[Q] CM10 and my bluetooth device still no go? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Hi all,
I am tying to figure why my particular bluetooth device just refuses to work with CM10. (BluAnt S4)
I have tried all different versions of CM10 here, as well as the vincom's audio bluetooth fix, to no avail.
Since I have to use it in my car, because of the laws around here, I would like to know anyone else has a working fix for this.
My same device works very well with my girlfriends nexus s CM10 setup.
I get it to ring when I call, but cannot talk/listen to the other party, and they cant hear me. It does show that it is connected, and paired.
I keep reverting back to my backup of CM9 for my daily driver.
Thanks
Heeter

Had the same issue, moved on to AOKP though that's not a resolve to CM10 but it's a fix for me since car BT is practically essential.

Thanks for that, which aokp based ROM do you use?

Does any other BT device work?
Did you try the 9/18 cm10 unofficial nightly? The 9/18 nightly works flawlessly.
When you flash are you formatting system? I always format system on nightly as things seem to work better\
here is the link to the 9/18 build http://builds.redpepperracing.com/u...tory=rpr&PHPSESSID=4d6a6fgjqn8d05c0nt03qmjpg0

I had official CM9 stable and yes confirm BT does work.
As for my current AOKP I was using the one post by R4INS, I found out last night there was an update see http://goo.im/devs/R4INS (the latest Sep-14-2), I haven't tried the BT on that update yet though I can confirm Sep 9 version worked link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831858. On Sep 9 you will still need to flash policy conf. fix posted by vincom to fix the music output in car, but the BT phone talk always worked without any issues.
***edit*** officially confirmed sep 14 update BT didn't work, in reverting to sep 9

I do not have access to any other BT device at this time. I did a completely fresh install of cm10 nightly 9/18 and later. BT never worked. I have just installed AOKP (ortheus) and my BT is now working.

CM has been having this problem since CM7. And it has been reported over and over in their issue tracker. But nobody at the CM team can take it and just fix it.

Vincom uploaded a fix for his Support lite Rom. Here ya go & for all others that need it.

Not sure if I have just been picking the right ones but I've never had a Bluetooth/Wifi issue with any ROM I've used...
Right now I'm running Superlite JB without gapps which I would think would have the least support and most issues but it's running really well.
Works flawlessly with my car's BT.

Mute not working for Bluetooth on CM7 or CM9 ROMs

I just wanted to share something that I found the hard way.
The Mute is NOT working if you are using Bluetooth with a CM7 based ROM.
I actually am using EB 2.4 ROM and I was listening to a conference call with my Bluetooth headset with the Mute selected on the phone when I got an e-mail from a colleague telling me to mute my phone
This issue is already listed in the cyanogenmod project page as issue# 4439.
I just wanted to let people know of this bug and hopefully be saved from some embarrassing moments.
UPDATE:
The issue happens in all CM based ROMs that I have tested so far, including the beta ICS CM9 ROMs

Interestingly enough it does not work in CM9 either. Tried the build, love it but hate the missing mute function.

That's too bad. I was hoping it would've been fixed on CM9.
Oh well. Just need to keep being careful and using the mute feature of the conference itself, instead of the phone.
BTW if you don't have an issue downgrading you can go to 2.3.3 and the problem goes away.
A BT connect problem may arise (as for me) but still worth a shot.

I think I remember something about the CM team saying bluetooth will never fully work, they had to do a workaround just to get bluetooth headsets working in the first place. Also, you should update your Eaglesblood build, 2.8 has some nice new things.

Verizon CM10 Nightlies

Installed the most recent nightly Jellybean for Verizon. Seems stable but I notice what seems to be degraded sound quality on phone calls. Anyone else having that issue?
Can someone more experienced recommend a better (or preferred build)?
Thanks,

You can't expect nightly builds to be stable- they will and do have issues with various things.
The vast majority, if not every single AOSP ROM for the SGS3 uses all of (or a good chunk) of CyanogenMod's code, which is why you see so many of the same bugs between builds that are rarely fixed until someone submits to CyanogenMod's Gerrit.
I can't comment on your specific issue, just posting some food for thought.
A lot of people have posted about echoes or low volume on the CM10 builds. I don't make many phone calls so I don't know if this affects every phone running CM10. But I'm sure it does to various extents. They will work it out in the coming weeks as they work toward a stable build.

