Can anyone recommend a ROM where the in-call audio through Bluetooth connection is clear like it was before they rooted their HTC1? I really love my current ROM, and really most of the ROMs I've been using for the last year or so, but my customers are always complaining that they can't hear me or that I'm garbled and breaking up. I spend 80% of my work time in the car and need a better solution.
I don't care if it's Sense based or GPE or what.
Most sense or gpe roms available for this device, Bluetooth works just fine.
The part you need to be sure you did, was to update your firmware.
Using old firmware is the number one reason for in call audio issues, whether speaker or Bluetooth.
I can say with certainty, that it works on all my sense and gpe roms.

Trying to find some feedback from anyone using the BlueAnt V1 bluetooth headset with the EVO.
I'm having problems with the headset not answering calls maybe 85-90% of the time. It announces there is a call, but will not answer via voice command or hitting the button. I can answer via the phone but when I do it doesn't transfer voice to the headset. The headset thinks it is connected because when the call is ended it tells me.
Have done two factory resets on the phone and resets on the headset with no change. Also spoken to Blueant tech support and they weren't much help. All they said is they haven't heard of it having problems with the EVO and should be compatible with all Android devices. Their suggestion was to try it with another EVO and see if the problem still exists. Well, I don't have another to test it on so that does me no good. This headset worked great on both my Blackberry phones before I got the EVO and has the latest updates installed.
BTW...I'm running Myn's RLS4 w/ #17.
Thanks.
Well I don't think it is the Bluetooth , it is the Rom. I have problems with myns #4 with the sync in my email. I have a blue ant also and it does the same thing . I have tried other roms including virus and it works on them , try that .

Pretty sure I tried this headset when the phone was stock and with some other Sense and non-Sense roms. It has never worked properly.
Not sure if it has something to do with the lockscreen or not. The first time it is connected to the phone it works fine. But every time after that, it doesn't connect the call.
I haven't had any problems running anything on Myn's. But just to make sure, when I switch a rom again I will reset and try the headset.
yeah mine does the same thing, it works if i answer w/ voice command but if i press answer button most of the time the audio is route to phone speaker......Lame!
has anybody with a blueant tried it with cyanogenmod? i wonder if the different bluetooth stack yields different results. I'd like to see an app update for the blueant software too (had a cheaper headset that stayed connected way better)
When I pair the headset, it connects and works great the first call I get whether using voice command or button to answer. Then every time after that, it won't connect the call.
Maybe it has something to do with the lockscreen or the phone going to sleep. I will have to do some trial and error.
Currently I am trying out the headset with MikFroyo 4.2 (Sense rom) to see if it makes any difference. This rom is really close to stock so maybe it will work?
I will post back with my conclusion.
My headset works fine now. I have found there is a coding issue that exists in certain roms such as Myn's and CM that prevent proper operation. CM seems to have put together a fix for it. Myn's still does not work at this time. It has been requested as a fix for RLS5 final.
Running eVoKINGS Black Titanium with Mik's 4.2 base and my headset works good.
hey where is the fix for CM or is it just in some of the versions? cause i just flashed CM7 and some of the features i loved about the Blue Ant before are not working like it will not play my audio like it did before i use to be able to listen to my music and what not through the blue tooth. if there is a fix for it i would love to get that working again.

