Bluetooth- disable bluetooth mic, keep speakers.

Hi all, rooted-stock 4.0.4 on a Verizon Galaxy S3. I have an Alpine EX-10 bluetooth kit for the car that uses the A2DP profile. Works great for music, it reports it has a mic, but the mic doesn't work (and has never worked, on iPhone and other devices).
What I'm trying to accomplish is to be able to still play music through bluetooth, but have voice commands and phone calls use the onboard mic instead of the bluetooth one. I don't want to have to switch BT on and off, ideally I'd like nav directions through bluetooth, but still be able to speak addresses into the phone itself.
Is there an app/tweak that can 'split' the audio devices so I can use both at once?
Hope this makes sense, and thanks in advance for the help.

[Q] How Does The Phone's Noise Cancelling Work???

Hi!
I noticed (wasn't really hard to) that calls made from cars using stock Hands Free systems dramatically lowers sound quality on the listener's end. That is totally common, even in high end cars, although in those cases it is (a little bit) less annoying because to better soundproofing, but generally issue remains the same: no noise cancelling. It kind of strikes me, how can a tiny bluetooth headset have that feature, and $100k car not have it.
I pair my Galaxy s5 with my Subaru car audio system to play music via car speakers, but making calls and repeating every word 5 times is an utter misery for both sides of the conversation. Using unpaired phone or bluetooth headsets like Jabra is the only way i can make calls from my car.
So:
The question is, if there is a way to use phone's noise cancelling feature (third party apps?) for the calls while paired via bluetooth with my car's Hands Free? Can my phone process sound from my car's mic?

thought about maybe getting a bluetooth headset?

Very Clever! Thank You!
My next question is: how can I pair 2 bluetooth devices to my phone at the same time, so I can make calls on the BT headset and listen to the music from phone on my car audio without switching between them...

Just to clarify...
I meant connected. I know I can pair multiple devices with one phone, but there can be only one active connection at a time, am I right?

yes unfortunately you are.
to the best of my knowledge you can only have one active connection

[Q] echo with aux cable - Lollipop 5.1

Hi, I have noticed that if i use AUX cable (with 2 cuts - only stereo and without microphone ) during a call there is a HUGE echo effect for the caller.
I have verified this problem also with AUX input of my car and with earphones (without microphone). This bug is coming out after upgrade to lollipop 5.1. If I'm using earphone with microphone i do not have any problem.
So I can summarise the issue in this step:
- nexus 5 with lollipop 5.1;
- voice echo for the caller using aux cable or earphone without microphone;
- using earphone WITH microphone i do not have any problem.
Any of you have noticed the same problem, or you can check out?
Do you know if there is already some solution to this problem?
Thanks in advance
Ivan

This problem has been present since day 1 with the nexus 5 for me. I bought a kinevo Bluetooth module to plug into my aux port. It has a built-in mic and buttons to change tracks in songs that works on all apps ive tried it with. It also has a button to answer and hang up calls, as well as pause music. Zero echo, and picks up my voice great. I got it for 36 dollars on amazon. I use that with a cd mount car phone holder. And have sideloaded google car home. So when i get in my car car home automatically starts, and closes itself when i get outta my car. Its the pertect car setup.

No other guys have had this problem? Is it Kinivo my last solution?
Thx in advance
Ivan

All guys that must use nexus 5 on car must be buy this Kinovo? Pls give me your solution, it is too hard drive and talk at the same time.
I'm sure that u will help me
thx in advance

App suggestion for fitness instructor

I was talking to a friend and he is a fitness instructor..
He recently started his own gym with a few friend.. and asked for the best solution to add a mic into the music system..
Currently he is playing his music from computer via wire to a bose wireless speaker (30 Touch). I could suggest him to buy a stupid expensive uhf mic system and add into his system..
However I am wondering won't it be a much better system to use his smart phone and just bluetooth it to the wireless speaker instead? I mean have a headset plug it and use it as a mic and have the both the mic audio and the music play out and stream to bluetooth speaker..
Anyone know of such app.
If there is no such app.. Is there even an app to allow mixing of mic from headset and music playback together (live) and output through headphone. If there is such thing at least I could suggest to use a headset splitter and a bluetooth transmitter to send that signal to the speaker.
He currently have an apple but if he needed to get a cheap android phone just for that use, so be it..
Please let me know.

You aren't making any sense.
What do you mean "use a microphone from Bluetooth without a built-in microphone"?
I don't think a Bluetooth headset will work like that, it's a hardware limitation built into your device, not a software limitation.
You'll need to get a microphone that is designed for what you're trying to do.
