I have a 2017 Nissan Leaf Model S. It allows a bluetooth AD2P connection so that I can play audio from by my Android phone (Nexus 6) and interact with native cell phone calls from the phone.
However, beyond the native cell phone calls the microphone in the car and in the phone are dead.
So no Apps that want voice input get it. My home phone routes via a provider app, so I get sound but can't speak on those calls. Google Assistant some how manages to get the trigger phrase, but nothing I say after that.
Is this just normal bad behavior in either the car entertainment system, or in android?
Most of the time I'm playing audiobooks and the sound is so much better through the car system that I hate not to use it. I also get pause/play on the car screen and some info, which is nice (Nissan did the minimum on controls).
I suppose avoiding bluetooth with the analog headphone jack could work, but the jack is flakey on my phone and the next one may not even have one. Am external bluetooth to analog dongle could work, but I still lose the cars screen, and my past experience in a car wihout bluettooth had a more manual connecting sequence. The car just does it, if the phone is not otherwise connected, it connects with no intervention.
What I'm really look for is a hack to tell the phone to either keep the microphone alive or tell the car tpolisten..
