AOKP ICS 4.0.4 - USB Dock Feature not working? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Hello, first post here. I just flashed to the latest version of AOKP and it's works wonderfully. However, I'm wondering if I'm missing something. I have my phone (previously standard GB and then TnZ Blend Rom) plugged into my car's sound system via micro-usb, i.e. the car simultaneously charges the phone and receives audio signal from it as well.
Now when I plug the phone in, sound only plays through speakerphone, not the car's. Has the feature been disabled? I notice that in the phone's system settings, 'Dock' is not listed anymore.
Is it available in Milestone 5?
TIA for your help!

I noticed this too, I think it's just something that hasn't been implemented yet, as there isn't a huge demand for car dock integration. People are more concerned with being able to use AOKP as a daily driver.

I tried AOKP after trying CM9 and the lack of this feature made be run back to CM9.

Thanks so much for your help guys. I'm moved on the CM9 as dewey recommended. But now I have camera issues.

CM9 car dock also no dice
I'm guessing my car interface uses the HDMI to play audio?
FYI, I installed a Grom Audio box with the connector specifically made for E4Gs and G4S2s. Do y'all have any experience with this?
Can't wait for proper car dock to be integrated into CM9, AOKP and the like. Developers, I know this is not a "priority" feature, but are you listening?

[Q] Does the SGS3 have USB audio out?

Does the ATT SGS3 have USB audio out for with external USB DAC/Amps? Because if it does, I'm giving up my Infuse, lol. I saw somewhere that the international version does, but I don't want to pay $600 for an unlocked version. Thanks.
I believe this is an added feature in Jelly Bean, so it should only be stable on the Galaxy Nexus at this point.

That would be awesome! Any idea when S3 is getting Jelly Bean?
I'm pretty sure I'm asking the same question as above but want to get some clarification in less technical-speak: I recently switched from AT&T iPhone 4 to AT&T S3 and ended up switching back to the iPhone. I kept the Android though because I'm hoping that Jelly Bean solves the one major issue that was a showstopper for me: subpar support for USB audio on the S3, and any Android as far as I'm aware. One of the main uses of a mobile device for me is the ability to do USB audio in the car with it, both with audio stored on the device and streaming. I drive a 2011 Lincoln MKX with the Ford/Lincoln Touch system in it, and the iPhone seems to work great over USB audio. The Android only works with audio stored on the device, so I have to switch over to bluetooth in order to do streaming (Spotify, Pandora, etc.), and then the track/artist/etc. info doesn't show onscreen.
Does anybody know if Jelly Bean will allow streaming audio over USB? I'd love to switch back to Android but that's holding me back.
Thanks much
certain usb dac's work with this phone there are several threads about this already
Understood, but do any of them work with Ford Sync?
I don't know if this helps, but under the settings - doc menu, there is an audio when docked option which should allow for Audio over USB. It at the very least allows analog sounds over USB with certain CAR docks.
No luck with that option. The main difference I see between Android and iPhone is the iPhone will interrupt whatever audio is playing whenever you switch apps to play something new. Android will only play the native apps. So, for example, I plug my Android into USB. It'll start playing whatever's stored on the device, and if I open say Pandora it'll look like Pandora's playing but the audio will still be of the stored audio. The iPhone will fade the stored audio and play Pandora instead. That's the function I'm really looking for that's missing from Android.

Different bluetooth stack?

Hi everyone,
The bluetooth on my GSIII has been a complete failure. You can follow the saga here (http://www.benzworld.org/forums/w245-b-class/1662643-2009-w245-samsung-galaxy-s-iii.html), but basically it connects to my car and has no sound with the stock ROM and refuses to connect to the car at all with the AOKP JB build. It suggests an android problem, so I'm wondering if the bluetooth stack can be reloaded to reflashed with something different. If anyone has any ideas, I'm all ears. Thank you!
I have a problem with one of my Bluetooth devices dropping and reconnecting. Not sure why is just one. It works fine on an iPhone. I'm guessing your GS3 isn't the international version?

Sweet! please let us know!
I'm having a different issue. it connects and stays connected, plays music but it doesn't list the song/artist info on my eclipse screen but the SG2 will..
Update: no change with the new kernel. The phones pairs but there's no sound, just as was the case before.

