Hi guys,
Do any of you use an AVRCP capable bluetooth device (headset, iPod docking station bluetooth adapter, car bluetooth kit, etc.)?
I have a Belkin AirCast that works without any issues with an iPhone 4S but when paired to my note 2 it works ok except next causes the volume to go down instead of changing to the next song.
I have tested this with stock ROM and also ARHD 3.0 (first was on ARHD then flashed back to stock with complete wipe).
I have also checked /system/usr/keylayouts/AVRCP.kl for the keycodes and they are identical between stock and ARHD3.0 ROM and the same as what I have found on the internet.
What do you guys think the problem might be? And do you think there is a solution trying to tweak the .kl file until all commands work correctly?
Is there an event dumper that can dump to a logfile all the input events the device receives?
Thanx,
No problems with any of the 3 BT devices I use. (Mini boom box, Jaybird Freedoms, and car head unit)

I'm thinking of upgrading to this phone, one of the main reasons is that my current device, which has galaxy S guts, is not compatible with most bluetooth devices. I like to use an app called blueputdroid that turns my phone into a universal keyboard as well as an ELM bluetooth device that turns my phone into a dyno along with the torque app for my car.
For some reason the way samsung built the bluetooth makes it not work with a lot of these things, I know it's not the apps or 3rd party devices as I use my old G1 now for it, but would much rather just have my main phone be my one device.
Have any of you tested blueputdroid or any bluetooth devices? If not could someone try out blueputdroid with this phone (it's free in the market) any help would be much appreciated thanx!!
Says it has detected unsupported Bluetooth stack.. Install cyanogen Rom, etc.
Thanks, at least this phone is likely to get cyanogenmod support which will fix the problem my SK sure as hell won't
My GS2 works perfect with my ELM adapter. It worked perfect with my Vibrant too. I've never had a single problem with any bluetooth device on either of them.
I've had a lot of bluetooth problems with both my vibrant and now my GS2. Both work reliably with my wife's mini cooper bluetooth but they both have had problems connecting to the garmin nuvi I use for handsfree in my car (and forget about the A2DP on it).
I tried a lot of roms on my vibrant (incl stock) and they did lots of cool stuff but never made the BT connect reliably. Then I came across this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=795691
I made the suggested change to /system/etc/bluetooth/audio.conf and voila! I finally have good BT with my vibrant.
So I got my SG2 last week, rooted it and found that it also had the bad settings in /system/etc/bluetooth/audio.conf. However it also lacked BLN (backlight notification) and few other tweaks I've come to love on my vibrant so I flashed juggernaut 2.6. That fixed all the major foibles with the SG2 but it still won't reliably connect to my garmin.
I opened up the filesystem to find that /system/etc/bluetooth/audio.conf is no longer there! Does anyone know where it went?
Apparently I don't have enough posts to ask in the dev forum where juggernaut was posted http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1322642 so I'm hoping someone will see this plee for help.
thanks
the phone has BT 3.0, but it is backward compatible with BT 2.0 and 1.0 devices
i haven't had any trouble using it with my car deck (streaming audio & phone), my large collection of stereo BT devices, and other BT enabled phones & PCs/Laptops
the remote control feature from the stereo headsets works properly, for fast forward, backward, play, pause, talk, mute, etc
the only thing i have yet need to test BT on is with a BT smart wrist watch
I've tried to connect my phone via BT to two different cars and have no luck. It will scan for devices but won't find them at all. Does this happen to anyone else with the SIII? Strangely enough, it finds and connects to my JamBox is just fine.
What ROM are u on ? Stock or rooted?
What kind of cars I know my Audi A8 will connect but I always have to connect manually and enter the 1234 paswrd.

