So I'm write code that handles the MEDIA_BUTTON event, but I've run into little bit of a problem. On the nexus 7, I can't seem to get the event to trigger using a Bluetooth headset.
The logs only show:
07-26 19:32:05.736: I/Bluetooth HeadsetBase(638): Error processing <AT+CKPD=200>
I was wondering if anyone had any success using a Bluetooth earpiece which is not an A2DP profile.

I have a simple question. I have an MDA, and I have MC Voice Command installed. It reads me my next appointment as a reminder. Is there a way to make the MDA open an audio channel to my bluetooth headset and read the reminder in my headset?
There is a program available on this board if you search for it. It will open an audio channel and force ALL audio from the MDA to your headset. I initially used this for music, but have since added the stereo bluetooth profile and purchased a headset. It's a nice, small piece of software that seems to fit your purpose. I think it's call BT Toggle or something similar.
I have a Sprint 6900 Touch running the stock version of WM6.1. If I enable the Bluetooth audio gateway using acbToggleBT, to listen to music, the volume is low. Its also low when I enable Voice Command through the Bluetooth headset. If my wired stereo headset is plugged into the bottom of the phone and I enable the Bluetooth audio gateway using acbToggleBT then it sounds great. I have tried several things to figure out what is going on and have come to one possible solution.
I need an application that would force my phone into the headset profile. If I enable the Bluetooth gateway without a headset plugged in I believe the phone is in the hands-free profile and not the headset profile. I know I can do this manually by plug-in in the headset connector but can this be done via a program? I would like to have a program launch the headset profile then launch the Bluetooth audio gateway.

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.
Hello Everyone!
I got so many little issues I'll try to start with the easiest and see if we can get them sorted out.
To start, heres what I have as far as hardware.
Samsung Nexus S
Samsung Bluetooth Mono Headset model HM1100
PC is Linux Ubuntu w o/s 10.04LTS
ISSUE # 1
I can use my bluetooth headset to place/receive calls with my Nexus S, however, if I want to listen to MP3s or other applications like a scanner that use sound, I cannot hear a thing? Isn't this suppose to work as well? If so, how do I do it?
ISSUE # 2
I use Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I can pair my bluetooth headset with Ubuntu but when I want to listen to MP3s, make a sound recording or Skype it's impossible because there is so much STATIC. How would I correct this problem?
ISSUE # 3
The Nexus S is "Paired but not connected to" to my PC (eg Ubuntu). When I attempt to send a file from the PC to my Nexus S the file transfer always fails. What steps can I perform to find out why this is happening? I tried re-discovering and pairing but that did not work.
The Bluetooth app I use in Ubuntu is is found under System-->Preferences and simply called "Bluetooth". The applet that appears in the Ubuntu panel is called "Indicator Applet 0.3.7".
Background info:
I have tried to find the information to sort out these issues via Google but haven't found anything that could help me. In my search, I discovered this forum and figured why not post here and see if you folks could lend me a hand.
Thanks for allowing me to post and I look forward to any assistance you may be in the position to offer me.
Thank You,
Suomalainen
The headset you're using isn't a stereo Bluetooth headset so listening to music won't work i don't know about the skype situation but i assume it could be for the same reason
Try the free "btmono" app before buying the cheap "btmono-premium" app (from Market). It worked for me.

Thanks for that piece of info. I installed and now the show is rolling. Much appreciated! Thanks!!!!
for issue 2 and 3 you just need to have the correct type of apps that handles those sort of data / tranfers / music streaming
as well you need matching compatible software on the ubuntu machine
as for the sound detection, it only works with the phone mic, it wont work well with your bt headset, unless you take the bt headset off your ear and jam the bt headset right in front of the speaker to detect the tune it's playing
Change Key for bluetooth pairing on Nexus S using ICS
I try to connect a headset using key 0000 with Nexus S, the problem is that I don't have any option to change the key when try to pairing.
The phone give a random key ...
how can i change this?
Hello.
I have bought my new Galaxy S4 and I have some problems using it in my car.
My car is Audi A4 equipped with MMI 2G, vocal commands and bluetooth hands free.
If I connect my phone with my car, all is ok (calling and receiving calls, phonebook transfer and I can still use my car's vocal commands.
I am not able to use S-Voice Drive.
If I start car mode on the phone, s-drive automatically fire up when bluetooth connected but it still use my phone mic and speaker.
How can I solve? Someone has the same car/system?
My system does not support A2DP....
Thank you.
Chris
Are you sure your expectations are right? I have S4 and MMI 3G and S-Voice doesn't transfer to the car speakers. It didn't occur to me that it might/should, all I expected was hands-free function for phone calls and the ability to dial from the car's MMI interface system.
The Bluetooth profile in the pairing settings on the phone is "call audio" only. There is no "media audio" so I'm guessing the only function supported is to handle the phone audio.
Have you seen something suggesting that audio output other than calls should transfer via bluetooth to the car speakers?

No, nothing, but I would like to have it to the car speakers and mic.
I tried a different bluetooth mono router software but no luck.
I hope someone has solved this with some kind of thirdy party software...
I'm not a techie, but I am guessing that the functionality is limited by the bluetooth profiles supported by the paired devices. If Audi have loaded only the call audio in the MMI software then that is all the car can do.
It looks like you can get after-market A2DP hardware installations (this is a MMI 3G solution, for example). That might enable audio streaming from your phone via Bluetooth, but whether S-Voice would stream also I'm not sure. If I'm honest, I doubt it is possible.
I am experiencing same issue and weird thing is that if I connect IPhone 4S and run Google Navigation I hear navigation instructions in car's speakers but with Galaxy S4 I can't get it to work for navigation instructions.
