[Q] FM Radio app with Bluetooth support - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
Looking for a FM Radio, what will let listen with stereo Bluetooth headset. Of course Samsung Galaxy S will need the 3.5 mm cable plugged in to radio work, but this stock radio version will not let you listen it from BT headset.
I wasted time searching from Android Market. Most of hits was streamers or players etc. Not simple FM Radio and a button: turn on Bluetooth.
Help me find a one or say that you can hack stock radio or do your own version. I start waiting and trust your support.

Not sure if you'll have much luck with that one.
Alternatively, have you tried something like BTmono? Theoretically it routes all audio from the phone to the bluetooth headset, although I'm not sure how it will cope with the stereo (2 ear pieces?).

BTMono tested - feedback
Thanx for your hint! Tested BTMono app. It did something, but the voice was only signal noise or just silent.
I tryed different way: starting app, starting BTMono, other way around, connecting BT after and before, and booting..
But I noticed just now that my WLAN (Wi-Fi as you call it wrong) was all the time on.
I do not know if the same chip work with FM Radio and Bluetooth and cannot work with both mode in same time. Please answer me, so that I stop living in wonderland with this problem, if so.
Maybe this BTMono was from the first wrong app for me, becouse there in description was talking about Skype using or after call answering. My Skype works fine with my BT-headset and nothing problems to answer phone calls and music continue playing after call. Only problem is I cannot listen FM Radio..
I was stupid and didn't tell my devices:
Samsung Galasy S (Gingerbread 2.3.3, stock firmware)
Nokia Bluetooth Stereo Headset BH-505 (v2.1 + EDR with HFP/HSP/A2DP/AVRCP)

Do you mean that while i'm using the BT connected to GPS receiver and navigating... all the sudden a call came in... i can use the BT headset to answer the call... and the GPS will still able to track and navigating?

Thats right - at least with the sony headset and tomtom set I use. Both work well all the time
Here it works fine a Logitech bluetooth stereo headset with mic and TomTom with a keomo 16 ch gps receiver, when your call is ended it activates the mediaplayer by itself, only sh*ty thing is that the logitech headset so now and then isnt receiving 100% , but its a almost perfect combination.....
Mine works fine, either with the Moto HS820 or the A2DP Jabras. However I wouldn't ever recommend using A2DP phones whilst driving - it cab be dangerous.
Your normal one-ear devices don't tend to stop you from hearing external noises, which can be essential for safety whilst driving.
that's true... having a2dp headphone in the car is dangerous... but if it's using the normal headset with the GPS that will be great!!!!
since in spain it is forbidden to use headsets while driving, either a2dp or calls, i use a parrot mk6100 w a2dp.
when using the a2dp thru my car stereo i can connect my gps bt antenna.
when the call comes everything works fine.
but, it gets some time to go back after the call (navigator + a2dp). and it is not that smooth. it seems like that is pushing too hard to the limits of the niki.
i read the answer is to restart the conection w the a2dp.
btw, i dont have installed the voices in the navigator so the navigator doesnt interfere w the a2dp.
i can keep trying if you have some other issues.

bluetoouth GPs antenna issue
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I tried the antenna with another pda, it is working well. all tests were done with success. I don't understand whynot with the niki.
I did a complementary test, I tried the niki with another gps antenna and it is working well too.
I conclud about a compability issue between my antenna and the niki. maybe due to the bluetooth version.
is it existing a .cab to update the bluetooth driver?
thank you.
not found yet
but keep posting, i am interested too.
any news?
after to have tried many rom and radio version, i finished to buy a new antenna bluetouth v2.
the newone is working. i will sale the oldone to someboday having older phone.
I use a gear4 blueye (can get one for about £20ish on ebay including postage) at the same time as using gps (a holux gpslim 240 with tomtom) in the car.
Plug it into the car stereo and can now listen to ipod music, change tracks, volume & pause+play the ipod safely.
And also make calls by tapping the button and using phone's voice dial, this further pauses any music I'm listening to whilst in call and resumes at the end of the call. It really is a super little device!
ps. if people are having any interface issues: slow hanging up etc.. after calls, then it's worth disabling whatever phone skin you have using 'Advanced Configuration'. The default skin plays much nicer with bluetooth.

