Skype - Galaxy Note 10.1 Themes and Apps

Skype was running fine on my Note 10.1, until the latest Skype update from the Play store. Supposedly improves BT functionality. What it really did was ruin BT functionality. If I have a BT headset connected, Skype can't make a call, or even answer a call. It works fine without BT... Anyone else having this problem?
If anyone has the APK for the old version of skype, could you please post it here?
Thanks!

This is a great re write off the current Skype app that has an advanced settings menu......working great on my note.

How to make a Bluetooth Headset work with Skype

I have searched the tornado forum for a answer to this but t no avail. Does anyone have a fix that will allow Skype to use the bluetooth headset? Now some say it is a stack issue but I was wondering then why my Dell Axim x30 with no modifications easily uses the headset. Possibly they use there own stack. Anyway is there an answer or is it useless? Thanks for any help that you can give me, i am headed to england and really wanted to get this to work.
you have to use BTARouter app - works nice, but you have to disable A2DP profile first
Try CeleTask 2.2 which got bluetooth audio function.
Thanks for all the help! bsider where can I find BTAudio Router? I have found a toggle program that does not work and I trie Bluemusic 2.0 but the trial does not work for me so i am not about to buy it. i will look at CELE 2.2 right now.
Thanks
Ok Got BTArouter and it works, but when I have the sound routed to the headset the mic does not work so i cannot talk. Is there a fix for this? Am I missing something? So neither the headset mic or the internal mic works. I am leaving the country soon and would love to get this working.
Thanks

for me MIC works ok with BTArouter and Fring. I'm using SE DS-970 headset, and you?
i am using the new jawbone headset. Could it be that they are not compatible? This skype thing is looking moar and more bogus. I will try with another headset.
Everything has been fixed. Fring was the answer. Thank you for all your help!

Has anyone been able to use Google Talk (video chat) with bluetooth?

The 2.3.4 update enabled video chat in the Google Talk application, but I cant seem to figure out how to use it with Bluetooth. I have checked everywhere and I honestly just cant figure it out. Has anyone been able to get this to work?? If so, how the heck did you do it? If it helps I am using an Icon Jawbone bluetooth headset.
Anyone? I can't be the only person experiencing this problem.
Bump again! I still havent been able to resolve this, so any help is appreciated.
I cannot, neither.
I think it's a issue from the Google Talk.
Its been a while since I updated this thread and I wanted to know if anyone had this working yet. There must be a workaround that sends all audio out via Bluetooth....
Bump! I am still hopefully this will get resolved. Please comment if you know how to do this.
I assume that other audio such as music from apps like Pandora come through your bluetooth. If you can listen to music and games via Bluetooth one would think that it would work on video chat also. I could have swore I did this but it may have been another video chat app like tango or qik.
I'll try later to see if it was in fact GTalk or another app.
Have you searched the Market for bluetooth apps?
https://market.android.com/details?...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5iZWRvaWcuQlRtb25vIl0. this app will direct sound to bt headset but nor microphone. GTALK should still be usable, as long as the phone is in front of you and not tucked away in the pocket.

Yeah, its crazy actually. All other programs send bluetooth audio through the headset by default as soon as I connect it. It would appear as if Google Talk someone disabled this functionality.

Hmm, that is a good start but really it would need to be two way for it to be practical.
same problem,
but: I dont need video
I tried 3rd party apps with BT support
-FRING
-TALKATONE
Fring: has poor quality, but every call connected succesfully,
Talkatone: call is perfect, but speaker and microphone working both only in 1 from 50x.
Gtalk 2 routing nothing to BT for me
If anyone found or will find any solution for gtalk call via bluetooth headset stable.. please write it.. THX a lot
agreed, this is very frustrating.

Use Bluetooth Headset to Create Voice Memo or Memo?

Running Sean's Sky ICS.
When I am driving, I often dictate voice memos, using a standard voice recorder app. I used to be able to do this through my bluetooth headset with Voice2Do, but that app FC's now on ICS.
I have not been able to find another app that lets me create voice memos with the bluetooth headset - many say they do, but I cant get any of them to work with ICS. Does anyone know of one that works?
An acceptable alternative would be to create non-voice memos through the bluetooth headset. So, if there is a keyboard that does voice recognition through the bluetooth headset, that would work. Does anyone know of one?
I have S-Voice working through the headset, and it will save memos to S-Memo, but I cannot get S-Memo working on the Skyrocket.
A solution would be greatly appreciated.

I was looking into this as well, although I didn't get very far in my search. Tape Machine looked promising, but it couldn't open my BT device. That could be my particular device, or my third party rom. It's worth trying though.

Yeah, tried it, with no luck.
Vlingo does have an option to listen via bluetooth, and I can use it to send an email to myself (but not to create a note), but it seems to lose the bluetooth connection after one use.

CM9 and Car Bluetooth Music Streaming

I'm just wondering if some one else has this same issue and if it has been fixed/worked around somehow.
I'm running CM9 and have a car bluetooth unit. I make and receive calls fine, but oddly, I can only stream music using Apollo and Google Play. All the other apps don't work, pandora, tunein, playerPro, powerAmp, AmazonMP3. This only happens when I try to use my car BT, everything works fine with other regular bluetooth headseats.
Using stock ROM or stock-based ROM (like skyics) everything works fine; all the apps transmit my music to the BT unit without problems.
Ideas?

Actually, I know some BT issues have been reported, not this one in particular. But my main question is if someone has found a fix or way around.
Since I couldn't find anything, I kept researching and discovered it is a sound routing issue in CM that happens with BT car units; regular BT headsets work fine.
I downloaded this app (sound route switcher bluetooth) that forces the sound to be routed to whatever you select. When I select to force the sound through BT, all the music apps transmit fine to my car BT unit.
This particular problem only happens in CM and AOPK. The stock or stock-based roms (like sky ics) route the music properly.
The BT problems have been reported since CM7 but they don't seem to care about it.
I got exactly same problem and I am running CM jelly bean on my samsung S2 the car I have got is toyota camery with stock audio system. I have been looking for the solution but cant find anything on net.

Install the app I linked above or get a "stock-ish" ROM.

Playerpro crashes in Bluetooth connect.

Hello guys,
I am not sure where to address this issue and thought this would be a good place.
I am running Imperium Rom LL v9.1 ( last update ) on my Galaxy S4.
I also use Playerpro as my audio player and never had any problems in the past. Untill now when I connect it to bluetooth it crashes when I try to play music...basicaly freezes more then crashes. Also on stock music app. Both mentioned apps work normal off bluetooth.
When I use Poweramp or Pandora connected to BT that problem never occurs. Everything works fine. What do you think is causing this problem ?
Any feedback greatly appreciated.
