Hi guys,
I'm very new to Androi devices and am using the Samsung Galaxy Player 5 (international) as a head-unit in my car.
I'm trying to connect an external switch between the MIC and GND ports. This was working for a while, but it seems like after I installed a new ROM (Eryigit) the switch stopped working?!
I did some searching around and concluded that the kernel may be responsible for handling the headset buttons. Can anybody shed some light on this? Are there some kernels that may be broken and not support? Any low-level troubleshooting i can do to trace down the problem?
I have tried installing various Headset controlling applications but none of them recognize the press.
Does anybody know of a kernel / rom combination that works for sure with the headset?
I've spent countless hours searching and researching. Please HELP!!!

All of the kernels here are based on the stock one, so that should not be an issue. For troubleshooting, you can run as root in a terminal on the device 'getevent', which will output the scancode of sorts when you press a button.
Thanks for the lead.
I ran getevent and didn't see any events come up when pressing the headset button.
I ran a logcat and saw that HeadsetOperation entry said "mic: 0". Could that mean it's not properly detecting that I've inserted a headset with a mic?

Its a very nice bluetooth sterio headset / hands free.
Usual pairing, finds device - but says code is incorrect, and wont lock the device as trusted, any ideas?????
I use these with my HD no problem.
When setting up the pairing are you using four zero's "0000" as the passkey.
have done the 0000
with no luck - says wrong code...
having major probs everytime i switch the headset back on....
My BT experience is limited.
Are your S9s are paired with anything else, laptop maybe? If connected to something else when attempting to pair to your HD, maybe this would throw up that error?
I had a similar experience trying to connect to my laptop, I didn't realise they were still connected to my HD in the other room using the same headphone profile.
mmmm!....
nope, not paired anywhere else
If all else fails perhaps a factory reset?
I read this.
- Turn the Bluetooth Headset on
- Connect it to the charger
- Disconnect it after 5 seconds
- Reset is done.

S9 headphone
I used my S9 with my blackstone a few times and had no problems.
You should pair the headphone first through
Settings\connections\bluetooth with headphone profile and passkey 0000
If you put in passkey just in the application (e.g. coreplayer) then the device is possibly not paired and you have to put in the passkey next time again.
The S9 can save a device list of 8 devices and connect automaticaly to on of them if it found one of them working. This worked very well at my headphone.
Best regards Wolf_munich
I have a problem with the s9 with my htc hd. I pair up the device no problem but when i play a movie or music the volume is very very low almost can't hear a thing. i use the s9 with htc cruise don't have the low volume problem. Anyone know how to fix that problem
Im using a motorola S9 with my HD in playing music and videos with no problem, works perfect.

Using Coreplayer? check the volume pre amp value is not set too low.
i had trouble pairing after a reflash of my titan, entered the 0000 as per this thread and im away!
cheers folks
Motorola s9 handsfree
how to open it any idea?
I have the s9 aswell and ive had no problems pairing it with my hd though one time i didnt have a problem pairing it wih my computer i tried everything on the forums about reseting it and that didnt help. What i found to work was pairing the device with another bluetooth handset (xda orbit in my case) then trying to pair it again with the computer and that worked fine.
good luck with it and if all else fails you could always phone up motorola and get a replacement if its still in the 12 months.
keep us updated

Thank you for this, I've been trying everything to re-pair my s9 with my htc rhodium 400, passkey 0000 wasnt working, i kept getting errors, turned bt radio and device on and off and on and off and same problem, until i did the factory reset, then it took 0000 like a champ and paired up fine!
Hey all,
I have been using my Eris with a bluetooth Stereo for a quite a while, but when I rooted the phone over to a 2.1 ROM it started using Simple Secure Pairing (SSP) when authenticating the bluetooth headphones. My car stereo doesn't support this (its brand new too...).
So, the question is has anyone ever looked into disabling SSP and forcing it to use the old static key method of pairing in 2.1?
I am not adverse to diving in and doing the dev work, I just wanted to make sure someone hasn't already done it. If I do need to dive in does anyone know if its possible to disable it via a config file, or will I need to backport the bluez stack?
Thanks for all the great work,
traetox
I too am having this issue. Worked fine in 1.5 but ever since root it will play audio through pioneer head unit but phone won't connect. I will patiently await a fix.

Oh, so that's what's up.
I'm having a similar problem with my Jabra Cruiser bluetooth speakerphone/FM transmitter. What mine does, though, is it will connect and I can use it to listen to music and do the normal speakerphone functions like it normally would, but none of the media buttons will work anymore. It's not a huge inconvenience, since I mount my phone in the car anyway (long commute). It's only a problem if I need to have Google Navigation in the foreground but still want to change songs.
Patiently waiting. You devs are awesome, if you don't get enough sycophantic slobbering already.
ok, so I did some digging on mine and it turns out that I can pair with a simple bluetooth headset via the '0000' key. But the phone attempts to go through the full key negotiation to connect the "bluetooth headphones." So i can get audio via the headset negotiated connection, but it sounds awful without full AD2P.
I am getting a ROM kitchen setup and will try and map the 1.5 bluez stack onto the 2.1 source and see where that gets me.
Thanks for the input.
Thanks for working on this! I've tried to incorporate some of the Bluetooth files as well as the WLAN.ko from other roms into my Rom but have been unsuccesful. I am running damage control 2.08 that I ported. I was originally unable to get WiFi or Bluetooth to work until I copied the WLAN.ko from the oc patch now both work minus the phone. Don't know if this helps but figured i let you know. If you have those files from a 1.5 Rom I will try them in my port and let you know what the results are.

