is there anyway to get the satnav to interupt your cars headunit the same way that a call does.
i.e im listening to my headunit (fm radio) in car. infact no matter what source i'm listening to if a call comes in the source is interupted and the call can be auto answered.
but when satnav has an instruction to give it does not interupt the headunit source! to get the satnav voice over you have to be in bluetooth audio mode!
while playing audio from your phone mp3 etc to the headunit satnav will over voice it. i thought i found the solution by having the radio on my phone on playing through bluetooth audio but it won't let you it only has the ability to play through wired headset or speaker!
fix?
i must add. yes i realise the wired headset acts as the radio antenna. so what i want is the wired headset plugged in = antenna but sound to go through bluetooth

Does anyone know of a adapter I can use to connect my 8525 to my car cassette player to play some mp3s?
Casette adapter
I'm using regular (wired) casete adapter which I got from RadioShack and connect it to R35 which in its turn is paired with TyTN. By this I can listen mp3 stored in mн PDA as well as on-line radio through car speakers. I should note that quality is much better than I expected, better tha regular radio (not HD )
Wonderful news thanks..
I installed the Sony MEX-BT5000. Its able to stream audio from the tytn via BT. Very nice, it connects automatically when I start the engine. I also use it as my handsfree for calls. At first, callers said they couldnt hear me loudly, so I flipped down the faceplate during calls and now calls are good. This is because the mic is behind the faceplate.
Just thought I'd throw it out there...another option to connect the tytn wirelessly.

This is wonderful news because I was just looking into some bt radios..
Do you have a BT headset? I'm curious if I can still use my headset while in the car and just do the audio part..
I do have a BT headset, but I found that the combination doesnt work well. I tried to split the audio streaming to the headunit, and then the handsfree to the headset, but the results were unreliable at best.
I've found that the headunit mic is good enough quality to speak through, as long as you flip down the faceplate. If you dont want to use the handsfree, you can use the audio only and regular Tytn phone. The BT connections are separated by Sony.
Interestingly enough, I was able to internet radio stream via BT to the headunit, and run Tomtom navigator 5 BT GPS unit at the same time. The music volume was decreased and the directions came over the music.
I guess I could just turn off my headset while in the car. I assume it will mute the radio when calls come through..
So you don't get any skipping or anything while playing mp3s?
Do you store your mp3s on a storage card?
Mp3s stored on storage card and internet radio streaming doesnt skip connected via bluetooth.
What is a R35? Is it a BT radio reciever of some sort?
hi
I walk to work and back everyday and I listen to my DAB radio all the time.
Problem is (and I realise its not the biggest problem in the world) I can't hear my phone so always miss calls.
Can anyone think of a solution so I can get audio from my DAB into the Hermes so I can listen to the radio and when I get a call, it interupts the audio? I thought about using the mini usb but that only has a mic in and if I use that, if the phone rings all they'll hear is my radio
Its a big of an expensive solution but would this work?:

So I bluetooth audio to my Hermes then use the wired headphones/mic to listen to it and if I get a call, the audio stops?!
Would that work?
thanks in advance

You could just have your phone on ring AND vibrate and keep it in your pocket so you feel it.
Just an idea
Try these instead. http://www.plantronics.com/north_america/en_US/products/cat1150057/cat5420035/prod29780013
I have had a pair for about a year and the sound is great. You can connect the included dongle your DAB or any other non blue tooth audio device and set up a link between your phone and the dongle with the headset. While you are listening to your music from the DAB if you receive a call the headset silences the music and you can answer the call directly from the headset. When the call ends your music resumes automatically. I may be a little pricier than device you listed but works like a charm.
Note make sure you look at the 590a not the 590e. The 590e does not include the dongle.
Also don't purchase it directly from Plantronics site. You can get it for about $100 if you search the web for it.
I just experienced a bug. I got in mij car, enabled bluetooth and stared the enging. I could hear the touch cruise connect to the parrot bluetooth carkit (usually it beeps twice, now it beeped 4-5 times).
I fired up my TomTom, instructions were given over the speakers of my car stereo (via carkit)!! I did some testing with other audio files, all worked over speakers.
Quality wasn''t sufficient for audio, but e-books and podcasts sounded good enough.
After a few minutes of playing arround I received a call, after hanging up the call the usual way on the carkit shut down the possibility to hear audio over the car speakers.
Anybody know a way to force audio over the car speakers through the handsfree??
Try this tool:
it sends all the audio signals to the headset (or BT Carkit)
Would it be possible to switch bluetooth audio on just when there is a sound to play, cause it seems a little bit useless to hear nothing when my navigation has nothing to say..
How do I get all audio on my Verizon Touch Pro to play through my bluetooth earpiece?
With my Motorola Q, I connected the bluetooth device, it changed to a Headset profile and all audio (tcpmp, windows media, etc) played through the bluetooth device.
When I connect the same bluetooth earpice to my Touch Pro, the only time it activates is if I hit voice command or once a call is connected.
I also have bluetooth stereo headphones with that stereo profile and those do get audio from Windows Media player.
How do I get audio from TCPMP/Windows Media to play through the Hands Free profile that the bluetooth earpieces I have use?
Anyone able to help with this? I'm disappointed that I can't listen to audio through a bluetooth headset with the hands-free profile.
There has to be a simple fix.
Tap and hold the name of the headset and tap 'Set as Wireless Stereo.'
That option is grayed out for my mono headsets.
Any other ideas?

that is because your headset is not a2dp. what you did before was just have the crappy audio go across your headset without true a2dp so the sound was pretty bad. i have jabra bt8010 and sometimes i have to refresh the option on my headset to set wireless stereo. if i don't, the audio is piss poor because i'm just piggy backing ontop of the voice command audio stream.

Yes, I understand that.
But, my question is how can I get audio to come through my mono bluetooth headset when it's connected? On my Motorola Q, ALL audio routed through the headset when it was connected. On the TP, only if I start voice command or make a call does audio get sent to the headset.
I use the headset to listen to podcasts, so that's what I'm looking for.
I did find a program that would route all audio through the headset, but I do have to run it each time I connect the headset. I suppose that will suffice though.
Does anyone know of a way or even an App that will route audio from separate source on the device to different outputs? For exampe, when i have my S4 in the car dock, I'd like to have phone audio get routed to my Bluetooth headset and any other audio like Pandora or GPS directions to go to the car speakers?
thanks
You should be able to go into bluetooth just press and hold the bluetooth to ogle and it will take you there you should be able to hit your paired devices each time you push each one it will change your audio output to each paired device. I do it every day with mine, I use headset for phone and wireless headphones for media I.e music Netflix Pandora etc etc
