[Q] Can't Play Audio Through HTC a100 Car

Anyone else have issues with the HTC Car StereoClip also known as HTC a100 Car?
I turn it one, pair and connect, set car to auxillary, open music app and get nothing. But other Bluetooth devices work just fine.
Any help or ideas is greatly appreciated!

Looks like there are not many of those...is it really that good? Worth to buy? And for how much did you bought yours? And where you got yours from?
Sorry to answer your question with offtopic questions.
I believe I read somewhere that this works with the note2 with no problems

For what it's worth, I have the HTC car dongle and the note 2 and they work together perfectly.

What the hell am I doing wrong?
Sorry to be such a noob but what are you doing, how do you connect? Are you rooted? With what ROM?

I am using a stock, unrooted Note 2. Just make sure that you follow the directions of the HTC device and connect. I also use an app from the playstore called A2DP volume. My phone and car bluetooth automatically connect when I get in the car and then I have set up this app to automatically connect to the HTC whenever my car and phone connect. I hope that this makes sense.

This makes no sense. I have tested with multiple stereos (my car and a stereo boombox) and multiple ROMs. Nothing works. I can pair to the A100, the SGN2 detects and connects properly (from what I can tell) but no music from it. When I use the standard cable, the headphone icon appears and music plays just fine. With just the A100 I get not headphone icon and no music playing.
I even went to completely stock ROM with no changes and nothing done to it but my Google account entered.
Strange because I tested the device with my previous HTC phone and it worked flawlessly. Any other thoughts? This makes no sense!!

Sorry, have you tried to reset the HTC dongle?

Do you know how? Do I need to plug it into the computer?
Sorry to sound newb, but I read the directions and didn't see anything about resetting it.

Try to press and hold ON/OFF button more then 10 seconds. Then A100 will "reset" blink red and turn off.

Jelly Bean 4.1.2 is the main issue

I think the main problem of the streaming audio bluetooth failure is... jelly bean 4.1.2 . hope in future upgrade to 4.2.2 fix all problems
I tried to with 2 different devices:
1) Tablt Asus Transformer Prime TF201 jelly bean 4.1.1 streaming is great :cyclops:
2) Samsung galaxy S II/III jelly bean 4.1.2 no audio output :crying:
Evdidence of this will be when people upgrade their Htc One (other device that have been issues with a100) to Jelly bean 4.2.2
however compliments HTC customer service .....poor...poor....

Hi,
Jelly Bean 4.2.2. does not fixed the problem
I use a HTC One, and I´m really angry about this ****.
Any recomendations maybe?

This problem was found on the xperia ion:
Cause: Overheating of phone
Effect (according to a users findings): the glue was loosened and something was obstructing the sound piece.
Cause: the use of xLoud (a setting in the sound settings) that sends more "power" to the certain piece of hardware (in this case the listening piece)
so maybe if you go to a sony (tech) store...they can fix it

Ok, so its hardware problem then..damn...
Thnx for quick reply!

Have you had headphones plugged in? If so, it thinks they are still plugged in. Plug em back in and out until it sorts itself

You can even see in the connected devices manager thing what ever the app is called. It'll show em still connected. A few people have had the same issue including me!

crackling noise on Headset and speakers

so recently my samsung galaxy s3 has been making a cracking noice, at first i thought it was the headset i had so i just switched those out, but it didn't fix the problem.
My phone is rooted and im running a custom ROM
is there solution to fix this?

If it's not your head phones it could be the head phones Jack
Google for a way to clean it
Also you could have messed up using a mod like bats audio app or volume plus

Are you using Bluetooth or what kind of headset? And what ROM are you on?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2

the tom i am currently using is JellyBomb ver. 13.0.0 [LJ7], also im not using Bluetooth im just using some Skull Kandy headset and Beats Audio Head set and they both have this cracking noise, yet when i use my other Samsung Galaxy S3 it doesn't make the cracking noise, so i have no clue if my current S3 is just creating this noise for no reason.

Are you using volume+? That app has caused me audio problems in the past. I would check DSP levels too, make sure you don't have anything jacked up to high.
Also, are you using any other sound processors like Beats audio? I really feel that your culprit lies somewhere in the sound processing and/or settings. And from my personal experience I recommend staying away from things like Beats and V+.

