Once my Bluetooth Headset is connected to my Prophet, all my notification sounds come through my Bluetooth Headset instead of the phone speaker.
The sound for normal incoming call works as it should though (through the speaker).
The only way i've found how to solve this problem, is to uncheck the "Wireless Stereo" option under:
Settings > Connections > Bluetooth > i.Tech Clip R35 > Partnership Settings
And then when I want to listen to music through the Windows Media Player, I have to do the opposit.
So, my two questions...
1. Is there a way to map notification sounds to always use the phone's speaker? (or)
2. Is there a small shortcut / Today-plugin that can switch "Wireless Stereo" on/off in one click?
Cheers!

Mortscript could be used for to create a script that would toggle Wireless Stereo" & then a shortcut to this script could be put on the today screen or mapped to a button.
Do a search on scripts for wifi as many people have done this type of thing already.
Also have a look at this link, might be of some use.

Thanks Mr. B.
Interesting idea.
But it seems like the VJVolubilis only supports BlueTooth on/off at this stage, and not switching a BlueTooth service on/off.
And from what I understand the "agon" command passes the audio through the "Headset" service of a BlueTooth device.
Well, I solved it by creating a Mortscript...
It's not beautiful, but it works!

It may look ugly in notepad but the beauty is watching it work.
Have fun with your scripts, its a useful tool.
@overone, can u share the script???

Yes, sure! If you promise not to laugh?
I'm sure there's tons of ways to make this better, but I never used this script language before, and I didn't want to waste an eternity fixing my problem.
Removing the sleeps would be the first things on my mind for an improvement.
As for the shortcut "BluetoothSettings.lnk"; it just a simple shortcut that opens the bluetooth setting panel.
And YES, it's hardcoded to be located in Program Files...
Code:
# Open Bluetooth Settings
Run("\Program Files\BluetoothSettings.lnk")
WaitForActive("Settings",5)
# Go to i.Tech Clip R35
SendDown
SendCR
Sleep(1000)
# Mark/Un-Mark Wireless Stereo
SendDown
SendDown
SendCR
Sleep(1000)
# Exit and Save
SendRightSoft
Sleep(2500)
SendOK
That worked wonderfully for me, and is the only solution I have found so far to automatically turn on my BT Stereo Audio headset.
Download Mortscript from http://www.sto-helit.de
Create a new file ToggleBTStereoAudio.mscr in any folder on your PPC with the following text in it
Code:
# Open Bluetooth Settings
Run("\Program Files\BluetoothSettings.lnk")
WaitForActive("Settings",5)
# Go to i.Tech Clip R35
SendDown
SendCR
Sleep(1000)
# Mark/Un-Mark Wireless Stereo
SendDown
SendDown
SendCR
Sleep(1000)
# Exit and Save
SendRightSoft
Sleep(2500)
SendOK
Create a new file "\Program Files\BluetoothSettings.lnk" with the following in it
Code:
23#ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,23,1
To toggle your BT Stereo simply click on the ToggleBTStereoAudio.mscr file. You will be able to see the mortscript run and toggle the stereo audio for the device.
There's a program called A2DPToggle - freeware
Just came across it myself and it does the job very well - has a Today plugin that can even start A2DP then launch your media player as well as other BT management and speakerphone toggle, or an app that just toggles Wireless Stereo when run
The homepage for it is at http://www.teksoftco.com/index.php?section=freeware
So... finally got to test out the bluetooth A2DP with my Sensation and I was very disappointed. Sound quality is like listening 64kbps MP3 :-(
After googling and searching this forum I found that this is not the first Android phone which has the issue, but so far didn't any solution on how to "fix" it.
Allthough I did some digging in the filesystem and found that /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf hold these values:
Code:
# Configuration file for the audio service
# This section contains options which are not specific to any
# particular interface
# NOTE: Enable=Sink means that bluetoothd exposes Sink interface for remote
# devices, and the local device is a Source

