I have an s4 mini and I connected it tonthe bluetooth earpiece and it works fine. Now once I disconnect it from the bluetooth for some reason my phone audio is gone. When I press the volume keys instead of the volume icone showing it keeps on showing the bluetooth. I have checked and the bluetooth is off. Anyone know how to get the audio back without restarting the phone?

Bluetooth and headphones

Hey
My fiesta has bluetooth but I don't think it supports audio so I pay it through the aux. However when I have bluetooth on the phone stops playing through the aux, which means I have too turn bluetooth off for music!
Is there anyway to fix this?
Cheers

Maybe you can try this:
Go in the bluetooth parameters, click 2sec at the name of you're bluetooth audiocar, click options and make sure that only phones is check.
Maybe i'm wrong but the fact that you're phone trying to output music with bluetooth means that you're audiocar is AD2P compliant, maybe just a button to press in oder to switch between audio bluetooth mode and phone bluetooth mode =)
when I clicked media off it disconnects lol. iphone does it too though. very annoying

BT media player in my car

I'm listening to the internet radio on my Note 3. Used it with the mini 3.5 mm cable first, then found the menu in my car media center to hook it up via BT. Got everything connected seems to work fine the sound quality via BT is much better that via the cable.
HOWEVER BT connection between the phone and radio randomly disconnects for no particular reason (I have it set to connect automatically as soon as the ignition is turned on) and every time it connects it starts playing the Samsung tune or whatever music theme even on the top of the radio music.
What could be causing that?
My touchscreen clarion does it to as far as the disconnects go, and music playing through the default Google player vs my player pro.. As for disconnecting, mine just have a issue connecting off hand but best way is make sure the player in the car is turned on with bt enabled and then turn on the phones bt and press play after the connection is made, shouldn't have any disconnects
As for the playing, if it's the same as what mine used to do, I'd free one of the players and keep the main one you use that way nothing plays but what you want.
Hope that helped any..

Yes this is what I do. As soon as as ignition is on BT connects, and the stupid Samsung tune ("over the horizon" according to my car audio system) starts playing in the car by default. I have to go into phone menu and pause that and then start the radio. And then it starts disconnecting the BT so I have to do all those things again (this time while driving)...

Sounds like something with your cars receiver doing like a auto play type deal once connected. The phone wouldnt have a way of playing automatically without being told to.. id check the receiver and see if it has something about auto and changing it to manual, the only thing that should be auto is the pair
I connect my Note 3 to my Kenwood deck daily. Its a bit different scenario but I have no issues with BT streaming at all. It connects automatically and waits for me to switch to Pandora or BT streaming. When connected it stays connected and doesn't skip. I think the phone can be solid with the right receiving device.
The only issue I do have is that the microphone doesn't work when people call me. Works fine if I call them.
I have had zero issues on 2 different Toyota vehicles using the factory audio system with Bluetooth. Phone and media (music) connects. Music only starts playing when I select BT on my stereo. No issues. Probably something with how your car's system is setup.

I doubt that recent LS460 premium audio would be at blame.

I have a question for you guys, up until recently last week I had been using my stock note 3 with my 2013 kia optima bluetooth radio but last week it started only connecting to the phone audio ive tried pairing and repairing but only the phone audio connects no media audio, ive tried going into the settings and checking the media audio box but it will only flash for a little and not connect any idea on what it may be or how I can fix it?

Is there a menu in your car for audio/media/Bluetooth settings? On Toyota, they have a menu for BT Audio devices where you can connect.

I did restart before when it first happened but now it seems like restarting doesn't work

after disconnecting no, but if I want to reconnect I can see it, once disconnected the bluetooth icon is there instead of the volume when using the volume rocker

[Q] Volumes turns down by itself ?

All is in the tittle, only with headset plugged in. It happen when it's in my pocket or in my hand.
I've try an other headset still turning down by itself. . .
Please help.
Either you're volume button is broken and is randomly pressing "volume down" or you're pressing the button yourself without realizing it... (can happen in your pocket but not likely in your hand^^)
So unfortunatly i'd go for the broken button :/
I hope for you i'm wrong tough...
Thanks
But it only happening when the headset are plugged in so I not sure for the broken button
Well if you're not in silent or vibrate mode when the headset aren't plugged in, i'm probably wrong so it's good for you i guess
I can't help you then, sorry :/
Thanks, you take time to reply it's already an help.
i have the same problem. i guess it only happens while receiving a message, so there are some problems with the music app (i use Google music). the music also turns off for 1-2 sec while receiving or writing a message listening to music via Bluetooth. its definitely no hardware issue.

or the volume gesture swipe with 2 fingers is on and you are unknowingly using it.

Nope it's not on
I'm also having this problem, did anyone find a solution?
Possible solution
This may differ from rom to rom, but try unchecking "Safe headset volume" under settings -> Sound -> Advanced.
I'm using the Gummy rom, so your settings might not look the same. Try searching for "Safe headset volume" as this automaticly turns down the volume when a headset / minijack is plugged into the phone Hope this helps!
Using the Bluetooth headset seems to help

[SOLVED] it had nothing to do with the phone (probably), the headphones had controls on them, and they may have been sending false signals to the phone.
My Oppo F5 having the same issue. Its volume automattically goes down , when a notification comes while playing any youtube video or any background music.
Someone please help.

How do I disable Media Volume Drop on BlueTooth Connect

I have a rooted phone (Viper) and when I connect to car bluetooth it drops the media volume from 15 to 7. How do I stop that from happening?
Thanks in advance.

I have a work around. I'm using Tasker and made a rule that on BlueTooth connect it sets the media volume to 15. This is a workaround however and not what I would call a fix.
