Bluetooth music quality issues

I recently had a JVC KD-R810 installed in my Jetta. The A2DP connects and audio is transmitted but the quality is horrible! At first I thought the new unit blew my speakers but when I switch the imput to CD my speakers are fine at all volumes. Does anyone know why I have these sound issues? Does all A2DP sound this bad?

I really hope Mitchell, but I'm afraid that JVC will say that the issue is with the iPhone Bluetooth profiles...I spoke to one of my colleagues in IT, and he was basically saying that when the Auto-Connect is turned on on the radio, it uses whatever Bluetooth profiles that is pushed by the iPhone, which seems to push the Phone profile first, then A2DP for audio and finally AVRCP (not sure of this one but that's the one that allows you to skip tracks for example).
When the AutoConnect feature is turned off and you select to get the A2DP profile from your iPhone by selecting ''Connect Audio Device'' on the radio, it obviously connects first, then the Phone profile connects as well. This seems to be why we encounter that behaviour.
I don't expect this to be resolved any time soon...so either you use the workaround described now, or you use the AutoConnect feature with a USB iPod cable so your music doesn't get distorted and you benefit from Bluetooth handsfree communication.
But it's a shame that this wasn't tested out further and addressed by Apple and car audio manufacturers.

Any news, or even recognition, on the iOS 5 music quality issue?

Ever since iOS 5 I can't listen too most songs on my Ipod because the bass is all distorted and the music quality is simply poor. I have tried removing the songs and adding them back on, but nothing works. Has Apple even recoginised this issue?
Many thanks.

I have the same exact problems. I have a passcode on mine and it doesn't flow as smoothly anymore. It takes more than the usual time before my upgrade for my touchscreen to realize I typed in my code. I have yet to use App problems because I only use certain ones on a daily basis and it's only a quick login, but my music keeps glitching. Initially, I can play a few songs before it'll freeze on artwork or on landscape and not respond to anything I do. This leads to me turning on the screensaver, but it'll stop the song playing and lock up. Afterward, once I open it back up, it has returned the last song I played before using it.
Yesterday, it did this but instead of the usual, it actually blacked out and wouldn't respond at all. I held the reset buttons down and it came back on after a long boot up. Continued to lag. This worries me even though my iTouch is only a year old, but I was unable to renew my coverage. Hopefully we can have a software update or bug fix before it shortcircuits something.

Bluetooth + Music Sync Issue

My First issue is with Bluetooth.
When I am calling a contact from my address book their last name is appearing twice. For example John Smith would appear in my cars infotainment as John Smith Smith. Meanwhile, in the contacts I only have John Smith as the name.
Next problem is Syncing music from Link to my Z30.
First issue, is randomly songs fail to sync unable to figure out the reason for this, the annoying part is after I find out they failed I can't even retry, i basically need to re-select every song. Worst part is, sometimes it gets stuck in a loop where I need to unplug phone, and restart link.
Other times, it is syncing, in Itunes and in Link the artist/track information is available. I sync it to my phone and low and behold it shows up as unknown. Again extremely frustrating.
Please figure this out!!!

It's possible that the audio files that were supported on your PC are simply not supported on your Mac or iPhone. For example, I found the following listed as the supported formats for iPhone 5:
"Audio formats supported: AAC (8 to 320 Kbps), Protected AAC (from iTunes Store), HE-AAC, MP3 (8 to 320 Kbps), MP3 VBR, Audible (formats 2, 3, 4, Audible Enhanced Audio, AAX, and AAX+), Apple Lossless, AIFF, and WAV
User-configurable maximum volume limit"
If you have music of other formats or codecs then you will need to convert them to a supported format first.
I hope this helps get you started.

Models with high quality Bluetooth music streaming

I was planning on buying an e70 with ck20w for bluetooth music streaming but i found a thread on this forum mentioning that E70 streaming has poor quality.
Can you inform me what models have the capability of stereo high quality bluetooth streaming?

Have you tried deleting the device, setting the volume high on the phone and pairing again?

Quality issues with slideshows

Hi,
I'm a long term user of PE v9 (basic editing & burning of home vids & slideshows), but I've just bought a new computer & upgraded to Photoshop & PE v11.
The first slideshow I created (created in Photoshop & exported to PE for adding music, titles etc) had a lot of issues:
Some of the photos were rotated 90 degrees & stretched (which I noticed & cut out prior to burning), but more importantly,
The end product once burned to DVD is of terrible quality.
I seem to recall that when I first set up PE 9 I set a project quality standard that all future projects would follow unless I changed it. I've looked everywhere in PE 11 & I can't find where this is set. I'm not overly technical and I'm out of ideas re: where to look to fix these quality issues.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Cozzie.

