On older Windows Mobile phones you could delete the codec for Audio and leave the one for phone. Maybe you could do this on older Android too, I can't remember.
Now it's just a Check Box to disable it.
Problem is, every time I start my car it gets re-enabled when it connects the phone. And sometimes will even start the music player on the phone. even when that source is not selected.
Car is 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee with 8.4AN Nav package.
It's Nav is no where as good as the Nav in the phone.
While this isn't an answer for bluetooth on the whole,
On the 8.4, go to the bluetooth settings, go to the second tab on the left for audio device, and disconnect there (while leaving the phone connected). As long as it has seen that once, I don't believe it attempts to reconnect it again unless you tell it to specifically.

good luck with this though
I'm not sure if this applies to HTC phones but on samsung ones you can longpress whichever pair device, select options, and uncheck media. This should disable music and should still alow phone calls to come thru

I think that's what the OP meant when they said:
"Now it's just a Check Box to disable it."
If not, that's entirely valid

Correct. I can disable it fine. Until the next time you start the car and it rechecks it.

Hi. I belabored the correct area for posting this message, and decided, based on research, it's closer to an O/S question than anything else.
Summary: I have an AT&T Galaxy Tab with a paired Dell BT keyboard that I use at home and a Logitech BT keyboard that I use at work. It is also paired with a Plantronics 590A headset with A2DP. I'm running Overcome 1.6.3 firmware with the No-OC/UV kernel.
When I turn on either of those keyboards, the Tabby will display a "... keyboard connected" message after a short delay. All cool, so far. But when I turn on the headset, it never connects with the Tab. I have to touch on Settings / Wireless and Network / Bluetooth / 590Plantronics... and then it will connect.
The headset will connect automatically to other phones that I have, but not to the Tab (which is set to Media Only in the Options... which may also have an impact).
So... my main questions are: is this working as expected? If so, is there anything I can do to make a headset autoconnect? Change headsets? Change configuration? Hold my tongue a different way when I turn the headset on? More prayer? ...
Bluetooth seems to be a huge area of opportunity for Android (or maybe just for G-Tab) - with its audio cut-outs and so on - and I want to get the most out of it.
Edit: If automatic connection is not a possibility, is there a shortcut (preferably one that can live in the notifications area) that I can use in order to quickly "connect" the headphones after turning them on? (Bluetooth lives in that area as an on/off, but I don't see a way to access the BT options from there.)
This is a problem that has plagued me since I first got my Tab. The best I've been able to come up with is an app that shortcuts me to the Bluetooth Settings page (and I'm afraid I don't recall the name of the app at the moment, but there were many that did this as I recall).

Sorry dude but that doesnt make a difference. Wether its an OS question or not this section is for posting developments only, not questions. You post questions in the Q&A forum.

My mistake. I will try to discover how to move the thread.
I did do extensive research, by the way, but spent all that research in the problem at hand, and none in the "how to ask" section. Having said that, the "yes, this is a question" radio button could be smarter, then, huh?

Folks,
Sitting in a rental car wanting to connect your phone with the bluetooth handsfree?
Got a new stereo headset and want to pair it with your device?
Want to send a file via bluetooth to a friend and need pairing first?
Whenever you want to pair to a device or unpair from a device you have to go deeply into the settings of Android. If you finaly got there, the bluetooth pairing partner is out of pairing mode again...
That's the reason I wrote btPair. On opening the App you can scan for visible devices surrounding you and a red or green image shows you the current pairing status. With just one click you can pair or unpair to any device around you.
It's that simple...
Available on the Market now.
If you have questions, rants, comments or feature requests leave a message here or send me an email.
Cheers

Thanks for buying and your response.
So, how do you like it? Everthings working as expected?
Cheers
Didn't quite like it. It's full of bugs and have sent you an email of the problem. Hope to see it resolved. Thanks.
Just to clarify: It is not FULL of bugs. There was one bug on one specific device. It was a duplicate device entry (the discovered device was listed after each discovery additionally) on a Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus with HC 3.2.
I was not able to reproduce this behaviour my Xoom with HC 3.2 and all my other devices (including emulator). However, I made some changes and added a function to display already paired devices uppon startup of btPair, and added a button for that.
So version 1.1 is published now.
Cheers
Many thanks to the developer. Now it doesn't show duplicates anymore. Hopefully the developer will add more feature in the future.

On every rom I've tried so far, the OK Google voice command sometimes works from the lock screen, sometimes not. When I go to check the settings for voice control, the"Always on" and "Personal results" are grayed out and obviously I can't use OK Google from the lock screen. But then sometime later the options are back and no longer grayed out. It works when it wants to and I have no control over it.
Is this a known bug? Or is there some custom rom setting that's interfering with voice detection? Very strange.
I thought it depended on whether the device was charging or not

No it doesn't. The Nexus 6 has the always listening feature like the Moto X. It's just weird that's been broken on 3 different roms.

Anyone have an issue where the 1st time you initiate the okay Google command that it brings up an unsuccessful web search? I have to initiate it a second time and it works. If I uninstall the Google search update everything works fine. Only when I update it do I run into this issue.
try wiggling these toggles? might help?

Actually yes, I have done that. But it's only a temporary fix. I don't see why, after wiping my device 3 times, and it still keeps happening. When I switch roms, I make sure to do a complete wipe from twrp (factory reset, then advanced and hand select wipes except internal storage, then wipe cache and dalvik before reboot into new rom) I don't understand why 3 different roms have the same issue.
At this point, I'm so happy with Candy rom that I can overlook this issue, but it's just nice if everything would work as intended.

Hi everyone,
I'm hoping someone here has had this issue and knows how to fix it.
So I enabled directions via Bluetooth in Google Maps, but yet the car's audio system doesn't play them.
Music plays fine over Bluetooth from my phone, so at least I know the phone or Bluetooth are the issue.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Sent from my G8441 using Tapatalk
there is a option to play in car speakers (bluettoth) or the phone itself (even when conected to bluetooth). Is it playing in the phone at least, whil you're in your car and with bluetooth on?
^ once I select the option to play over Bluetooth, then the phone doesn't play them.
So in effect I don't get any directions, which is a bit of a problem.

OK, I tried something else just now: playing music from my phone over Bluetooth, the Google maps directions work over the car's audio.
But if I'm listening to the radio or CD, then it doesn't...
It's the same in both cars, so looks like a phone/android bug?

Uh dude, that's normal...
If your Android phone is connected via Bluetooth to your radio, of corse radio itself must be on Bluetooth mode (not radio or cd) it order to listen audio.
What is NOT normal is not being able to listen audio (google maps or any other audio media) even if your radio is in Bluetooth mode.

I think they disable that option because it wasn't "smart " enough to detect if you were driving, a passenger or even on a train.
There are two options to enable DnD (do not disturb). None is a native option. First, like I do, install android auto and set the bluetooth device. The second one is an app named driving inspector.
Hope it helps.

It is possible to "copy" the native options from my S7 edge?
I want this function because I use it every day with no other app installed :/
PS: I searched "driving inspector" on google and play store but I can't find it.