I have a Jabra Crusier, and I'm having an issue with a lot of ROMs where I can not connect to it and stream music over bluetooth. I have found that Aloysius v6 Maps rom by Spencer Moore works well with the bluetooth thing. You may have to connect and disconnect a few times here and there to get it to connect, but it's been the best ROM for it. I used V11 Maps and it worked for a little while, but stopped connecting properly just recently.
There are a few known bugs with v6, but I'm fiddling with V11 to try and get the bluetooth to stay perm. Once I get it, I'll let Spencer Moore know and get him any new updates I come across.
Just an update. I am able to pair and connect to phone using white widow Rom.

I just purchased a Sony H/U for the car.
The phone is found with no problem, but no matter what I do I cannot get sound to come out of the H/U when using B/T or USB, playing music or using the phone handsfree.
I have 2.2.2 installed on the phone, Build 15609, OEM GAUSB1A135100.
I have a B/T earpiece that works properly. I made sure it was disconnected in case there was some kind of interference but that didn't help.
Anyone have any suggestions as to where to start?
The automatic search came up with nothing for the Streak when I started the thread.
Hi there,
I've got really strange problem with my XPERIA MINI PRO - when I plug in the headphones, the phone wouldn't recognize them.
Only if I've had them plugged before BOOT of my phone.
So, when Iam turning on / rebooting my phone with plugged phones, they're working and recognized, but when I disconnect them, same problem -> phone ignores it.
So, my xperia mini pro can't recognize the action of plugging in phones in general. Have tried official kernel, custom kernel, few roms and its deffinitely a hardware problem.
Does anyone knows how does this phone recognize that? And what might be my problem?
Thanx for any ideas.

i have a similar problem on mine, but mine thinks it has headphones plugged it all the time! i downloaded an app called "headset toggle" it gives you a widget on your home screen to show if headphones are connected or not, and clicking on the icon forces a connect or disconnect of them regardless of wether they are connected or not, should fix your problem:

edit: just to add i have 4.0.4 and it works perfect on my phone
Headset not recognising
i am facing the similar problem...... my headset is also not detecting when i plug in, detecting only when i reset my phone and when i unplug again it's not detecting. i face this problem since i update my mobile to latest version (ICS 4.0.4)

Hello,
I had the exact same problem. It was a hardware problem. The only way is to take it in for service as I did. was repaired at electronics level.
Is it possible to solve this problem with headphones? Any app? Toggleheadset does not work for me. Thanks

did you use a SE headphone or a normal headphone?
i got similar problem. If jack isnt plugged in, there are some electronical noises in microphone, so i cant use, if i remove jack, the phone doesnt recognize. i ToggleHeadset, now microphone works good, and recognized that i removed the jack
what hardware causes this problem? i ask it because i bring my mini pro friday to the service, and maybe i'll ask about it there for repair.

This is a halfway software solution to make the phone work, for a complete repair i believe taking the phone to service is necessary.
I have a hardware problem where xperia mini pro (Stock Rom ICS 4.0.4) is constantly detecting headphones connecting and disconnecting. This stops all the multimedia with sound, so it was impossible to start a music file or video because it was automaticly paused).
Disabling the Live ware app (connect now app) did not help,
This may not work for people who can not make phone play music or videos after headphones are inserted,
I managed to solve problem with software and by inserting headphones in the jack once every boot.
You need 2 apps; soundabout and toggleheadset2 (widget),
soundabout does not need to be registered), you will just need to set soundabout service to run on every boot, and set the 'media audio' output to speaker by default.
Every time phone is booted or rebooted insert the headphones, then play a song, remove the headphones and toggle headset to off, every time you wish to use the headphones you will need to toggle the headset widget to on manually,
i recommend to have phone calls and messages also set to vibrate in case you forget to toggle after unplugging the headphones.
I have not yet managed to get working the headset microphone,
If the headphones work in iPhone they wont work in Xperia mini pro or arcs or 2011 device , u need JVC gummy plus , they come with adaptor to sort the problem
Sent from my SK17i using xda app-developers app
There is 2 headphone and Mic standards omtp and cita and only one headphone standard, older Xperia used a differnt standard to what they use today , everyone jumped on the iPhone standard

Yes, my device is running 4.2.2, thanks!
Hello ttsugar, I've read your post about the pairing issue, I've got the same too.
I've experienced this troubles with two new phones, both with MTK6592 - octacore -, when tried to connect to my car audio device: the phones are the Cubot X6, and the Star N9800; my car DVD combo player is from EONON brand.
With my old phones all worked at the top, as regards all the bluetooth functions. Still with my iNew V3 the pairing works like a delight, and all the bluetooth functions were good at all.
I surfed the internet to find a solution, tried some patches, but nothing to do with the new octacore, the song remains the same : "..,invalid passkey..." . no way to introduce the pairing code.
I don't think that the problem is the 4.2.2 android version, becouse my iNew V3 has got this version too, and works perfectly...
I really think that the problem stands in the different hardware of the bluetooth chipset included in the new MTK6592 ( they speak about 4.0 ), so the protocol doesn't communicate well with the old devices.
Hope to find a solution asap, I need the same too !
Has anyone reached out to eonon about this issue? I just purchased the cubot x6 and having the exact same problem. anyway If I find something i will let everyone know. So far I requested if any updates or patches for the head unit and if not would it be possible to change the pin number on the head unit.
