Bluetooth, I don't know what I'm doing!!!


ZMan2k2

Recommended Posts

As it says, I'm not sure what settings should be, or shouldn't be changed, to get this to work.  Through pure luck, I discovered that Google Play Music works with my car stereo, an Alpine CDE-HD149BT flawlessly.  But I would like Poweramp to be my bluetooth method of choice, so I can go from singing in the car to bumpin' on my wired headset, without missing a beat.  Now, I can get everything to work on Poweramp and my car stereo, except, when you push the volume button, which acts like the select button, nothing happens.  It doesn't play the song, it just sits there.  If Google can figure it out, surely Max has, and implemented it in build 823.  The phone I'm using is an LG G7.  

 

Any advice would be appreciated.  Thanks.

Anything to be seen in Settings > Headset/Bluetooth > Last Processed Commands ?

Thanks for jumping in here.  Here's what it says,

That log is pretty meaningless without some context. What were you trying to do, and what was happening. You said earlier something about pressing Volume on something (phone, headset, Bluetooth receiver?) and expecting playback to start, but I'm not sure why you would expect that...

Sorry for the long wait, joys of life got in the way.

 

Anyways, the "Volume" button on the deck stated in the first post works like a multifunction, selector button as well.  So, when I open the "Bluetooth" app on the deck, I can select Poweramp by pushing the Volume button.  Pushing it again, I get the menu of "Albums, Artists, Playlists, Genres".  I press the Volume button again, I get to see the albums on my phone.  I turn the volume button to select an album, and finding one, I press it, to select that album.  The deck then shows me the first 3 songs in that album.  I highlight a song, press the volume button and nothing happens.  But I can get Google Play Music to work.  But that's not what I want, I want Poweramp to handle my music duties.

 

The reason for all this is, if you are caught using your phone at all while driving where I live, it is a $300 fine and 3 demerits on your license.  I hate giving away money, so I'm trying to avoid that.

 

I hope my above explanation, and the logs provide some clues I can follow.

 

Thanks.

Okay, so I hope in my last post, I made it clear how things are supposed to work.  I've discovered, while playing with things on my own, that the first time you select another track, it unloads Poweramp on the deck, and reverts to Google Play Music.  Any way to stop it from doing that, and remaining in Poweramp?  Here are the Bluetooth logs, I hope they help.

Sounds like it wants to send BT commands to Google Play Music. Can you perhaps clear any default settings, or maybe even Disable the Google app on the device?

I tried that, rebooted the phone and now in either AudioTrack or Open CL, I can't get past the music player program selection on the deck.  It's really wired.

I'm a bit puzzled by your use of the term "on the deck" - do you mean buttons on your car radio headunit? Or maybe steering wheel buttons?

The above log shows a PLAY command, then a PAUSE command, but the dev @maxmp would need to comment on the other later entries.
