So I've asked this before back when I had the Moment, but why can't I stream to BT on a non-A2DP device? No before answering the obvious, I experience the same things on the Epic that I did on the Moment where if I have music streaming, playing from the SD, etc and a call comes in, the music will automatically pause and I can take the call. Once I end the call, I the music will play for about a second or more through my BlueAnt Z9i BT and then it will revert back to the stock speaker on the phone itself. So what is preventing someone from taking advantage of that lapse of time where the music is coming through the BT and make it happen all the time? I'm sure there are COUNTLESS people who could use and benefit from this instead of buying a dedicated BT, I might be able to stream wireless from my phone to my car stereo (BT calls capable, but I cannot stream directly to it as an input), to my PC (which has BT), etc. Just throwing it out there since I've always wondered why we couldn't capitalize on the second or two and make it a normal operation. I tried to break this post into a couple of paragraphs, but the site wouldn't let me. Anyways, thanks all.
I would also be interested in this. I was able to do this with windows mobile so there's no doubt that it can be done on a non a2dp headset.
The fact that it happens, even for a second, tells me that something is delayed that is telling it to stop. Telling it to start might be in a whole different ballpark, but point is, it should be possible. I've got 3 different BT's floating around my house...one in the house sitting around on my desk, one that I always take with me in the car (gotta be safe, ya know ) and another I keep in the garage incase I get a call while I'm working on something and/or out mowing the lawn. I'd love to even be able to be following around the GF (shoot me now) while she's shopping...imaging how much better it would be to be able to play music or hear my games without people around me knowing the wiser. I don't want to have to buy and then wear a stereo headset.
App in the Marketplace called "BTSwitch" works on my devices. try out the lite version first theres a little audio flaw with the stereo music being converted to mono (i'm guessing) but then i'm an audiophile.

The only bt switch i see on the market is a widget to turn bluetooth on and off. Could you have been referring to a different app?

I'm trying this as well at the very moment. I only see one app with that name and I don't see anything referencing a lite version. My BT doesn't even like to connect while this app is installed, causing the normal BT settings to not even allow it to pair up. I had to remove the app and reboot the phone to get the BT to connect through the normal Menu > Wireless & Networks > Bluetooth Settings before it would connect again.
I know this may not be the best timing to bump this w/ all the Froyo excitement, but I'm sure myself and others would like to see this happen. I've still got my fingers crossed that maybe someone on the sidelines could help.
It's called Super Mono BT.....They have a Froyo addition as well as a "free" edition...Free addition is just a 5 day trial, after that it's 2.99. It works fine but it's not in stereo so it sounds like AM radio, LMAO. Worth a shot though just to try.
I was able to install the app, but it doesn't work for me...yet. The problem is that is requires Cynanogen Mod and I don't have that since I've (as of yesterday) flashed my phone back to stock DI18 while waiting for Sprint to send me an OTA notice to update to Froyo. I was WAY too buddy via the download available here, so I guess I wait to use this BT app. Thanks for the reply though, I look forward to being able to use it.
So I've been using all access and it's cool but I also listen to podcasts on my phone. When my phone connects to bluetooth on my car it'll usually start playing whatever I've been last listening too but I'd like an option to switch to the other media player (google play music <-> beyondpod) if I find that the phone is playing the wrong content. Is there an easy way to get this done? There doesn't seem to be a straight forward way through nfc task launcher and I'm totally inexperienced with tasker. Any ideas guys?
This may not be specific to my new LG G2, but I want to stream music from my XBox music service to my car. When I switch the car's mode into streaming, it starts up the basic Music app which won't work for me. Any ideas how to do that? Is Microsoft missing something for this?
I got a verizon S4 running GPE 5.0.1 rom by Danvdh. So i live in new york city and use the subway station everyday. So this issue i have is peculiar so when i am listening to music on my phone inside the train my music stutters before entering station and after leaving a station. It's so weird. I noticed that it happens because of my cellular network connecting and disconnecting as i pass stations on the train. And when i connect or disconnect from my network the music would stutter.
And this doesnt happen on my home.
Any help with this? Only happens with this ROM. And i can't post on the rom thread, it says i need 10 posts. :c
It's the subway station. Your phone is losing signal underground, that's all.
Play music stored locally when you're using the subway is pretty much all you can do. It's not a phone problem.
You could try a different baseband, but it might not make any difference.
Edit: or are you saying it is music that is stored on your phone which is doing this?

I am playing preloaded music from my sd card not streaming anything.
you might wanna check your music player's settings to use wakelocks or increase its audio playback priority
Which smartwatch would get the best reception on t-mobile?
Has anyone had success adding one of these watches to t-mobile's wearable plan? My main use for the watch is using endomondo running app and streaming music while out on a run and making an occasional phone call. Also connecting to a bluetooth speaker to play music while working out. Any recommendations?
