Is there any way to get my BT headset to permanently act as the microphone for the tablet? I've been searching for apps, but couldn't turn out anything in particular. It's a rooted one, and "use for phone sound" is checked in BT settings for the headset.
Any ideas? You'd think someone else would have a similar problem - or is it just a problem with the headset's capabilities?
My sennheisers work fine...

Not sure if I'm missing a setting or not, but I've noticed that my Fuze doesn't automatically connect to my bluetooth headsets. I'm not sure if it ever did or not.
Even if I have the headset on, I usually have to go into BT and manually set a headset as hands-free or wireless stereo.
Anyone else have this problem?
I'm using ROMeOS.
This does happen to me on occassion. It depends on how many profiles you have setup. I deleted mine and only setup one. Then every morning i voice command it to be sure its connected and i have audio. A little frustrating but this seems to be wm6.1 issue. Possibly a bug?
I have no problem at all with my Motorola S9.
Same here
I agree. Actually, my BTheadset is connecting well when calling (it would be nice if it would do it faster brw) but yeah... wireless stereo needs always to be set manually which is horrible... especially when driving a car i need to take out the stylus to initiate stereo and maybe listen to the music after I crashed my car because of hands-free driving. I think this is not a problem of configutartion, it is just a bug. Any CABs/tweaks/hacks would be appreciated to have....
Any help?
I have the same problem using AT&T stock ROM and Sony wireless stereo headset. Any solutions?
Under Settings > Connections > Beam, make sure "receive all incoming beams" is checked. That fixed my problem on every ROM I've used.
I want to use Spype on my G Tablet - bought myself a bluetooth headset. I can connect no problem (can even toggle it on and off with the home screen button application) it beeps indicating the connection.
But when I do calls I doesn't use the mic and speaker of the headset. Matter of fact it seems like it messed up with my audio setting because my built-in speakers don't seem to work anymore.
Any thoughts?
Sometimes I have the same issue. If you want speakers back, try disconnecting from the Bluetooth device. If that doesn't fix it, just reboot. I just posted another comment about the impossibility to use a bluetooth headset, not just for output, but for audio input also. I guess this is because there's no HSP or HFP bluetooth profiles implemented on the g tablet, just a2dp, which is why it just can stream audio to an output device, like a bluetooth stereo headset or car audio. BTW, I discovered this when trying to achieve exactly what you tried to do, making calls using Skype.
I just got a Bluetooth headphone/headset (with mic) to use with my GT7+ (GT-P6210 wi-fi only) and my semi-smart phone. The headset (Motorola MOTOROKR S305) has three different pairing modes: music only, phone only, and both.
When I pair it with my little phone, it automatically pairs as both. It works fine as a phone headset (mic and earphones), and it works fine as a stereo headphone with the phone's music player.
When I pair it with my GT7+, it automatically pairs as music-only. There is no microphone function. With Bluetooth off, I can make calls using the GT7+ built-in mic and speaker and the GrooVe IP app. No problems. But with the Bluetooth headset paired, I just don't get the mic function. I can hear the phone audio in the earpieces, but the mic is dead.
Is there any workaround? Is there a way to get the GT7+ to identify itself as a phone-capable as well as music-capable device for the purpose of Bluetooth pairing? (That's what I think must be missing.)
TIA.
I can't speak for that particular headset but I successfully use a jabra (phone headset only) and GV with my tab plus. However, before I had a A100 tab and I had similar mic problems with the same jabra headset...so the whole compatibilty thing seems to be hit or miss.
I assume you checked settings to confirm there are no options to adjust mic? Also, you might see what happens if you pair and use GV right after boot.

I did check settings and I didn't find anything relevant. I also tried pairing while GrooVe IP was running and logged into GV. I'll try that again right after boot. Thanks.
Hi
I have connected a jabra bt2015 headset to my ics tf101 but no sound comes out of it. I looked into the settings and it said something about 'phone audio' as an available profile. apparently sometimes this says 'media' is an available profile too.
Does anyone know how I can make this bt device available for media? It's only mono as it's an in-ear phone type headsetty thing which I'm guessing might have something to do with it.
I want to use it for skype, which has a little bluetooth icon when I'm in call which supposedly allows me to select my headset for skype chat but it instantly reverts back to speakers as soon as I select it. I'm wondering if the skype application wants a 'media profile' headset and not a phone one?
Anyone else had similar issues?
Thanks.

I have a Plantronics Voyager Legend Bluetooth headset which I use with the Nexus 5.
(Almost) every time I make a call, the headset first blips and you can see in the dialer that Bluetooth is chosen for sound output.
But just after dialing, the audio is back at the phone (handset earpiece). So I have to switch to Bluetooth again. Then during calls, sometimes the audio is routed back to the phone again.
It always works when you move it back to the Bluetooth headset again but it is very annoying.
Phone has stock 4.4.2-latest.
Any other threads about this? Bugs @ Google? Couldn't find anything..
I guess it depends on the Bluetooth device you're using. My nokia bluetooth headphones work perfectly where as I face similar problems like you when I'm using it in my car.
Maybe try the app soundabout from the playstore. Seem to work (sometimes) on my N4 when I had phone audio problems.
Easy solution to my problem: Unpaired the headset and paired it again, now it works as expected!
