answering calls with BT earpiece - Sony Smartwatch 3

I paired a BT earpiece to my SWR50. It plays music and I hear it well, but i can't answer calls. i dont hear anything on it. Did someone managed to solve this?

Only the urbane 2 can use an earpiece for calls, and even then only when the watch is not bt paired with a phone.
Even with the hwatch and zen2, the phone uses the watch as an earpiece, and you can't pair an earpiece to an earpiece. You'll need to have your earpiece paired with the phone.

I have a LG G3 phone and a sony smartwatch 3. Is there a way to answer calls while i am connected via BT to the watch? .The watch shows that it is connected to th earpiece. I do hear music from watch but not calls

In order to answer the calls on your earpiece, it has to be paired and connected directly to phone. Our watches does not support calling nor streaming calls from the phone to the earpiece. Streaming musing from the watch to the earpiece was mainly "invented" for the sportsmen so their phones may be left at home and they could just go and exercise outside with the music being streamed from the watch to the earpiece. But you're still paired with the watch, not the phone which is, well, that main unit that make a call.
So no, there's no way to answer calls when your earpiece is connected to the watch, not the phone.

Ringtone only in headset,driving me nuts!

in my tp2 i noticed that when i have a wired or bluethooth headset conected and someone calls me it only rings in the headphones! this made me lose several phone calls.
in other devices i had , i used a reg hack for it to ring in the device speaker and headphone,so i tried in my tp2 but it does not work as the reg hack is related to the microsoft bluethooth stack.
therefore i m asking for help and also if other tp2 users can confirm this issue.
my bt heaset is a jabra bt3030.
thanks
I am having the same problem with my TP2, the headset becomes useless for this reason.
I use a Sennheiser MM-200 headset, bought this headset not to have earphones plugged in ears all time but only when i have incoming call.
Not sure what to tell you about the wired headset, but is your BT using the normal headset BT profile or is it connecting also with A2DP/Stero BT? That could be part of the problem.
In the Bluetooth menu it is connected with: "Stereo Audio" and "Hands-free"
you can switch off the stereo audio function and stay with the hans-free function only. it works fine, but you have to do it manually.

I made a soft reset and now the phone rings even with stereo audio enabled - whats good for me, but i do not understand why
Hi Faria,
There is a setting in the BT config to transfer "ALL" system sounds to the connected audio device, this may be your issue. I don't use a wired but my Rhodium rings in the headset and on the device after removing this option.
Cheers,

I really hate this feature too. I am used to listening to music on my BT hedset. So when I get home I would just take them off, put the phone on my desk and go about my business. But if I don't disconnect the headset now I won't notice it ringing... which can lose in lost phone calls.
Hopefully someone will find a workaround.
Start>Settings>Connections>Bluetooth
First tab (gears)>Advanced>Audio
"Play system sounds on remote hands-free device" = uncheck
Just tested and works for me.
I get the normal ringtone from the phone and the regular "beep" from the stereo headset.
FYI, this is basically the same information as listed two posts up...
On my old phone if my headset was in and my phone rang it would say call from and state the persons name through my headset. The ringer itself wouldn't play through my headset nor the phone. And now I can't remember but I know it beeps in my ear but I think the phone plays the actual ringer also at the same time. But if I checkmark what you guys are unchecking will the actual ringer play through my plantronics bt headset and not on the phone.. I kind of would like that for if I am out and dont' want my phone to ring all loud I would rather the ringer play in my ear and was wondering if that's what happens when I check that. Mine was unchecked when I got the phone.. I don't havea bt headset I use for music just talking mostly when driving..

