Is the Bluetooth device compatible? S4's are Bluetooth 4.0 and I don't think they are backwards compatible.

Incorrect. Bluetooth is backwards compatible.
Wunderle, you'll need to post a lot more info than that if you want help troubleshooting. E.g., what kind device(s) are you trying to connect, do they connect to other Bluetooth devices, what steps have you tried, what errors are you getting...

I have simalar problem I have tmobile s4 stock rooted 4.2.2 bluetooth connects to some devices like aluratek istream, 2007 toyota handfree,
will not connect to 2013-2014 acura handfree systems will not connect to magellan roadmate 9250t-lmb which is a 2013 product. s4 can see item for pairing but when access code pops up to connect it immediately fails and reprompts to try again meaning when code entered on s4 it resets back to bluetooth pair list. is there a way to patch other bluetooth files or change. tested with s2 and it connects to everything.
bumpin
there compatibility list has the most obsolete phones, s2 was the latest who the hell uses a blackberry, this is a 2013 product s3 ,s4,s5 no worky i called support the said there "working on it" Idk if its possible to create a patch to change or add a bluetooth frequency or maybe on the samsung side maybe in a couple years it will connect and Ill have the s7

Hi
Guys I have a 2011 C Class with the Comand system in it. It has internet access which you use using the WAP on your phone once it is connected via Bluetooth to the Comand system. It worked fine with my Galaxy S but now that I have the GN it wont access. Does anyone know why or does anyone know how to fix this.
Are you sure it uses wap and not Bluetooth? Even if you're right and it does use wap, it may be worth checking if there's an option to use Bluetooth and to see if that works. With Bluetooth you'd of course need to pair the car's bt with your phone's.

Hi thanks for your reply according to manual these are the conditions that are necessary for connection.
"the mobile phone supports DUN Bluetooth profile(Dial-Up Networking)and is connected to COMAND via the Bluetooth interface. The DUN Bluetooth enables the mobile phone to establish a dial-up connection to the Internet"
As I said my Galaxy S connected to it fine and enabled the internet connection on the COMAND system.
The only thing I can suggest is that you ensure that your phone's Bluetooth is paired with your car's. If you've already confirmed that it is then then the only other thing that comes to mind is to perhaps try using your phone as mobile hotspot over Bluetooth.
Did you set it up yourself with your other phone or was it set up for you when you bought the car?

Lauk75, I'm sorry but neither of your posts made technological sense. WAP is a protocol by which mobile devices access the internet. Bluetooth is a radio device allowing 2 devices to exchange information, ie audio via a headset or a card between 2 phones.
Onto the problem. Is the comand unit trying to use the SAP protocol? I know androids support of this is fairly limited? Are there any other settings in the head unit you can change? If you tell me if its comand 50,20,10 etc I'll look at the manual for you.

Ah, I wrongly assumed that the problem was with trying to play music from the phone. I see now that it is all about accessing the Internet. My mistake.
Having said that, there is a Bluetooth tethering option on the galaxy nexus, the description of which suggests it is for sharing the phone's Internet connection in a similar way as you would do in normal tethering. That was my second suggestion in my second post above . Perhaps it is worth a try, perhaps not.

thanks for your reply. All I can say about the comand system is that its called COMAND ONLINE. No model number. Its a brand new system that's in the new C Class. As I said my Galaxy S connects the internet to it no prob. It must be to do with ICS maybe. Tried the Bluetooth Tethering mentioned by LAUK 75 (thanks for your reply) but still no luck.
Then I would gather that its an issue with the Bluetooth stack on ics. If your rooted u may want to try a 4.0.3 rom and see if that fixes the issue. Other than that I think ur out of luck. I've not looked but are there any Bluetooth apps in the market, as they may use their own stack/ driver for Bluetooth. (Worth a shot)

On looking, there are two apps in the market which add Bluetooth PAN functions. They may be worth a shot. Search for Bluetooth pan in the market.

Also try an app called PDAnet, which enables Bluetooth DUN profile.

Guys thanks. Tried PDANET but it doesnt load on ICS. Tried Nook Colour tether doesnt work either.
Guys
Can anyone, please have a look at this Thread again. I have still noit been able to use the internet on my mercedes when my Galaxy Nexus is connected to it. I think it's something to do with the Bluetooth settings within ICS.
According to manual these are the conditions that are necessary for connection.
"the mobile phone supports DUN Bluetooth profile(Dial-Up Networking)and is connected to COMAND via the Bluetooth interface. The DUN Bluetooth enables the mobile phone to establish a dial-up connection to the Internet"
PDANet for Android seems to be working fine. Make sure you have GPU acceleration turned off in developer settings. In order to access Bluetooth DUN Mode you need to install FoxFi

Hi anton2009, thanks for your response. When I use PDAnet 3.50 and select Bluetooth DUN mode it takes me to Foxfi I then select Activate Bluetooth DUN and it says fail to Activate. Internet not detected.
Hmm... well I thought you would be able to do it without having the PC PDANet component, but apparently you do...? So this would make this quite useless... I guess the only thingI can think of would be the bluetooth tethering option in Wireless Networks, but you already stated that does not work. Sorry.
Guys eventually solved this. An App called Blue Dun available through Google Play has fixed this problem. See line 101

