Problems with bluetooth - myTouch 4G General

the other day i bought bluetooth headphones from best buy. music is ok, but whenever i try to use it for voice or video calls,it doesn't work. for video it goes directly to speaker, and voice is regular. the same thing was happening with my first mt4g, the inferior screen one. could this be a bug, or a hardweare issue? i think it is a bug, cuz otherwise it wouldn't work at all, right?
can anyone out there help me with this dillema? it is really anoyng.
thank you in advance.

What rom are you on? I have only had voice bluetooth issues only on custom roms like IceGlacier, which is currently working ok.

Sound coming out from speakerphone and headset

at the same time.
Like I play a movie on TCPMP or some song in Windows Media, and I can hear the sound on my head set + on the speakerphone.
What's the point in listening to music with the headset when anyone can hear it.
Anyone experienced this problem and/or know the solution?
Thanks.
I have the same problem, can anybody know how to solve it?
I already try hardreset without success . Another think, if I restart the phone the bug disapear (for a time), but come back if I receive call or sms.
Any idea??
May be you must played with another player. I use Core Player and haven't problems with normal and BT headsets. Here link. Try it

gna, my phone is news :/ but may be I will investigate and try to clean contacts.....
EDIT: I think it's software bug too, because, why when a receive a call or sms, the sound switch between headset and speaker???
im having the same problem to. I cant listen to windows media player through headset. Sound is only coming out of speaker and I cant seem how to turn it over to the headset option. Calls seem to come through earpiece and will also work on BT.
Wath is your ROM version??
Have you already try a bluetooth headset??
Up, anybody have try with bluetooth headset? Do you still have the Fu**ing bug?
there is no such bug in Vox.
If you still think it is a software bug flash your device with some other ROM and if you are lucky that might help.
I use it with a bluetooth headset and its perfect.
according to me this is a hardware issue, and you are entitled to HTC support (flash back HTC original rom before you give it to service)

Finaly I upgrade to Windows 6.1 ROM, and... No more bug

Bluetooth Handsfree Connected, but no sound

Hi if someone can help me it would be much appreciated. I just bought a Touch Pro and everything is working fine....except for one really annoying issue.
Whenever I connect my bluetooth to a headset, it shows connected but no sound is coming out. The sound is muted. when connected to my Audi, I see that the phone has bars (shows connected and I can dial the phone), but when I make a call no sound. Similarly on my SE HBH-DS970 headset. The A2DP works perfectly, but when I make a call nothing.....I've searched google and through XDA and no solution.
Can someone suggest a solution? I've soft/hard reset the device already. If I should change Radio ROM which one would someone suggest that's stable? Thanks
If no one else has this problem, can anyone at least suggest to me if this sounds like a Hardware or software issue? If hardware I will return it, but if software I will try to find a solution. Like I said the phone connects to BT, but I just can't get handsfree to work. File transfers and A2DP work. Thanks
Just flashed to UK ROM and still no help....I've read some people having the same problems over at the Diamond thread...I'm the only one answering my own thread here hahaha....if anyone can help I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks.
Hi,
I occasionally had such an issue with my Parrot CK3100, but I did not get the time yet to investigate further. After the call was connected I did not hear anything, and I am not sure whether the other party could hear me.
On another day, the handsfree was working perfectly OK.
Cheers
Michael
Thanks for replying Michael....I'm at a loss and I tried all the suggestions posted. I hope it's a software issue...I'm going to buy a bluetooth headset tomorrow and see if that works. It's not the end of the world, but annoying since all my ppc, s60, BB, and UIQ phones prior to the TP have not had any such issues.
Do you think it's a software issue?
have you tried playing music?
Yes.....A2DP works perfectly....no problems whatsoever with file transfers either....I'm guessing either it's a software problem or the phone has a new bluetooth software that's not agreeing with my older SE headset, but the car is another issue. The Car is 2007 and I'm sure the Bluetooth software is not that old. I've tried Euro WWE and Asian WWE ROM and no go.....I'm going to try the Cingular ROM and see what happens.
Just another quick update....I tried 2 other different bluetooth headsets and still the same problem... for some reason the sound for handsfree will not come through...anyone know of registry hack possibly that will allow sound to come through?
May not be entirely related to your problem...
Mine is worst...whenever I have paired my Jabra or iTech BT headset, when the phone rings, 8/10 times the phone will auto pickup (and no I did not setup the phone to auto pickup) and the it will NOT connect to the bluetooth. Instead it will be just like an auto pickup and the sound will come thru the phone headset. This is driving me nuts!!!!

Has anyone been able to use Google Talk (video chat) with bluetooth?

