Phone doesn't ring when bluetooth is paired - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I'm sure there is a simple fix for this, but...
When I have my Jabra BT250v paired with my AT&T Tilt, the phone does not ring. If I'm wearing it, then I can hear the call coming through, it actually announces who is calling, pretty cool, but I don't wear it constantly. So, how do I get it to ring on the phone, again?
Thanks,
John

Don't unpair, just turn the headset off

That is one solution. However, then I can't answer the phone with my bluetooth. By the time I turn it on and let it connect with the phone, the call goes into v-mail...
Any other thoughts. Is there a setting on the phone, that I can uncheck, that would allow it to ring on the phone, instead or in addition to the bluetooth?

Ringing through speaker when on bluetooth?

How do you get the phone to ring through the normal speaker when connected via bluetooth to a headset. In other words, I would rather the phone rings through the normal speaker, I then hit the button on the bluetooth headset and take the call in the normal way though the headset.
any ideas? thanks
Hello,
Someone has an answer to this?
thanks
Has anyone figured out a solution to this? I don't like to wear my headset all the time just to hear when my phone is ringing!
Okay, perhaps it's just me and these other guys having this problem? Even if you don't have this problem, could you respond to let us know it's just us?
Okay, I tracked the problem down to MS VC 1.6. Now, I have to figure out a way to get this to work, since I really don't want to give up my voice dialing in order to have ringing...

The easy solution would be to put the phone on vibrate.

Alright, this describes the behavior perfectly:

So, the work around is to set "Use handset spkr or wired" under notifications in VC.

Well, that usually is louder than the ringer.

Disconnect Bluetooth after call

Hello,
I searched a program for my Kaiser that disconnects a BT device, such as carkit or headset, when a call is finished.
With disconnecting I mean that the device is not connected anymore at that moment.
So when I have an incoming phonecall, I have to push to connect my BT device to my phone. Then I can pick up the phone with my device.
Who knows were I can find this?
Thanks,
Temba
Hmm, I don't see the point.
When an incoming call is received, before it starts ringing the Kaiser will look for a known paired BT device, if it is on but not connected it will connect it automatically. If it's not on at that moment you're out of luck for that call.
Just leave your device connected... you should already have to push on your device to take the call, no?
Kilrah,
The point is that when I end a call, I want that my BT device disconnects from my phone. Reason is that when I walk to my car, I want to use my BT carkit and not my headset.
Maybe I had to ask how I can unpair a BT device from my phone after a call. But 'unpairing' is for me that I have to enter a pincode every time I want to connect.
Any ideas?

Hi,
This is an issue between HTC Windows Mobilie devices and carkits equiped with a parrot chip.
As far as I've understood all Windows Mobile 6.1 devices are affected.
I myself have a Kenwood DNX 8220 BT Double DIN Head Unit in the car but there are more Head Units and carkits that make use of the Parrot chip CK5050 if I'm not mistaken.
Does anyone have a tweak or a registry setting that is able to fix this?
I've allready tried to change the COD registry value to: 52020C which is suggested as a solution in a parrot forum topic:
http://www.parrot.com/forums/english/viewtopic.php?id=5620
It didn't solve the issue

Oops, had missed this reply back then. I know it's way old, but as someone brought this thread up again, never know if you might read it...
AFAIK this isn't possible. If you have 2 BT devices, paired and powered on but not connected, when a call is received / placed form the phone it will use the last one that has been either connected or selected and "Set as hands free" in the BT settings. If you want to make sure the phone connects to one of them without you going in the BT settings and set it as hands free, you need to turn the other one off.

How to make call from Note 3 and not have it go through Galaxy Gear watch?

Anyone know How to make a call from the Note 3 and not have it go through Galaxy Gear watch? Iam not sure if its possible. If I start a call from my phone I want to use my phone for the call.
Thanks
I thought that's how it was supposed to work

The call unfortunately goes through the watch. Annoying
If you initiate a call from the phone, it should only transfer when you hit the headset button on the screen... might want to reset the Gear and re pair it...
Or turn off Bluetooth and it won't go through gear.