Disable=Headset,Gateway,Source
# Do not require master role for incoming connections
Master=false
# SCO routing. Either PCM or HCI (in which case audio is routed to/from ALSA)
# Defaults to HCI
#SCORouting=PCM
# Automatically connect both A2DP and HFP/HSP profiles for incoming
# connections. Some headsets that support both profiles will only connect the
# other one automatically so the default setting of true is usually a good
# idea.
#AutoConnect=true
# Headset interface specific options (i.e. options which affect how the audio
# service interacts with remote headset devices)
#[Headset]
# Set to true to support HFP (in addition to HSP only which is the default)

#MaxConnections=1
# Just an example of potential config options for the other interfaces
[A2DP]
SBCSources=1
MPEG12Sources=0
[AVRCP]
InputDeviceName=AVRCP
But since there's no root (only temp root) I'm not allowed to edit the file. I'm just wondering if changing these values would make the quality better:
#AutoConnect=true
(I'm having issues to auto-connect to my A2DP receiver, have to manually connect every time)
#SCORouting=PCM
(don't know what this is, but sounds like it's related to compression used to transfer the audio?)
SBCSources=1
MPEG12Sources=0
(maybe disabling the SBCSources and enabling the MPEG12Sources would force the A2DP to use MPEG12 so there would not be any re-encoding?)
I'm really disappointed with my device when coming to this. My six years old Nokia was capable to play music via A2DP with full quality.
I have two receivers, one is LiquidAux from Kensington and one is "OEM" receiver from local electronics store. Both sounds like crap with Sensation
I have to agree, however, I have had mixed or rather inconsistant results, perhaps a bt3 a2dp could improve quality? I dont know. Other HTC devices I owned have same issue, Sensation via headphones however is simply second to none! not even my ipod sounds as good, not nearly!

I think the case here is that the audio is re-compressed to SBC with very low bitrate. It also seems to re-encode MP3-files even the receiver is capable to receive them directly without re-encoding.
Can't believe this is possible in 2011, like I sais, half decade old Nokia can handle the A2DP flawlessly and my brand new 550€ "MULTIMEDIA SUPERPHONE" (quote from HTC's website) can't
That's strange, I don't usually use a2dp, I've opted to use Btmono with my old bt headset (better battery life) and I haven't had a single issue with calls, alerts or music/videos...the only "downside" is mono audio, but the app says it all

You can't really compare a mono headset to professional Hi-Fi system which I use outputting the music to my ears.
I know that Bluetooth ain't a HiFi solution in the first place, but it still would be nice to listen some random music from my phone while driving. Now the quality is so bad that it's not even usable and I know this is not normal, A2DP is capable of transferring audio with decent quality (my other devices can do it).
I've posted about this several times but never got any interest. I'm glad it is not just me. The quality is shockingly bad on Sensation A2DP. My last HTC device (Legend) had varying A2DP quality with certain stock ROM updates, but it was never as bad as this. The difference in quality between the Sensation and, for example, a Sony A series walkman is staggering.
With a good bluetooth headset, A2DP can actually be better quality than a cabled connection (especially with the crappy d2a and amp components on most phones).

need that 2.0 to 3.0 compatibility fixed, pronto...
the sensation is bluetooth 3.0 and I have 2.0 stereo headphones. They worked great with the hd2. Now the sensation is mucking it up. I can hear music and movies great. I just can't use it to talk like I used to - which is my primary reason to have it. Need a fix or an explanation...
Odd, my Motorolla S9-HD's sound fantastic with the Sensation. Just today I listened first to some music using the paid Pandora, then a few MP3's, then a podcast while cleaning up the yard and lawn. Bass was deep and lows/mids were very good, from what I could tell. Maybe the S9-HD's have a chip to make it sound better or something, dunno.

what about talking on it? does the person on the other end hear an echo?
I've noticed very bad A2DP quality as well. With my N1, I would play music all day through the same Bluetooth receiver and not notice anything. With the Sensation everything is extremely 'muddy'. It sounds exactly it is being transcoding in to SBC, instead of using the mp3 passthrough stream which is what my N1 was doing. I'm just assuming this since I can't figure out a way to verify other than the crappy sounding audio now... This is using a Sound-Fly BT receiver.
Now, I also have a Motorola S10-HD a2dp headset and both the N1 and the Sensation sound just fine there..
My only guess is that the Sensation is not able to establish an mp3 channel with the SoundFly-BT (like the N1 can), but it can to the S10-HD.
BTW, regular calls using the HFP profile seem just fine.

