[Q] BT Audio / Pandora / Jedi XV12 - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

I just upgraded my Rom to the Jedi XV12 rom without issue. Currently I'm experiencing a "silent" audio when the phone is synced to my car via bluetooth BT and trying to listen to Pandora. My car has the Pandora app and prior to this ROM I did not have the issue. I "turned" the volume up on the phone and it showed the BT audio at max... yet there was no sound. Is there something else I need to do or update on the phone?

Check the settings on your paired Bluetooth device and make sure media audio is selected. Otherwise I'm not sure. You might try to delete the device and re-pair it.

This. I bet that's you're problem too.
I Have to check both everytime I sync. Really wish the settings would stick after I sect both options

Try "BT Mono" from the play store. Not a fix per se, but it did the trick for me.

I questioned the developer of the ROM as well. Just did a wipe. Hope it works tomorrow. Media audio didn't do it. That didn't change. Worked before this ROM.

What music app are you using ? Did you try a different one ? I'm using Subsonic and I'm having issues with eq's.
My audio work with my Bluetooth in my car neither the in app nor Beat's eq's work. I did not have eq issues with Bean's which I'm probably going to switch back to.
Looks like Google Music app works with Beats so for me it was the app I was using.

Well, according to the thread title, [Q] BT Audio / Pandora / Jedi XV12, looks like he is using Pandora.

Interesting enough..... If I have BT Audio enabled for both Phone Audio and Media Audio.... ANY BT audio does not come through the BT device. If I uncheck the Phone Audio.... it plays just fine. The Controls for the player work fine in either scenario... just no audio if the Phone Audio is checked. I have had intermittent success by having the audio going.... unchecking phone audio... listening for a few... and then re-checking phone audio. Sometimes it will keep playing without issue.... other times it "mutes" the media audio even though it is checked.
Did I confuse anyone.... LOL

[Q] Bluetooth Audio Quality

Is anyone having issues with 'tinny' and distorted sounding audio while streaming via A2DP? I'm using a Blackberry audio gateway that worked flawlessly with my old G1 but with the Vibrant I find the audio quality so appalling I can't even listen to it. It's definitely not a question of the volume settings being too high. It also does this for EVERY program so its a global problem, possibly with the bluetooth stack. For now I'm coping with the 1/8" jack but thats starting to drive me nuts.
Anyone experience this? Is there a way to force the stack not to use A2DP or other protocols?
Yes A2DP sounds bad for me as well. I'm using a kenwood bt-200 made by parrot for my kenwood head unit and the audio is distorted at higher frequencies and it's missing a lot of mid bass. With my wifes mytouch the same setup sounds excellent.
Samsung released an update for improved A2DP streaming in korea so maybe well see it here as well? Like you I've just been using an rca cable for audio because A2DP is simply unusable with the Vibrant.

The more I listen to it the more I think its a volume/clipping issue than an encoding issue. Thank christ I'm not alone I was beginning to suspect I was being a whiney brat about the quality.
I just tested the gateway with a third phone and it also works flawlessly. Getting frustrated...

So does anyone have experience extracting files from Samsung .rfs files? I'm trying to do so via adb and failing miserably. I'm hoping to snag the new bluetooth.apk from the 2.2 developement build from Samsung to see if it has the sound quality updates.
Anyone?
I'm trying to determine if it's just the crappy TouchWiz Music Player they replaced the default Android player with. When I stream from other apps it sounds noticeably better (like Last.FM or Pandora), and I tried the Cubed player for a comparison of MP3 audio and it also sounded better.
Have any of you done a comparison like that?
I carried over the heavily modded cyanogen music player and besides that I use slacker. Still sucks.

Yep pandora, slacker, and the music player all sound terrible through A2DP.

Phone fell on it's face when trying to use the experimental bluetooth files. Wouldn't boot or respond to anything. Going to restore my nandroid backup and call it a night. Looks like we'll have to wait for the update...
If anyone can offer some more insight in regard to what I should do with the files please let me know.
It looks like the Vibrant isn't the only Android phone suffering A2DP quality issues. Please vote on Android issue 9888 if you are experiencing subpar A2DP audio quality from your Android device!

Thanks for the heads up. Honestly sounds like a Bluetooth 3.0 issue with android now. Just shocked so few people are complaining.

