Bluetooth A2DP - HTC Amaze 4G

Hoping a fellow xda member has found a way around this issue before. So I connect my amaze to my cars stereo to stream using A2DP, I use to do this with my galaxy s 2 as well. One thing I find annoying about the amaze is that unlike my gs2 it doesnt connect automatically and I have to enter the pin code everytime can someone share a way to get the amaze to automatically do this? Tried some autoconnect Bluetooth app from the market but it still made me type in the pin code.

In my car you have to register the phone to the head unit in order for it to connect automatically. Have you done this?
Hope it helps,

It works with my truck 100%. It may be your radio. I have an aftermarket Sony radio unit and my Amaze connects to it with no problem. My music plays through my speakers and I do not have to enter a pin code besides pairing it up for the first time.

Well I'm using a pioneer and my galaxy s 2 did this just fine. Everything else works fine which is weird I can flip through songs from the head unit. Another issue I see is the amaze only connects media or phone depending on which screen I'm on with my pioneer the only way to connect both is by going into the settings and doing it manually.

Which pioneer do you have? My brother has the AVH-5200DVD and his works with no problem. I connected it for him and it works.

Avh-2300dvd with the Bluetooth module btb200

Are you on ICS or GB? I'm thinking of you should probably install ICS for the updated radio. It may give you a better connectivity.

I'm on ics it didn't work on either maybe my phone isnt paired as the primary or there is something I can reset in the stereo?
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using Tapatalk 2

it connects with my car without any problem. and since i upgraded my phone to ics the connectivity is even faster.

Hmm, gonna go mess with it don't see any reason for it not to work the way it does for you

You guys were right it connects rediculously fast with ics I got it figured out, has to register the phone permanently apparently the Bluetooth unit can connect for just a one time connect and permanent registration.

I have a 08 lancer gts with a navigation. It's connects to Bluetooth automatically. I recently added a2dp Bluetooth aux and I now have it connect automatically to that whenever I turn in the car. Only had to enter the pin once.
Running ICS rooted, unlocked with s-off

Bluetooth

So, not that it's SUPER important. But I just got done dialing my system in my truck in. Put all the speakers in, sub, amps, head unit, etc etc. And I got a model with bluetooth. And I must say, it's legit. I can stream music via it from my phone, take calls and it'll mute the music so I can take the call. I recommend to anyone that drives and talks a lot to do this. It's not too much and it's very helpful and sounds decent too.
been doing that in my car for a couple years now... Love it. But for some reason my MoFo will drop the BT connection after playing music for about 20 mins. Well maybe drop the connection is the wrong thing to say, it is still connected, still get message notifications through the Headunit, but it stops streaming the music....
Are you using the stock music player?

My issues seem to only be in wife's car with a newer jvc unit. I have an older eclipse unit and it works decent but no audio interupts
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
Just put a jvc unit in my work car. Damn its sweet. Love being able to stream music without the aux cable.
Also mine has a bt remote so i cab skip tracks through Pandora or any of the other music apps without using the phone.
This and the unlimited Pandora apk is the best combo ever.

Do you guys leave your bt enabled on your phones? Never really used anything Bluetooth except for my ps3 so i don't know how much it would affect battery life leaving it on.

Is everyone having pretty good call quality on both ends? And what kinda set do you run? Stock? Just a head unit?

Mine is a jvc kdr520 I got off Crutchfield. Call quality is great. I had my wife call me from the car and its all clear as it gets.

Jvc av794 i think. Works awesome. Names of songs pop up via bt through music app. Calls also work great. Car has a factory 9 speaker h/k otherwise
I also have an eclipse cd5030 and call quality sucks. But its been that way with all phones. I think the car is too loud and there is no echo cancellation sw.
Factory speakers otherwise. And a 10 inch sub.

Right on. I'm running four mids two tweets two amps and a sub. The amp is actually kinda handy for call volume.

Bluetooth???

Is anyone else experiencing constant Bluetooth disconnects while streaming audio? This happenes to me every 15-20 minutes whether I am listening to music or an audio book. Its only become an issue again because I started to drive my car which has MS sync in it. This is driving me insane because the only way I can get it to reconnect is to cycle the Bluetooth radio on the phone... So here I am at highway speeds playing with my phone, the exact thing the Sync is supposed to prevent.
Thanks

I get it every so often using my jawbone icon and Netflix. I am on the latest 198-7 ROM. I ended up making a tasker shortcut to cycle through for me, which works well. maybe you could program your camera button or something.

Every single time! It was annoying. Specially when increase or decreasing the volume. Im using an a2dp bluetooth headset. And reconnecting it, is a pain! Need to unpair n pair it over n over n over again

Thankfully, this is one problem I do NOT have!
Flawless connectivity with my Plantronics Voyager Pro+ and with my Hyundai Genesis.
I have not seen this issue at all. my truck unit works great and my Motorola headset works well. i stream every day and haven't had a bug yet, knock on wood.
I have a set of moto s9-hds and i have to unpair and pair at least once a day. I read on the moto forums that its a known problem.

I had this problem, I even started a thread for it. I used rsdlite to flash back to an older software an updated manually. Then once u pair your Bluetooth device click down on it and wait a few seconds and options will come up. Just make sure everything is checked off. Pm me if u need more help. I will try to make a video for everyone else.

