Hi all

I have a Bluetooth Car Kit but it seems that bluetooth only works with phonecalls. I use a Internet Radio app and would like to route the audio through the car kit rather than having my SGS2 on the dashboard, listening via the onboard speaker.

C
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Northern-Loop:
Actually this is something I'd like to do as well. My car bluetooth shows as "Phone Audio" in BT settings if I could amend this Profile so it plays any music through the car this would be great!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tehpriest:
On the standard player if you press the menu button you get a "Via Bluetooth" option fo this.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Northern-Loop:
I've tried that but since the Bluetooth is listed as Phone Audio it wouldnt play through the BT

If I'm on a call and I play a MP3/or a text message comes through it plays over bluetooth audio.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drp:
I have the Motorola T505 car kit and route music (or phone calls) from my SGS2 to car's stereo speakers. Use pretty much every day to and from work; listen to Pandora or stored songs via Neutron player. Is this what you are ultimately trying to do?

My device has a push-button that syncs the device to a chosen FM channel; I then tune to this channel. The trick is finding one that offers lower static. Did not perform any other on-phone settings but can look tomorrow morning if helpful.

Sound quality could be better (much, much), but it's great to be able to hear my own selections.

Hope this helps.

I am particularly trying to use TuneIn (tunein.com) which streams radio stations over the net but there are a growing number of radio stations supplying Android and iPhone apps
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drp:
Hey, that's a cool looking app (just looked up); will be downloading.

Hmmm, I have not come across any BT audio device that does not support both voice and audio, and I have several. Does your car kit doc state that it supports both (and maybe FM pass-through)?

Regardless of FM pass-through, have you tried completely removing the paring and then repairing? Reason I ask is because I just flashed a new ROM and kernel to my phone, and when I paired the Sony HBH-IS800 earphone (my gym rig), it showed the paired-connected symbol but when I started music, it played though the phone speakers only. When I checked the profile, it read "Connected to phone." I then deleted the paring, rebooted for safe measure, and repaired. This time, the profile read "Connected to phone and media audio". Was the first time ever seeing this with a BT pairing.

Something to try at any rate....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Northern-Loop:
Look at my screen print - The BT shows as "Phone Audio" only.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drp:
As I was saying..... I've only seen one bluetooth kit that's phone only; the poster's screen shot above... Sorry sir, had never heard of Blueconnect (is it nice?).

I actually skipped over your post as was more responding to the OP, for which I am still uncertain which car kit is being used.

When shopping for a car kit, I keyed on the ones that advertised being FM transmit capable.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] championc:
TuneIn claim to support Bluetooth but there are a few posting on the web from other TuneIn users with this same issue. TuneIn suggested I speak to by BT device manufacturer - a device for which I have feck all details. It works fine for phonecalls and worked fine with music on a previous WinMo phone. I think WinMo had options to allow BT to be used for more than just phonecalls. There are very few (none !) options within the Bluetooth menu. Thought I might have been able to Long Press on a paired device to get into further options but :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Northern-Loop:
If the OT screen shots the same setting I guess it will say the same.

Nah its **** but its a company car and I had no choice.

Though if I can get it to play music through it I will be a happy chap :)

[General Questions and Answers] Imipenem2012:
Hey there, I am a physician and I work in a busy hospital. Sometimes there are too many things to do and too many patients to attend to. I prioritize and re-prioritize my visits and procedures all the time and it's not easy using paper notebooks. So I need a special app for my phone and tablet with some special features. The basics are very similar to a database-driven combination of a task manager apps and to-do list apps but there are some features which I need to be specialize, like patients lab tests and procedures. I wonder if there is a WYSIWYG software which helps me develop my own app without coding.

Really appreciate any useful suggestions.

There is googles app inventor which is very easy but it will close soon. Its an online programming environment for those who don't know programming languages and is how I started with android apps. Its nearest thing to what you are after I think.

I use basic4android now, very easy to use programming language if you don't mind learning it.

