"Hi guys. Can anybody tell me how do I connect to a bluetooth headest manually through WM 6.0?
I understand that WM6.0 is supposed to do it automatically, but it doesnt . There has GOT to be a way for me to sync the TyTnII with my bluetooth headset manually.
My headset is Jabra320s (piece of crap), and it does not allow me to connect to the TyTnII manually through the headest because there is no menu LCD on the headset. Therefore, in order to connect my TyTnII and my Jabra manually, this must be done though the phone."

"hm...its pair'd....here is the situation
even though it is pair'd, when i goto the bluetooth connects scree (device tab) there are no options to connect. the only options that come up are "edit, delete, set as hands-free, set as wireless stereo". theres no connect option. so i cannot tell it to connect....
sometime sit connects automatically, sometimes it simply doesnt, no matter how many times i restart it or the headset. sometimes even when i RE-PAIR it, it still does not connect."
With WM5 on my Qtek8310, i could change each separate profile seperately, so i could set auto-anser on incoming calls for the handsfree profile only.
With WM6.1 on the HTC TD, i can only set auto-answer in Settings, Phone, More..., irrespective of the profile. So, the previous solutions for coping with a lack of manually selecting profiles (i.e. assiging 'vibrate' to the end-call button) won't do for solving my problem.
Any ideas?
Answering a question no one asked but functionality I was after.
Borne of a good post on Reddit if your Android Wear watch is hijacking your bluetooth so your phone won't connect to your cars handsfree:
https://www.reddit.com/r/hwatch/comm...adset_profile/
It's a good app and works well for me.
Got me to thinking whether it could be adapted to automatically forward calls to my phone when out of bluetooth range and back to the phone's voicemail when connected via BT. The problem with the inbuilt call forward function is that when you turn it off it erases all the forwarding options including to the phone's voicemail. What the phone's option to turn off/on the forwarding does is send an MMI code to the cell network to update the forwarding options - the same can be done by just entering them numerically.
The list of MMI codes on wikipedia makes it a versatile tool:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call_forwarding#Europe
Using the Reddit post as a guide I created 2 flows:
1) Forward to voicemail on BT connect -> Trigger: BT device connected (Urbane) -> Action: Call number *004*[voicemail number]#
2) Forward to Urbane on BT disconnect -> Trigger: BT device disconnected (Urbane) -> Action: Call number *004*[watch number]#
Works really well, so if I walk out of BT range the phone forwards calls to the watch if busy/unanswered etc and back to voicemail once back in range.
Hope this is of use to someone.
Hello, I have a Xiaomi Mi A2 and i connected to my Ford's audio and I can recieve calls but I cant make a call from it. It says: "Connection failed"
Any idea? Thanks for the answers.
I have the same problem connecting to my renault car kit. No fix found yet.
Android possible workaround
I have a similar issue with A2 and A2 Lite with my 2016 Kias with UVO infotainment systems.
On most occasions they are paired when the engine is switched on. I can make calls from handset and receive calls and all audio is funneled to the car's audio but no handsfree dialling from the UVO touch panel.
I have also found when it does fully connect and touchscreen is available, as soon as a notification comes in the handsfree no longer works "No service provider" appears on the dial screen
The workaround for me is to go to Settings > Connected devices > Select the handset or go to "Previously connected devices" and select the handset > settings wheel > swipe "Phone calls" to the left (off) then to the right (on), this reinitiates the Bluetooth connection. For me this works the majority of the time, of course you cannot do this when driving!
I have a profile that sets my phone in silent mode when I'm at work.
It is set up with 3 states: wifi near, NOT Bt connected (my car) and NOT headset plugged (any)
The task is simply all volume set to 0. (With the use of tasker plug-in Sound Mode.)
Then have a profile that changes the sound mode to Vibrate Mode when I connect my Samsung Galaxy Buds+ to the phone (Samsung Galaxy S8.)
BUT how do I get tasker to go back to the last profile that was activated when I disconnect my buds?
I have a separate Volumes Task that I run when say, BT connected/disconnected. In that Task, I have Actions set for the various situations.
You could also have a Profile set to watch for another Profiles Active status.

Ok. But what I want if that if I'm at work and my work profile is enabled and I connect my BT headset, the profile changes to my BT profile, and that's as it should. But when a disconnect my BT headset I want tasker to go back to the previous set profile, in this case my work profile. I don't know how to do that in tasker.
You could use variables. You could set a certain variable when work Profile active, and when you disconnect the BT, check for that variable to set work Profile as Active again.
Personally, I wouldn't set your BT headset as a Profile. Instead, just use simple Tasks that would auto-adjust your volume, display brightness, display timeout, lock, etc. And set your Profiles as Home, Work, etc. and make them all auto, based on anything, i.e. near a certain wifi.
