View Full Version : Script to redirect ringtones to BT headset *experimental*

Well, redirecting all BT audio became kind of a problem... it was eating up battery power on my S200 and headset.

So I wrote a new script for using the headset only for phone calls. The audio is redirected when an incoming call is detected, so that ringtones can be heard through the headset. This is particularly useful for using custom ringtones and in noisy environments when it's hard to hear the phone ring.

I've been having a hard time getting the script to work properly, but hopefully the script is now bug free. The problem I've encountered is that the headset will turn off (!!!) if the audio gateway is turned on too late. So like I said, this is *experimental*.

You will need VJVolubilis and MortScript like in my previous script - see previous post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=287691

I've included the scripts and a shortcut, which points to \program files\tools like before.

Note: I have *not* been able to get this to work on my stereo A2DP headset - only works on mono headset.

P.S. If you have a BT headset that can custom handle ringtones out-of-the-box, please tell me what model you have! Thanks!
