[Q] Listen to music and podcasts on Mono BT headset - Android Apps and Games

Hi friends,
I own a HD2 running Android and the only thing that I couldn´t find a solution was to listen to my music and podcasts though my Nokia BH-104 mono bluetooth headset.
On WinMo I used a very simple program which gives me the option to stream the audio to the BT earpiece or not. But I haven´t find anything like this to Android.
Am I missing something or it´s not possible to do this?
Thank you!

Nobody else has this problem?

I had the same problem, I use to use a regular bt earpiece through my winmo phone but on my Hero I had to get the new moto h17 earpiece to listen to music or in my case Howard Stern through the earpiece, On an android phone the earpiece needs to be A2dp.

Oh, what a shame! =/

My friends, I opened this thread, however nobody was able to help me. Although I have performed a deep search on google and I was able to find a program that just does what I ever wanted!!!
It´s called Super BT Mono Froyo Pro and can be found on the Android Market. It costs only $2.99 and it´s worth each cent.
The only advice I can give is: before disconecting the Mono BT earpice/headset, open Taskiller and shut down the program. Otherwise, Android will crash and reboot.
Anyway, now I can listen to my podcasts!!! Yahoooooo

Can I use Bluetooth to listen to mp3 and other audio on MDA?

Hi guys
I've not used a bluetooth headset with my MDAIII before so please excuse a few simple questions!
I have a motorbike and use Autocom to commect to my phone, mp3 player, radio etc etc. Trouble is - lots of wires!
My question:
Can I use the MDAIII & bluetooth headset not only for the phone function but to listen to media player or listen to a film etc etc, or is it exclusively for the phone?

The guys here are desperately trying to find ways to make that happen. Unfortunately, no news yet.
as far as i read then you can install vidcomm bluetooth stack and get the music part working but then it will not work as phone headset
or you can stick with the normal stack and only use it for phone headset
i just use this

then i can do both
and ditch the dongle if
anybody else solve the issue

Bluetooth headset and my Fuze

I have a motorola h780 (regular mono headset). I'm unable to listed on audio from the music player through my bluetooth headset. My wife has an LG Incite and the same headset and she is able to do this. Is the Fuze really lacking this ability? I was able to do the same thing on my Motorola Q with an H500 headset. I appreciate any help.

this worked for me, just copy the files over to your fuze and run the bluetooth toggle app and it should automaticlly connect.
Awesome! This works great. Just curious as to why the device will not stay in headset mode. I wonder if A2DP requires that you have an A2DP headset to keep it on? Either way I’m happy with this program.
How to do?
iris: pardon a WM rookie; I copied the files to a folder in the FUZE in the Applications space, the folder titled "BT Audio", but cannot find a way to run them. How do I make this an executable?
Also, what I am trying to do is listen to the audio track of a WMV movie that I have successfully ported. I can hear the sound through the speaker (barely), but want to hear with a regular, mono BT headset (Plantronics Voyager 510). The BT dialog shows it as "hand free", and I don't know of a way to assign it also as an audio headset. Will this program do that?

GPS voices over bluetooth

I have an HTC Touch Diamond running WM6.1 Pro, and TomTom 7.450. I also have a Pioneer CD-BTB200 bluetooth handsfree unit in the car offering A2DP support.
The setup works really well as a hands free phone. When the phone rings, the stereo will switch to the 'phone' source so the music is muted. When the call is finished it will switch back to the previous source and continue playing music.
As it supports A2DP, I can also play music and system sounds, including the TomTom voices thought the car stereo, as long as the stereo is set to 'bt audio' as its source. In which case it works great, but I am limited to the audio that I can play from the phone.
What I would like is to be able to listen to music on the stereo, ie; radio or cd or whatever, then when TomTom issues some directions, for the stereo to play the directions and then return to its previous state. This is obviously possible because thats how it works when the phone rings.
Does anyone know of any software that could do what I am looking for?
Or would anyone fancy attempting a little app that would do something like this? I'm assuming that if the TomTom voices could be played in the same way as an incoming phone call, then when TomTom issues a direction, the stereo would change to 'phone' the direction would sound, the the stereo would revert back to its previous source.
I would pay a few £/$/€ for something like this, and I'm sure a load of other people would too,
Phew. Sorry for the long post.
Anyone? Or am I asking for something that deosnt exist?
The trouble is that the only way to listen to tomtom through bluetooth is through a2dp, which is always on until you turn it off. Calls dont use a2dp, and are automatically switched on when needed which is what your handsfree unit detects.
One workaround would be to play your music on your phone, and then tomtom will just speak over it, but it means all your cds would have to be ripped to your phone, and your radio streamed over the internet.
Try this,(BTAudio)-it sends all audio via the bluetooth-I assume that the
A2DP stream will run over it.
If not try A2DPtoggle (but I think that is A2DP only)
You have to start the chosen BTaudio app first (make sure BT is already paired and on),then run any other programs.

Actually the only ones PPC's that are doing what you like to do are Asus P525, Asus P535 and LG KS20 because all three are working on Broadcom BT stack.
Why Microsoft still with their crap BT??? ... Who knows!!!

[Q] Audio to non A2DP headset

Hi,
I'm wondering if there is any way to stream audio music and/or FM radio from Windows Phone 7 (I have the HTC HD7) to a non A2DP Bluetooth headset (I have the Jabra EasyGO).
It seems that I can only make and receive calls with it.
I've searched all over the place (and web) and cannot find a way to do that.
The only way is to get a new Bluetooth headset with A2DP capability?
Is there is a workaround, please let me know.
Thanks.
I don't know of one. As far as I know, the Headset profile is mono-channel only (plus another channel for the mic) anyhow, and probably quite low bandwidth, so it would likely sound awful.
Thanks for your answer GoodDayToDie.
But I don't mind for quality... Actually I'm not interested to listen for audio.
I just want, for example, to hear drive directions when I'm driving using navigation software (Navigon) instead of hearing from the loudspeaker.
Hmm... I thought the phone *would* use Headset profile for driving directions. Weird. I find the WP7 implementation to be so bad that I prefer to keep using a 4-year-old Garmin Nuvi instead, but I could have sworn I tested it and it came over the BT (and my car only has Headset, not A2DP). Maybe poke around in Settings?
Alternatively, if your car has Aux In, you could use a ripping cable (double-ended headphone cord, they're very cheap) and then the phone will play instructions over the cable into the car's stereo. This is also a great way to use the phone's music player, including Zune Pass if you have it, to play music in the car (I do this all the time). It uses less battery than having Bluetooth transmitting constantly would anyhow.

Podcasts on Parrot??

Not sure where this question should go, some maybe someone could have a look and move it for me please?
I have an older Parrot handsfree car kit that was already built into my car when I bought it.
It works fine with android phones.. currently a poco x3 pro.. so I can make and recieve calls and it all happens through nice speakers I can hear while driving..
Great...
Lately someone called me on with WhatsApp while I was driving and I was amazed, not only did it auto answer but the call worked just fine.
That got me thinkin and I've now been able to get my daily standup call on Teams going in the car.. which is a godsend.
So, now that I realised that software calls other than just phonecalls work with the Parrot .. I 'm wondering why I cant get Player FM to play podcasts through the handsfree?
I don't have bluetooth in the builtin stereo and the cars dash is only moulded for the stock stereo. But it would be brill to be able to listen to something other than rubbish radio ads all the way home..
So I'm just wondering whats different between media player apps on the phone and 'phone' or communication apps? What is it that allows WhatsApp to send sound through the handsfree but not PlayerFM (or Pulsar) ??
Is it a routing thing? A configuration thing?
Is it anything I could change easily?
Thanks
