Hi All, i'm unsure if this is something that can be resolved or not but I have couple of issues with Mirrorlink in my 2016 Civic.
Firstly, when I run Sygic Car navigation it impacts Spotify audio which i'm running via Rockscout. It becomes stuttery and crackly. Its really frustrating and wondered if anyone had any ideas how I could maybe try and resolve the issue?
Secondly and of less importance is that the volume on Mirrorlink is considerably quieter than say the bluetooth or DAB so I end up cranking it up which means when switching the source back to say DAB means its very loud.
Any suggestions welcome

Bluetooth stereo headset: Sony DR-BT10CX
Problem: The playback pitch is changed after silence
The solutions form their support site http://www.sony.co.th/support/faq/189664/product/dr-bt10cx/modelfirst?site=hp_en_TH_i:
(1) Check interference with Wireless Lan or other Bluethooh connections.
(2) The communication condition may improve by sliding MODE switch to MODE 2
My question: what is MODE 2? How to switch to it? MODE 2=discoverable? MODE 1=connectable? Can someone answer, please?
Thanks in advance.

*My music is playing at different speeds, when connected to my bluetooth stereo headset (Sony, DR-BT10CX). Only when there's a silence, it is played at a higher speed and then at a slower speed, which is very annoying (it results in a false sounding song). It is a hardware-related problem discribed here: . General support site: http://www.sony.co.th/support/product/dr-bt10cx?site=hp_en_TH_i
i have something similar

HTC artemis, Moto HT820 headphones, touch 4.01 rom. on resume, it sounds *fractionally* faster for a second. I though I was imagining it...!
Update: The silence and pitch change is caused by interference with other wireless connections. In this case that is WiFi ~ wireless LAN. At the university some points are sensitive. Now, there is very little to no interference anymore. Speculative, the battery status may also play a role here.
Next to this, switching to MODE 2 (where the reception stability takes priority) might be a hardware switch on the Bluetooth headset, according to the manual of some other similar products. I haven't found such switch on my Sony.
I have it too
I have noticed the same on my EXIBEL BT stereo headset when listening to music from my TYTN II. It lasts for periods of several seconds, and is quite annoying. BTW, this happens even when i'm out walking in the open, presumably at a fair distance from any WIFI transmitters.
Yes, I have the same problem with my HTC One S (villec2) and cheapo sports headset. I can't really talk about the state of the art, since this phone is stuck on Android 4.1.1 -- but it just beggars belief that any developer anywhere thought it was acceptable to deal with buffer under/over-runs by varying the sample rate, and hence the pitch and tempo, during stereo playback. Do these people never listen to music?
What probably happened was that the Bluetooth audio system was originally designed for hands-free telephony, where low latency is paramount and pitch changes are barely noticeable since the content is just speech. This system was then re-used for stereo, when what they should have done was allow a larger buffer and longer latency (which doesn't matter with music playback) to cope with data interruptions. Lazy engineers.
Anyway, turning off Wi-fi greatly reduces the incidence of pitch shifts, but does not eliminate it completely. I look forward to the day when there is a supported custom ROM for my device based on Andriod >= 4.2, which apparently has improvements to Bluetooth data delivery. Bt I'm not holding my breath.
Bluetooth issue
I have the same problem with the Bluetooth skipping as well. I heard that it may be a interference problem with WiFi but its most likely the ROM. This ROM has stopped me from constantly switching to other roms because it has all the features I want and the battery life is great. I just hope that the Bluetooth issue can be fixed in time. :good: :good: for this amazing ROM though.
I noticed this M8 post regarding bluetooth in call volume with a Hyundai i30 (same stable as Kia Sportage)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/low-volume-via-car-bluetooth-audio-t2913015
Interestingly I have exactly the same issue with my new M9 with Kia Sportage Sat Nav unit which is probably the same as (or similar) to the i30 unit in the first post. Have latest firmware installed in the car sat nav.
As stated, both streaming of radio/music is fine! As for the end of call beep, very loud!
Sony Xperia Z2 and Samsung Note 4 was fine in same car.
Very annoying indeed
Anyone else had this issue, found a fix or can suggest something to try?
Thank you

