Hi,
I'm trying to play music through speakers that are connected to my computer.
my computer has build-in BT receiver.
1. I've paired my device to my computer (WIN7)
2. The device is being shown both on computer and on phone
3. in the bluetooth device list i see the computer as "PAIRED" device with an icon of 'Computer'
4. a long press on its name i have the only option of "Unpair".
Any idea how i can stream the music throughout the computer?, on the handset paired items i have an options menu where i can choose that music would be played on.
Open the device's controls in WIN7 and choose to use the PC to listen to audio from the phone. It's a "Connect" button. That's it.
No connect in menu
Thanks for the quick reply.
In the Win7->Control Panel->Hardware and Sound->Devices and Printers->
I have the "Galaxy S" device, when i right click it there is the following options:
"Modem Settings"
"Dial up networking"
"Create shortcut"
"Troubleshoot"
"Remove device"
"Properties"
the properties menu includes information regarding the driver.
I have no "Connect" option...maybe im searching in the wrong location?
Depends on your bluetooth stack. Default Windows 7 does not have a stack to stream audio to your computer. You need a Widcomm stack (which requires Broadcom chipset) or Bluesoleil (requires payment).
Bluesoleil stack is compatible with most bluetooth chipset including CSR (cambridge silicon radio), which usually don't come with any premium stack. You can try their trial software and you can enjoy the streaming up to 2MB.
You can get WIDCOMM here if you have a broadcom bluetooth chipset.

i hate the process to connect with my bluetooth headset
Comm Manager -> Settings ->
Bluetoth Settings -> Devices ->
klick -> set as wireless stereo
gives any app to do this with one klick or one button ???
I use a set of Logitech bluetooth headphones (made for the iPod). All I need to do to connect is to push the action (play/pause) button on the headphones and two seconds later I'm paired and connected (assuming the bluetooth on my Prophet is on). It may differ depending on what headphones you are using but I'm very glad I don't have to click through all those menus like you do.
Thats fine for headset devices with A2DP, but what about a device with no buttons of note, such as the motorola dc800.
I use multiple A2DP devices, and only plan to get more (headset, car, stereo). I dream of a utility which would make this process easier.
Surur
please !!! it´s so hard find a app to do this ???
help me please anyone !!!
I would like a way to do this too.
Hello everybody,
I just would like to hear some (technical) comments regarding making stereo bluetooth headset usage more convenient with a device like the HTC Universal.
My current situation is as follows:
The stereo bluetooth headset that I am using is http://www.itechdynamic.com/en/products_spec.asp?cid=2&pid=02040
The inconvenient problem I am encountering is the cumbersome method of going into "wireless-stereo/hands-free/headset" mode immediately after switching ON my headset.
The pairing between the device and the headset was not an issue, however one would think that once paired - there would be no need to go into the "Partnership Settings" again, and again, and again, etc...
So assuming that the Universal device has Bluetooth ALWAYS active, I switch ON my headset and the only think that works is the Multi-Function-Button on the headset that triggers the voice dialer / voice commander. Once the phone dialer is running I conveniently go into hands-free mode. This is fine and all, but quite useless when I am not using the phone dialer.
I mean, after switching ON the headset, and then I start to play an audio file - the headset should be the point of audio output, not Universal's speakers. This does not happen after switching ON the headset. To make this happen, I must do the follwing:
1. Switch ON the headset
2. On the Universal Device, go to Comm Manager and select the Settings tab
3. Choose Bluetooth Settings...
4. Select the Devices tab
5. Select the defined Partnership between the headset and the Universal device, in my case this selection is "i.Tech Clip S"
6. Under the "Select services to use from this device" we have:
a.) Hands Free
b.) Wireless Stereo
c.) Headset
All three are selected but in reality are not working (not yet anyway..)
7. Clicking the REFRESH button causes the services selected in point 6 above to change. Clicking the REFRESH button causes the Hands Free and Wireless Stereo services to be de-selected while the Headset service to remain selected.
8. Select the Hands Free and Wireless Stereo services and click on the Save button.
9. Now all is well!
So, the problem obviously is in point 6 where what the Universal device says is not actually what is reflected in reality.
But in order to work around the problem, I must do points 7 and 8. Since I wish to make an app that does the things mentioned in points 7 and 8 - I need to know what the REFRESH button actually does.
All I know so far is that the REFRESH button does not just elicit values from the registry. It does something that results in the registry values being written. This is where I would really appreciate your comments.

Hi,
Having found this cool software to drive my v1615 from my pc (http://www.raspberrysoftware.com/trueconnect.htm) I would like to be able to use the speakers/mic on the laptop for GSM phone calls.
I have an HP Pavillion running Vista and v1615
I thought maybe I could use bluetooth headset options (as this appears as a service on both handset and PC) but don't see how to do it
Any ideas on ANY way to achieve this?
On you pda, go to bluetooth setting, go to Devices tab, and then click on the computer you want to use as hand free and select set as Hand free.
You computer ad pda need to be paired first.
Working like a charm for me.
Good luck
I stream via A2DP to the computer in my car sometimes as well. Works nice.
