Sprint HTC Hero :: Car Stereo Hands-Free Bluetooth Errors
Nov 19, 2009
I have a Blaupunkt Melbourn car stereo with the Blaupunkt USB/Bluetooth Interface installed in my car and it used to work just fine with my Sprint Mogul and Touch Pro, but I can't seem to make it work with my Hero. When I pair the two, the radio only recognizes the Hero as an audio source and not as a phone. In other words, I assume I can stream music from the phone to the radio but I can't answer the phone with it. I should add that the connection icon shows up as audio headphones instead of a phone handset in the Bluetooth Devices screen.And this is just the opposite of what I need. I could care less whether I can stream music, but I need to be able to use the car radio as a hands-free device and as I wrote in the last paragraph, the radio worked perfectly in that capacity with my last two phones.So does anyone have any idea whether this is a phone problem or a stereo problem? Does anyone have any idea if there's a work-around? For that matter, does anyone have any helpful information at all?

I found this dock that is almost what I'm looking for, but I don't like FM transmitters. I prefer just to use a cable for the sound since it's clearer and I don't have to keep fiddling with stations when I get feedback. All the other docks that I've found are window mounted suction cup deals. Does anyone know of a dock that plugs into the cigarette lighter, but doesn't have the FM transmitter?

I was cleaning all the crap off my phone I don't use anymore and I believe I accidently removed the bluetooth software that allows it to connect to stereo bluetooth headsets. I can control the player with the headset, I can make phone calls from it, but when I try to play music there is no sound.
I was trying to reset the phone using RUU, but it reboots the phone and then says it cannot reconnect after that and the software shuts down. I can still sync with outlook, so my driver is not the issue. I am out of ideas.
Is there anyway possible to reinstall just the bluetooth portion of the rom?

Just got an N1 AT&T unlocked. Paired it with a Nissan 350Z bluetooth hand free. It pairs and the light on the car says it's connected. The N1 BT icon says is connected as well. When a call comes in, the car and the phone will both ring. When I pick up the call, either on the phone or the car, the system will switch to "phone" but the call always goes to the phone. I have only been able to actually use the car's handsfree once. Is anyone else having issues with their BT hands free in their cars. The other phones I had worked perfectly.

Is anyone having problems connecting their phone to a hands free kit? I get intermittent drop outs etc.
I connected with my phone to the hands free and it didn't even ask me for a passcode as it does with others.
So................the problem is that it sometimes connects and will then drop and will have to restart both devices.

I remember one of the sticking points last year for me, was the inherent problem in Android of Bluetooth support for Bluetooth Voice Dialling for true "hands free". Not to mention Bluetooth file transfer. I understand Android may still have a problem with Bluetooth voice dialing, or is this just problems with, I think it is, "Droid"?

I have been having an annoying problem whereby my phone takes somewhere between 2 and 10 or so minutes to connect to my car's hands free kit. The handsfree is a factory fit bluetooth unit in an Audi. I've had the car over 2 years and with my previous phones (SE W810i, K750i and C905) the connection was always made within 15 seconds of turning the ignition on. With the Desire it takes so long sometimes that I can have reached my destination before it connects!

I recently got a htc hero and I am very impressed with the phone and the os as a whole but I am having one small issue. I have a pair of bluetooth headphones and when I go to pair them I get an error that says "There was a problem connecting to NS-BTHDP." (ns-bthdp == headphone name). The weird thing is, the phone says its connect to phone audio, even though I never entered in the passcode. So I go and try to listen to music/podcasts and it plays through the speak phone.. but if I go to make a phone call it goes through the headset.I have no idea what the problem is, as these worked fine on my old gen2 ipod touch.Does the hero have limited bluetooth connectivity, or are the headphones not compatible? I would like to know more about the error, does android os have an error log that I can look at? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I havent been able to try this yet and i was just wondering if anyone else has. If you have the phone connected to a handsfree bluetooth system in a car and are also using the phone to play music via an aux input through the headphone jack will they both work? I am just wondering if the bluetooth connectivity will override the fact that you have something plugged into the headphone jack. I will be able to try this in a couple weeks when i get my car back, but wasjust curious if anyone else already has tried it.

I make a call and it connects but I can't hear them and they can't hear me. It doesn't matter if it is a incoming or an outbound call. Sometimes I have to power down the phone and turn it back on, the call then connects correctly. I'm totally bewildered!!! I have fresh 2.1.2/ a gumbo kernal.Any advice and help is greatly appreciated.

