Answering a call via Bluetooth.

I have the 4s and the latest SW. I have the jay bird freedom 3 BT headset. While connected to the phone and in my ear and when a call comes in, it does not matter how I answered the call. I have to look at the phone and physically select the "audio device" and the my listed headset in order to get the call. Why does it not default to the headset when it is plugged in and connected?

Sounds like your headset is not paired properly with your phone. When a call comes in, does it ring through the headset? If not, you might want to try resetting everything. First, delete the bluetooth headset's profile from your phone, then turn bluetooth off. Follow this by resetting your phone: Press the sleep/wake button and home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release(ignore the slide to power off). Follow your headset mfg's directions to reset your headset. Once done, pair them both again.

Auto answering phone call via bluetooth

Yesterday, I had two incoming calls via blue tooth while driving. With my Droid X, it would answer automatically. With the S3, it did not. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Not sure why it would do that. You can try resetting your device. Sometimes that will clear up odd behaviour (nothing will be lost):
Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Silver Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen comes back up, see if the problem is resolved.
Cheers,

Want to make phone calls via bluetooth on my iPhone from iPad

I can link my Garmin GPS to my iPhone via Bluetooth and make or receive phone calls.
I would like an iPas app that provides the sametype functionality including:
Make calls
Receive calls
Look uphone numbers
Is this possible? Using what app?

There are a couple of Apps out there that will allow you to use a Google Voice phone number to make and recieve calls via the iPad. I'm not sure exactly what you are trying to do. If you are trying to replicate the Garmin / iPhone setup I don't think that is possible.
Google Voice setup - gvconnect and talkatone. (wifi)
Skype - I think that you can make phone calls via Skype and Wifi.
I don't have a clue as if it is possible to make a phone call over 3G via the iPad.

Can TP make calls via bluetooth phone?

I am able to tether my HTC Aria and HP Touchpad via bluetooth and can receive calls on the TP (pretty cool) but I cannot dial on the TP (select a contact) and get the phone to make the call.
Is this even possible or is it strictly a Skype feature?
I figure I am expecting too much since the TP is simply acting as an Bluetooth headset.
Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

Yup. I do it with my Samsung Env 3. I know a few phones won't work but a lot do. Give it a try.
You have to get the phone/dialer to use bluetooth instead of Skype in preferences.

6120c delay when answering a call with bluetooth h...

Hi,
I have a Nokia 6120 classic and a Jabra BT2010 headset. When using the headset, every time I answer a call I have a 3 second delay until I can hear anything.
During these 3 seconds I hear 3 beeps: one the moment I answer the phone, a second one a couple of seconds after that, and a third one just before I can start to speak.
Does someone have the same problem? Is this a firmware problem and will be fixed with a new firmware? I have firmware 3.83.

that is a bit strange, i have used Nokia BT headset BH-900, BH-201 and BH-600 on the 6120 and there is no delay...
it could be related to your headset... if there is a way to factory re-set that jabra? i had a jabra before, and it can be done if i remeber correctly,when you keep pressing volume up + power on for 10sec and watch the LED change color...

IPhone 3G S Flashing on incoming call via Bluetooth Kenwood KCA-BT100 incar

I used my iPhone 3G no problem with the in-car Kenwood KCA-BT100 linked through my sound and navigation system also Kenwood. Now when a call comes to my new iPhone 3G S it does not ring through the system, it just violently (it seems) flashes the phone then crashes the phone. Any similar experiences

I just replied to a similar post and I'll copy and paste my response here. I was having the same exact issue. Here is my possible fix.
Yesterday I updated the OS to the latest release. Then right after that I called AT&T and they reset my sim card. Or something like that. They did some sort of reset.
I then got in my car and drove around to test the phone. Because that is when the problem is worse. FINALLY they claim to be able to hear me clearly!!!!
I think it was the combination of both the OS update and the sim card reset that fixed it. Hopefully..... It has only been one day but so far so good. I'll update this post if things change.
Try this and let us know if this works for you.

IPhone 4 / iOS 6 drops bluetooth connection when I answer a call using handsfree link in car.

Honda Crosstour 2010. Handsfreelink and phone pair ok but when I go to answer a call via the talk button on the steering wheel, the connection drops and I have to use my phone to talk, rendering auto bluetooth useless. I have to manually reconnect the two to get car and phone bluetooth working again. Honda and Verizon both point to Apple as the problem...

Music through headphone jack + Calls through Bluetooth headset?

While driving, I usually have an internet radio app streaming music. My car stereo supports both bluetooth and normal aux plug input. I also have Bluetooth headset for calls. However, when I turn my BT headset on (a Jawbone ERA), all audio gets routed into my one ear — music, calls, GPS directions, Siri.
Is there any way to having music play to my car stereo (via BT or aux plug) and lettting my earpiece just handle Siri & telephone calls?

i've had my phone connected to my car stereo via the dock connector, and have been able to answer calls via bluetooth. so i would imagine it works the same way with the headphone jack.

Music through headphone jack, calls through bluetooth

Can I connect the iPhone to my car through the headphone jack to play music through my car stero, while at the same time having a bluetooth headset connected to send/receive calls?

Since I upgraded to IOS8, iphone has changed the way it calls via car bluetooth. Before (IOS8) once I hit 'call' it was transfer to car speakers and i would hear dial tone until answer. Now, call will only transfer to speakers once call is answered

Since I upgraded to IOS8, iphone has changed the way it calls via car bluetooth. Before (IOS8) once I hit 'call' it was transfer to car speakers and i would hear dial tone until answer. Now, call will only transfer to speakers once call is answered. This is very incovenient as I never know if my call is going through, and sometimes when call isn't answered immediately I have to look at my phone to cancel the call. Is there a new setting I am missing?

Sometimes you turn off your Bluetooth and then back on and it doesn't reconnect with your phone unless you go into the menu. Either way doesn't help much if someone calls you while you're driving and you realize your iPhone is stuck on headphone input.

My iphone 6 connects to the car via bluetooth, the music works good, but the phone calles does not work. It looks like it is working but doesn't. I have tried in my Hyundai and a Dodge rent car and get the same results. I updated the last 8.0.2.

My iphone 6 connects to the car via bluetooth, the music works good, but the phone calls does not work. It looks like it is working but doesn't. I have tried in my Hyundai Sonata and a Dodge Dart rent car and get the same results. I updated the last 8.0.2. It worked the first day i had the phone, and then i updated to Ios 8.0.2 and it quit working.
Now when i get in the car, it acts like it is connected and makes the same call it was on after syncing to bluetooth, but it really isn't on a call. This is happening on both cars.
Does anyone know if this is the phone and i need to take it to Apple or if there is an issue that Apple is working on getting a fix for?
My son in law has the exact same phone as me, we both got the on 10/6, he had a Dodge Dart and his is working via bluetooth.
Someone HELP please, as i consider this a safety issue by not having my calls go to bluetooth.

We had the same problem, but figure out the solution.
You MUST have at least 1 song added to your ITUNE! After you add a free song, then everything else should work as normal!
Hope this helps!

Can my MAC automatically Record Calls from my RAZR via BlueTooth ???????

Can my MAC automatically Record Calls from my RAZR via BlueTooth ?
That would be so cool !

well, that only possible if the call comes through the mac
if it was a landline, then you connect the phoneline into the modem, thru the software, then back out the modem and out to the phone. I have sucessfully done this on a windows machine
i suppose cellphones can be used as modems, so you could hook it upto the mac and then answer the call thru your mac's speakers and microphone...youll need to develop or find the appropriate software to this tho.
