[Q] Remaining battery of bluetooth headset. How to? - Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Good evening everyone.
A friend of mine with and Lg G2 and same bluetooth headset can display the remaining battery of the headset from the phone.
Is there a way to enalbe this feature on the Z3C?
Thanks in advance.

Hi, I can confirm that. On the same LP, LG G2 connection with BT device (Lazer BT headset in motorcycle helmet) showed the battery level, which was very useful. I connected the same device to the Z3C and battery level is not visible.
The specs:

A2DP Blueooth Car Stereo won't reconnect to mobile

I have the Pioneer DEH-P9800BT Bluetooth Head Unit in my car, which supports stereo BT music streaming from any A2DP device.
I also have the HTC TyTN II Mobile which supports the same.
I have paired the two devices, and on the initial pairing successfully played music from the HTC through the Pioneer. When that worked, the BT Audio icon appears in the title bar of the mobile (headphones with a musical note in the middle).
However, after switching off the car and later returning, I have 2 issues:
1) It is impossible to reconnect the BT stereo music playback, unless I delete the Pioneer device from the list of BT devices within the mobile phone, then pair them again. Nothing else seems to work. Simply, I just want all music to be routed through the Pioneer whenever it is in range of the mobile.
2) I have set the mobile phone as "Phone 1" in the Pioneer, and have enabled "Auto Connect", yet it does not auto connect. Every time I get in the car I have to manually scroll to Telephone>Function>Connect Phone>Phone 1. You can imagine what a laborious pain that is compared to my previous 5 year old Nokia Bluetooth Car Kit which just auto-connects whenever my mobile is in range.
Are you able to solve either problem?
Anyone ?
I have a similar issue with a Bluetooth clip (allows my Shure headphone to be used over bluetooth)
I have to go Start/Settings/Connections/Bluetooth, click onthe headset and "Set as Wireless Stereo", whereas my car bluetooth headset will auto-detect and re-connect.
Is this poor hardware or is the A2DP protocol not defined for re-connection standards, so different appliances act differently?
I found A2DP Toggle via Google. Just download that for free and it'll solve the issue!

I've been using A2DP Toggle myself for some time and must say that it is an awesome little utility. One word of caution, however, is that people (myself included) have been finding that the today screen plug-in has a tendency to really drain the battery fast! You can read a bit more on this issue at http://www.teksoftco.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1626&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
To get around the battery drain problem I've removed the plug-in from my today screen and simply generated program shortcuts on my today screen (using Pocket Plus or UltimateLauncher) to execute the utility in command line mode. So you get the benefit of toggling A2DP on/off with a single screen tap without the downside of battery drain from the today screen plug-in.
To turn A2DP ON create a shortcut that runs:
"Program Files\Teksoft\A2DPToggle\a2dp.exe -a2dp: on"
To turn A2DP OFF create a shortcut that runs:
"Program Files\Teksoft\A2DPToggle\a2dp.exe -a2dp: off"

Profile software for Tytn2 for BT

I'm looking for some software to configure different profiles.
Situation:
I have a car with a charger and a BT radio system.
I want to disable BT when i'm using the phone roaming, 'normal' profile, but when I go into my car and put it in the charger, it switches to the 'car' profile and swichtes on BT automaticly.
I've seen this with old Nokia's. If you pressed the standby button once you got the option between 'silent', 'normal' and 'vibrate' or something.
Is there something like this ?
Hi viper,
Spb Phone Suite will do this for you.
Actually - with automatic profiles, it has the ability to change as soon as you connect the car kit
Check it out - it is available fully-featured with a trial.
SPB phone suite should work for you but I'm partial to SBSH phoneweaver. Phone suite has call filtering, phone weaver has more options from a profile perspective imo.

Phonebook Transfer

I know its not supported natively, but I was wondering if anyone was working on the bluetooth stack for phonebook transfer?
I use my phone hooked up to my Pioneer headunit in my car via Bluetooth and would love to have my phonebook in the car so I could see the caller ID right on the screen.

