Hey guys. Im having trouble with my plantronics explorer 390 bluetooth headset. I get the pairing ok, they both (headset and g1) recognize each other and when I call it says that its using/sending through the headset. Just that the sound still comes normally through the phone instead. The headset sounds like it starts the speaker in it, since low noise can be heard.
Tried putting restarting both bluetooth, headset and phone in all kinds of orders. Been googling and searching on xda plus in this biffmod thread, but all I find is how to get music through a mono headset and such. Otherwise unanswered questions.
This may be something just not working or already solved problem, but please share your help and info. Thanks!
----------------------------------------------
Seems like a lot of people have asked and are having/have been having the same problem since the beginning. And no solution that worked for them all seems to have been found. I thought people with similar problems could also join in the discussion and share.
SO lets share our configs/roms and headset calling problems, and see if we can figure anything out. Thanks!

I just purchased a bluetooth earpiece for my IIi in the hopes that I could stream music through it. APPARENTLY, the BT device only suppors the handsfree profile, which means all it's good for is to relay PHONE CALLS. I don't use the phone that often so it seems that I wasted my money. Anyone know a solution to get the phone to reroute music to the BT device if it's possible?
many possible solutions to your problem
There are many possible solutions to your problem and many software. Go to the following blog by Menneisyys (the expert!!) and look for a blog that tells you everything about redirecting audio to headsets.

You rock! I will definitely check that site out, thanks a bunch!
EDIT: Argh, I am an idiot. I tried a crapload of tweaks to get it to play on my earpiece when all it took...get this, was a push of the function button on the earpiece. The icon on screen immediately changed, and now I'm listening to Jingle Bell Rock at pretty decent quality on my headset. Thanks anyways peeps!
Great to be of help.. Merry Christmas... Now, don't you want listen to Jingle Bell Rock in Stereo instead of mono? It's also working fine now, just that you will have to find the correct hack for your phone.. It took me 6 months to get mine..
Guys, same problem here

Hello.
I tried to use mteor with many types of bluetooth stereo headset for listenning music, but every type I get
problem: music sounds 20-30 seconds and then interrups in 3-6 seconds.
After interrupt, music begins to play again and later it interrupts and so on. How I can solve this problem?
PS: I asked this question at htc support team. They answered me:
I presume yiu use an incompatible headset.
Sugest take a look at our webshop.

Does somebody have this problems too?
I use an HTC specific bluetooth stereo device and I have no problems like that at all.
It might be worthwhile updating your phone to the latest firmware.
I'm not aware of specific fixes related to bluetooth headsets, but it's lots cheaper than spending more $$$ on another headset.
Hi, i've searched everywhere for a rom or hack that supports bluetooth music streaming on g1 but none has that feature. Am i just being stupid or i just can't find it or something? Because i bought a bluetooth and i thought i could listen to music on my g1. Please help me find it
The Android Rom Database is your friend
none do but
there is a app u can download. got the market and serch root and if u skim the the results you should find it

I don't see anything in the market under "root" that enables A2DP....
me neither??????
A2DP
has been enabled sice 1.5... I've been using it with headphones and a stereo gateway for awhile now w/ no problems... unless I'm misunderstanding your question. If so, please explain.
Re-Asking Question for better understanding
Okay lemme re-ask the question with more specific way ahaha. Does anyone know any hack for Android Cupcake, T-Mobile G1, ROOTED, that can enable Bluetooth Streaming through a Bluetooth headset that isn't a stereo Bluetooth just a mono ear (the ones you use for talking and listening with one ear)?

I was using Bluetooth to stream Tunewiki music to my Jaybird stereo bluetooth headset on the latest JACMytouchSkiv2.0. I can't imagine why that build wouldn't work with a regular bluetooth headset like your asking.......
Nandroid backup your current build, wipe and flash this one and see what happens. Probably the only real way to find out.
hahaha........ my bad
I had a dumb moment sorry everyone. I miss read the initial question. So sorry I though he was asking for a Bluetooth to send data. Lol I feel so dumb. Sorry everyone my mistake
it's alrite lol but yea ima gonna try jacmytouchski took me long to download because my computer is soo slow ahaha
okay i tried the tunewiki with jacmytouchskiv.2.0 didn't work with my motorola h15 headset i don't what to do
I've only tried out Cyanogen's and Dude's builds and both support A2DP fine. Granted there were small issues with skipping and that but Cyanogen patched it so it works. Try out his latest STABLE build and give it a go.
i'm thinking this is a problem with bluetooth profiles. You'd need something configured to allow media streaming to the headset profile. If you go into your motorola h15 options in bluetooth settings you should see there is no option to stream media audio to the headset, thereby eliminating the possibility to do so.
You could go out and buy a new headset that supports A2DP (downmixed to mono), otherwise, anything short of some kind of profile hack will limit your possibilities.
here's a headset that does what you want: http://store.androidguys.com/productAccessories.asp?id=15456&t=d
Could be the headset yeah... I've only tested the bluetooth A2DP on two devices, one is a phillips stereo headset and another is a jabra something (mono) as its my dads.
I think though he was saying that he was getting zero music going to his headset though rather than only from the left/mono channel?
All the builds that support A2DP are in the ROM database so try some of those....

