I cannot find a way (setting, app, thread, etc.) to be able to select where the app's audio (ie Navigation) ouputs too when connected to car bluetooth. Like most car stereos, Bluetooth Audio is it's own input in my 09 TSX. Sometimes I want to be on XM and listening to turn-by-turn navigation through phone speaker while receiving calls via bluetooth. I hope I'm not being confusing.
Anything out there to select app's audio output?

I'm not aware of an app to do app-specific routing but you can go go Bluetooth in the Settings menu, then to your paired device settings screen and deselect Media Audio. Then the phone will only send calls to your paired device. Of course you can do the reverse as well.

You must have a rooted phone to edit /system/etc/bluetooth/audio.conf
Use ADB or Root Explorer to edit this file.

When connecting to car audio system I now have bluetooth streaming music from phone to car speakers and the HFP (Hands Free Profile) working. Receiving a call when listening to streaming is also working as the music mutes and the call is preferred.
Before I could only connect HFP and from time to time got a message saying phone must be re-connected.
I made the following changes to /system/etc/bluetooth/audio.conf
[General]
Enable=Sink,Control,Headset,Gateway,Source
#Disable=
AutoConnect=true
[Headset]
HFP=true
MaxConnections=3
Reboot the phone after saving audio.conf, enabled Bluetooth and under Options for my car audio I have two profiles ticked:
Media [v]
Phone [v]
-
My SGS GT-I9000
PDA: XWJS8
PHONE: XXJQ1
KERNEL: Speedmod-k13e-500hz
does this add a "media audio" profile to the galaxy bluetooth?
I have a Parrot bluetooth in my car and a Galaxy S. On the profile for the parrot in the Galaxy S I do NOT have an option "use for media audio", only "use for phone audio".
I have not been able to stream books (I use Ambling book player) to the parrot except when using the app called SuperMonoFroyo but it has to be restarted after every call placed or received.
I'd like to get the "use for media audio" profile if possible.
So is the mod to /system/etc/bluetooth/audio.conf a solution to my problem? Or is there some other way to solve this I haven't found.
Thanks

This mod wasn't needed on Gingerbread. XWJVH stock audio.conf connect phone & media just fine.
Are you sure Parrot support A2DP?
Older C-F kernels also had problem with bluetooth but it is fixed on recent version.

Hey O-T,
I updated my audio.conf to the conf that you specified, but I still do not see the additional Phone audio profile under the options of my BT connected speakers. My device is a galaxy S2 T989. Do you know if this conf enables phone audio via A2DP for all the devices or is it just for GT-I9000?
Thanks.
I have updated to GB 2.3 and this problem to connect bt a2dp is gone.

Hi
easy solved in Google Play
Hello, dears
just head to Google Play and ask for : BTHeadSet, BTMono, BtMusic, Audio Router, Super Froyo Mono and other alike
I've been using BTHeadSet in my car and goes like if I were receiving a phone call, so all songs, audio and etc goes to the car speakers
See you around
Finally got bluetooth in my car stereo and reviewed some threads prior to posting, but not sure anyone asked / answered the question I have. I'm basically wondering how people are using their bluetooth stereo's. From what I can tell so far I have 2 options.
1. Phone pairs, i listen to my car stereo and if a phone call comes in the stereo picks up the call if i say, and upon completion back to my car stereo
2. Phone pairs, put the car into BT Audio mode and stream audio from my phone including phone calls.
The problem is, i'm looking for a way to combine both. For example I'd like to be able to listen to my car stereo, and if i get a notification i hear it over the radio, not just phone calls. I haven't tried yet, but i'm guessing the nav will be the same way, if i'm listening to the stereo and running nav on my phone i will get no turn by turn like i would if i was listening to music on my phone and running nav.
Is there a way to do this? Am I missing something? I have the Sony Xplōd™ MEX-BT3900U. Is this a limitation of my stereo, or just not how most people use their bluetooth?
I just ordered a replacement radio as well with BT support. I'd be curious wth what other people have to say with experience as well.
I use this all the time.
Both options will work provided the head unit you bought supports media streaming.
Your phone will connect both phone and media over Bluetooth. You listen to your media and if a call comes in you can take it while the media is paused. Media will resume after call completed.
Notifications and navigation will pause and resume media as needed.

