Here's another odd little niggly thing I've found about my Touch Pro.
I normally have the volume at about 90% all the time. When I get in my truck and the phone automatically connects to my bluetooth stereo, the volume on the phone suddenly changes to mute. I then have to up the volume back to it's normal level.
The volume will stay put from then on, even after disconnecting and reconnecting the A2DP....
...except.....
...if I have to reboot the phone for some reason. After the reboot, the first time it connects to the bluetooth stereo it mutes again.
Any ideas why this is happening?

Same problem with my elife e8

an issue;
under wm5 my wizard automatically connected with my headset when it was in the neighborhood. since i use the roms with wm6 it's no longer automatic and must turn off and on the headset for a connection....
is there a solution.....
I have noticed this problem, too, with WM6. Couple things I have found that work are:
Turning on the bluetooth on your phone, before you turn the headset on. My Jawbone Aliph will only connect automatically if the bluetooth on the phone is already turned on, before I turn it on.
Double pressing or holding down a button on your headset. With my BlueAnt Car Kit, if I double press the the answer button, it automatically connects to my phone, which is way easier then having to go on my phone and turn on the headset from the bluetooth settings. Just try variations of double pressing or pressing and holding to see if that creates an automatic connection.
Hope that helps!

thanks for the effort to help, unfortunaly the work around you wrote are things i also used in the past but isn't it possible to fix this?
Hey fellas..
Whenever I sync any bluetooth device to my phone, it periodically turns on my display on my Samsung Omnia (it turns off normally on its own). As soon as I turn off the bluetooth device or disconnect with it, then my display stays off. My bluetooth stays enabled during all this testing FYI.
Has anybody ran into this issue before?
Thanks in advance
why would that be an issue?

I have my bluetooth headset on and my screen keeps turning on every few minutes. Its any bluetooth device being linked to my phone.
Bumping my question back to Page 1.
you mean... it lights up every now and again while a bluetooth device is connected? or only while connecting to the device?
With my bluetooth headset connected the screen turns on every few minutes and it appears that the time inbetween the screen turning on is identical. I think the headset is just checking with the phone to keep connected, which turns the screen on.
When I synced via bluetooth to my desktop, the screen turns on whenever I do anything over bluetooth between the computer and the phone.
Is there any registery settings that I might try to prevent bluetooth from turning my screen on? ever?
Same thing here mate. Only my Touch Pro turns on the display (and keeps it on no matter what) whenever some BT accesory is connected, whether it be the carkit or the headphones. Pressing the power button causes the screen to turn off only to turn on by itself a second later. When BT accessory is disconnected everything works normal. Oh and I have bluetooth on all the time on the phone (never turn it off), but it only does this with smth connected. I suppose it's some kind of keepalive, but it annoys the hell outta me cause I can't listen to music w/o draining my battery and even starting some programs by accidental screen presses. So if anyone has a solution to keep the screen off it'd be more than welcome.
OK, so i've paired up an A2DP bluetooth headset with my topaz...most things work well, if not great. but there are 2 slight problems: 1) sometimes when i press play on my headset, the screen turns on and doesn't lock. i've already clicked so many things in my pocket by mistake when that happened. and i set the phone to lock when i push the power/stand-by button...but that doesn't work when the bluetooth is connected(works fine when it's not). 2) i usually have my phone on vibrate, but that turns both the ringer and system volume down...so i have to turn off single volume and turn up the system volume...finee..but the settings won't stay. when i take it out of vibrate, both ringer and system volume is at 100%(good) but when i turn on vibrate again, both volumes go back down to 0%(bad) instead of what i wanted, which is: when in vibrate mode, ringer volume can be 0% but system volume has to be at 100% in order to listen to music through my headphones. any help would be very much appreciated!!
First off, I apologize if this has been covered elsewhere.
I have a Lexus CT200H and when I have the phone connected to the internal phone/audio I can hardly hear person on the other end of the line regardless of how high I have the volume turned up on the car or the phone.
Any ideas?

Similar issue with my 2012 Mazda 3. I can't change the in-call volume on my phone (Verizon Galaxy S3). So I have to turn the volume all the way up on the Mazda BT to (barely) hear the call.
I'm using the volume buttons, and on the phone screen it shows the BT volume icon and slider going all the way up, but the volume thru the Mazda is unchanged.
Same thing occurs with my wife's HTC Incredible 2. I adjust the BT in-call volume up and down, but there is no effect on the actual volume.
Both phones ARE able to adjust the BT in-call volume on a BlueAnt ST3 unit, so I know the phones are OK.
Surprisingly, for music streaming, I *am* able to adjust the music volume on the phone. But not the in-call volume.
So troutbeck27, when using the volume keys, do you see the BT icon next to the volume slider? Do you hear ANY difference between a low/high volume setting on your phone? And are you able to change your media streaming volume on your phone?
Anyone else have this issue with the in-call BT volume being non-adjustable?
Install the app called "Volume+" to boost the volume of the bluetooth device.
had the same issue and the work around is to turn off the headset button on the phone and turn it back on. That will fix the problem.

I tried:
-turning off bluetooth (at the system level) and turning it back on
-turning off/on bluetooth during the call (i.e., switching from car BT to handset and back again)
Neither of those resulted in allowing volume adjustments...did I understand your suggestion correctly?
Thanks.
I'm having similar bluetooth volume issues, my head unit is the DEH-P9400BH.
Running Cyanogenmod10-nightly.
The phone will output to its speaker, or headphones just fine, but the moment I pair it to my car's had unit, and bluetooth takes over, the audio is much quieter. Specifically the bass signals don't appear to be passed from phone to car.
I've tried unpairing from the phone, from the car, deleting the profiles of the car from phone and phone from car. I've tried unpairing while bluetooth was in use playing music. Tried lowering the volume levels and raising them again (as that seemed to work once before).
I have a feeling that the phone's master volume setting is set lower when bluetooth connects, and I'm find a hard time finding that control, as the volume key controls the bluetooth volume settings while bluetooth is activated.
Any ideas?
Thanks for reading!
Edit: bluetooth audio has worked before without too many problems. This is a recent thing, maybe a week old.

Hi.
Scenario:
Phone connects to car Bluetooth.
I increase the Bluetooth volume level on the phone to 100% (I do this because some of the podcasts I listen to are quiet in places)
Next time I use the car the phones Bluetooth volume is reset (by the phone I presume) to abut 70%.
So again I have to increase the Bluetooth volume level to 100%.
What's all that about?
Is there a hidden setting somewhere - this wasn't the case with my Nexus 6p.
Cheers!!

Most phones do this so that the volume is not on full blast in case you are using headphones. I also get a warning on my screen when I go to up the volume again.

Is there anyway to stop this. My phone only seems to do this after the last 2 updates. It's annoying. Have to turn sound back up on my phone to compensate, if I turn car up, it becomes way to loud when changing inputs back to radio or cd
