How to pause music when the power of a2dp/avrcp device is turned off - HTC Tornado

My situation is when my 586w is paired with the car stereo (Dual XHD 7714), whenever I turn off the car engine in music streaming mode, the music playing will then switch to the phone. However if I press the pause key on the head unit before I turn off the engine, the music playing will then pause accordingly.
That's kind of annoying because I have to manually pause the music on the phone if I forget pressing a key on the head unit first before I shut the car engine down.
I've tried flashing the 6.1 & 6.5 rom from guohuageng & Gregorys but both gave me the same result.
I've also tried paring the bluetooth stereo headset to the phone and also gave me the same result.
At last I tried to connect the iphone and a sony ericsson phone with the car stereo and both devices pause the music beautifully when I turn off the car engine in the music streaming mode.
I've search through the forum and it seems no one mentions there is a problem here.
It seems to me that it is the rom problem. Do I have to registry edit or switch to another rom to solve the problem? Any help would be appreciated.

oh well, What I understand,
You want to make phone pause the music accordingly when u turn off the engine (while not pressing the pbutton on headset)
This isnt rom's problem, tis kinda problem exists with every rom coz u havent pressed any pause key on phone rather on headset. (just like in case of wired headset where if u disconnect ur wired headset and didnt pause, ur music will shift to phone speaker)
The same characteristic applies to A2DP as well

Well, it's strange. I've already tested the iphone 3G and sony ericsson phone paired with the car stereo, both phones would pause the music when I turn off the engine. But it is true that I haven't tested the other A2DP devices with those phone. Let me tested them out in the weekend and see what's happen. Thanks for your reply.

Help with blue tooth music streaming

Hey All,
I have a Diamond, and a cardo rider Q2 for my motorbike helmet. They pair up nicely for phone calls, but I cannot get music to stream to the helmet.
All other functions work fine. If I press a button on the phone the sound of the button comes through.
The annoying thing is that my friend has a N95 and it works just fine, so I know the headset is capable.
Is there some setting that I need to change? Or a download to fix this?
Any help would be appreciated. And please take it easy on me as I am not very capable with technology.
Thanks In advance
Adam
Adam,
Double click on the icon of the paired headphones on the bluetooth screen and make sure that Wireless Stereo is ticked.
The system is using two profiles- one for phone calls (headphones) and the other for music (Wireless Stereo). Yout helmet BT earphones should be able to switch in between as long as they are enabled.

Hey CD, thanks, I tried that, but..
When I do that it only gives me the option of "hands free".
If I plug in my wired HTC head phones while maintaining the blue tooth connection to my helmet and play music the music comes through the wired headset, but when I try to voice activate an outgoing phone call the music changes from the wired headset to the bluetooth headset temporarily.
I have the same problem (posted on another thread) Jabra 320's I use to cycle to work, worked OK with my SE W880i. But like you the TD only registers 'hands free', I have checked the profile in BT and it only shows hands free, there is no BT Stereo box to tick/untick. I have tried installing/uninstalling and using a third party BT program (recommend in a previous thread) and have just upgraded to the new official Rom all to no avail.
I think the TD likes some stereo headset's but sees some others as just a mono handsfree unit.

I have the same Jabra 320's... finally got them working as Wireless stereo pressing the main button again and again during pairing... I didn't know it was going to work - It was out of frustration!!!
I tried several times with my 320's (deleted, re-installed, tried different ways/software) all to no avail.
There is a software upgrade for the 320's on the Jabra site but you need a special usb connector to flash the unit.
In the end I picked up the newer BT3030 cheaply on e-bay and they were recognised straight away as Handsfree and stereo BT streaming.
Both the 320's and 3030's have the A2DP profile, so not sure why the don't see the 320's correctly?
So happily cycling to work again with the BT3030 and listening to BT stereo.
In order for you to do what you want your headset must support A2DP Bluetooth profile (and even if it does it may not work!). That is the profile needed to send stereo music from the HTC. Most handsfree units do not do that - they just support headset and handset Bluetooth profiles.
There is a utility available called BTMusic that can be downloaded free from here. This will allow music to be sent using the headset or handset Bluetooth profiles, and it worked with my Parrot car kit, so it may work for you. The problem is that it is mono only and the quality of the sound is not brilliant - after all these profiles were never designed for that.
So the alternative is to find a new headset that supports both handsfree and A2DP profiles and works with both.
umm yea... i went through EVERY SINGLE thread this thing has. none of the programs work for me period.

stereo bluetooth problem

I've search for over two hours but it seems ive learned alot but i still cant find my problem the problem is that every time i connect to my car kit windows media starts working but then after i turn off my car and then turn it back on the music comes out of phone. So how can i make it play again on my stereo without reconnecting. i have elite rc3 rom and it has a2dp included.
I don't have the same exact problem you do, but I have a stereo bluetooth headset (Jabra BT8010 [awesome headset btw]) and if you don't wait for your bt to connect to your phone first before you fire up WMP OR connect while WMP is playing, it will freak out and do wierd stuff. For me it would either ignore my connection and play out the phone's speaker or play in my headset in mono mode in horrifyingly bad quality.
I hope that helps

Fuze - connect A2DP to car stereo for music, and HFP to Jawbone at same time?

