Hey all,
So Im running Dirty unicorn 4.4.2 and I got a Bluetooth headset for my motorcycle helmet. Initially when I pressed the voice call button on the BT voice dialer popped up. I wanted Google now insead so I disabled the voice dialer and than it allowed me to select google now. Well here is the issue, I can say "Ok google" and it hears it and begins listening but after that it does not hear anything I say. I have selected to use Bluetooth in G Now settings and have even tried to enable the screen tap sound checkmark (which I head had issues being off) with no luck.
Does anyone have any idea what is causing this? One weird note is while G Now is listening the volume indicator does some weird jumps but it does it when I am not saying anything.
Thanks in advance.
Anyone have any idea? I have a local build of Dirty Unicorns up and running on my computer so I can modify source and kernel but have not found anything that would relate to this problem.

Hi All,
Just the other day my speaker phone stopped working. I can hear the people I am calling, but the microphone doesn't seem to work. They cant' hear me. Not at all, it is like I have the phone muted-- but it is not.
Any body else with this? Any ideas, besides hard reset to try?
Thanks

There are loads of software apps that could interfere with sound, have you installed anything recently that you can remember?
have you applied any "tweaks" that you can remember.
Does it only happen when on speaker-phone or during normal calls.
It may be worth removing the back cover to make sure that nothing has interfered with the Mic Mute button on the rear of the device.
Give us some more info an I'll try to help further.
Cheers,

Hi Beast0898
Here is a list of software that I have installed in the last 2 weeks:
CarlosP ToneManager
cRaCKwHoRe's Snooze options
merlot mToolbox
Shubaroo Contact Fix
tarkim Keyboard controller.
I had not used the speaker phone for a while. Not since I installed any of the above, so if it is a software interference, it could be any of the above. Ideas?
The mute button is not blocked. And it happens when I enter speaker phone by turning it upside down, and when enabling it with the button on the dialer.
Any ideas?
Did you get it to work? I've encountered a weird problem recently myself where suddenly all system sounds seem to stop, including dialing tones etc.. but if I let the phone go into speaker phone mode, that does work. I hang up the call and suddenly sounds are back.
It seems to only happen when I use Groovefish and/or Nitrogen, so I wonder if one of those is causing some weirdness, just haven't pinned it down yet.
if this is the same bug I had on mine, you can either toggle the speaker phone button twice or do this:-
There is an easy workaround for this problem. On your Touch Pro 2 go to the home screen. Slide to the "Settings" tab. Tap the "Menu" softkey and choose "All Settings". Tap "Personal" then "Phone". Open the "Advanced" tab and change "Reduce noise in phone calls" to "Never".

Hi everyone, please help me with an issue. When I drive, my phone is connected to my bluetooth receiver. Problem is, when that happens, Android voice recognition does not seem to work. I would occasionally like to be able to dictate a text message, however the microphone seems to be disabled when I tap the mic button on the keyboard. This happens no matter what bluetooth headset I have connected. However, S Voice seems to turn the mic on, for voice recognition. So, is there any way for me to fix this and use Android's native voice recognition? I am running a stock rooted ROM and stock kernel. I appreciate all your suggestions.
Hi Guys
I have just purchased a Motorcycle Sena SMH10 with boom mic and whilst i've got it working fine as an MP3 player, it doesn't seem to recognise any voice requests. If I press the little phone button, the screen on my S3 switches over to google voice but doesn't register any commands. When the phone is asleep (and pin locked), I also get the same. I press the button and after a short while I'll hear a beep and the phone will tell me something like it didn't recognise/hear anything.
The phone is running 4.2.1 and the SMH was upgraded to the latest firmware.
Also, in the phones bluetooth settings I can only see two entries for the Sena, "Phone Audio" and "Media Audio", should I be seeing "Microphone input" or something like that?
Thanks guys!!!
I'm currently using an LG G3 Vs985 on Sky Dragon 5.0
I'm also using T-mobile on the LG G3
I use my phone for work a lot and the most annoying thing is happening. While I am using my bluetooth headset and talking on a call, if somebody tries to call me and my screen is telling to either accept or deny the incoming call, my bluetooth speaker drops to handset volume. I have to deny the incoming call, then quickly tap to turn off bluetooth and bluetooth again to get the call back to my bluetooth.
While already on a a call if somebody is talking to me while an incoming call comes in, I miss an entire sentance or two before i can do all of the above to get the audio back to bluetooth.
Is this a wrong setting I have on the phone or simply a bug with either Lollipop or Skydraggon?
"Edit" I got so annoyed I went to my wired headphones and I noticed the issue is not happening on my headphones. I didn't expect to happen but i wanted to note that the audio does not drop to handset speaker while using wired headset.
I appreciate the help.
I wanted to update the post that either it was a phone reboot or possibly of me flashing the Skydragon 4.2 kernal to the phone that fixed the issue. So far as of right now the audio is not dropping when talking or listening on an active call with another incoming call requesting to be accepted or denied.
Edit: The issue has returned. This is goofy !! lol
We finally have our watches updated with the long waited 1.4 internal speaker enable firmware.
I was so excited to side-load the update to my watch and seeing the new features activated, but with more usage to the watch/phone (note5) I started getting frustrated.
Phone calls cannot be received (heard or voice out) from phone if bluetooth (Play phone audio on watch) is selected. (unlike my previous iWatch)
2nd flaw is the strange behaviour using Facebook messenger calling when audio is diverted to watch, but this time the calls fail.
I thought i would see if its only me facing this, is it the combination of my phone/ watch misfit? or its the update?
I have already factory reset my watch, to no avail.
Please share your experiences guys.
For me this works super cool, no problem. Speaker is very loud and clear. I use it 50% volume at home, whitch is enough.

When you accept phone call on a phone voice is automatically directed through phone's earpiece. When you accept it on the watch, voice goes through the watch.
You can also switch voice direction during call using button having BT icon within in-call screen. This is how it works for me on Nexus 5x and I find it quite consistent.

Unfortunately answering the call from the screen doesn't activate the ear speaker in my case, but I can activate the loud speaker!

Answering the call from the watch screen will answer on the watch. To me that is as expected. If you want to answer it on the phone use the phone to answer instead of watch.

I guess it's dependent on a device type, Android version it is running and most importantly a dialer app that it is running.
I can imagine devices having custom dialer supplied by a vendor that significantly differs from the standard Android one could yield different results.
Anybody else encountered FB messenger crash?
I'm facing very serious problems while trying to use HWatch to make/answer calls.
1. Without activating "Play phone audio on watch" everything works as before (no way to answer the call without pulling the phone). Somehow expected behaviour.
2. When I activate "Play phone audio on watch", I can answer the call on watch and apparently it thinks the call is going normally. Byt nothing can be heard on either side of the call. On phone the in-call UI is also displayed and no sounds played or recorded.
3. What's even worse, when I conventionally answer the call on my phone, it's somehow answered also on watch, with result being similar to 2 - no voice whatsover on either device - for about 10 seconds. After that the call is hung up on watch and starts to be hearable on phone. This is very annoying.
I admit, I have an old Samsung Galaxy SII running SlimKat 4.4.4 (which should include standard AOSP dialer). Maybe it has an old version of Blutooth or something screwed elsewhere. But for me the new 1.4 functions are now plain unusable.
Edit: Point 3 somehow fixed (or demonstrates randomly). But still: no audio stream between phone and watch.
