be transmitted to the front left speaker in my car, which is a bit strange.
I am forcing mortscript to try to pair with the first device in the list of detected devices, which is fine if there's no-one alse with a bluetooth device in the vicinity but not if there is and it detects theirs before mine.
Does anyone know if I could get mortscript to select a detected device by it's name "Pioneer BT unit" rather than selecting the device by simulating a tap on the screen? Also, if the device called "Pioneer BT unit" is not found the first time, scan for bluetooth devices again.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Hello I had the same problem: erase, new, etc.
but i have discovered one thing: you must only change de name in the bt description of your hands free

I was just about to point this fella in your direction ...
You'd have to do an indefinite loop while checking a registry value to see if your stereo was found. There is a key, i'm sure, for a list of found devices but I don't know where that is. As for detecting your car stereo as the one to pair with; depends on what keys are saved, sounds like it may just be possible.
I'll have a look into this as I'd like to get this stereo also if it can connect & stream automatically
If returning it is still an option, I'd get the Sony Bluetooth Audio headunit. Works great for listening to audio from your phone. It pairs it automatically. I also use Jawbone headset for talking on the phone. It kicks off the stereo and goes to the headset when a call comes in.
The built in mic is in the headunit and in my loud car, its subpar in quality. Whicj is why I use the excellent Jawbone.
I personally own a Peekton 950 car stereo and it works great with my wm5 (a2dp enabled) and my new WM6. the only thing that it does not do is autodiscover and connect the A2DP while it does it for the headset profile.
one other thing I would enjoy is to have the idtag displayed while getting the A2dp but I guess this is not part of the spec.
As I wrote in this topic, I guess the A2DP profile has two way of linking.
1°) The "headset" way : a bluetooth A2DP headset initiates communication to the music player/WM device.
2°) The "passive" way : The speaker just waits for a known bluetooth audio player to connect/link to it.
What surprises me is the fact you need to unpair-repair your device everytime : have you tried what I explain in the previous topic : just go to bluetooth devices , long tap on your spearker's name and choose "use as bluetooth speaker" (may not be exact name of the option since I've a French phone ).
On my phone, this simple (but annoying enough) action connects my phone to my bluetooth speaker (not an in-car one).
Hope this helps
PS : If you find any way to script/automatize the connection or any app more convenient than opeining the bluetooth setting, I'd be very pleased to be informed
This probably wont help the OP's problem, but for the rest, this freeware is brilliant, and can be automated using command line switches to work via mapped keys.

Many thanks for this piece of software Susur. I tried it, but I didn't manage to use it to initiate connection to my bluetooth a2dp speaker.
It's a very usefull software when your device is connected to an A2DP speaker/headphone.
There is a DIY option bluetooth headset acting as audio receiver.

Hi,
i had a question regarding the connectivity of the bluetooth. I am currently holding hp ipaq 6828 and itech clip radio bluetooth headset. I am able to pair the phone and the bluetooth headset. The probelm i faced is i switched on my bluetooth headset and my pda in discoverable mode. I am unable to auto pair it. Is it that i need to install some third party software in order to let it auto pairing or there is no way it can auto pairing like Sony Ericsson. Please advise.
Thanks
John
no idea what you mean by auto pairing, but the HEADSET needs to be in discoverable mode, not the phone. the phones BT just needs to be on. once the headset is in discoverable, (i.e. the light is steady-not always.. just on the ones ive used), try to pair it from the phone.
Good luck.