I recently bought a Back Beat stereo bluetooth headset for my HERO. After listening for a few days I got a warning stating that my internal memory was getting low. Soon after that, I could not receive text anymore. I did a hard reset on the phone and the memory was restored, but this is the only way I could get the memory to come back. Is there any way to restore the internal memory without doing a hard reset and loosing everything?

Found a few threads about people having problems transferring their phonebook to their hands free kit in their automobile. Had the same problem myself - was able to connect and pair with the car kit. I was able to make and receive calls, but didn't have the phonebook.
Then yesterday, while setting in the car, I was going to re-pair the connection between the phone and car I noticed that in the Notification Bar that the car was asking permission to receive the phonebook from the phone. Opened the Notification and granted permission and clicked on always grant access (or something similar). Phonebook was then transfered. Haven't had a problem with it since...

I was wondering if anyone could offer me some advice on which car stereo to choose. It doesn't look like there are many brands that officially support the HTC Hero's bluetooth functions. I want to be able to make and receive calls from the head unit or, at the very least, patch my phone calls through the car speakers for handsfree use. I would love to hear if anybody has managed to get their Hero working with any particular car stereo brand/model.

I'm using Modaco 2.0 and I used EncoderHD to encode some videos to watch on the bus to work.The conversion went great and a quick glance before I took off this morning showed a wonderful, smooth playback with no issues whatsoever.On the bus, I get as comfortable as one could get on a bus, flick on the Hero, start the "Album" and select my video... only to experience about 2-3 seconds of Audio/Video sync issues.what?It didn't take much testing to figure out that everything works great with the speakers and wired headsets but when I connect my bluetooth stereo headset (I have the Samsung WEP870 and the SE HBH-IS800) the sync issues start.Has anyone else experienced this or similair issues? Is there a solution? If not, do we think it's a solvable issue ( I don't have this issue on my Touch HD, but then again, the playback is far from being as smooth)

Will you be able to use a Bluetooth earpiece to do hands free dialing? I know this is a problem with the Incredible and the Moto Droid.

Found new app on the news this morning. So much fun! Totally hands free. Just search Google for AdelaVoice. Works good with chompSMS. Be sure to read the command page. Will even send voice text, but I haven't tried that yet. Still in beta but will be the bomb when it is finished!

I just published a Hands-Free texting app called Shout. Just say a phrase like "Text Doug With I am On My Way Home" and Shout will search your contacts for matches, confirm "Sending 'I am on my way home' to 'Doug Hansknecht', correct?". Simply tap the Big Green Yes button and you're done.
There's a video demo here:

I am looking for a bluetooth hands free car kit that can send stereo signal to car radio utilizing a wire to the aux input on the radio. I have a Motorola T-505 that does this with an FM signal, however I cannot get a clean FM frequency.

So I bought and Apple handsfree set (stereo headphones and mic) for the Droid. I can't seem to hang up on a call by clicking the mic. I can accept calls by clicking on the mic, but clicking on the mic while in a call seems to just mute the phone.That's a useful feature, but does anyone know how to hang up on a call using the Apple handsfree set on the Droid?

I am trying to establish Bluetooth connection between an Android device with other mobile phone over Handsfree profile. I am using following code -
Code:
private static final UUID MY_UUID = UUID.fromString("0000111F-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB"); // UUID for Hands free profile
// Some code...
// Get Bluetooth Adapter.
m_oBluetoothAdapter = BluetoothAdapter.getDefaultAdapter();
// Some code...
// For paired BT device, getting a connection established.
[code]....
I can create RFCOMMSocket using above code.
Now I want to send AT commands based on Bluetooth Hands-Free profile. e.g. If other mobile phone receives a phone call, my Android device can reject this call by sending AT command- "+CHUP". I am not sure whether this is possible or not.
At this point, I am stuck. I have read Bluetooth APIs where I found -
Code:
BluetoothHeadset.ACTION_VENDOR_SPECIFIC_HEADSET_EVENT
Can we use this Intent for sending AT commands? Is this a proper way to send AT command based on Bluetooth Hands-Free profile?

I went through all the settings and could not find a way to configure the phone to speak the SMS, the caller id, etc....when I am driving.
On my other phone, a samsung galaxy s3 from verizon with android 4.3, there is a "driving mode". I thought it was a true android capability, but could it be a samsung feature instead ?In any case how do I get the Nexus 5 with Android 4.4 to do the same ? can I get it to do it using an NFC tag...

This one seems to come out of left field, but the HTC Hero CDMA will also see an update that fixes GPS reboot and sluggish dialer issues.