Rezound and bluetooth

The bluetooth connection with my RX 400 has horribly static. it is running rhe stock rom without the new ota. does anyone else have issues with their connections or suggestions?
Working with my 2011 Touareg. No static, but I don't play media through bluetooth. Just calls.
But it keeps trying to pair even after it successfully pairs.

most vehicles dont supports playing audio. i only care about the static issue
I have found that if I am holding it in my hand, then it does have alot of static. But if I do put it in my pocket with the back facing out, then I am fine.
I use it for phone and music and streaming podcasts paired with my Gen 3 Prius with no problems. Even the music sounds really good.

Car bluetooth audio issues

When my phone is connected to my car's bluetooth, phone functions all work correctly, as well as music. However the only player that will stream is the system music. How would I get other players to work? Please let me know any additional information needed.

How about MixZing?
Hi. I have an Lg Optimus One (P500)with Stock Gingerbread 2.3.3 (rooted).
I installed MixZing 3.7 and it works perfectly on my Parrot MKi9000 kit. It is the player that starts by default when I choose the "Audio Bluetooth" option on the kit.
All keys work perfectly as well (Prev./Next/Play/Pause.
Hope it helped.
Cheers.
What I would like is to use any media player, not pick one that works. Is there a settings or "fix" app to do this?

Bluetooth Audio Streaming issue

I have been searching around and can't seem to find anyone else that has had this issue....I installed a new stereo in my truck that has Bluetooth and my phone connects fine but when I stream music from my phone the rear speakers don't work. I have checked all the Radio settings and everything on my phone but I don't see any settings for something like that. I am on flapjaxx's ICS IMM76D UCLE2 BASE rom. Any help would be appreciated.

not every bt car audio system has the ability to stream music, just because you can make phone calls through it..
does the owners manual say that you can stream music from any android phone through it?
you might want to contact them and ask them directly
Yes, I actually bought it for the android streaming ability. I figured it has to be my phone since I can not make it do that any other time. Just curious if anyone else has had an issue like this.

Ya could try to/mess around with your radio settings while streaming. Surround sound options etc that might help. Also download a good music player for your phone with a lot of optimization ability. I use power amp pro in my 11 Kia sorento with no issues

Ford Sync and BT Audio Streaming?

Hi,
I have a 2012 Ford Focus with Sync and not able to get the audio to stream over Bluetooth on my Verizon GSIII. I've looked in the Bluetooth menu on the phone and it says phone and audio sync. However when I go into Phone mode in my vehicle, only phone call audio will come through the speakers but If I try streaming music, no audio comes through the speakers (or the phone). Does anyone have Ford Sync and has successfully streamed audio through bluetooth? If so, are there settings I'm missing somewhere?
I have no issue with my GS3 and Ford Sync. But I encountered it before using my older Android phone. I resolved it by doing a master reset and pairing them again. Hope this helps.
I don't personally own sync... My Mustang and F150 are too old but I drove my Dads Fusion yesterday. I didn't have a ton of time to play here is what I found worked....
First Sync the 2,
Then go in my phone into the Bluetooth menu and click on sync and make sure they are paired & connected.
(Generally in the past it just automatically did that like on my Tbolt.)
I'll let you know as I play with it more. It was very clear bluetooth audio at that!!
I have a 2011 Ford Flex and have no issue. Make sure you're saying. "Bluetooth Audio" when prompt by the voice command from the car. If you're still are having issues try pulling the fuse in the vehicle for your SYNC system (look in your owner's manual for location) for about 60 seconds, allow it to sit for 10 minutes, resync your phone and try again.

lol im waiting for a 2013 focus ST and this isnt encouraging.
It worked with my DX2 so I can only assume it would work with the SGIII. It's not a very forgiving or likable feature though.

I have a 2009 Focus and have used several brands of phones all with Sprint and have been able to use bt audio. In some occasions I have to go to the bt screen and press and hold your bt connection and you will get a submenu that let you select the audio or media connection.

There's also a message function on Sync that I have never been able to use. :-(

I did make sure the volume was turned up on my phone. The Sync in my vehicle has a button to press to go into phone mode and that is what i was in... i cycled through settings there but couldn't find anything for media. I also pressed the Aux button in the car to be sure it didn't want that mode, but that was actually looking for an auxiliary connection and not bluetooth.... I'll have to experiment some more with what some people talked about in this thread, but so far no dice.

turn you bt on, on the right side of Sync there is a (*) for setup, press it you will see the call-media audio settings. select the media setting and you should be ok. you MUST be Paired to do this with bt on.