Sorry...it's been a while and can't remember where I read about the fix. If I run across again will let you know. Might try downloading "BT mono" from the Market to see if that helps. Not sure if it is effective on AOSP or not but worth a look.
I came upon a dealbreaker issue with bluetooth. I haven't used bluetooth since long before i rooted my desire and have had this issue since last week when i started using bluetooth again.
My headsets are two Sony Ericsson MW600 and the issue is with cm7.2 based ROMs.
I have tried with Mildwild 5.0 and Cronmod 1.05.
The issue consists of sound not being transferred to and from headset at incoming call. Ringtone plays when call comes in and phone button works on headset. Otherwise media plays satisfyingly but not flawless.
A forum search revealed one previous post with same phone, same issue, cm7.2 base and different headset. No answers to that thread, though.
I'd like to collect some experiences on the matter, to present devs with.
Thanks
Problem solved. Bt in conflict with call recording app. Changed to skvalex's call recording app and all good.
I have a similar issue with MIUI rom. how can i change / disable the recording application?
Try uninstalling or freezing it. Then make a call.
As far as i can see, there is no way to remove the recording option.
The recording is disabled (not recording) by default, and i never enabled it.
I did all my checks on clean install.
Try to find a suspicious service and stop it. Any weird thing might be what's interfering with your bt. Try altering every setting that has anything to do with calls. T n' E
I was unable to find some service responsible.
Buy chance, a friend of mine came with the same phone and asked me to root in and install the same rom i have.
in his case the headset worked with original rom and with the rom i use.
the only difference i noticed was different Radio version.
His is 5.10.05.30
and mine is 5.17.05.23
I also think that his device use OLED display and mine SLCD
So, of course you secretly switched phones with him?
Unfortunately no. So the problem is still there.
Hi
Has anybody noticed degraded audio quality with any of the lollipop roms?
I have a Bluetooth car stereo with a subwoofer and on KitKat (ARHD) it sounded sweet but seems to sound awful on Lollipop.
I've tried ARHD and I'm not on Leedroid and the H/K audio mod has helped but it still sounds poor.
Thanks.
Yes, I noticed. Completely stock though, unrooted and all. Haven't tried blootooth yet, but sinply calling from my office is way worse - it takes longer to connect, quality is poor, disconnecys often. Lollipop is bad any way I look at it.
Hey uniflex_
I'm hoping this gets sorted, I wish I hadn't upgraded now.
Can I go back to KitKat? I'm wondering as I've flashed the updated FW.
Thanks
The way I understand it (and I'm sure there are many more experienced people here who can correct me), one has to root the phone, gain S-off, find the RUU on this forum (or elsewhere), and use it to install KitKat. I'm not sure this will bring the phone back to how it was before the update, so for now I'm trying to work with the seller - I bought the phone less that 6 month ago, which means I can simply exchange it. The question is, whether they have any of the KitKat phones left.
Hi
I'm sure the audio issues are probably caused by the FW as opposed to the OS - maybe somebody else could verify this?
I'd imagine this will be fixed shortly but you should still find a kitkat one. I would go back but I'm too scared to flash via RUU. Just seems like something that would go wrong for me lol.
I had similar problem with audio although the camera took noisier photos just converted to gpe 5.0.1 .everything is working good so its definitely a fw problem not 5.0.1
Everyone here probably has an old HTC One they develop on because the Mic was broken which basically ruins the purpose of the "Phone" part of it.
I might try this if no one can help, but there are .zips you can use to disable noise cancellation, but it will only work on 4.2.2 Sense ROMs, Or 4.2 and 4.3 Stock Android ROMs. As of now, I am running the 5.0.1 GPE ROM and I am loving every bit of it. But how can I disable the "Main Mic"?
(By main mic, I mean when I tested both Mics with the diagnostic tool, I got the same old static and sound of data being torn up limb to limb , but the secondary mic works fine. And so does the speakerphone, but video recording and voice commands don't. If there is any help you guys have, ill appreciate it. But if my only option is to try Sense 5.5 (V. 4.2.2) , Than I have no problem trying it.
Thank you all for attempting to help, you guys are all awesome!!
Hey there,
I'm currently running a OP3 with the OmniDragon 8.1 ROM and previously the ResurrectionRemix ROM. However, I do not believe this issue to be a ROM issue so that's why I'm posting here instead.
I've recently been having some issues with bluetooth and was hoping someone could help. I can connect my phone to my cars handsfree system perfectly fine and it works correctly. I can play music via Spotify and any other music player fine.
However, as soon as I make or receive a phone call I'm left where the person can't hear me, and I can't hear them. I can't even hear the ringing tone when phoning someone. However, as soon as I turn it from bluetooth back to the phone or just regular speaker, it works fine.
This previously was not the case when I was running Nougat.
But as soon as I upgraded to 8.1 this issue started happening.
I don't think it has anything to do with the ROM and is actually something to do with perhaps OP3 Firmware/Modem or something similar.
Car hands free works fine with other phones like an iPhone, so that's out of the question.
I've attached a catlog to this post from when this issue was happening in the car, so hopefully someone can narrow it down for me.
Any help is appreciated!
Actually many roms have been having issues with BT calls. It's due to some of the changes in the telephony package.
Hello, did you manage to find any Oreo rom that fixed this issue for you? Would appreciate any tips.
I too have had similar issues with Oreo and OnePlus 3. Using an handsfree Jabra Freeway and the microphone often does not work when I answer or phone someone during a drive. Which is extremely annoying and dangerous.
I had hopes that with the release of some alpha Android Pie roms, these BT issues would be fixed. But the issue seem to persist, at least for my device.
My only fix was to go back to nougat. The most stable rom i've found is the unofficial lineage 14.1 by sultan. This have been my daily driver for awhile now and seems to work fine.
