Android :: How To Make Android Phone As A Bluetooth Headset?
Jul 2, 2010
I know Android has already implemented the Blue tooth Headset Profile, but it is in Audio Gateway Role, not in Head Set Role. What I want to do is develop an application on Android phone which will act as a blue tooth headset, so it can connect to my laptop by blue tooth. When I try to call somebody, I can use my phone to dial him, and my application will forward the voice through blue tooth to my laptop, and one other application running on laptop will get the voice data and forward them to Skype or G Talk or some VoIP program else. In other words, how can I implement the Headset Profile in Headset
Role on Android phone?

[Q] Is there a way to setup your phone or an APP to make your phone push all of the notifications to your bluetooth headset for example email, sms, mms, alarm? All I get right now is the phone call. SCH-I605

I am a new SE user and am still getting to grips with using the phone's features. Could anyone advise how to transfer a call from a headset back to the phone and phone to headset? Whilst I am asking inane questions, is it possible to use the phone i.e. return to menu when in a call?

My phone is having trouble transferring my contacts from the address book to the cars Nav system. Oddly enough, it worked once and never again. For some reason, it is only able to transfer 2 random contacts off of my phone, and stops there. For reference, it worked perfectly with my Blackberry and other non-Android phones. Here is some information:
Phone: HTC Evo 4g
Software version: 1.32.651.6
Car: 2010 BMW 650i (comes with iDrive)
I have tried un-pairing and re-pairing the phone and it hasn't behaved any differently. I noticed the phone recognizes the car as a Bluetooth Headset, which I suspect may be causing a problem. I have also tried changing the phones Bluetooth name. When I look at my Blackberry, it says the BMW supports the following services: Handsfree, Object Push, AVRCP. The Blackberry recognizes the car to be different from a normal headset.

Is there anyway to use an Android phone as a bluetooth headset for the Galaxy Tab (or any Android tablet for that matter)? im planning on getting T-Mobile's prepaid Android 2.2 phone and i want to keep my minute usage down by using Google Voice on the tablet. And since they both have bluetooth capabilities it should be possible to use it in this manner, right? I do not want to use one of those hideous, uncomfortable bluetooth headsets because im already going to have a bluetooth device (the phone) with me that im more comfortable using. Is there any way to do this or an app that enables this functionality?

I currently am able to connect my android phone to my computer (via bluetooh) to transfer files but I want to be able to use my computer headset to receive/dial calls to/from my phone. This would be just like I can already do in my car over bluetooth.

1. Will a stereo Bluetooth headset work for listening to Pandora on the Eris? I ask because I saw one thread in which somebody said "No Bluetooth for anything other than telephone sound" on the Eris.
2. If it will work, any recommendations such a headset? I'm no audiophile, so my main issues would be comfort and battery life.

I have a Galaxy Note 2 and can't figure out how to record via my bluetooth headset not via the phone mic. Tried 20+ apps that record great via the phone mic but not via my headset.

When I had my Voyager, I could use my bluetooth earpiece to talk on the phone, and also get the audio from the Navigation to come through the earpiece. I was surprised tonight that when I was using my GPS on the Droid it didn't come through my earpiece which resulted in me turning my radio down significantly so I could hear the phone.
I also have a stereo bluetooth headphones that I already paired and see the icon on the screen, but when I play a video or some music, it doesn't come through the headphones. Its still coming out of the Droid's phone speakers. Its showing that it is connected in my notifications bar too.

I write a sample code to discovery a Bluetooth headset(jabra BT2035). referece http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/wireless/bluetooth.html#DiscoveringDevices
But it can only discovery my notebook computer. If my notebook computer enables Bluetooth and sets Enabling discoverability.
The SDK document snippet:
android.bluetooth.device.action.FOUND"
public static final String ACTION_FOUND
Since: API Level 5
Broadcast Action: Remote device discovered.
Sent when a remote device is found during discovery. I think the remote device means a remote notebook computer except a Bluetooth headset. Could someone please help with this?

I have a Motorola bluetooth headset and with my old Storm I could push the button on the headset and it would say "Say a command" from here I could say "Call John Doe mobile" and it would call him up. Haven't figured out how to make this work on the Droid in the same manner natively. Is it possible or is there an application. Purpose of bluetooth is to be hands free. Its not very hands free if I have to pull my phone out my pocket to dial the number first to be able to use the headset.

