Car stereo has bluetooth. I finally hooked up a microphone so it's usable in the car for making calls. When I place a call everything works fine, but when I receive a call I can't hear the caller, although they can hear me fine.
Anyone else experience this and find a fix?
Running the latest official AT&T release with no modifications.
Yes, I keep finding this myself and I have discovered the "problem" and solution
Basically, any incoming calls default to handset speaker and you have to manually tap "bluetooth" to transfer the call to the headset/handsfree. When making outgoing calls, it defaults to Bluetooth from the offset so no problem!
What I do not know, however, is how to force it to default to Bluetooth on incoming call...
I have not seen that issue and I use BT in my car a lot. BB351
Something else that could be the case: Are you listening to music through A2DP bluetooth at the time that the call comes in? It's possible that the transition from A2DP to headset protocol is what is "blocking" the call from going straight to the handsfree?
chaosdefinesorder is correct, you could have a misbehaving music app (or any other app with audio over bluetooth, such as navigation).
I know that PowerAmp and Playerpro both work well with bluetooth with the music stopping when a call comes in.
I was listening to FM radio at the time. When the call ends it always go back to whatever I was listening to.
So next time I should tap the phone button on the radio instead of sliding the button on the phone, apparently.

This was it. I have to answer the head unit, not the phone.
Operator error.
Hi all,
I have a strange error with my Galaxy S3 when connected to bluetooth.
The first problem is that sometimes I hear distorted voices when answering or making calls and people say that they hear the same. Sometimes I just redial back and that solves it but sometimes I have to reboot the phone before it starts working.
The other issue is that while in a call I cannot transfer the call back to the headset. When I press the button and choose the headset I can hear the other side for about a sec and then it just disappears. Transferring the call back to the bluetooth sometimes help but most of the times I have to end the call and dial back.
This is really annoying cuz I make a lot of calls from my car and cannot exit the car before ending the call.
Worst thing is that my wife has an iPhone and that works great there!
Any suggestions will be welcomed!
Hi, I have a problem with my Mate 10 Pro. Every time I use my car's Bluetooth, I can't hear voice on incoming calls unless I switch to the phone speaker and then again to the Bluetooth system. The same goes for music as sometimes it switches randomly to the phone speaker and then I have to disconnect a2dp in my car and connect again. This is really annoying and frustrating. Any ideas how to solve this? Never had any Bluetooth problems with my previous phones.
Hi all
At work I use bluetooth headphones/headset for CALLS
So I am never wearing the headphones/headset unless I am on a PHONE CALL
My problem is that as bluetooth is connected only the phone call sound is coming from the phone - However none of my notifications are showing
Also bonus question (lol) - When someone calls me when im in a call it cuts me off for 3 seconds while the phone is telling me who is calling, how do I turn that off?
Can someone please help me with these issues
After a successful bluetooth connection (Audi Q8), the call sound is not from the car by default, but I always have to manually switch it to blueooth in call settings on ZF9. Even if I select the bluetooth sound on the phone during the first call, I have to do it again during the next phone call. It also happens when I make a call through the car display.
I tried pairing again several times, changing the bluetooth name of the phone and car, unsuccessfully. The problem persists and it is quite bad.
Does anyone have a similar issue? Or an idea for a solution?
Thx
