So should I be hearing music through my handsfree?
I used my phone for GPS for the first time and I love hearing Nav notifications through my handsfree set. What I couldn't figure out is how to keep using my handsfree set without music playing through it. Nothing would play through the AUX port of my car stereo unless I turned off my handsfree.
I want to be able to hear music through the car stereo and notifications / calls through the headset - is that possible?

I don't think it's possible. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think your phone manages both at the same time. You could have them go through the same one tough. That's what I personally do, both on bluetooth audio system (car).
How did you manage to get it to play on both? For me it seems like it has to be one or the other

Both on bluetooth? I simply have both running at the same time.
My issue was that it seemed like I can only do one or the other. I saw in the settings for my voyager legend that you can make calls through headset but have music still play through car stereo
That works

Not sure I completely understood what you're trying to do, so this may not be what you're wanting.
But if you go to your Bluetooth pairings on the phone and then go to the settings for your Car Stereo Bluetooth pairing, there is an option for either Call Audio or Music Audio. You can de-select the Music Audio so that only Call Audio plays through Bluetooth to the Car Stereo.
All I want is to be able to still hear navigation notifications in my headset while still be able to hear music through car stereo. That doesn't seem possible. I either hear it....
1) All in my headset (phone calls, music and notifications) or car stereo
2) Phone calls in headset (and navigation notifications if I'm on the phone) with music and notifications in car stereo
But I want it to be phone calls plus all notifications in headset regardless if I'm using the phone and music in car stereo

I went ahead and did a little search. Android seems to do it on it's on so I'm not sure why you can't connect to both and hear what you want in both.
I personally don't connect to 2 devices at the same time but I do get/hear everything in my car audio system (navigation, music, calls, notifications) and that can all be at the same time. The music sound will just lower when navigation girl speaks and when a notification comes in.
Now I dunno if you searched for this but I did find a app that might help (can't try it myself as I only connect to one): Smart Bluetooth Widget Free. There's also a paid version.
And like the other guy mentioned, you can select in the bluetooth options what you want to be streamed through it.

Can't get the audio to play through the car.
Calls work fine, connects fine...but with winamp playing and car on Aux Input, no sound comes through the car.
I couldn't find any settings to switch audio output. Phone plays no sound and nothing is heard from the car either.
Anyone else experience this an have a remedy?
Thanks!
Is this through a cable or bluetooth?

I know it's a stupid question, but have you paired the Dinc properly? Have you been able to make phone calls with the Incredible over Bluetooth and Sync? What year/model Ford?
One issue I've had is when you have >2000 contacts and you download them to Sync. That breaks connectivity incessently. Solution is to NOT download phonebook, only those handful of contacts (family, office, etc.) you believe you'll need regularly.
never downloaded the phonebook and its worked the couple times i've used it. 2011 fusion. Seems to pair fine, just can't figure out how to properly play music.
Pair & Play
I can assist - I use Ford Sync w/ my Incredible. Works seamlessly, one of my favorite features!
Make sure vehicle & device is paired successfully - follow instructions in manual to do that.
I press the speak button, say "Bluetooth Audio", open my music player on the Incredible and the music plays through the car speakers - just like voice BT.
When playing Angry Birds or other things on the device, you hear game output sound through the car speakers.
Note that when you flash other ROMs, your BT pairing(s) for Ford Sync, ear-based BT devices, etc will go away.
Solution? Titanium Backup - backup those pairings, flash, restore BT pairings.

