I give up, I'm finally just going to ask. - Asus ZenWatch 3

If there's one thing I never wanted to do with the watch, is answer and or talk to it. When the phone rings I just want to things that I have yet to figure out.
1) How to have it NOT send sound and mic functions to the watch when answering the phone, and
2) the phone to have a ringtone that I decide it to have, either via Android Wear, Feel the Wear, or the phone itself.
I want all the other sound, mic, etc settings and abilities but not use it as a phone. I like that the watch rings when the call comes in, I actually hear it and I can ignore the call on the watch if I want, and here's the kink, it's not every time that it picks up the call, but it does. And I ALWAYS answer the call from the phone.
The other issue is that on calls there's a ringtone that seems to not exist. In phone settings > sound > ringtone it say "unknown ringtone", AW it's set to one thing in the ones to choose from, in FtW it's another (in attempts to see which has precedence) but I think the low volume "booong boooong booong" is just a fall backk system sound.
Hoping it's a permission setting that I missed or something. Otherwise things are golden.
ZW3 and Google Pixel XL
Android Wear version on watch is still 1.5 though the phone app is 2.x
Thanks

Number 1
Settings > Bluetooth
Second setting (don't know the English expression, but it's about playing smartphone audio on watch)

In the phone I can go into settings > Bluetooth and select the Gear Icon next to the watch. It displays the name for the watch that I can edit, then under the words "use for", there are two check boxes with the option for "Contacts" and the other for "Phone Audio" (both checked by default. you think that the audio option turned off will turn off the possibility to use the watch as a phone, but maintain the rest?

No, I meant on the watch, sorry.

In the Zenwatch manager app under the "Tools" tab you can switch off Remote call control

That's been off from the start. That was the first thing I thought it was.

Did you try what I suggested?
Gesendet von meinem ONEPLUS A3003 mit Tapatalk

Yes. That kills the Bluetooth connection all together and blocks any attempt to reconnect.

What? Works for me. Did you try an factory reset?

Yup. Now in my screwing around, I've managed to kill all audible notifications to the watch
Oh well, like every other time I'll get it back

i dont really get what you mean by the second question but i can answer the first one.
when you get a call and you answer by swiping on your watch it automatically sends the audio to the watch. if you dont want this. you can either answer the phone call directly on the phone or touch the bluethoot sign on the call screen on your phone, it will switch back to your phone that way. sorry for the crappy english, if you don't understand what i mean i will try to explain it otherwise

How to turn off the Call Connect/ Call End Tone?

Does anyone know how to disable the "Call Status Tone" on the N1? Every time I make a phone call or answer a call, I have to wait to hear the beep before I can talk. It has driven me crazy since I got this phone. I was playing with my wife's Vibrant and came across the option to turn it call tone on or off in her Call Settings, but there is nothing of the sort on the N1.
Does anyone have any idea how to do it? I would be eternally grateful!
Thanks in advance!!!
Anyone?

Never even heard of this before.
Are you sure it's the phone, and not a third party app or something (like Google Voice)?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
I am pretty sure it has been making the beep since I got the phone and it has happened with every ROM I have installed on the phone.
When a phone call connects, there is a 1 second pause then a beep, then I can start talking.
Am I the only one who has this happening?

Doesn't happen to me.
ive never run into this either, and ive had both tmo and att n1
ive got the vibrate after call answers thing turned on in cyanogen but no beep...
i you google voice and sometimes just call with my cell number too and no beep
when you say you get this across different roms, do you do a full wipe between roms?
if so i'd imagine its hardware
I finally figured it out today, it only happens when I am on my Jabra headset. It is fraking aggravating!!!
Does anyone know how to turn it off?
I'm pretty sure that's the headset doing it, not the phone.

Off to the Jabra forums you go.
Mines makes the same annoying sound overtime you make a call a tone plays in the speaker when it connects any ideas on how to turn this off? I just use the phone no headset etc
Either it's something your carrier does, or you've installed something that's causing it. It's not the phone.
thanks for the info

Get the best quality out of your headsets

As title say, this trick will give you a 2x quality to any kind of headset you connect to our phone, i dont think im owner of this trick, but i didnt read it anywhere yet
Follow this steps in order to activate this:
1_activate silence mode
(any kind of notification sound will disable the boost making you follow all the steps again)
2_plug in your handsets
3_open music and play a sound
4_in case you have an EQ open it after following steps 1, 2 and 3 (optional)
5_open the radio, in case its working for you music will stop as always
6_in the radio, press the button that allows you to use the speaker for listening (dont unplug the headsets)
7_Turn of the radio while its working with the speaker on (radio should close automatically)
8_Now quickly go to the music player and play something.
and thats it, you will notice a really big change in sound loudness and quality, but dont put the volume too high!, phone will detect that is too much for your ears and will disconnect the headsets making you do all the steps again.
Hope it work for you, it worked for me in both stock v20 and v30, in case your radio "dont work" or something like that i cant help, i didnt have that problem before
Did i help you? Dont forget to press "thanks" it wont take you nothing, good luck

Yes it is working fine. Just start and stop FM, it will boost good sound with ear phones. But we have run FM after every call and message to get this effect. We can easily find the difference with this procedure. B/t I am using stock ICS.

