Hi
I have been trying to pair my N1 to my nissan altima 2008 bose bluetooth system but it wouldn't pair. I tried countless number Of times but it won't work.
Does anyone else have this problem?
I think I read in the Google Nexus One forum that there are issues with Nissan/Infiniti cars and the bluetooth of the Nexus one.
hmmm... I have got mine paired with Chinese all in one DVD/SATNAV/DTV unit... it works very well.. It even automatically switches on the unit when It detects a bluetooth signals from my paired Nexus One....
Well, Im guessing its something to do with compatibility with the Nissan Bose Unit. Because I also had a difficulty pairing my Previous G1, But ONLY after updating to Donut 1.6. It eventually connected but after many many tries.
I have beeen doing some googling about this and it seems that many users are having problems pairing with different cars with 1.6 and above.

Well the other option you have is to change your car... and get a car which is compatible with Nexus One...
see here: http://code.google.com/p/android/is...ct&colspec=ID Type Status Owner Summary Stars
this issue is known to carry through android 2.0 and 2.1.
I have the 2010 Mazda 3 sport with the Bose package and it pairs fine.

Yeah, I have the 2010 Mazda 3i touring and no problems either.
ID have a kenwood deck in my mazda and all works good. is there some kind of factory reset switch on your stereo, that's what I have to do t get new phones working on mine.
I have a Parrot Mki9100 and I have some problems...when I am on the car my Nexus One connect itslef with the Parrot, but it disconnect and try to reconnect many times. At the end it stops trying...
So every time I have to go to Settings->BT->Long press on Parrot device and click connect. After that it works...very annoing...
Hm... I have an '08 Infiniti G37 with the Bose system and it pairs and works just as well as it did with my G1. I would have assumed that Nissan is using the same or a similar unit for the audio system for most of their cars.
Mazda 6 gt-m 2009 here, BT carkit has no probs with the N1
Tried to pair it with the parrot in my gf's car, but same probs as described by other users. Seems it's the Parrot; my iphone had issues with it as well.
Ah well, i'd rather drive my car then hers, so good excuse to use mine
I dont get how they end up making things worse by upgrading rather than making things better !!! I mean according to : http://code.google.com/p/android/is...ct&colspec=ID Type Status Owner Summary Stars
This problem has been known since 1.6 and I can defenitly confirm that since It took me forever to pair my G1 previously. But with my N1 , it just never pairs, so they even made it worse. Such an important option, you would think Google would have fixed it in 2.0 but to drag it to 2.1. This is just messed up.
That is very frustrating.
@OP, someone mentioned changing your car to accommodate your nexus one, that sounds like a great idea, but if you can't get it to work you can always go with a bluetooth add on option.
At Volkswagen there were some phones that were not connecting with the manufacturer add on and customers were pissed because they paid over $400 for the option. Another thing just as bad is purchasing the unit and not being able to use the bluetooth steering wheel controls because of compatibility issues.
My conclusion is that there are too many products out there and sometimes they are just not compatible with each other. In this case it sucks that it was your car...or should I say your phone?
Well, the Nexus connects fine to my VW premium bluetooth (from 2005) but the cars system can not access the phonebook.
Not even the sim contacts which the HTC Hero could do.....
Google support suggested importing the sim contacts into the Nexus.
I wonder if they read the mails before they answer....
I've always found OEM bluetooth to be pretty uncompatible, and yet to see an update for one.
I've got a kenwood unit, which works with my steering controls, connects handsfree and audio when I turn on my ignition, and it syncs the phone book fine, showing the callers name when the phone rings. (it cost £80....) and I updated it (it's a parrot bluetooth unit in there) from my laptop via bletooth.
The N1 works best of all the phones I've had (6 htc's in 3 years) with it.
I never had an issue with my old g1...until I flashed a 2.0 ROM. Everything pairs fine, music player worked, stereo would switch over, but no sound came from speakers on phone calls. Now my nexus is the same way. I've asked Cyanogen if he would be kind enought to look into it and hopefully he will.
My N1 (locked bootloader, not rooted) routes the audio just fine, did it work before you cyanogened it?
ck3100
Wel I tried to connect my N1 to the parrot ck3100. it will see it fine, but the moment I try to link it it says paring failed. Anybody had any better luck with the ck3100 and N1?

