[Q] Bluetooth Working? - Samsung Infuse 4G

Did I read someplace that bluetooth is NOT working with this ROM?
I use my phone with my car hands free system and this would be a deal breaker for me if it doesn't work.
I've tried it with a bluetooth headset and that doesn't seem to work.
False alarm (duh). I've got bluetooth working just fine now by redoing pairing setup.
Also, the ROM that is having the bluetooth problems is the CM7, not Infusion. Thanks for looking anyway.

[Q] Captivate/Galaxy S Music through Bluetooth

Is there a way I can play Music through my bluetooth Headset? I have a Nokia BH200 and the PS3 Bluetooth (1st Gen). If done some searching and I still cant figure it out. Is there an app or something that I need? I tried the long press on the device under bluetooth and clicked options but didn't work.
Thanks in advance

Your bluetooth headset need to support A2DP profile.
There's two ways.
The first way, the bluetooth headpiece has to support A2DP. Most at this point do not. If it does, however, you can set it up in the bluetooth devices to be either a bluetooth headset OR a bluetooth headphone.
The second way is with a program called Super BT Mono Froyo. There is a paid and a free version. Not sure what the difference is, but I'm sure some research on your part can take care of that.
With Super BT Mono Froyo, there is simply an on button and an off button. Lacks luster, but it works pretty well for me. Also, it bypasses the need for your headpiece to have A2DP.
Thats good info man thanks ill give it a whirl. Do you have to have Froyo to use the app you mentioned? Im rooted using cognition. Thanks again

Buy a BT headset with A2DP support. There are a lot of them out there, some look just like normal BT headset like my Jabra BT8040.
A2DP is the only official way to get music out of any phone.
Really? I found the program on another forum about two months ago, I've been using it on my Captivate with all the roms I've tried, no problems at all. So far I've had Cognition, Cognadian Bacon, and Axura, and Super Mono Froyo worked with all the Froyo roms.

I said offical way. Means you can use with any phone, current of future, smart or dumb, out of box without any other software. Of course you can keep try finding an app for whatever your current phone is. But when you switch to a new phone running different OS, you will have to find new app (may or maynot exist).

I should have thanked the other post, but that app worked just fine. I just wish I could use this with my iPod instead.

GPS Navigation with Bluetooth headset

I have CM7 RC1.
I would like to use a Bluetooth headset (probably A2DP) to
1) make/receive phone calls
2) navigate with TTS instructions from GPS programs such as
a) TeleNav Navigation
b) CoPilot
c) Google Navigation
3) Use powerAmp to hear to stereo music while working out (optional)
If I can find a headset that can do both 1 and 2 I'll be more than happy
I want to use CM7 though I don't want to lose overclocking capability and the cool CM7 software
Thanks a lot I don't want to spend hundreds in testing products
Yesterday I bought Motorola SD-10 or something like that is a stupidly bad item

Right now A2DP is not working with CM7. I hear it works with EB though, maybe try that ROM for a while?
App: SuperBT Mono Froyo- free or paid with widget.
Kind regards

I haven't been able to get super bt mono to work on my g2x. I've used it on all of my other phones as I use it to listen to podcasts at work and I need one ear open to listen for cars, dogs, and crackheads. I've tried an a2dp headset (jabra stone2) but it has awful battery life. 1 hour compared to 9 with just a regular headset. Has anyone found a a workaround or an a2dp with great battery life? BTW I am stock at the moment.
Also, what is with the headset Jack? I tried using one with a Michael that was bundled with a cheap Nokia and it didn't work..... anyone have any recommendations for a corded headset preferably mono?

Hello !
It is strange with super froyo-there are many Force close on my devices.- but it works.-With my new Headphone- the jabra stone2 it works without the super froyo app - I don´t know why the other - plantronics 925 and jabra supreme didn´t work. ( onla with super froyo)
-The battery life of the stone is not very good- but i like the whole rest of it.
kind regards
GANDALF
Yes the stone 2 is a2dp (it is for stereo Bluetooth). I manage to get maybe an hour and 15 minutes or so. How about you?

Navigation turn by turn voice to bluetooth?

I tried to use google navigation with my Jawbone bluetooth headset and the voice of the lady that gives you turn by turn directions are coming out of the phone speaker, not through my headset.
is there a setting I'm missing to get it to come through the headset instead of the phone speaker?
I checked in the google navigation and found nothing, nor in the settings > wireless & network > bluetooth...
Thanks in advance.
can anyone help me out with this?
thanks.

oh... well that's not very convenient...
that also explains why music don't go to my headset either... huh.
you know, actually, that's kind of stupid now I think about it.
who the heck at HTC decide on that? I mean, who drives with a stereo bluetooth headset on? it's illegal!
speaker on our phones aren't that loud to begin with. having the turn by turn direction come trough on the headset would have been beneficial...
go figure.
I hope they add an option so this is possible on the update(if we ever get it).
anyway, thank you very much for the info.

yeah, I just realized that...
stupid if you ask me. who the heck drives around with a stereo headset...
I mean sure, I guess it's fine to work with a handsfree carkit and/or patched through your bluetooth enabled car stereo but if you have your window down while driving, it's still hard to hear.
they need to come up with an option on the phone setting for either stereo or mono bluetooth connectivity.

Well thats not actually true. Make sure your next Bluetooth has Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP). It doesnt have to be stereo, it can be monural, mine is. All of mine are actually.‎ If it has A2DP it it will say it on the box. A lot of jawbones have that feature but i've noticed it buggy with the sensation. When a headset has A2DP, when it connects to the phone it connects as phone audio and media audio. With the sensation for me, on multiple jawbones (jawbone and jambox) it only connects both audio sources when it initially pairs. The next time it connects it only connects as phone audio. I have to unpair the jawbone then pair it again and media audio will work. I've updated the firmware on both of my jawbones and it didn't help. Maybe a fix is comin, who knows. Doesnt look like TmoUS is gonna get one any time soon
OP What model jawbone do you have? If it has A2DP then unpair it and re-pair it, it should work then.

hey, thank you for the info.
that just solved it right there. A2DP...
I own a Jawbone 2. I don't think this unit has A2DP.
I guess it's time to upgrade to a new headset.
hate to give it up though... I really like how it looks, hangs on the ear(fits my ear perfect, can't even tell sometimes I have it on), and sounds.
guess I'm off to shop for either a new Jawbone(if they fit my ear right) or a new brand altogether.
anyway, thanks again.
Plain and simple your bluetooth has to support media playing thru it

Hands free kits

Are any of the Bluetooth handsfree car kits any good? I just tried the Motorola Roadster 2 and it is totally crap. Tinny, staticty, basically unable to be heard or understood on the other end.

I've got the GROM-IPD3 in my '04 Volvo S60R. I added the bluetooth addition and use A2DP to stream audio. Alternatively you could use the 3.5mm jack, it has an adapter for it. I also use it to charge the phone. The GROM-USB is more for iphone users, as it will allow you to view the song text on th radio. They claim this doesn't work in Android yet, but will be enabled soon via Bluetooth with our devices since they're AVRCP 1.4+. The bluetooth addition also comes with a microphone so you can place calls over it as well. Works pretty well honestly.

Issues with Bluetooth?

Has anyone had issues in regards to using Bluetooth with Bluetooth headphones? This will be one of my primary uses of this phone. I heard rumors that music over Bluetooth can stutter.
Cheers.

I'm running rooted stock and I use bluetooth ear buds all the time and I've never had any stutter while playing music.
