BlueTooth working devices with UT

AppLee

@C0n57an71n
I think listing the working products is a good solution.
But most issues appears on headset for hand-free calls as Stefano stated.

I guess regular speaker are less useful here as I think (I may very well be wrong) that there are way less problems with such devices. At least I never experienced any trouble with the few devices I tried to connect.

@AppLee @C0n57an71n Right. The main issue with bluetooth headsets is still due to some compatibility issues between the versions of bluez and pulseaudio that are in 16.04 and which we rely on. It should hopefully get better with a move to 20.04, simply due to the newer versions of those packages. We should also be able to add BLE battery status support after the upgrade, for example.

My Aeroscope works pretty well with UT, though the app is not very nice yet.

Added, thanks

Not the same for me, I have experienced trouble with at least one BT speaker in the past months.

@libremax I should probably add that the app is not really "available" for UT yet, and also that it is not a "drone system." It's an oscilloscope.

@dobey Changed... Well, I learned about both

@libremax On my Aquaris M10 HD with OTA-14 a JBL Clip2 works as speaker, but not as microphone.

@yutu Thanks, your contribution is added.

@dobey You got me interested What oscilloscope are you talking about?

@libremax Isn't better to host as well a link to an Excell on cloud that people could fill themselves, lines would be the BT devices, column would be the UT devices and the intersection would be comments on how it works?

That should be this one: https://www.crowdsupply.com/aeroscope-labs/aeroscope-wireless-oscilloscope

@AppLee 20MHz? Not bad, not bad at all. Thanks!
@dobey Are you working on a UT app for oscilloscope?

Not currentlly. The Aeroscope app is open source and written with Qt. I have been able to build and run it on a PC and on UT, but it's not a particularly great experience yet given the design. Sadly the hardware/firmware wasn't open sourced, and the company seems to no longer exist, but if you can get one (CrowdSupply may still have some in stock), it's definitely a neat little scope that can fit in a pocket.

@C0n57an71n Reading a table, and even worse, typing into a table with a smartphone, is really annoying.
And the indirection to a site outside the forum also adds pain.
Keep it simple, stupid, is a trend for me.

Also can confirm Polaroid PBT562 speaker works fine with UT.

I confirm that Bluetooth works on my both cars (Ford Sync + Seat media system) using Nexus 5 OTA-14. But there's an awful high-pitched background noise making the speaker's words almost inaudible. (on both systems) On the other hand, my interlocutor can hear me correctly.
All features are working well except the battery which is displayed as empty. I didn't try to hear my music via Bluetooth on those systems.

Given "there's an awful high-pitched background noise making the speaker's words almost inaudible" and on an other hand, you "didn't try to hear [your] music via Bluetooth on those systems", it's for me difficult to consider it as a working device.

stanwood

@libremax I meant, Bluetooth communication (incoming, outgoing calls) technically works...
So next step I'll try the BT music player on those devices.

With my Nexus 5 I'm able to play music on a JBL Clip 3 and also on my Beats Studio 3.
I don't remember if I tried to use the microphone or be in call on both these devices, I'll come back if I do :winking_face:
On OTA-14 btw