I've got a 2010 Mazda 3 sport - it pairs/plays fine etc with my Nexus, but the person on the other end of the line always complains that I sound *really* quiet. I never had that problem with my G1. Do you get any complaints?
Hey guys,
I've got a Kenwood KDC-BT945U car stereo and I'm curious what other people's experiences are using the bluetooth for music. For all of you using a bluetooth receiver in the car, when you play music, does the deck display the Song/Artist/Album/etc.? Mine plays fine. I can pause/play, skip forward/back, etc. The only problem is when it comes to actually displaying the information on the car stereo.
Any similar experiences?
Ps. Besides this problem, the deck is a great complement to the phone. If I can get this problem solved, I can stop using the USB altogether.
I was going to post a similar thread about my issues with the KDC-BT945U. Thanks for staring it. Are you running a custom ROM?
Music for me shows no tag info. My main issue is that foryo is a nightmare when it comes to this deck. Both the deck and the nexus has major pairing issues using froyo. I have not tried 2.1 stock or Cyan's 5.0.7, I assume they work fine. I am no expert, but I think it's the new Radio in froyo causing the problem.
Surprisingly, Paul's desire ROM and this deck work very well for me.
Checking the website, there is a Bluetooth compatibility section. They do not list the nexus. I'm hoping for a firmware update for the deck.
I do have a 30gb iPod in the glove box hooked up via the rear USB and it does display track info on the deck.
Yeah. In my infinite wisdom, I bought a ZuneHD rather than an iPod touch. . . The only Kenwood stereo I could find that was compatible with the Zune was like twice the price. Not exactly doable when I'm 28 days away from being a daddy. lol That said, I'm just using a jump drive for the USB. That's been working flawlessly, tags included. If I can figure out how to get the phone to transmit tag info, then I can drop the need to carry an mp3 player (or have a jump drive hooked up) altogether. I love listening to music from the phone while using the navigation, for the sheer fact that it cuts the music off to make announcements. . .just need to get it working right.
Edit. Btw, I an running eViL's latest FroYo. Noir Tri.

Can you tell me what firmware your deck is running? Mines 3.11
Also can you tell me what Radio you are running? Mines 32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.12_7
Thank you

Same as you. Latest FroYo radio and 3.11 on the deck. Have since wiped and flashed Evil's latest Noir IV (FRF83 based) and still the same results. I have a 16 gig jump drive in there, so I have plenty of music. . . it just kind of sucks for the navigation piece. Phone calls are fine, because they'll interrupt any of the inputs. . . nav doesn't have that luxury. :-\
Thank you for the reply,
I have switch over to Kang-o-rama 0.9 Final (Froyo FRF83). My BT registering is a bit better, but nothing like Paul's R22 desire ROM was. With Paul's ROM, I was able to just keep my phone in my pocket at all times and when I started my car, as long as BT was turned on, my phone and deck synced every time. Now i'm lucky if it syncs at all. I have to constantly re-pair with the phone, and even that is very flaky.
Also, During audio, only 'BT audio' is displayed, no tags.

Did the desire rom display tag info? I have to repair all the time too. . .might be worth switching just for that.

Unfortunately, the desire ROM does not display tag info.
Unfortunately I'm pretty sure that sending the tag info for songs over Bluetooth isn't currently possible. It's a limitation in Bluetooth though, not your head unit.
I have a stock Nexus One and a Kenwood KDC-X994 and after trying unsuccessfully to figure out how to get my song info to show on the head unit I contacted Kenwood about it. They informed me it wasn't currently possible to do this via Bluetooth and that it was Bluetooth that had the limitation, not my head unit.
On a side note, ever since upgrading to Froyo (stock) my phone will only stream music via BT to my head unit with the stock music app, and this is very aggravating. Seems to be an issue with Froyo from seeing other user posts about this topic. I sincerely hope Google fixes this ASAP!