A2DP Blueooth Car Stereo won't reconnect to mobile
I have the Pioneer DEH-P9800BT Bluetooth Head Unit in my car, which supports stereo BT music streaming from any A2DP device.
I also have the HTC TyTN II Mobile which supports the same.
I have paired the two devices, and on the initial pairing successfully played music from the HTC through the Pioneer. When that worked, the BT Audio icon appears in the title bar of the mobile (headphones with a musical note in the middle).
However, after switching off the car and later returning, I have 2 issues:
1) It is impossible to reconnect the BT stereo music playback, unless I delete the Pioneer device from the list of BT devices within the mobile phone, then pair them again. Nothing else seems to work. Simply, I just want all music to be routed through the Pioneer whenever it is in range of the mobile.
2) I have set the mobile phone as "Phone 1" in the Pioneer, and have enabled "Auto Connect", yet it does not auto connect. Every time I get in the car I have to manually scroll to Telephone>Function>Connect Phone>Phone 1. You can imagine what a laborious pain that is compared to my previous 5 year old Nokia Bluetooth Car Kit which just auto-connects whenever my mobile is in range.
Are you able to solve either problem?
Im having the same problems with my sony DR-BT10CX and Moto HT820 whenever i turned either devices off. But whenever i turned them back on, i usually uncheck and recheck the headset whenever i want to use A2DP. It's a pain but i never had to re-pair my device with my tilt.
Try unchecking/checking the bluetooth device instead of re-pairing them (although in your case, its a PITA).
Have you tried updating the firmware on the Pioneer (if its possible anyways).
I have an ATT Tilt w/ the my customized HTC rom. But my JVC BT1 never has any problem to reconnect to my phone.
1) I found a program called A2DPToggle which provides an on/off button on the home page to solve this
2) I found I have to leave the phone in 'visible' Bluetooth mode for auto-connect to work. Less secure, but solves the problem
While this may not help, while messing with my Audio linking between my pda and pc , The PC BT adaptor would freeze if I tried to stream an AAC file or a non mp3 file. It would play it for 10-15 seconds then freeze. I imagine not all mp3
s are created equal for BT purposes either.
Hi,
I have several bluetooth questions.
1. On my old TP2, once paired with BT in my car, as long as I would leave phone bluetooth on, it would auto connect every time I started my car. Nothing had to be done unless I reset the phone or turn BT off.
With ET4G, I have to manually go to BT settings and clique on my car BT to have it paired every single time I get into my car. Is that the way it works for everyone or is there a problem? It finds the car BT when I start the car, but does not auto pair.
2. I know officially Skype and Gtalk do not support BT audio out. Is there a way around? I use those apps to video chat while on the road, and on highway, speakerphone is too weak. Besides, it is located on the back of the phone, right against the windshield holder. Any ideas???
Thanks.
Mike
My BT connects every time I start my car or truck. I have a Pioneer Navigation Radio in the Car and Ford Sync in the Truck. BT has been pretty good for me so far. If you have not done so, maybe try and un-pair and re-pair it and see if that helps.
No problem here with car BT connecting automatically.
If you want Skype BT, use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1148708 (bonus: you can turn off annoying start up/exit sound)
Hello, I am getting weird problem when using bluetooth devices with my HTC 10 (stock rom)
I bought a bluetooth device with aux-in for my car radio.. That way I only enable BT on my phone and devices connect without problems.
But I also have a small Bluetooth speaker I use when I renovate the apartment (JBL GO).
The problem is when I paired car bluetooth device so it can connect automatically and after that also connected bluetooth speaker this one does not want to connect. If I unpair car bluetooth device, the speaker connect normally.. also if speaker connect and I come down to my car and try to pair to car bluetooth device, it doesnt want to connect/pair... Again if I remove BT speaker from paired devices, car bluetooth device connect normally...
Why is that, anyone knows a solution? Why can I have only one BT device paired with my phone?
Thank you for answers
i have this problem too.
Had this problem myself.
Updated to the latest firmware, rom and kernel.
Currently using cleanslate.
Turn on the BT device, make sure no other BT devices are in the near radius which may confuse it, no wireless devices (I know hard in this day and age)
Turn on BT on your phone, hold it up clearly (not laying down) close all apps, and open the Bluetooth menu.
Click the Bluetooth device to make sure it's ready to pair. Then scan on the phone.
Should start picking it up.
Repeating this and turning the BT device on and off periodically, allowing for several attempts at a time before switching off..
Even really it'll work, perhaps a different rom or kernel combination may help..
I have had this problem, once connected it'll always work and work well. It's odd
Same issue somewhat..I really want to keep this device...i dooooont want to go back to the s7. But on the S7, i could have my Gear S2, Sync and LG Tone all paired at the same time...If i got a call they would all ring and i could answer on whatever device...now if i have the LG on, sync wont find the device. or the phone wont allow for sync to use the Phone, because the S2 is using that feature...what gives? just me?

Do you have another device to try it with? i have had a similar problem, but its just my terrible bluetooth rockford deck causing me grief, and an ebay pill. But it did it with a lg g3 and xperia phone as well. so i chalked it to that
Seems like HTC only allows one bluetooth profile at a time. Like it will only allow one device to use the phone profile or one device use the media profile.
I have to turn off my tone for Sync to connect. Sucks.
I've had this problem since purchasing the HTC 10 about a month ago. My Bluetooth earphones work without issue, but I've been unable to connect to my car or portable speakers (pairs but never connects).
After reading this thread, I unpaired the earphones, cleared all devices, and I was finally able to connect to my portable speaker. So glad I found this topic.
Still, I'm hoping for a fix. I don't want to bother with pairing and unpairing just to connect to a different Bluetooth device.
Similar problem
Hello !
I am having a similar issue!
I have been trying to register and pair my phone with my car's Bluetooth.
Every time I try to pair with my car an error message pops up saying "couldn't pair with Hands Free System because of an incorrect PIN or passkey" except it never even prompted me to enter the passkey...
Things I have already tried:
Resetting network settings
rebooting phone
Factory reset phone
Also , I do not have any other devices paired with my phone.
Any suggestions??

Had exactly the same problem htc10 would not pair with car bt. changed my passkey on car to 0000 still a valid code and phone paired straight away It was driving me insane trying to make it work. Worth a punt if you can change passkey
