headphones dont work :( - Touch CDMA Android Development

Hi all, so I'm in the airport and just plugged in the USB headphones to listen to some music (for the first time since upgrading to Android) and am sad to report no sound comes through the earpiece. Once I unplug the headphones the music plays fine out of the phone speaker
Anyone know of a solution for this? Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance!

Using eclair? Audio routing doesn't work yet.
Sorry, sorry - BLUETOOTH audio routing doesn't work in eclair. The wired headphones should work.

My USB-to-headphone adapter works fine with Warm Donut. I was streaming Pandora to my home stereo just last night.

The audio works on the super eclair and warm donut builds with my wired head phones that came with the touch

I use my usb adaptor for my car all the time

same
it doesnt work for me (either)
running latest everything. so not sure.

Pull out the headset, pause the music, turn off screen, plug headset in, turn back on and unpause. It work on every single build I've ever use(except Incubus Super Eclair RLS2)

Bluetooth Headset

Hey Guys..
im relatively new to the nexus one and android in general (coming from symbian)..
so far everything works great.. but there is one thing that really annoys me.. my BT Headset "Plantronics Voyager 520" only works with Phone calls..
I used to hide it under my hair to listen to music or watch movies in school but now the Sound comes from the Nexus Speakers even tho it is paired with my Headset.. only thing that works is telephone calls
i read somewhere that it is becuase the Nexus One is a 2.1 BT Device and my Headset is 2.0..
Any Ideas how to fix this?
Thanks in advance

[ISSUE] No Sound Through Stereo Speakers

It's hard to explain what my problem is but here goes nothing.
It seems I am the only person with this problem so I was hoping someone could try to reproduce it and possibly offer a solution.
When I have my I9000 connected through the car speakers (or any audio output with an AUX cable), the sound is mute when trying to make a call (hands free). Sound works fine when playing music and using navigation. Can anyone verify what I am talking about?
When I was using the Captivate using the stock ROMS...I didn't have this "no sound" issue. When I flashed any I9000 ROM on it though, again, the sound wouldn't work through the stereo speakers when trying to make a call.
Any takers?

Advice. Best way to get music to the car?

I'm just curious what would be the best way to get all of the new music on my Captivate onto my car speakers when driving. I have built in bluetooth in the car and would love if there is a way to use a software solution to stream the music. If that's not possible I'm a bit lost on what the preferred method would be. Thanks in advance for any assistance!

Scroll down to the bluetooth section and there is a "setup" portion
If your BT stereo supports A2DP, then just stream from the Cappy to the radio. I do that and it sounds great. I also have a 3.5mm jack on the front, but that is an analog signal and the difference in sound quality, while slight, is noticeable. My car radio links automatically with my phone when I get in (so long as BT is enabled on the phone) and both hands-free and BT audio profiles are connected. All I have to do is start the music player on the phone and the radio switches input automatically. It also switches to phone profile and pauses the music player when a call comes in.
Thanks for both of the responses.
I'll have to check the link in a minute and I'll have to research about my BT connection supporting A2DP as well, but I appreciate the options. Hopefully one will work.
I'm really hoping the A2DP option works, that would be ideal for me, but it is a VW factory BT option that's on the car, so I'm not sure how sophisticated it is.
I'll try to remember to get back here with a post, in the event someone in the future stumbles on this thread looking for the same advice.
Auxiliary cable?

I have a Captivate running a custom ROM with a custom Kernel.
There had been some grumblings about the speaker port not working correctly for quite a while, but I think they have now resolved it.
I wasn't sure if this was going to be an issue, so I was hoping for something along the lines of a BT connection solution.
Unfortunately, I just read the following piece of garbage info from a different site:
Audio streaming is NOT Supported on 2010 Passat, EOS, Tiguan, CC, Jetta TDI sedan or Touareg
Looks like Aux. cable for me.

Man, that's too bad. You'd think a 2010 vehicle would be up to date with the tech. I know some older cars were hands-free profile only because A2DP was not widespread, but a 2010 not having it is just silly. My radio is an aftermarket Sony I bought in 2009 and it not only supports music streamin via BT and has a 3.5mm AUX input, it has a USB port that I can put a thumbdrive with music in and a port in the back for an iPod (if I was stupid enough to own one and pay for the optional cable) and it also has HD radio. VW is usually further forward than most imports. Oh well, at least you can do the cable thing. Get a quality one, some cheapies are known to short contacts and cause problems.
I use a AUX input in my car and it works pretty well. The only complaint I really have is the sound is at a lot lower volume than radio and mini-usb port.

Not to point out the obvious, but you do realize that the AUX port is multi-volumed.....right?
You turn up the volume on your handset AND you turn up the volume on your car stereo.
From what I've read, it appears you should turn your "media volume" up to 50-80% and leave it there, then use your car stereo volume button to alter the overall volume.
If it's still not loud enough from there, either you have a short or something is up with your output.
Your ears should be bleeding.