I had the jawbone icon and i had the same frequent disconnect issues a few times a day, but i got the new motorola elite flip, love it btw, works way better than the icon every did and has only disconnected once since i have been using it for 3 days now and it automatically reconnected, unlike my icon where i had to do the power cycle

I have to shut down Pandora, thur headphones off/on, then go back to what I was doing? I just THOUGHT it was Pandora?

3.5mm jack problems

Just bought my second AMAZE. Rooted & S-OFF yesterday. Don't kno if it is from rooted or just a hardware issue. ANYBODY ELSE!!!!!!!
what's your problem?
My Headphones. Keep disconnecting. And I tried two different headphones
Both headphones work on my glacier so I kno its the phone itself. Just curious if anybody else encountered the same problem if not then its definitely an hardware issue.
I'm starting to have the same issue, my bro had this.problem as well. It is a hardware issue

I usually use BlueTooth but i remember the batt being a bit flat so i plugged in to the jack and it seemed a bit cracklely.. Sounds like a common fault.

No mine does not work at all when you plug in the headphone jack normally, I have to plug it in slowly untill it works
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using Tapatalk 2
On one of mine on headphones with mic and button, button click in not recognized.
On another works just fine.
Tried 3 different headphones – same result.
Installed app to detect/configure clicks – it doesn’t see any button clicks.
Headphones and mic works fine on both – means every ring on 3.5 jack has proper contact.
What else could it be?
I can plug super slowly – the icon changes from headphones to headphones with mic.
But button doesn’t work still
I see I'm not the only one with this problem I'm just surprised cause my phone was only one day old. My wife has the same phone non rooted will check hers tonight when I get home from work. If hers work I'm just going to swap it out and see if still has the problem.
OK so I stopped home reel quick and checked my wife's phone and her non rooted phone jack does the same thing so its either the OTA UPDATE or they just gave us a crappy jack port to all phones
I'm testing it out on my phone right now. What is it that I'm looking for because everything is working here for me.
Well I'm listening to a song on YT though.
Don't know if that makes a difference.
The headphones keep connecting & disconnect like every couple of seconds. It will not hold a steady connection for the headphones.
mine was fine before OTA, now i got the same problem
Some headphone got compatibility problems n usually gold tips don't have probs with any phone or mp3

Its not a rom issue. In post ten I stated that my wify's non-rooted HTC AMAZE with ota has the same problem

Bluetooth Audio Volume

With my phone connected to my car stereo via bluetooth, the volume seems considerably low compared to my rezound, which was even lower than my thunderbolt. Phone and deck are both maxed out.
Tried various EQ apps, not much difference..
On stock rom, not rooted.
Anyone else have this issue?

Are you on the OTA update?
My Bluetooth headset has very low volume which has been reported by others. I was hoping this was fixed in the OTA.
Yes im on update.

You're not the only one. I've spent most of my time in the Android Central forums and same issue reported there as well. Update seems to have improved connecting but quality hasn't changed much. Personally speaking my Plantronics Voyager worked great on my Samsung Fascinate but on the DNA ... well let's just say a toaster would do a better job with audio.
What Bluetooth software is in your car? I believe the droid DNA uses 4.0 and updating your Bluetooth software in your car via usb might help ya

Can't say I've had the same problem with Korean car head units, Ford Sync units, LG HBS 700 headphones, and an older Jawbone Prime. All have worked fine, and in the case of the LG headphones, I have to operate them both at significantly lower than full volume on both.

No.
I've tried replacing the HTC BT drivers with both stock drivers and CAF drivers and neither made any difference that I could tell.
Dsb9938 pulled an alternative user space stack from somewhere and that didn't change anything for me either.

Horrible bluetooth?

So I have had bluetooth problems with this phone sine day one.. On all my roms and even after getting a replacement phone. I also have used 3 different bluetooth headsets on it.. Is this just me or a wide spread problem?

I did have some problems before and most of the time it was fixed by increasing the max frequency while screen was off ( I was using viper rom or meanbean), I don't know what rom you are having trouble with and also Bluetooth is really sensitive to interference specially in open spaces, I work outside and I've noticed that if I wave my hand right next to my handset while on a phone call, I get the static and crackling noise you might be referring to, but if I'm in my house I dont get the same result... What rom are you using? Kernel? Scheduler? Or app to set your frequencies? I'm on cm 10.1 and this is my second replacement which doesn't like over clock without the kernel stabilizer made by Viperboy and I'm currently using Komodo rls 30, I don't have that static anymore... :good:
Hatkalte 1.3.2... But it happens on all roms. Also it crackles and then disconnects and then reconnects.. And then cycles again.. It's so annoying.

Ok, my bluetooth died at the end and would not be recognized nor recognize any device that I had previously paired with my phone so I had to use VipeRuu and got it replaced, this is my second replacement after that bluetooth failure... Good luck, you might have a hardware issue like mine was, I won't be surprised if in a couple days it dies completely just like my original evo lte, have you tried stock rom?
Sent from my EVO
I've had issues as well. The best performance I had was on an aosp rom. I was able to walk a crossed 8 bays and through a door and still pick up my music playing. I've noticed sometimes while doing yard work that the music would be very choppy. My buddy has an lte and the same LG tone headset and has the same problems. Hopefully when I get my new s4 my problems will be solved. I'll report back when I verify if it is the phone or the headset or just bluetooth in general.
