Tablet integration into my 370z (without using the cubby)

Do you get bluetooth calling? I am in the beginning stages of figuring out my tablet integration, and I bought a headunit to go with it because it did not

Do you get bluetooth calling?
I am in the beginning stages of figuring out my tablet integration, and I bought a headunit to go with it because it did not appear that an android tablet could also handle hands free calls through a bluetooth connection with my phone.

I have not wired in bluetooth calling yet. I am trying to see if there is an app that would integrate with my phone. Since my phone is paired already with my tablet via bluetooth, that would be the easiest, seamless integration for bluetooth calling.

I will keep you posted bud.

Okay I think I got!

So I read up on a few apps and downloaded and tested a couple and they all failed. So I came across this thread bluetooth - Answer my phone on my Tablet? - Android Enthusiasts Stack Exchange and basically it solved the whole hands free calling for me with one issue which I explain below..


1. download the following apps (google play store or apple app store) to your tablet and cellphone: google voice, google hangouts and google hangouts dialer.

2. go through the google voice tutorial and set it up on your phone and tablet.
- make sure you connect with w.e. gmail account you use bc it will sync all your contacts to those apps.
- Also make sure your *correct* phone number is connected to the google voice app. This is a step in the tutorial as you setup the google voice app.

Testing stage

3. Placing a call: Since your tablet already has built in microphone place a call using your google hangouts dialer.
-Tablet calling: using hangouts dialer, make a phone via your tablet to a friend or your home phone. If its a friend ask them how the call quality is. when I called my sister via the tablet she said the call quality was fine meaning normal as if I was using my cellphone. *my internet on the tablet is tethered via bluetooth on my cellphone*

- Receiving calls: have a friend or relative call you on your cellphone. When they call you, you should also receive that call on your tablet. It is simultaneous.
Here is the road block I am facing....:
**the issue i am running into is when I am receiving a call from my phone; however, answering on my tablet, my phone still continues to ring even though I have answered the call via the tablet. (Trying to figure this out- so stay tune)

**Calling/receiving calls via your tablet is free in the USA and Canada. No charges apply. google voice mimics your cellphone calling plan / carrier restrictions. Obviously placing any international calls will incur charges.


I hope this helps.

Next up is to figure out if there is an AUX/mic combo that I can plug into the 3.5 jack as my tablet is mounted at the location of the oem HU. And since the mic on the galaxy tab 4 7" is on the bottom near the home button, I think my voice quality will suffer or will sound muffled.
