I have my G2 paired to my car for cell calls but can't get Pandora to play thru it. Anyone have success?
You didn't tell us specifics. What car do you drive? Is the stereo stock or aftermarket? What is the Make and Model of the stereo? You also have to make sure the stereo supports the Bluetooth Profile A2DP. Also have you tried this on a Bluetooth Headset? I have this phone but I don't have a Bluetooth headset so I'm not sure if it supports the Bluetooth Stereo Audio Profile. Provide us more info so someone can chime in and answer.
Sorry...its a 2005 BMW 645ci. Its the stock radio and has an intergrated bluetooth that allows the G2 to sync for calls. Shows address book and all on the screen. Works quite well.
I am not sure if it supports A2DP profile and have not used it on a bluetooth headset.
Anyone who if the G2 is a A2DP phone? Ill also check on the bmw forum to see if my car is too.

I have an Imate JasJar and a KJam. I love both of them especially since I was able to install A2DP on both devices thanks to the wonderful people here. One of the things I love is being able to sit and watch my home theater with wireless headphones thanks to my ITech bluetooth dongle and my ITech Clip S35. The phone rings and my headset mutes the volume, I take the call, and the volume automatically comes back up. Life is good. I just bought the Nokia 12w bluetooth headset. FM radio, A2DP, AVRCP and headset profiles. A beautiful design with a caller ID window no less. You would think I would be in heaven right? But Nokia crippled this great little accessory. You can only get the non-headset profiles if it comes from the same device that is delivering the headset profile. I am able to connect to my PC, pair it and connect to an AV profile, but no sound ever comes out. Now before I got this headset I had a Diva Gem MP3 player. This thing is great. FM, MP3 player, voice recorder, bluetooth headset profile AND it even took SD cards for file and MP3 usage. I have had a 2GB card in it and really enjoyed it. But the allure of being able to listen to music from my Universal or watch a movie in the waiting room and listen wirelessly was too attractive.
Here is my challenge:
1. Is there anybody here who can add the A2DP profile and the AVRCP profile to the Diva Gem?
OR
2. Is there somebody who can break the limitation on the Nokia 12W that precludes it from being able to accept an A2DP proile and use an AVRCP profile from a "foriegn" device?
I am willing to bet that there are others who would like to be able to do this with the 12W.
Thanks for any advice.

Put your headset in pairing mode. Go to the Comm Manager on the KJam. Hit MENU on the bottom right hand side. Choose BLUETOOTH SETTINGS. Choose DEVICES. Now choose NEW PARTERSHIP. Both devices should discover each other and you should be prompted for the security code. Most devices use "0000".
Hi guys,
Basically i want to have a handsfree bluetooth to talk on the phone that also works as a Wireless Stereo.
Do they exist?
Little help would be appreciated.
yes they do; i'm not sure about other brands but i use an i-tech clip stereo headset that acts as handsfree and wireless headphones. it has 2 earphones; the other can be unplugged when you want to use it simply as handsfree.

You paired them right?
--M
yup, all paired, i useit normally for calls and everything, but i wanted to c if i could play music and use the cars speaker system as "bluetooth headset" and play my music =D
I don't have a BT stereo headset, so I dunno if I'm talking out of my ass here, but I wonder if this would work. Its what I use to listen to podcasts on my BT handsfree.
hmm, strange, wen i turn on the app, no sound comes from the car, turn it off and the sound is normal from speakers of the phone =S
need playing around with?
it may be possible that the built in BT in the lexus might not support it!

The Lexus doesn't use A2DP (because it's NOT a stereo headset) but the standard headset mode.
Please DO read / follow my articles, ALL of them are cross-posted to the General forum here. In there, I've also posted a full article on all these questions. Read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=281977 and look for the Wizard-specific comments there.
Not sure if this is the correct place to post this
I have just upgraded from a kaiser to the HD2. I have a Bury take and talk car kit installed so have replace the Kaiser cradle with the Universal Bluetooth cradle. The phone pairs ok, the volume is low over the car speakers but this was the same for the kaiser and I have found that bury sell an amplifier to boost the volume. So far so good.
My question now is is there any way for routing music and gps instructions over the bluetooth connection. Registry hack, app or whatever. I cant see that it cant be done. I have read bits on other threads / forums about routing to Bluetooth headsets, and im thinking this is similar.
Anyone got any good ideas? I havent installed or messed with much yet so am willing to try stuff and hard reset if required
If the carkit doubles as a bluetooth headset and no more, it will only support the protocol which enables you to place calls with the carkit, and route the audio and mic for the call over bluetooth. If you want an audio connection, be sure your carkit allows for an A2DP connection - then you will get music and possibly also voice streams via bluetooth out of your car speakers.
Hi guys!
So, the Xperia support A2DP just fine, also in combination with my car stereo (a Pioneer Avic D3BT set). However, I find that when I start playing audio (doesn't matter if this is music or satnav guidance) before I start the car (and hence the stereo set), not only will the audio not be re-routed to the stereo, but the phone also fails to connect with the A2DP part. Phone audio (headset profile) is connected OK, though.
Is this normal behaviour/has anyone seen the same behaviour?
Oh, and if anyone has a way of transferring contact to the phonebook of the car, I'd be delighted to hear about it. For me, it will immediately disconnect if I even attempt to transfer a phonebook item.
Hey Stampot. I have a Pioneer BROWSE system(BTB200) and I have the same problem. I find if I activate the phone bt after the car is on, A2DP connects fine. But if I do it the other way around,I only get phone audio. To fix I either have to disable/enable the phone bt or (the faster way) toggle the a2dp option. I'm hoping a de/firmware upgrades fixes the prob.

Its works better when u start the car first and that should not be a problem, shouldn't????
Its the same with every Bluetooth Headset. U can do it with the other way, but u must choose the Audioconnection in the Bluetoothsettings manually.
