Is there an app for android to automatically connect A2DP when the handsfree connects?
I used to use an app called autoA2DP on win mobile.
At first pairing it connects both a2dp and handsfree, after that only handsfree connects automatically, any help would be appreciated as it's already driving me nuts....
Thanks!

Go to bluetooth settings, long press on the device in question, then options. Make sure Phone and Media are both checked.
Yep, they are... I can manually connect a2dp from both the car stereo and the phone, it just doesn't happen automatically like the handsfree does, had the same prob with windows mobile, but an xda dev user here developed autoA2DP to watch for a handsfree connection, then activate A2DP.
I don't know why yours is different, but mine auto connects for both every time I turn my Bluetooth headset on.
It does vary between headsets a bit. My Jabra Halo's connect automatically when I power on the phone or the headset. On the other hand my JBL Reference 610's had to be connected manually every time.
Still it seems odd though that is connects in handsfree and not A2DP, I always thought it was all or nothing. When a device connects it gives all available profiles and the phone decides what to accept. I don't know, sorry.
I have the same problem.. it does not auto connect with my car's bluetooth. The only way it auto connects is when I have the discoverable mode on (which has a limit of 116 secs or so). So an app that lets you be discoverable all the time would be great!

Same problem but reverse. My phone connects automatically to my phones music everytime i switch it on, however the more important headset/phone functions do not. I must manually disconnect and reconnect the stereo from within the phones bluetooth settings for both to work. Have looked through hundreds of threads found loads of people eith the same problem, yet no solutions. Would love an app to just disconnect and reconnect the bluetooth the moment it detects a paired device in range.... as yet found nothing...
Well... I'm getting the same.
I have LiquidAUX on my car and to have both phone and a2dp synced, I have to restart phone BT and LiquidAUX every time I go into car. And most of the times I can only have 1 connection each time, or phone is on and a2dp is off or a2dp is on and phone is off. It's really annoying since I had an HTC Hero with Android 2.2 and it used to work with no problems...
Hi guys,
Before one month I buy HTC Desire android and I have problem streaming audio through Bluetooth. I have connected the phone with my car and they are paired. Every time when I go in the car my phone is connected to the car Bluetooth automatic, but I'm not able to run A2DP.
I'm with latest Runney rom, before that I tested with MIUI XJ, but no success with both.
Can some one tell me if there is rom without these 2 issues - bluetooth auto connection and a2dp.
Thanks
Hey guys got some questions concerning BT.
I have noticed that bluetooth doesnt always reconnect when it should. Or am i missing something here.
I have my phone paired with my stereo receiver in my car.
- I get in my car and turn on bluetooth. After about a minute my phone pairs with my car and everything is good. I can do calls, stream mp3's via BT and use Pandora as well. Now i stop at the gas station to get gas or whatever. I shut the car of there for breaking the bluetooth connection. Bluetooth is still enabled on my android. However when i start the car back up the phone will not connect to the bluetooth in the car unless i turn bluetooth off then on again.
I'm assuming this is do to some time out count in the BT stack? is there a way to edit something in order to make this auto connect? Any one with greater knowledge on the subject school me a little bit here?
Thanks!
In my car, I have the ability to connect my phone via Bluetooth, but onky for phone calls. I cannot play music over Bluetooth. However, I have an iPod dock in the car. I was looking into buying a 30-pin to Bluetooth adapter. Would I be able to connect my Note 4 to my car's Bluetooth for phone calls, and the 30-pin to Bluetooth adapter for music at the same time?
Generally speaking yes. Unless they use the same profile, then you can have issues.
Hi,
I've recently bought a new car which has Bluetooth but rather stupidly I've just discovered that it can only be used for calls. So what I'd like to do is buy a 2nd Bluetooth receiver and connect it to the cars aux port so that I can stream Spotify to my car. But my question is, could I be connected to both Bluetooth devices at the same time and could I configure one (the cars) for calls and the other (3rd party) for music? If so how would I set this up on the phone?
Many thanks
Yes it could. I'm using it that way
Just disable calls on 1st and disable music on 2nd device

i'd have thought you are just not setting it up right in the car, but i had a Mini loaner that was also somehow only phone use and not music enabled. just weird.
in your bluetooth settings, there's an exclamation mark inside a circle that is used for device-specific settings (as any other phone has as well) that will let you choose phone and/or media for each device.
so your car will be phone only of course, but on your bluetooth receiver, you'd pair it, and you have the option to turn off the phone function for that receiver so that its an audio-only device
Bluetooth issues - phone "hijacks" Spotify control, turns off call-audio on BT devic
BT seems is super annoying. Not sure if it started on the last update (9.1.0.153) or it was happening before as well.
I'm experiencing two issues related to BT:
1. during a call through BT headphones (Bose QC35), the BT profile changes automatically: call-audio is being toggled off, and the headset is no longer being used for the call. Turning it on during the call works for a few minutes and then it toggles off again. Tried to un-pair the device and pair it again.
Might be important to note, I also had a laptop connected to the headphones at the same time, but I definitely didn't have that issue with my previous phone (Xiaomi mi5s) in the same conditions.
2. when using Spotify on a laptop. if the app is also running on the phone, it randomly hijacks the control.
I think it happens only when the phone is connected via BT to a media device, doesn't matter if the laptop is connected to the same one or not. It happens to me in two situations:
a. using BT headphones connected to both the laptop and the phone.
b. when the phone is connected to BT speaker and the laptop is connected by wire to a different set (to an amp via DAC).
in the above scenarios two different laptops are used.
It's really annoying,
Any idea how I can solve this?
Thanks
p.s. device version is VOG-L29, don't know if it matters.
