Audio through bluetooth reset - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a blueant q2 headset. Every time I turn it on and connect I have to go into the Bluetooth settings and uncheck and re-check the settings for audio output through the headset. Is anyone else running into this or am I the only one? I use google listen and pandora as my audio sources.

I'm using the Q1 and I've had this happen a few times. Not sure what causes it....I've always chalked it up to the fact that I generally have two phones connected at the same time??

Bluetoothe stereo headsets not in media audio

i want to report an issue/bug that i've encountered yesterday when i purchased jabra bt620s bluetooth headset for listening music and making phone calls with my magic with ION rom.
when i connect the paired headset with the bluetooth enabled from before, the device only connects for a few seconds in MEDIA AUDIO mode, then remains only in phone audio mode, i have to disable and reenable the bluetooth on the magic to full connect the headset. annoying.
inf instead i enable the bluetooth on the device after that i've powered the headset on, the connection is full from the beginning....
result: i cannot let the bluetooth on in my magic.. because it's useless... i have to go then in preferences, wireless, bluetooth settings, ecc, ecc anyway =(
anyone with this problem?!?!
do you thik this is an ION ROM problem or bug?!?
try holding down the tap on the device in bt settings. then select to connect to media only. this works with my G1.

[Q] Disabling Bluetooth Media Audio?

Despite disabling the media audio output every time I connect my BT headset, it turns itself back on when the headset is reconnected. Is there a way to disable this permanently? I want to use the aux out on my stereo for music and the headset for phone, but don't want to keep disabling it every time I turn it on..
Frustrating...
Bump - anyone have any ideas?

There should be third party audio managers that let you pick which output is used for what, I can't think of any names but a little app store scraping should turn something up. That said, I'm sot sure if you can output music and stream a call simultaneously...

I just want it to retain the settings like it did in AOSP. When I set my BT headset to 'Phone Audio' and uncheck 'Media Audio', I want it to keep those settings the next time it connects.
Instead, it turns them both back on again. Which means turning my BT headset on while driving / listening to music results in the audio playing through the BT headset.

AOSP uses a third party audio manager, until it's available as a rom you'll have to find a different third party option. Almost any of them should save your settings...
Any ideas on the app? I've tried bluetooth auto connect as well as trying to set up Tasker profiles. No luck whatsoever.

Car stereo hijacks bluetooth media connection

I have a Pioneer car stereo with built in Parrot bluetooth and media connection. I had this issue with my previous phone so it must be either an Android issue or problem with my car stereo bluetooth. Every time I connect bluetooth to the car stereo the phone enables media connectivity and I have to manually go in and turn it off again. Sometimes I have to turn it on and off again as it says it's connected even though it isn't (tick box is ticked but if I untick it it connects and I have to untick it again and OK it to verify). Also if I disconnect it then cycle through the sources on the car stereo as soon as I get to bluetooth it enables it again.
I don't want it on because I want to hear media audio through the phone speakers and phone calls through the car stereo.
Android 4.1.2 at present.

I think the answer lies in the question here,, Parrot Bluetooth Media Connection.
The stereo isn't 'smart' enough to determine that what is connecting to it is a Phone/MP3 and as such you wont be able to split the audio to have the phone play music and the Stereo take calls, it'll end up being one over the other.
One way around this would be to test with a completely different Bluetooth Headset to see if this allows music to be played on the Device and Calls to come through on the Headset,, failing that its going to have to be a potential dev jobby to split how the device sends its audio and to what specific device,,, if that lies with HTC and Android/Us or Pioneer/Parrot themselves,, might be worth asking whats the official standpoint on this with the Manufacturer and see if they are getting this same issue from multiple folks

I have the same problem with my HTC One across four different ROMs, two GE and two Sense.
It's NOT an issue with my car stereo (uConnect system) as it works flawlessly on my Nexus 7 and VZW Galaxy Nexus. I prefer to have media (music, Ingress etc...) play over the phone. Only thing I want to play over the uConnect is the actual phone. No matter how many times I unselect media in the bluetooth settings it selects it again.
I see this is an old thread, anyone have any ideas?
Nope. It does not always do it though. I found that if I leave bluetooth on it seems to be OK just as long as I don't switch through from aux to radio to CD and back to USB again on the Pioneer. If I use the automatic bluetooth app to save battery it connects but then connects with the media option enabled. Bummer.

I've just installed Bluetooth Auto Connect have to go run some errands in a little while, I'll let you know if it helps out managing profiles or not.
If it works let me know what settings you used as I don't understand all the options lol.
bluetooth problem
Hi developers: Thanks Team Venom for a great ROM. I have only one problem. Rom 2.7 no problem with Bluetooth in the car. 3.1 Installation of clean and dirty disables bluetooth. Ten seconds connected and then disconnected. Again, connects and disconnects. So it all over again. It is in version 3.6 ... any change BT software? You can install the software separately BT? Or any other advice? Thank you very much
edit: I deleted the original settings in the car. Again the connection and still the same problem.

[Q] Bluetooth Car Audio Mute Feature Lost with 4.4

Before the KitKat update, Moto X would automatically mute whatever audio was playing through my car stereo (non-bluetooth audio, CD, radio, ipod, etc) when I interacted with it. This included texts via Moto Assist, Google Maps nav instructions, or even speech with touchless control. This was one of the main features I loved about this phone.
Now since the update, my phone doesn't mute my car audio any longer. I've tried unpairing and re-pairing the phone with no luck. The muting works fine when playing music from my phone through the bluetooth media option in my car. But it used to also work with other audio from non-bluetooth sources as well. The "Phone Audio" and "Media Audio" settings are checked in the bluetooth pairing on my phone, and the "mute audio" setting is checked for bluetooth on my car. I know that Google introduced some new Bluetooth functionality with 4.4, so not sure what settings might have been changed.
Anyone else have this issue, or know of a fix? For what it's worth, the car is a 2013 Volvo S60.
No one had this issue?

Use bluetooth audio while connected to AA

Hi, when I connect to AA it disabled my bluetooth audio so I cant play any audio books over it.
Is there any workaround for this?

In the Bluetooth Settings, go to the setting related to car blutooth, Enable Media Audio. you have to enable similar setting in car bluetooth Settings.

These settings are disabled when connected to AA. Even worth is that even phone audio doesnt work anymore.
Thats seems like an odd limitation.

I have been wanting to put my head through a window for this exact issue. I recently moved from an iPhone to a oneplus 6t and I am really starting to miss carplay. I have an AVIAN USA head unit in my BMW and I need to use Bluetooth so my audio and searing wheel controls work but every time I plug my phone in I lose audio. It seems like controls still work though as I can change songs but I get no audio. I've tried disabling audio routing over USB in dev settings and repairing my bt while android auto is running. I've also tested this with a note 9 and had the same issues. I have tried to put in a help ticket with google but not heard back.