I do this, but I can only hear the voice from the laptop. The input device is not recognzied as my microphone, but instead as the "bluetooth headset" and no voice input is detected there.
Any ideas?
You probably have to go in the input recording properties.
Double click the speaker icon in you system tray (bottom right icon) in the taskbar.
In the options menu of the Volume controller, select properties and in the mixer device, select the input you use for your microphone (usually you sound card name with input at the end, not the bluetooh one.), the Recording tick box should now be selected, and now click ok button.
Now you can select what input you want to use, select microphone and adjust volume.
You may also have to check the your bluetooth configuration on your laptop to allow this connection, but this should be ok as you can already hear sound on laptop speaker
I'm on Windows Vista. I can see "Headset Microphone" and "Microphone" (this one resembles my Realtek HD Audio mic). There is no way (that I have discovered so far) to make the Headset Microphone (whose device is called: "Bluetooth Hands-free Audio") take input from the Microphone.
The devices are paired and the headset option is enabled for the computer (and the computer has A2DP as a BT service for the device - no other autio options available) Have selected Set as hands-free against the pc on the handset. But still doesn't give me the option to Turn on hands-free when I'm on a call - any ideas?
Hello,
I have a bluetooth headset and I switch the connection constantly between my MP3, phone and laptop (for different reasons).
On my laptop I made a bind, so if I press M10 (I have a gamer keyboard) it auto-connects this headset.
On my MP3 I just have to press a button for 3 seconds and it connects the headset automatically.
On my Nexus One, I have to go to the settings then bluetooth Settings then select the headset.
So I want to make a simple widget that allows me to view all the known bluetooth devices (that have already been paired with the phone once) and be able with one touch to be connected with the chosen device.
Developing an application that needs bluetooth on android is simple but I can't find a way to say to my phone : "Connect to this device already paired but you handle the socket server etc..."
I don't want to right a socket server and handle the sounds being sent to the device... I just want to connect the headset to my phone and let the phone do the rest.
Is is possible ? Because on Android Dev website I didn't find any class, method etc... to do that.
Best regards,
rXp>!<
No answer means can't be done I guess ?
I successfully paired my AT&T Galaxy S4 to my 64-bit Win7 laptop using the "Add a Device" button under Start -> Devices and Printers.
Now, in Device Manager, I have three devices with a yellow bang that appear as "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" under "Other devices."
I have seen in other threads that I should manually update the driver for these devices to the Microsoft Standard Serial over Bluetooth link driver that is part of the Windows Mobile Device Center application.
I'm just a little skeptical... does the S4 really have three serial-over-bluetooth links? And if so, now I'm curious... what do these links represent?
I am also having the same issue. I just updated the BT stack on the Dell with the same result. Under the Device Functions: two of the list are Bluetooth Peripheral Device / Other devices
The rest in the list are:
Bluetooth A2DP Source
Bluetooth AV Remote Control Target
Bluetooth Handsfree Audio Gateway
Bluetooth Message Access Profile Server
Bluetooth OPP
Shoot me
I spent over an hour with Samsung support. I finally got them to provide the following:
Bluetooth® Profiles: A2DP, AVRCP, GAVDP, GOEP, HFP, HID, HSP, MAP, OBEX, OPP, PAN, PBAP, SPP; NFC; Wi-Fi®; Wi-Fi® Hotspot; MHL support.
"Some of the profiles are related to car stereos and headsets by which windows may not be detecting all the profiles." - This is what is erroring out in Windows.
She could not give me the specific ones but it is two of the underlining profiles listed. I have spent way too much time to get nowhere.
Has anyone made any progress with this? I attempted the "Standard Serial over Bluetooth link" driver, with no luck.
Broadcom
Hi,
I had troubles installing my S4 on windows 7 using windows drivers.
I uninstalled all Bluetooth software then cleared device driver build-up with USB Deview.
I then installed Broadcom Device Drivers, and re-paired my phone with only one S4 BT device not installed.
These are all the S4 BT devices I got installed okay:
Bluetooth Hands-free Audio
Bluetooth L2CAP Interface
Bluetooth Remote Control
GATT Protocol
GAP Protocol
Bluetooth Headset AG
Bluetooth Hands-free AG
Bluetooth AV Remote-Control Target
Bluetooth AV Source
Bluetooth Network Access
Bluetooth Personal Area Network User (PANU)
Bluetooth OPP
Bluetooth Message Access
I hope this helps
S4 BT FTP Working
Hi again,
I've found that I can get the last uninstalled BT service mentioned above installed by using Bluetooth File Transfer -- namely the FTP service.
With BT turned off, using the BFT Widget: I activated "Bluetooth File Receiving Service (OPP) Port 12" and then the "Bluetooth File Sharing Service (FTP) Port 30", and then I turned BT on and re-paired with Windows. All BT services found on my S4 were installed.
My S4 appeared in Windows Explorer as a system folder under My Computer--with full upload/download capabilities--just as if I had connected via USB cable, though only the internal memory was available, not the SD card.
I hope this helps more so
