Reading caller-ID via Bluetooth

Post by default82 » 25 Jan 2014 12:55

Hello,

i want to use automagic to read the name of the caller, while i'm wearing a Bluetooth headset. I managed to identify a call, pause music and it even reads the name of the caller from the mobile's speaker. But i didn't find a way, that the audio comes out of my Bluetooth headset. I was wondering, if this isn't (yet) supported by automagic, or if i am just too blind to see where this setting is.
Perhaps it's just a Problem between my two devices: a Motorola RAZR i and a Jabr Halo 2.

The Motorola runs on Android 4.1.2 and the Jabra is a Halo 2 v5.20.0.

Thank you in Advance

Hi,

When the headset supports Media audio sound and speech to the music-stream should be played by the headset automatically.
You could try to use action Set Bluetooth SCO State: On, Start Bluetooth SCO when your headset only supports Phone audio however this action is known to not work on some devices. In my experience a headset can be in a state that does not accept audio when an incoming call is ringing so it might not even work when the SCO-action was successful.

Regards,
Martin
