I have a 2005 Acura with bluetooth phone. My girlfriend and I both have pairing to it, she has an old Sprint A920, I have a Tmobile TP2. If we get into the car around the same time, her phone always wins! Of course the ideal solution would be if the car had a function to prioritize who gets bluetooth (if it connects hers, then sees mine, to disconnect hers and connect mine), but alas, nothing like that. I assume the car is polling for a bluetooth and picks the first one it finds. It doesn't seem related to who it paired last, or who made a call last, and we tried unpairing both then pairing mine first or hers first.
So, other than her turning off bluetooth (a pain on her phone) whenever we get back to the car, is there any solution to get it to like me more? Is the problem in the speed the TP2 connects? Any way to speed that up with the stock ROM.
And while I'm here anyway, many thanks to all the amazing people in the XDA community.

I've found that my Windows Mobile devices are slower to pair with Bluetooth headsets/car kits than the older dumbphones I've had (mostly Motorolas).
A partial solution to the problem with the Acura HandsFreeLink, if it pairs to her phone first, is to press the HFL button on the steering wheel and say "Next Phone". It will unlink her phone and link to your phone. That way you can keep both phones paired to the car if needed and still use your phone if the car happens to link with hers first.

Awesome solution, TYVM! Funny, I think I remember help telling me that command but never thought that was what it did Now I just have to find a way to say 'next phone' without my g/f hearing me
Afternoon all. As with most of us I use the Desire as an integrated MP3/SatNav etc while on the road. The problem I'm having while listening to music via a bluetooth headset is an irritating series of beeps every time the phone loses signal - quite a common occurrence when in a rural area - and I'd like to turn off the audible notification. Can't see anything in settings though, any suggestions as to how to do this?
Also been noticing that when using CoPilot the first half of the voice prompt is missed, almost like its taking half a second or so to engage with the bluetooth. Is this common with all wireless head sets or just the cheap "Clip" unit I'm currently using?

I can confirm that I also have this, the instruction will be played fully by the speakers on the phone but only get half the instruction (at times) via the Bluetooth Headset although sometimes you get the full instruction through it...
Not sure if helps... I realised the phone volume and media volume are separate! If you put the phone on silent - you can still listen to media such as music and videos. Maybe you could silence the phone (and get rid of that beep) but still enjoy your music.
Just an idea to try...
By the way - the above can be annoying if you need your phone quiet but accidentally turn on any media.... lol!
Ah well, I'd hoped it was the cheap head set but obviously not.
So folks,
today the sony ericsson live view arrived. It´s quite cheap in germany (42 euro).
The package contains:
Live View
Wrist strap
Clip
Charger (mini USB, also loads the phone it you want to!)
Manuals
So the device is really smal and does what it promises.
I read some bad reviews at amazon.de, but until now it does not seem to be as bad. The connection between the phone and the live view broke up when it was about 3 meters, so that´s OK so far (could be better).
Reading SMS or the other stuff works.
Sportypal Pro does not work. (that´s one of two released apps that have live view support)
Instalation is easy, no problems there.
The clip has broken down after trying to release the live view for the second time.
Can´t say anything about battery life time until now.
But... I would say, thinking about future plugins for 3rd party apps, this litte device can be something really relly cool. I mean, if you have for example a OSM navigation app, that has live view support, you can easily fix that wrist strap on to the handlebar of your bike... and so on...
It also works as a remote for the music player (can be interesting on skies).
But now a little question. What musicplayer is that (pic) ... This musicplayer has to be installed at the phone natively, but i have no link to open it...
Best regards
(sorry for that really bad english, but it´s very late, the day was very long)
I would love to hear more about your live view as time goes on. I see great potentials in this little gizmo. Question; can you pair live view and a bluetooth [email protected] same time?
Also that native music app is available through creating custom shortcut with adw or launcherpro. There's prolly a thread with shortcut apk file somewhere in this forum. Good luck!
Free X10!
just got Live View this morning - actually, not for me, for my wife as she's got an X10. But since she's on T-mobile and they haven't issued their 2.1 update yet, we couldn't try it out on that device but did manage to do so on my HTC Desire.
First impressions of the box/presentations were pretty shoddy. For some reason here in the UK we were issued a 2-pin European plug (suggesting that etraders got their first batch from abroad) rather than a 3-pin one. Lucky I had an adapter at home. And it wasn't even in the box, it was just shoved in a bag in the mail package.
The accessories with the device are very plasticky. You get a wrist strap, a clip (to attach to pockets, bag handles etc) and a watch housing so you can attach it to the wrist strap. Actually getting the damn wrist strap/watch housing connected was very fiddly, took us about 20 minutes of messing around with little metal pins they supply to get it right. Again, why they couldn't have done this themselves is a mystery and making the customer do it is just frustrating.
First impressions of the device itself are decent, the calling/message notifications work well, the screen is large enough that you can read full text messages and you have the option to mute/reject calls when they come in.
Couple of annoying things: it does seem to lose its pairing fairly easily, maybe it's because we're using the Desire at the moment and not the X10 but I'm not sure. Also, the notification light (e.g. it flashes green if there is a message) doesn't last very long, just a few seconds, it would make more sense if it kept on flashing until you viewed the message.
Oh, one more annoying thing. If you lose the pairing, the watch can't show the time since it takes the time from the phone. My wife wouldn't mind using this as a watch as well, but she would need to have the phone with her all the time and paired up if that was the case. Again, not terribly practical.
there is potential though, the idea of plug-ins is a good one and hopefully there will be a lot of these to expand the functionality of the device.
Will write more once my wife's phone gets the update and is connected.

