How do I turn off the prompt when a Bluetooth headset is attached and making a call where it asks you for the audio source

Same question for HTC and a smartwatch (Samsung Gear S2). When paired to the watch, the One M8 (and also the M9) maddeningly makes you select the phone handset manually for every incoming and outgoing call. Anyone know an override or way to change the default setting to handset instead of first-in-list Gear watch?

This should work for many HTC models having trouble pairing with Infini BT handsfree included in the DVD Nav system.
Start the pairing as shown in the Infiniti handbook.
When the Touch Pro says it has paired but the Infiniti just hangs on the connection screen, make an outgoing call (anywhere wiil do, why not call the girl/wife for a change ) and pairing will complete.
If you have had a previous phone paired to the Infiniti, you may need to actually select the HTC from the phone settings menu on the Infiniti.
Incoming and outgoing calls will work OK then.
Phonebook entries can only be sent one by one by setting the Infiniti to receive a contact and then 'Beaming' one from your contact list as you would to another phone.
I have a Voyager legend. How can I configure my phone so I can:
A) use my local voice dialing with the headset?
B) use voice input as a method... right now if I push the mic, it just never turns red and available for me to speak

If u paired it and this features BOTH weren't automatically enabled could be a phone limitation
Hey Guys -
I've had my Gear S2 for a few months now and even though I enjoy it, have a nagging issue I can't seem to fix. I've searched everywhere and tried a few things, but no luck.
My Issue
My Gear S2 is obviously connected to my phone via bluetooth most of the time. If / when I power on my headset (M 165), it does not work as phone still goes to the Gear S2. In Bluetooth Settings, it shows both connected, but the M165 says "(No Phone) behind it. The only way I can use the headset is if I turn off bluetooth on my Gear S2. The same thing happens when I connect to my car's bluetooth as it says "No Phone" too. (see attached screenshot)
What I've Tried
- Disabling "Phone Audio" for the Gear S2: When I do this, the watch disconnects from BT. When I reconnect it, Phone Audio is enabled again
- Bluetooth Auto Connect: I installed this and set the Gear S2 to enable everything but Media and Call audio then set the headset to have only those two enabled. Didn't make a difference when testing as things still connected the same way
- Tasker: I've tried using a variety of plugins to get things to connect correctly, but still no go
Specs
- Phone: HTC One A9 / Marshmallow 6.0.1 / Rooted / s-off
- Watch: Gear S2 / Latest Firmware
- Headset: PLT_M165
Any suggestions? Am I perhaps using Bluetooth Auto Connect wrong? Thanks!
Have you tried another Bluetooth headset? I recommend you to try it if you didn't. I am not experiencing this issue and here is my setup:
I have Note 5 with latest Android 6.0.1 available.
Gear s2 (3g/4g model from T-Mobile) with latest firmware available.
I have Jawbone ERA (few year old model)
I also have Plantronics Legend
When watch is connected to my phone and then I connect any of the above Bluetooth headsets to my phone, then I am able to make/received calls on the headsets and in Bluetooth settings I see "phone" where as your pictures show as "no phone".
How did you connect your watch to your phone by just pairing via Bluetooth or through Gear Manager app?
I have this same issue with my Pixel 2XL it seems that having a samsung phone fixes this issue but any other android phone will exhibit this issue. if you disable phone call audio to the watch everything else will work properly. but you cannnot take calls on the watch.
Has anyone found a better fix then this???
Hi everyone,
I'm using a rooted nexus 6p with Verizon and just got the frontier s3 last week. I have the watch connected to the phone via Bluetooth. I noticed that whenever I receive a call and I answer it, if I put up the phone to my ear I can hear them but they can't hear me. I figured maybe the s3 is connected, but I don't get any sounds from the watch and if I talk into the watch during the calls, people still can't hear me.
Is there a setting or fix that I'm missing? Thanks.

Sounds weird. Check the settings on the phone. Settings > Bluetooth > click on the paired watch. See what's set for audio/voice calls etc.
How are you answering the call? With the phone itself?

When I check the Bluetooth settings, it says it's paired with the gear s3. Also, 'used for' phone audio and contact sharing are the boxes checked under the gear s3 bt settings.
I don't hear any calls from the watch, just from the phone's speakers.

Is there any way to have my Gear S3 Frontier LTE connect to my (Samsung Note 4, Android 7) phone but not for phone audio? I often use another headset for calls etc, and that interferes (and then I have to go into the phone BT
settings and turn the call audio for the S3 off before the other headset takes the call audio.
My Gear S3 has LTE, so it does not not need to take the call via the phone. Either I take it on the phoen viw my other headset, or I take it via LTE on the Gear S3 (at least that's what I want).
I haven't touched an N4 in awhile, and I may not be correct on this (please understand, I am only guessing based on memory). That being said - If you are on Stock Samsung Android7 OS, I believe the version of android you're on does not have the additional controls for Bluetooth devices. The additional controls would allow you to turn off call audio, under the GearS3 BT connection profile. If you've rooted the phone look into a mod that exposes it.
I have the option in the attached screenshot only. I can turn that 'call audio' off in the profile, but that will disconnect the watch from the phone completely, so that not even notifications etc are transferred.
Also, I have to do this every time after connecting. I would loke for the watch to connect for all non-audio (no media nor call audio) purposes automatically.
