PLEASE can someone give me some ideas.. - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a bluetooth headset that I use for calls when I'm driving to comply with the law here in California, but I also have a nice speaker system in my car. Whenever I connect my headset, it forces all audio to come through the headset as well as call audio. I know that I can go into the bluetooth settings for my headset and deselect the setting for media audio, but I would hate to do that every time I get into my car.. I have an NFC tag in my car and use Tasker a bit, does anyone know how to set this as a default setting or automate the setting change when I use my nfc tag?

Are you sure those settings don't persist?

Yep, 100 percent. At least on ARHD they don't. I've tested it quite a bit...

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.

Headset & speaker

Hello. I have an issue and i dont really know if this is possible! I want to have bluetooyh headset connected and be able to hear from the build in speaker. Is there anyway to do this? I have boca rc1 if this helps. Thanks in advance!
What do you want to hear? Music? Phone? Ringtones/Notifications? All should be possible...
For phone just untick the bluetooth while a call is active. For music, if bt headset is used by default, go to bt settings and unselect media option for your headset.

[Q] Disabling Bluetooth Media Audio?

Despite disabling the media audio output every time I connect my BT headset, it turns itself back on when the headset is reconnected. Is there a way to disable this permanently? I want to use the aux out on my stereo for music and the headset for phone, but don't want to keep disabling it every time I turn it on..
Frustrating...
Bump - anyone have any ideas?

There should be third party audio managers that let you pick which output is used for what, I can't think of any names but a little app store scraping should turn something up. That said, I'm sot sure if you can output music and stream a call simultaneously...

I just want it to retain the settings like it did in AOSP. When I set my BT headset to 'Phone Audio' and uncheck 'Media Audio', I want it to keep those settings the next time it connects.
Instead, it turns them both back on again. Which means turning my BT headset on while driving / listening to music results in the audio playing through the BT headset.

AOSP uses a third party audio manager, until it's available as a rom you'll have to find a different third party option. Almost any of them should save your settings...
Any ideas on the app? I've tried bluetooth auto connect as well as trying to set up Tasker profiles. No luck whatsoever.

[Q] why i need to tap the speaker button to get call to my headphone?

i am using a bluetooth stereo headset, and the stocked headphone with mic. when i get a call, i need to manually tap either speaker icon (in case of wired headphone) or bluetooth icon (in case of wireless) to get the voice in and out via headphones.
is this tapping necessary? cause when you don't have a free hand, it is quite inconvenience to do so. please advise.
I don't have to do that with my headphones. (I'm not using the stock ones though, so that may be it)

Have you tried just pushing the button on the headset, whether it'd be wired or wireless and see if it picks up the call? That's usually how it works unless you use auto answer when connected to headset

[Q] Read Text Message Over Bluetooth

I am trying to get my Moto X to read text messages though my car's bluetooth stereo. When driving, I'll get the pop up saying "Say Listen to hear message", it accepts the command, says "Reading..." but then I don't hear anything. Is there any option I need to enable to hear it though the car stereo?
I assume you're using MotoAssist. I don't use that but ReadItToMe Pro works well for me. It sends my text messages to any Bluetooth device or wired headset and senses when a device is connected. I thinks there is a free version too.

Touch less control might do it. Or you could try the dragon app.

It should work just like you said. I used mine yesterday to receive and send text messages. Have you tried a hard re-boot of the phone? Edit: Can you hear it say "Say listen to hear messages"?
If your stereo is connected as A2DP it should work with anything that comes over the "Media" channel. I use a small bluetooth dongle in my car that converts the wireless signal into a 3.5mm aux in. It saves me from having to plug in when I enter the car, and the bluetooth connection initiates several Tasker profiles.
Any sound that my phone makes that would come through the speaker as media such as Pandora, games, etc. goes through the bluetooth connection.

I tried ReadItToMe.
If my car stereo in on BT channel everything ok.
But if I'm listening to FM radio, I can't configure it to switch to BT, read the message and then go back to FM, as when a call arrives.
It looks working, but I can't hear anything.

Is it your car or the phone which is doing the popup? I have a UConnect system in my Ram, and when I get a text I get a prompt from the truck to listen to the message if I'm moving, or listen or read if I am not. The UConnect, not the phone will read the message. This is nice, because it doesn't matter whether I'm streaming from the phone, listening to SirusXM or whatever... If you're relying on the phone you have to either be streaming via BT or in actual phone mode with the system I have.
If it's like this, try unpairing the phone on both sides (vehicle and phone) Then re-pair, and make sure you wait for the prompts that your vehicle is requesting access to whatever, and accept them.
It might help to mention the make and model of the audio system you have, so people who also have it can chime in. Each of these systems is slightly different, and many have different capabilities.

If you have not already, perhaps try all the options under the How section in the ReadItToMe settings. I use the music stream option but I never listen to FM in my car. It's either audio from the phone or an iPod.

I already tried all options.
but... today, for the first time, it worked, using bt mono option.
maybe it's because of the new rom I flashed.
only one problem, voice starts after few seconds, so part of the message is not read.
isn't there a way to set a delay before start reading?

I have this issue too and I am using an aftermarket Pioneer AVH-X8500BHS head unit. However if I'm listening to Bluetooth audio, the audio will go quiet for a second as if a notification came in, but no notification will go through the speaker system and the phone won't make noise either. It's quite annoying cause then I have to look the phone to see what it was. I also have the same issue when using Motorola assist where it will understand the command but I can't hear the response.
Is it possible to set something up in Tasker to be able to play the sound through the phone speaker while still retaining Bluetooth connectivity for music?
I have also tried tinkering with the Bluetooth settings in the new assist that gets upgraded and 4.4.2, but to no avail.
