How stream audio from phone to windows system? - Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers

I had used laptop speakers as audio device to play phone's audio using Bluetooth on my previous phone.
However, I've not been able to do so for this one. I searched and found that the phone should support A2DP profile but how are we supposed to find (enable?) that?
I also installed Microsoft Windows Mobile Device Center as well as tried installing drivers from Motorola's website but neither of them worked.
Somebody please share the steps to stream the phone's audio to laptop if you know.
Phone is unrooted with stock ROM and the laptop os is Windows 10 (if that matters )
Thanks

Calling on my pc

Hi,
Does someone know any program for WM 6.1 where you can call with youre mobile on your pc when there is a connecting between youre pc and WM phone?
On this moment I use My Mobiler to controll my phone on my pc but I miss a function on it for calling so the sound and microphone will be used on my pc.
That would be very nice and handy!!
Thanks in advanced!

The only way I'd see to have sound is to use a PC with bluetooth, and on the phone set the PC as being a "headset".
Hi,
That doesnt work in my case...
I can only file transfer and do some networking functions.
My pc can not function as a headset.
Thanks!
Well, AFAIK the phone audio path in WM-based phones does not go through the PDA part, so there's no way to hack into it by software via network or whatever.
I don't see another solution. Maybe you can try changing the Bluetooth stack on your PC with the Widcomm or Bluesoleil ones for example, as those support headset profiles.
Thanks for that info.
Than I will try it with an other bleutooth stick and hope it will work!
Just to make sure, I mentioned "stack" not "stick". I.e the bluetooth software on the PC, not the hardware dongle. The dongle should be fine in any case.
Ohw.... I was already installing another stick.
Wich software ie do you mean then?
I am installing the Sitecom software now, is that what you mean?

Never heard about that. But I gave 2 examples in my above post.
Ok, I thought that where the dongles.
I will figure it out somehow, thanks!
I've never tried making a call through your phone through your PC but for bluetooth internet sharing file transfer and a few other things bluesoleil has worked great for me

Software needed to stream PC webcam to Phone

Hi everyone..
I am looking for software that will allow me to access my PC's USB webcam and stream images to the phone... If possible, also stream the audio of the room.
I would be connecting the phone via WiFi to either the same network or a diffrent network.. I want to use it as sort of a home security measure.. I have no problem if I have to install some software on my computer as well... I am running Windows 7 on my computer... Thanks in advance..

[Q] Connect WP8 to windows 8 for bluetooth streaming

Hello,
I've got a Lumia 1020 and I'm trying to connect via Bluetooth to a windows 8.1 device. I'm able to pair the devices, but as soon as that process is complete, the connection drops. On my phone, I can tap on the name of my computer, and it will reconnect, but it lasts for literally 3 seconds, before dropping the connection again. I've tried connecting to both my Surface RT and my windows 8.1 ultrabook with the same result. The phone will connect to my car stereo just fine, and I never have to do anything with it. Is there some sort of protocol that's missing in Windows 8 to allow phones to connect via Bluetooth? My main use for this would be music streaming, and using my tablet as a handsfree device.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Dustin
There isn't really any way to do that unless you are using something other than Microsoft's generic Bluetooth driver. I'd recommend checking out Trendnet's Bluetooth dongle or something that has broadcom drivers and they are extremely feature packed. My several year old BT 2.0+EDR from them works great!

Thanks for the reply, I'll give that a shot!
Have you tried opening "View Devices and Printers" from desktop control panel? From there you should be able to right-click on your Lumia and click "Control".
I haven't used any Lumias but I'm able to stream from and to my Ativ Neo with both my Surface Pro and Lenovo Lynx running 8.1
Sorry if I'm misunderstanding your question.

Z1 Throw via WiFi problem.

Hi guys,
I have a some problems with Throw function in my Z1. Firstly I want to sorry for my poor english. I wish you can understand me.
I have a PC and VAIO laptop, and Throw via WiFi doesnt work. If I enable Bluetooth it works correctly, but you know, range of BT is terrible, so I want stream music via WiFi.
If I use PC Companion, wireless connect work perfectly, I can copy files, and update my phone, but when I use Throw, and select PC or laptop via WiFi it loading for while and finally nothing happens. Even sound timer always display "00:00". When I click Play button, it's again the same - loading and nothing.
In Windows Media Player I turn on Stream->Allow remote devices to control my computer , and in further options "Allow all" in sharing streams.
I fight with that since 3 hours, and I give up... Anyone any idea ?

I have no idea what you're trying to do but :
Throw means throwing informations with your phone not sharing or taking control of another media.
With my Z1 i can throw music or photos to my TV for exemple (that simply sends and plays the music on my TV).
What do you want to do exactly?

I want to be able to throw music to my laptop or desktop while all three devices *Z1 Laptop Desktop* are connected to same wifi network.
Also what is the best cheapest way to connect my phone screen to my non-smart TV? I do not opt from ChromeCast
Hey there, guys.
I'm facing this problem too. For some reason "Throw" stopped working or works when it wants.
Long story short, i have .757 NUT's, Rooted, LB and Xposed installed with not else than Super User Mod.
When i try to use Throw, i can't find my Samsung Smart TV (In the past it was able to); funny thing is that i cant use Throw for watch videos on my PC using XBMC, but XBMC can access to my content vía uPnP and can reproduce the videos, phoos, etc. I use skifta which does "the same" than Throw and it works perfecly, it can find my TV and can reproduce the videos, but i can't understand why my naive APP which use DLNA wont work.
Any fix or workaround?

BT Pairing to Windows 10.

I'm trying to pair my Nexus to my windows 10 laptop using bluetooth and have it so that I can accept and handle calls from my laptop. I recently purchased an Asus dongle - BT400 - that is compatible with HFP, HSP, and A2DP. However, my problem is that whenever I try to pair my phone to my pc I'm running into issues. What happens is that the phone will pair, however it will not connect afterwards. Typically I should be able to select the device in my BT devices menu on my phone to connect, however nothing occurs when I do that. Also when hitting the cog it does not list any services available, nor is Windows able to connect to detect services. I have verified that I am able to stream audio using the same dongle on my Windows 8 desktop. I have updated to the most current driver and still am not having any luck.
I should also mention that I am running cm 12.1.

Beats me but should test these things on stock. 10 out of 10 times it a CM problem. If works on stock then it is CM.

Sadly, I was presented with the same issue on stock. I actually put CM on to see if it made a difference. However, occasionally I can get the phone to try and connect, but I get presented with a BSOD. I've researched and it appears to be an issue w/ win10.
