Hi everybody. I have the t mobile moto x 32gb on ATT. Works great ..the best phone no questions. I have an older car with aftermarket JVC unit with bluetooth capabilities inluding A2DP(which works great by the way) but the microphone of the JVC is not good so I don't use it for phone calls. I had that issue before where after the phone being connected to the car and disconnected (when I leave the car) the sound is super low it shows max but it is not(the moto x has great crisp and loud sound both on the earpiece and the speaker), so I have to restart the phone and this will fix my issue..but since I am not using it much I was ok with it...Now I have a 2010 Prius with blueetooth handsfree calling but no A2DP(that is ok with me I can use the AUX). The microphone on the Prius is great people are saying they hear me great and so do I. But now I am facing that issue again..
Is anyone familiar with that ? It is really annoying that I leave the car where I was in a conversation with great sound I lock my car and walk on a busy street and cant here what people are saying no matter if I am using the speakerphone or the earpiece..I have to tell them that will call them back in a minute after I restart my phone.
PLEASE HELP !
THANKS
Anything ?
Try persist+ from play?
Bluetooth volumes have been haunted ever since 4.4. Hell... plugging in the charger when I am on my vehicle's bluetooth changes the volume.
Hoping this finally get this fixed in 4.4.3, but until then, I have found a number of tricks.
1.) There is a sweet spot on the volume scale (around 70%) that is best to leave it at.
2.) I haven't had to restart my phone... usually just cycling BT off and on again restores original volume. Sometimes even starting/stopping media playback fixes it.
I can confirm to have the same problem. Hope it'll be solved in next updates.

Something odd was going on with my Kaiser today. I always use my headset for calls and today when I made calls it automatically turned into speaker mode and I couldn't talk through the mic on the headset, but I can still listen. The speaker was on all the time and I didn't even turn it on. After I restarted the phone it was fine.
Has this ever happened to anyone? and what is the reason for that?
I get the same but only on the initial pairing of the device.
Unlike you however, I actually WANT to know how to activate this "feature"
For instance, I have tomtom on it, it would be great to have the voice coming through my car speakers via bluetooth
It's done it once accidently but never could replicate it again
well.. I was listening to music on my phone and the sound was still going through the headset, but I had no idea the speaker was also playing the music.. everyone was staring at me on the train and now I know why..
Hey just tried connecting to my Blue ant supertooth light hands free.
it paired Ok but I have two problems when using it.
1. the hands free wont auot answer & i cant find if there is a setting on the diamond to set this.
2. when i receive a call as sson as i press the answer key it disconnects the phone from the hands free.
any ideas?
thanks

I had the same issue with other Win mobiles too. Maybe some issue with the windows to bluetooth?
I suspect so, but no one else has mentioned it in other posts
can anyone shed some light?
I don't have this issue at all, I am using Sony Stereo headsets right now.
The biggest issue for me right now is...after I finished using bluetooth, the phone will be muted until I soft reset. And this is relaly annoying!

No problems here pairing it with my car. Maybe a soft-reset can help?
Yea I'm having this issue with the Motorola i710 headset....only mine disconnects after about 4 minutes into a call....same other issues
I'm having problems too with Bluetooth headset/hands free... I'm using Dell BH200 headset which does stero wireless and hand free calling... When I dial numbers I can hear throught the headset, music plays fine through the headset, however it seems as soon as the phone connects/it goes into sleep it drops the headset and the small ear speaker in the handset works... Its annoying... I'm going to test with platronics hands free tomorrow...
Also, when I make a call, like a few seconds after it connects the phone's screen turns off... I thought it was only supposed to do this when you bring it up to your ear i.e. when light sensor in the ear speaker detects little light..?

I think I solved the problem with muting the phone after using bluetooth: using TF3d configuration tool I disabled the music tab. Now i use wm player for music and, during 1 day ,I had no problem - my phone is not going to mute anymore.Please try this method and post here the result. A lot of Diamond users have this problem and is few topics o the forum related to this.
When I make/get a call while having my phone plugged into my car stereo's Aux input, the call volume is very low. I previously though it simply wasn't coming through at all, but I happed to get a call while the engine was off, and could just barely hear the call volume through the stereo. Even after cranking the phone, stereo & aux level setting in my stereo, the volume's still too low to be used while driving.
Is there a fix, setting, or work-around for this? I really enjoyed using this as my hands-free solution.
One more thing, when I use the stock earbuds with a mic that came with the phone, the volume's fine. I know the phone recognizes headphones with and without a mic from using Tasker.
Thanks in advance!
Hi!
I have a new car stereo with an aux port. I wanted to connect my phone to it, but I discovered the following issue: When I'm in a call, the sound is excellent through the car speakers, but the other side can hardly hear me, because the microphone works as in a regular mode (has to be next to my mouth). And when I press on the speaker button, the sound comes out of the phone and not the speakers (which is pretty crappy).
I used stock until recently, and tried it out with cyanogenmod 7 with no success. Is there a way to make it work? I don't mind using another rom instead.
Thanks,
Ophir
Nobody encountered this?
I have encountered this!
To my knowledge (though I haven't searched around THAT much) there is no way around this... sometimes when I have the caller come through my speakers, they will get feedback from themselves into the phone from their speech. I always just unplug my phone from the AUX port. Total pain in the butt.
If you find a solution, please share it!
Hi,
i have a problem with the notifications when headphones are plugged in. When i receive an email/message etc the headphones go quiet, i've always found this normal because my music is dimmed to let me hear the notification sound.
today i came to realise that the music is not actually dimmed. it actually stops output via headphones and uses the loudspeaker instead. this is probably annoying for other passengers on the tube.
anyway to change that so it stays on headphones? or do i have to wait for an update?
can others check if they have the same problem please?
thanks.

This horrible bug has impacted the stock firmware since the gs3 was released. CM sort of fixes it so it definitely isn't a hardware issue. I called Samsung to complain and they told me it was a feature. Funny, because all it ever does is cause problems. My HTC devices work fine with headphone notifications... Also you may notice that if you have your headphone connector plugged into your aux input in your car, AND Bluetooth hands free, that stock firmware will require you to unplug the cable while driving to hear the sound over Bluetooth. Another thing that HTC got right and Samsung failed on.
Samsung failed big time on this. I discovered this stupid bug when I had just received my S3 and had the headset plugged into it while working in the office. Every fcking time I got a message/email/notification the phone speaker would go off and after 4th time or so of the notification sound going off, colleagues at work got pissed and told me to shut the sound.
I had no idea why it did that, when I have the headphones plugged in I expect the phone to be completely silent. Apparently Samsung disagrees
Anyways, I found a fix and it's called SoundAbout, available in the playstore. You can set it up so ANY sound comes exclusively out of the headphones when they're plugged in. I ultimately switched to an AOSP rom because the app requires a service running in the background, which takes some ram. my i9300 was already at it's limits with free ram so this was a trade off, but with the i9305 this shouldn't be a problem at all.
Really don't understand why they don't fix or opt to make this a feature. Also, all the samsung based custom roms here also seem to incorporate that bug/"feature"