[General Questions and Answers] Imipenem2012:
Thanks a lot for the reply. I wish I had the time to learn a language like the one you mentioned but it's near to impossible for me. Even if I have a little time to spare on a daily basis, there are tons of new medical updates everyday and I prefer to read them, as they may help me, help patients. I will look at the google app inventor but it's a shame that it will be terminated soon :(

Thanks again for the reply
[General Questions and Answers] mistermentality:
I think google are making it open source so that others can offer it so it might not die just google will not offer it after a set date.

You could ask a developer to write an app for you, not sure what they would charge though.

[General Questions and Answers] FernBch:
How do you contact Google for Android App support? I have had issues with the search and youtube apps since the last update.

The FC issue in com.motorola.process.home when using search from the app xrawer is known about. I have also been having issues with the sound on my MoPho quitting after watching a video. As soon as I uninstalled the last uodate to youtube the issue has gone away.

What's tge deal? Does every update from google lately break something? I can't find anything for support other than a forum.

I'm a MoPho-er
[General Questions and Answers] SkitzoControl:
From what I know, their support is pretty robust, but they don't provide support if you have a rooted phone. The main support, they use like an email system a-la' "submit a ticket", and they also use a phone support system that required you to put in your info and the system calls you directly. Try support.google.com and check the links that you're having an issue with specifically, but I think the paid services, stuff like Market/Google Play, AdWords, etc. are the only ones that have an actual support team. They don't really support free services like YouTube or Gmail.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Suzook1:
Just curious to see how many have pre ordered and if you are moving from an international to the ATT version.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] planoman:
I have not preordered, but I am interested in the ATT version due to prevalent LTE where I live. I will wait to see all of the reviews and user feedback before getting one. I will most likely keep my current GNote since it gets updates from DBT and HSPA+ and battery life are great. I have a skyrocket that I will sell if I get the LTE version.

I did see a list of the apps that will be loaded on the ATT version and it is nice to have a version without all the bloat!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] zkyevolved:
What's the big deal about LTE? I live in Europe, and I just get HSPA+ so I can't comment about it, but do you guys really tether THAT much to require those kinds of speeds? :S Don't get me wrong, the faster the better, but I paid 535 euros for my unlocked device. I don't think I could shove out any more money for the same model with a different radio and minus a hardware button.

So ... do you tether THAT much? I have unlimited data and I have tethered all of 3 times and that's because ADSL was down for an hour. Lol. I'd imagine LTE on the actual phone doesn't make much of a difference while mobile browsing or emailing as they're such small packets.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] planoman:
I do not tether at all personally. I have a Verizon LTE myfi for my work laptop. LTE is quite prevalent hometown (Dallas- Fort Worth) and in my Homestate of Texas where most larger cites have it. I have an unlimited LTE plan and have a skyrocket. I love my International GNote and will keep this one and probably sell my skyrocket. LTE is quite fast (20-60 mbps) and if I am going to use the GNote as my full time phone, I want LTE. I video call with my children when traveling in Texas without having to rely on the hotel wifi or hooking up my work wifi. If I want to stream netflix I do it over wifi, since I do not want to hog the bandwidth.

Keep in mind this is my plan which is based on the LTE version here having stellar reviews. As far as the cost, I do not have many others hobbies since I have young kids and a wife lol! My wife is understanding of my phone & watch addictions. Besides, if she is really good, she may get my International GNote to try out!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] carhigh:
There is a att note forum now. Go look there for all the preorders threads. There are plenty.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ericshmerick:
I have unlimited on an international Note. It is very easy to hit 2 gigs on HSDPA. With ATT sending out texts to those who use as tether as little as 2 gigs, I'm not sure if the LTE model is for me. I'd hate to lock in a contract only to have ATT breathing down my neck if I actually use LTE. Surely flying past 2 gigs would be very easy at those speeds. No thanks.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] planoman:
2 gigs? In DFW, I think the LTE texts start at around 5 gigs. 2 gigs would suck. That is not hard to do at all on hspa+ Seems wifi is everywhere where I live. I do agree the gigs can fly by faster on LTE. I have considered the new 5 gig plan with tethering but 50 bucks...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] andrawer:
yes preordered att note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
Oh helllllll no!!! LTE without unlimited access (and by unlimited, I mean truly unlimited; no throttling) is a joke! Forget about it! I'm not interested! Plus, supposedly I was throttled over my last billing period, and honestly, I didn't even notice it. Was still getting ~3mbit on HSPA+, which is plenty fine for most stuff anyway. Burned through about 6gigs of data last period. No tethering either.