I wipe and clear everything then re flash my phone but I keep getting this noise.

Audio delays when using Bluetooth headphone

Does anyone find this problem? I just bought an Creative's Bluetooth headphone exclusively to watch movie or play video games. After experiencing nearly 2 hours, I found audio always lay 1 second. It really annoy me when I am playing video games. You can think of that you are watching bomb blowing up without explosive sounds. I tried iOS, everything is okay. You can't find any audio delays whatever you play games or watch movies. I searched this problem on the internet and found out people who bought Asus transformer pad experience the same problem. They said ICS and KNow have the same problem. Does it mean this is a Android OS's problem? Could it be fixed by custom rom? I absolutely don't like buying a Bluetooth headphone($50:banghead exclusively to pick up phone call. By the way，I am now using Android HD Rom.

I've been using BT headphones with Android devices for years, and whilst I've seen this before it has usually been on older devices and related to the video app itself losing sync, rather than Bluetooth per se.
I've had no such problems with my Note 2, using a wide variety of different bluetooth headsets, and I watch a lot of video on my device. My Note 2 is still bone stock, so I suggest trying a different ROM first of all to see if it makes any difference.
Regards,
Dave

I get a bit of Bluetooth lag when watching movies with my Creative headset. I use BSPlayer and that has an option to offset the audio of videos, so the problem goes away. Not ideal, but it works very well.

I've always had a delay with Bluetooth in games, regardless of which device I'm using. (pc, psp, vita, LG O2x, Note 2)

I have always experienced a little lag when calling with BT headset.
Tried SonyEricsson headsets, and for now I'm on a Jawbone Icon.
On all phones I have tested, there's this nagging delay in sounds.
When it comes to games, music and such, I have no idea
since I very rarely indulge in that kind of activities...

Which Bluetooth headphone you're using now?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

currently I'm using a Jabra Halo 2, a Jabra street, and a Jabra Clipper.
I also own a Nokia BH-503(might be knock-off, seems good but price was low and the place I got it from has a lot of knock-off products)
and I used to own a Samsung neckband headset(don't know the exact model) and an original Jabra Halo.
all of them had a delay with games on every device I used them with.
to my knowledge the only reason this doesn't happen with movies is because media players can put the sound out of sync by just the right amount to counter this delay.

Gonna test my Sony mw600 when I get home. I don't recall having this problem.

Did you try iOS device? My Bluetooth headphone works great with my iPad. You can't feel any lag when you are playing game or watching movie. So I think it might be bug of Android. By the way , how is Jabra halo 2? Does it sound better than other Bluetooth headphone that you've experienced. I used to like it due to its fancy looks but I end up not picking it because I found some complaints that Bluetooth connection might be stoped sometimes and recover in 1 second. I eventually picked Creative wp-250.

I was using Perseus, now trying Adam. I still get the lag on both kernels, but it doesn't matter when playing videos, as the player can offset the audio, negating the audio lag

I have the same problem with my jabra. Even typing sound is delayed. I don't remember having this problem with my previous phone (motorola atrix). At the moment I have Phoenix v11 installed with custom kernel...

Yeah ，I tried mxplayer and get no lags but game and YouTube not. I am frustrated by this....if I knew this problem, I wouldn't buy a new Bluetooth headphone.....:banghead:
By the way do you feel any difference between Perseus and Adam according to your experience? It is said Perseus is the best custom kernel for note 2......

[Q] 4.3 and BT: did it fix the "skipping" sound?

Has anyone tried 4.3 and played music over BT?
Especially I'd like to hear from these who experienced sound skipping issues on stock 4.1.2 (when sound stops for 1/10 - 1 second, sometimes ones an hour sometimes few times a minute especially if phone wasn't rebooted for a very long time)
I just hope it's something software related and not hardware. S3 for example has same issues, and some say it's even worse, S4 doesn't seem to have it at all.

The skipping sound used to happen to me on 4.1.2 (on 4.1.1 i ddnt experiemce issues) Now on 4.3, i havent expirienced the skipping issues yet.. but wht do u mean over BT?
GIVE A THANKS button if i helped
