Help Bluetooth Car Audio and Mic Turned Off

Hoping someone can help me. I recently bought a bluetooth reciever for my car to stream the media and calls from my phone through the car stereo. Music works fine, and the sound from the call comes through the speakers great as well. But unfortunately the sound doesnt pick up from the mic on the phone., Is there a setting or app to force the mic 'on' when the bluetooth is connected. I dont seem to ba able to get one to work at all.

Cheers

Chris
 
I'm having issues as well- it appears that if it connects with a headphones symbol I get media through bluetooth, but calls through the 'phone only. If it connects as a headset (headphones symbol but with a mouth mic as well) it all goes through the bluetooth. There doesn't seem to be an option in the bluetooth menu to define what type of connection you have
 
Is your bluetooth receiver built into the stereo or is it a separate device that works through the stereo. Either way did you receive a microphone with it?

It's a separate device. Is just a Bluetooth receiver that connects to the aux socket if the stereo. There's no option to add a Mic, which is why I was hoping there is a fix possible forcing the phone Mic on.
 
After reading some other pages and looking through the settings on my phone it seems that you are unable to select your choice of microphone, the only option I believe would be to use a device that has its own mic.
