Hello
I recently bought the car dock for the Note. Bluetooth audio via ad2p work with my car stereo, but as soon as i put the phone in the dock, it doesn't. The audio defaults trough the line out of the dock witch i dont use. Anyone got a sulotion for this?
Reason you are unable to use is that the mobile gives more priority to the dock compared to your car stereo connection over BT (Physical connection over wireless connection, even your computer also does the same)
I would suggest you to plug a 3.5 mm audio cable form the dock to your car stereo so you still get what you want.
The reason i want to use BT audio is cause i can use the wheel to controll the phone. Can't do this trough line in/out.
You can simply change the automatic activation of voice command via Android settings / docking.

ive been wanting to stream music to my mates car sytereo when im in his car, but im not sure how its done with this phone can someone guide me
btw id prefer to use s2p as an interface as im sure its usable
I don't what s2p is but I stream to my stereo headset - no problem.
I can't imagine it being any different than setting up a headset. Put the car's bluetooth in setup mode and tell your phone to do a new bluetooth connection.
And if the car doesn't have built in BT, then you would need something like this>>>

There is a thread for this already:

I tried wired w/ the usb adapter before but I am using A2DP for wireless streaming. (Was using Sony DS-220 because it allows battery charging whle playing but recently change my head unit to JVC BT-1 with build in BT support)

So, I have a new Toyota Avalon with built-in bluetooth. Was wondering if anyone knew of hacks, tricks, tweaks - software or hardware - to permit a2dp to show up when connected through bluetooth. It says HANDSFREE but doesn't show WIRELESS STEREO on my ATT TILT (stock rom).
Anyway to do this?
Also, for anyone with a Toyota and bluetooth, is there any way to get Microsoft Voice Command activated from the steering wheel? On all my external car bluetooth speakers, hitting the call button activates Voice Command. Doesn't do it with the built-in Toyota system...unless I am overlooking something.
BUMP....
Is there someone on the forum with a Toyota and bluetooth?
I am bummed about this...the only way I can stream or play audio is use the AUX jack which is fine EXCEPT it means that the phone cannot be used via the built-in blue tooth...the other party can be heard by the car microphones don't pick up my voice (presumably because the AUX connector somehow hijacks it???!!)
Any help would be appreciated.

That's what would happen if the car's BT did not support A2DP. My guess would be that your car only supports handsfree.
I'm in the same boat. I have an '07 Sienna and I have been looking for a way to connect AD2P bluetooth. So far, I'm having no luck.
I've thought about mounting my i.tech clip inside the dash to the Aux input. That means I'd have to modify the i.tech to work when power is connected. I would also have figure out a way to use the Aux port directly (with another device) if I wish. It is always something...
The '09 Toyota's support the AD2P.
works for me
so, I am in a '10 toyota. When I get into the car, it will pair up as handsfree, but does not show AD2P initially. For me at least, if I go to the BT tab on the audio screen, and press and hold the play button, it will start playing from the last playlist I was using. The steering wheel seek up seek down work to skip forward and back.
The first time I needed to initiate some music playing on the phone, and then tell the car to connect bluetooth through the BT tab on the audio menu, I think it hides the AD2P unless the phone requests it, and treats it separately from the handsfree connection.
I wish you luck- for short trips, it is great to be able to just sit down in the car, and have the radio play my mp3s without having to muck with my phone or cables.
I have searched everywhere and can't seem to find a answer to this...
I use a phone cradle in the car, using my topaz as my music player, connecting my phone to my car stereo with a male-male 3.5mm audio jack.
I want to be able to steam music via bluetooth from any other compatible phone / device to my phone, meaning I don't have to trail cables everywhere when a passenger wants to play something.
I would have thought this to be a simple-ish thing to setup but cannot find any information on how to do it. Is it even possible, and where would I start if it is?
I also want to use my on-board mic when the headset is plugged so I can have call audio over car speakers, although iv been led to believe this isn't possible because of hardware reasons, can anybody clarify that?
Apologies if this is in the wrong forum, not really sure where it should have gone.
If I understand you correctly, you want to stream music TO your phone over BT from another device? Not possible.
For hearing call over speakers and using mic, you need to get the M-F w/built in mic.
I too don't think it will be possible to stream music from another device to your phone except if you transfer the entire music mp3 file via bluetooth to your device and then play it from there.
Regarding the possibility of using the device's microphone whilst using the car speakers for sound, again I'm afraid I don't think this is possible. I have a similar set-up to you in that my TD2 is connected to an FM transmitter which also charges my TD2 at the same time in a nice cradle. The TD2 thinks it is connected to a headset when cradled. The microphone is inactive in this state which is a shame as it would have made a good hands free system if it were to be active....

I use this set up as well. You just need the cable with the built in mic.
My RF Transmitter has a male plug, So I found the HTC cable that has the HTC USB to Female with built in mic. This is my basic set up.

That set up looks great Bruce, but I don't want to be fiddling about plugging in so many cables with so many wires visible. Brodit does something similar too, all in a cradle with an extended wire so you would be able to hide all the cables....
Hoping for some help/tips/ideas.
My car radio has a USB port that has an "aux" mode that is supposed to let me stream audio to it. I do not have a car dock.
My question is: how can I get my Cappy to stream audio, including call audio, via USB? I'm running an ICS ROM (Doc's Master ICS V5).
Any help/tips will be appreciated.
you have a couple different options here, to use the usb you will have to select media when you plug it in on your phone. For straight music playing just use a dual 3.5mm cord(same at both ends) and use the headphone jack and aux on the car deck. As for calling and such the only way to do that is if you have a bluetooth enabled stereo.
When I was in a car like that I streamed my music through USB I just connected the USB and put my cappy in USB mode and the car automatically went to reading the music files on my phone. I was running ICS too.

Hi,
Trying to connect my Dell Streak 7 to my car stereo. However, it seems that it pairs - doesn't connect - and don't think it is connecting for audio - just calls. How can I be sure (Lexus SC430 2005).
If I cannot connect via native bluetooth to play audio from the Streak, how can I do this?
Thanks.

Does it not connect even after you pair if you click on it? Mine usually connects the first time after a boot, but doesn't automatically reconnect after the stereo has turned off and back on. Also at times it won't reconnect at all and the only solution is a reboot. Overall I'm not impressed with the bluetooth drivers on this thing (in honeycomb at least, haven't tried froyo or ics).
Unfortunately, the only other option is to use a 3.5mm adapter to your car stereo. If you do that, I'd suggest you use a ground loop isolator to eliminate feedback/humming (assuming it's power is plugged into the car cigarette lighter).