not true, my blackberry storm 2 sends all the song info to my kenwood kdc-bt945u. so the problem is in the phone software not the hu or bluetooth
where are we at on this? im curious as i should have an eris by friday and want to know how compatible it will be with my head unit
Huh. Interesting. I guess Kenwood was wrong, then.

kenwood kind of pisses me off, i dealt with them a lot after i purchased the hd radio unit for the 945u. i was trying to find out why you cannot access the equalizer or any audio settings in hd radio mode (extremely annoying) he said you just cant. i wanted a more detailed explaination and he just made some bs up to get me off the phone. but yeah, just so you guys know, if you get the hd radio for you head unit you wont be able to adjust the terb/bass or anything on the hd radio src. all you get it the direct signal.
but does anyone know if this song info problem has been fixed? in an update or anything?
I can't connect my HD7 with my hands free system in my BMW. It just won't connect. Anyone could make it work?
Mine won't work in my ford sync system, ironically made by Microsoft as well. Lol
Worked on mine and in the MINI...
Go into the settings on the car, click pair new device, it will ask you to search for the car, search on the phone, and pair them.
Once they are paired it takes a while but your contacts and text messages will be on the car.

Thats useless information unless your Toyota has BMW iDrive System.
Mine has successfuly paired with the 7er iDrive System. The only thing you have to know is the bluetooth code of your car. You have to set the car to the pairing mode and on the phone set up the search for the bluetooth devices. You should see the bluetooth headset device named as the last 7 digits of your VIN CODE e.g. mine is: DS79xxx. Then click on the phone on this device and enter the bluetooth code of the car (its somewhere in the manual) and thats it. It takes some time, till the contacts are synchronized with the car and it depends on how many contacs you have in your phone. I have almost 1000 contacts, so it takes couple of minutes.
I tried couple times. I put the i-drive system in pairing mode and I can find the headset in the phone, but when I tap in the headset the connection fails.
Will be pairing my 3 series today and report back.

Ironically it was more helpful than your post
I appreciate all the posts about your bluetooth experiences. I had no problem pairing my HD7 to my Plantronic Discovery 925. The problem is with the BMW system. It worked fine with my previous phones (TP, TP2, HD2, HD2 Android). I'm glad to know that it is working on other BMW, Mini & Toyota (I also own a Toyota, but it doesn't have bluetooth). It means that it will work for me too, I'm just need to keep trying, and I'll do so after work tonight.
It also works fine in my w204 Class, w212 Eclass and 3rd Gen Prius.
Also works with Parrot Bluetooth and BMW non idrive Bluetooth in E92 3er.
You dont state what model of BMW or version of iDrive you have which may help?
As for you Homer.web posting similar info about your 7er would be more use than the unhelpful comments that you have come up with so far. Grow up.

It's a 2006 M5. I don't know the iDrive version.
I was able to successfully pair my HD7. I tried first thing after starting the car (I don't know if that made the difference), but it finally worked.
Thank you everyone.

