Does anybody know how to config my Blue Angel to play mp3's through my plantronics 510???

Which ROM are you using? Some of them have the capability, some don't... some can have it added, and some can't...
If you provide a little more info then someone will be able to help
Not possible, as far as I know.
The BA can handle it, your headset can't. You can install the A2DP bluetooth profile (needed to stream music via Bluetooth) on your device, but you would still need a (stereo) headset that supports A2DP.
Other than that, I doubt you'd get much pleasure listening to mono music through one ear on a little speaker that's built for cell phone conversations...
If you'd like to listen to music wirelessly, there's a number of bluetooth headsets that support A2DP, all of them stereo and not too expensive.
ive been wanting to stream music to my mates car sytereo when im in his car, but im not sure how its done with this phone can someone guide me
btw id prefer to use s2p as an interface as im sure its usable
I don't what s2p is but I stream to my stereo headset - no problem.
I can't imagine it being any different than setting up a headset. Put the car's bluetooth in setup mode and tell your phone to do a new bluetooth connection.
And if the car doesn't have built in BT, then you would need something like this>>>

There is a thread for this already:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=403795&highlight=bt+stereo
I tried wired w/ the usb adapter before but I am using A2DP for wireless streaming. (Was using Sony DS-220 because it allows battery charging whle playing but recently change my head unit to JVC BT-1 with build in BT support)

So, I have a new Toyota Avalon with built-in bluetooth. Was wondering if anyone knew of hacks, tricks, tweaks - software or hardware - to permit a2dp to show up when connected through bluetooth. It says HANDSFREE but doesn't show WIRELESS STEREO on my ATT TILT (stock rom).
Anyway to do this?
Also, for anyone with a Toyota and bluetooth, is there any way to get Microsoft Voice Command activated from the steering wheel? On all my external car bluetooth speakers, hitting the call button activates Voice Command. Doesn't do it with the built-in Toyota system...unless I am overlooking something.
BUMP....
Is there someone on the forum with a Toyota and bluetooth?
I am bummed about this...the only way I can stream or play audio is use the AUX jack which is fine EXCEPT it means that the phone cannot be used via the built-in blue tooth...the other party can be heard by the car microphones don't pick up my voice (presumably because the AUX connector somehow hijacks it???!!)
Any help would be appreciated.

That's what would happen if the car's BT did not support A2DP. My guess would be that your car only supports handsfree.
I'm in the same boat. I have an '07 Sienna and I have been looking for a way to connect AD2P bluetooth. So far, I'm having no luck.
I've thought about mounting my i.tech clip inside the dash to the Aux input. That means I'd have to modify the i.tech to work when power is connected. I would also have figure out a way to use the Aux port directly (with another device) if I wish. It is always something...
The '09 Toyota's support the AD2P.
works for me
so, I am in a '10 toyota. When I get into the car, it will pair up as handsfree, but does not show AD2P initially. For me at least, if I go to the BT tab on the audio screen, and press and hold the play button, it will start playing from the last playlist I was using. The steering wheel seek up seek down work to skip forward and back.
The first time I needed to initiate some music playing on the phone, and then tell the car to connect bluetooth through the BT tab on the audio menu, I think it hides the AD2P unless the phone requests it, and treats it separately from the handsfree connection.
I wish you luck- for short trips, it is great to be able to just sit down in the car, and have the radio play my mp3s without having to muck with my phone or cables.
Is there a app that will allow music to play thru the Bluetooth in my car?
I have a stock radio that has bluetooth, I can make & receive calls in my car using the bluetooth. However I can NOT play music on my phone and hear it thru my car speakers.
Is there a app solution to this or something else to get this to work
TIA
I would love this...
also I
I'm not understanding the question. Any music player on the G1 (with 1.5) can play music over AD2P through your car headunit. I do it all the time. I can also pause/play and track-forward/back using the headunit's controls.

Not all bluetooth devices support the a2dp profile, some just act as a headset, I've seen similar requests for people wanting audio streamed to a blue tooth headset that doesn't support a2dp either.
As long as your running 1.5 and the latest radio that goes with it, you should be able to get A2DP working without any other applications. Just pair up your car stereo with your phone and it should automatically detect the profile and start piping audio through.