I have just spoken with the developer of the app and their is an updated version coming out this week, the new version will be compatible also for Toyota Touch&Go navi, Tom Tom nav. , Clever GPS and BB Playbook.
Hello people i have a motorola rz100 smart controller use it before on my old motorola xoom as a bluetooth mouse and headset now when i try to connect it to my note 2 it will connect as a bluetooth headset i search a little but didnt find anything related to this i read the manual they say its compatible with all android devices with HID Bluetooth support
I try to connec it to my note 10.1 but the same problem
Thanks for helping

I just bought the same RZ100 from woot I think and it won't function on my Nexus 4. The phone only sees the HID part but not the headset portion but even then the HID part doesn't work. I'm guessing it's some kind of driver issue. I happen to have a Motorola android phone at work and it connects to that phone perfectly. Is there any way of getting the drivers for it from an Motorola phones ROM? I
RZ100 works straight away on samsung s5 but doesnt work at all on Asus zenpad 7... bad luck I bought it for the zenpad bad luck
I have a brand new 2015 Hyundai Sonata, and my girlfriends Galaxy S5 can send metadata and track info to my stereo no problem (using google play music). My new Galaxy Note 4. refuses to send the track info... I've tried using the AutoAudio app which will allegedly fix the problem, but that didn't help. I also tried using Poweramp and the stock music player as well, hoping that something would work, and nothing does. However, my dash unit and steering wheel can CONTROL the phone, just not display what it's doing.. So it appear AVRCP is working but not bluetooth metadata.
It's such a minor thing, but it's driving me nuts. Any ideas?
Bump -- I also noticed the sound quality over bluetooth (for the same files) is way worse with my Note 4.
I get the same problem on my 2012 Mazda 3. My understanding is it's a problem with Bluetooth 4.1 compatibility. It makes no sense as it is supposed to be backwards compatible, but it's pretty regularly reported that many car stereos aren't fully compatible with the latest Bluetooth spec and this is the result. Bothers me too. If anyone is able to get it working, please share. I'm certainly interested in a solution.

So Hyundai themselves actually called me and said that my headunit is running some really old Bluetooth stack... So old that the new version of bluetooth isn't that far backwards compatible.. It will play audio, but at a lower quality and without metadata.. They said the headunit software manufacturer (MNSoft) might have a firmware update, but they generally only do those for nav systems.

I googled MNSoft and what showed up for me was the mapping software that Hyundai uses. Would that really have to do with Bluetooth and metadata? I have a 2013 elantra with nav. I get no metadata on my screen either. Sound quality is great though since mine does come with the upgraded sound system.

2011 mazdaspeed with nav here. Same results. Haven't called for update
Last I heard from Mazda, they can't (or won't) update the software. They consider it done. I find that aggravating as cars should last longer than phones and the radio isn't easy to change out

For some reason when I BT connect my tablet to ANY pioneer head unit (tried 3 so far) I don't get the check box in bluetooth options for "phone audio" . I am using the Verizon messages+ app to make calls and receive texts over wifi Hotspot from my phone. This works amazingly but for some reason I can't get it to route through to the pioneer bluetooth connection. I tried a set of bluetooth headphones and the phone audio checkbox is there and it works flawlessly.
I did some Google searching and searched this sub but don't see anything relating to this problem.
edit: see below for update
Is there a way to force a bluetooth profile to use "phone audio"? Is there a Config file anywhere I can manually edit?
I've tried Bluetooth Auto Connect and choosing the phone audio option for the head unit but it did not change anything.
I assume your nexus is lte ?

Sorry should have put that info in the initial post. No, it is the WiFi model.
I would be wifi tethering my phone to get network connectivity. This is a Nexus 7 carputer type build.
Bit of an update though:
Per a website that I cant post a link to until i make 10 posts.... It looks like the nexus 7 2013 lacks the HFP (Hands Free Profile) by default. Now I'm not entirely sure why the bluetooth headset works if this profile is not present other than its possible the headset uses the HSP (Head Set Profile) but I can't seem to find any documentation on if the N7 actually has the HSP.
Through extensive googling, I ended up at posts talking about Bluez bluetooth stack implementation. This is a bit over my head though and cant really find any solid documentation on implementing it on Stock 6.0.1
I also ended up getting directed to the source.android page that mentions at the bottom:
Custom Bluetooth profiles - If you want to add Bluetooth profiles that do not have HAL interfaces provided by Android, you must supply an SDK add-on download to make the profile available to app developers, make the APIs available in the Bluetooth system process app (packages/apps/Bluetooth), and add them to the default stack (system/bt).

But like I said, this is over my head.
Anyone with any sort of experience give me some insight?
So, Bluetooth works well with all alter devices but does not recognise my car Bluetooth. I have not had any issues so far testing from all possible android phones to Nokia and iPhone. I have a 2010 C class. Any suggestions? The car says that no devices has been found when trying to pair. Thanks
Same exact problem here with an Audi A1. I contacted support, but they only suggested things I had already tried (like factory reset etc). I'm going to try and get a log to them at some point this week.
Are you on the latest OTA? That's when the problems started happening for me - it was working fine before that.

Yes, latest update. Unfortunately support gave me "support" I have already tried and if you have a bit of knowledge of android you do not need some to tell you those things. We just have to wait until next update. Thanks
Have you tried turning off HD audio in the device settings?
When the device is connected, go to Bluetooth and select the cog next to the device. Uncheck HD audio.
This worked for me with my JVC Bluetooth car stereo.
