Hey guys.... i have a Sprint Galaxy S3 and i just got a new Kenwood head unit for my truck... bluetooth sync works fine and it plays music but meta data wont work and doesnt show the track name... i tried CM10 but there were so many hiccups and glitches it wasnt even worth being able to read the track name in my truck lol... im currently running ReVolt- JB- d2spr- Nightly 20130603 annd 3.4.450- cyanogenmod kernel... Ive been having some service issues and im wondering if it could be the kernel... i know how to flash roms and all that but im not really sure what a kernel is or does... or if i could update that and fix the service issues AND Bluetooth support baked in... or no? Also battery life is HORRIBLE! not sure what i can do for that but im running juice defender now.... sorry if im a n00b but i appreciate the time and effort and help!! Thanks guys!
ok guys if any one else is having this problem i found the solution!! The MOAR rom worked for my phone gave me a cool new look with TONS of custom options and it works with my bluetooth Kenwood headunit to display meta data!! WOO HOO!

I just wanted to share some info here in case anyone else was having this problem. I installed a Kenwood KIV-700 with the KCA-BT300 bluetooth addon. It connected and paired with the phone just fine, however, I noticed that I could not get contacts to sync, tried deleting and reconnecting the phone from head unit several times. Then it occurred to me that it could be my ROM (was using CM6 RC1 at the time). I flashed to AVA-FROYO6, thinking that maybe since it is closer to the stock ROM, that the phonebook would sync. It worked and now I am completely syncing with the unit. To be fair, I have not updated CM beyond RC1, as I was happy with it, so didn't feel the need to update to 2 yet, so maybe this worked in the later version.
My guess is that Kenwood works off of stock ROMS and this could be the reason that CM6 did not work completely with it. Anyway, hope this helps someone.
Cool I've got that BT add on sitting in the garage awaiting my install.
Thanks.

Well back to the drawing board. Eventually I got the same Hf-68 error again with Ava's ROM. Then I went to CM6 (release version this time) with King's first CM6 kernel and it worked for the entire time I ran that (about 3-4 weeks). Then i started having some unrelated issues so I decided to try Virus's new sense ROM based off of 3.28 leak release (RC2) with King CFS7 and low and behold I get the error again every time during the point when it is downloading the phonebook.
I am going to try Virus's senseless when he finishes uploading it and try that. I wonder if it has anything to do with the sense contacts...
So frustrating when you buy an expensive piece of equipment and it works so inconsistently.
I don't often use bluetooth but I don't ever recall having interference issues with WIFI until I got to CM7 and flashed the latest radio.
It's WIFI thats causing the issue, if I turn wifi off while I'm on a call the noise is gone.
Is my headset on the fritz, am I loosing my mind, or is this new with this radio version? Or all of the above.
Sidenote: Anyone know of an app that will automatically disable wifi while I'm on a BT call?
MT3GS, CM 7.0.2, Radio 7.9.35.10
hello good sir ok here it goes your running cm7 stable i see with the latest raido and that is great the problem is not with your phone more than likely could be but are you one of the unfortanate folks that has wifi connectivity issue ??? or does wifi work great for you as it does for me never had issues. the reason i ask is cm7 running the latest radio and latest everything lol is flawless however there is a licencing issue from google with android 2.3 cyanogenmod 7 with the wifi apk file meaning cm mod is using the wifi apk from 2.2 because there is no licence restrictions but for whatever reason on 2.3 they have that wifi apk file under licence for a one year period so that being said that may be the issue. or it could be your phone i have 3 mytouch slides mine wifes daughters and they all running cm7 stable clockworkmod and s-off and i have no issues with any i hope this helps and not just rambling good luck if need any additional info lmk thanks
No, that does make sense..
My wifi is a little whacky, but not nearly as bad as some folks describe. I've actually considered going back to CM6 a few times now.
My fiance has a MT3GS with CM6.11 and the older radio, I need to test my headset with that later.
I have a d2tmo GS3 and been running CM10 nightlys. It is alright but I sometimes have BT trouble between the phone and the car and so I am looking to see if there is another ROM that will work better for me.
I am mainly looking for a relatively vanilla JB ROM. Don't need or care to much about fancy stuff. Its ok if it has extra features as long as they don't cause problems. More than anything else, I want a stable ROM that works correctly.
There are two problems I am having with BT.
The first is that the phone does not always auto connect for music with my car. It used to also have trouble connecting for phone, but a recent nightly build seems to have fixed that.
The second is that when it does connect, it automatically starts playing a random file (it did this with the stock ROM as well). For some reason my Nexus S didn't do this with either ICS or JB vanilla Android. My understanding is that this is cause the phone is getting an autoplay signal from the car. I am hoping there is an Android version that can be set to ignore this request.

I'm actually having the same problem with auto-connect I have a thread going as well. I am running wicked JB which is TW based so close to stok and thats my only problem so far
Just to be clear, when I say "vanilla JB" I mean JB like google intended, not neccesarilty GS3 stock rom.

Does Frosty allow your phone to ignore BT autoplay requests?

Frosty or Wicked. Both have been very stable for me.
Frosty is incredible give it a shot.
Anyone noticing they are having a problem with creating a station on pandora? When ever I do it I get a quick flash to the add station section then nothing happens. No keyboard pops up. Its like I never clicked the create station button. It just goes right back to my station list.
Im on the AT&T GS3. Rooted. Android 4.2.1 CyanogenMod 10.1 Jan 16 build. Stock kernal. I haven't updated because of ongoing bluetooth problems (A2DP).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes i have that problem also and i think a few others too. I had it while running jellybam and have it on rootbox so i'm not sure what the source of the problem is.
I think its due to Pandora not being fully updated to 4.2.1.
This problem doesn't happen with Pandora 4.0. I downgraded, and am having less issues.
Just did it on Pandora v4.1.2. No problems here. Running latest AOKP and KT747.
Hello all, I am new to the GS3 but not the Galaxy line i have had the Captivate Infuse, S2 Skyrocket before this one. I spent a good 95% of the time on Cyanogen Mod on all but the Infuse.
I have a question about Bluetooth and connecting automatically, I know on CM9 and 10 (i cant remember before then) when you turn BT on it automatically connects to what ever device you are paired that is in range. Is there not a way to make that work with the stock 4.1.1 ROM?
There are a few features that the TW 4.1.1 has that i am getting really used to and i really did not want to go to CM just yet. but this one issue might very well me the deal breaker for me.
I am running DLK3 and the only mod other than rooted is the Google wallet unlocker and 23 toggles (also on the 23 toggle it does not pop up with a list of paired devices like it does with the stock toggle, but if it will just connect then i really don't care to see the list)
any help would be awesome, i have done some searching but most of what i found was about audio quality streaming a car stereo.

Well once I got home from work I did a little more searching and found an app that fixes my issue. Not really the way I wanted to fix it but it seems to be working.