Hi Apple Miga,
I've spent literally hours on this trying all sorts of combinations of settings and ways & means of initiating a slideshow. To my surprise & absolute elation, I finally had a partial win late last night. I finally got the quality of the slides to be as good as I've been getting for years with PrE v7. I haven't been able to work out the rotation & stretching of some photos yet, but I'm at least I've got good quality on the photos that didn't rotate (which is the bulk of them).
Here's what I did, triggered by a comment above by VDOSurfer (thankyou VDOSurfer). I had actually already tried setting the project settings to DV-PAL (instead of AVCHD-PAL which I'd been using successfully with PrE v7) a couple of times with the same poor results, but I tried it again in a different order as follows:
Open PrE11.
Select 'New Project' (ie not existing project)
Once the new project opens up, select File, New Project (from the file menu at the top of the screen)
Click on 'Change Settings' at the bottom of the dialog box. I noticed here that my settings were always defaulting to NTSC/AVCHD 1080p60. So I changed this to PAL/DV Widescreen 48kHz (I live in Australia, so if you're in the US, I guess you'd select NTSC/DV Widescreen 48kHz).
Click on the checkbox 'Force selected project settings on this project'.
Click on Add Media
I added my slideshow from Photoshop because I'd already prepared it in that product, but you should be able to add it from wherever your photos live.
Click on Publish+Share, select DVD & Disk, ensure PAL_DOLBY_Widescreen DVD is selected. (If you're in the US, this would be NTSC).
Burn as normal.
This worked very well for me. Hope it helps. Please let me know how you go.
If anyone has any thoughts on how to stop the random rotation & stretching, I'd love to hear. Note that photos that are rotated & stretched start off in the correct rotation in Photoshop Elements v11 prior to exporting to PrE 11.
Thanks,
Cozzie.

Flash PLayer Audio Quality Issue

Howdy,
I am having a strange issue where I am hearing quality issues in the playback of sound on any flash content (youtube etc ..). The background music or backing tracks all play fine, but the Vocals / Voices in the video are quiet and distorted. The best way to explain it is, that I can hear the music on a music video ... but the words that the artist is singing aren't there.
Strange ....
I am running Windows 7 64-bit prof. on a brand new machine.
i7 X980X
12 gig memory
Realtex onboard sound from an EVGA X58 motherboard.
I have tried clearing and re-installing the installs, codec packs ... etc ... additionally this problem is present any time I play flash content in any browser or with a stand alone flash player.
Also, my sound works fine in games and local audio. And it passes all the surround sound tests, so I am sure the cables are hooked up appropriately.
Any thoughts ?
Thx !

Sadly, none of those seemed to help.
I was able to track down the issue. I have a new graphics card, and GTX 580
with HDMI support. It also installs an audio driver so it can pull out the
audio and send it out the HDMI port to a monitor with speakers / TV .. etc.
Once I disabled those drivers, everything started working normally. It was
some very strange symptoms.
Thanks,

Bluetooth Headset / Earpiece Issues

My Jawbone bluetooth earpiece worked well with my original iPhone and 3GS but does not with the new iPhone 4. I heard bluetooth was an issue but I am only reading about tethering and phone to phone noncompatability. I heard it doesn't work with FaceTime either.
I just want to be able to use it with a phone call. It randomly drops and reconnects, etc. Very unreliable. I have had my phone since June and do not even carry my earpiece around with me anymore. Any info or news on this issue and a firmware update?

I've been having this same issue since I bought the iPhone 4. I'm really disappointed! I don't think I'll buy another iPhone for issues like this. I've spent a lot of money on the earpieces that I like to use and NONE of them give me good results with the phone.
I really would not expect an issue like this to go on for so long. This iteration of the iPhone has rendered my investments in high quality earpieces worthless pieces of junk.

S705 Bluetooth music streaming auto-answers incomi...

I've got a Motorola Soundpilot S705 Bluetooth music streaming device which I use with my N95 8Gb to stream music (obviously). It generally works fine, but for some reason, calls are automatically answered when the device is active and I do not want it to do this.
I have checked my settings and the device is not set to auto-answer.
My Nokia Bluetooth earpiece works fine without auto-answering calls, which made me presume that the problem lies with a feature on the S705, however Motorola insist that the device does not have a feature/ option for auto-answering calls and that the problem is with the N95 8Gb itself.
Any ideas how I can resolve this issue?

I have the same issue, but I am using a Blueant Z9i wireless headset, on a N95-8g
No matter what I set the option to it still auto answers...drives me crazy.
Tried deleting the device in bluetooth and reseting the bluetooth headset itself.
I called Bueant support, and they stated that was not a problem they have seen.