Something isn't setup right if your calls are going to the watch by default. The only calls that go to my watch are calls started on the watch, calls answered from the watch, or calls transferred to the watch after they have started. Calls made on the phone stay on the phone unless I specifically send them to the watch. Are you sure you don't have the watch set to act as a wireless headset full time?

I dunno if this is your problem but I had a problem one time with some phone where the button you push to transfer the call to blue tooth was always on. Every time I made a call I had to take the phone off Bluetooth. I don't have my note 3 yet so can't tell you how to do it but in the phone app look for the headset button. On my note 2 it is right the on the main screen during a call

Are you guys using a Note 3? The problem you are describing happens with my S4 when it's paired to the Gear but never happens paired to the Note 3.
I think that's what it's supposed to be because mine goes thru the Gear as well. Still fiddling with my phone's settings... but just hit the green-lit Headset icon then it's good to go.
When I get a call, both the Note 3 and the Gear show an incoming call. It is up to me to swipe on the Gear or the Note to answer the call and continue the call on whichever one I swiped to accept the call.

If I initiate my call from the phone, it stays on the phone.
If I initiate my call from the watch, it stays on the watch until I transfer.
The same thing is true about receiving the call. It's working as expected.

Same problem with S4. All the time, when i start call from phone i have to push headset button off. Till now i did not find any settings in phone to change it.
... Oh, and it's an S4 not a Note 3, FWIW...
how should be the game if you have a bluetooth headset/ car bluetooth either doing a call or receiving one?

Hi, I'm considering on buying galaxy gear
So what if I pair galaxy gear and bluetooth headset simultaneously on Note3
If I initiate my call from phone, Can I talk on bluetooth headset right away or do I have to do something on gear first?
and if I have incoming call, Can I push the answer button on my bluetooth headset and have a conversation or do I have to answer from the gear and transfer to my bluetooth headset?
Really need to know these information before deciding whether to purchase or not.
Many Thanks in advance

Bluetooth/Phone Call Issues, Anyone?

Has anyone else been unable to make phone calls after connecting to your vehicle's bluetooth? Most of the time, I can make phone calls without issue. Sometimes, I can't even hear the call ring when I'm connected to bluetooth. Occasionally, when I turn my vehicle off, the call goes silent instead of transferring to the earpiece on the phone. The only way I can fix the issue is rebooting the phone. This has become increasingly frustrating for me, since the issue is so inconsistent.
I'm running the stock ROM, rooted and un-encrypted.
Thanks!
Same here
I'm having the exact same problem you are having with my Ford Touch Sync, Bluetooth has work maybe once. At other times only the music over bluetooth has work. But was unable to make hands free calling! I also made my ford touch sync a trusted device, and the problem with connection still continues! Hope someone could provide some suggestions
Stock rooted- TWRP- encryption removed
I am having issues also. Just today, my phone shows I am connected to my Pioneer Navi head unit, and the Pioneer shows connected to my phone. I proceed to make a call. The audio on my radio mutes as it should, and nothing. No ringing, no busy signal nothing. so i hang up and try three more times. on that third retry, i heard the other party faintly, realizing that even though my radio muted and shows BT connected, the call went through the ear speaker on the phone. When I hung up the phone, my radio unmuted.
Last week, I was having issues where i couldnt hear any rings or busy signals. It would be silent for 20 seconds or so, then i hear the other party say "hello".
I honestly thought it was my head unit, since it is about 4 years old. But now I see others with similar issues on other brand bluetooth systems in their cars.

I just got my N6 today and I'm having trouble with My Ford Touch as well. I can get it to pair and play music, but it won't "connect" to my phone. It's odd because my N5 works fine with it. I would assume the N6 wouldn't be different.
We probably have to wait for an update from Ford, which will probably take months...
EDIT: Well I decided to try it again. I deleted the Nexus 6 entry as well as the Nexus 5 entry. Went through the pairing process again and it worked as intended. Not sure what happened the first time.
I ran into the same problem as others where my N5 worked flawlessly with my Ford Sync in my fusion, but the N6 is terrible.
I love the phone, but this is really annoying. I get into the car and sometimes it connects immediately, other times I have to turn off and back on the bluetooth about 3 times for it to finally connect. Very weird. Ford offers an upgrade to my Sync system, but wants $50 to do the upgrade. Pass.
I might try what the other person did and delete all entries for phones and pair it again. Unfortunately, the weather is pretty bad outside, so it might need to wait a short bit.
Has anyone else had luck re-pairing with their car and had reliable connections?
I use Ford Sync.