Couldn't try it with the MW600, but was able to test it with another stereo headset, the HB205 (Sony Ericsson). Worked fine no problem, tried calling the phone and the headphones stopped the music and rang the tone while the Liveview displayed the name/number and vibrated. I would imagine it would be the same for other bluetooth headsets.

Just to clarify, The liveview doesn't lose the time if it disconnects, it loses the time if you then turn it off completely (therefore resetting it).
In fact last night I went to find it to charge it as I only wear it at work, and I pressed the button and it was saying 1.06 am, and i hadn't even had my bluetooth on let alone had the thing near my phone.
Same thing with some of the connection issues, sometimes it goes wrong completely, but depending on what you do in certain situations, you can reconnect quickly.
The problem is SE haven't spelt these out, even pairing the thing in the first place was a nightmare, I had it for 48 mins and couldn't even use it, as i didn't know all the delicate things about it when things don't work. Couldn't really give this to someone as a gift as a casual user, may effect sales until they get the app working better. But I am okay with it now and its doing what I need it to do, and lasting the day.

It seems to me the native Android media player, can someone confirm? The odd thing is that I haven't found a way to start this media player stand alone...
I'm actually disappointed that the supported media player isn't Mediascape, so I can't start music from phone and then switch to Liveview!
Can confirm that supported music player is Android native player, which is a real bummer as I use mediascape for all my music. To activate, simply depress right button on liveview for 2-3 seconds.
I bought one today at a Telenor shop in Stockholm. It cost me 567SEK (60 EUROS) and I would recommend no one pays more than that for a LiveView in Sweden.
I agree with all the previous reviews. It does what it says on the tin ! But it is not ready yet to gift to your girlfriend for Christmas... The strap and holder are cheap plastic and I managed to bend one of the mounting pins whilst carefully trying to put it all together, if they had assembled the watchstrap before-hand it would have saved alot of problems. The instruction manual gave no direction on this at all ! If anything, the single diagram of the watchstrap was misleading.
The LiveView is smaller than expected, if anything it is too small and I wouldn't have complained if it was a little larger and 'styled' somewhat. It's the sort of thing that (and I hope SE have registered patents !!!) SonyEricsson could sell the LiveView module to a proper watch manufacturer like Seiko who could make something more stylish out of it. As it is, it is a small, square bit of plastic which performs some functions but is clearly capable of much more.
This is one of those things that you think is a good idea, but far too early for release. I can promise you that you will all be wearing a 'LiveView' type device in five years time.... But the current version is really still on the geek/hacker level.
But I do hope this does result in some interesting apps in the next few months.
My current, major technical concern with LiveView is that if it is more than 2 metres away from my X10 then it loses connection. My Bluetooth headset can easily manage 5 metres and so should LiveView. But it does manage to automatically reconnect to my X10 when in range, but it leaves the "Find my phone" application pretty useless.

"music" / "gallery"
so whats the definitive answer on the mw600 connected at the same time as liveview ?! can both be used at the same time ?!
can u listen to music whilst reading texts emails etc !? ...ie both devices connected at the same time without disconnection (i can cope with the calls being halted or an odd stall when i get a text but if both cannot be used at the same time then it defeats the object of having wireless devices with the bluetooth headphones and the liveview to control it!
I can confirm that LiveView and Mw600 can work together, at the same time with no problem !