No echo here. I just flashed to the 9/1/2012 nightly from stock.
Did you try playing with the call settings? I have noise suppression enabled and voice privacy disabled.
I actually have a similar problem (can't post on official thread yet).
I have trouble with my headset volume.
If i plug it in DURING a call, I cant hear anything and can't do anything to adjust the volume.
If i plug it in BEFORE a call, it's fine.
Any clues as to whats going on or any suggestions on how to fix it?
Paranoid android Sept 2nd build seems to work nice, i think it works better than the CM10 builds even though its based off it. You can also mess around with tablet mode!
Let's get the echo fixed and the roaming issue fixed and the forum will flock to these roms. Till then I would beware.

I just flashed CM10 09/04 nightly and I am still getting the 3 second In call delay, I am still getting echo on speaker phone and I am still getting my voice navigation only say " in a half mile" Nothing else, No one seems to even mention this in the official CM10 forms. and No its not a half mile from my house to the end of my street , its like less than 1000 ft. Everything else seems to work good but the delay and the echo are very annoying so I am going back to the build that worked best for me cm10 08/22

Same results here for 904. The other forum mentions that an unofficial build has the incoming call delay fixed, though, so I'm hoping the fix shows up when the official 905 ROM comes out.
Headphones with mic not working
I'm running the 9/2 build and when I plug the stock headphones with mic into the phone I cannot talk or hear phone calls through it. No issue with music. Screen flickers when using keyboard (Swiftkey). Volume control in call doesn't seem to work. There is also a 5 second delay when I answer a call to when I can hear the other person or they can hear me. Same delay with speaker phone.
At least the damn echo is gone though :good:
Can anyone confirm whether or not the dock audio is working on recent CM10 builds? I've tried searching the thread and have done everything short of just flashing it to see.
Thanks for your replies!
The dock audio was still not working for me on the CM10 from 9/5.

You are correct. Just tried it myself. This is the main thing holding me back from CM10. I'm going to attempt to add it in myself. We'll see what happens.
9/5 build seems to be very solid. No data issues or call issues. Cannot comment o no the dock audio though. Make sure you aren't doing dirty flashes, there have been tons of issues with dirty flashing.

This is why I switched to ParanoidAndroid. It is Jellybean and far more stable than the current CM10. If you want Jellybean right now~ I highly recommend PA. If you really like CM, still, try PA~ it will help you wait for the official CM10 release. I actually don't see a need to go CM10 tbh. PA is wonderful.

Bluetooth not working properly

I just recently flashed Cleanrom 5.5.1 on my stock GS3. I factory reset the phone then flashed the ROM. Everything works great but today in my car I noticed that the Bluetooth is not functioning properly. I cannot understand a word the other person is saying, it is seriously garbled. However A2DP streaming works just fine.
Any ideas why Bluetooth is not working correctly?
Thanks

I have had the same problem since I switched from ICS based ROMs to JB based ROMs, I believe Cleanrom 5.5.1 is JB 4.1.2, right?
I never had problems with my bluetooth when I was using ICS or Cyanogenmod10 based on JB.
For me, the problem has been car specific. I have used the bluetooth with other cars devices without problem. The voices get garbled only when I use it with my car (Infiniti/Nissan). I have not been able to figure out a fix yet.
That is interesting...because my car is an Infiniti as well. Why would the issue be car specific? It has never given me problem on ICS roms.
What should I to do begin troubleshooting?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
It would be specific due to manufacturer of the bluetooth module supplying Chip X. I think i'm running into this with an aftermarket HU. But I'll see after the weekend.
Ok so I flashed back to the stock factory image of JB and still have the same issue. Since that is the same as the OTA update, would calling VZ customer care perhaps help me?

