I am just about to buy a motorola bluetooth kit to be built into my vehicle - the spec says it is bluetooth 2.0 is the sensation backwards compatible ??
im bothered if halfords fit it that it wont pair / work ... im not bothered about streaming music as i have an aux in port on my focus but want basic telephony
thanks
chris
yes bluetooth is, the voice will work but unless the 2.0 has the a2dp profile it won't stream music.

Is it possible to use a bluetooth headset for ALL audion not just the phone? I already use Pocket Skype but I want to be able to use my bluetooth headset - since it doesn't consider the Skype to be a phone call - how can I make it use the headset for all sounds produced by the device?
All help and advice appreciated. All good advice and help appreciated more. All useful advice and help... ah, now we're talking!

think people have been able to get headsets working for normal audio using the broadcom or vidcomm bluetooth stack insted of the ms one
but it also seems that those bluetooth stacks dont support the headset profile so people cant use their headset for phoning anymore
Interesting catch 22 - phone bluetooth or other sounds bluetooth - but not all sounds bluetooth.
Isn't it silly things like this that make a great device irritating?!(Rhetorical)
yes it's silly
guess it comes down to ms not liking bluetooth which they dident invent themselfs so their stack is kinda thin
not sure what vidcomm and the rests's excuse is
i personaly bougth the bluetake iPhono headset which have a dongle which makes it possible for me to use my headset to work with both
phone and music

If what you say is correct, then there is a bit of a conundrum. The telephone operates via the bluetooth stack - so how does the gps receiver connect? There is apparently a way for the PC element of the device to use bluetooth, so why not audio?
I think using an external Btooth transmitter id a bit OTT. This is a software fix requirement.

Hi, I am thinking to buy the Bletake Bluetooth I-Phono BT420Ex + BT430EX with my Qtek 2020 / Xda II, And I want to know it will work properly... my ROM it´s 2.20CHS.
And if yours answer it´s positive, how?
You connet the audio dongle to the output of the pda and the headset with the pda by BT?
Thanks
yes as bluetooth headset it's supported
and the xda dont have to support the dongle
as far as the xda see it the dongle is just a wired headset
the dongle take care of everything wireless
heck if you want you can connect the dongle to something else
and still have it as bluetooth headset for the xda at the same time
when you get a call the headset disable the audio from the dongle and act as a normal bluetooth headset
Hi,
according to this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=245461#245461 , I assume that you have this bt headphone and you have used it with satisfactory results...
Now, I still have a few doubts :
1) Do you connect the dongle to the pda and use it to listen music?
2) You use the bt manager of the pda as a handsfree?
3) Or do you use the dongle with the pda to both listen to music, and talk on the phone?
4) Or do you never use the dongle at all...?
5) Did you upgrade the bt manager of the pda? If this is true, where can I do it in the forum?
Thanks for all...
1 yes
2 yes
3 only needed when i listen to music
i just use bluetooth tools
and the org ms bluetooth stack
if one have a bluetooth stack which support a2dp
the dongle is not needed at all
Thanks!!
Many thanks for your patient and reply.

Is there any way to use my android phone (htc sapphire / magic) as bluetooth a2dp client / sink?
I don't want to use a2dp to stream the sound from the phone (server) to a headset (client), instead i want to use my notebook (server) to stream the sound right to my phone (client) as i could connect my headphones and use it as awesome bluetooth headphones which are quite expensive
does anybody know how it might work?
thanks a lot

I'm interested to this feature to query another device phonebook.

Hi i recently was wandering if it is possible if i could stream music over the radio from my music from my phone. I had an add on for my ipod nano a while back called an itrip but i was wandering if my phone (droid x) had something in it that it could use to stream music over the radio in the proximity of myself. My friend said that it is possible to use bluetooth to stream it over the radio but i don't know if that is true? If anyone was willing to make that app im sure people would love it. Is it possible?
Sure. If your car has BT built into the receiver. Or you could use an FM transmitter (basically the same thing as your itrip) through the headphone jack on your phone. Or your car stereo might have a straight aux plug-in that you can take directly from the headphone jack on your phone. Lots of options, really.
but is it possible for the phone to transmit through something it has inside to transmit it to the fm radio?
I believe that would be hardware based. I've had a few SEs and Nokias that had FM Transmitters. I think only /some/ Android phones even have FM receivers.
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
Couldn't find this anywhere?
I have not seen anything in the specs stating that it is supported...does anyone know for sure?
It streams music just fine for me to my car and my bluetooth headphones.
Yes, it does. I think all Android phones have this capability. I know my G1 did too. I use it every day with my Nexus S.
1st) Yes. The Nexus S does support A2DP. I already used it.
2nd) No. It is not guarenteed to work with every android phone as the bluetooth chip must support the A2DP profile.

should also be mentioned, not every BT stereo headset or car audio, or any other sort of BT player are A2DP capable, some have limited or no functions at all
i've encountered a few bad devices that simply stream the audio, but it wont provide any remote control feature at all
so good luck

Agree with AllGamer, I use a Sennheiser headset which does voice calls pretty well, but it can't do any other voice transmissions if it is through skype, gtalk etc or any music/podcast content. And, the box also doesn't specify A2DP support.
On the other side, I have a BlueAnt headset which does all types of calls on my nexus or atrix pretty well, with all types I mentioned above.
Good Luck!!!
Hi all
Having got a new HTC ONE I have decided to use my sensation as a mapping/gps device.
I have got tomtom for android on it and in th epast I have just used the phones internal speaker.
My car stereo has a aux in jack so I was wondering if it is possible to get a Bluetooth adaptor to play the audio into the car stereo
But ( there always has to be a but) can I stream music at the same time?
ideally I would like the tomtom to cut out the music but I don't think it out puts the correct profile but even if it just plays over the top that could work.
is this possible or if not would it work via a cabled connection?
thanks