I met a problem of bluetooth headset. I want to switch audio playing to bluetooth headset when bluetooth headset is paired. I found BluetoothDevice in android sources which can control bluetooth. However it is not contained in android.jar. So I used AudioManager.setBluetoothScoOn(true)
But it still can't work.

I am facing a problem with Bluetooth Headset and KeyCharacter Mapping. When I press play/pause button from Samsung sbh-, its not getting reflected in Phone. I traced and came to know that, normally scan code of 164, keycode of 85 is formed when i press Headset play/pause. And PhoneWindow manager will intercept this and send ACTION_MEDIA_BUTTON if keycode =85 (KeyEvent.KEYCODE_MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE). But keycode that I'm getting is 0 even when i press headset play/pause in PhoneWindow Manager. Even in KeyInputQueue, the keycode that is obtained is 0. Does anybody when keycode gets generated?

I am writing an android app for storing and managing voice memos with some basic metadata and tagging.
When recording sound I use:
CODE:...................
This works well when using the phone in a normal fashion. However, it does not detect the presence of a bluetooth headset and still uses the phone's own microphone even when the headset is plugged in.
I also tried using MediaRecorder.AudioSource.DEFAULT, hoping it would automatically choose the correct source, but then no sound was recorded at all.
How can I a) detect if a bluetooth headset is plugged in and/or b) use a bluetooth headset as audio source for the media recorder?

On my phone, a dev phone, the bluetooth headset service is always running even though bluetooth connectivity is disable in the Settings app. Is this normal?
The ear speaker is not emitting any sound for maybe two weeks now, even if the on-call sound level is at max (5), so I'm checking a few things before I try to send back the phone for repair or exchange.

I'm new to Bluetooth programming and I was wondering if I had a Bluetooth headset that was paired to an Android phone. What's the best way to detect that a button was pressed? Are there modifiers to tell which kind of button it was (e.g. volume up/down, main button) or what kind of press it was(regular, long press etc).

Basically my Samsung Galaxy S2 gives me unlimited calls to mobiles/landlines and I want to make A LOT of calls throughout the day. I have a plantronics pro uc bluetooth headset which syncs up with my phone. I can send SMS and remote access the phone (too slow and clunky to make calls fast and simply).
What I want to be able to do is dial a number from my computer and my phone start call it. Essentially just want the phone on my computer. Paste a number in/dial it etc... click a link and the app/whatever call it.
(P.s. a remote desktop is not the solution as it is too slow - I tried that with MyMobiler. I have a skype number and can pay a small fee for unlimited landline calls but would have to pay for mobiles so this isnt a solution either).

In my understand, Anroid app supports only SPP connection not HFP and A2DP. However, I want to initiate HFP and A2DP connection in Android app just like selecting Bluetooth device in Bluetooth Settings menu. I'm not sure it is possible to use a intent including BluetothDevice object, so the intent receiver can initiate HFP and A2DP connection. If you have a idea, could you let me know that?

Using Android 2.0 SDK. Is it possible to direct the TTS engine's output to a connected BT headset? I've tried with KEY_PARAM_STREAM set to all of the available stream types but the speech is still output by the speaker on the phone.

I didn't find an API to detect if a Bluetooth A2DP is connected. Can somebody point me out how to check? It looks like if I route audio to Bluetooth A2DP without check, the sound will be routed anyway, and the speaker is turned off.

if it was possible to route audio files from the phone to a bluetooth headset on versions of Android API Level 7 and under (so versions older than the new Froyo) If so, do you know of any sample code I could look at to figure out how to do this? Or perhaps just point me in the right direction?

I see another post on this but it's a little outdated so I'm hoping there has been a recent development.Looking for a way to transmit audio from media (music, movies, audiobooks...not phone calls) to my standard bluetooth wireless device, which is not A2DP.This worked perfectly with no tweaks on my enV Touch so clearly it isn't a hardware issue, which by extension means there should be a software workaround, possibly in the form of a downloadable App.Anything that would work is cool though registry edits, whatever, I just desperately want to listen to audiobooks at work without buying a new headset!
