Formerly Wired Headset Routing Fix Pro....

If you have an issue, post it at http://soundabout.userboard.net/ rather than leaving a rating and comment. I cannot contact you and try to help based on the comments.

This is an APP/Key for the Wired Headset Routing Fix. You must have the main app installed first.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.woodslink.android.wiredheadphoneroutingfix

This APP (with a service) allows you to:

1) Wired Headset detection - ALLOW or IGNORE the headphone/headset plug in/out detection.
ALLOW it so that plugging a headset in or out will automatically set your phone to use or not use the headset.
IGNORE will cancel the plug in/out event and is mostly used for those with phones that have a faulty headset jack which can cause the speaker and earpiece not to work.

2) Wired Headset microphone - DETECT or IGNORE that a headset has a microphone when plugged in. Only used if the headphone/headset plug in/out detection is set to ALLOW.

3) Notifications to Speaker - Allow notification/alarm sounds play through the SPEAKER as well as the selected media audio setting. This setting can be unchecked so that notifications/alarms only play through the selected media setting.

4) Media Audio - Route the media audio to (External speaker, Wired Headphones, Wired Headset (with mic), Earpiece, Aux Digital(HDMI), Bluetooth(A2DP), Bluetooth(mono), Bluetooth(mono)(dynamic), Dock(Analog), Dock(Digital)).
Media audio includes music, notifications, alarms, ringer.
(Bluetooth, Dock, Aux Digital(HDMI), and Earpiece are enabled for the PRO VERSION only)

MUSIC and NAVIGATION can be routed to Bluetooth (mono) on most phones, but not all.
NOTIFICATIONS CANNOT be routed to Bluetooth (mono).
BLUETOOTH(mono)(dynamic) - Will only send audio to the Bluetooth device when it detect audio is playing. Great for sending to a car's Bluetooh phone profile while the car radio is in use. It stops the radio, plays audio, and starts the radio. May not work for all cars and first second of audio could be missed if used for Navigation.

5) Phone call audio - (Pro version) Route the phone call audio to (Built in Earpiece, External speaker, Bluetooth (mono), Wired Headphones, Wired Headset (with mic), Aux Digital(HDMI)).

6) Bluetooth behavior - (Pro version):
Bluetooth Auto Enable - Automatically enable Bluetooth when Bluetooth output is selected.
(A2DP) Media audio usage - Allow/Deny the connected Bluetooth media device to be the default output for media.
(Mono) Media audio usage - Allow/Deny the connected Bluetooth mono device to be the default output for media. May not work for all phones.
Phone call usage - Allow/Deny the connected Bluetooth mono device to be the default output for phone calls.
(Mono) microphone override - Use the Bluetooth (mono) device microphone for voice input while using audio output set in the Media audio setting.

Disconnect to speaker - Allow/Deny using speaker for notifications(notifications still go to selected media audio output)

7) There is a widget named "Headset Toggle" to toggle the Headphones/Headset on or off.

    Great app. Does what it says and more. I have a galaxy s3 and solved issue with bluetooth not working with when headphones connected to my car stereo. There are so many combinations and options that make this app a must have. Great job.

    The biggest thing I would like to see from this app is a separate option for alarms from notifications. I would also like to have the option to hear notifications through headphones when the phone is in vibrate or silent. However, this app works as descri

    I got sick of having to unplug the cord while driving when someone called me just to be able to talk on my Bluetooth. This fixed everything up! Perfect!
