Hello,
I'm totally new in this area (android). I have a Galaxy s for a week now, and I am generally very impressed by the phone. There are two strange (or even stupid?) things about the phone:
1. I used to have a Nokia 6500 (it is not even symbian 60, it's 40). There is a menu called "enhacement" where you can adjust what calling profile will be activated when a headset, handsfree etc is connected. For example, when I connected the (nokia) phone to the bluetooth car handsfree the phone would recognize that a activate the "car" profile which I had created. The car profile in my case had a specific (quiet) ringtone (that was transmitted to the car's speaker) and had the phone vibration disabled.
Questions: Is there a way to create calling profiles AND that the phone activates a specific profile when connected to the car's bluetooth handsfree?
Is there a way to transmit the phone's ringtone to the car's speakers??
2. The second strange issue is that if I set an alarm and switch the phone off, the alarm will not be activated at alll!! The alarm only works as long as the phone is activated!!!
Thanx in advance

Hello
I am a beginner both with the Kaiser and the A2DP . I have paired my Jabra 8010 BT correct and when I push the menu button I get the voice speed dial page with " no tag selected " so I assume my connection to the Kaiser is okay.
But when I want to use the stereo function for HTC Player or Windows mediaplayer the sound is not switching from the speaker to the headset .
Any idea what settings or steps I need to do to get the sound to the BT headset ?
There is as well no little Headset icon in the tool bar as set in page 176 of the manul .. (see I am reading first !)
Thanks for any help .

Did you pair the Jabra for A2DP? In the Kaiser's BT settings for the device, you should see two services, Hands Free & Wireless Stereo, and both boxes should be checked. If you see only one service, you'll have to re-pair the Jabra; if you see both, but Wireless Stereo isn't checked, check it.
hmm it looks more like a bug or a intended function.
I have both hands free and stereo profile.
When I delete the bluetooth pairing and re-pair it works like it should:
- Headset icon in menu bar
- when media player start the sound is automatic transfered to head set
but now ... when I switch out BT in the coms manager and switch it on again:
- no headset icon appears at all
- no transfer of sound from media player to head set
even the handbook says (page 176) run steps 1-3 of the paring again.
Does this means I need to re-pair mu stereo headset each time I want to have music transfered to the Heatset after switching off BT on the phone ???
That can not be true or ?

confirmed ... looks like before any usage of wireless stereo (after switch off/on BT) I need to go each time into the connection manager, bluetooth settings, left tab on Jabra, select set as stereo ... if this is done the headset Icon appears again in the menu.
I am the only one to whom this looks very complicated to just listen to your podcast ... ?
Why cant the BT profile hold the information that my headset is BT stereo ???

I seem to be having the same problem. Every time I turn on my Bluetooth, and every time I make a phone call, I have to un-check wireless stereo, save, then re-check it in order to listen to music via my Jabra BT8010.
I wish there was a fix for this.
Use A2DP toggle to re-connect from the today screen.
I have a Tilt and the 510 Voyager headset. I'm wondering if there's a way to do the following two things:
1. When the headset is turned on and connected to the phone is there a way that I can make it so that I can still talk on the phone? It seems like when the headset is turned on that the microphone and sound is muted on the phone, so you have to use the headset.
I want to be able to use either the phone or the headset at the same time.
2. If I walk out of range of the headset while it is turned on, then walk back in range, can I set it so that the headset will automatically reconnect?
1. You can switch from the headset to the phone during a call. It is one of the options on the "call screen". I don't believe you can set it to default, but you can just turn off bluetooth if you want the default headset to be the phone.
2. The headset should automatically reconnect when brought back in range. Try pushing the "pick up" button on the headset. It should automatically re-pair in a second or two.
Ok...wondering if you guys can help...
Phone: XDA Ignito
Car stereo: Sony MEX-BT4700U
(http://www.sony.co.uk/product/ica-bluetooth-car-stereo/mex-bt4700u)
The first time I first linked the two, both the phone and stereo automatically recognised that they could both use 'Handsfree' and 'A2DP' profiles, signified by two sperate symbols on stereo, and the two different BT profile symbols on the Ignito. Both worked perfectly, music streaming and handsfree.
However, the next time I returned to the car...only the 'Handsfree' profile connected automatically.
In the bluetooth settings on the Ignito it knows it can connect both ways, if I uncheck handsfree profile, and leave A2DP checked, it connected prefectly fine by A2DP. (and vice versa).
So my question is...why the hell won't it connect using BOTH profiles automatically, like it did at first connection? Am I going to have to mess around in the bluetooth profile settings every time I want to switch from handsfree to A2DP?!?!?
Thanks guys,
Dave
Noone?
Now it seems to only connect via 'handfree' profile, even when i've unchecked handsfree profile in the bluetooth device settings and ticked the 'stereo' profile.
I find the following app very good to quickly connect to multiple headsets/speakers
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sflab.bluetooth
ie. @ home i have a D200 creative speaker
instead of going into bluetooth settings.. just click the widget and its connected!
Cons: sometimes the widget does not respond.. but give it some time.
Updated Version of above:
One click - Connect 2 Specific Bluetooth device for A2DP and Phone app:
Bluetooth Pair
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gnssoftworks.bluetoothpair
found it very useful for swapping bluetooth headphones between devices WITHOUT turning off Bluetooth entirely or going into the settings menu.
Example Use Case:
I have one Stereo Bluetooth headset with mic (two profiles - phone and A2DP audio)
I have one Android Phone and one Android Tablet.
Phone Profile is always connected to the Android Phone, but the A2DP audio changes depending on which device you want to listen to music from.
Normally, if you want to listen to audio from the Tablet when your headset's A2DP profile is connected to the phone, you'd have to first go to the settings menu of the phone, and disconnect the A2DP, leaving Phone Profile connected. Then go to the settings menu on your tablet and connect the A2DP only.
Then you'd have to do the opposite if you want to listen to audio from the Phone again.
Takes a long time.
With Bluetooth Pair, you can specifically connect or disconnect to a specific device and specific profile (phone / a2dp) by widgets.
So you won't have to turn off the bluetooth completely on one device just to allow your headset to connect another device. Nor do you need to go into settings anymore.
1.) Just tap on the A2DP device specific widget on the phone to disconnect, the A2DP Profile from the phone
2.) go to the Tablet, and tap on the A2DP device specific widget to connect the A2DP profile of the headset to the Tablet
Two taps!
I have two issues what I don't know exactly how to resolve:
1) When I plug in the headset the volume is automatically decreased. But I want to have it set prior to the auto-volume decrease. How to achieve it?
2) When I have my headsets plugged in I want to hear the incoming calls and notifications from the speaker.
a) I figured out that I can set a profile with 'incoming call' and 'Headset connected'. This profile I need to create as well for notifications from Whatsapp and SMS additionally -right? So I have at least 3 diff profiles?
b) I can enable the speaker - fine. But when I pick up the call I wanna have them automatically on the headset - if connected. Do I need to add a new task when establishing connection?
c) more or less the question: do I need to split it up into several tasks and profiles or is it better to have them all glued together in one big
