While using my phone on the car i plug in an audio cable to listen to music. The phone goes into driving mode as moto assist detects the movement (i guess), then i can say my phrase to wake up the phone, but the voice that reads me the messages and results is ultra ultra low, it is there, but I have to max my car volume to hear it. Is there a setting somewhere that I am missing? Im on Stock Lollipop.
TL: DR: I cant hear the voice of the phone through the audio cable in my car.
If it helps at all, I have found that the problem is present also on bluetooth. Thanks.

OK this is a bit convoluted so please bare with me:
I have a motorola T605 installed, but do not have it hooked up to my car stereo. I use a 3.5mm cable from my Note 3 to my car stereo, and the T605 just for phone calls, BUT I do use the controls on the T605 to skip tracks.
The problem I have is it works great, until I make or receive a phone call, then the Bluetooth AVRCP profiles cease to work, and the volume keys, which were being used to skip tracks before the call, now only adjust the phone volume, and the T605 itself blinks Blue (indicating phone profile connected) instead of flashing yellow (indicating phone and media profiles connected) as it was before the phone call.
Once it happens the only way to restore it is to shut off the bluetooth car kit (ie turn my car off). Powering the bluetooth on the phone off/on does nothing, as when it reconnects it still only have the phone functionality.
When I look at the setting>Bluetooth menu on the Note, both before and after a call, it always says that both Phone and Media profiles are active and connected.
For the record I am using X-Note ROM.
Any suggestion? Thanks in advance everyone.

Ok so the moto T605 is connected via bluetooth, and under bluetooth settings both phone and media are checked correct? BUT your sending the media via 3.5mm jack. I hope I read what you wrote right. If I did, I think you need to UNcheck the media box in bluetooth settings and just have phone connected. This way the music will play via 3.5mm until the phone rings. Then it will mute the 3.5mm and you'll hear the phone call over bluetooth connection. Also since the T605 is still connected via bluetooth it should still change your tracks.
Try that or tell me I read the whole post wrong and we'll try a different scenario. lol
I think you misunderstand. The audio is playing fine out of the 3.5mm jack. My goal is to keep the AVRCP connected so I can use hte button on the bluetooth car kit to control the audio player functionality of note 3 when not on a call.
One of the things that was frustrating on the old X was that driving mode was sort of useless if the device connected to your car Bluetooth. My understanding is that there are two reasons:
1) The primary reason is a2dp. All audio is routing through Bluetooth and unless you car is set to the Bluetooth/aux input, you don't get any of that audio. The phone is sending to the car but the phone doesn't know the car isn't playing it.
2) moto sort of assumed while on Bluetooth in your car, the car is handling everything and you don't need their Assistance.
Thoughts on these? Any way for the features to still work on the new x while on Bluetooth?
Two years later... did you find a solution?
I too am finding it annoying that Moto X won't cut in with an announcement over the car stereo. I've just come from Windows Phone 8.1 and it had no problem doing that. Have you found a solution that works?
I find that it works quite fine. In my phone BT settings, I set my car bluetooth to media only. I set my BT earpiece to calls only. I get all moto drive, Google voice notifications over the car stereo. My phone calls go to the earpiece for privacy. Moto drive still announces calls over the car BT stereo.
Reading the original post, my car stereo is always on BT. I stream music / content through my phone when I'm in the car. I don't use the radio or CD player.
what the title says. Is it normal for Texts to be read aloud over the phone speaker even when paired to my car bluetooth?
Every car stereo is different so I hope this helps.
When I'm connected via Bluetooth with both phone and media selected in Bluetooth settings there's 2 scenarios. If I'm listening to the radio the incoming text is muted and will not play through the phone speaker or through my car speakers. If I select media on my car stereo to listen to music that's on my phone via Bluetooth then incoming text will play through my car speakers. I put all my music on a flash drive and use the USB port. Then I uncheck media in Bluetooth settings. Incoming text come through my phone speaker but phone calls still come through car speakers

Mine does not read incoming texts through my car speakers, and volume lowers so much on my phone that I can't hear the text being read. Phone calls are not an issue. Everything routes through my car speakers. Seemed to work fine when I had the Moto X 2013 edition. I've tried changing every Moto Voice setting I can find without success. No issues streaming Google Play Music or Pandora through the Bluetooth car connection, either.
I've recently purchased a lovely headset from XiaoMi for my Huawei P20Pro.
It's Mi ANC & Type C In-Ear Earphones. Model: JZEJ01JY.
It has lovely audio and works fine with most of the features except...
When I made calls, the headphone will not hear any sound at all. no dial tone, not even when someone picked up the phone on the other end.
I noticed a quick fix for this error is to turn on the handsfree mode when you made the call; after you hear the sound from the handsfree mode, turn off the hands-free, then the sound will start coming in through the headset.
Another option is to wait until you hear the dial tone then only plugged in the headset.
It is not quite ideal considering the hassle of having to do so.
The error was so niched that I could not find generic help online at the moment.
Anyone shares the same pain or could provide some help here? Thanks!
Sounds like a compatibility issue. Use the stock earphones and check of the problem also persists.
Same problem with stock headset
Hi, same issue with the original headset that came with the P20 phone. Same clumsy solution. Have you solved it?...
I cannot use the mic when Bluetooth is connected in any apps, it just records blank, no voice typing, assistant, nothing. This is when connected to car Bluetooth or Galaxy Watch. doesn't even use said devices mic. When I disconnect the Bluetooth the mic works again instantly. Driving me bananas especially considering i'm connected to watch all day. Is anyone having this problem?

I had this issue with the 2XL when connected to my car bluetooth. Would not accept voice input. I just stopped using this feature and just use the phone microphone instead. Looks like they still haven't resolved this issue.
Do some searches and you can find that you aren't the only one.
only thing i noticed with BT is that when Im connected to my jeep.. I dont get SMS notifs (sound).. and I have my typing make sound and that is absent while connected to my jeep BT radio..