Hi,
I searched the forum, wiki, etc., but didn't find an answer.
I have an AT&T Fuze with the stock ROM (WM 6.1). I know the Fuze is supposed to support multiple simultaneous bt connections. What I would like to do is connect A2DP to my Pioneer stereo for music playback, and also connect handsfree to my Jawbone 2 headset for phone calls while in the car.
I can successfully connect A2DP to my stereo for music by itself.
I can successfully connect HFP to my Jawbone 2 by itself.
I *have* managed to connect to both at the same time, by staying on an active phone call with my Jawbone, then telling my Fuze to connect to the car stereo. However, no music could be heard (from either Mortplayer or WMP). The phone call stayed up just fine though.
Anyone know if there's a way to get both working at the same time?
(And before you ask, I would just use the hands-free capability of my Pioneer stereo for phone calls too, but I've found my car is too noisy for anyone to hear me with the Pioneer's microphone unless I hold it right in front of my mouth, which defeats the "hands free" goal...)
Thanks for any help you can offer.
Best,
Chris
In your case I do not think that is possible since the concept of being able to juggle 2 devices at the same time requires 1 to relinquish control while the other goes active. It turns off the music so you do not get distracted while talking and reconects the music after the call is over.
It seems to be a software protocol if anything. Yes both can be connected at the same time, but both cannot be "active" as in doing both music playback and voice calls.
I have a bt headset that handles 2 profiles at once and according to the protocol, if a call comes in, it pauses my ipod and then picks up the call and then resets back to normal after the call.. Either you have to mess with the coding itself or someone has to come up with a workaround, but I do not think that is possible.
Thanks for the reply. I had hoped it might be possible for the Fuze to route stereo audio to one BT profile (A2DP), while non-stereo audio (e.g., phone call, system tones, etc.) to the HFP profile, almost as though the profiles acted as addressable "service ports" (ala HTTP, SMTP, etc.).
But, unlike with TCP/IP, I admit to knowing next to nothing about how the BT stack works and how profiles are applied to certain types of data (or, how data is routed to a given BT association based on profile).
Thanks again,
Chris
well the thing is.. the fuze can connect to multiple devices simultaneously, but based on the music and voice call order, it is prohibited from doing both at the same time. so therefore when there is no call, the music plays, but when a call comes it, the music is paused and resumed after the call is done. (obviously the call has higher priority here).
My only suggestion is to leave it as it is since it is done so that you do not get distracted while talking and probably while you're driving.
Multitasking is difficult when you're listening to 2 things, responding to 1, and driving at the same time. The more you multitask the less you are able to devote to your main activity (in your case, driving).
but yeah. if you can find someone who can mess with that and allow for both to be active at the same time, then congrats. Otherwise just think of it as a safety measure.
Except that, when I had both the headset and the stereo connected to the Fuze, the music *didn't* pause. It just didn't output (as though the volume was muted). In fact, in both Mortplayer and WMP, it appeared as though it was playing at ~2X the normal rate (just watching the track playback time counter).
I know what you're talking about re: listen to music, call comes in, music pauses, call ends, music resumes. That's the behavior I get when I use the car stereo for both handsfree and A2DP.
The behavior when connected to two different devices seemed to be different, though, so I hoped that might mean it was in fact possible.
-Chris
yeah I know what you mean, but maybe the fact that it tried to do both tripped it up and so it took the call as a higher priority and focused the data towards the call.
atleast that is what I think.
I have almost the exact same configuration, except I am using a Sony car stereo but have a jawbone. What I have to do every time I get in the car is the following.
1. Let my stereo connect to both hands free and wireless headphone services.
2. Open bluetooth settings
3. Manually connect to my Jawbone.
It works great.
ATT Fuze
Energy Rom 072209
Old jawbone
Sony XPLOD Car Stereo
I'll also add it's pretty neat to be able to push the jawbone to activate MS Voice Commander and choose what music I want to play over my car stereo.

Thanks for the reply. I'll give that a shot. I'm not sure that my Pioneer stereo will automatically connect both handsfree and A2DP. I know it will do handsfree automatically. We'll see...