I've found the quality of the audio over bluetooth to be very degraded. Have a rear AUX 1/8th port and run a cable to mount, Then use BT headset for all if need be, but have Pandora playing Excision & Downlink radio the entire time
I have my Defy (red lens, CM9) connected to my bluetooth carkit (Skoda/VW RNS510/Columbus), when it's connected it outputs the sound of the navigation (iGO Primo2) to the bluetooth. Is it possible to make it play the sound trough the speaker of the phone?
I like to listen to the FM-radio when navigating and the RNS510 is so slow changing audio source that I don't hear any of the navigation instructions + it doesn't switch back to the FM when the instructions are finished.
Hi,
I reported a related BUG here.
I had also issues in combination to the original motorola car cradle (had to rotate the car cradle 180° to prevent the magnet to activate car-mode).
I don't think it's due to CM9 or 10 because I had the same problem with CM7
For me it was working on CM7 and MS2Ginger.
How did you get iGO to put its sound on the cell's speaker instead of bluetooth or did it just do it like that?

Oh,... I meant my issue was working on CM7 and MS2Ginger... I am using Navigon together with Holo FM and the Radio APP suppresses the Navigon voice almost completely.
I think all "normal" audio gets automatically routed to headset or external speaker if connected. IGO must have an own build in switch to prevent it from using headset/ext-speaker. If it has none it should be impossible.
On Navigon there is an option weather sounds should been played over bluetooth (2 chanels possible). Unfortunately if it is switched of the sound doesn't play on the internal speaker either.
Sorry to mislead you with my former post....
I've been testing a bit more with iGO and sound going over the Bluetooth.
When my Defy is connected to the car and I then toggle the media option in de Bluetooth menu, it sends all navigation directions to the phone speaker but when I leave the car and get back in, it goes back over bluetooth, I then have to toggle the media option again (it doesn't matter if media is selected or deselected, the behaviour changes because off the toggle)
I solved it. There's an app that lets you route the sound to the speaker: SoundAbout
It lets you route mediasound to speaker. So bluetooth keeps handeling your calls, works great.
Please ask all questions in Q&A. Thread moved there.
I have a company car that has built in Bluetooth, but ONLY for a phone connection. Apparently, the car does not support A2DP for music, etc. Phone calls route to the car radio speakers perfectly. Even Skype calls will automatically (after pairing) route through the speakers. However, podcasts, music, youtube, etc. will NOT play through the speakers. Since there is obviously a "path" from the phone to the car speakers via bluetooth (at least for phone calls and things that "look like" phone calls [Skype, etc.], is there a way to "trick" the phone and/or reroute other audio to the speakers via bluetooth (i.e. make the phone "think" the sound is a phone call and route it as such)?
P.S I am NOT rooted.
Any ideas greatly appreciated.
Does the car have usb? Easier to route the audio through usb and the car shouldn't block the audio through that route and calls should still work

When I get in my car the phone connects to Bluetooth for calls media and contacts. Exactly what it's supposed to do. My question is does anybody know how to route notifications to play through the phone speaker and not Bluetooth.
Google Maps has a setting in it that routes audio through the phone speaker instead of my car's speaker via Bluetooth but every other notification doesn't play from the phone.
I want to be able to listen to my radio but still hear my notifications. And I know I can press the volume button and switch the output but that doesn't help me because sometimes I listen to Pandora and want the output through Bluetooth.

Have the same "problem"
Bump!
I'm interested in this as well. My car is "older" (2015) and has no Android Auto support, so customizing what goes to speaker and what goes via Bluetooth.
