Bluetooth works fine in my car as it should. However, the mic that came with the car's headunit makes me sound like a metal robot and makes it almost impossible to have a conversation. I can hear the person I'm calling just fine over my car's speakers. If I switch to speakerphone, I sound a million times better to the person as my phone is mounted on the dash, but then I can't hear them because of road noise and weakness of the phones speaker.
So my question is this. Is it possible to still use bluetooth but to be able to bypass the radio's mic to use the note's mic and have the person I'm talking to still come out of my car's speakers? I understand using an aux cable would probably work like this, but I'd rather have it work with bluetooth. as its one less thing to plug in.

I bought a connection for my diamond to connect to the aux input of my car stereo sort of hoping that it would work by allowing me to use the car speakers to speak & listen from phone, listening was not a problem, crystal clear but the person on the other end could not hear me. Is there an easy way to get this sorted? My stereo does not have bluetooth.
Depends on what sort of "connection" you have bought and how it works. Is it meant to be a handsfree unit, in which case it should come with its own microphone?
Or is it a USB type headset lead unit that is only meant to be used as a means of playing music via the car stereo, in which case you probably can't attach a microphone and can't use it as a handfree unit.
The way to sort it is to buy a bluetooth handsfree unit complete with microphone. These communicate with your phone using bluetooth and can either have their own amp and speaker or be wired into your car audio (usually via the phone facility in the DIN connector on the back of the car unit).
If you want to use for both phone calls and listening music it is best to get one that supports multiple Bluetooth profiles, including handsfree and A2DP.
I just wanted to buy a stereo bluetooth handsfree for my device and finally I decided to buy an EverE T909s about 40 $...
it pairs correctly and fully to the device and music sound is good... but when there is an incoming call or when i call some one its microphone is so weak and people cant hear me!
I just paired the headset to another phone but it worked properly...
any solution?
I have the same problem. But in my case people can hear me when T909S is connected to the phone (Samsung), not very good, but they can.
What I'm concerned is when I connect this headset to my computer and try to use it for Skype, whatever settings I use the sound from Microphone is always very squeaking and it's impossible to use this headset as my headphones in Skype...
Any solutions?
I don't really know how to explain...
I use my Nexus one in my car for calls.
I use a jack cable which is plugged into the radio. So I can hear my partner over the speaker in the car. Very good.
But, the others can't understand me. It's crappling all over.
When I put the cable out of the jack and use the normal hands free on the phone, everything is fine and the others understand me very well.
By plugging into the car radios jack, it starts with crappling my voice again.
Does anybody have the same problem? Or is it fine on your Nexus all the time?

sounds like the phone might be trying to find a microphone in the radio
Yes, could be. But why? What can I do?
It was very cool when somebody can try it, if it works on other NexusOne.
well the default headphones had a speaker in them so the jack is made to work as a speaker jack and a mic jack. however im not sure why it is expecting a mic when there is no information being sent back to the phone.
Simple expanation, I think - noise canceling functions.
When you're in speaker mode, it's settings are probably changed to account for a voice coming from a distance and being roughly equal for both mics, while when in regular mode it's working and expecting significant signal difference. When it doesn't get it - since you're speaking from a distance - it doesn't "think" you're talking, and cancels your voice partially as it would cancel outside noise.
There is a hack somewhere in General or Dev section, how to disable noise canceling. You might try.
OK, when I find it.... Sounds good
I hate making new threads but I can't seem to find an answer. Maybe I'm using the wrong keywords.
I use my N1 in my car alot. It's my main source for my music and hand's free calling while driving. I use the aux jack on my stereo to the N1 for music.
When I get a call it would ring though the speakers and I would touch the slider to accept the call. The caller would hear me crystal clear and I would hear them though the speakers just fine.
Now when I get a call, they can't hear me. They say I sound like I'm far far away. I can hear them just fine. But I look like a madman in my car screaming and yelling just to be heard.
So what I have to do now, is answer the call, and touch speaker, which only plays the voice though the speaker phone. They hear me crystal clear but sound is no longer going to the car speakers.
Anybody have this problem or know what's causing it or even a push in the right direction?
I have this excact same problem.
I came from a milestone using a standard 3.5mm audio jack and calls went really well. But when i tried my nexus, i got the same response, "sounds liek your far away".
I tried a few AUX cables but they all seem to do the same thing. So my solution was a aux cable with a built in mic.
I ended up modding the headphones that came with my nexus to get this working. Removed the earbuds and soldered a 3.5mm jack.
Now when i talk using that cable with a built in mic, ppl hear me very clearly. So i've jsut been using that cable since. I'm sure you can buy a premade aux cable with a mic at any local mobile audio store. I saw one at a BestBuy mobile here.
Hope this helps.
but the issue is that at one point it DID work normal with his nexus. i think what is going on here is the phone originally read the aux input as just standard audio output. but now its reading it differently somehow, i just dont know why. its almost like the difference when a phone thinks you have headset connected vs audio out connected with no mic support. no idea on a solution though...

I was thinking on buying the Belkin one with the mic right at the aux jack.
Hope this helps.

Exactly, it DID work. I can't pin point when it happened for me. I was thinking maybe it was when I went from Eclair to Froyo?
I'm almost positive that using the phone over Aux out broken with the update to Froyo. Has anyone tried this yet with Gingerbread on the N1 or with an NS? I'm hoping they fixed this, it's a really, really frustrating problem.
My fear is that everyone at Google got free car docks so they won't ever fix it because it's never a problem for them.
I also have the exact same problem. Thought it never worked for me, I only recently sets up my car mount with aux. Anybody found a solution?
Is it possible to have the phone output sound through auxiliary for phone calls if the attached aux does not have a mic. For example if I plug it into my car speakers, or if I wear headphones not made with a mic. I'm not sure if its just a problem with my phone that doesnt allow this, it shows the headphone icon yet for phone calls it still outputs through the earpiece. Calls output fine if I use a earbud that has a built in mic.
This has been an minor annoyance since I got the phone a year ago and I've been hoping after all the updates they would finally fix it.