it supports a2dp ; )
This is my first, and only a minor, contribution to the forum; I've been a feeder up till now.
I bought a cheap bluetooth headset for my HD2 for use with my motorcycle satnav and also my HD2 - not that I want to take calls whilst I'm riding, but playing music would be a possibility. It was similar to this:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Bluetooth-V2-...e_Phones_Bluetooth_Acc_ET?hash=item3efab16de4
I paired it with my satnav and could hear voice commands and music as expected. I then paired it with my HD2 and could only get calls, no music playing!!!
I tried looking for settings on the HD2 but nothing made any difference so I decided to look in the registry. After a while exploring I eventually found:
HKLM/software/widcomm/BTconfig/devices/
There were three devices paired (HD2, satnav and my car) so next I had to work out which one. I found that if you look at the nickname for each one, it's decoded into english by the Reg Editor (I use CERegistryEditor). Using trial and error I found that changing the setting "Hideconnections" from "0" to "1" did the trick. I can now hear music through the headset!!!
Well chuffed with myself!!!
PS Perform a soft reset after changing it to lock it in otherwise it resets to "0" after a disconnect.
OOPS! because I was looking for Bluetooth stuff I posted this in the wrong area, sorry!!! Maybe a moderator can correct please?
How bizarre it works by default for me......well done on the find though
Thanks...
It doesnt work for me, im using samsung mono bluetooth. I've tried many methods like btaudio bttoggle.... any help, thanks
All I can suggest is that - like I did - compare settings with something that does work. Maybe because you have a mono headset (mine is stereo) it's not capable of receiving music?
Hi
I could play music and receive system sound in my Jabra mono bluetooth earpiece if, in HD2, I go bluetooth->advance->Audio and check "play system sounds on remote hands-free device". However, after a phone call, the music and sound will be routed back to the phone speaker, though the earpiece is still connected (you can still make/receive phone calls through the earpiece).
The music and sound can only be routed to the earpiece again after a soft reset.
The other observation is that, if there is pause in between music or sound for a period of about 12 to 15 seconds, the HD2 will "suspend" the bluetooth transmission (beep in the earpiece) and resuming the music will cause the bluetooth transmission to be re-established (beep sound in earpiece). This is causing skipping of the first 1 to 2 second of the music / sound.
Have installed BTaudio V1.0. It is working on my HD2 and will keep the transmission constant and no skipping problem.
However, also needing soft reset after phone call.
Does any one has similar experience ? Is this earpiece/ head set related of is this HD2 related issue ?
No one has simialr experience ? Is there a thread on bluetooth related registry tweaks, I have been searching for it but don't seems to be able to find one. Any help will be appreciated.

I don't have that reg key at all! I have a dutch hd2 running stock 1.66. When I try to connect to a parrot party bluetooth stereo box this (most of the time) doesn't work. Once or twice I established a working connection but after trying multiple times with no luck I decided to find a fix for my problem. Now I try to edit my reg with this and it's not there!?
i paired the hd2 with the car kit parrot ck3100... leaving apart that it doesn't connect always... although i have checked in settings to play all phone sounds through BT it doesn't...
i think it's a BT problem of the hd2, or maybe all WM phones... 'cause ițve had issues like this before...
P.S. once it played the music thorugh the car kit... just like this...
Hello all
I recently put 4.2.11.1 on my G1. Now when I pair my headset with the phone. The audio is still transfered though my phone. Is this a known issue? is there a fix?
Tech Specs
Handset: G1 w/Cyanogen 4.2.11.1
Headset: Samsung WEP470
The headset worked fine with stock 1.6
The headset appears to pair fine, even verified the bluetooth 'button' is selected while in a call. Still audio goes through the handset and not the headset.
This really is my only issue I love cyanogen so far and hope that the Nexus One is cracked fairly soon after release.
I have the exact same issue with a parrot ck2100-bluetooth hansfree, also running latest cyanogen
I've had this issue and other Bluetooth audio problems under the last several CM releases (See http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=819). When audio fails to go through the headset as you describe, turning the headset off and then on again often fixes it. If that doesn't help, then turning the headset off, toggling Bluetooth off and then on, and then turning on the headset usually works.
hrmm, hope this can get fixed I may have to abandon Cyanogen. I have to field call via bluetooth when I work from home.
usually this happens once a week for my bluetooth if i keep toggling BT on and off several times (usually do it if i forget my BT headset). easy fix. not a serious problem with me.
like the person above said: just turn toggle BT off then on, it should connect fine. if not, what i do is go through the settings and unpair them and pair, it should connect to the phone's audio. rinse and repeat.
not a serious bug that should keep anyone away from a certain rom... especially Cyans
Yall in the wrong forum ppl
If its an issue concerning Cy's rom go in his thread n follow the link to submite the issue.
If u trying to solve the problem go in Q&A and ask there or CY's thread.
This has nothing to do with development.
moved to Q&A
I am also having this issue.
I am having a parot c3100 and it pairs fine. But the sound is send to my phone instead of over my car audio system.
I tried bluetooth+headphone fix, but that doesn't help either.
It looks like every cyanogen (based) rom does have this issue ....
Does anybody have other ideas to get it fixed ?
