[Q] Audiobooks - remote to rewind? - General Questions and Answers

Hey, i've got the Sprint version of the Note 5.
Is there a way I can have some sort of remote control to press "rewind" on my audiobook app? This is for while I'm driving and connected to my car stereo via 3.5mm audio jack.
In a previous version of Android (I don't remember which) I use to be able to have my bluetooth headset connected and press a button to rewind 10 seconds back and still have it play through my car stereo via the 3.5mm audiojack. After the Android update (a while back), every time I try to use my bluetooth headset for the rewind function, the phone automatically switches the audio output from 3.5mm to the bluetooth headset. So, i'd have to manually change the audio output of the phone back to 3.5mm every time I want to hit rewind...no good.
so, how can I have my phone playing the audiobook through my car stereo via 3.5mm plug and be able to remotely rewind anytime I want?

*BUMP* anyone??

Bluetooth CAR radio with HTC TP

Did anyone try this? I'm thinking of buying a new radio WITH bluetooth..
IF the bluetooth radio stuff works, then tomtom/music could go via my HTC which would be awesome... or is it possible to play MP3's via an USB outlet, or have some auxout to my htc?
A few months ago, I bought a head unit (Dual XHD6425) that has front panel aux out, usb, and bluetooth. I originally got it for its 3.5 mm auxillary out for my ipod, but I then bought the add-on bluetooth module and started using my cellphone and now my Fuze. Bluetooth audio streaming (A2DP) is much more convenient as there are no wires to deal with. The TF3D music program supports AVRC so you can use the unit's fast fwd/rewind/stop buttons to control playback. Tomtom also routes its audio through the bluetooth interface as well. Of course, you also get hands-free calling, which is great as I usually forget to put on or turn on my bluetooth headset when I enter my car.
My head unit could also play music from USB sources (name hard drives, etc, but strangely not ipods). The unit was able to read from the Fuze since it can mount itself as a storage drive providing access to the microsd card. However, in this mode, I'd have to scroll through songs using the unit's interface, which was not very easy to navigate. Still, I can use the USB port to charge/power devices if I needed to do so.
^^^Ditto what he said^^^
My Xterra has a Pioneer single din headunit with built-in Bluetooth. A2DP streaming works great, but sometimes sounds a little tinny or washed-out. If you have added a subwoofer to your vehicle then get a headunit with an independent subwoofer level control. Some songs will be very bassy, while others will need some added punch...this can be adjusted very easily especially with a remote-mount bass level knob.
You can also sync your contacts over to the BT headunits and set speed dials as well as picture dials in some cases. My Pioneer replacement will be a double din 7" touchscreen dvd player with BT. Make sure it has plenty of audio controls/adjustments...digital time correction is a nice feature to help balance sound and set stage.

[Q] calls and media control using bluetooth and wired head phones

Is there any possibility to use bluetooth clips (Motorola S605, SE MW600, Nokia AD-57 etc.) as mic for answering calls and controlling player (play, pause, next, previous) and using wired headphones connected DIRECTLY to mobile phone in order to use high quality 3.5mm headphones instead of listening through them over bluetooth and having this ****ty sound? Thanks in advance.
Yes, for bluetooth for sure.
Well just to be sure - I connect wired headphones to SGS directly (not to the bluetooth clip 3.5mm hole), pair the bluetooth clip with SGS, start player and listen to music through headphones and have ability to start-stop player by bluetooth clip buttons. When the call comes I hear it in headphones and start-stop player or push call answer button on bluetooth clip. After pushing answer button I hear calling person's voice in headphones but talk to the bluetooth mic. After call is ended I can start-stop playing music again by bluetooth buttons. This is 100% tested or it's is appeared to be working? Thanks.
Could anyone confirm my last post? Thanks.
Bump any answer?
Just tried, no go sorry.
If you could find an AVRCP profile device without A2DP or mono-bluetooth output it might work, but I don't expect any exist.

[Q] tomtom and Music through Bluetooth

Hi all
Having got a new HTC ONE I have decided to use my sensation as a mapping/gps device.
I have got tomtom for android on it and in th epast I have just used the phones internal speaker.
My car stereo has a aux in jack so I was wondering if it is possible to get a Bluetooth adaptor to play the audio into the car stereo
But ( there always has to be a but) can I stream music at the same time?
ideally I would like the tomtom to cut out the music but I don't think it out puts the correct profile but even if it just plays over the top that could work.
is this possible or if not would it work via a cabled connection?
thanks

[Q] Using aux cable and Bt headset at the same time..

Is it possible to plug the device to auxillary port on a radio and use bluetooth headset at the same time? I like to play my music through the aux cable from time to time,it'd be nice not to have to unplug it everytime a call comes in,or when id rather have an sms read out into my ear via bluetooth headset and continue playback afterwards.

[Q] How to enable Audio output via 2.5mm jack and Bluetooth

Hi All,
After much searching for this simple request, how to enable Audio output to the headphone / 2.5mm audio jack and output to bluetooth speakers at the same time.
This is not a request how to get music to play on bluetooth mono headphones etc.
I am wanting to have my Nexus 5 plugged into the speakers and amp in one room, then also have my UE Boom in the next room playing audio via bluetooth.
As soon as I plug in the speakers via the jack, the bluetooth sound output is muted.
Going into Bluetooth settings and unticking music and then ticking music starts audio playing via bluetooth but stops audio via 2.5mm jack.
Any settings I need to know about? Apps or custom ROMs to do this simple feature.
Think of this as a keep playing to speakers when headphones are plugged in. Possible in Ubuntu, is it possible on Android?
Many Thanks,
Rob.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Just to bump the thread, as I know how fast paced the Nexus 5 forum is, and I have waited 10 days before re-asking.
Anyone with information that could help?
Many Thanks,
Rob.