[Q] Jellybam 3.2.0 bluetooth problem

Hi. I haven't got the post count to ask this in the Jellybam thread, so though I'd give my problem a go in here.
Is there a known issue with the Bluetooth in the Jellybam roms? I've tried 3.0.0, 3.1.0 and 3.2.0 and with each one I can pair the phone with my car but the phone book wont load up and it phone keeps disconnecting. Also despite it being set to use the cars audio, it does not.
Previously to this I was using Stickman89's Jellybean JBMIUI rom with no issues.
A full wipe was done when switching from the JBMIUI rom.
Any ideas guys?
Cheers.
Can't help but can confirm the same issue, all day in the car it kept connecting and disconnecting to my Bluetooth car kit.
Have you noticed it keeps going into silent mode? I am sure its related.
Yes I am using jelly am 3.2.0.

Yes I had noticed that, but put it down to the constant connecting/disconnecting of the Bluetooth. I'm hoping a fix can be found as otherwise this is a great rom. If not I'll have to revert back to JBMIUI rom.
Jellybam is not the issue I believe. Android 4.2 changes now android uses Bluetooth and as such has broken a lot of things for people like we now cannot connect Wii remotes via Bluetooth as we'll get an error stating that the apps cannot find the path to it :thumbdown:

Unless I'm missing something Jellybam is 4.1.2. So I'm pretty sure it's not the 4.2 Bluetooth problems I've been reading about.
Update.
I gave up on JellyBam (which is a shame as I liked every other aspect, but not JellyBams fault) and tried a couple of other Jelly Bean roms. Both of which had the same Bluetooth connection issues.
So it would seem the only Jelly Bean rom where the bluetooth works is Stickman89's JBMIUI rom (other JBMIUI roms may work also). Though due to me being bored of the MIUI rom now, I've gone to an ICS rom Elegancia sense 4.1 v3.2.0
I shall keep an eye on Jelly Bean as hopefully this Buetooth issue will be solved and I can go back to JellyBam at a later date.

Phone Dials but no Sound

I have an occasional issue where my phone is dialing a number but I cannot hear the ringing, and once it connects there is no sound either way.
Sometimes if I reboot the phone will work again - but other times I need to reboot several times before it seems to start working again.
Obviously this is a huge problem as I use this phone for business...any suggestions on how I can diagnose this?

Which version of which build are you using? There was a well-documented (and very annoying) bug in CM for a while that affected in-call audio. This has been addressed in more recent builds and seems to have been eliminated. A little more information will make it easier to help you.

I've had this problem with all kinds of roms (stock, custom, aosp, etc). Sometimes it happened more often sometimes less. I've even had this happen to me on three different phones (SE x8, i9100 and i727r). Most often it happens with CM7, CM9 and CM10. But it did and does also happen with official roms. I'm on the Rogers JB now and it still happens, but relatively rare. This has been discussed before and with no result. Apparantly this is a common android issue..
Same issue talked about here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2164921

I had such problem too and hadn't found the reason.
Anyway, after I flashed UXUMA7 radio, I haven't experienced it any more.
I just had this issue today. I've been running cm 10.1 m snapshot since Friday using the phone no problems. Last hour of work my wife calls no audio during call. I then wiped the cache partition and devik cache nothing. Came home did a full wipe and now its fine. I don't know don't know what happened. I think I may find a different ROM if this happens again

The last m release that I know of (I haven't been on straight CM for a few weeks) was released before a commit that fixed the no in-call audio bug. I'd read through the thread and look to see which nightly has been the most stable, if I were you. If you do decide to switch to another ROM I can personally vouch for Sons of Android or Slim Bean (onlychevys has an unofficial build out).
I have since switched to Embryo and, so far (hope I didnt just jinx myself) I have not experienced this issue.
