Hey guys
Strange issue here. I paired my phone with my car through Bluetooth to make and receive calls using the car audio system. It works well.
However, if I fire Google Navigation, I can't here the spoken instructions through either the phone speaker or the car speakers.
I was not expecting navigation audio to be routed through Bluetooth audio, but I did expect the navigation instructions to come out of the phone speaker, as it does on the nexus one or the vibrant both running Android 2.2.
Is anybody else having this issue?
Thanks

did you flash a new kernel or anything because the kernel in the dev thread is known to break bluetooth
if it does this stock out of the box try doing a system restore and then take it back if its still acting up because bluetooth should turn on
yea i used the pkg one that had SU etc on it. Suppose Ill have to flash back to stock arg.
just so peeps know with the bt issue flashing this fixed

Bluetooth doesn't stream audio to car - what's your experience
I've got a Ford Edge with the new Ford MyTouch/Sync system.
The Nexus S connects to the Bluetooth just fine; makes and receives calls perfectly. It will also connect to the Bluetooth Audio Stream for music playback, but won't play the audio over the car's speakers. Also, sometimes it connects, holds the connection for just a few seconds and then disconnects. My SGS and Nexus One work as expected, as does the iPhone, so it doesn't appear to be an issue with the car.
Seems like a bug in the NS to me.
I'm curious if others are streaming audio/music to their auto's BT system without issues?
It would be especially nice to know what anyone else with a new Ford/Lincoln is experiencing, but I'd also like to compile a list of what cars work and what don't.
I'm going to have to find some other BT device that I can test the stream on to see if my phone works with it or not. Maybe my Nexus One dock? I've never used that to stream audio even with the Nexus One.
In terms of troubleshooting my problem, I've already rebooted the phone and the car, un-paired and re-paired the phone with the car.
I've got a Mazda RX8 R3 and the NS will pair with the in-built car BT but drops the connection after a few minutes. It then refuses to connect again unless I re-pair, then a few minutes later it drops and we're back to square one.
The car's in-built BT worked fine with my HTC Desire, Hero, iPhone 3G and Blackberry 9700 so I'm guessing the Nexus S has a Bluetooth issue.
Mine works fine on my aftermarket Sony receiver.
having issues with bluetooth audio too, stream keeps breaking every now and then. Any fixes?
I've only streamed to the car stereo and had no issues. The phone is only about 10cms away.
Haven't tried my BT headphones yet, maybe range is the issue.
*On original ROM.