Poor On Call Audio Quality issue

Hi guys,
Im aware everyone has issues while listening to music via the headphones as i have that too. Thats something i can live with.
However, what i cant live it is poor on call quality issues without the headphones. The other person on the call doesnt sound all that loud, clear n crisp to me. I keep having to press the phone more towards my ear to hear them louder and better. Its sub par. Its worse than any phone ive used.
I just switched from an iPhone to this and im very dissappointed.
NOKIA PLEASE FIX THESE AUDIO QUALITY ISSUES!!! This needs more addressing than the battery issues..

Happens to me on Lumia 800 (12070). Usually at the beginning of the call I can hear the other party well but the call quality seems to degrade slowly over the course of the call. I've tried pressing the phone closer to ear and going volume up or down but in some points of the call I have really hard time hearing what they're saying. Then it goes away and I can hear well again. It's not so much volume issue rather than the call getting really unclear.

Notifications Interrupt Bluetooth Music Playback

When my iPhone 5, on iOS 7.0.6, is in silent mode, certain incoming notifications pause Bluetooth music playback and force me to restart playback manually. Anybody else having the same problem, or know what's going on?

Dear @hutruk,
We have tried this and faced the same issues as you have. Unfortunately we haven't found why this happens. We think it has got something to do with the BlueTooth signal, but Apple would know more about this.
If you get an official reply from them, please post here.
Kind Regards

Anyone else notice a drop in music quality after IOS5?

I updated to IOS5 and immediatley noticed a significant drop in music quality and other little issues. All my album art was gone, the music volume was reset back to default and the quality was simply terrible. I have not had time take everything off and put it back on yet.

So I just got it to work! I uninstalled itunes, restarted the computer, then opened apple updates. The newest version of itunes was included in the updates. After the update downloaded itunes opened and magically everything is back! Well except for the ringtones I made on mobile17 app. Still trying to figure that out, but at least I have my music back!

IOS 6 w/ iphone 4 now doesn't show information on bluetooth music sync pioneer. What's the plan on this fix, buy another phone? Become a part of the commercial from Samsung bashing this pointless updates?

pioneer avh-3400bh, just got it installed, read reviews online about bluetooth music information no longer showing up after ios6 update....... any clue to when Apple will either fix this error or allow people to go back to older versions of operating systems?

FINALLY! a firmware update came out today for the 3400BH (among others) - I got an email from PIoneer and downloaded and installed the new firmware - now the radio works perfect! The only problem is, you can only install the firmware update via bluetooth PC, which is NOT as easy as the instrucions show - if you have a bluetooth dongle (like I do) there were several issues during the install - finally got it installed (not quite sure how exactly) but it works.

HP Officejet Pro L7590 - print quality issue

We've had a lot of problems with this unit since day one. It simply wouldn't work with our XP computers. Thankfully it does work with our new Windows 7 computer.
The problem I'm having is that I have to clean the printheads at least once, if not twice, before every print job if it hasn't printed anything recently (even an hour or two).
Although we've had the printer for a while, it has hardly been used because it wouldn't work with our previous computers (and I gave up trading emails with HP support because the situation just got worse each time we tried something, not better). The myPrintMileage function says we've printed just over 300 pages (and I can pretty much guarantee that at least 250 of those have been diagnostic pages trying to get it working, not actual print jobs).
The only advice I can find on the troubleshooting page is to replace the printhead/s. Is that really the case? We have already had to replace ink cartridges before we ever got the printer working. If we now have to replace one or both printheads this machine is proving very costly to run. I would be very disappointed to find we had had to replace all four ink cartridges and both printheads before we ever got the machine working properly.
I'd appreciate any feedback you can offer on this please.

SAP ERP Quality Issue: Notification Creation Problem

Hello,
I'm testing the SAP mobile app ERP Quality Issue.
I've done the needed customizing in backend.
If I try to create a notification from the mobile app I've got this message:
Your Quality Issue cannot be created!
In iPad log I can see this error:

I don't understand why the app talks about DateTime if there are no datetime fields in the screen!
Does anyone have the same problem?

Iphone 6 call quality issue....

Hi, yesterday i saw software update in my iphone 6 and i thought it will solve the call quality issue , but unfortunately it was not for that.
Dear iphone support , the call quality in iphone 6 is really bad, I was using iphone 4S and that had great voice quality. iphone 6 voice during call is not clear , it has noise .
When I told my friends about the problem , they told me that I might have bought the refurbish phone. But I bought it from Dubai in 750 USD and I do not think it would be the case.

Since my iPhone 6 has great Call Quality,
My tip would be to take it to an Apple shop. All apple Products have world wide warranty.
If it is really they should be able to fix it.
Hope this helps,
