Hello,
I have a car which supports only Bluetooth Phone option and this is the case of a lot of bluetooth car devices.
So I'm perfectly able to receive and send phone call but I cannot send music to the car speakers through Bluetooth (this is really due to bluetooth car device and not phone itself).
I'm wondering if it might be possible to emulate phone dialog in order to let the car thought it is receiving a phone communication and so play it.
Phone Music --> Phone call emulation in Bluetooth (caller voice normally transmitted is replaced by music played) ....> Car bluetooth phone call reception --> Speakers
It should be probably needed too to emulate car bluetooth receiver as a bluetooth sound player (in order to cheat android phone) .
Thanks to share your opinion / ideas.

Music is usually routed to Media channel on the phone. Maybe avoiding that could be the solution. Figure out a way to route the audio to the Ringer for example. That might work.

I use a USB bluetooth dongle with a 3.5 mm headphone jack in my car in order to stream music from my phone. I plug the dongle into the lighter outlet for power and then connect the dongle to the aux jack in the car's stereo. Everything works great when playing any media. However, it won't connect for call audio. If I were to dial a phone number, the sound from the key touches play through the radio, but as soon as the call connects the audio plays through the phone's earpiece. I am not able to get the in call audio to stream through my bluetooth. When I go to the bluetooth settings, I see an option for media audio and nothing for in call audio. If anyone can help me get this fixed, that would be great. Also, I am on CM 10 RC 1, but this did the exact same thing on stock touchwiz.

I have the same issue on stock. This thread isn't the same as what you're asking, but he does state that he is trying to find a workaround to the same issue.

Thanks for the reply. However, my issue is that once a call connects, the audio goes through the phone's earpiece. I can only stream media (youtube, Pandora, music, etc.) through Bluetooth, but calls won't connect to my Bluetooth setup at all.
I really hope someone has a solution to this.
Hey guys, I'm trying to help a friend out, maybe you guys can help? :
"I have a strange issue where spotify stops me from being able to record through google now on a nexus 5.
I use my phone + spotify in an interesting way with my car bluetooth. I have two bluetooth connections running simultaneously (because my car only natively supports phone audio and not media audio). One is obviously the car for calls and the second is a bluetooth adapter kit for my head unit (made by GROM).
Now that google now supports voice through bluetooth in my car. When i press the mic the bluetooth audio swaps to my cars integrated system (bluetooth connection 1) and waits for input.
Usually (when i was using google music last month) google now would do its search and start playing my music again. However when spotify is active in memory and i force a voice input into google now the audio starts to play out of bluetooth connection 1 and swaps between connection 1 and 2 not actually allowing me to say anything (seems to flood the mic).
The only way i could make it stop wanting to play what was last played in spotify was to kill the service and then activate the google now voice prompt."

Apps are up to date
So my car allows me to connect my phone via bluetooth to the stereo to make phone calls, but does not allow me to connect media audio (Pandora, YouTube, etc), which I believe is called A2DP. There are some aftermarket kits available to wire in a new receiver in place of the CD changer, but then that co-opts the other bluetooth for phone, which I can control via steering wheel and such.
I was wondering if it is at all possible for an app to stream audio output as if it was a phone call? Is anyone aware of an app that does this or some way to possibly hack it?
Hello all
One of the issues I have with Bluetooth on this phone is that the controls aren't granular enough. I want to be able to make and answer phone calls in my car using the Bluetooth connectivity, however, when I turn Bluetooth on, Google Now and Maps also try to send their audio to the car speakers, and either A) you can barely hear the voice, or B) it doesn't work at all and I hear nothing (this is especially true when I'm playing other music media in the car that isn't coming from the phone).
Is there any way (or is there an app) that can redirect Google Now and Maps to continue to use the phone speaker, while phone calls can go through the car? Right now it seems like it's the same setting to control both phone calls and audio output from apps.