I dont think, that it make sence if somebody asks particular question, answer something totaly different. How would you like the answer from the BMW service if you call them, that you have e.g. problem with CD player in your BMW car and they would reply: We tried it on Mercedes Benz car and it works OK.
So: if the topic is so specific, its good habit to answer specific post to that topic.
If you have an urge to tell the world, that you successfuly paired your phone with the bluetooth headset, start the new general topic called "Pairing HD7 with headset/car/..."
I paired mine easily the first time. Working perfectly.
2008 328ci
I have an older car (2004 BMW 330ci) with built-in factory bluetooth. All of my previous smartphones would connect to it with varying degrees of success. Because of this variation, I believe the car's bluetooth system to be "less than universal" as far as compatibility is concerned. The problem is, my new HTC One is all but useless with it! The volume during calls is barely above a whisper, and callers report that they can barely hear me. Also, while it hasn't disconnected any calls, outside of a call the phone alternatively displays " bluetooth connected" and " bluetooth disconnected", cycling about every 10 seconds.
From previous experience, I know there's a significant software component to compatibility with this system. For example my stock Nexus S 4G would connect and work well but would occasionally drop the connection. But then the paranoid android rom on the same phone would not only never drop a connection, it would transmit sms text messages and my contacts directory to the car as well. No other phone or rom has done that.
So.. some questions...
1.) Anyone else having this problem? If so, what kind of vehicle?
2.) Any other BMW drivers not having this problem with the HTC One? If so, year and model?
3.) This is probably an ignorant "noobish" one, but... is it possible to extract the bluetooth software from the nexus paranoid android rom and bring it over to the HTC One?
4.) Know of any HTC One roms that make changes to the bluetooth software?
5.) Any other advice you can give that may help?
I've tried Volume+ to no avail. Version 1.9 states it isn't fully compatible with the One's android version, and version 2.0 alpha doesn't yet have bluetooth functionality.
Thanks for your help! If I discover a solution, I'll post an update.

Hi,
I have a 2006 bmw z4 (e85) and I'm having exactly the same problem with sound level via bluetooth.
My previous phones (htc sensation xe and htc touch pro 2) worked flawlessly with the car
I would also love to find a solution to it, because there's no bluetooth firmware upgrade available at BMW's..
Same issue, but it only arose with the 4.3 update. Before that Bluetooth had other issues even recognizing my stereo, now it connects flawlessly but cycles the "Connected" and "Disconnected" message every couple seconds. 2006 avalon, but with custom stereo and system.
I think that one's bluetooth stack uses some different compression method than sensation. I dont know whether its some kind of codec or encryption method, because system sounds are loud and clear and a person's voice is quiet and with some interference.
Hope that someone will find a solution to this problem - probably downgrading bluetooth stack would solve the problem

I have a similar problem with my Acer Liquid E2 duo phone connecting to Dension 500S BT kit installed in my Audi. It works all fine when I place a call from the phone. But if I dial from my media interface, i get a very low call volume and adjustment using the car volume control doesn't work any more.
A little thread revival
After upgraiding my htc one to android 4.4 kitkat the problem is partially solved, meaning the bluetooth volume is slightly higher, but only slightly - still cannot get a clear loud sound I used to have while using htc sensation with stock ICS.
Any luck with you, guys?

Try Viper4Android, you must be rooted tho.

any fixes to this problem yet ??
Try using "HTC car" app
I had the same problem for six months and just found a solution that works for me.
I just found out that the HTC One Bluetooth audio connection (A2DP) plays with a very different volume depending on whether the "HTC car" app is active or not.
For six months I have been playing music daily in my car using HTC One (media app: Qobuz) as source and Bluetooth as connection. The source volume was very low, so that I had to keep the audio car audio system near maximum level. Eventually, this abnormal use of my car audio system destroyed it: I had to replace the receiver, and may have to replace the speakers too.
Only this morning, after six months, I found out that when launching the media app from within the "HTC car" app, the output volume is much louder, and I can set the receiver's volume at a normal level.
I guess HTC does this to prevent ear damage when the One is connected to a Bluetooth headset. Great, but they should mention it in the HTC One user instructions, or at least on their website! It destroyed my car audio system!!
HTC One (M7)
Android 4.4.2
HTC Sense 6.0
Stock ROM

In my case car mode doesnt solve the problem - its a bluetooth compatibility issue I suppose

Hello Everyone I am here to find some answers (hopefully)...
So I got the HTC One Coming from the Iphone 5. I've had numerous Android devices before, and apple products. I just recently also purchased a subaru wrx, it has bluetooth radio. When I had my iphone 5, i synced perfectly with the radio, hands free worked Awesome. When i got into the car my spotify or pandora would immediately start playing..
Now i get my htc one, and i pair my phone with the car, but my hands free audio sounds terrible, i can barely understand what the other person is saying. On top of that i have to manually connect the phone to bluetooth everytime i turn on my car, its very annoying. I have tried many different roms, and kernels, and i even went back to stock but i can't seem what the problem is. I am about to change the radio in the car thinking its not very user friendly with android devices.
If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be awesome. I am pulling my hairs, i love the htc one, but i miss my handsfree bluetooth functionality. I have tried searching the forums, but i haven't found any answers that worked.
I am having the same issue with having to manually confirm the Bluetooth connection in my car. Mines on a Toyota 86 with the GPS in dash, I believe it's made by eclipse who supply Subaru?