voice call issue when paired with moto360 and car

Here are the details
Honda Odessey 2013
OnePlus One 64GB, running 11.0-XNPH33R and franco kernel r16
Android Wear 1.0.1.1379611
Google Play Service 5.0.89 (1307510-038)
Google Search 3.6.14.1337016.arm
Moto 360 4.4W.1/KGW42N
Without Moto 360/Android Wear, my phone will pair with the car just fine
I can listen to audio (streaming from Tunein Radio)
I can make voice call, and the call will go through car speaker
With Moto 360/Android Wear, my phone will pair with the car just fine
I can still listen to audio (streaming from Tunein Radio)
However, when I make a voice call on my phone, the audio does not go through car speaker
Phone is still connected via bluetooth
On the dialer, there's an icon for directing audio to headset, speaker, or bluetooth. bluetooth option is not dimmed, but I can't select it either
In short, when Moto 360 is paired to the phone, voice call audio only go through phone speaker
As a test, while I am still on the call, with audio going through phone speaker, I goto Android Wear, and disconnect Moto 360. 5 seconds later, voice call audio go through car speaker!
Does anyone have experience with moto 360 and bluetooth voice call over car speake?
I hope this is a bug, and not a feature!

I have the same exact issue but with a Bluetooth earpiece, the voice call audio will not go through my BT earpiece. I've missed many important calls due to this. It's almost as if the voice audio is being rerouted to the watch!
Same issue
I have the exact same issue. It is with my wife's car, a 2014 MAzda CX-5 and also occasionally in my Nissan LEAF. It bothers me.
Same here with my 2014 Genesis.
For those replying to the OP, you might want to list your phone too, not just your car, since it's more likely the phone that's the issue.
On my Nexus 5, I don't see this issue with my 2004 Acura, nor with my wife's 2014 Jeep. I've received and made calls in both vehicles just fine, although, I will say that I haven't had much luck using the 360 to place the call. It always seems to fail to find the right person, or simply fail to understand my command at all.
I'm having similar issues with my G3 and BMW M4.... If my phone and the watch are connected, the car will *usually* connect normallyl... but if I make a call, the call usually goes fine for a while but then all of a sudden the car will lose the connection randomly. This did not happen before I had the watch. If i disconnect the watch from the phone, the car phone picks right back up and works normally. There have also been a few times where the phone and the car have not automatically paired now that I have the watch. Any fixes? Is there a way to prioritize bluetooth to the car connection? I did notice that one time when my call got kicked off the carphone was when a message was coming through.

Moto360 - One Feature Driving Me Insane

Hey Guys - I have a Moto360 1st Gen.
Longer story short:
I have my phone paired via BT to my watch, and also to my Cars bluetooth Audio. If im driving in the car and also have my watch on and I receive a call, the in-car bluetooth will notify me and i will answer the call via the car. However any Audio for the call routes through the watch and not the cars audio, AKA i cant hear them and they cant hear me. When I turn my watch off, Obviously, the Cars Bluetooth works fine -- But when both are paired at the same time, my car receives and sends no audio, the watch gets it first.
Is there any way whatsoever I can turn this feature off, so my car gets audio and not the watch? Ive tried a few things and nothing seems to work - other then old school turning my watch off manually when i get in the car and turning it on when i get out of the car

HELP: Galaxy Watch Active 2, Doesn't Route Calls to Synced Bluetooth Headset

Hello,
Please help me to solve this, otherwise this Watch thing is useless for my needs.
I have Watch Active 2 LTE [dont use LTE, nor have eSim on my current provider, got it since it was almost same price and had more RAM]
The watch synced with BT to ROG Phone 2.
I have Bluetooth headset that synced to Watch 2, i copied my Aduoibooks to the watch and listen to them from the watch, it works but low volume.
In Watch BT settings the Call Audio and Media Audio is ENABLED
BUT the moment I call to someone from my watch or someone calls me, I get Audio trough Watch speaker and watch microphone used as input.
When I open Bluetooth settings [during the call] the Call Audio and Media Audio automatically got disabled, and it stays disabled until i finish the call and press PLAY on the music player.
Maybe this is NORMAL and smart watches dont route call audio to Bluetooth headsets since audio goes from the phone to the watch and from the watch to the headset?
I tested bunch of different headsets, its all the same behavior
Please help, Thanks
Guy's anyone? Is it even possible?
