As we know,we could record voice via Bluetooth headset,we should use SCO link, but when a call coming, the system will lost sco link,so that, I can't get PCM data from SCO link. how to resolve it.
I'd try to this code,but it doesn't work.
AudioManager am = (AudioManager)context.getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
am.setMode(AudioManager.MODE_IN_COMMUNICATION);
am.startBluetoothSco();
am.setBluetoothScoOn(true);
when phone is ringing, can i record from SCO?
Android changes audio routing depending on its needs, and when the phone is ringing (and/or when the call is answered) the audio is re-routed to target device (earpiece, headphones, BT, etc..). It's impossible to start a single recording Object and get all the data (the data before, current and future voice during communication), but you have to monitoring the voicecall status (or the current Audio Routing state) and close the previous recording object and then create a new one using different settings.
If you are interested ONLY in your voice while your phone is ringing, you could do it by recording that data using UPLINK as the AudioSource of Recording object.

I am trying to record both Uplink and Downlink voice using Android. Regardless the law and everything, i am already aware, so please do not put comments related to the law.
The code below works fine, except when i mute the microphone, it wont record the downlink voice.
I am using Android 8.1. I've tried using a third party app called ACR on the same device, and it works fine, while i am muted, it still records the downlink voice.
val audioManager = applicationContext.getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE) as AudioManager
val maximumVolume = audioManager.getStreamMaxVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_VOICE_CALL)
audioManager.setStreamVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_VOICE_CALL, maximumVolume, 0)
val audioSource = MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC
val mediaRecorder = MediaRecorder()
mediaRecorder.apply {
setAudioSource(audioSource)
setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.MPEG_4)
setAudioEncoder(MediaRecorder.AudioEncoder.AAC)
setAudioChannels(audioChannels)
setAudioSamplingRate(audioSamplingRate)
setAudioEncodingBitRate(audioEncodingBitRate)
setOutputFile(path)
prepare()
start()
This is not an issue. You set the MediaRecorder to use MIC as input, so if you MUTE the microphone it's obliviously that the input signat is lost/muted. When you use "downlink" word I expected to see a different input source as VOICECALL or DOWNLINK instead of MIC. Trying to record a voicecall using the MIC it's wrong in my opinion because: (1) you have to set max volume to speaker and redirect the voicecall through it (2) while recording a voicecall from the MIC the caller hears ALL what it happens around your device and all what you're saying to other people (3) this method records much noise and echoes. The right way is to record from VOICECALL but most of new devices (using newer Android version) prevents to record from this source and allows it only at System Apps. ACR uses a workaround by calling hidden API methods, but this method could stop stop work at any time due to Android updates.
I have an app that uses android.speech.tts.TextToSpeech.speak() to readout messages.
The messages are only supposed to be readout to a connected bluetooth headset. So before I call the speak method I check AudioManager.isBluetoothA2dpOn();
Speak method implementation:
ttsOptions.putInt(TextToSpeech.Engine.KEY_PARAM_STREAM, AudioManager.STREAM_VOICE_CALL);
ttsOptions.putFloat(TextToSpeech.Engine.KEY_PARAM_VOLUME, 1.0f);//MAX
tts.speak(text, TextToSpeech.QUEUE_ADD, ttsOptions, utteranceID);
This behaviour was working as expected for about a year but lately it fails on Samsung devices only in a way that it routes the audio to the phone's speaker and the message are read out loud.
I managed to fix the routing issue with a hack of:
1.AudioManager.setMode(AudioManager.MODE_IN_COMMUNICATION);
2.mAudioManager.requestAudioFocus(null, AudioManager.STREAM_VOICE_CALL, AudioManager.AUDIOFOCUS_GAIN);
3.mAudioManager.startBluetoothSco();
4.Play a brief audio file
If I do these 4 steps the audio routing is fixed and routed to the bluetooth headset.
Questions:
Why do Samsung devices route the audio to the phone speaker instead of the bluetooth device?
Any reliable way to check whether the audio will be routed to the headset instead of the AudioManager.isBluetoothA2dpOn();?
I am able to receive, hangup and dial a number from my headset to android mobile which are connected via bluetooth.
Now, once I receive a in-coming call of mobile in headset, I need to speak with the called person from headset. I need to stream my voice via bluetooth to android mobile. I am searching for this code.
Crawled n number of post but could not get appropriate answer, Currently am using below but its not working...
AudioManager audioManager;
audioManager = (AudioManager) getSystemService(AUDIO_SERVICE);
audioManager.setMode(AudioManager.MODE_IN_COMMUNICATION);
audioManager.startBluetoothSco();
audioManager.setBluetoothScoOn(true);
audioManager.setSpeakerphoneOn(true);
I am not sure after this what line of code I need to write to achieve my requirement
Note: I receive in-coming call by sending mmOutStream.write("ATA\r".getBytes()); this AT command to my Android mobile.
Please correct and guide me to perform audio stream.