Hello my fellow Galaxy S II owners...
I have a dying Sony Xplod stereo installed in my car that only run MP3s, nothing special about it.
I want to buy a new stereo system that can pair with the Galaxy S II so that I can stream music to it and make phone calls while driving.
Since this is new to me, I would like to ask for your help figure out what my options are:
- Shall I get a stereo system with USB link? or bluetooth? and why?
- A simple research on the XDA forums says that not all Galaxy phones can make phone calls using the USB link, is that the same for the bluetooth?
I'm thinking this would be good, but I want to hear from you too, what do you think? http://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-DEH-6...ef=sr_1_2?s=car&ie=UTF8&qid=1337028884&sr=1-2
Thanks,
I have both in my car and prefer bluetooth by a long shot.
To be honest I never heard of the possibility of using USB to make phone calls. As far as I knew the only thing possible with USB was to use your phone as some kind of mass storage device, where it would find your .mp3 files and be able to play them.
With bluetooth you can play everything on your phone that plays through the speakers. I use it for navigation / phone calls / radio / spotify. Also the buttons on the steering wheel of my car work perfectly for switching tracks on my phone, and the track info is displayed in the dashboard of my car.
Especially combined with spotify this is amazing. On my PC spotify client I just favorite some new songs and without having to take my phone out of my pocket the music is synced to my phone via wifi, then when I get in the car all my music is right there! You'll need a spotify premium account though, but in my opinion well worth the money.
Just make sure that when you buy your new stereo it is able to play A2DP. On my previous car this wasn't supported and this meant I was only able to use it for making phone calls.
Funny thing was that whenever I was in the middle of a phone call and my nav on my phone gave me a "turn left" notification or something it played fine during the phone call. So if you ask me this was just lazyness from the developers not to implement it. To anyone thinking about buying a new car, avoid "Blue & Me" it really is terrible.
Hope this information helps you in your decision
Thank you for the reply, now I know what I should be looking for.
I'll update this post once I get the stereo and test it
Thanks once again

The subject says it all. Can I route audio through Bluetooth A2DP and the phone's speaker simultaneously? I want to keep my phone connected to my car's audio system via Bluetooth voice and A2DP. But sometimes I want to switch to XM Radio or other sources. When I do that of course, I lose audio prompts from Google Navigation.
Is this possible?

I'm looking for the same thing. I can get audio through Bluetooth and have notifications go to speaker at the same time, but I can't get other media to go to speaker at the same time.
I would also be satisfied with a widget that lets me toggle the A2DP status of the Bluetooth connection on and off. It would not be the end of the world if I needed to toggle the A2DP off when I switch to another radio source and toggle back on when I go back to Bluetooth as the source in the car.

If you ask me I'd say it's possible.Whenever my phone is connected to my stereo through A2DP, the music is played through loudspeakers only by default. However, when there's an incoming call and my ringtone is being played I can hear it through loudspeakers AND the phone speaker, which creates a pretty cool surround effect. I'd really love to make my music player interact with all the speakers like this all the time. I took my chance installing various apps like SoundAbout to help me figure it out, all to no avail. Any ideas?
I've done a bunch of searches here and on Google. If I've missed the obvious please let me know.
When my phone is connected to my car stereo via BT and I get a phone call the car speakers "ring". No matter what source I'm listening to on the stereo. This is normal and expected.
I would like other notification sounds to act the same way. Facebook, SMS, Gmail, etc. I want the car speakers to transmit this sound. Even when listening to the radio, or XM. They will do it if listening to BT audio, but not without.
It's probably not possible, but I've been known to be surprised before. I've checked XDA, Xposed, Play Store, and Google.
Any ideas?
I use enhanced sms and caller id. Amazing app! Won't do everything you want but look into it.

Hi everyone so I installed a Nexus 7 in my car I mainly use it for navigation and music with an aux cable I can listen to music fine but not navigation voice. Is there anyway i could make the navigation sound from speakers?
I'm running CM 12.
Thanks for the help ?

I was playing around the other day and noticed that too. It seems that it can't do both at the same time. Don't know the limitations though. Paired phone to test and it can do it so I don't know what gives.
I don't wanted it to do both things at the same time. When I'm using nav I don't usually play music.
Do you use 3.5mm jack cable or bluetooth ?
My issue is that the google maps voice is way to loud compared to my spotify music.

Google Maps has a built in option to adjust navigation voice volume. Have you tried that?
You can use aux 3.5 mm jack and instal SoundAbout in your tablet to disable Microphone from Headsets. You don't have headsets, you have only an auxiliar cable and it is detected as headsets. After that you can use sound in car speakeres and voice for calling or voice commands from original tablet microphone.
