I have an HTC HD7 phone, and a Jawbone ERA Bluetooth headset. I can connect the headset fine, and listen to music just fine. Problem is when a movie opens up the sound will only play through speakers . Anybody know if there are any settings to change this or they ate so proud of their speakers you have to listen to them with no other option?
Best regards,

ive been trying to find that out myself
It is a known bug throughout all WP7 phones I believe. Bluetooth headphones do not broadcast audio during videos but corded headphones work fine.
It's a sync issue, apparently. Getting the video and audio to sync correctly over bluetooth is apparently difficult enough that MS decided it was better to just not support it that to do it poorly. Wired headphones work, though.
ridiculous
i truly love my hd7, however it is ridiculous that ms cannot get the bluetooth vid audio issue fixed....it can be done on android, it can be done s60 what is the problem....i'm kind of irritated about this....i enjoy watching my video podcasts when commuting and was stunned when i figured this out after purchasing my backbeat headset....very, very weak....
I am able to connect to my car and use it to make and receive calls with no issues. When I attempt to stream music to the car it connects but the car will not let me switch to the phone audio to play the stream. I think it could be a bug with the ROM.
Anyone else able to use Bluetooth for music streaming in their car?
getting my One wednesday if my Best Buy rep was accurate, and BlueTooth music better work, that's what I always use for playback!
Using it with an HS3000 hard wired into my headunit for the audio profile while simultaneously connected to the headunit itself for the phone profile and its working fine. Perhaps theres a firmware update for the headunit in your car?
I'm not able to get it to see my Sony Automotive Bluetooth player but I haven't messed with it while not driving to really go in to it.

You are receiving the audio through the 3.5mm jack. My phone connects to the car and audio calls work great. I'm also having an issue with my TV. It shows connected but no audio plays, however when I press the volume on the phone it changes on the TV. I'm thinking something is missing or messed up in the ROM. I'm not sure if this is happening with other versions. It would be good to know.

Well your question seemed to be a question of bluetooth connectivity using the audio profile, so i gave you one example of when it does work for me. It doesn't matter that its outputting from the HS3000's 3.5mm in to a line in in my car, the audio gets to the dongle is the point i was getting at. Here are a few other things i have tested with it since i was curious as to whether this is a bug:
Moto S305, LG Tone, LG Tone+, Francois et Mimi Trois speaker, generic bt speaker i got as a door prize, and a samsung soundbar. Nobody can help you test whether there is a bug if there no information as to what you're trying to connect to other than "your car". As far as i know your car's bt protocols might be outdated and HTC left out some code for their BT drivers to work with older systems or if it is a genuine bug.
I appreciate your input, I thought you meant the cable was connected to your phone. It's wierd that I have a 2013 car and my EVO 4G LTE and an S4 both work but the new M8 doesn't.
I have no problem with streaming over BT to my car stereo or routing phone calls through it. I do have stuttering audio while streaming, however, which upsets me greatly.
I went back to the car and started messing around with settings and it now works. I had to disable and enable audio streaming. Audio is clean and crisp. Thanks for the feedback!

At times my audio will not come through. turning off BT in the car and turning it back on seems to allow the audio to work.....
I do however get the audio stuttering from time to time. Sounds like a CD skip almost. Yea I have been trying to figure out if there is a setting missing or something....most likely a bug though.....
Is the stuttering with all apps? I havent had much issue now but on my evolte i used ti get stutters whenever i transitioned towers or went screen off using gonemad and some flacs, poweramp seemed to be a bit better at it though.

Wow, not good. It's posts like these that help me to be more patient as I wait for my upgrade in July. Hopefully the little one like these are ironed out by that time.
I'm also getting random Bluetooth skips. Probably kernel related.

phone is not the issue here. Most smartphones have the capability to stream music over BT. The problem is usually when your car is setup to only handle calls over BT, nothing more. there's a workaround for this: You use Mono Bluetooth app in combination with your favorite music player app. It's not HD, but it works.

It seems my factory car stereo (which is only a year old) doesn't like the M8. I tried my 7 year old BT headphones and they streamed like champs. Stupid factory head units . I'm trying a couple of changes in audio_policy.conf to see if they make a difference. I don't think kernel is the issue here.

Does your radio have the ability to turn Bluetooth audio streaming on/off? That's what worked for me with my factory unit.

No.
Alright, fixed up my streaming issue. I'll explain later and post a fix. Busy right now.
So what I ended up doing was updating audio_policy.conf in /system/etc to allow lower bit rate audio over BT/A2DP. Currently the file only allows streaming at 48000, while some devices can only handle good ol' 44100. Adding in the additional value seems to have smoothed out my streaming for the most part.
I did notice some intermittent skipping when my device was in car mode and/or charging at first, but those issues seem to have sorted themselves out now. I would recommend deleting your device and re-pairing after making the change to ensure the connection is set properly.
I'll post up a flashable zip shortly to allow others to see if it helps/works for them.
EDIT: Zip attached. Sorry it took so long, Firefox was giving me problems.
@Captain_Throwback thanks bro, will give it a try. I've noticed it only to skip when using stock HTC media apps. Using Google Play music doesn't skip for me. May be a coincidence? Anyways, flashing your fix.

Hello Everyone,
I'm having this issue for some time and was trying to solve by myself but my resources are done.
Scenario: OP3T 128Gb OOS 4.0.2 (no root) playing music using Spotify on a car Bluetooth device (Toyota Corolla - picture of the stereo attached).
Problem: Audio cuts during play. I can also listen some noise indicating problems on audio transmission. Iá attaching a 1 song recorded in the car where is possible to listen the audio cutting some times during just one minute. It's impossible to listen music with this problem. So annoying.
No problems listening to music on other bluetooth devices like earphones or a audio totem. No problems listening using audio jack.
Workaround: When I do a Network Setting Reset the problem goes for a while, normally for a day. The problem come back after some time and I need to reset network settings again. I'm basically resetting network settings every day.
My wife's iPhone plays without any issue. I had a Moto X Style (Pure) before and I had this problema after flash some CM13 based ROMs, solved by flashing the original fw some times. (Moto X Style have some problems and if u flash modem and other thing once it won't work)
Anyone else had this kind of problems? So I need some help to figure out what is happening.
HELP!!!!!
Well, my bluetooth connection is stable. But sometimes when connecting to my car's bluetooth it starts playing music through the phones speaker instead of transmitting it to the car. I have to disable and enable it again - kinda annoying when the party is in your lap, at least while driving in a car.
I've just bought the Play - and it auto-upgraded during setup so I'm now on Android Pie.
I have noticed that bluetooth audio "stops" and restarts - with audible glitches every 30 seconds or so if Wifi is enabled. If I disable Wifi then the audio is perfect (well - not glitchy)
Data source is downloaded (audio book) so it isn't a streaming issue.
Also - if I stream Netflix and use the phone speaker - all works fine. If I stream Netflix and have bluetooth headphones on - I get buffering.
Anyone else noticed this / got a work around for this problem?
I just tested this with my Honor Play running Android Pie. With bluetooth headphones along with WiFi, there were no skips or glitches with the audio. Might be an issue with your headset or something.
I use Netflix with JBL BT speaker or Bluedio T4 BT headphones. Works perfectly.
Thanks for the responses. Odd that I didn't get this issue with this headset and my previous phone (Galaxy S7). Thanks for confirming it is isn't a problem with Android 9.
What type of headphones do you use? Which manufacturer?
