A2DP -> Bluetooth headset problems

I have a SilverCrest Bluetooth Stereoheadset 9300 (Probably a Toshiba Bluetooth headset)
The Silvercrest:

The Toshiba:
It looks the same and has the same accessories with it. So I guess it is the same but that doesn't mathers with my problem
I'm running the cooked WM6 Rom from adewidt (dutch). I have added the headset as an "stereo headset" and as an "handsfree-set" (together). But how can I let the music play by the headset? The first time when I make the sync between the headset and phone, I can listen music on it. But how can I connect to it when I want? If I turn on the headset and activate my bluetooth, it won't make a connection automatically. (my bluetrek G2 headset does make a connection on its own when I turn it on)
And when the headset is connected, it can just suddenly stop playing music. And when I change from song, it adds a half a sec/ a hole sec pauze to it.
So to summarize my question.
- How can I reconnect to the headset?
- Why can it just stop playing my music
- Why is there a pauze between the songs

anyone?

On most roms, you can't... I've tried one that it worked to connect and play as it should... On everyone else, the music skips...
(using SE DS970)

Use this for connect/reconnect:

And this helps if the music stops/pauses:

manos libres = handsfree

update: it doesnt even work as hands free.

When it is connected to A2DP then you should have a small headphone icon on the top bar. If it is not there then you won't hear anything through the headphones.
You need to test the headphones on another device or test another A2DP headset.
You could also try BatteryStatusPlugin which via the options can place a small bluetooth icon in the taskbar at the bottom, and when you click on this it gives the option to reconnect to A2DP headphones. I use this whenever mine becomes disconnected as it saves me having to turn them off and on again.
The 'Ebay' word has me slightly worried for you though!

If it's possible, I would try to update (or downgrade, even) the headset firmware. I once had this problem with my Jabra 8010 and that was the only way I got round it.

Visual VoiceMail and Bluetooth

I have a 2007 Infiniti G35 with Bluetooth. When I had a HTC EVO I was able to listen to voicemails when connect by bluetooth over the car speakers just like a call. When I purchased a Photon I lost that ability. Sent the Photon back and now have the 4G Touch and have the same issue. When in the car and connected by Bluetooth and I try to listen to a voice mail it does not play over the system. Anyone have any thoughts on why this might have worked on the HTC but not Motorola or Samsung?

Yes just saw this in the other thread. Note that in my previous HTC EVO this worked so it can be fixed.

Looking for a Car Speakerphone with Specific Features

I've got one right now that works nicely, except my phone doesn't disconnect from it when I leave my car and go into my apartment. If it runs out of battery power, it does not turn on automatically. I plan on buying another that powers on automatically and ripping out or killing the battery so that it only stays on when getting powered on by the car.
I'd like one that:
Turns itself on after losing power
Auto Connects to my phone
Has a built in speaker (instead of using the car's speakers)
I'd prefer it to have suction cups to mount on the windshield, but I can always easily attach it myself.
I'd prefer no voices telling me it's powering on/connecting
I thought I found one that would auto turn on with power as it has a physical switch to power on, but then saw this youtube video and think the voice would get very annoying very quickly. It depends on how loud the voice actually is in person I guess.

I recommend JABRA Speakerphone. Most of them has many feature like auto connect, auto on-off, etc.
Jabra FREEWAY Bluetooth Speakerphone
Jabra DRIVE Bluetooth In-Car Speakerphone
Jabra TOUR Bluetooth In-Car Speakerphone
Hopes help.

No audio on most incoming Bluetooth calls

My S20+ has had this problem almost as long as I've had my vehicle (with Ford sync 3). For whatever reason, if I take an incoming call on Bluetooth, about 80% of the time, there is no audio - I can't hear them and they can't hear me.
To troubleshoot I have to switch to speaker, then we can both hear each other.
If I'm on Android auto (wired), I have to unplug, then hit speaker.
My wife's Galaxy S21 ultra never does this.
It never happens on outgoing calls.
It seems equally likely to happen whether I'm using the phone for Bluetooth media (podcast app, separate music app both seem equally likely) or not using it for audio at all (i.e. Just listening to the radio)
It seems equally likely to happen whether I'm on Android auto (wired) or just connected to Bluetooth the old school way.
The only commonality is that it's on incoming calls on Bluetooth. I've been unable to identify what factor is different on those rare occasions when it does work
Twice I've tried completely unpairing and starting fresh. That seems to work, temporarily. But eventually it goes back to its old ways, so this is not a solution.
Are there a few developer options I may want to try checking on or off to see if they'll help? I don't want to go messing with that stuff unless it's recommended by someone here. Any other ideas?
