BT Headset and custom ROMs. - LG Optimus 4X HD

Hi all..
I have a minor problem for most that is important enough for me and keeps me away from all those wonderful custom ROMs..
That is:
The phone is set to "vibrate mode", I stream music through A2DP and it works great until someone calls me. Then the headset notifies about the call and the music I used to listen to is now played back loudly through the phone's speaker. That is very annoying, given that I discovered it when I was in my university's library trollolol.
I tried all versions, CM10.1, AOSP, AOKP and this happens in every single one of them. Only in stock based ROMs everything is working as it should..
This also happens with the apollo player and also with player pro.
Also tried Optimus Prime kernel by demetris_l, still the same.
Lastly, I also tried it with 2 different A2DP bluetooth headsets (Sony Ericsson MW-600 and Scosche tuneStreamII), both act the same.
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks for your time!

Update.. I managed to work around it by changing the applications I have been using.. Mortplayer works great and doesn't act like that, for instance.
Thing is, why did the apps like PlayerPro and Apollo worked ok and paused music playback during a call on the stock ROM but not on any of the custom ones?
Is it maybe that they can't use the READ_PHONE_STATE permission properly?

Thanks for providing a workaround atleast

thre was a guy saying that this doesnt happen to him, so dont you think it could be your BT headset?

Bluetooth A2DP

Hi Guys,
any of you experience losing system sound after using A2DP? I have tested several times and this happens without fail.
After using A2DP the sound output seems to be unable to switch back to the phone speaker. Meaning that no ringing when calls comes in, no sound when playing music etc....
The only solution is to reset the phone then it'll be back to normal.
Another problem is with the camera. Also after using A2DP you can use the camera. It's just a blank screen with the camera icon in the center. This also will be resolved after a soft reset.
any help is much appreciated.
I have this issue when using HTC's music player. No issue if I use WMP tho.
I have this problem too.
Also when using AVRCP with the HTC player, the commands are sometimes send to the windows media player.
Anyone else ?
This is now the 3rd thread on this topic... search and contribute to one of the others.
Radio and A2DP?
Has anyone tested if it's possible to use and listen to the built-in RDS radio with a Bluetooth A2DP headset? Thx.
Anybody can confirm that A2DP problem occurs only with HTC player?
hate diamond
love and hate relationship with diamond now
hah
anyway... i had yer a2dp problem too
and it was worse.. i end call.. the sound switches to the speaker.. so can u believe it.. in the train.. everyone hears my punk music........ so not cool
for yer case... i did sth and it worked
when you wish to terminate yer a2dp headset.. do the following:
1. off yer headset
2. turn off bluetooth
by doing 1 followed by 2.. it sort of "safely removes" the headset.. try it.. i hope it works for u

Agree, though there seems still no 1 fits all solution by linking A2DP - AVRCp to another player like Coreplayer - Pocket player.
Hope at least one thread of 3 will seek attention of a reg tweak expert

I think that is a big issue on Diamond and that some experienced dev must have it in mind. In other thread (don't remember it now) , somebody mailed HTC for this problem and the answer was that this isue is because he don't use HTC accesories.Bluetooth and a2dp are universal standards and have nothing to do with HTC accesories.
I suffered this yesterday. Was listening to music, recieved a call - answered call, ended call - music continues out of phone speaker!
Also whenever i disconnect from bluetooth stereo - no ringtones, no alerts can be heard. There is another bug if vibration is involved , it continually vibrates and doesnt stop. You HAVE to soft reset.
This is a serious problem. Why doesnt HTC test these things?
have u tried the rom 1.93?
Im using ROM version 1.37.401.3 WWE

I flashed yesterday with 1.93. After receiving a phone call the music continued on the phone speaker (not in headset) but my phone doesn't mute . I had no enough time to test more but I hope that ,,muting'' problem is solved in this rom
Im using the ROM Diamon Project V2 and it works fine. I use A2DP & TF3D Music Player quite alot and have not had any issues whatsoever.
A small surprise for all.
Put this application into windows\
tap once to activate it and tap again to configure.
in the configuration menu, set avcrp to the music player that you need.
for my case, i use gsplayer. and viola ...
this is what i used to do on my non-touchflo3d diamond.
u can try and see if it works for you.
I tried it on my german HTC Diamond but without success ..I used as path
"\Interner Speicher\programme\coreplayer\player.exe"
I also have this problem but not always!
Ruff-Ruff, You could make the difference here.
Will try to link with Pocket Player. if that works, than you're my Chinese hero ;-)

Notifications over Bluetooth?