I had the same problem - I got music, but phone audio didn't work.
I went into Settings>Wireless & Networks>Bluetooth Settings, long-pressed on the bluetooth device I was using, selected options, unchecked both "Phone" and "Media", then re-checked them both.
After that, I got both A2DP media audio, as well as phone headset functionality.
Hope this helps!
Hmm. I'm not having a muddy audio issue with mine. It sounds exactly the same as my N1 with Stock/CM6/CM7, the only difference is I did not have to apply a hacked up audio.conf to keep it from skipping all the time as I do with the N1.
I'm using a FIPO A2DP audio reciver plugged into an ipod cable. The handsfree goes to the vehicles OEM adapter.
I've yet to try actual phone calls though. It does occasionally loose the handsfree connection, something that never happend with the N1, so something is dfnitly amiss.
I was just about to start a thread on this very subject. I'm glad I'm not the only one having issues with A2DP. I stream podcasts all day at work & the connection is terrible. Sound quality is fine, but it skips & stutters like crazy no matter what headset I use(though my S9s are the worst. They've sucked since I bought them & I literally threw them at the wall yesterday in a fit of rage). I even bought a new headset today & it's a BIT better, but still spotty. I think it might just be all the EM radiation at work(I work in a computer shop) b/c it isn't nearly as bad at home, but either way it's super annoying.
For such an expensive phone, problems like this really piss me off >:|
lol...Geez you guys should at least thank HTC. On the G2x, the damn BT stack is a joke. One minute the BT is connected and the next it is LOCKED up. The only way to rectify the problem is a reboot. I for one can not do without BT. I hate holding phone up to my ears.... I would take a muddled sound any day to a not so good BT stack that you don't even know when it locks up or just plain does NOT work.
The Sensation seems capable of great audio over BT - when using my Belkin AirCast in the car, the audio is crystal clear and free of drop-outs or other problems.
With my Jabra BT8010 stereo headset, however, the drop-outs are frequent and annoying.
Don't know if it's the receiver's BT abilities (2.0 vs. 3.0), power levels, or what, but the Sensation is capable of amazing audio over BT, but only with the right devices it seems...
It's truly amazing how good it sounds in my car over bluetooth, but I've gone back to using the wired headset while walking.

could you elaborate on the drop out? Does it disconnect and reconnect? i hope not.

By "drop-out" I mean the audio cuts out, then continues. There are "blank" portions in the playback, like someone muted the sound for a split-second.
The BT stays connected.
thanks as long as it doesn't hangup
BTW, any issues with the bluetooth driver that you can think of? G2x one is just plain BAD!

