Android incoming call does not ring bluetooth

Post by notzippy »

Hi

Trying this out on my android phone (LG p930) I can make calls from a bluetooth device but when a call comes in to fongo my BT device is not notified it just rings on the phone. Is there a way to fix this ? Note regular calls on the cellphone ring on the BT device perfectly.

thanks
Steve

no, it has always been like this. The app seems to have pretty poor BT support.

Had a closer look and it appears that they do not even try to invoke the Bluetooth on incoming calls. This is vital for my usage , it will make the difference in choosing if I go with fongo or another SIP provider. Any chance this could be supported ?

I think it will be a slim chance for bluetooth support

Outgoing calls fully support blue tooth, both for the initial dial and voice communication - I believe it may have been an oversight that the application does not use the bluetooth on incoming calls