Yea, I turn the volume up all the way on my phone whenever I plug it in. It was the same way when I used my iPod Touch.

[Q] BT Headset Problem.

I have a problem with BT Headset + Bose MIE2i Mobile Headset Combination..
It Would NOT work together.. Each thing alone works perfectly, but not together.
i have just bought Samsung HM3700 which supports 3.5mm headset, so I connected it to Bose MIE2I headset I was using before.
the problem is that when i turn music or video on, all i hear is little bit of music and alot of noises.
But when i keep pressing 'talk button' on bose while playing music, the sound is so clean and crisp.
Does anyone have had same kindof trouble and If anyone knows how to fix this problem, please let me know!
Thank you!

[Q] Are you able to play music in your car through Bluetooth?

I am able to connect to my car and use it to make and receive calls with no issues. When I attempt to stream music to the car it connects but the car will not let me switch to the phone audio to play the stream. I think it could be a bug with the ROM.
Anyone else able to use Bluetooth for music streaming in their car?
getting my One wednesday if my Best Buy rep was accurate, and BlueTooth music better work, that's what I always use for playback!
Using it with an HS3000 hard wired into my headunit for the audio profile while simultaneously connected to the headunit itself for the phone profile and its working fine. Perhaps theres a firmware update for the headunit in your car?
I'm not able to get it to see my Sony Automotive Bluetooth player but I haven't messed with it while not driving to really go in to it.

You are receiving the audio through the 3.5mm jack. My phone connects to the car and audio calls work great. I'm also having an issue with my TV. It shows connected but no audio plays, however when I press the volume on the phone it changes on the TV. I'm thinking something is missing or messed up in the ROM. I'm not sure if this is happening with other versions. It would be good to know.

Well your question seemed to be a question of bluetooth connectivity using the audio profile, so i gave you one example of when it does work for me. It doesn't matter that its outputting from the HS3000's 3.5mm in to a line in in my car, the audio gets to the dongle is the point i was getting at. Here are a few other things i have tested with it since i was curious as to whether this is a bug:
Moto S305, LG Tone, LG Tone+, Francois et Mimi Trois speaker, generic bt speaker i got as a door prize, and a samsung soundbar. Nobody can help you test whether there is a bug if there no information as to what you're trying to connect to other than "your car". As far as i know your car's bt protocols might be outdated and HTC left out some code for their BT drivers to work with older systems or if it is a genuine bug.
I appreciate your input, I thought you meant the cable was connected to your phone. It's wierd that I have a 2013 car and my EVO 4G LTE and an S4 both work but the new M8 doesn't.
I have no problem with streaming over BT to my car stereo or routing phone calls through it. I do have stuttering audio while streaming, however, which upsets me greatly.
I went back to the car and started messing around with settings and it now works. I had to disable and enable audio streaming. Audio is clean and crisp. Thanks for the feedback!

At times my audio will not come through. turning off BT in the car and turning it back on seems to allow the audio to work.....
I do however get the audio stuttering from time to time. Sounds like a CD skip almost. Yea I have been trying to figure out if there is a setting missing or something....most likely a bug though.....
Is the stuttering with all apps? I havent had much issue now but on my evolte i used ti get stutters whenever i transitioned towers or went screen off using gonemad and some flacs, poweramp seemed to be a bit better at it though.

Wow, not good. It's posts like these that help me to be more patient as I wait for my upgrade in July. Hopefully the little one like these are ironed out by that time.
I'm also getting random Bluetooth skips. Probably kernel related.

phone is not the issue here. Most smartphones have the capability to stream music over BT. The problem is usually when your car is setup to only handle calls over BT, nothing more. there's a workaround for this: You use Mono Bluetooth app in combination with your favorite music player app. It's not HD, but it works.

It seems my factory car stereo (which is only a year old) doesn't like the M8. I tried my 7 year old BT headphones and they streamed like champs. Stupid factory head units . I'm trying a couple of changes in audio_policy.conf to see if they make a difference. I don't think kernel is the issue here.

Does your radio have the ability to turn Bluetooth audio streaming on/off? That's what worked for me with my factory unit.

No.
Alright, fixed up my streaming issue. I'll explain later and post a fix. Busy right now.
So what I ended up doing was updating audio_policy.conf in /system/etc to allow lower bit rate audio over BT/A2DP. Currently the file only allows streaming at 48000, while some devices can only handle good ol' 44100. Adding in the additional value seems to have smoothed out my streaming for the most part.
I did notice some intermittent skipping when my device was in car mode and/or charging at first, but those issues seem to have sorted themselves out now. I would recommend deleting your device and re-pairing after making the change to ensure the connection is set properly.
I'll post up a flashable zip shortly to allow others to see if it helps/works for them.
EDIT: Zip attached. Sorry it took so long, Firefox was giving me problems.
@Captain_Throwback thanks bro, will give it a try. I've noticed it only to skip when using stock HTC media apps. Using Google Play music doesn't skip for me. May be a coincidence? Anyways, flashing your fix.
