So, this is a weird one, and chances are none of you will ever experience it, but maybe you might know how to fix it.
I use a Moto Hint "earset" to listen to podcasts with Pocket Casts and audiobooks with Audible. When I get into the car, the car tries to pair with the phone, but since my car only has phone bluetooth and not audio bluetooth support, I don't bother disconnecting the Hint and plugging in an audio cable unless I'm going further than a few minutes.
But whenever the car tries to connect to the phone, the audio stops. ONLY if I'm using Pocket Casts! And ONLY with the Moto Hint! Audible works fine. My Plantronics headset works fine. Waze works fine.
I've contacted Pocket Casts as well, but I don't expect them to treat this as a red ball

I have a Sony Ericsson A2DP Headset. It connects fine for both calls and for listening to music. There is however one small annoying issue.
If I'm listening to music (generally I have to have the volume up quite high) and a phonecall comes in and I take the call; something weird happens when the call ends.
The bluetooth connection is dropped and basically everyone in the vicinity gets and earful of whatever music I was playing before the call. This can be pretty bad if I'm sitting at one of our quiet, open plan offices. If I press the play buttin on my headset it reconnects and audio comes in over the headset again but it's not good to have to do this after every call.
Anyone else had this issue?
Thanks in advance.
Whenever I encounter a quirky bluetooth problem, deleting the pair relationship and repairing sometimes helps.
Works fine for me... Could be headset specific, as I use Motorola S9's and Plantronics 855's without the issue you're having.
It does it for me too. After the phone call the music is played through the phone's speaker for just a couple of seconds, then gets transferred to the headset in mono for a couple of seconds before reverting back to normal.
I can see this would be annoying if you were in a quiet place.
Sony Headset
and me, funnily enough I have a Samsung MP3 player and the headset works perectly with that - good old HTC
I've search for over two hours but it seems ive learned alot but i still cant find my problem the problem is that every time i connect to my car kit windows media starts working but then after i turn off my car and then turn it back on the music comes out of phone. So how can i make it play again on my stereo without reconnecting. i have elite rc3 rom and it has a2dp included.
I don't have the same exact problem you do, but I have a stereo bluetooth headset (Jabra BT8010 [awesome headset btw]) and if you don't wait for your bt to connect to your phone first before you fire up WMP OR connect while WMP is playing, it will freak out and do wierd stuff. For me it would either ignore my connection and play out the phone's speaker or play in my headset in mono mode in horrifyingly bad quality.
I hope that helps
Hi,
Yesterday, I installed a new car stereo and after a lot of frustration installing it, I was happily surprised the A2DP worked by default, just paired my touch pro with my stereo, start playing in wmp and it comes through my stereo system. However during the day I started looking for another player to use (during my breaks of course ) and installed pocket music player bundle ( I don't know if it has anything to do with my problem, just trying to include as much info as I can ). In the evening I enabled bluetooth of my phone again, I think I also had the headphone logo, but when trying to play using pocket music player and wmp, it always just used the speaker of the phone and didn't seem to send anything through A2DP.
Any idea how this can be? Is there a setting somewhere to change what audio is used (A2DP/Speaker/ whatever...)?
TIA!
OK, this seems to have been quite stupid.
Haven't been in my car since, but same behaviour with my logitech a2dp bluetooth headset.
Going into bluetooth settings, "right click" on logi_stereoV01 and "instellen als draadloos stereo" (set-up as wireless stereo) did the trick, probably the same for my CAR--BT,sorry for the stupid post.
Although it would be nice if the touch pro would automatically set the detected bluetooth device as wireless stereo every time, just as it seems to do for setting it headset when in range while turning on the bluetooth.
Sorry for the strange sentences... it was a long day
same problem
i just bought a bluetooth receiver for the car.
it fits in the lighter place and transmits via FM to the car radio.
My htc connected staight away (no code required to me) with the new "car Kit" found, but whatever i try i always have the sound from the htc speaker...
How can i solve this?
Thanx in advace.
Moderator: Please move to Eris general discussion. Thank you.
I have done two factory resets to attempt to solve this with no luck.
I have two BT headsets and my car hands free paired with my Eris. My headsets seem to drop the connection to the phone for no apparent reason. Also, before the upgrade, if I walked out of range of my phone, it would reconnect automatically when I got back in range. This no longer happens.
Also, when I get in my car with my headset connected to my phone, it disconnects the headset and connects the car's hands free system. I want the headset to stay connected in that circumstance. Before the upgrade my headset would stay connected.
Also, when listening to audio (music) on one of my BT headsets, I connect to the aux jack in my car, the BT audio is supposed to disconnect, but that doesn't happen. The audio continues to play through the headset and nothing comes from the aux on the car.
Anyone got any ideas on how to solve these issues?
Get a new phone.
Let me clarify - get a non-Sense phone.
HTC neutered BT in Eclair Sense because it was causing "compatibility issues" or some BS like that with Sense. We discovered this when owners of the Incredible started to complain about it.
It's not a problem, it's a feature!!
Seriously, though, if you root your phone and install an AOSP ROM (like CELB or KaosFroyo) your BT will work exactly right again. That's what worked for me anyway.
The feature comment was funny and right on. Thanks for your help.
One other the thought. The car BT uses the handsfree profile. The Plantronics Pro headset I use is capable of both the headset profile and the handsfree profile. However, when it pairs with the Eris you don't have a choice to use handsfree profile so it pairs under headset profile. I think handsfree profile has priority on the Eris. If I could figure that out, I probably would be better off.
I am experiencing my bluetooth cutting out when the receiver is inserted in the phone. As soon the the receiver is removed from the phone, bluetooth streaming resumes flawless playback. Wouldn't expect that it would cause signals issues with the bluetooth. I don't have another headset to try. It's a cheap china stereo bluetooth headset. I works really well and has good sound. I'm wondering if another headset might be better. I have a bt home connect from xtrememac and I seem to be able to walk around my apartment w/out it cutting out. But it only seems to give me a problem with music and not with voice calls. Any suggestions?
