So in my line of work, I use bluetooth all day long for 10 hours. I have had the issue of Android not responding when I press the Call button on my LG Tone. It takes more than its fair share of pressing before the phone responds. So I went ahead and applied the Google Now service through the Bluetooth Launch app because I hate S Voice. Still I have the problem. I need a phone that will respond every time I press the Call Button. I end up frustrated because I have the same problem on every phone I use other than an iPhone. I don't want to make the switch unless I have to.
I have noticed that if I turn off the Bluetooth set and turn it back on, it recognizes the first two presses and then its a dice roll all over again. So is there any way of making sure it constantly works when I press the Call Button on the headset or not?
Sucks on the L9, Galaxy Nexus, S3 and S4. I am using the LG Tone headset.

LG Tone sucks on all those phones? Hmmm...sounds like you need to try a different headset.

I agree. I've had cheap headsets and expensive ones. There really is a difference (sometimes) so I would definitely try another headset.

Hey guys, so I am using my headset to activate Samsung Voice Talk by holding my BT button for 2 sec which works great! The problem is that when I have a missed call, Samsung Voice Talk will keep notifying me even though I've already cleared notification and even viewed the call log! WTF! I have to actually delete missed call so clear the notification! Any advice???
Stop using voice talk

What do I use then? I can't set default to Google Voice Search
I want to say that the bluetooth quality is terrible. I'm using the brand new jabra sports too.

Do you think it is specific to your device (jabra sport) or a problem with the phone. Is it bad enough to change your opinion/review of the epic touch ?

I don't have any problems with hearing people / them hearing me. I use BT530 by Jabra. I'd try Plantronics Savor M1100 before complaining about bluetooth.

I'm going to be doing a lot of testing with these Jabra Sports. I'm actually reviewing them because they were just announced. But I was listening to Pandora on my E4T with WiFi on, and the quality was terrible. I'm going to test them with other devices just to ensure if it is the E4T or the Sports.
I am having the same annoying issue with Samsung Galaxy SII ATT, so it looks like a software glitch...makes using voice dialing etc... ridiculous......I have to delete the missed call from the log to get it to stop announcing it.
lol, after a while you just get used to it. Waiting for fix... patiently...NOT!!!
Same problem.. help?
The exact search term is " Volume+ (Sound Boost) " in the android market . You can copy & paste that into the android market search field minus the quotation marks. The free version doesn't have sound boost in it's title and the volume level won't go up high enough. In preferences in the app, you need to be able to select somewhere between 8-10. Too low, nothing and too high doesn't work either.
Very important, when you download the app for the first time, there is quick one time visual tutorial. Do everything exactly what it says to do, if not, won't work. If you can take screen shots of the directions, your better off. After that one time, you would have to un—install and than re—install to see it again. It only comes up right after the initial install.
The only variance is your volume number in the preferences . Test, if it's working, by listening to the preset ring tones in the system settings of the phone.
I was afraid, that I might of had to exchange the phone because the speaker volume was so bad. This app makes a significant difference.

You can get the full version for free from the developers site which has a link in the Market page of the lite version.
I keep mine set on 10 and it gives me the perfect volume.
It's the way the phone should have come.....
I am surprised samsung or google have not rectified this with the last 2 ota updates.

10 makes a difference but isn't there a chance of blowing the speaker by doing this or are we safe?

10 was REALLY loud with my text tones with vol on max. Im at 8 now and the speaker sounds loud but not poppy or distorted. Im going to try the earpiece vol next
Help!
By any chance do you remember the steps? I just bought the app but accidently pressed the back button on the tutorial part. Is there anyway to go back to it?

yeah the voice is still like that in 4.0.2 (usa/lte); almost feel guilty about using navigation, sounds like the poor woman is getting tortured; I run it through my car speakers so it's loud of enough
thanks guys it helps alot

FYI there is an updated version at developers site 1.8.0.6 that adds ability to view the tutorial on demand.
I bought V+ and it helped with some of the settings, but not all. I rooted the phone as well. I might be returning it. It is a big disappointment.
Has anyone tried this with a bluetooth headset? I tried and am not getting any results. Tried "Headset" and tried "Bluetooth" settings, separately and together.

Do you do that natively with a bluetooth head unit. I have a car with bluetooth head unit and when I make a call and I'm using Nav at the same time it plays the Nav through the speakers....otherwise it doesn't.
Wondering if I can do likewise so any information would be greatly received.
Thanks
Hi. I want to know how to get the iphone 5 headset to work on my galaxy s3? I'm aware the volume control will never work but assumed everything else does. Some have said they have managed to get it working on their galaxy s3 either through specific software or ROM changes?
Right now I can make calls to other with the headset working perfectly, but when I receive calls from others I cannot hear them nor can they hear me. So the problem only occurs when I RECEIVE calls. The mic is really important to me.
Any help would be really appreciated.
OK. I've narrowed down the problem. The headset stops working when I press the middle button to receive calls. In other words, if I answer a call using the actual phone, the headset works fine. If I do press the middle button to receive a call, I can no longer hear the other person nor can they hear me through the headset.
Does anyone use the iphone 5 headset with the galaxy s3? Does the headset work for you?

The workaround I'm using now is to have auto-answering enabled while a headset is connected. Now i'm trying to find away to reject calls with a single click but after trying various apps I've not been able to do so.

How to set the auto-answer when using the headset ?

Having an issue where when using my BT earpeice, after about 5 mins the audio gets distorted and I can barely hear them, and they can't hear me. Now if I press the headset button on the dail screen to go back to the phones speaker and the press again to go back to the earpeice, it works fine again, for another 5 mins.
I'm all stock on the latest update. This happens on my att and verizon s3. Using a blue ant q3 earpeice which I've replaced already think it was the issue.
Any suggestions?

I keep having phone calls where I can't hear the other person and vice versa. Seems to be related to my Bluetooth connection to a Gear S3 as disabling Bluetooth usually fixes it (but then sometimes it randomly sides itself with Bluetooth on and I haven't done detailed testing).
I'm on Fi, but have been for awhile and never had this problem with my previous phone... I am using the software sim.
Anyone else experiencing similar, or know anything about it?

Make sure under the phone app that the hearing aid accessibility option is off

It's off. I should add, there's not even the sound of the ring, just dead silence and the timer starts, then eventually a disconnect. That's making me think the audio is being sent somewhere besides the speaker (even though the icon says speaker).

I get that to from time to time. It's as if the audio is routed to my watch but nothing actually comes out of the watch.

If your not connected to anything (Bluetooth) and the volumes are maxed out and you have nothing, it's RMA time. Have you tried the good ol' factory reset? Last resort

Interesting thought, though it definitely feels like software to me so I'm not rma'ing just yet.

I legit have the EXACT same issues. I also have a Gear S3. It only happens the first time I call, and then, if I hang up and call the number right back, it's a normal phone call. Have you figured out a fix yet? It's really a nuisance. Thanks in advance!

Seems better after the last two Tizen updates, but honestly I don't make enough phone calls to be certain.
Go to Bluetooth setting and choose ur watch setting and disable phone calls should fix it,i have huawe watch 2 and same problem.
