I know porting ICS and JB on I9000 was difficult, but since it got ported and I switched to ICS/JB (currently running Slim Bean 2.6), I tried installing different roms on my phone and I stumbled on the same problem. I'm using a pair of bluetooth headphones (DELL BH200). On 2.3.7 (darky 9.5 if I recall correctly) they were running perfectly fine, and the call function had no issues. Since the update to JB/ICS, bluetooth connects correctly, the multimedia buttons work, but when I'm recieving a bluetooth call, I can hear the tone in the headphones, I can answer the call, but both the microphone and sound in headphones don't work (bluetooth selected in call app). Sometimes (depends on the rom), if I try to switch to speaker or phone headphone the call just crashes or the switch doesn't happen at all. So, what I am asking is: is this a common problem ? Is there a fix ? Would a clean install help ? Or should I revert to 2.3.7 (I'd rather stick to JB or ICS for the small drawback of not being able to use my headphones as a handsfree device)

A factory reset on the Bluetooth device could be the answer

give this a try.
I did. Still not working. Maybe I should explain the problem again: the headphones work at recieving audio while using the phone as media player, and I can hear the system sounds until I try to call someone or someone tries to call me. At that moment they stop working all together until I reconnect them. It's almost like the system can't switch from phone headphones to bluetooth and it would't use any of them until I disconnect the headphones. Similar to a windows sound driver crash that needs restarting. Maybe it's just the dialer/phone app or the modem. Can I flash a GB modem while using a JB rom ? Or are there any bluetooth drivers that can be replaced with older ones ? I'm not sure it's a driver problem. I'll try calling over skype.
Skype call over bluetooth doesn't work either.

you can get ICS , JB modem here My Android Collections look at the developer thread of the ROM you are currently using about any known problems or fixes available

I would try to install a GB modem onto my phone, but, will it influence in any way the bluetooth interface ? Also, can I safely flash a 2.3.6 modem onto a JB rom ?

Yes, it's enough to copy brf6350.bin from that thread to /etc/firmware/ to fix headset audio call problem.

This fix is valid for every custom rom not based on the official ROM (AOSP, Cyanogen...), the official rom is OK

You should recompile with latest source from CM
I've compiled myself with a slightly modified version of your vendor and it's fair bit less buggy now

This is a well know issue with any ROM running an I9000 kernel. If you need the wired headset functionality and quality Bluetooth then you must use a ROM with a kernel made for the Captivate...Try the COG versions, they are by far the best out there....
This is why I'm always confused when someone says i9000 roms don't have isssues... then you have someone that's new to the scene not realize they just gave up their earbug microphone lol

ok so apparently for me even the htc headset that came with my phone doesnt seem to want to work :S...
is this true for everyone or is my htc IS just messed up?
I used it in miui, arhd and virtuous.... is it possible that there is a hardware issue in the phone :S? any way to check?.... the mic symbol does show up on the phone though just no voice goes through?
this is a bell/virgin IS with S-off, and eng boot...
any reply back will be really helpful cuz im about to chuck my phone against the wall
... the handsfree build.prop change (from development section) works somewhat that i can hear myself talking on mic.... but no voice is going through to the other end :S....

