Intone+mplayer 1 or 2:

Setup

add that to .asoundrc:

pcm.!default {
  type bluetooth
  device XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX 
  profile "auto"
}

Note that only intone and usual alsa program will use that path, not the telephony, ring etc...

Each Time

• boot the phone
• open vala-terminal
• run:

  fdisk /dev/mmcblk0
  p #if a partition doesn't appear, run the following(recreates a big partiton, do not do that if you have multiples partitions)
  n
  p
  <enter>
  <enter>
  <enter>
  p #the partition should have appeared
  w
  

• open emtooth2, wait for the bluetooth headset to appear in intone after putting the headset in discovered mode.
• click on the device entry
• slide the audio connect button, reslide it until it says an error that it's already connected(so you know it's connected)
• finally open intone, select the folder to play(do not take a too-big folder else it will OOM(out of memory(RAM))
• click on the settings button and renice mplayer
• return to the normal menu and press play

TODO

om-gta02

• Integrate bluetooth better
• Fix microsd issues
• handle the slowness of the CPU in mplayer or find a music player that works and that is capable of playing music fast enough
