[Q] Mango and Bluetooth Profiles

There is a lot of talk about Mango right now. Does anyone know if the Bluetooth stack is going to include more profiles? In particular interest to me is the Serial Port Profile (SPP).

I'm not sure, but I don't think so. On this moment bt in wp7 mango has minimum functionality.

How bout Bluetooth profiles for video sound?

external gps
I know that Microsoft does not officially support many bluetooth profiles except headsets and a few others listed at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2449475.
Is it possible to get the radios in a WM7 phone and a device that uses a profile excluded from Microsoft's list to communicate at all?
I reckon external GPS units all use the SPP profile (serial port?)

[Q] How to permanently change the oom priority of apps?

Is there developer or anybody out there that knows a developer who can create a script or app that allows users to permanently change the oom priority of applications. I have an app that I need to continue running because I use it all the time with my bluetooth headset, but when android kills them, then don't have the ability to detect that the bluetooth headset is still connected unless I disconnect and then connect the headset.

Got this recommendation from Tonyp over at his ROM's thread for LG O2x

The best choice for me is using Xposed Installer and App Settings module for it. In there you can find Resident option to keep app resident in memory.

Improving car compatibility with Bluetooth AVRCP setting

If your car has an older head unit with Bluetooth compatibility, you may have seen that with Android O, some of the metadata won't show up when playing audio from the phone. I found a tweak in the Android developer options that fixes it:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2017/0...ight-developer-preview-2-adds-avrcp-selector/
On my Honda Accord 2014, I set it to AVRCP 1.4 or 1.5, and Bluetooth shows the artist/track/etc again. Pandora runs more reliably as well.

There's no way I can get the audio system in my 2017 Subaru Forester to show remaining time on individual playing audio tracks. I have tried the various different developer options settings and it doesn't seem to make any difference.

I can confirm that setting version to 1.4, do fix this issue for pioneer radios. (Tested on DEH-X8500DAB).

After changing this, I can now switch tracks over bluetooth in my Honda Fit. Thanks!

In my case, after upgrading to Android 8.1 (Xiaomi Mi 5 @ AOSPExtended.mod by DennySPB) track infos won't work.
It doesn't matter if I choose AVRCP 1.3, 1.4, 1.5 or 1.6. It's just "no time, no title" etc.
Any other suggestions to fix that - apart from downgrading to 7.0?

(post removed by author, as it was not directly applicable to thread)

In my case, this solution worked, but I only post it "as is", without any warranty, that it will work for you.
1. Unpair audio device.
2. Go to Applications > show systems apps
3. Find "Bluetooth" and "Bluetooth MIDI", clear data for both of them
4. Go to developer settings, change AVRCP to 1.5 or 1.6
5. Restart phone.
6. Pair audio again.

Hi, thanks for the information, just reporting that this didn't work for me.

Bluetooth paired devices - disable multimedia sound on Huawei

Hello,
I have a simple case:
- I have PX5 radio in car
- and Huawei Mate 20 Lite as a phone
Both devices are paired with bluetooth.
Since PX5 radio is full Android device that can run Google Play apps itself.
I would like to use bluetooth only for calling and as trigger for Tasker(start WiFi hotspot).
But since it is possible my phone sends also multimedia sound(but it won't be played on radio, since specific app for A2DP is not working - and I'm fine with that), I would like my phone to simply play multimedia itself, not via bluetooth.
I know it is possible in vanilla Android(https://fscl01.fonpit.de/userfiles/6983662/image/androidpit-lollipop-bluetooth-forget-w628.jpg) but since Huawei has it's "awesome" custom settings menu it is not there, do You guys have any idea how to change that settings?
ADB or any application would be great.
I'm not interested about any solution with root.

Apparently there is small "i" button on the right of paired device in bluetooth settings - not that easy to click(because when I tried to hit it for a first time I couldn't hit it correctly - that why I created that topic) - where You can change what sound is passed via bluetooth.

Looking for ROM with Bluetooth HID support

So I found out there are some apps that let you use your phone as a Nintendo Switch controller but they require your phone to support Bluetooth HID profiles, which the OP6 does not.
Does anyone know if there are Android 10 ROMs that have Bluetooth HID profiles enabled? Thanks.