[Q] Music Player starts after I hang up

Hi all,
this one is pretty amusing at times, but mostly frustrating. So I have a this HTC One which was shipped with Android 4.1. Everything was great. Then I updated to 4.2 using the normal "check for updates" procedures.
Now, whenever I hang up or ignore a call, my MP3 starts playing. Systematically. Sounds like a bluetooth issue (most of my calls are dealt with through my bluetooth headset). I uninstalled the bluetooth app (Plantronics Voyager Legend UC), reinstalled, deleted and re-paired the device. No luck.
I can;t find anywhere a "playback" setting of any kind. Google-is-my-friend tells me I'm not the only one with that issue but so far, no solution.
If anyone has a clue, aside reverting to 4.1, I'd be grateful as this is quite embarrassing when you're in a meeting and you ignore the call... (good thing I got rid of my heavy metal MP3 files...).
Thanks,

I did get a chuckle on this one. The only suggestion I have would be to download a 3rd party music player, check it as the default player, and see if that helps.
Woops sorry buddy I didn't mean not to reply, just been busy. So yeah this is amusing at best. So I uninstalled all apps related to the headset, rebooted once more, and voila ! No more MP3.
As to why it ever happened in the first place, I'm as puzzled as you on that one.
Cheers though,
Well I spoke too early... randomly, after I hang up, there comes the music...
I considered slapping the phone on the wall but that's not very viable.
I went through all the settings for the phone, the music player, the bluetooth headset, I can't figure this one out.
Any ideas you want to throw at me, please do. Thanks,
I think I've been able to narrow it down. I think it only happens (but I have to confirm this) when the "car" application is on. However in the settings I can't see "resume music after a phone call" or something similar.
I think it's the "Car" application, however it's called, because the way the "play forward stop pause" buttons look similar to what's on the screen when the music starts playing... it's a long shot I know.
Do you allow your headset to be a control for the music player? If so, using the headset to hang up may well start the music playing.

[Q] Bluetooth/sound malfunctioning

Got Note 3 on launch day. Worked well until a few days ago when all attempts to use my Bluetooth speakers (Jambox and Big Jambox) began to result in the sound coming nearly inaudibly from the phone speaker. Additionally, when I attempt to use the auxillary jack in my car through the headphone port on the phone to listen to audio, the sound now comes out the car's speaker phone unless I turn off Bluetooth (on the phone). Even worse, after I attempt to use Bluetooth, the volume on the phone is stuck at approximately 25% of normal even with the all the volume sliders at maximum until I restart the phone. I have performed a factory reset without any change. I have unpaired and re-paired all three Bluetooth devices I use. Any ideas on how to fix this or do I have a faulty unit? Any help would be appreciated.

Finally...found someone who is having the same problem as mine.
yes.. im getting pissed off because of this to. Had to do a factory reset for nothing. Didnt fix it at all.
when i get into my car and turn the bluetooth on ... open the stock music app...it says "unable to play during call". Using another music app will result in the sound coming from the phone speaker (the one to use for calling)... reseting the phone makes no difference....
this is really annoying..

I did not have this kinda issue with the old version that came with the phone. After the newest update, it's kept on happening. So I guess its because of the update....
"the volume on the phone is stuck at approximately 25% of normal" => This actually is the reason why we can't play music. The phone thinks that we are on a call.
Your point about the volume rocker showing the call symbol is exactly what was happening in retrospect. And the phone, while it wouldn't play media files, would still connect for a phone call. This is all past tense because I swapped that phone out tonight and am really hoping that will do the trick. One would think that if this was due to an update, a whole lot more people would be having trouble.

Unfortunately, the new phone is acting like almost exactly like the old one now so software it is. I have found a couple of work arounds but hope they will be only needed temporarily.

Found an idea on another forum that seems (so far) to have solved my problem. One of the folks on the Android Central forum noted that when the text+ app was set to take incoming calls, the Bluetooth got wonky in exactly the same way mine did. When I unchecked "Enable incoming calls" in the settings of the text+ app, my phone started working correctly again (so far).

I get pops in my earpiece also sometimes. Sounds like DTMF tone. Network issue. Happened on my Note 8 also.
Next few times use headphones when making or receiving calls and see if it still pops.

Does it sound like the pop might damage speaker? If so, I would figure out how to mitigate it or exchange. Speakers are part of what makes a phone a phone and I don't y'all want to exclusively use Bluetooth to get around it, not to mention other reasons.
