[Q] Google Nav - no voice on 2.3.3 - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've just flashed my desire with insert coin's 1.0.9 rom 2.3.3 and the voice on google nav has turned itself right down when using the headphone jack and music is playing.
I have this set up so I can listen to music and navigate whilst driving. Any ideas on how to get around it?
I've searched on here but no luck so far.
Thanks

Ive read else where that its specificly related to the 3.5mm jack. So ive ordered a bluetooth fm transmitter. We'll see if that works

Sat Nav instructions through Bluetooth Audio?

Hi Guys,
I'm hoping this hasn't been discussed - I've searched and didn't find anything for Desire... (I've even googled it and still not found anything understandable)...
I'm using Co Pilot on my Desire, loving it, but I'm trying to get the audio instructions from the sat nav to be routed to the bluetooth kit in the car - it's the standard bluetooth handsfree that comes with Nissan cars... (not sure if that helps?)
I found something about an app called BlueAnt, but I can't find this on the Android Market
Is there any way of doing this?
Thanks in advance!!
I don't have an answer on how but I did watch a video of someone showing the desire working with audio in his car and that certainly played through his stereo. I think he had a golf. I'm almost 100% sure he took a call too and showed some sort of sat nav....
I'll look for it....
This might be software specific. Google navigation plays through Bluetooth but when I tried navigon it came from the phone. is there something in the settings?

Copilot8 works with bluetooth audio but not very well.
On my bluetooth radio I miss 1-2 seconds of audio from the beginning of each driving instruction.
Bluetooth media audio needs to be connected before starting Copilot for this to work.

Google Navigation Speech/Directions + A2DP

I hope someone might have the answer to this problem:
I'm using my Desire with a Nokia CK-100 carkit (which works perfectly), but also like it when the navigation directions are spoken via the A2DP.
Now all the audio works just fine via A2DP, but there is a delay before the audio is being played over the car speakers. This usually results in only hearing the directions after like 1-2 secs, thus I'm missing half the directions!
Read: I'd like to listen to my car radio, but have the directions over the speakers. And then the radio sounds/music are being muted by the CK100 carkit.
So: Does anyone know if it's possible to either change the way the directions/speech behaves? For example: add 1-2 seconds of 'silence' in front of the directions, or just some bogus word might help too .
Or perhaps there is a tweak that makes the switch faster and eliminate the 1-2 seconds delay before the sound is played over the speakers (I guess this might be a thing that has to do with the carkit, and not the Desire).
On a more 'funny' note, my Hero plays the directions just fine over the A2DP. But I think that has to do with the Hero being slower. I guess the Desire starts talking too fast, and then the CK100 doesn't have enough time to switch (or better, on the Hero the talking starts áfter the switch, with the Desire right away during the switch).
I have the same issue with Bluetooth headset HTC BH M300
At moment I disable the media connection on the Bluetooth headset options so I can hear the Google maps direction from the speaker of Desire...

Yeah, at the moment that's my solution as well. But some tweak which 'starts' the audio 2 seconds earlier (with 1-2 second silent gap then) would be best.
Perhaps the instructions can be modified in some way? I'm not 100% sure how that's done with Google Navigation. I believe it's done via the speech synthesis right? So perhaps there is some file in which the directions are stored? That might be the first step.
Maybe someone who has been digging around in the Google Navigation knows more about this?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Didn't know that fix...
What do I loose after disabling media connection? I guess that bluetooth music playback. If that's all that will be my definite fix...
Yep, no more audio over the bluetooth. But the phone/carkit will still work just fine.
The update to FroYo 'fixed' my problem! I can now hear the most important part of the directions. Yay!
So you might want to give it a try again after updating.
After official froyo update and with latest Google Maps installed the audio problem is still here :'(

I have the same problem.
I'm using the Parrot MKi9100 carkit and LeeDroid 2.0c Froyo rom.
Im using Sygic Drive 10 and first 1-2 sec of the instruction is cut-off when conected to the bluetooth. The same behaviour was over my BluAnt headset.
However Sygic over my Nokia e71 didn't had that issues.
Also I have other problem is when using Google Maps first 1-2 seconds are playing fine but the other part is silenced? Other way around!
Does somebody have any solution to this?

Audio forced through earpiece instead of headset on CM7RC2?

I had RC1, played music into a headset just fine. Now I'm on RC2, and I just noticed that when a headphone jack is inserted, the headset icon comes on, yet the audio is played through the phone's earpiece. Any ideas?

Been an idle thread for a long time. Bump!

[Q] Bluetooth with Aux Cable

I saw that this had been asked once before, but no suitable answers were given unfortunately. On my old Evo, I could play music through my stereo via aux cable, and the phone would switch to Bluetooth for calls. This meant cutting the music, and transferring to both the mic and earpiece for audio omy bluetooth.
Currently, the audio on my ET4G doesn't transfer to the bluetooth headset, but instead comes out of my car speakers. Any workarounds to get the call pushed to Bluetooth when it comes in, or am I stuck just unplugging the 3.5 mm jack?
For your info, I'm currently rooted and running Starburst 1.98, although I'm willing to change that if it can help with the issue. Thanks!
I've been wondering about this too. Seems like you can still talk through the BT headset, but the person you are talking to comes through the speakers instead of the headset.
And I am still completely stock and not rooted BTW.

Hmm . . .audio still coming through speakers for me.
It works while i'm my car dock so I guess it won't work through the headphone jack
