Latest version: strange behavior (fixed)

Hi,
after installing the latest version each call goes through loud speaker of the phone, even if the service of the app is turned off and Bluetooth headset connected or not. The phone works correctly after deinstallation of the app. In versions before I didn't notice such a behavior.

There was an old bug like this. What version of SoundAbout? Is it 2.6.8.1?

Is this on every phone call?

Yes, it's 2.6.8.1
Every phone call.
SONY XPERIA ACRO S. JB 4.1.2 Stock. Root.

Usually, that would mean that the earpiece channel is disabled, so that the phone can not accept the call with the earpiece.

You said that it won't accept calls with a Bluetooth Headset as well, so that negates the earpiece theory.

Just to be sure it's not a left over setting, can you clear the cache for SoundAbout and restart the phone. That's a good first thing to rule out.


1) Go into phone settings
2) Press on apps
3) Scroll to SoundAbout, and press it.
4) Press clear cache, clear data, force stop

1) Go into phone settings

3) Scroll to SoundAbout Pro, and press it.
4) Press clear cache, clear data, force stop

OK, can you try the latest Beta version and restart.

Thanks, beta version works fine now.
Clear cache, data and force stop didn't work.
And it would be better to get back option to check microphone use in bluetooth configuration.
And what about Tasker integration? May be intents at least?

Great. I heard the same of others with the same issue. I will moved 2.6.8.2 to Google Play.


That Bluetooth Microphone option is something you want to toggle quick.  It was taken out of the settings.

Go into the widgets, scroll down to SoundAbout and take a look.  

There is a "Headset Toggle" widget to turn the wired headset on and off quick.

There is a "Wired Mic Toggle to turn just the wired headset mic ON/OFF.

For you need,  there is a "Bluetooth Mic Toggle to turn just the Bluetooth mic ON/OFF.   This replaces that old setting.