Try CM9. Bluetooth works much better with it. CM10 should have it fixed as well in a day or two.
Here's a 'six months later' update. My phone went through various android updates and I'm now on Android 4.1.1 (up from 4.0.4). The problem was still not solved, but instead of no audio, I now have one way audio, where people hear me but I don't hear them through bluetooth. I have also gone through a number of custom ROMs and kernels for my phone (including CM9/10 and AOKP) and nothing helped with the issue.
A couple of days ago, my girlfriend's HTC One X (finally!) got its Android update, also from 4.0.4 to 4.1.1. Her phone now works like a charm with the in-car bluetooth.
The solution I ended up with was a car cradle and a couple of NFC tags to control my phone in the car. My NFC tag that's stuck to my car cradle turns off WiFi, starts car mode, starts a car home app and turns my volume to max. All I have to do after that is connect the 3.5mm audio cable and I use my phone in place of the car's infotainment system. That way the phone integrates into the car as well and the only thing I lose are the steering wheel controls (they still work for volume).
My less technologically inclined girlfriend now has everything work auto-magicallly with bluetooth. So I guess all's well that ends well, but to anyone considering a US-spec Galaxy S III, watch out: the bluetooth issue is still not fixed. If bluetooth is critical, consider the HTC One X (but be warned: it has awful battery life!)
I have no issues with stereo Bluetooth and mono Bluetooth. Everything and everyone hears and plays fine. It might be an issue with your headset.

Colby. What version of android, kernel / rom combo are you using?? There's SOOO many people having problems with JB and bluetooth, regardless of rom or kernel setup.
If you're on stock... just nm then.

What's wrong with stock? I have no major issues with streaming BT from my phone to my Mazda 3 head unit, or to my Sony MW600 earphones. Even track titles work (the only thing that doesn't work is time display). In my experience, Bluetooth works best on the stock ROM.
Stock Rogers ROM (DLK4 - JB 4.1.1), rooted
KT747 (1/9/2013) kernel
CWM Recovery 6.0.2.3
PlayerPro Music Player
On my old Xperia X10, I had CM7 and had no end of issues with BT:
- Sometimes it would connect and there would be no sound
- Sometimes it wouldn't connect at all
- Sometimes it would cut out after switching songs
- It would stutter a lot whenever Wi-Fi was enabled (but I think that was a problem with the Xperia).
When I tried CM10.0 on my S3 I had similar connection issues, just not as bad. Also, the volume gain over BT was much lower, so I had to turn the car speakers way up. Stock 4.1.1 doesn't have any of these problems. The only problem I had was the audio switching over to speaker after turning off the car, but I fixed it.
Also, BT is apparently broken in 4.2.1 in general, not just CM10.1. Google confirmed a BT patch that works on the Nexus 7, due for release with 4.2.2: http://www.expertreviews.co.uk/smar...confirms-android-4-2-bluetooth-streaming-flaw
TIP: Don't forget to turn up the volume on your phone. I don't know how many times I accidentally turned down the volume and thought that it wasn't working. Now I have Tasker do it for me whenever I connect. :good:
4.1.2 has Bluetooth working use it everyday. (Stock and ROM.) Can't tell u which combo I use at a time. I flash a different ROM everyday. As 4.2.1bluetooth is broken expect for task's AOKP. He has it workingish.
Now as connecting to a car. Depends on what it connects as. And I've learned going to and from ROMs when u connect a source hit the volume up 9/10 times it works

OTG Audio

Hey guys i'm wanting to use a utg cable for audio out. It works on the stock rom without any issues, but i just tried the CM10 ROM and a mouse would work, but i was not able to get any audio to my amp.
was wondering if anyone has found a rom that they knew would work instead of having to flash a bunch of different Roms myself.
I think this is related to Jelly Bean itself, it implements digital audio output over usb and disables the standard analog output over usb. Of course, this renders the audio over usb portion of existing accessories worthless (reminds me of a recent move by a different, rather rotten, company). I don't know for certain, but I suspect that currently all JB ROMs have this "feature".
hmm well that sucks. I just tried Hellfire's rom and it didnt work either. I wonder if i install the leaked Samsung Jelly Bean update if it will still work.. I just want to connect my Fiio E7 and be able to get audio

USB audio out on 4.4

Is there any way to get audio out via usb on 4.4? I really don't want to have to drop back down to stockish. I have the iBolt dock in my car and use it all the time for music and nav, but since I went to Slick Ricks PA it doesn't work. I think it has something to do with Samsung's kernel but does anyone have a work around for it?
Nope, not that I have heard (on 4.3 or 4.4). USB dac support is why I'm on 4.1.2.

[Q] Line Out Audio with Universal Samsung Dock

Hello, i have a question for you!
I bought the Samsung Galaxy Universal Multimedia Dock (www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/EDD-D200BEGSTA)
which is designed to work with most of the Galaxy family, including our Gnex. Now, everything works well but when you try to connect a 3.5mm Jack to the Line Out, speakers won't reproduce music. I mean, the gnex's speaker keeps working, while it should switch to the external output.
I've read somewhere that the feature that adds Music Stream via USB (which should be named DAC or something like this) has been added since Jelly Bean. But on my stock 4.3 Gnex it is still not working.
Now my question is: is there a ROM or a Kernel that makes our Gnex able to reproduce audio with the Line Out while on dock?
(also, when you go to settings->sound->dock, audio is grayed out and can't access.)

is it included in the rom or it's a part of his kernel?
