So the double tap on the volume button shortcut does not appear to work when the phone is connected to a Bluetooth device. If bluetooth is just turned on it seems to work fine, but whenever it actually connects to a Bluetooth device like my car or headset, it does not work... it just turns the volume down on the Bluetooth. Does everyone experience this?
Bit a big deal but i can't snap a quick photo when I'm in the car.

Since I upgraded to Summiter's Test2 and now the multi-installer, I can not switch to phone handsfree. There is a button on the call status page that says "speaker on". It used to be I could press that and it would switch to speaker phone (away from BT). Now pressing that button does nothing.
The reason this is a problem is that it's easy to leave the BT headset in a different location than the phone. If I initiate a call from the phone, it automatically connects to the BT headset.
On recieving calls, I know to press the hard button for "talk" and it will let me use the phone in the traditional mode (even if the BT is connected). BUt when I initiate a call, I don't have any choice like that.
Thoughts? Am I the only one with this problem?

Hello,
I use my Kaiser to play music through my car stereo's bluetooth adapter (Pioner Avic D3). My 'problem' is that the phone automatically connects to the stereo for hands free telephone operation, but I have to go to Bluetooth settings and set the stereo to 'Set as Wireless Stereo' every time I want to play music or use voice recognition through the bluetooth.
So, does anyone know of an easier way to either force automatic stereo bluetooth (A2DP/AVRCP) connect. If not, how could I make a *.lnk that I could place on the start menu to run a macro that would do this for me? Any other ideas are welcome too!
Thanks
Look into Writing a MortScript that will do this.
Side Note: Officially This doesn't belong in ROM Dev. Moving to General. Thanks!
Search for A2DPSwitch. Little program that will toggle wireless stereo on/off when run. I mapped it to a hardware key (long press windows key) so that I can easily activate my headset.
Start menu is no good as you have to reconnect manually everytime the connection is lost anyway (when you get out of your car with the phone for example).
I've got a Verizon tab and am trying to connect to a Bluetooth headset so I can make video calls with Fring or something else with a little more privacy than using the speakerphone.
I can't get the tab to find the headset!
I have successfully paired with a Bluetooth keyboard, mouse, and the Jawbone Jambox. While the audio out on the Jambox works fine, the built in mic does not work for speakerphone calls with the tab either.
Anyone have any idea what I can do?
Refer to the headset menu to perform a hard reset on it (on a nokia headset this done by simultaneously pressing power and action buttons till it alternates its LED between red and green). Activate the bluetooth on the tab and make it discoverable. In bluetooth setting scan for devices till the headset appears.
Same Issue

I have a TMobile tab with the same problem. It connects to my btooth antenna, but not my two btooth headsets.
My headset bluetooth also facing the same problem. I read the manual and it say i have to press the answer button for more than 8 second as a hard reset to the headset. Later my tab can detect the headset.
You should read the manual and try to do hard reset to your headset
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
Can't seem to find out how to reset the headset. Nothing in the manual or Google (it's a Samsung HM1100).
It's weird - the Astro Bluetooth network shows the headset in its Bluetooth explorer but the GT will not even see the device to pair to.
Firstly you open bluetooth under setting, wireless & network. Press scan for bluetooth. Result, it will not show any bluetooth found. Press back button once only. And again open bluetooth setting. Then you will see all bluetooth devices already detected.
This is a bug. I happen all the time to me.
Please try it

Still No Luck.
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.
Hello! Thank you in advance for any help.
My Goal is to make a Profile / Task to enter into "Car Mode" and then when the car is Disconnected Go back into Normal Mode.
I always have my BT headphone connected. If they are connected to my phone the car will not connect to the phone. So If i make a shortcut to initiate that would work so Click shortcut "Enter Car Mode", Disconnect from BT ear buds, Connect to BT Car head unit, turn portrait mode on, Start CAR App.
Then when BT Car Head Unit disconnects turn portrait mode off, kill CAR app. (Dont really need it to reconnect to Earbuds because they would of turned of)
I've played with states and Near BT but nothing has really been consistent or worked correctly. Any Help would be great! Thanks!
Use secure settings if you want to connect/disconnect a Bluetooth device
There's an app called Bluetooth Auto Connect that also has Tasker integration. I've never used it so I can't say how well it works or if it will even do what you want to accomplish. It's free so it might be worth a look.