I have to manually connect each time to my bluetooth nakamichi speaker.
I too am having same issues. I also have a 2011 WRX with original radio. With my prior phone (GS2) I connected without problem and automatically every time I started the car. I have to manually connect the HTC one every time. Many others seem to not have this problem with other vehicles, so I'm starting to think it's the Subaru radio not playing nice with the phone. Please post if you find a solution.

I had similar problems in my car with an alpine radio, but with my galaxy s3.
In fact the thing is that when you register a phone on your radio (in my case) the radio just looks for the first one defined and registered to autoconnect.
Now, if in your radio you clear registered devices list, and try to register your htc, i am pretty convinced that it will autoconnect all the time.
Hope it helps,

Nicolas.
My HTCone synched immediately with the OEM bluetooth in my 2011 Kia Forte. No problema, in fact, it is a much better connection (clarity) than with the old EVO 4g, which initially required a bit of fiddling to make work. Hands free phone call system on the KIA works very well too. FWIW.

Thanks for that. I sorted out how to BTconnect my HTCone<--> Macbook, but could only do so, one file at a time. The app you mentioned works great (!) and allows me to push multiple files at ne time. Reviews say it is also a great file manager, that I have yet to determine but if so, an added bonus.
I am also having a problem with the HTC One bluetooth in my car. The phone connects to the car’s bluetooth system, pairs properly, although very slow, it uploads the phone book and call history. The problem is the call quality. The people I am calling complain about the sound, they feel the volume is too high and this distorts the sound, as well as there is too much noise added to the voice, or something like that. As soon as I switch to the phone speaker the sound that they hear gets better. This makes me think the bluetooth on this phone sucks. One person suggested the interaction between the noise canceling and main microphone is mixed up, but if I am using my car's sound system it should not use the phone's microphones anyway, or maybe it does? I guess what I am trying to say is that when I am using the car's stereo it should use only the car's microphones and speakers , but sound like the phone noise canceling microphone is still active.
If anybody has ideas for fixes, or suggestion for further tests, I will do it.
P.S. I didn't have any problems with my car's bluetooth with my iPhone 4 or Nexus 4.
Same for me. Sometimes the problem disappears. I assume the problem comes from the BTstack. In fact, the one is the only Android phone I know that use a different BT stack than blueZ. This stack is HTC one. It allows us having avrcp 1.3 (The name of the song displayed on our car audio). I hope the HTC one Google edition use blueZ stack. I will try a Rom based ion that. If the problem disappears, it will confirm the problem come from HTC stack.

BT problem
Hi,
I'm also having a problem with my BT while paired to the BT in my awesome Volkswagen sirocco.
I don't see any contact or missed calls or recent calls. The log is empty.
Any help will be much appreciated.

When I had my iphone 5, i synced perfectly with the radio, hands free worked Awesome. When i got into the car my spotify or pandora would immediately start playing..
Now i get my htc one, and i pair my phone with the car, but my hands free audio sounds terrible, i can barely understand what the other person is saying. On top of that i have to manually connect the phone to bluetooth everytime i turn on my car, its very annoying. I have tried many different roms, and kernels, and i even went back to stock but i can't seem what the problem is. I am about to change the radio in the car thinking its not very user friendly with android devices.
If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be awesome. I am pulling my hairs, i love the htc one, but i miss my handsfree bluetooth functionality. I have tried searching the forums, but i haven't found any answers that worked.