I have the same problem. Have bluetooth volume up max on the phone and the car system up max too but it's too quiet to hear anyone in the car if i'm moving at speed.
I imagine the fix will involve rooting and installing a volume fix / mod but never had much luck with BT volume on mod's personally in the past.
I too suffer from a really low in-call volume while using BT.
1. I've now re-updated my head unit with latest firmware
2. Remove my device from the head unit
3. In addition, removed "Sportage" from the phone BT devices
4. Rebooted the phone
5. Turned off the ignition and waited for the head unit to power down
Re-did the whole BT pairing exercise and touch wood, audio is louder ....... but the end call beep is still way too loud!
Has anyone noticed something similar with their LG G4?
When playing music, or podcasts, using different apps (eg CloudPlayer, GMusic, Pocketcasts) via bluetooth in our newest car (Honda Civic '14) I get a noticeable scratchy electric noise now and again - sounds a bit like an old jack cable that needs some cleaning.
Weirdly though, when I use the G4 in our other car (another Civic but this time a '10) which I don't have bluetooth set up for - but rather use the headphone jack and AUX on the car. This also has some weird noise issues on the left channel too. Not like the sound on the other car - but this is amore obvious distortion/static/crap. It's not a continual noise like an out of tune TV (like you'd get in the old days), but it's a frequent intermittent noise.
Do you think this is due to the G4 - or what?
It seems weird to me that in the two cars there are similar audio issues, via different input sources.
Coincidence?
I haven't tested either car with other devices yet - but before I do, I just wondered if someone on here had experienced similar.

Had the issue on g3 my fix was when i use music i had to turn off all other sounds even screen toich sounds
"i had to turn off all other sounds even screen toich sounds "
I don't understand. I don't have any other audio on as far as I know when the bluetooth is on.
Are you saying that the phone needs to be set to silent, in order for bluetooth streamed audio not to be affected?
The thing I find weird is that it's only the left channel which has issues - right channel seems perfect.
And this is both for when using bluetooth, or minijack cable.
Why should only one channel be affected?
I've got same issue with sound via bt in my car with a parrot receiver. Scratches for a few secs after connection, then it stops. But continuous scratchy sound when using gmaps or waze
Been having problems with the blue tooth crashing my car stereo during a call... After a few minutes it completely crashes the head unit.
Phone has been changed and problem persists..
Ice is fine with p4,p4a,and p3 phones. Toyota touch ice.
Safe mode doesn't make any difference..
Now I may have found the issue...
I was talking on the phone thru Bluetooth on using the ice.
I wasn't moving in the car and the Bluetooth didn't crash the ice...
So I suspect the issue is on the call side and how the phone is dealing with phone signal and changing phone transmitters when driving which is affecting the Bluetooth side.
I will add streamed music via Bluetooth is fine when driving.
Anyone else having a similar issue ?
Any of the XDA god's got any thoughts..
Google help have suggested I change the phone a 3rd time....

I have not had this issue yet. I do use wired Android Auto (in my Subaru) all the time, which I believe still uses the Bluetooth for the calls as normal - however, I'm not certain I've been on calls long enough while driving to necessarily trigger the issue.
Might take someone's experience with using it with a Toyota setup similar to yours to report back more useful feedback, since different car manufacturers are notorious for having different Bluetooth experiences.
Hi,
Ever since the big update to android 12 came early this year, I am facing a strange bug. While connected to car audio via bluetooth (Not android auto), I experience that sometimes the volume suddenly just drops mid song by about 10%. Its noticeable and also the volume feels muffled, and the EQ feels flattened. THe clarity it had before seems reduced and and all notes seems melding together. I dont have any other complaint with the update but this issue feels just weird. Anyone else noticed such weird issue?
UPDATE: Was at party on Sunday and connected my phone to the giant bluetooth speaker. Confirmed the issue persists and not a fault of my car audio system.
I am having the same problem, any clue what to do about it?