The 2.3.4 update enabled video chat in the Google Talk application, but I cant seem to figure out how to use it with Bluetooth. I have checked everywhere and I honestly just cant figure it out. Has anyone been able to get this to work?? If so, how the heck did you do it? If it helps I am using an Icon Jawbone bluetooth headset.
Anyone? I can't be the only person experiencing this problem.
Bump again! I still havent been able to resolve this, so any help is appreciated.
I cannot, neither.
I think it's a issue from the Google Talk.
Its been a while since I updated this thread and I wanted to know if anyone had this working yet. There must be a workaround that sends all audio out via Bluetooth....
Bump! I am still hopefully this will get resolved. Please comment if you know how to do this.
I assume that other audio such as music from apps like Pandora come through your bluetooth. If you can listen to music and games via Bluetooth one would think that it would work on video chat also. I could have swore I did this but it may have been another video chat app like tango or qik.
I'll try later to see if it was in fact GTalk or another app.
Have you searched the Market for bluetooth apps?
https://market.android.com/details?...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5iZWRvaWcuQlRtb25vIl0. this app will direct sound to bt headset but nor microphone. GTALK should still be usable, as long as the phone is in front of you and not tucked away in the pocket.

Yeah, its crazy actually. All other programs send bluetooth audio through the headset by default as soon as I connect it. It would appear as if Google Talk someone disabled this functionality.

Hmm, that is a good start but really it would need to be two way for it to be practical.
same problem,
but: I dont need video
I tried 3rd party apps with BT support
-FRING
-TALKATONE
Fring: has poor quality, but every call connected succesfully,
Talkatone: call is perfect, but speaker and microphone working both only in 1 from 50x.
Gtalk 2 routing nothing to BT for me
If anyone found or will find any solution for gtalk call via bluetooth headset stable.. please write it.. THX a lot
agreed, this is very frustrating.

[Q] How do I get Google Voice recognition to work with bluetooth media audio enabled?

Hi,
I've got an interesting problem and was hoping someone here knows the solution.
I'm running CleanRom 5.6 on my Galaxy S3 I use the built in Android swyping keyboard, and it in turn uses Google Voice recognition. I like it because it shows what it is typing as I say it, versus Swype's delayed typing of voice recognized text.
Here is the problem. If my Jawbone bluetooth headset is set to media audio, then the Google Voice red button never turns red, and I can't use it. If I a) turn Bluetooth off then it works, or B) if I turn off media audio to Bluetooth while leaving call audio enabled, then the voice recognition works.
But all of this is a pain in the ass, and I'd really like to be able to use the Google voice recognition with Bluetooth and media audio left on.
So far the only kluge fix I have found is to hit the volume up or down key on the phone, which for some reason, instantly activates the magic red button. This is better than what some people suggest, turning on the Touch Sounds (which makes an annoying noise every time you touch the screen.)
Has anyone figured out a workaround for this problem? Please don't tell me to turn media audio off, as I use it a lot to listen to podcasts. Maybe there's a hacked version of the android keyboard that I could use. Or perhaps it is something in CleanRom, although I doubt it.
Believe it or not, I do a lot of writing on my phone and would really like to fix this problem. Thanks for your help.

Thank you for starting this thread, hopefully someone figures it out and responds, but your question has already been helpful to me:victory: I only use voice typing when I am in the car, with the phone connected to the bluetooth radio for media only, so I didnt even realize it only occurred in that situation, plus I intend to try your volume trick as well.:fingers-crossed: Previously, I had to start-cancel-start-cancel-start until it would work. Not exactly hands-free.
I also run Clean Rom, specifically CleanRom 6.0 R2. I also had it on my previous version of CleanRom, so it might be worthwhile to try a different rom flavor entirely, and see if the problem is still there. If anyone has this problem that is not on CleanRom, speak up!

Yup, I have the same issue. Plantronics BT earpiece with Media and Voice. Cleanrom 5.6 R2.
Volume rocker switch trick works, but, that really isn't a good alternative for car operation.

Thanks for that link....will try it with my in car bluetooth since I had this same problem with Waze hearing me when trying to voice a report. Sometimes it worked but mostly it failed.
Update: Works!
same problem here! You MUST HAVE THE TOUCH SOUNDS ON IN YOUR SOUND SETTINGS> UGHHHH
It works after that, Dumb.

No voice during calls when switching from Bluetooth

Hey guys, like in my other post, I recently installed lineageos and then Aosp Extended .
In both, I am having an other issue. When I am in call using Bluetooth , like in my car, and I switch the audio to my phone speaker, like to get more privacy, I can still hear the other side, but the other side can't hear me. And if I switch back to Bluetooth, still the other side can't hear me.
Is this a known issue? I have searched but I haven't found anything. Maybe I am not sure what terms to search for exactly.
Thanks!