If it supports AD2P then it should do it automatically. My JVC KW-NX7000BT does.
A2DP is not for phonebook transfer...
A2DP is designed to transfer a uni-directional 2-channel stereo audio stream, like music from an MP3 player, to a headset or car radio

The profile for phonebook transfer is PBAP.
Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP, PBA)
Phone Book Access (PBA)[1] or Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP) is a profile that allows exchange of Phone Book Objects between devices. It is likely to be used between a car kit and a mobile phone to:
allow the car kit to display the name of the incoming caller;
allow the car kit to download the phone book so the user to initiate a call from the car display.

Ok I got my definitions wrong, but it should still transfer it automatically.

Why would it work automatically if the default Bluetooth stack doesn't support the phonebook transfer protocol?

So I guess its not working on mine then, I'm just imagining what I'm seeing on my unit. I haven't made any extra adjustments.
Bluetooth Profiles
Hi,
I have the same need for bluetooth phonebook transfers. I have done some research, and my issue (and maybe yours) is that my bluetooth headset unit uses the following profile for Phoenbook Transfer and sync:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth_profile
1.26 Synchronisation Profile (SYNCH) , otherwise known as the PIM synchronization profile.
The Sony Ericsson HCB700 headset that I use, and many Parrot models with LCD displays and built-in phonebook Sync, use this.
These are not currently included in the Bluetooth stack of Cyanogen 4.0.4 ROM that I'm using, and probably not in the next official release of Android.
I know some Parrot units have the ability to upgrade to use OBEX, which the following group of developers are working on. You can refer to existing discussions and apps here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=551182
It would be great if a ROM developer would look into incorporating both the SYNCH and PBAP/PBA profiles into the next release....

[Q] [9001] Bluetooth speed Tweaks

Hi all,
generally we speak about GPU tweaks, WIFi tweaks, 3G tweaks etc...
about Bluetooth there's some useful tweaks to gain some communication speed?
I ask this because, I'm using Torque application to monitorize my car ECU (the phone interfaces with an OBD adapter over bluetooth).
The OBD adapter I use is the fastest available to now, when the phone is paired only with it I get about 70pid/sec max and 55 average (the data showed on the phone is very smooth and is like real-time) but if I pair also the onboard hands-free capability of my car the communication drops to 20-30 pid/sec and the ECU data showed on the phone some time is laggy and not like in real time.
There's the possibility to set the priority to a specific BT device when more than one device is paired?
Thanks in advance.

As far as I know, you can't connect other thing than headset with windows phone 8. :crying:
Audio profiles work, file Transfer via OBEX Object Push works and Apps can implement their own Bluetooth functionality but this is only available for that App. To my knowledge Runtastic supports their Pulse Belts.

I have an inquiry made to Samsung about it. No answer yet. We connect a Plantronics Savi W200 to the phone and it works.. Why does the phone recognizes the keyboard, starts normal connection and after the full run starts over with connecting.. over and over Just not to understand
Here the answer from Samsung to my inquiries
Yes our Ativ machine does support bluetooth keyboards but you would need to contact the actual manufacturer of the keyboard you chose first to verifiy compatability as we do not have access to all suitable keyboards
I think either you asked incorrectly or they responded incorrectly, because the Ativ line is used for Windows 8 / Windows RT devices as well as Windows Phone 8 ones. It sounds like the response concerns W8/WRT, not WP8. Boo...
It was clearly asked for the Ativ S WP 8 - several emails have been going back and forth until the quoted answer came
It seems you are right, the answer is incorrect. I bought the IKKB10 keyboard which should be compatible, but the same as before, connect/disconnect cycles. Send an inquiry to the manufacturer.
Finally the answer from Microsoft - no Keyboard at all It read
Windows Phone 8 supports Bluetooth 3.1. This is an improved version of Bluetooth that automates the pairing process between Windows Phone 8 and Bluetooth devices, such as phone headsets, car audio systems, speaker docks, & NFC pairing.
Windows Phone 8 supports the following Bluetooth user profiles:
•Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP 1.2)
•Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP 1.4)
•Hands Free Profile (HFP 1.5)
•Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP 1.1)
•Object Push Profile (OPP 1.1)
•Out of Band (OOB) & Near Field Communications (NFC)
The Bluetooth HID (Human Interface) profile required to support keyboards and other input peripherals is not present in the Windows Phone 8 Bluetooth stack - this has been the case since Windows Phone 7.
We can complain by MS, does it help, probably not...