Cheers to you both for answering a question I've been trying in vain to get SonyEricsson Support (useless) to answer for me.
-when listen music either on HTC music widget or PowerAmp
- got Gap and silent when using Bluetooth headset
- works fine if direct connect to the ONE X
any idea and fix ???
I've yet to see if this works for bluetooth but had a look at the ROMeOS rom and saw this in the build.prop as monx seams to have fixed the stutter: lpa.decode=true
I've set this in my build.prop and will try through the car bluetooth tomorrow.
To edit build.prop in the system folder you will need root access
thanks , buddy , let me know the result.
Unfortunately made no difference for me, will keep digging though as this is annoying when I have a 40 min commute to work each morning and again back.
Anyone have any idea's?
Edit: this doesn't just happen on the beats setting, turning it off makes no difference.
Anyone have any ideas on any fixes yet?

Have the same stutter issue even after 1.28 update connected with my bluetooth MW600.
Seems the problem is device switching to power conserve core. When i play music in background while running GPS in foreground, iam not getting the stutter.

I have the same bluetooth headset, the MW600 and the stutter makes it unusable. I'm on 1.29 stock now and I got to the point that I don't use my MW600 for listening to music anymore, but just wired Sennheisers.
Have you found a solution yet?

I was also planning on buying that Sony thing, but then I found my Nokia BH 214 back. It is now charging and when I'm back home I will test it. If it also stutters, I'm not going to buy a new headset, because it's likely to have the same problems, although that Sony is Bluetooth 3.0, which could make a difference.
I'll let you know the results with the Nokia.
I have stutter problem with sennheiser Bluetooth headphones. Am on stock 1.28, and disabling beats doesn't help (although did help on older version)

I'm running 1.28 & have the same issue with my car kit which is a works supplied Nokia car kit that allows A2DP connections. I'm definitely going to try running the GPS at the same time on my way home from work to see it that fixes it as suggested. I have a usb charger that I plug in so won't be using any extra juice. I'll post back my results.

Sorry for the very late reply, I completely forgot it. Just yet I tested the Nokia BH 214. First my One X couldn't find it, tried for almost 10 minutes. Then I disabled WiFi, just to try, and yes the headset was found. Then I put WiFi back on, but it refused to communicate. Wifi off again, communicating worked. So to say pairing was easy: far from that.
Now the next phase: listening to music. Completely unusable. Very very bad. There's something wrong with output, vocals are washed away and sound like the singer is 100 miles away. While quality isn't an issue with the MW600. But also the gaps. What is also very strange is when the phone is on my desk in line of sight with my headset, the are only a few gaps. But as soon as I put the phone in my pocket, the gaps increase exponentially.
So I think in my case the only thing left is to send the phone back. There must be something wrong with it, my WiFi reception is also very bad. Bluetooth also sucks, so since WiFi and Bluetooth are handled by the same chip, there must be something wrong with it. I really like the phone and sending it back means it's away for 2/3/? weeks, but first I hoped it was something with the software but that hope is fading away.
--------edit: just pissed of by all this. Called HTC and I'm sending it back for repair. Nice phone, but basics like WiFi and Bluetooth must work and they don't. They said it will be back in 7-10 working days. Hope they can keep that promise. --------
Have the same problem with my Jabra Freeway, really annoying to get thos silent gaps when listening to podcasts and music in the car. Tried to run navigation on my way to work today to see if that made any difference but it didn't :-(

I just tried using my Moto S10-HD after reading this, and thought I would tell you my experience. I have alot of music on my phone, and I just hooked up my BT with Wifi on and no issues, so I started to play music and so far 3 songs and no gaps stutter or anything like that. One thing that does happen which prior phones didnt happen is that when the screen goes to stand by after not touching it, there is a .5 second interruption in the song, but thats it I am currently on my forth song and the phone is in "standby" mode and it plays perfectly.
I have the WWE version of the phone using 1.29.401.11 ROM BL unlocked, rooted, and custom stock rom.
Not sure that it helps you but to share my experience; I have occasional stuttering on bluetooth using my Sennheisers if the phone is in my pocket. I found that I can replicate the stuttering if I completely cover the top of the phone with a hand on either side and cupped together at the top - in fact I can cut off bluetooth playback altogether.
This isn't a normal way of holding the phone obviously - but it does count if the phone is in your pocket, there is already some 'resistance/interference' from the surroundings. Other than that, I have great wifi reception, best of any phone I have had.
Could this be a hardware fault? Maybe they just need to boost the bluetooth signal / improve buffering?
I only got my HOX this week, aside from this issue it is great, no other issues - touch wood
Mine seemed to studder when it was in my pocket while I walked my dog. I sent it in for other issues and we'll see if the new one has similar issues.
Same problem here ! Kinda disapointed !
Same problem SonyEricsson HBH-IS800
I also have a lot of stuttering. It appears to be a very weak signal because it works better (though still not flawless) when I have the phone close to the headset.
Putting the phone in my pocket is already far enough for playback to completely stop working.
I first came across this problem on my GS3 and hardly anyone cared. Luckily CM10 did away with most of these problems. Now that I have a GN2 I can't use AOSP due to the stylus. How do you guys get around the loud notification sounds from the speaker while you are working in a quiet environment? Having to mute your notifications doesn't seem like a valid option because you might not know you got one then. On every phone I've used in the past, regardless of OS, there was an intelligent audio router that put everything through the headphones. Obviously you are listening to the headphones, so why pump it out the speaker? I'm sure people at the library love hearing blaring whistle sound effects, haha.
Secondly, an issue that CM10 also fixed on my GS3 was handling Bluetooth calls while headphones were plugged in. Once again, every other phone I've owned has been smart enough to allow the Bluetooth to override the headphone connection. This is particularly annoying in my two cars... I have to plug in the audio cable to the aux port, but I also connect to the hands-free systems. When a call comes in, I have to unplug the cable while driving to get the sound through the speakers. Seems like a lawsuit waiting to happen, and a clear sign that someone at Samsung just wasn't thinking about common priorities. These are not A2DP systems, hence the requirement for aux. Though I prefer the audio quality over aux over BT any day, so that should always be an option regardless.
Frustrated, since I don't have a workaround like I did on my GS3. Bah.