Exactly, I believe my car stereo does NOT support A2DP. I have no problems playing/hearing music thru my Motorola HT820 or my PC.

DAVID-G: is my PC
Bluetooth Handsfree: is my car
Motorola HT820: is my headset

Long press "Bluetooth Handsfree" and select options. Under profiles you should see a Media profile and it should be checked. If you do not see this, your stereo does not support A2DP.
edit: If your stereo has a line out jack, you can get something like this to make your system A2DP capable without buying a whole new stereo.

Thanks for the tip
I checked under options and it does not show a "Media" profile
My stereo does have a line out jack, but Im not sure I want to spend $100+ on a gadget.
Im hoping some bright app developer can make a app to some how trick my stereo into thinking its a call as my phone plays music
Wishful thinking? I think not, Im sure someone can make it work. I do remember when people said transfering files via Bluetooth was impossible! But now we can with Bluex.

Not possible. The way bluetooth works is that the both devices have to have the same profile in common to communicate with each other. Your phone supports it, your car stereo does not. With OBEX, other devices supported it but the phone did not. To get this working you would either need to hack your stereo to enable the A2DP profile, get a bluetooth gateway (like what I have) or get a new stereo receiver that supports A2DP out of the box.
From experience I can say that the gateway is the best option. I got mine on sale for under $50 at buy.com and it works beautifully. My phone automatically pairs with it when my car turns on and I can make/receive calls as well as listen to music no problem.

He already said other handsets support sending audio to BT devices that don't support A2DP, it's just a matter if the underlying Android OS supports sending audio streaming to non-A2DP devices, eg faking a phone call basically, or not. Or if it can easily be hacked in by someone.
I'm guessing this may require screwing about with the underlying OS code, an app alone may not be able to do it without OS support.
At least I understand the question better now You want an app developer to create something that allows the phone to make up for what's lacking in your headunit.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the "headset" profile mono by definition? Are you cool with giving up stereo and audio quality just to get your music over bluetooth to your headunit?
I won't say it's not possible. I've been wrong before on pronouncements like that. But app development is driven by need in the Android world (usually the developer's need first). I hope there's a big enough need that someone will help you out.

The same arguments are made about MP3 v lossless compression, and it turns out people do accept these sort of limitations after all
I don't know enough about the bluetooth standards to even know where to begin making such an app, and I don't plan to start reading up to find out
While not as cheap as a BT audio gateway option, but you can get an inline BT attachment to suit non-BT enabled car radios to support A2DP and for those of you still using phones to talk to others you can even use it as a hands free car kit which uses the car speaks...

I'm glad my unit already does this. But I never use it.
Its worse than just being mono... headset profile is actually a much lower quality... phone quality.
Bluetooth A2DP Audio Gateways
I've been trying to do the same thing as OP, except my stereo does NOT have bluetooth. It does have an aux in down by the cigarette lighter. I've been googling like a fool and researching available bluetooth gateways, thanks to the poster that pointed us towards that Kensington unit. I'm not willing to spend $100 US on this functionality. I have, however, found a nice little device I plan to pick up soon.

Hope this helps OP and any others that may have similar issues.

LOL your missing out... 16gb sd card and you can for get about using other mp3 player. *couch ipod couch zune couch*
anyway there's a long tread about 3.5 bluetooth dongle Here
I know it's old, but in case anyone stumbles on this thread, try btmono (an app on Google play) It puts audio through a mono headset such as that described above. Cheers
Hello everyone,
I can pair my car's bluetooth and Diamond flawlessly... However I am also wondering if it is possible to use the car speakers as output in order to listen to mp3s in my phone... ofcourse via bluetooth...
I know that people can listen to music via their bluetooth dongles on the ear. From which menu or program should i also try for the car?
Thanks in adv.
if the bluetooth in your car support ad2p then it's just a question about bonding them and choosing stereo headset on the phone
but if your car don't there is no way
Thanks, unfortunetely there's not such a function (as far as I checked on the web)