Plus Exynos is a beast. Seriously...

Question: If you already have a VZW LTE hotspot, A) are you grandfathered into unlimited data with VZW? and B) why not just keep your international Note and use the hotspot for when you need the extra bandwidth?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] got556:
Exactly what I plan to do. :D I have two grandfathered unlimited lines on VZW. So I'm going to do the Straighttalk $45 no contract deal and just wifi my Note from my hotspot off my RAZR. Just trying to decide if I want to buy a white Note or black Note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
Sounds like a good plan to me! I would avoid the AT&T version though, seriously. AT&T are a bunch of d!ck$ when it comes to unlocking their devices, using them in ways they didn't intend, and oh yeah, they still put Carrier IQ on their stuff AFAIK, so the AT&T Note will likely have that too. Not to mention, the discounted price only applies for a renewed 2-year agreement anyway, so you're either locked into that for another 2 years, or you're stuck with an ETF. Either way, they're gonna recoup the cost one way or another. Being that as the case, you're really just better off importing another unlocked Note and going pay-as-you-go on that $45 plan from Straight Talk ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] planoman:
I always get a kick out of your posts! The Verizon Mifi is through a corporate account so I do not know if it is unlimited. I do plan to keep my International Note! I have a skyrocket as my primary phone (I swap SIM's every week or so) I love my GNote and figure I can sell the skyrocket and get the LTE GNote. I do not want to give up my International with all the aspects of having unlocked and updates. I also just love the LTE Network and figure I will love it more with a GNote!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
Why thank you good sir! I must admit that I do try being a bit edgy while remaining helpful, and of course telling it like it is! ;)

Well, in that case, frankly you don't need to know! You're not paying the bill, so it's not your problem LOL!!! Consider it part of your "benefits package" ;)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
*sigh* Perhaps this is an appropriate time to breathe life back into an old thread of mine explaining why you should always buy unlocked, and why buying subsidized devices hurts competition and consumer choice...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jwood55812:
Once people say this about buying unlocked "But remember, the carrier will recoup the cost of selling you a discounted device over the term of your service agreement, so you're gonna pay some way or another anyhow. " I stop reading because it makes no sense.

How does ATT recoup the cost of selling me a diiscounted device over the 2 years? I have a couple options...

A) Buy a phone for $299, and then for the next 24 months pay for my Family Plan including 550 minutes, Unlimited Text and Unlimited Data for both lines, after corporate discount, I pay roughly $135/month, or $3240 for the plan + $299 for the phone, a total of $3539

B) Buy an unlocked phone for $699, and then for the next 24 months STILL pay for my Family Plan including 550 minutes, Unlimited Text and Unlimited Data for both lines, plan totalling $3240 over the 2 years, and the phone being $699, so a total of $3939

In the end, who paid $400 MORE over the course of two years? You did. You said it yourself, especially in the US, what am I supposed to do, switch to T-Mobile and deal with a) crappy service in my area and b) different radio frequencies potentially limiting my data speeds? Goto a regional carrier with again, crappy service in my area?

When you say it's ALWAYS better to buy unlocked, you're plain wrong. As much as you don't want to hear it, you bought your 7.7 Tab from AT&T, and agreed to the Terms of User when you signed the contract, if you didn't think it was fair at the time, you shouldn't have entered the contract, simple as that. It may work out for you to buy International, but you can't make that blanket statement for everyone.

/rant off
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
Or you can spend $50/month for unlimited everything on a pay-as-you-go plan and save yourself $2040 over the course of 2 years for one device. If your family plan has two lines on it (judging by your monthly cost), and say you bought two unlocked Note's, (So, $100/month x 24 months = $2400 + 2 Note's @ $700 each, brings you up to a total of $3800 over 2 years) you're still saving about $140, plus you're getting all the added benefits of owning an unlocked device, as described in my article. Also, this assumes you never sell your Note when you get tired of it and want to upgrade. You can further reduce the long-term cost by selling your device when you want to move on. Nearly two years after I got my old Galaxy S, I was still able to sell it for about $300 and some change.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] maltrin:
I preordered Sunday afternoon.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] slaydog:
Shenanigans... I'm sure this option wont last forever...

