Bluetooth car stereo/Sat Nav issue.

I use my Hero in the car for sat nav, using Copilot. I also connect it via bluetooth to the stereo to give me hands-free calling.
The problem I have is that when I do, the sat nav voice doesn't come out of the speaker of the phone, but is routed to the stereo. I can hear it when I select bluetooth as the source on the stereo, but this means that I can't listen to the radio/CD/ipod and hear the sat nav directions.
I used to have exactly the same issue using TomTom on Windows Mobile, however there was an option there when it connected to the stereo to only use it as a headset, not for wireless music. I can't seem to find this option on the Hero.
There is also the known issue that the Hero doesn't support transfer of contacts over bluetooth - that's annoying but I can live with it, however the problem above is a real pain. Any ideas?

Think I found it - once you have paired a device, click and hold it under Bluetooth settings, then you have the option media - unclick this and all should be well! Still need to test it though.

Another method,
On my bluetooth car stereo I can "discnct Audio" seperately from "discnct Handsfree" and "discnct Phone"
Just FYI.

GPS sounds gone from speaker when using A2DP bluetooth headset

Hi all,
I have a HTC Touch HD and I am using both Destinator and NDriver navigation programs.
Recently, I purchased a bluetooth headset (HTC BH M300) which supports A2DP.
Now, in top bar icons, I have another icon displayed, indicating the ability to stream music. I have a problem though…
All my device sounds (except of the incoming calls of course) are now streamed to the headset. When I use the navigation programs, the voice with directions come trhough the headset and not the speaker (like when I was using a non A2DP headset).
This is annoying because I don’t like having to wear the headset at all times while driving. I need to hear to the driving directions through the speaker and talk with the headset when in a call.
Is there a way to solve this?

Go to start/settings/connection/bluetooth and on your a2dp bluetooth headset uncheck set as wireless stereo , to remain only set as headset device

[Q] ar Bluetooth and S Voice

So, I received my new S4, and paired it with my car Bluetooth. I found the setting in locations to tell the phone when I am connected to this Bluetooth, I am in the car. Great! When it connects to the Bluetooth, it initialises S voice, so it can be controlled with voice. That is when the problem begins....To use the voice feature, the phone needs to hear my voice, but because it is connected to the car Bluetooth, the phone mic is off, waiting for input from the car mic. But you cannot access the car mic unless a call is being made! Any ideas anyone??? Please?:crying:

[Q] How to disable automatic start of music when connected to BT

Everytime My Galaxy S5 (G900F) is connected to my inbuilt BT handsfree in my car (Skoda Octavia) music player is turned on automatically and it starts to play music. (I cannot hear music because car audio has selected Radio mode not BT audio)
Do you know how to disable it please?
It is not possible to disable it in settings of BT, Music Player, Car Mode, Sounds. I dont want to disable BT audio at all, because I sometimes use it.
Thanks
Michal

This maybe something to do with your car kit or settings? I don't have that problem when connecting to my factory fitted car kit.
Try the "places" setting in "location settings" and use the BT connection to tell the phone you are in the car.

Places were already done - Car via BT connection as you suggested. Not solved

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Sorry for my poor english, once connected go to bluetooth settings and select the option of your connected car (the gear symbol on the right) once there uncheck the multimedia option.

No problem, but I know about this option. As I wrote "I dont want to disable BT audio" because I sometimes use it There must be another way to disable it

Ok Google detection on headsets not working

Hi! i'm having trouble activating the "ok Google" hotword via any headset, i have had tried wired headsets and bluetooth, the phone only listens through the built in mic, can't get the activation through the headset mic... Any suggestions?
Google Pixel 5"
Android 7.0.2
Google app 6.16.33.21
Say "Ok google" any time - ON
Trusted Voice - ON
Hands-free for bluetooth devices - ON
Hands-free for wired devices - ON

Check the settings of the bluetooth device itself. I believe you need to have "Phone audio" checked.
I know this works on mine, through my car. I've not tried it with just a headset though.
