my xtrons doesnt have bluetooth devices settings, like when you swiped down its not listed, and in settings there is no "connected devices" . It does have a bt app but i think its only for phones. My phone pairs with it perfectly and can stream to it. but there is nothing search for other bluetooth devices like a headset, odbii reader or my ham radio. mainly I want to connect my ham radio to (vero vn7500)
does anyone know of an addon app from playstore that will added blue tooth functionality

I use my Hero in the car for sat nav, using Copilot. I also connect it via bluetooth to the stereo to give me hands-free calling.
The problem I have is that when I do, the sat nav voice doesn't come out of the speaker of the phone, but is routed to the stereo. I can hear it when I select bluetooth as the source on the stereo, but this means that I can't listen to the radio/CD/ipod and hear the sat nav directions.
I used to have exactly the same issue using TomTom on Windows Mobile, however there was an option there when it connected to the stereo to only use it as a headset, not for wireless music. I can't seem to find this option on the Hero.
There is also the known issue that the Hero doesn't support transfer of contacts over bluetooth - that's annoying but I can live with it, however the problem above is a real pain. Any ideas?
Think I found it - once you have paired a device, click and hold it under Bluetooth settings, then you have the option media - unclick this and all should be well! Still need to test it though.
Another method,
On my bluetooth car stereo I can "discnct Audio" seperately from "discnct Handsfree" and "discnct Phone"
Just FYI.
Trying to pair my HD2 with my Pioneer DEH-P710BT and neither device will recognize the other after numerous attempts to follow each of the owner's manuals. Both have Bluetooth switched on and are discoverable and this just worked with my old iPhone on the first try. Is there a trick to this or something I'm missing? Anyone been successful pairing an HD2 to a Pioneer headunit? Thanks!
I have a sony xplod and it works fine with my HD2. You want to put your stereo into pairing mode and search for it with your phone, like you would with a bt headset.
I have the exact same model and I've experienced endless frustration trying to get it to work seamlessly with the HD2. My Blackberry has no issues with the connection to the DEH-710BT radio. There seems to be an issue with the devices establishing a connection, however when they do finally connect it stays reliable for as long as the radio is on.
Going through the Bluetooth settings in the HTC Sense menu often causes the connections to be reset and not work without a number of repairing attempts. Eventually it will work, but its taken me up to 10 minutes to get A2DP and the headset profile to work together.
There are some posts about people having issues with other car stereos and registry settings that are supposed to help. I've tried the registry settings without success in having the devices fully automatically connect.
After playing with the devices for a while, I've gotten it so that the devices 100% of the time automatically connect with the headset profile, however I cannot get them to automatically connect with the A2DP profile. The reliable work-around I've found is after I start my car, I go to Start->Settings->Bluetooth and then click on Stereo Audio under the Pioneer Device. While a bit of a pain, it isn't nearly as bad as trying to use the HTC Sense menu.

speoples20: You're exactly right, my headunit would not find the HD2 but the HD2 found the headunit (took me 5 tries before I got a successful pairing). Thanks!
dmattox: Thanks for the heads up about the A2DP situation, I don't have music loaded on the device yet since I use thumb drives but I'll have to try it out and report back if I have better luck. It is cool that the A2DP feature is there, I don't believe this was supported on the iPhone.
I currently run a Pioneer AVIC-D3 using the Pioneer CD-BTB200 bluetooth module.
I have no issues with connecting my HD2 (and previously my Touch Pro2) to my head unit for both voice and bluetooth stereo.

I have the AVIC Z110BT on my car and I connect the HD2 fine. I do have to do it from the HD2 and not the AVIC unit as opposed to when I had my iphone, but my HD2 connects flawlessly and I can use BT for Audio without any skip. My iphone used to skip every 30 seconds when I played it with the BT Audio connection. I have Energy Rom on my phone, but it worked all the same when I had stock rom as well.
Alright,
Quick question, is it possible to make your phones bluetooth connection strength very good, like for example, let's say I've got 5 s8's, and a car that plays bluetooth audio, I've paired all 5 phones to the car, is there a way to make one of the phones pair automatically? Is there a setting on the phone? Or will it be from the car?, if its on the phone,am I able to do this to all Bluetooth devices? So if I go near a Bluetooth device, that I've paired with,and there's someone else beside me that's paired,I want it to connect to mine first,
Thanks
You should first try looking in the Bluetooth settings in your car multimedia system. It's really dependent on each system if it allows this kind of behavior.
In the standard settings and main Apps there's no way to pair with other devices than phones or Bluetooth audio devices.
Problem is that a Bluetooth device like an OBD dongle needs to be paired through PIN code. There's no way to do that in the standard settings in some of these devices.
The solution comes from an app called: Bluetooth Force Pin Pair (connect) available from the play store.
Download the app and open it.
Enter the PIN code for the Bluetooth device (usually 1234 or 0000 see the device manual)
Search for the wanted device, in our case the OBD dongle. Then pair and your done!
The device is successfully paired. Then you of course go to your App (in our case Realdash or Torque pro) and go to connections and select Bluetooth and search/select the wanted Bluetooth device.
Done.
i have done this, but whenever i go to torque or obdlink, it tries to connect again with the original BT app..
I purchased ac8227l android head unit which came with Zlink 5 installed which supports wireless carplay and Android Auto.
It connects just fine but the problem is with calls. As soon as Android Auto is connected, the bluetooth disconnects and the Android Auto only works through the WiFi hotspot that is created by the headunit.
Now the problem is, when I try to make a call or receive a call, the call is routed to my phone's earpiece because bluetooth is not connected.
I tried with wired Android Auto but had the same problem.
I also tried to go into bluetooth settings and manually force connect bluetooth but I get an error saying "Wireless Zlink mode now! Connect bt not permitted". I get this error even with wired connection for some reason.
My Zlink version is 5.3.5 and Android version is 11.
Hello
I have the same problem. My device is AC8257 based.
But contrary to your situation, i can re-establish the Bluetooth manually.
Another issue, the icons are very small and Google assistant does not listen to my voice.
In carplay mode, everything works fine.
