No audio on most incoming Bluetooth calls - Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions &

My S20+ has had this problem almost as long as I've had my vehicle (with Ford sync 3). For whatever reason, if I take an incoming call on Bluetooth, about 80% of the time, there is no audio - I can't hear them and they can't hear me.
To troubleshoot I have to switch to speaker, then we can both hear each other.
If I'm on Android auto (wired), I have to unplug, then hit speaker.
My wife's Galaxy S21 ultra never does this.
It never happens on outgoing calls.
It seems equally likely to happen whether I'm using the phone for Bluetooth media (podcast app, separate music app both seem equally likely) or not using it for audio at all (i.e. Just listening to the radio)
It seems equally likely to happen whether I'm on Android auto (wired) or just connected to Bluetooth the old school way.
The only commonality is that it's on incoming calls on Bluetooth. I've been unable to identify what factor is different on those rare occasions when it does work
Twice I've tried completely unpairing and starting fresh. That seems to work, temporarily. But eventually it goes back to its old ways, so this is not a solution.
Are there a few developer options I may want to try checking on or off to see if they'll help? I don't want to go messing with that stuff unless it's recommended by someone here. Any other ideas?

Solution to problems with headsets with inline mic

While shopping for headsets this afternoon, I found myself chatting with one of the sales in an audio shop for a while. Described the problem to him, how any earphones with an inline mic automatically sound "radio-y" unless the button is pressed down. Immediately he pulled out a plug and told me it's because manufacturers might have switched the positives and negatives, and that this plug can "switch" it back. He sold it to me for around US$4 (Might have been ripped off, but I was too happy to have found a solution to care).
Tested with (my brand new shiny) Skull Candy Full Metal Jacket. Button works in answering calls and mic seems to work as well. Weirdly, mic only works in native call, but not skype calls. (Still need more testing on that) Only play/pause is supported in DoubleTwist (not tested on other audio players), and next/previous tracks don't seem to work. Combo was probably recognized (otherwise music would have stopped, I'd imagine), I guess that's software problem now.
Yeah, I know I'm not saying much helpful here, but that might be something that you would want to look for. "switching positives and negatives". Not sure what that means myself, but meh, it works!

New Note 3, couple issues

So, I love this phone and hate it at the same time.
First off, just at random, the BT, Wi-Fi or GPS will just turn off. Has not happened for a couple days, nothing has really changed.
Now the big issues. These are driving me nuts....
I have a Pyle PLDN74BTi (don't laugh, it was dirt cheap) and it supports Bluetooth audio and tagging and speakerphone from a BT phone. All the features work except the tagging. I cannot get BT to display the audio info or the phone info.
Second, I just bought an iBolt xProDockX. When I dock it, the phone recognizes its docked, but it will not open the doc app upon dock. I look in the default apps, and the dock isn't even listed. I purchased Car Home Ultra and it wont auto open, I even install the dock&drive app from iBolt and it wont auto open upon docking either.
Anyone else having these stupid issues with their phone? I have cleared all the apps, and I have restarted the phone. No Dice.
You posted this in the S3 forum, not the Note 3... I doubt you will get any help here

Looking for a Car Speakerphone with Specific Features

I've got one right now that works nicely, except my phone doesn't disconnect from it when I leave my car and go into my apartment. If it runs out of battery power, it does not turn on automatically. I plan on buying another that powers on automatically and ripping out or killing the battery so that it only stays on when getting powered on by the car.
I'd like one that:
Turns itself on after losing power
Auto Connects to my phone
Has a built in speaker (instead of using the car's speakers)
I'd prefer it to have suction cups to mount on the windshield, but I can always easily attach it myself.
I'd prefer no voices telling me it's powering on/connecting
I thought I found one that would auto turn on with power as it has a physical switch to power on, but then saw this youtube video and think the voice would get very annoying very quickly. It depends on how loud the voice actually is in person I guess.

I recommend JABRA Speakerphone. Most of them has many feature like auto connect, auto on-off, etc.
Jabra FREEWAY Bluetooth Speakerphone
Jabra DRIVE Bluetooth In-Car Speakerphone
Jabra TOUR Bluetooth In-Car Speakerphone
Hopes help.

Question Problem since I updated to One UI 4.0

Hi everyone.
I have a very very annoying problem onj Z Fold 3 since I installed the update with One UI 4.0
Almost all media audio is played on Galaxy Watch 4 instead on the phone: all youtube audio, all voice messages in all messengers and notifications sounds from the phone are being played on the watch.
Watch is NOT listed as an media output device, but does this all by imitating a phone call (?!?) from a number 10000000 (picture shown).
This happens most of the time when I do not see it, and the virtual call remains there until I disconnect it manually, also, drains all the battery of the watch in 5-6 hours.
Please help. I temporarily solved that by disabling all kind of phone calls on the watch, but that is not a solution for me since I need to be able to manage calls on the watch.
Thanks!

Have you done a factory reset on the watch to see if the issue persists?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If nobody appears here with a specific solution, I will have to try that. It's a ***** to go trough config again unless really necessary
