Hello, I can't seem to figure out how to use my wired headset to make calls via the stock wired headset? Only way to activate S voice is to physically press the button on the phone, but there doesn't seem to be an option on the headset...
Saying "Hi Galaxy" will bring up voice commands.
That doesn't seem to work
You checked "Yes this is a question"
Guess where it belongs?

I have a bluetooth car kit as well as bluetooth speakers. I listen to pandora and netcasts using my phone while driving ar working in the garage. Every time I get an email or a text the notification sound will pause what I am listening to and blast it out the bluetooth device. I find this mildly annoying and would like to either stop notifications when connected to bluetooth or better I would like the notifications to only play on the phone speaker.
Is there a setting, an app, or a hack to make this happen?

I just set my phone to vibrate when playing music. It won't interrupt the music and keep playing on vibrate.

I'm trying to set up a car hands free system. It is an S3 phone. The basic idea is that I would use the audio output of the phone for google play music to my car's stereo using an aux cable. To get a better sound signal i bought a HSP/HFP bluetooth mono SCO earpiece. It is not A2DP and the only option is for phone audio for in the bluetooth screen. I would use this to speak commands.
Has anyone successfully used the bluetooth mic for an app like "Voice Search Google" while keeping the audio output to the car?
I've looked into the code, what android does with the bluetooth profiles but it is complicated and if I change a number i wasn't sure if it would work. /system/etc/bluetooth has some interesting files. The one solution that does work for me is using EVA which surprisingly allows these features. this gives me hope but am a little confused why it only works with that app.
Thanks for any insight or suggestions

I have a Motorola Sliver bluetooth headset, and it works great on my S3. Upgraded to the S4 and everyone is saying that there's a crazy echo and that it's impossible to hear me at all. I've played with the sound cancelling options, and it still sucks.
Anyone else seeing problems with bluetooth headsets on the S4?

problem with Jabra Era and BlueAnt Q2 too
I have the same problem with both the Jabra Era and BlueAnt Q2. This would only happened if when I am on a voice call. Play back music and sound does not have the problem. Static noise, echo , crackle noises all happened during the voice call. Turn off the headset and using the phone alone does not have this problem. At first, I thought it's the network. I swap the SIM out and use my Atrix HD and everything is fine. This is more of the phone's bluetooth issue to me. Anyone else go the same issue?
Just to be clear (no pun) it's the audio that my callers hear that seems messed up, not the audio I hear. I switched to a Plantronics and people say that audio is great, so it may be a compatibility issue with the Motorola Sliver. That would suck.
This is an interesting issue. My S3 mic jack got messed up at some point. It still works fine most of the time. But sometimes when I have normal headphones plugged in, people can't hear me in a voice call, or the call simply hangs up.
But the most annoying thing is when it randomly activates Google Now, while Hotword detection is OFF. And starts issuing voice commands, like right now I'm listening to a podcast with people talking, and it literally picks up the audio from the people talking and searches it on Google. Right now as I type this post it's popping up in my face and searching stuff which is annoying. Somehow the noise going over the headphone jack is activating it. It's supposed to be off.
But if I turn hotword detection on, then disconnect the headphones completely, I can't get Google now to pop up from any app like that. EVER. Unless I'm already in the Google now app. But the messed up headphones can activate it from any app. How is this possible?
That's a new one I haven't heard yet. I have two suggestions. My first one is get it fixed under warranty if you can since it definitely sounds like its a hardware problem. Second is fix it yourself through a youtube video that deals with that issue. Can you recall how you broke it?

I had a similar issue and I believe it's the problem with the headphones rather than your Mic jack. When I used to plug my phone to my speakers Google now would pop up. But if I just plug in the Samsung headphones nothing would happen.

Hello. Yes, I know I should upgrade. However, I'm an old fart and I absolutely love this phone. It's perfect for me and it feels wonderful to use.
I am on Android 10, latest security patches, completely stock. Pixel 2 XL.
I cannot figure out how to get my phone to automatically answer a call when I am connected to Bluetooth. I have Googled, I have searched this forum.
Can anyone help? Thanks.
It's in the google voice settings

I don't think those settings will do what he wants. I have a Bluetooth Plantronics headset and hearing aids that connect with Bluetooth. For both I have to tap a button on the device to answer. The Plantronics headset will answer if it is off my ear and I put it up to my ear, but that is a setting in the headset, not the phone.

I just got a chance to look, and unfortunately no, the setting isn't there. I connect to an FM transmitter in my car, and still need to reach over and slide to answer when someone calls. I just want it to automatically answer so I don't need to touch the phone. When I use my ear buds that would be nice as well.