A2DP stopped working

Hi,
Yesterday, I installed a new car stereo and after a lot of frustration installing it, I was happily surprised the A2DP worked by default, just paired my touch pro with my stereo, start playing in wmp and it comes through my stereo system. However during the day I started looking for another player to use (during my breaks of course ) and installed pocket music player bundle ( I don't know if it has anything to do with my problem, just trying to include as much info as I can ). In the evening I enabled bluetooth of my phone again, I think I also had the headphone logo, but when trying to play using pocket music player and wmp, it always just used the speaker of the phone and didn't seem to send anything through A2DP.
Any idea how this can be? Is there a setting somewhere to change what audio is used (A2DP/Speaker/ whatever...)?
TIA!
OK, this seems to have been quite stupid.
Haven't been in my car since, but same behaviour with my logitech a2dp bluetooth headset.
Going into bluetooth settings, "right click" on logi_stereoV01 and "instellen als draadloos stereo" (set-up as wireless stereo) did the trick, probably the same for my CAR--BT,sorry for the stupid post.
Although it would be nice if the touch pro would automatically set the detected bluetooth device as wireless stereo every time, just as it seems to do for setting it headset when in range while turning on the bluetooth.
Sorry for the strange sentences... it was a long day
same problem
i just bought a bluetooth receiver for the car.
it fits in the lighter place and transmits via FM to the car radio.
My htc connected staight away (no code required to me) with the new "car Kit" found, but whatever i try i always have the sound from the htc speaker...
How can i solve this?
Thanx in advace.

[Q] MW600 (A2DP) headset for music on Samsung S2

I am a new owner of a Samsung Galaxy S2 and cannot find a way to get my Sony Ericsson MW600 (fully A2DP compliant) BT stereo headset to work with the music player. All other system sounds, telephone, voice commands etc are working fine on the MW600. Even the BT to my car is fine. The Bluetooth settings menu says that the MW600 is "Connected to phone audio". Under profiles for the MW600 pairing it does say Phone: "Connected to phone audio" and also Media: "Use for media audio".
The whole point of the MW600 is for hearing quality music playback, but for all BT setting I tried, the music just comes through the phone speaker, and not through the MW600. Probably I have overlooked a setting or special condition? Any ideas?
Thanks.
JM
I'm soon to be an owner of a Samsung Galaxy S2 also, I'm really hoping that my MW600 is compatible too.
On my desire, the controls and audio were fine. Sadly the track display wasn't.
I'm going to do some SGS2 A2DP research and I'll post anything if I find any relevant reads.
I'm interested in getting a MW600 too, so i'll bump this up one time...
For Anyone Interested I have A2DP working perfectly with my Samsung Galaxy S2 and Sony Ericsson MW600 bluetooth headset.
Pairing driven by phone works perfectly and track titles also show up on the MW600's OLED screen.
Also works flawlessly with most Samsung based ROMs.
Waiting For A2DP to work on AOSP based ROMs..
Try these:
1. Go to settings > wireless and network > Bluetooth
2. Turn on bluetooth if it's not on yet.
3. Pair to MW600 if it's not paired yet
4. Connected or not, long-press the MW600 from the bluetooth devices list
5. You should see these options:
Paired and not connected:
Connect
Unpair
Options
Paired and connected:
Disconnect
Disconnect and Unpair
Options
6. Select options
7. You should see three checkboxes with 3 items:
Connect (checked if your connected to the headphones)
Phone (Checked if you are connected to the headphones' call functions)
Media (Checked if you are connected to the phones' audio streming and remote controle profile)
7. Check the one appropriate
You can also use this to say for example pair the music function to a car stereo and pair the phone function to an in-ear BT headset.
Hope that helps. Hit the thanks button please
I cant even find my mw600 with my SGS2. Is there any setting i need to change? I already tick visible, but still i cannot find it. Please help me.
P/S: what is a2dp? Sorry i'm a newcomer.

Make sure your headphones is in pairing mode do that it is discoverable. To enter pairing mode, hold down the power button for a bit longer when powering up your headset.. about 5 seconds is enough.. You'll know you've entered pairing mode when you see an icon with two arrows circling reach other..
A2dp is the bluetooth profile for transferring audio via bluetooth.. if your bluetooth device supports a2dp.. that simply means it can stream audio.. Bluetooth mice and keyboard for example are devices with hid(human interaction device I think or is it input? I forgot) and can therefore control devices that support hid, like laptops and android devices running froyo, gingerbread or honeycomb..

MW600 (A2DP) headset for music on Samsung S2
On any Android device, under bluetooth settings, you can see list of devices paired.
I also had the same problem, MW600 getting connected as phone device and not media device. If you want to get this fixed, all you have to do is press play and phone button both together same time for 5 seconds. You would be then able to see the MW600 device getting connected to phone and media device.
This worked for me. Hope you guys find this info useful.
