[Q] Bluetooth and voice diversion and cars :) - Samsung Galaxy Gear

Hey guys,
I have a BT car headset which allows me to listen to music through A2DP and take telephone calls with it's built in microphone.
However, the built in mic is CRAP for voice activation and calls where as I can use my Gear to voice activate stuff and it works perfectly when driving.
However, if I dial using my watch, then the conversation goes through the watch, so 2 questions:
- Can I dial with the watch, then have my conversation via the car stereo's BT?
- Going one step further, can I have a conversation that uses the mic of the Gear and the speakers of the car?
I know this is all a question of BT diversion, but I don't know how to achieve it. Tasker?

Voice command issues

I use my diamond in the car a lot. I have a jawbone, which i love, and I have a 3.5mm jack adapter to connect the diamond to the hi-fi so that i get driving directions and music through the car's hifi. I use MS voice command for voice dialling, and prior to getting the diamoind I used to love the message notifications through my headset.
Problem is, if you have the notifications turned on, when you get a message, the diamond cuts the music from the hi-fi, and switches all the audio to the jawbone, which means you can't hear the notification, and you go half deaf.
My question is, has anyone got knowledge of voice command to allow me to direct notifications to different outputs? I ideally want all notifications through the 3.5mm jack, so they play ont he car hi-fi, but I want to pick up calls on the jawbone. I also don't want to put all notifications to the diamond speaker (which would do the job when in the car), as then all my colleagues will hear the subjects of my e-mails when i'm in the office.
The options available in msvc seem really limited, and it's a proper fiddle to go in a change them when you get in and out of the car, so i've just got notifications turned off now, which is a shame.
Second question, can you make msvc control the TF3D music player? I've not tried playing with this so apologies if it's straightforward or been covered elsewhere.

Looking for an audio redirect program.

In my car, I use my Touch Pro bluetoothed to a Blueant ST3 speakerphone & at the same time the Touch Pro headphone connector connected to my car stereo. I can listen to mp3s thru the car stereo and during an incoming call, the Bluant controls the call audio exchange. When the call is over, everything switches back. Is there a way or a program to keep the call audio directed thru the headphone connector while maintaining the Bluant bluetooth mic capability?

Using voice outside of calls with BT headset

I've got a bluetooth headset (Nokia BH-503) which works great for calls and music.
However, I tried using it with the Teamspeak app, and found out the voice is still being recorded from the phone mic itself.
To add on this, when I try to record (with the built in app) or use voice commands - It doesn't work (It doesn't record through the mic. It just doesn't work at all.)
Is there a way to use a BT headset as a mic outside of calls? It's obviously possible, since it works on calls, but what about everything else?

[Q] How to use bluetooth headset with Google voice navigation?

When I use google navigation, I cannot get the voice to come through the bluetooth headset even though I can use the phone with the headset. I tried two different headsets, but when using the google voice navigation, the voice always come out from the Note speaker, and not the bluetooth headset.
Anyone knows how to divert the voice navigation to the bluetooth headset. I need it because when someone else is in the case talking, sometimes is hard to hear from the speaker, and it will be much clearer I can listen to the bluetooth headset.
My nokia phone was able to do that when using the Nokia map for navigation.
Goto Settings-->Bluetooth then tap OR tap and hold the Bluetooth device. You should then see a list of profiles the BT device supports. Be sure Media Audio is checked as that is how the G Nav sound is routed.

Bluetooth switching on incoming call with tasker?

Hey everyone,
Just wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to 'switch' my Bluetooth devices when an incoming call comes using tasker?
I currently have an Android headunit in my car but the quality is terrible, the person on the other end complains about an echo every call. I still use the headunit to stream audio though. I've given up on fixing the headunit, so I've decided to buy a hands free kit for making and receiving calls.
So I want to be able to set something up in tasker on my phone along the lines of "if incoming call, then connect to X Bluetooth device (hands-free)". Then after the call the Bluetooth will switch back to the headunit when the hands-free device is powered down.
Does this seem plausible? If not I will just have to do all Bluetooth through the hands-free kit.

Could do, but the lag might be problematic.
What I do is long press the device in the Bluetooth list and deselect media sharing for the headset. Then deselect phone & contact sharing for the head unit.
This works to route calls to my headset in the car.

Thanks for the suggestion, I have done similar with a Bluetooth speaker at home that I didn't want to do calls on. Would my phone (Nexus 6p) allow/need to be connected to the headunit and handsfrer at the same time for your suggestion to work though?

Yes, you can connect to both. I do it all the time. If you wait for a call to come in to connect to a device, you're likely to miss the call. Tasker would have to recognize a call coming in, then connect to the hands free unit then you answer the call. Lots of steps ☺
