Is there any app or way to change ALL audio to go out the BT interface.?
Some of my apps speak while I am driving, and (not using a car dock) the audio comes out the speakers. I want to hear it in the Plantronics BT that is connected and works for cell calls.
Thanks
UPDATE: Found this that works: SuperMonoFroyo Free Trial. It worked.

Has anyone been able to configure their Jawbone (or other mono headset) to hear playback via A2DP or other means?
I've googled the entire interweb and cannot seem to get this to work.
The only option I have for the device in the bluetooth manager is "headset" the "set as stereo headset" is grayed out.
Thanks for any help!

The Jawbone doesn't support A2DP. There are programs that allow you to stream audio to it (See post above). However, they stream it at phone call quality, which means music sounds god awful. Plus, it eats the battery of the Jawbone (which thinks its it making a phone call).
If you actually want bearable audio, you want a real A2DP headset.
The Jabra BT8040 supports A2DP natively and is an excellent BT headset. I wish it had a standard power plug (fewer things to pack for business trips) but other than that, it rocks.
I also have a Jawbone and prefer the BT8040...the Jawbone has much outstanding noise cancellation but the BT8040 beats it in every other category IMHO.
Or use this small free utility to send all the Audio output to the blue tooth headset (even if it doesn't support A2DP).

Works flawlessly on my phone
if your bluetooth doesn't have a2dp and you want to force audio throught the regular bluetooth headset then look for the btaudio.cab
I find this to be the easier one to use. Run the can and there will be an icon under programs. Click it will force audio and click it again will undo. This is simple cause it doesnt hog system resources.
Any one here familiar with a "work-around" (such as posted above) for the android platform?
I own a nexus one and Jawbone prime - wish I could stream music/voip(!) over my jawbone (blue tooth ear piece)..
Thanks
Jawbone 2 - should have a2dp

I have a jawbone 2 which I love for the noise cancellation, but if I could get it to support A2DP the possibilities for voice control of my GS3 would be endless. I know this is an old thread, but it would be great if anyone has figured this out.
Please let me know if there has been a workaround.
Thanks

dears,
i have a new car with integrated audio car and bluetooth function. fortunatly the audio car only permit me to make phone calls but no possible to hear music from my diamond over bluetooth. Do you believe there is some way to hear music to stream over the hand free like if i am receiving a phone calls ?
best regards

It depends on the type of bluetooth profile that the car uses.
To use it for music, it would need to be A2DP.
With your bluetooth on, try going to the settings screen in touch flo and click Menu > Bluetooth Devices.
Click and hold on the device in the list that is your car. If you have the option to "Set as Wireless Stereo", the car has the A2DP profile. If not, you're SOL.

Hi All,
I got a bluetooth speaker today for phone calls. I got http://www.amazon.com/LG-HBM-800-Bl...arging/dp/B0024FA6QW/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top. One of the reviews says he can get the audio from the gps navigation on his phone to be played via the bluetooth speaker.
Is this possible on android? I have the speaker synced just fine for calls. Of course it would be very helpful if the GPS worked on these captivates! Hah!

BT devices support different profiles (functions) - some only work with phone functions, others support music and other audio functions. Car bluetooth usually supports both (handsfree profile, and A2DP - streaming audio). Your speaker probably only supports handsfree, so it won't play music or GPS.
Check the speaker specs for what BT profiles it supports.
Try this.

This headset does route navigation and other audio to the headset. It was going for $30 - $20MIR until the end of last month. See if it comes up again.

Thanks I learned something new today! I found "Supported Bluetooth profiles: Hands-Free Profile (HFP), Headset Profile (HSP)".
Bummer... Oh well, for $30 I cant complain
Im running precision 3.0 and I am able to hear my bluetooth calls via the headset but music only comes out the speaker of the phone. Anyone have any ideas? Cant workout and listen to music!!!

I'll take a stab at it. Bluetooth supports certain profiles. If you have a simple "Hands Free" headset, it may or may not produce music. I have Stereo BT headphones that function as a hands free headset (it also has a mic) as well as headphones for music. However I also have a low cost Motorola single ear loop and it only works for phone calls.
I think the type of headset you are looking for supports A2DP.
Or I might be completely wrong.

Oddly i rebooted twice and now it works.

Does anyone know of a reliable Bluetooth Audio App? i tried (what seems to be the only one on the market) Bluetooth Audio widget app and it does the trick... it transfers all the sound like music, gps directions and phone call to my jawbone. The application itself crashes all the time and the widget it self is non responsive sometimes and you have to remove it and add it again.
I'm not sure what you mean. I have a stereo bluetooth headset for running and such and all I do is enable bluetooth on my phone and turn on the headset (it was one I got on new egg by motorola and will take calls as well). Anyways it automatically transfers audio after that to the headset only. I assume this is the way out normally is for any headset.
