How do I route (phone) audio to computer via BT?

Hi guys,
I have an XDA ATOM and a BT dongle using Bluesoleil.
I've paired them both up and I am able to use the computer as a "Wireless Stereo" - thus rerouting music/sounds to be played via the computer speakers. Now I can play mp3's and other audio from my PDA direct on my computer speakers.
This is great, but not exactly what I hoped for. I was hoping to route the phone audio instead ("Wireless Headset"). That is, routing the audio that I hear when I'm in a phone call. I've configured the Bluesoleil application to have the "Wireless Headset" service enabled, along with all the other services.
The weird thing is, my Atom only shows up "Serial Port" and "Wireless Stereo" when paired with my computer.
Any ideas on how I could get it working?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You need to set yr Atom as Handsfree in yr Bluesoliel BT Software....

Hi,
Thanks for replying.
How exactly do I do that? I dont get any options which I can change when I'm pairing up the ATOM with my computer. It pairs up as a "Device name" and then BlueSoleil picks up all the services the ATOM is compatible with, ie. DUN/File Transfer. It doesnt seem like its possible to specify the ATOM to be a handsfree device in BlueSoleil itself.

look for the services after the device discovery..there are options for BT Audio..

I'm able to connect to my computer and use the Audio Gateway (in the headset mode) (computer is being used as the headset)
I can enable the handsfree when in a call. I'm able to see the number of the caller on my computer when the phone rings. I can answer the call from my computer.
Problem is I can't hear a thing.
I have switched the audio mixers between Realtek AC97 Audio (my soundcard), Bluetooth Audio and Bluetooth High Quality Audio and I still can't hear a thing. Is there a way to map my BT dongle's audio gateway output to my soundcard?

BUMP.... anybody?

The BlueSoliel software is notoriously crap, it's why it's used on all the cheap dongles, because they charge so much less for their licenses.
This should work fine with the Widcomm bluetooth stack on your PC, I have done this before as it was nice to use my PC's headset while I was gaming to take calls also.
Haven't tried it in a couple of years though, but it definately worked with Widcomm.

if i were to get a bluetooth dongle i would buy one directly from broadcom
(who makes the widcomm software)
because even if other makers also license the software
broadcom release firmware to match the later versions of widcomm
if other dongle makers dont newer versions of widocmm dont work or dont work very well with the software

Well that's the thing... with Blue Soliel I would expect this kind of a problem, but I have a dongle which uses the Widcomm Stack. I've tried everythign possible and yet no sound. I even tried it with another laptop which was using a Blue Soliel donle... tried doing it both ways... ie accessing sound on both ends... but nothing.

BUMP........

Mac A2DP as an input?

Hey, I'm not stranger to A2DP (Bluetooth Stereo) but I was wondering, the Mac supports A2DP output (to my headphones for example) but will it take it as an input?
I mean, when I pair my Pocket PC and my Mac, my phone only picks up Serial Port and Active Sync, but I imagine it's just because the bluetooth device is not showing it as a potential protocol.
Does anyone know of anyway I could achieve some form of A2DP input?

If our windows mobile device provides the bluetooth headset service you can connect to it as such, it'll show up in the device menu under the bluetooth menu bar icon.

Odd Concept- Using a phone as a BT headest for a computer.. With a wired headset.

Yes, that's exactly what I'm looking for. I lost my BT headset I used for online gaming, yet I have a perfectly fine Fuze that works well with my Plantronics headset that I use for my xbox.
Is it possible to use the fuze as a rx/tx passthrough unit for a wired headset?
Basically:
Wired headset > Fuze with Bluetooth turned on > Fuze synched to computer with bluetooth > Chatting with wired headset through the Fuze's bluetooth in online games.

Not odd at all
I would also love thing like this

I think if the bluetooth software on the computer
support audio gateway
and the x1 show up as supporting audio gateway bluetooth profile
when one bound it
then one can pick the x1 as soundcard to be used
in audio settings in control panel in pc windows
and it should work

Well I am using Bluesoleil on my laptop with Bluetooth v1.2 which actually connects well even to my A2DP dongle with full stereo sound even if it is not v2. But when I browse the services of my Raphael, the comp shows only Dial-Up Networking, Object Push and PAN... no Advanced Audio or Headset. Maybe I would need to configure the raphael somehow?

After doing some research, it would definitely have to be added in by way of some third party app. There are only two or three phones out there that support this. Essentially, a deal was made to where phone manufactures wouldn't include the Advanced Audio or Headset profile in their phones.
I don't see why someone couldn't make a program for this though.

I have been looking to do this with other HTCs for more than a year.
So far I can only say it's not possible as it's not supported by the WM BT stack.

[Q] Bluetooth Headset Problem

I want to use Spype on my G Tablet - bought myself a bluetooth headset. I can connect no problem (can even toggle it on and off with the home screen button application) it beeps indicating the connection.
But when I do calls I doesn't use the mic and speaker of the headset. Matter of fact it seems like it messed up with my audio setting because my built-in speakers don't seem to work anymore.
Any thoughts?

Sometimes I have the same issue. If you want speakers back, try disconnecting from the Bluetooth device. If that doesn't fix it, just reboot. I just posted another comment about the impossibility to use a bluetooth headset, not just for output, but for audio input also. I guess this is because there's no HSP or HFP bluetooth profiles implemented on the g tablet, just a2dp, which is why it just can stream audio to an output device, like a bluetooth stereo headset or car audio. BTW, I discovered this when trying to achieve exactly what you tried to do, making calls using Skype.

Want to connect BT headset + BT audio adapter + BT remote at the same time. Possible?

Hi!
the radio in my car doesn't have bluetooth (BT) so I need to use a BT audio adapter that I plug in the audio jack. THis would be the first device that I want to connect with my Honor 8. Because I don't want to switch tracks over the phone display, I would like to connect a bluetooth remote too that is attached to the steering wheel. FInally I would like to use a BT headset to make/answer calls while driving.
So there would be 3 BT devices that need to be connected to my phone at the same time...
Have any of you tried this? Should / can this work?
Thanks for your thoughts!

You can do that if you use 3 different protocol.
1. BT headset-phone audio
2.Bt aux-media audio(this give music audio and dedicated music control)
3. BT remote-have to be some kind of input type.

I haven't had any luck connecting to my car's Bluetooth with emui 5.1 so I wish you the best of luck bud! I'm back to the aux cord life until something gets fixed. Please keep us posted on how things work out for you.