You should set speakerphone to false, otherwise your output will be re-directed there. It is enough to do this:
audioManager.setSpeakerphoneOn(false);
audioManager.startBluetoothSco();
audioManager.setBluetoothScoOn(true);
Also, you can optionally set microphone to un-mute state (just in case previous state was muted):
mAudioManager.setMicrophoneMute(false);
I am trying to identify how to route a very short audio stream (a notification) to a bluetooth headphone that is already paired with the device, while the device is ringing.
When I play any audio at any time, it is routed to the bluetooth device, no problem.
But if I try to start playing the audio when receiving an android.intent.action.PHONE_STATE, in RINGING state, the audio is not routed as expected.
I can see that the AudioManager's setBluetoothA2dpOn method has became deprecated, but I actually tried it but is seems has no effect.
I have tried the MediaRouter object, but I can see that MediaRouter.getSelectedRoute(MediaRouter.ROUTE_TYPE_LIVE_AUDIO) points to the RouteInfo of the Bluetooth device while the device is ringing, and the AudioManager.isBluetoothA2dpOn is true.
So, can any one tell me why the audio route is like this in the ringing moment? is there any way to force the audio to be routed to the Bluetooth device in such case?
[UPDATED]
I have tried again today and I have discovered something that may be the cause of the problem.
I have created a BroadcaseReceiver to detect the change in the android.intent.action.PHONE_STATE. if an intent is received and the state is currently ringing, check for AudioManager's mode and you will find it is MODE_NORMAL. but few seconds later the phone will start actually ringing and the mode is going to be changed into MODE_RINGTONE. trying to manually set the mode using the method setMode(AudioManager.MODE_NORMAL) is useless then, the state remains MODE_RINGTONE even after setting it to MODE_NORMAL.
Now, I think the cause of the problem is that in the MODE_RINGTONE mode, all the streams are directed to the phone speaker and here there is no way offered by the android system to change the mode.
I think the Media player realease the bluetooth connection when the phone is ringing. You can try to obtain the bluetooth audio connection and see if Media player now play through your obtained connection. You can use my class at my answer Using the Android RecognizerIntent with a bluetooth headset and see if it works. The audio in the class is Sco only.
As stated in the JavaDoc for the StartBluetoothSco method:
Note that the phone application always has the priority on the usage of the SCO connection for telephony. If this method is called while the phone is in call it will be ignored. Similarly, if a call is received or sent while an application is using the SCO connection, the connection will be lost for the application and NOT returned automatically when the call ends.`
I tried to start sco then play a music clip in normal mode, it played to the Bluetooth headset without problems, although I couldnot stop the microphone that caused the input stream plays to the headset. I then tried to call my target phone from another phone while the music is still playing, I found that the stream has got redirected automatically to the phone speaker. After the ringing mode is finished, the stream did not get redirected again to the Bluetooth headset and I think that behavior is normal according to what is stated in the JavaDoc above.
My guessing is that Android tries to protect the ringing and in-call modes as possible in order not to allow any unwanted interference from applications. In other words, when in ringing mode then no sound is going to be played to the headset until the call is accepted, and you cannot even change the AudioManager mode from ringing to another mode, your call for mode setter will be ignored.
I have tried the AudioTrack instead of MediaPlayer, but that makes no difference.
I have then tried the TextToSpeech engine like this:
in the main activity, initialize on create:
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
textToSpeech=new TextToSpeech(this, this);
textToSpeech.setLanguage(Locale.US);
textToSpeech.addEarcon("[wwww]", "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX", R.raw.a);
}
in the broadcast receiver class when rining starting the Bluetooth utility class and adding the below to the onScoAudioConnected method
textToSpeech.playEarcon("[wwww]", TextToSpeech.QUEUE_FLUSH, null);
This did not work too.
I have a Samsung vibrant and I am connecting to to my car using bluetooth. In the samsung music app there is a button to route the audio to via bluetooth or via phone.
Anyone know how there were able create this functionality. I looked at the sdk and I see
ROUTE_BLUETOOTH_A2DP
This constant is deprecated. Do not
set audio routing directly, use
setSpeakerphoneOn(),
setBluetoothScoOn() methods instead.
Routing audio output to bluetooth A2DP
Constant Value: 16 (0x00000010)
but as you can see it is listed as "deprecated", i see the option for setBluetoothScoOn, but not an equivalent to for setting a2dp on.
My end goal would be to create a widget that allows me to turn on and off outing to the a2dp. So I can turn it on when I want to stream music and turn it off when I want to use navigator, but listen to music or the radio at the same time.
Here's what you are looking for: (not sure if this was available at the time of your question...)
setBluetoothA2dpOn();
But it's also deprecated.
My guess would be to use this instead:
audioManager.startBluetoothSco();
audioManager.setBluetoothScoOn(true);
And to stop routing:
audioManager.setBluetoothScoOn(false);
audioManager.stopBluetoothSco();
audioManager is a instance of the AudioManager.
Here's a reference to AudioManager: AudioManager
Hope this helps, cheers
