Can someone tell me how to get my Mobile RF-MAB2 connected to answer the phone. It sounds great playing media, hooks right up.
When a call comes the media stops, but will not take call. The bluetooth icon is grayed out, on the call display buttons.
This is driving me crazy.
DROID x Gingerbread not rooted
Thanks for any help.

So I got my hands on the xbox 360 bt headset and wanted to use it with the built in voice search app. However I can't find a way to make it work with voice search reliably.
With or without headphones plugged in
In or out of the car dock
Rebooted phone
Played with bt toggle
Basically it only. Works with youtube spotify and maybe phone calls. However it did work when I first paired it with my phone.
Just audio play back
Alien build 4

Detail bump
Had a chance to use my phone in an extended phone call and confirmed the bt microphone can be used during calls.
Trying to develop a test to prove the mic isn't working in a car dock or for voice search and will post again with method and results.
-right now I'm thinking rubber band and dense cloth or maybe some non conductive gelatin used for cleaning keyboards.

New details bump.
The microphone suppression tests failed to stress the microphone so now my only proof the microphone doesn't work in my car is the difference in performance when it does and does not

have you tried toggling the device settings in bluetooth settings? tap & hold device till option window pops up and selecting phone/media? there can also be a conflict if there is another bluetooth device connected using the same selection.
There is no secondary bluetooth device and the settings toggle had little to no effect

Switched from alien to darkside rom so my results may change but are promising so far

I noticed the same thing. I recently started using a Bluetooth again and it amazed me that it didn't work. Unfortunately, I lost my good headset (the one that used to work) so I can't test it. I can confirm however, that Bluetooth did work for all audio and voice functions on the stock ROM and some of the deblur ROMs from the 2.2 days.

So it seems standard operation is that ringer and notification sounds play though the phone's speaker and through a connected bluetooth device. For example, a headset or my car's bluetooth audio. When the phone rings, the ringtone comes through the phone's own speaker, and comes through the car's speakers. But, as with any bluetooth device, there is a 1/2 second or so delay. So what i end up with is this bouncing echoy ringing that starts on the phone and ends on the bluetooth.
Is there a way to tell the phone to only play ringtones through bluetooth when connected? I do NOT want ringtones played out of the phone speaker when I have bluetooth connected.
I've noticed this as well. It would be nice to be able to do that but I haven't been able to find a setting for it.
Try putting ur phone on vibrate or silent.

Then there will be no notification/ringer sound at all through anything.
Well it works on mine that's why I suggested it. It's worth a test if it's that annoying.

Bluetooth audio widget in Google Play used to be good for this, but it seems developer hasn't updated his app in awhile.

Yes, but I confirm that in this case, no sound is played any more, even through BT headphone (on my SGS2 at least).
No it's not a solution.
If anybody has an idea...

That doesn't work on my Samsung Galaxy S4 with my LG headset, unfortunately. If I have bluetooth connected and select a ringtone from the list it plays over both. If I turn the ringer and notification volumes to silent, nothing comes through the bluetooth either. Did you make any other adjustments other than just turn your ringer to silent?

I downloaded the app called "Bluetooth Auto Connect" by UniqTec, and while it seems to be a cool program that does what it says it can do, I don't see how it solves the problem of sound coming through both the phone and bluetooth devices. Can you tell us what you did to make this work?
I have a Samsung Galaxy 6 s phone and a Motorola HK255 Bluetooth. Putting phone on, "mute" silences the phone ringer, but I can still hear the ring when my Bluetooth is on! :-} Problem solved for me! I hope this works for you too.

Hey Cosmic Phoenix,
I can see there are at least 20 apps with the *exact* name in the Play Store... Could you tell me which developer specifically the 'Bluetooth Auto Connect' is made by please?
Hi,
I just bought a cheap Ulefone uWear Smartwatch. I connected it successfully with my HTC One M8. I would like to receive all notification on my watch, so I downloaded the Fundo Companion, but unfortunately when I receive a call, the sound is coming by default from the watch, not from my phone, which is very annoying for me. Is it possible to receive notifications on the watch, but to speak through the phone? Now I have to change everytime the audio source when I receive a phonecall in order to use the phone for calls.
Thank you in advance.
Bluetooth settings - select your paired device settings - disable media audio (if necessary you can remove phone audio also)

I tried, but this doesn’t select the phone as default audio source by phonecalls. Stopping the phone audio stops also all the notifications on the watch.
Nexus 6p, has been fine for a long time, no changes I know of: I connect to car or headphones, music plays, then about 2 mins or less later it stops playing through the device and plays through the phone but the phone and the device still say they are connected. To fix I turn off phone or headphones and reconnect then it works fine. Stock Android, all updates.
Thanks for any help! [emoji4]

Bluetooth global issues. Every device runs into this at some point. Factory reset and it will fix it.
