bluetooth power/audio connect - G1 General

this probably shows my complete lack of understanding of bluetooth, but....
would it be possible to create a bluetooth power up and audio connect app/mod
so you could connect to your car for instance, and your device would be able to charge its battery and connect your device's audio to your car, all while preserving the bluetooth ability to talk/listen if you made/receive a call?
please don't laugh if this is utterly impossible, just disabuse me of the notion

it is possible to wirelessly charge devices, but bluetooth is not designet for that, so it is practically impossibly.

Don't know if this is what you need, but I'm actually able to connect the phone to a USB on my car for charging, while using bluetooth to listen to music from the phone in my car's speakers AND beign able to answer a call or make one... this is no problem for android to manage... not to wirelessly charge the phone, but with an USB or an adapter to the cars electric output....
This works for ou?

hehehe as wise people say: "The only stupid question is the one that no one asks"... I prefer to ask something I think is very stupid and beign flamed for that, that keep the question and never know if it was actually a stupid question... I've been flamed a lot of times in forums for "stupid questions", but I've made some that actually turns into good threads with time!

yeah, thats pretty good, so far i've only used the bluetooth for calls
have a dual adapter for charging and audio, usually just use that, but was in a rental the other day, and used the bluetooth...pretty awesome, so it got me to thinking
anyway, thanks for the input
so how does the audio (other than phone calls) work on the bluetooth, i couldnt see any options for that when i was using it

Pairing with a car

Does anyone knows how good is Galaxy S in pairing with a car?
Be sure to take them from opposite sexes - e.g. if your car is female, get a male phone. Otherwise they'll be having a gay connection and no children.

Please bring a better explanation how one pairs a phone to a car. Will be happy to learn something new.
Hmmm, meanwhile.... I have successfully paired mine with the car, a BMW 3 series. Connected seamlessly, can access the address book through the car and initiate calls. All seems to work.

Car audio or handsfree operation.
Don't you have cars over there that handle BT communications?

Using an android device as a blutetooth "headset"

Hi!
I have a question regarding android devices in general. The main question is if this idea is possible with the right app or if you need special hardware?
I want to develop an app that let's you use any android device as a bluetooth headset connected to a cellphone. The setup is primarily for a car installation but other uses are also possible. This is how I want it to work:
I install an Android MID in my car and connect it to the stereo using a cable or bluetooth (depending on whats possible) to get the sound from the mid to the cars speakers. On this MID I'll have google maps and Spotify (or pandora) for navigation and music. So far this is nothing special, but I also want to be able to answer and make calls from a connected (bluetooth) phone (like on many dedicated gps).
By doing this I want the driver (any driver) to be able pair his/her phone with the MID. The calls to the connected phone will be displayed on the MID so their phones can stay in their pockets.
1. Is it possible to answer a telephone call to a cellphone by using an "answer" button on a bluetooth connected android device? Example "My Desire is connected by bluetooth to the android MID. When an external call is made to the Desire I can anser it from the MID".
2. If the answer to no 1 is Yes, is it at the same time possible to share internet via the same bluetooth connection?
Anyone have any idea if this is possible with the right app or if it need special hardware?
Sorry for bad english and long question..

With the right app, sure. Not sure if you can do it over bluetooth tho, maybe get a SIM for the MID and have your phone forward calls to it while your in the car. But i bet someone could figure out the bluetooth thing.
First of all, there is a problem connecting to the phone wifi due to it being an "ad -hoc" network. But the phone through the tablet is a great idea and some of us are working with such a prototype called "FLEX" it will be a small unlocked cell phone device that connects via BT to the tablet and handles the phone function for the tablet as you have described. Send me a pm if you would like more info.

I know he is talking about Bluetooth... but he also mentioned wanting to connect to 3g of the phone for data I believe.
I've actually had this idea as well! I don't know much about bluetooth programming, but there should be some way to spoof the phone bluetooth device ID or whatever to make the other device believe it's talking to a bt headset. I'm going to guess it might require root.
If you do decide to start coding something like this, let me know how i can help (ie, testing).
cheers,

Thanks for all the answers. I don't think I'm able to program this myself but was interested in if the concept was possible. If it is I sure hope someone creates it. I would pay good money for a solution like that and I think others would to.
If you come across more information regarding projects in this area please let me know.
Thanks again.

Yeah it is for the phone option...I connected it to a N95 first could that be the reason?? is there a way to reset?
you got to just search in the bluetooth option in settings right??
Still got the problem..
I think the issue is due to the lack of knowledge on how to "pair" the headset with the phone.
@OP, you have to press the power button and hold it until you see two arrows circulating.. then you will be able to pair with the phone.
Try reading the manual for better understanding

Take Phone Calls on PC?

I'm a long-time Android user. But one thing I'm missing, is being able to take phone calls with my pc headset. Some time ago, Apple made Continuity for iOS/OSX that provides this for iPhone. I thought to myself: "Hell yeah, then maybe that'll push development for this feature in Android as well".
So far, I've been using a Turtle Beach Z300 headset, which can connect to my phone via bluetooth while also being connected to my PC. However, this model is discontinued, and my headset just broke.
Before you suggest the likes of PushBullet and AirDroid: Remember that I want to use my pc headset. While these options allow me to accept the phone call via a notification on my PC, I still need to take off my headset, pick up my phone and hold it to my ear.
It's now been almost 2 years since Apple implemented this feature, so I kind of hoped/expected it to be on Android by now.
I am under the impression, that due to limitations in Android, it would have to be a bluetooth connection between my phone and pc. That is fine, and I think that is also how Apple's Continuity works. Or maybe there's another solution with root and/or xposed? Which I am fine with as well.

Thank you. It seems I forgot to mention I meant for Windows. I have seen a few different programs for OSX that can do it.

Connecting to USB audio in '13 Chevy Silverado

I'm currently using an old iPhone 6 pretty much as an iPod to play music through the USB interface in my truck, but would love to be able to use my Axon 7, as I'm a paid subscriber to Play Music, and would like to not have to juggle between two phones just to listen to music. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. Currently running RR 5.8.2
Did a quick search online, not particularly in this forum, but your truck might be mostly set up to "see" the iPhone's library or way of storing music, so hooking up your Axon 7 might not work the same way.
This thread mostly recommended connecting your phone via bluetooth or audio jack to bluetooth type connections.

Thanks, man. I've tried connecting through Bluetooth before though, and the truck's only set up to take calls through it, so the sound was horrible. I hate having to hook up through an auxiliary cable too, so I might not have any other option but to use the iPhone. Thank God for Cricket, their unlimited data plan, and tethering. Lol.
There is this, but it is very low-fidelity and not really good for anything but podcasts. I can't stream to the head unit in my car either, but I do have a 3.5 mm input. I'm looking into something like this.

I've wondered about those. Do you know if current track information is cast to the unit too?
I don't know for certain, but I very much doubt it. I'm in the process of sifting through the reviews on the different choices before deciding. I'll update the thread if I find anything useful.

Thanks, man. I may just end up heading to town and picking one up. Would still mean one less cable to get tangled up. Lol.