You are not alone - have same problem and have tried multiple rom images.
thats sad.... kills the device for me nicely that a simple thing like that has a bug
Handsfree was working well with htc stock rom. It wont work on cyanogen and miui roms.
doesnt seem to want to work for me with any custom rom :S... oh well
I too have the same problem. It's a bit disappointing but overall phone is great with custom roms.
mmmm do u people (whomever) has the issue... mind telling exactly what phones u have and what carriers and stuff.... this has to be a software issue somewhere cuz it was working on stock roms...
My headset ( htc ) worked without a problem on the ORIGINAL stock rom aka. 2.2 ( or was it 2.1 ) when i updated to the OFFICIAL 2.3 rom via the built-in upgrade now feature in the phone it stopped working, so in my experience it seems to be a 2.3 problem or smthing
so it seems as if a drivers problem in gingerbread for us :S... everyones from a different country...
unless somehow the manufacturing is not as solid as i thought...
- so i seem to have gotten my htc headset working with virtuous 1.29.... I had to flash another kernel (unity v3 in my case) ... and the headset started working, has a little echoish sound ... but better than nothing
I have the same issue here : IS with Orange France
So problem started with stock rom. HTC headphone ok, iphone headphones ok, then i bought sennheiser CX880i and then i mic was not properly detected and never able to get a sound out of it.
Had the same issue with custom rom later on : Virtuous unity. So i buy another brand of headphones with mic today : Klipsch S4i ... same issue with custom rom virtous unity 1.31.
will try other kernel to see if its the same...
it is worse with this kernel as now my iphone mic is no longer recognised...
Hey there fellows,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S I9000 that I've been using since Froyo. As an accesory, I've always used the Motorola S9-HD A2DP headset to listen to music and take calls wireless.
The thing is that ever since I've started flashing GingerBread ROMs (stock), it started to mess up.
Let's begin to enumerate the issues:
1) After having the device paired, simple turning the headset on wouldn't connect to the phone (as it worked before 100%)
2) With the headset turned on, if I go to the Bluetooth menu on the phone and "click" to connect, it would say connecting and one of this things would happen:
- "Connecting..." would display forever until I shut the BT radio off
- It would connect and immediately disconnect, even sometimes the headset shuts down too!
- It would connect to one of the profiles: the audio one or the headset one, but not both
- 1 out of 50 times it would connect to the audio profile online and finally be able to play music through them
3) While the headset is playing music (i.e. connected), I turn it off, and sometimes Android keeps showing the icon as connected, for like 10 minutes, until it eventually times out
As you might guess, I've been searching since this arised for a solution, comment, similar behavior reported from other users, etc, without luck; neither here at XDA, Google or other related forums. I've found some *similar* stuff like car audios disconnecting but finally they fixed them or were some issues with the car app or something, unrelated to this.
This started happening ever since the first GingerBread I've flashed; now I'm on stock JVS and the same thing still goes on. I've tried before flashing any kernels (as stock as it gets) and this happens too. I've tried after flashing pretty much every kernel (to see if they somehow fixed this) and the problem persisted.
Let me be clear the the headset works great; if I use it with another phone (Nokia) it doesn't present any of these issues; neither did here before GingerBread!
So far, the only remotely possibility to use it fine and that works 95% of the times is:
1) Erase the headset memory of paired devices
2) Erase the phone memory of paired devices
3) Pair the device
As you can imagine too, doing this EVERY TIME I want to use the headset is an awful lot of pain!
Well, thanks for your time and for reading so far... any kind of pointer, advices, consolation that you can provide would be more than thanked for!
Best regards,
Anyone?
sorry no solutions from me.....but I did incur a similar situation when I flash jvq stock (music player would stop playing music and make bootanimation sounds)before flashing over to re by darky.....since being on darkys the problem has gone.maybe try a custom rom!!!

That's a good thing I didn't try! I refrained from flashing a Darky because all the "extra" steps involved besides directly flashing the files from Odin and also the auto voodoo lagfix kernel that converts unless you put the files to NOT to on some directory... plus the "bloated" experience over a stock ROM.
I think I should try one though, and also think that the BT should work OK in stock too! First I'd like to confirm if it's a "known" issue with the Ginger ROMs or not...
Anyway, thanks for your advice, might flash Darky soon!
its amazingly easy to do...just follow the guides to the word.....

Hi Everyone,
I have a weird problem. I tried installing skype from play store yesterday and DSPPack for player Pro and ever since i am having this weird problem.
1) When i plug in a Headset/Earphones the phone does not recognize it. The Audio from the phone calls continues through the earpiece and Music is routed to the Speaker
2) When i restart the phone with the Headset/Earphones plugged in, all the audio is played only through the Headset/Earphones (removing them the audio is not routed back to the earpiece or Speakers)
3) I found this app called SoundAbout, using this app i am able to switch between the Earpiece/Speaker and Earphones/Headset.
Can someone guide me as to how to fix this problem. I have done factory reset twice already but of no use
Thanks and regards
Sanjay

I'm on stock JB retail.EU too. I tried the features that make you problems to find out whether I've got any issue. Both video and Skype through headphones work normal, sound is transmitted via headphones. I don't use any market video player I suppose that you use MX Video Player. Try with stock player, you'll have excellent and smooth video playing. If you want to use other player because of subtitles, I recommend BSPlayer.
But what is important for the beginning is to eliminitate possible cause of your troubles. I suggest you to try these:
1. Inspect how are headphones connected. Thin click is to be heard when connected right. They shall not be inserted less and not beyond this click.
2. If you have bluetooth headphones or you can borrow them (stereo not calling headset) try whether you have the same problem with them.
3. Remove video player and check if the problem still exist with Skype.

1) The problem is not related to Hardware, otherwise SoundAbout would not work
2) Same problem with blue tooth headphones
3) I have removed skype, Player Pro
I installed Player Pro and not MX Player
I even made a factory reset (Settings - Privacy - Factory data reset).
I again made a factory reset now and as i mentioned before... the phone does not detect anything plugged into the Audio Jack. If i restart the phone with something plugged in the audio jack, all volume is routed only through the audio jack (if remove the plug, there is no audio from the earpice or built in loudspeaker) and i have to restart the phone again

Then is it obviously that you have problem with the system (JB or kernel). As I mentioned I have the identical system and no issues with voice switching. You could try to flasIt the JB once more but I wouldn't recommend. Since you have practicaly new phone the most logical solution is to bring it to the service. Its better that the service take the risk of succesful flash and it is usually done really fast.