As far as notifications being on the speaker with headphones. That doesn't happen on my Note
Ringer volume and notifications volume are two different slides, In CM10 they can be merge, on by default i think.
turn down the notification volume from the volumes setting, or expand the volumes (gear button) when you hit either volume button and turn down the notifications volume.
In the bluetooth settings you can configure each device to hand just media, just voice, or both. Again gear button in that menu.
Also "Why does no one care about...blah blah blah" in a topic subject is uninformative and a little insulting, do better next time

That doesn't explain anything... yes, notifications go through Bluetooth if you use A2DP, but the moment you hook up the actual headphone port, with the basic hands-free profile, like a car, the notification sounds do not come out the aux cable. They either come out of the speaker, or the BT device. Honestly, suggesting to turn down or disable the notification volume is a copout. I think most people are unaware of these issues, and then there are many like you, who strangely just don't care, or sidestep the issue. These are both fairly serious issues, honestly. One could even be life-threatening if you get in an accident while playing with the aux cable.

You sir, need to prioritize your life before you hurt someone. (You brought it up)
Also, turning down the volume WILL solve the problem of the volume being to loud.
Of course I wouldn't allow myself to get in an accident due to that, but what is the point of a Bluetooth hands free system when Samsung requires you to fiddle with a cable rightwhen the phone rings?

Looks like you got 3 options.
1. Wait for CM (Support it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2019062)
2. Turn down the volume while you use headphones (Use tasker to automate)
3. Throw your phone in the river and use your HTC again
Also don't text and drive
Shouldn't use your phone at all when driving, since talking actually diverts more of your attention than texting... however that isn't the topic of discussion. I'm more curious why people don't care, myself. It doesn't bother you at all that every time you plug in your headphones in a quiet place, you have to manually turn off your sounds and might miss something important? What about a loud environment? I would never feel my phone buzz in my pocket when I'm running around the data center.
Seems like a mix apathy and not knowing it's an actual bug.

Nothing is very important. Automated with tasker once, never had to worry about it again. People dont care because its not an issue for most and the rest just turn it down.
I myself found it to be very strange. I'm used to HTC phones, they always do notifications through head phones. It would be nice to implement.

I would have hoped that Google or Samsung would have addressed this by now but that doesn't appear to be the case.

I'd swear CM10 does it properly, so I didn't thinking was all Android, just TW-based stuff, which we can't use since we have the stylus.
Agreed, this issue did not occur with my galaxy nexus. I hate it on my SIII, whenever I study in quiet places I have to turn the sound down. SOmetimes I forgot, and people look at me like they want to punch my ribs out when I get an email.
Why is this not addressed?
I am using SoundAbout but it causes major issues while listening to audio over the headphone jack. When I'm connected in my car, my music skips randomly. I am using a galaxy note 2.
There is an option under accessibilities that allows you to make your camera flash, well flash, when you get a notification. Not a solution, but another option. Of course if you forget to turn the sounds off and your flash is strobing also, the library I'd going to turn into a discotech... lol.
Well at the library your phone should be on silent or vibrate, if you crashed while messing with your phone in the car and then tried to sue samsung/google you'd be laughed right out of court. How is it anyone's fault but your own that YOU were stupid enough to crash your car because you couldn't leave your phone alone while driving, which is the law in most states(no phone while driving) you can also set a profile to lower the ringer/noti volume when headphones are plugged in. No one cares because its not an issue for anyone who sets up their profiles properly.
I like to break stuff!