Plus, I have 2 lines with At&t for about $50 per month each and unlimited data. You can't convince me that I'm stupid to get a $400+ discount on the phone... Not gonna loose sleep over the different processor either, lol, so dont even try it...:eek:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] slaydog:
Although, to be fair, after re-reading the OP it does seem a little crazy to get the At&t version if you already own the international version... ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] slaydog:
Holy Cow, he's right! Sorry for cluttering up this forum.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jwood55812:
Agreed I could go pay as you go, but where will give me what you described for $50? (Honest question) and even more to the point, where can I get that with LTE? For me the LTE is a no brainer in future proofing myself, much more so than any of the benefits of buying unlocked. People keep saying HSPA+ is "good enough" but if that were the case, we would have stopped internet at 1Mbps down, and not be pushing for faster because "who needs webpages to load that much faster"?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tbran:
Very valid points Plano. I admit that while I am aiming to somewhat future-proof with the I-717, you may be totally correct and this device will actually miss the "heart" of the early LTE adaptation, due to the factors you address very accurately. But thats the chance we always take with the latest and greatest.

I am sure the att version will be cracked in no time allowing custom roms
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
That's all well and good, but unless someone finds a way of being able to change their IMEI, it's not totally going to matter because AT&T will still be able to track you. That's what they did to me with my old GTab 7"

Also, as it turns out, even deleting the contents of your /efs folder isn't a totally valid solution, because you won't always get 3G service that way, even when it's available in your area.

For example, I had driven from DC to Detroit, and for that trip I had with me my unlocked international GS2 and my cracked AT&T GTab 7" with /efs wiped. For about 90% of that journey, my GS2 had 3G service, except in some back country areas of PA. My cracked AT&T GTab with /efs wipe on the other hand, basically never had 3G service except for when I was in DC, and again when I finally got to Detroit.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jwood55812:
Thanks for the post Jade Eyed Wolf, I totally hear you about how LTE is all well and great, until you get throttled that is, I'm in the same grandfathered situation, so i know exactly what you mean. You had talked about $50 unlimited pay as you go plans though, any info on who those are? Virgin Mobile, Straight Talk etc? I'm all about paying less money and the girlfriend just reupped at ATT, so in 2 years things could be different, but always looking for a way for it to be cheaper!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
GoPhone and Straight Talk are two that come to mind. Just make sure that whatever you go with uses AT&T's network (for compatibility reasons). Avoid absolutely everything else.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] technillion:
Still at a cross roads...

You guys make some really great points but I'm still at a cross roads here about switching to the ATT NOTE.

I moved from the Dell Streak 5 to an unlocked NOTE back in November. NOW, I can get the ATT NOTE and sell my unlocked NOTE and put some money back in my pockets! :p

Since the ATT NOTE has LTE, is that worth it for me in Chicago?

I know folks who have LTE and love the speed but they tell me the connectivity hasn't improved -- which is huge because I commute on the trains from downtown Chi to North Shore suburbs and can't get a consistent connection NOW on the unlocked 3G NOTE during my trips back and forth. I'm hearing that won't change with the ATT NOTE on LTE.

So first, I'll lose the freedom to load/unload ROMs until ATT ROMs start getting cooked. Then, ATT is notoriously SLOW with updates (nightmare with every ATT phone owned). Finally, I'm reading that I will want to upgrade from my 2 gig limited data plan due to the speed change...which will cost me more money?

decisions...decisions
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
I would argue that, if anything, not only will you not likely get any better signal with the LTE Note, but due to the added complexity involved with having an additional radio, you may even experience poorer performance. The only exception I could see is that AT&T's LTE uses 700mhz, which carries better than the 850 and 1900 mhz used for UMTS/HSPA+. But even then, LTE is only for data at this point. Carriers have yet to deploy VoLTE (Voice over LTE), so you're still relying on the legacy network infrastructure for all your basic voice and SMS services.

In the end it's up to you to decide whether having a few extra bucks in your pocket in the short term is worth the headache associated with dealing with a carrier locked device in the long term. ;)