I am having the same issue...I had the Motorola Atrix 4g and it paired immediately with my Pioneer deck. That phone always reconnected and like you mentioned, pulled up Pandora etc. Now I have the HTC One, and it paired and connected but it refuses to play audio. Handsfree works (kinda sloppily, also like you mentioned), but the Media Audio portion doesn't work even though the phone reports that it is connected. My stereo says no device detected when I switch to BT Audio. I hope you find a resolution to this issue, I have searched everywhere and of course I saved the best for last and decided to finally check here @ XDA.
I posted earlier in the thread that I was having difficulties pairing my One with my Subaru WRX factory radio. I could not get it to automatically connect with the phone each time I started the car. I could manually get it to connect but that was a pain every time I got in the car. I was able to solve my issue by deleting every other pairing the radio had with other prior phones. I deleted any pairing my One had previously and then paired it with the car radio before any other device. It now connects regularly every time I start the car, and both audio and phone functions work perfectly. I would recommend anyone having blue-tooth issues to try the same. The Subaru radio also had a weird menu system that was different whether I was pairing the phone by using voice commands or trying to do it with physical buttons on the radio. Very confusing but going through the hands free voice command menu seemed to pair both audio and phone functions, where I could only pair audio functions when using the physical buttons on the radio. Seemed like two different systems.
Been having crappy noise issues with my 09 Acura TSX. I emailed HTC regarding this problem but, of course, their response was to 'check with the car manufacturer'. Will try that method and see how it goes.
My problem is a bit different. My htc One connects flawlessly with my JVC unit that too automatically. But it keeps disconnecting and reconnecting. And that is a major issue. The phone also gets insanely hot in this process and today the OS crashed two times and i had to do a Hard Reset.
I am coming from an iPhone 5 on which bluetooth streaming was flawless.
Anyway to stop the auto-disconnect and re-connect going on.
My Bluetooth is mess up.
It can pair up, but the Address Book is not showing up on the car screen menu now. I don't know what happened. When I play music on my phone to the Bluetooth in the car, it is silence.
Does anyone know what is going on?
HTC One Bluetooth Problem in BMW
I am having the same problem.
My HTC One connects, I can make calls from the phone and the calls are clear, but I cannot see my contacts.
I have emailed HTC and they say it is the car (BMW 5 series). I have checked with BMW and there isn't an update for my car available. I am therefore, using the latest software. I previously used the HTC sensation which worked fine in the same car.
I am wondering if one could install an older version of the Bluetooth and A2DP software as the those on the HTC One do not work in my car and I cannot see BMW developing any updates and if they did, the cost could be as much as the phone.
Would appreciate any help

I can now see my contacts after more than a month!
I did many things, some of which I do not believe had anything to do with the process required.So I will stick with the main points and if this does not work I will include all that I can remember.
I unpaired all phones in the car (including the HTC One)
Pair the HTC One
Look out for the message BMW wants......................... contacts
Select yes
Wait for the contacts to load, this took a couple of minutes at least.

Been trying to find out for the longest time the definite set of codecs that the One supports over bluetooth. Besides SBC and AptX, does it also support MP3 and AAC??
The reason I'm asking is that I'm coming from a (company supplied) iphone and have been generally very happy with the bluetooth audio quality to my car's audio system (Audi) and Bose Soundlink Mini speaker. I know for sure the iphone supports AAC and due to the quality suspect it is used in both cases.
The Bose at least does *not* support AptX, however getting a definite codec list for the Bose is also impossible. I only managed to find buried in the offfical bluetooth certification pages that it is a BT2.1 device.
Why do all these manufacturer's hide this documentation?
Very disappointed to find out that the Bose Soundlink Mini negotiates a link with the HTC One using SBC...
These are both premium devices for which top dollars are paid, and they still shovel this **** on me.
I'm not sure on where to place the blame here, HTC for only(???) supporting AptX next to SBC, or Bose for only supporting SBC(???)
As mentioned, both are not transparent in their devices capabilities - isn't there an app to find out these things?
Beats is at least more clear: "Bluetooth 2.1 audio and supports SBC, aptX, AAC Codecs for high quality streaming"
