[Q] HTC One X+/One connected to Ford Sync & Smartwatch

[aidicula]

I am planning to buy the Smartwatch, however there is one thing I am not sure of. Can I connect my phone to the Ford Sync (with phone capabilities) and the SmartWatch at the same time? I checked numerous forums, but couldnt find the info I needed. Anyone?

question is... how many bluetooth devices can you connect to an sgs3 (or any phone)

First search result...

You can have multiple bluetooth devices connected at once but they cannot use the same profiles.

For instance, you can connect to a stereo a2dp profile on one bluetooth device and a phone profile on another device simultaneously.

I connect to 3 devices at once, a stereo bluetooth dongle in the car, a headset, and an OBDII Elm327 diagnostic vehicle scanner.

In your case, if you want to connect to both, you need to uncheck the "Call audio" in the settings for that specific device. Make sure only "Media audio is connected". Next, for your headset, if it only supports "Call audio" i.e. the phone profile, then your done and you don't need to do anything. If your headset is a newer one that supports media audio, you'll need to go to the settings and do just the opposite you did for the car media bluetooth and deselect "Media audio" leaving only "Call audio" checked.

that should answer your question

Thanks for your reply... I had actually searched and figured out the limitation. I know iOS allows multiple Bluetooth notifications and I was wondering if there is a hack or something for Android as well. I would like the phone profile available on the watch and on while I am on the car. It is really inconvenient to switch on/off the profiles depending on where I am.. Manually.

You can use a tool like tasker to set on/off any device basedon on your location. Also can use it to set any profile to your devices.
