hi, i have a loox 720 with the a2dp profile, can i use this with a BT stereo phones with AVRCP function that i just bought or do i need to install AVRCP profile as well to get remote control function?
if so does anybody have a link to cab?
thanks
i never heard of a bluetooth profile being installed in the conventional sense. ask the guys of firstloox.org's forums for more info on this.
I have the Motorolla S9 bluetooth A2DP stereo headset.
I also have the Hero currently running VillainROM 3.4 but I've been trying to run a bt connection for A2DP media playback with almost all Android 2.1 ROMS with same results.
The phone pairs fine but once I start playing any mp3 headset disconnects and reconnects at random.
I should mention that bluetooth works great in my car with the stock stereo system for simple phone calls.
I searched the entire forum but couldn't find anyone else with this issue ... Modaco 3.1 people report bt stereo playback to be working fine .. I think this is a 2.1 issue as VillainROM 3.3 and 3.4 and BeHero and other 2.1 based roms have this issue.
please HELP
Hello rafynet
i had same problem and i have solved with this method:
your phone must be rooted
there is a file in /etc/bluez/audio.conf
copy that to your pc.Change the lines
from
-----------------------------
Enable=Source,Control,Sink
Disable=Headset,Gateway
-----------------------------
to
-----------------------------
Enable=
Disable=Headset,Gateway,Source,Control,Sink
-------------------------------------------
save it.
copy the changed file back to /etc/bluez/
I have tried this solution in all rom that i have tested and all work well for me, watch the entire article:
Issue 3960: Bluetooth issues with car systems in Android 1.5 / 1.6
I'm sorry, i can't post this link on forum!!
search it in google.
sorry for my english!
I'm waiting your feedback!!
I hope this solution works well for you. Try this!
your solution helped a little bit ... but bluetooth connection still drops and re-connects all the time ... it's very annoying.
I'm fairly sure this will be fixed when we get the official Hero 2.1 update.
I had noticed the same thing with my Motorola T505 ROKR handsfree adapter. Worked fine in 1.5, but in 2.1 it would disconnect every 30 seconds or so, then reconnect.
However... I've just got a new car stereo (Pioneer DEH-P6100BT) and it actually works *BETTER* in VillianROM 4.0 than it did in Modaco 3.2. In Modaco, it would only connect to "phone audio" and not "media audio," and I had to go into the Android settings and enable "media audio" each time I got in my car. With VillainROM, it connects automatically and it doesn't disconnect. Also, I've found that in 2.1, when listening to BT Audio, the music doesn't get interrupted by notification sounds, which I hated about 1.5.
I've had nothing but problem with a2dp on the hero, and it's probably the feature I need to work the most. I tried a whole host of 1.5 and 2.1 roms but none of them would consistantly connect to my pioneer deh-p700bt. I read somewhere that it's been a problem for lots of people since the 2.73.x series of updates, so I downgraded to the T-Mobile 1.76.110.6 stock rom and it's worked perfectly for me ever since! I'll have to stick with that one for now and hope it gets fixed in the upcoming 2.1 update
Hi,
I have a question about this subject :
i have a bluetooth car stereo with phone handfree inclued.
With all ROMs I tried (and a tried a lot...)
the phone handsfree always worked
Depend of the ROM, some items were available or not : (battery indicator or signal level indicator for example)
With only one ROM (and I don't remember which one), I could transfer my contact list from the phone to the car stereo system (with bluetooth).
Does someones knows if this feature will be again available into the next ROM (official or not) ?
Thx
PS : sorry for my bad english

The Android SDK did not include a bluetooth API in 1.5, but it is included in 2.1. I would guess we'll see a big improvement with the official 2.1 update.
I searched and couldn't find another thread about this so here goes...
Got a new bluetooth car stereo and my music and calls sound great, but my EVO doesn't transfer the track title/artist/album info to the stereo for some reason. I know it's not the stereo itself as my friend paired his BlackBerry and it showed the track titles. Tried this in stock music app, DoubleTwist, PowerAMP and unrooted on 2.2 and rooted w/CM7. Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Possibly just answered my own question but if anyone can confirm that would be great...it looks like the EVO only supports AVRCP v1.0 so far?? And if so, is there any way to upgrade the BT profile to 1.3 or 1.4 to allow for metadata transfer? Again, thanks in advance.
Yeah... the evo bluetooth profiles fail.
I'm currently using PowerAmp and love it...I know that metadata xfer is and has been working for stock player for a while, but does anyone know if this feature is available on any ROM besides AOKP? They're dropping support for us :crying:

If you're using a new phone with bluetooth 4.0, AVRCP 1.3, metadata transfer will not work until the music player devs update their programs. A rooted phone may work. For non rooted we are at the mercy of the devs, and poweramp has been promising an update for over a year now.
I'm currently using AOKP and am having issues with stability when using Pandora over the Pioneer link to my new head unit. It works, but if I try to skip a song, my phone freezes up and eventually reboots itself. I'm pretty sure its because of issues with these protocols support so I was wondering if there was an AOSP rom that has really good bluetooth support. The protocols it needs is:
A2DP profile for audio streaming.
AVRCP profile for audio control (track metadata available on 2013 and 2012 AVIC and AVH models with AVRCP 1.3).
SPP (Serial Port Profile) for full, on-screen control of Pandora® internet radio and Aha™ Radio (for Navigation receivers)apps when installed on Android device. Please check the owner's manual of your Pioneer receiver to verify compatibility with the Bluetooth SPP profile.
Does any of that make sense? Would I have better luck with just standard CM10?
Hi all
is there any ROM newer than ICS supporting bluetooth AVRCP 1.3 enabled? It's that profile that stream metadata (ID3) to the device connected via A2DP for audio streaming, in other words I would like my car dect showing ID3 info in the display. Is it possible with newest ROM (JB o KK)?
Thanks
Up!