tried placing the phone right next the the BT reciever and same problem. Only tried this once, maybe I'll try rebooting the phone.
no problem here
using Bionix 1.2
You're lucky, I can't even get BT music streaming to work with my car. No other BT devices to check with besides my Nexus One dock, which has no speakers.
BT works great for the phone, though, to make and receive calls.
Problem with Bluetooth
I cant get to work bluetooth on Nexus S.
When i enable it and try to send something from SGS to Nexus S it says me "This tranfer was canceled by the user" (Nexus S)
SGS says "Remote device rejected your request"
When i try send something from Nexus S, but use not function Send, i use function Bluetooth - it says me "The application Bluetooth Share (process com.android.bluetooth) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
I tried factory reset, wipe cache, tried flash any other roms, but got NOTHING helpt me. I have this problem on 2 phones (2xNS).
Can someone give me files of BlueTooth share? (com.android.bluetooth)
That's an interesting problem you have. Mine did the same thing transfering from my computer to my NS. I just tried it again when I read your post (to make completely sure what the error was) and it has automagically fixed its self.
Well, seems i need a file \system\app\bluetooth.apk
I paired my phone with my car's bluetooth radio and noticed the following behavior:
- If I turn on my car radio and then turn bluetooth on on my One X, it will auto connect and start playing music.
- If I turn on bluetooth on my One X, get in my car and turn on the radio, my One X will not auto-connect. I have to go into the bluetooth settings screen and select my car's device name (CAR M_MEDIA) and then it connects and starts playing music.
I can turn on and off my One X's bluetooth repeatedly while in the car and it will connect each time, but it doesn't ever connect if I turn on and off the car's radio.
I tried a bunch of roms, including Stock, CleanROM and others in the development forum and finally I tried CM10. They all behave the exact same way.
Seeing that CM10 also has the issue caused me to give up and come here for help, because my Atrix 4G with CM9 never had this issue. I might try CM9 on my One X as a last resort.
Any help on this one?
What model/year car, and is it a manufacturer stereo, or a 3rd party head unit? Every stereo head unit and phone is a bit different, and some combinations simply don't play well together.
I have had the same issue with my 2012 Subaru Impreza, with factory stereo (non-nav version). Tried any of a variety of things (different ROMs, editing some of the BT config files), and nothing worked. Also have the issue that even when i manually connect it, it doesn't connect maybe 20% of the time. And when it does, the steering wheel controls to change the music track only works maybe half the time.
I called HTC support, had to escalate the issue to get anyone to listen to me, and they tried the usual (update phone firmware, safe mode) with no luck (not surprising). They said all they could do was log the issue, and hope that it gets addressed in a future update. Probably the most you can do is call HTC also, so they at least start to get the message that its a known issue. The HTC tech also mentioned it may be a feature that is disabled on purpose, due to a known security issue.
I think its a fault of the BT stack, which is HTC proprietary. On my old HTC Desire Z, newer versions of Sense seemed to work better with my car stereo BT. Unfortunately, with the One X, it seems they have taken a step backward. I also noticed on my old DZ that AOSP based ROMs worked better with my car stereo BT, and also displayed the track info (artist, title, etc) on my car stereo which is something that the HTC Bluetooth stack never does. So I assume it was a different non-HTC Bluetooth stack. So therefore, like you, I thought an AOSP ROM might fix the problem. I tried AOKP (ICS) but not CM9, and AOKP didn't help. Not being a dev, I'm not sure where the BT stack comes from in AOSP ROMs. On AOKP, the track info was not displayed on my car stereo, and the config files were the same as HTC stock, leading me to believe it was the HTC stack. Maybe somebody with more knowledge can shed some light on the matter of AOSP ROMs and the Bluetooth stack, as I've been wondering this.
My car is a 2011 Subaru Impreza. Coincidence? Probably not. I know the car does something different than my other Bluetooth headset because music starts when it connects to the car but not when it connects to my headset. I have to press play on my headset for the music to launch.
Also the headset auto connects reliably to my One X, no matter which one I turn on first, unlike my car. Perhaps a hint is there? Maybe some logs would shed some light on the problem?
Edit: just tried CM9, same result. I never did logcat so I'm not sure if that would help, would it?
Hey all,
I'm having a problem with my phone's bluetooth audio.
Background:
Verizon HTC One M8, s-off, TWRP recovery, rooted. Stock 4.4.4
Bluetooth headset is an Interphone F5MC with FM receiver built in (motorcyle helmet bluetooth and intercom)
Problem:
Until recently, everything worked perfectly. Went to go for a ride on a sunny December Las Vegas day, and the FM receiver was working until I connected my phone via bluetooth. With the BT phone audio setting ON, neither the FM receiver nor BT media audio work. With BT phone audio setting OFF, both work flawlessly. Everything works flawlessly when connecting to my girlfriend's stock to the bone Galaxy S5. Sent the headset in for repair, Interphone sent it back saying it passed all diagnostics. I'm literally at rope's end here. Searched for solutions for a full week now. Reinstalled this rom 3 times to no avail. Help is appreciated.
I've searched extensively and can't seem to find the specific answer I'm looking for. Ever since my phone updated to 5.1.1 my Bluetooth media connection won't work, just my call audio. This really pisses me off because I JUST bought a new head unit for my car so I could stream audio from my phone. My phone is not rooted and I wasn't planning on going through the hassle of rooting this one. Is there a fix without rooting? If not, will rooting and flashing a custom ROM fix the issue? I see there are some marshmallow ROMs already out.
I'm on 5.1.1 and have to power on and off my Bluetooth adapter half the time. Phone doesn't connect to data wifi or blue tooth in till adaptor is rebooted. Says it's connected.
I've tried it. Turned off bluetooth and turned it back on, as well as went into the bluetooth settings and turned "call audio" and "media audio" off/on multiple times. For less than a second if I have music playing it will play through the car and then the phone kicks media audio off again.
After I'm connected, I can take a call and music resumes. I've had problems with some apps that updates have fixed. But not what your describing. Maybe one of the auto connect apps from the play store?

You cannot root the phone even if you wanted to because of the locked bootloader. Do you have the latest firmware update for your head unit? If not see if updating it may help. I have a top of the line Kenwood NAV head unit that worked without a hitch on my S4. When I got the S6 calls worked fine but I couldn't get audio to work. I found a solution on a Kenwood support site and now it works without any issues. Somehow settings were changed when I switch from the S4 to the S6. Also could there be an issue with your mobile data?
I can no longer pair to any Bluetooth device with my m8. I can't pinpoint when Bluetooth stopped working because I was without my car for 2 months (in the body shop) and wasn't using any other Bluetooth devices during that time.
I tried reverting back to stock FW with both of these links and have had no luck with Bluetooth working again:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...zw-m8-master-ruu-firmware-collection-t2946473
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...pment/stock-m-firmware-nand-recovery-t3330972
Does anyone have any ideas on what I should try to do to fix it? Do I want to downgrade to a FW pre 6.0?
Have anyone heard of the physical bluetooth module that randomly stopped working on a phone?