Still rocking the stock and unrooted for the phone. I tried on a Lexus GS and a Scion xB but no results show up. How do you connect manually? I should try that
Phone calls and bluetooth streaming works fine in my 2009 Mazda 6 (GT, no navigation). My phone is stock + root.
I use Slacker Radio everyday, launched by Automateit Pro when the connection to my car is established.
IIRC, I had to input a PIN on my phone, then in my car to do the pairing, and after that, I had to connect the phone manually to the stereo, but only once. After that, it's automatic when I start the car. Watch out for the "Only visible to paired devices" setting on your phone. It must not be checked.
I too have major issues with bluetooth, my phone connects whenever it feels like. I had to flash to cm9 to be able to listen to music in my G37. No problems in my other car (it has aftermaket pioneer system).
PS Just flashed the CM10 since they finally figured out A2DP, but the image is broken. (Note to myself: "Read the thread before flashing") Will wait for the next nightly build.
Nissan's always had a horrid BT stack in it. I'm in an 09 Altima and BT just sucks. I know it's not the phone as I've tried multiple phones from multiple vendors and they all suck. Nissan won't fix it either.
[Q] Bluetooth issue with Cars
I have AKOP Rom and KT Kernel. My bluetooth connectin to Mazda Cx-5 is fine. However, the problem I have is a lot of phone information (Song title, Battery Status) I used to have on stock, now are gone. Previously, I can fast foward or Rewind a song, also, once BT is connected, the default music player will start automatically
Can someone suggest a BT manager app which can change and enhance BT setting?
I have a 2009 Mercedes B200. My phone connects to the car just fine, but no sound comes from the speakers and no sound goes into the microphone. Same thing with my car and the HTC One X, although that was fixed with a stock ROM update. Bluetooth on cars can be very hit and miss.
I bought an Alpine CDE-HD137BT headunit for its Pandora functionality. However, I learned you need to have an AVRCP 1.3 supported ROM to use the BT Pandora source versus the less functional BT Audio source. So I found Codename Android and flashed it, but that didn't completely solve my problem.
Here is the situation:
If my radio is on the BT Pandora source and I launch Pandora the radio will read "No Pandora". The only way to get it to connect to Pandora is to
1. Start Vehicle (it is in BT Pandora mode)
2. Launch Pandora App (it will start playing but no audio will come out the radio)
3. Cycle through all the options back to BT Pandora.
4. Let it connect and enjoy.
Does anyone have any experience with this?
Edit: I tried to connect straight from the BT Pandora on an Incredible 2 and it worked. I'll test another ROM.

Hey, just ran across your post. Did you ever find a fix to the problem?
I have the same issue on my nexus 4. Bluetooth for automotive is checked in Pandora
First of all, CleanROM is a wonderful ROM. I have installed it on my ATT Note 2. :good:
However I have one slight problem if you guys can help me figure it out.
My bluetooth connects perfectly to my car stereo (A Brand New Pioneer made in July 2012). I can make phone calls perfectly, but I cannot play media via bluetooth. Meaning, when I try to play music it does not send a signal to the radio.
I made some troubleshooting steps to no avail:
1. The bluetooth Media option is checked under the bluetooth settings.
2. The car stereo works perfectly with my rooted Galaxy S II with Stock ROM 2.3.5 (phone + media)
3. My Note 2 fails to send media signal to my GF's new car Stereo (2013 model). Hence this is NOT an issue of an outdated bluetooth receiver. Again here, the same issue: it connects when making phone calls, but no media playing.
4. I even unpaired all other devices from the stereo to no avail.
I am starting to think it is an issue with the ROM..Is there an app I can download or some patch to fix this, or should I try a different ROM.
It took me 2 days to finally set up everything on my phone and I would hate to have to erase all and start all over.
Thanks a lot in advance for your help.

I'm having the same problem different radio.
I've searched and looked, and I can't seem to find a complete answer to exactly how the bluetooth works on these things.
As far as I can tell; there is the native bluetooth manager that's built into Android, and then a Bluetooth app. Seems like the app is used to make calls and stream from the phone?
I've also read that there cannot be an OBD2 sensor and a phone connected at the same time? I remember reading somewhere that's because Android doesn't actually handle the bluetooth itself, so if I were to get a bluetooth dongle, would that fix this?
FYI, I have a joying headunit and I have been using the Torque app w/ a Bluetooth ODBII adapter and received calls while both are connected. But yes the Bluetooth profiles that come with these units are very limited and basic.

What is your process in getting them to work together?

I remembered that I had another BT OBD2 adapter. I was using this one and couldn't get it to work, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B011NSX27A/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_F0mqxbPZDQSQ5
I then pulled out my old one, (not this exact one, but looks identical) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EQ57BE8/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_b8mqxbA6SEVRV and now they both are working together.

Is it possible to get DashCommand working on these units? I like it better than torque.

Sure no problem, and what I did is just buy a self powered USB hub and stick an additional Bluetooth dongle in there (android compatible, costs about $4) and pair with both.
Never had a problem with any of them
Hello,
The BT module in these devices are not an internal device, rather an external BT chip. There is no direct data line between device and BT chip. Basically they send commands and share metadata over serial port. Thats all about so dont consider it is a native bluetooth device.