bluetooth headset: music + calls + gps indications

Hello dears, I get a kaiser and now I'm looking for a BT headset, my problem is I can't find wich special feature (if any) need the BT headset have to choice one and buy it with confidense.
I want to mount it to a motorbike, and I want to be able to receive in the BT headset music + calls + gps voice indications. Investigating some time I found that this can be possible with a software like BTToggle or VoiceRoute or so, to route all the sound of the HTC to the BT headset.
I hope this is true, but now I can't found if we need look some special feature or especifications in the BT HEADSETS available here in the market, and I have not the opportunity of test one and others.
Can someone tell me wich compatibility need I look for in a BT HEADSET for the HTC TYTN II and the custom explained needs above ?
Thank you very much! greetings from Argentina!

i believe u need a bluetooth stereo headset for it to pass music/system sounds through (I bought a samsung h350 for 4.99 and found out it cant do that ). Microsoft Voice commander works nice, it announces texts, calls, reminders, etc.
The Jabra 8040 is both a phone and music/audio Blue Tooth. They aren't too expensive. I am unsure if it will interupt the music for voice navigation prompts. Someone running one would have to let you know. I do know it interupts music for calls.
hi, there is this program ( i cant remember the name), but it allows you to stream all sounds from your phone to your headset, regardless of what kind of bluetooth headset you have. does anyone know what program it is?

Tomtom voice in the BT radio handfree

I've in my car a radio with BT handfree.
Diamond work perfect with him but only for calling.
The connection is forever active but if i start tomtom the voice of this is in the phone and not in the radio.
If i receive a call tomtom don't speak but i can talk using the radio handfree.
I want listen the tomtom not in the phone ! I want listen it in the radio handfree BT.
Is't possible ?
With a nokia ck-7W handsfree-kit it ist the same problem. Use google for "Bluetooth Audio Router", it is a nice small Tool to get all sounds including the tomtom-voice on a bluetooth headset oder handsfree-kit.
I buy it on pocketland.de for ca. 6€ (~9$).
Meik
Try Diamond Tweak 0.5, there is an option under Bluetooth setting to use Audio Gateway or something like that think thats pushes the sound over BT. Haven't tested myself either but worth ago instead of buying some crappy accessory
I had the same problem. The problem is that most BT handsets only use limited BT profiles. The TD uses A2DP for most sounds, which is not supported by many handsets.
The answer I found was BTmusic, a little app that works fine. I now have TT directions and warnings coming over my audio system automatically.
BT music ? Sure ?

Yep ... as I say it works for me and I can get TT's directions and warnings fine using my Parrot BT handsfree phone kit.

Reroute sound to bluetooth mic?

So, I've been trying to use my BT headset and a voice recorder but Diamonds seems to use only its internal microphone and not BT's one. Jabra BT 3030 (dogtag) is the device I'm using. There are wireless stereo and handsfree profiles in BT settings which are both checked.
Why I can't record my voice with Jabra? Is there a software way to make it use Jabra's microphone?
Apart from this everything else (calls and streaming music) works fine.
No ideas? Anybody? I sent the problem to Jabra/HTC support but didn't get nothing concrete as an answer.
I can't believe that bluetooth device's microphone can't be used for recording?
The same thing worked on Symbian Nokia device I used before...
The answer...

I tried it to make it possible to talk with voiceclips in the live messenger, trough the headset, works perfectly. Axel

Blutooth and Radio. HELP!!

I am the happy owner of a HTC Topaz.
I ride a motorbike, and have recently bought a bluetooth crash helmet with built in speakers / mic which works a treat for answering and making calls and also for listening to TomTom navigation instructions from my HTC Topaz.
However, I have yet found a solution to allow me to listen to the built in radio via bluetooth. Because HTC requires the plug-in headset to act as an antena the radio doesnt work without it.
However when I plug in the headset, i get instant radio reception but then the sound is routed to the plug-in headset , rather thean the bluetooth speakers.
My logic tells me that there must be some way to use the plug in headset as ONLY an antena allowing the sound to be routed by deafault to the bluetooth headset. Surely this is software driven?
I am not a software Guru, but keen to learn and frustrated that there doesnt seem to be a yet obvious solution to this problem.
Any help would be appreciated.