I use Ford Sync, and everything works as expected. I am Stock and unrooted. I guess it would come down to what version of Sync. Mine is from 2012. No touch screen. I also delete all other entries on the system and start from scratch making sure that the N6 is the main device.
If I can wake up the screen on my own, outgoing calls work fine

I have a Nexus 6 running Benzo ROM (5.1.1) and I have a GPS Nuvi 3580 bluetooth-enabled which I want to use to make calls while driving. I have added this device to my trusted devices so my phone unlocks as soon as it connected to it.
If my phone screen is on, then I'm able to call anyone from the bluetooth device, no issues. But as soon as my screen goes off, I can't make calls and when I switch on the screen on my own, I see a message "Process system isn't responding. Wait or close?"
Irrespective of what I select on this message, the call goes through. But it totally defeats the purpose of handsfree bluetooth mode. Is there something that is not allowing the bluetooth device to wake my phone up.
Also when I receive an incoming call, I see the notification on my GPS but I can't receive the call in one go. It takes multiple calls for it go through. I have also noticed that my bluetooth device keeps disconnecting and connecting without any change on either the phone or the GPS side.

Since I last made that post you quoted, i purchased and installed a 2015 model of the Pioneer AVIC-8100NEX. It has Android Auto, but can be used with the regular Pioneer UI also. I have had no issues anymore with this new radio. Maybe the BT protocol in the radio is newer? Im not that tech savvy to know. But the 2015 radio had no issues with BT calls anymore, on Pioneer's UI or Android Auto's UI.

Call notification on Urbane 2

Just got the watch and apart from the belt I really like it. The one thing that I can't get it to do is to show notification when someone is calling my phone... it simply doesn't do anything. Everything else works perfectly (gmail, whatsapp notifications etc). No custom image or anything - just updated OTA after I powered it on. I don't know if call notifications worked before.
Any clues?
Thanks.

Under the bluetooth settings in the watch have you enabled 'play phone audio on watch'?
I only have the options to rename or unpair under LG 7993.

You may have to disable numbersync or the 'watch shares number with phone' option in order for the 'play audio on watch' option to appear in the bluetooth settings. On my watch it's under settings> cellular> advanced>'watch shares number with phone '. If I turn this off, then I see the audio option in the bluetooth settings. There was a thread about this in the AC forums. Maybe it will help..... http://forums.androidcentral.com/showthread.php?t=664344
Both call and text are off in watch shares number with phone. But this setting in bluetooth would not make all audio from the phone go through the watch just like a bluetooth headset? Doesn't sound good - forget the pun

It doesn't make every sound go through the watch but it does need to be enabled for calls to ring through the watch. No luck with the option appearing? No way to disable numbering? (If it's enabled) The linked thread didn't help?
This is the way mine looks.....
Hah! Found it under settings - bluetooth. I was looking under cellular.

Hello,
I was searching for this options also, with setups in this thread - now my watch see when somebody is calling, but when I answer it sound is directed to the watch... also it disconnects my other bluetooth headphone device... any other way so that LG will notify about call connection and just that?
Thanks for reply...
When I enable 'play phone audio on watch' my car bluetooth is not able to connect to the phone and bluetooth in-ear handsfree has the same problem. Looking at the BT icon on the phone it seems that the watch is acting as a hands-free and the phone does not allow to connect more of them. But the choice between having call notification on the watch and having car handsfree working is a hard one. Anyway able to have both of them simultaneously?

If you place a SIM card in the watch, then it is possible. Of course, the SIM card in the watch must have the same number as the one in your phone. Please note that not a provider offer this so-called MultiSIM option.
Thank you for the explanation. Is 'play phone audio on watch' working the same on Wear 1.5? I'm using AW2.0 and I haven't tried it on original firmware before upgrade.
Small update: on AW2.0 DP4 call notification works even without setting 'play phone audio on watch', active BT connection is enough. So it works and does not collide with hands-free.
Its pity that there is no way to pair AW 2.0 preview watch with iPhone