I haven't had any problems at all with the bluetooth stack - no disconnections or crashes.
Yeah coming from my N1 this is a real bummer. Mine just has a lot of crackling. I'm playing it through my 2011 subaru's BT audio.
For those that researched other Android phones with this problem, were they Sense phones? Because I'm pretty sure HTC doesn't use the same BT stuff that stock android does. I know that my friend's have had trouble pairing their sense phones but then flashed an AOSP rom like cyanogen and the problem was resolved. So maybe something similar can be done here once we get S-OFF
Edit 10/28/2012: I tried replacing all files in /system/etc/bluetooth from the ones from CM9 and CM10. It still does not work. So fail for me. I also tried solution recommended in post # 2. No go for me.
Background: I have a 2012 Honda CRV and SGS2 Skyrocket (obviously!!) I prefer to use stock rooted deodexed roms with all AT&T bloatware removed. Bluetooth worked perfectly with Gingerbread ROMS.
Issue: As soon as I upgraded to ICS (leaks , Rogers and real deal from AT&T) I started having bluetooth Auto Connect issues. The problem was simple. My phone would never auto-connect to Car Audio. As you know there are two profiles (Settings -> Bluetooth -> HandFreeLink -> Settings) Phone and "Media Audio". Media Audio always autoconnected meaning I could play music etc from my phone to car car stereo. "Phone" never autoconnected. I always had to manually connect.
Debugging: I tried various ROMS hoping something would work. Finally when I tried CM9 everything worked!! Later when CM10 became stable, I tried that as well and it worked. When I say worked it means BOTH phone and Media audo profile autoconnected
Summary:
Bluetooth works perfectly in 1) All GB ROMS, All CM9 base ROMS and all CM10 base ROMS. Does not work in any stock AT&T/Rogers ICS ROMS
Possible Solution??: I tried to figure out what can be the issue and here is what I see
/system/etc/bluetooth/auto_pairing.conf is different in CM9 and Stock ROMS. Here is the difference
Stock ROM
// Blacklisting by Exact Name:
ExactNameBlacklist=Motorola IHF1000,i.TechBlueBAND,X5 Stereo v1.3,KML_CAN,SYNC,UConnect

To me this would explain why I was facing problems. The bluetooth connection Honda CRV establishes is called HandsFreeLink. For some reasons connections with that name are blacklisted.
Questions:
1) Is this really the root cause of the problem?
2) Will changing the BT connection or fixing /system/etc/bluetooth/auto_pairing.conf fix the issue.
Next steps
1) I will try to run a test. I will rename phone bluetooth connection from "HandsFreeLink" to somethng else and see if that fixes the problem.
I am not confident it will work because some bluetooth address are also blacklisted and AT&T stock list is larger than CM9 so there is a chance that my HondaCRV BT address might be in there. I will report results of test tomorrow.
2) Can a Dev using ICS stock as base replace the conf file and provide a new build? I don't have linux and I noticed several overwriites while I unzipped the CWM zip file indicating that there are symlinks in there and I need Linux to build the new CWM file with file changed

I appreciate the response. I was hoping there was going to be more different than the little excerpt at the bottom :-/ Maybe it is just going to be an issue with uConnect in dodge cars. Unfortunately I have no other car to test with.
Hi guys
I have an issue with my new bluetooth headset. I bought this Arctic P253BT headset to use on my Huawei Y300 (rooted with FusionX rom). It works properly on media stream. But when i start a call, despite i set bluetooth as output the audio comes out on phone speakers. Also headset integrated microphone doesn't work.
I tried the headset on iphone and it works properly. Then i tried on a Samsung Galaxy ace and it doesn't work at all.. all audio is on phone speakers. However... i didn't post this in the accessories forum because i think this is a software problem. I think that I need to change some settings to redirect call audio stream on bluetooth... so i need your nerd help
Noob's thanks
Update: I found out that the phone redirect correctly the bluetooth A2DP to headset, but the bluetooth mono stream is redirected on phone speakers... Can someone help?
Re-update:laugh:
This are the two files that i think should be important..

# For instance, "primary" corresponds to audio.primary.<device>.so.
# The "primary" module is mandatory and must include at least one output with
# AUDIO_OUTPUT_FLAG_PRIMARY flag.
# Each module descriptor contains one or more output profile descriptors and zero or more
# input profile descriptors. Each profile lists all the parameters supported by a given output
# or input stream category.
# The "channel_masks", "formats", "devices" and "flags" are specified using strings corresponding
# to enums in audio.h and audio_policy.h. They are concatenated by use of "|" without space or "\n".

Please someone help
I face the same problem (Y300, FusionX, Philips (mono) Headset).
There is a workaround, which is kind of annoying though : You can pair the bluetooth headset, then make a call. As usual, the call is still using the phone. If you switch to the bluetooth settings during the call and select your headset, it should show a "phone" profile with a checkbox. Disabling the checkbox and re-enabling it will correctly route the current call to your headset.
If anyone knows a real fix, I would be very happy to know and test it
