I'm trying to stream music and audio from my Galaxy S3 through my computer (running Windows 7) via bluetooth. I understand that there are wifi alternatives, but I'm looking specifically for bluetooth.
I was able to establish a bluetooth connection between the computer & phone, however I get an error at the driver software installation stage that no driver was found for the "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" ("Standard Serial over Bluetooth link" both show as ready to use). I can successfully pair the phone to the computer, and when I play audio on the GS3 no sound comes out of the phone's speakers. This suggests to me that it does think it's got a good pairing with the computer, but no sound comes from the computer speakers and I can't find any settings for bluetooth audio input.
FYI, I'm currently running LiquidSmooth 4.2.1 beta 1a.
Anybody able to successfully do what I'm trying? Thanks in advance!

Hi I want to use my computer's speaker and mic as headset while making/answering calls in my windows mobile(imate sp5m). Is there any software available for this?
I want to use my USB connection rather than Bluetooth. I already tried using my PC as Bluetooth headset, and it was ok.
thanks

I have never heard of a Windows Mobile device that has USB Audio support, which is what would be required to do what you are wanting to do. Your only option is going to be Bluetooth. On the Mac there are a ton of applications that let you use your Mac as a BT headset but I've never heard of anything like that on Windows (mainly because it's well-known the Mac has a better Bluetooth stack).
It is possible to use the PC/laptop as a receiver of calls from your mobile. You have to use the correct bluetooth software. I had to reinstall my hard drive and have forgotten how to do it! But before that I had it working perfectly. I believe I was using the software that came with my Acer5500. I need to play around abit more.....
Hello,
I want to extract the audio from my phone (the analog TV and FM/AM receiver mainly) and play it through my computer speakers. There is a headphone jack but it is of non-standard size (slightly smaller, probably 2.5mm).
Both my laptop and my phone support A2DP but for some reason the service (from the phone) does not show up while I add a new connection and the phone does not let me initiate a connection with any other profile except FTP (although it detects other services in the service list like A2DP and works perfectly fine with other profiles like DUN, HID, OPP, SSP if the connection is started through the computer).
I am currently using the latest version of the Toshiba stack, I have tried using WIDCOMM but it refuses to install drivers for both the internal Bluetooth and the USB Bluetooth that I use on my desktop. The standard Microsoft stack (generic driver) does install but it does not work with both of my devices as they do not detect any Bluetooth devices when scanning.
How can I make my phone detect my computer as a headset?
Thanks in advance.
Hey all,
I love this phone and most especially Clean Rom 4.0.
The only issue I'm having is a huge one for me and is regardless of which ROM I am running. So, if you can help, i will be very grateful.
1. When I have the S3 connected via aux input in my car and have Navigation active while listening to music through MOG, when navigation interrupts the music i don't get to hear the voice prompt for some reason -- just silence.
2. When i try to connect my S3 to the USB input on my car's Alpine head unit, i get the following message on the Alpine screen: "Device Error"
Any work arounds?
Thanks!
Tommy
I am running CleanROM 7 (touchwiz basec ICS ROM) on my S3 and I've been using it in my car with a tunelink auto BT adapter that outputs to my aux port.
Lately, for seemingly no reason, the phone has stopped connecting the tunelink to media audio. The device is paired but never connects to media audio. When I have both devices on, under the BT menu on the phone I go to the tunelink device settings and try to check the box that says "media audio" it blinks for a second, sometimes it will say "connecting..." but then just stops and the check box never sets and it never connects to the device (the BT icon in the status bar never turns blue)
I just tried installing the latest firmware (modem) with no luck. I've rebooted, fixed permissions, with no luck. I just gave up in a battle to get BT audio to work with AOSP based ROMs (it was distorted and skipping) so I've just about had it with BT problems. I went back to CleanROM because I had been using it before I tried AOSP for a very long time with no issue. Does anyone have any ideas how I can fix this? Any insight is appreciated!
Any luck with this? I have a new Nexus 6 that I'm having the same problem with. Before my old Nexus 5 I had no issues.
I recently remembered that my PC has Bluetooth Capability. I'm sure I noticed when I bought it but never gave it much thought. So I attempted to connect my phone to my Windows 8 PC and WOW it worked I was so stoked! But now, I am apparently stuck. My device is paired. It believes that it is paired. It even sends audio to my Bluetooth device, so that my speakers are not on. But I am not hearing a thing on my PC. I had hoped that now with them being paired, I would be able to make and receive calls on my PC, as well as stream audio from my phone to my PC. So far, however, I can do exactly nothing with this connection. Am I missing something here, or is this a completely useless feature?
