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.

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.

I'm also interested in this, has anyone ever found a solution?

Skype won't use bluetooth headphone microphone

I find that Skype uses the tablet's microphone even when a bluetooth headset is paired and audio is coming out of the headset speakers. Googling it , this seems to be a longstanding Skype bug. Has anyone found a way to get Skype to use the bluetooth headphone mic?
Thanks
Android needs to enable bluetooth mike system wide, just like in other OS.
There are other apps that can use this, not only skype.
Some of them are web based, like making calls with bobsled.

It's not an Android problem, per se. I use a Motorola stereo bluetooth headset that can be used for phone calls too with my Android phone with no problems on cell phone calls and Sipdroid (for VOIP). I would suspect Skype still has bugs with bluetooth, which is a fairly recent addition to their Android software. OP, the Skype forums might be your best avenue for help. There are numerous users in the Skype forum reporting problems with bluetooth using Skype.

What I am trying to say is that, just like when you plug in the wired headset the sound is rerouted to the headset's earphones (disabling the device's speakers) and the microphone input is rerouted to the headset's mike (disabling the device's mike), the same should occur when the device pairs with a BT headset.
This is what happens when I pair my win xp pc to a BT headset. This way, the audio I/O change is system wide, and can be used by all apps.
Furthermore, additional settings in the device's settings screen could allow the user more control, like simultaneous use of the device's speakers and the BT earphone, (say you want to let a person next to you listen in to your conversation).
P.S. I wonder what the right place is to submit this to Android development...

2 Bluetooth Devices for Phone calls

Hey Guys
Here is my Problem. I Want to use APT-x In Ears from Nuforce whcih are excelent for Audio
However for resons unknown its not a Headset so no Microphone.
Now i dont wanna run around with a second headset, so my idea would be using a seperate small BT microphone in case i need and want a Headset like for driving.
So is that even possible on android 6?
Phone is rooted ofc
atm is a nexus5 but if this works in principal i might switch to an aptx compatible phone, until then i might just use it with nexus9 which has aptx

[Q] Use bluetooth headphones microphone in calls and apps

I'm using a ROM based on Android 5.0, not rooted, but rooting is doable. I have a set of Bluetooth headphones (JBL Mini Reflect BT) and no audio input is taken from their microphone (not in calls, but neither in apps like Recorder or Skype) and the phone's internal microphone is used instead. Would it be possible to use the BT headphones' microphone in the same way as a wired headset's microphone is used when connected (meaning it would override the internal microphone by default and be used in both calls and apps)? If yes, how should this be done (which apps/which settings)? At the moment I cannot use BT microphone in any of the apps/calls.

How to use Samsung Galaxy note 4's microphone instead of the Android car system mic ?

Guys,
I have a Note 4 and an android car navigation system in my car (with built in wifi and Bluetooth (BT)). The microphone of the car navigation system has a very low quality, it is almost not working/usable. I would like to pair my phone to the car system in BT but would like to disable the built- in microphone of the android car system and use the note 4's microphone by default and hear the sound on the car speakers.
Is this possible? How? Do I need to use third party apps ?
Many thanks in advance

Sounds like my mini, I had to dig out my old jawbone earpiece from the old days. I can't talk in the car people tell me to call when I'm not mobile.

Well, thank you for the comments but I don't want my voice to be sent via BT to the car speakers, I just want the Note 4's mic to be used instead of the built in android car navigation system during the calls. Any suggestions ?
I can't help, but want the same as the OP.