Why don't notifications go over bluetooth? 2.1, cyanogem 5.0.6, 5.0.7, and now 2.2, and they always go to the speaker instead of my bluetooth headset? why is that.
Just a bump in hopes of an answer or resolution. Running stock here.
I frequently listen to music over bluetooth headphones. Notifications go through the speaker, so I frequently miss texts and emails. If a headset is plugged in, music is interrupted. Any apps to fix this? Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere? Thanks for any and all help.

Hmmm, OK, maybe it's the music player then?? I'm using MixZing Pro. Which app are you using for your music? I'm more than willing to try that as a solution.

Not the headset, that's for sure. The phone shouldn't care what it's connected to; it either sends notifications over bluetooth or it doesn't.
I'll test the stock music player, but I'm willing to be yours works because of the custom ROM, and not the stock music player.
ETA: Stock music player made no difference.

I don't have an issue with calls. It's missing texts and emails because the notifications from them don't go over bluetooth in a completely stock N1.

Unfortunately that doesn't do me any good if I don't want to run a custom ROM. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the information. With 2.2 on the way (even if a few weeks out) I'd rather wait for the official OTA than flash a custom ROM, especially since I'm on AT&T. Glad you found a solution that you like, though.

[Q] Strange issue with music playing out of headphones - PLEASE, PLEASE HELP!

Hello,
I'm believe i'm currently running Cyanogen Mod 7.1 on the LG 2X.
I've had no problems with the mod, everything was running smoothly then one day, out of the blue, the music was no longer working properly out of the headphones.
The best way I can describe is it as tho you are listening to music under water. The music of the songs play, but when the artist sings, their voice is sort of tinny, and doesn't play properly.
Another strange thing is that when I listen to the radio via an app, it works fine. A little quiet, but it is still clear.
I've had a fiddle with the settings on the music player, but nothing seems to change. I've tried a variety of music players and the problem still occurs.
I've been to 2 technicians and neither of them know what the problem is. They don't believe it is something to do with the hardware, more an internal issue.
I just really want to get this issue sorted, because it's very frustrating when I want to listen to music when travelling etc.
Please help, I'd really appreciate it.
P.S My phone will no longer connect to the computer. When I plug it in via USB, it doesn't pop up on the computer, and only shows a charging icon on the phone. If someone could help fix this i'd also be greatful.
Thanks guys.
For the audio problem, check the DSP manager app.
For the USB problem, check if you have USB debug on. (I think you have to look at Settings->applications->development.)
Have you tried different headphones?
I have a similar problem when using my Sony Ericsson headphones on the LG. It seems the 3.5 mm jack is somehow different. So when I use the SE set, I hear the voice distantly, echoed and so on. And its definitely not from the software.

I also have this problem with my sony ericsson headphones, I have to press real hard on the jack so I can hear properly, so I just use the headphones that came with the LG instead...

[Q] Bluetooth music on car radio

Hi all,
This may very well be a stupid question, but I can't find any information about it. Here's the deal. I have CM10.1 Stable, with original kernel, setup on the SNG. I also now have a bluetooth car radio. The pairing works fine, and calls can be made and heard on car speakers. However, whatever I do, I cannot get a music player to send music to the bluetooth. It just plays on the phone speaker. I've searched for settings, in bluetooth options, in the music players (tried two), but alas to no avail. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for the help.
Tony
Don't remember about 10.1 but 10.2, the music through Bluetooth works fine..

OK, so how do you get it to work, step by step?
1-pair bluetooth device
2-Play music using apollo or player pro or whatever player you may use..
And is that it?
As I was saying, the problem here could very well be the user... But I can't figure it out !
Thanks,
Yeah. There is no need to open apollo. I just select BT audio on car stereo and it starts playing from where I left last time..

[Q] Headphones aren't detected automaticlly by phone.

Hello.
Today i've flashed a nighly port of CM9 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2722721), running naa-ics-04. Everything was fine to the moment I wanted to listen to some music. After conecting my headphones, the first thinh i saw that the small icon doesnt appear at the notification bar as it happened to on other phones. the second thing was that when I played a song through Play Music, it was played throug speaker, not the connected headphones.
I had this problem on other rom also, and it was fixed by flashing a file that i just dont remember. Don't tell me that i shoul use Soundabout or any simillar apps, cause' its not a real sollution.
Thanks in advance, spindrion.

use nAa minicm. it does not have any such problems. if you want to use this rom then there is an app that routes sound to headphones rather than the speakers. try that out you will find it in some CM11 or CM10 thread. next time you have a such questions post it in the respective rom thread. its better that way. OP can help you out and there will be one less thread.
