Car bluetooth audio - Plays through the phones speaker - LG V20 Questions & Answers

I've just got the V20 and it links with my car OK for bluetooth. Works with calls. But for audio, it comes through the phones speaker. I can see the song name on my car dash and control it, pause, skip, etc. But it's not playing through the car's speakers. Any ideas?

Mine will do that occasionally for a minute or so, but then connects to my Kenwood and goes as expected. Have you checked the BT settings for your car?

Randomly happens to me too, but when it does, it'll stay playing through the phone until I do something about it. The only solution I've found is to completely disable the phone's bluetooth, then re-enable it and reconnect. Its very annoying! Glad to hear I'm not the only one though. I though something was going wrong with my car!!!

Thanks for the responses. I noticed this morning it had messed up sound playing through my external speaker until I rebooted when playing a video. I usually have my phone on android auto, so it's not an issue. But that's a battery killer, not recharger so I sometimes just plug it into the charger instead. Hopefully future updates will fix this!

[Q] Serious bluetooth issues

I'm running Mammon's 1.0.4 DK28. This isn't really important as it's happened w/ every DK28 ROM I've used and it's the most extremely frustrating thing for me.
It goes like this...
I have my phone synced to a jabra earpiece and to the radio in my truck (Clarion CZ500)
I don't use my jabra much but when I do, I get the same weird behavior as in my truck.
In my truck, I get bluetooth connected. I can hear sounds etc. from my speakers. I can stream Pandora, etc. and it works fine. I can make a phone call and it will connect, but no sound unless i switch to speaker, then back to bluetooth.. After I hang up, I can't get bluetooth to produce sound at all. I disable bluetooth and try to listen to music etc. from the external speaker and only get sound from the phone's earpiece. If I make a call, and put it on speaker, still no sound from external speaker, only from the phone's earpiece. Then, after completing a phone call, the phone is sitting idle and makes a popping sound from the earpiece.. random time intervals but still happens until I power cycle the phone.
Any ideas as to how or why this is happening ?? It's extremely frustrating.
Thanks

notifications while using bluetooth

Bought a Moto S10-HD headset, and it sounds great, but I noticed that when I get notifications, my music pauses like normal, but the notification sound gets played on the phone, and it's not passed along to the headset. Music resumes as normal after the notification. That doesn't happen when using the wired headphones, but if I'm using a bluetooth headset and I leave my phone in the other room, the only way I'll know if I get a notification will be the music pausing.
Any ideas?
It does that to me with my Car stereo when its hooked up via BT. It isn't really an issue for me since I am never far enough away from my phone where i don't hear the notification coming from the phone. I never thought about why it does this, but since you brought it up, I would love to know as well.
A quick google search shows that this is apparently the holy grail for bluetooth headphone users. However, I think the same thing happens with wired headphones as well.
I too, would like to know why and have it solved.
My stock wired headphones play the notification tone fine.
While I'm here, another thing I noticed is the system sounds that are played over bluetooth are somewhat quiet compared to music. That also doesn't happen on the wired headphones.

After disconnecting Bluetooth, Audio won't play off speaker

So I'm miffed! My brand new baby is giving me a Bluetooth nightmare. After I use it with Plantronics BackBeat Go 2 headset and disconnect the Bluetooth (even if I switch off Bluetooth), phone audio won't come thru the regular speaker. However, if I switch on the speakerphone, then audio works.
A restart fixes the problem. But it is super annoying. Anyone else experience the issue? Do you guys have an idea of how to fix this?
Until this, I've been super happy with my white 128GB baby!
You aren't crazy, I've had some similar problems. if you notice, when this issue is active and you try to turn your volume up, it'll show BT volume being changed instead of regular. For me, I can usually toggle BT on and off again to get it back to normal.

This also works for me. Still annoying though.
I don't know the tech verbiage perhaps a developer is best equipped however:
1. Connecting Bluetooth seems to cause the system to act stupid. I had found a video through MyVidSter which took me to Pornhub while on the toilet I figured I'd let it download as I proceeded to brush my teeth and take a shower (fresh, beautiful, and clean)
2. Next I connect my Bluetooth headsets and go to playback my video and it stalls gives error can't play.
3. Turn off device restart
4. WHAM, it finally can play the same video it couldn't just a moment ago.
5.I then disconnected and noticed my sound wasn't there when I went to YouTube to listen to a Formation.
6. I tried PowerAmp and the strangest thing the file played the song at like 256x very sped up! I could see the scrub bar moving along very fast!! No sound or video would play on YouTube or my photo gallery
7. I finally go to setting power on Bluetooth toggle for a few seconds then turned it off and finally videos sound and music without would play again.
8. My daddy Alabama.. Momma Louisiana... You mix that Creole with that negro make a Texas baaaammaaa

Having the same issue with LG HBS-810 Headset. If I turn off the headphones before I turn off Bluetooth on my phone, it's OK. If I turn off Bluetooth on my phone first, then no sound. Also, If I turn on the headphones first, then Bluetooth on my phone, they will not connect until I turn off and back on my headphones.
I seem to have the same issue on my Nexus 7 (2013) with Android 6.0.1, so I think it's a 6.0.1 bug.

No Bluetooth after call....?

Wierd issue. Use to work but not now. When I'm on Bluetooth and take or make a phone call on Bluetooth... And then after the call try and play media through Bluetooth, it won't have sound. Max volume. Shows as playing. But nothing. Not even through phone speaker. It's as if the dialer app didn't release the Bluetooth control after the call.
Only way to fix is to turn off Bluetooth and back on.
Anyway to fix?
I had this happen once or twice, but not recently. I use bluetooth in my car but my factory radio in my car only has BT for calls, not music. I have a small A2DP device that plays music through the AUX in on the radio. A few times if I took a call via BT for the car, when the call ended the music wouldn't resume. I'd go to Spotify and it showed as playing but no sound came out. I never tried resetting bluetooth because when I'm driving it's easier to just hold power until the phone reboots, then it works fine.
mine does it when I'm using the amazon music player, doesn't matter if I'm on a call or not. Every now and then it just stops sending audio to the radio. If I turn the phone on, the lockscreen shows that the song is playing, but zero audio.
If I pause / play / pause on the lockscreen it usually resumes playing. Very odd issue. Still better than the problems I was having with my note4.
I've seen this issue on android for years. I'll have the same issue if I say Okay Google and Google doesn't recognize what I say.

Randomly stopping Bluetooth output?

Sometimes my phone switches from Bluetooth audio to headset for no apparent reason. The device stays connected and I can choose my car in the audio path but it's an annoying habit the phones picked up. Anyone know of a fix?

Might be the new update. Since the new update if I'm playing music via Bluetooth it'll randomly stop playing. It didn't do this until the new update.

AI just picked this phone up yesterday and I have the same issues. A simple reboot seemed to fix it. I was at the gym and the Bluetooth kept cutting out. It wasnt cutting off, but rather out.
