Is there any way to connect bluetooth and have audio go through two devices? I have a helmet and a bike that could seamlessly control the audio coming out of my old phone simultaneously. Is there a hack or app that could allow this to happen with the pixel?

I searched here and Google I could not get any results for what I am looking for.
I have a slew of old phones at my disposal TP TP2 and a Hero. All have bluetooth. what i am looking for is an app or hack to windows mobile 6+ or Android that will allow me to use one of the old phones as a bluetooth audio gateway from my EVO to the (old) phone that's connected hard wired into the aux via headphone jack.
Basically making the (old phone) work like the Blackberry bluetooth audio gateway or the belkin. I want to be able to wire the phone up audio and power and keep it in the glove box and have the bluetooth connect to the EVO as AD2P where the audio gets routed from the EVO > Old Phone > Stereo via headphone jack.
Any help or suggestions would be helpful. Between android and windows mobile I thought something like this would have been out already but I cant seem to find what I am looking for.
got to thinking maybe if there was an app i could run on the evo that made it show up as a2dp to other devices or vise versa.
Hello All,
I just bought a used Lexus and it has bluetooth for phone, but not streaming. I have an aux port in the console and a usb port so I would like to add a bluetooth adapter for streaming music. I am looking for one that turns on automatically with the car (doesnt require me to push a button), will pair automatically with my phone (again no button pushing), and can be powered off a usb port. I do not want one that does hands free, just one that does streaming only.
I am having trouble finding one that auto turns on and connects. Does anyone have a good suggestion?
I ended up getting the Blackberry Music Gateway 2 and it works just great: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00WPYIY3O/
Hi!
the radio in my car doesn't have bluetooth (BT) so I need to use a BT audio adapter that I plug in the audio jack. THis would be the first device that I want to connect with my Honor 8. Because I don't want to switch tracks over the phone display, I would like to connect a bluetooth remote too that is attached to the steering wheel. FInally I would like to use a BT headset to make/answer calls while driving.
So there would be 3 BT devices that need to be connected to my phone at the same time...
Have any of you tried this? Should / can this work?
Thanks for your thoughts!

You can do that if you use 3 different protocol.
1. BT headset-phone audio
2.Bt aux-media audio(this give music audio and dedicated music control)
3. BT remote-have to be some kind of input type.

I haven't had any luck connecting to my car's Bluetooth with emui 5.1 so I wish you the best of luck bud! I'm back to the aux cord life until something gets fixed. Please keep us posted on how things work out for you.
I can't find a way to have both my headset and car stereo connected at the same time without changing the bluetooth profiles in settings. Samsung s8 can do this automatically/natively. both bluetooth devices show connected for phone and media audio.
I use a bluetooth headset on my oneplus 6 (trialing it) during working hours for calls and music.. when i get in my car, I sometimes make calls on my headset... but in between calls, I want to listen to music on my car stereo. That's fine.... IF i remove media audio bluetooth profile from my headset first...
But wait..... Sometimes I want to transfer the call from my headset to my car stereo, and/or vice versa. I don't want to change the Bluetooth profile manually every single time i want to use a different device which I have been having to do.
Pretty please can you try connect your nex to 2 devices that have phone and media capabilities and see if you can connect them both at the same time? If so... try and switch calls between the 2 without changing any settings in the bluetooth? Will you take a screenshot of the bluetooth settings page once they are connected too? I appreciate your time.
Only Samsung is making what you want. (Afair)
Yes, you can pair two Bluetooth devices at a time but only one can be used/selected for calling. If you want to pair two Devices of this type you have to disable Media or Calling for the first connected devices. Then the other one is connecting fine.
I use this in my car. Bluetooth streams music to a FM Transmitter and is connected to my car for calls. In this case (when one device is detected as media only) you can connect the Calling devices without a flaw.
Is it possible to keep BT connected to two devices at the same time?
I have a fitness band with no built in GPS and when running outdoor it needs pairing with its app to track GPS data, but I tipically listen to music via BT headphone while running.
thx
I ride a mountain bike connecting with BT ear buds for music, BT media controller on handlebars (for volume, skip, pause etc) and also connected to BT bike GPS, all with no issues
Yes, it is possible....I have my my samsung smartwatch connected and when I go for a walk I connect my buds pro as well...No issues
Thx will try again, maybe I did something wrong
It can. I have mine connected to the gear, razer anzu and if i get in the car - it connects to the car as well. All at the same time.
I'm not sure how it works with other devices but in order forbme to pair with both of my bt speakers I have to enable them both in media output. Pull down the the notifications bar, it's right next to device control.
