Re: Bluetooth Handsfree Kit Reviews : Tantra Fluke Pro, EDUP & others

I recently installed Tantra Fluke Pro in my car.
It is working fine, but I faced the below issues in my 2 days of usage and would seek suggestions/ advice from experts-
1. Everytime I start my car, volume level of Tantra by default gets set to maximum and it creates distortion in speaker output. I manually adjust it to suitable levels.
Is there a way to come out of it, so that I do not have to adjust it manually?
2. When I turn the key position from ACC mode to IGNITION mode, the device goes to sleep mode. I need to switch it on manually. This happens every alternate time. Is this ok?
3. Is there a way to start music automatically once I am in the car and the device is on?
Now, the device automatically pairs with my mobile, but I have to switch on music from my mobile.

Re: Bluetooth Handsfree Kit Reviews : Tantra Fluke Pro, EDUP & others

I purchased this Tantra device recently and must say I am mighty impressed. On unboxing, it looks like a flimsy device but it’s a pocket rocket. The sound quality through ICE and call quality both are spot on.
Obviously this is a redundant accessory for anyone purchasing a new car but for anyone who wants to add Bluetooth capabilities to an old car, this is highly recommended.

Specifically for Honda city where the AUX and USB ports are hidden from plain sight, it turns out to be a pretty neat implementation (I hate dangling wires).

Useful device for the price.
Took it out after 5+ years, only the mic had got a little weak. Replaced it locally for 100 bucks and is working perfect. Truly a quality product.
I have lost the magnetic mounting disks which are used to stick on the dashboard, Any idea how to get them/ alternative jugaad for them?

What option needs to be enabled in Power AMP player to to resume of playback when bluetooth device is reconnected?

I just got the full modded version of this apk today!

I didn't change any setting. The player just resumes playing after reconnecting. It's just that reconnecting takes few seconds, more like 30 seconds. It's not instantaneous.

I have been using this for over 5 years. Highly recommended. The dangling wires do get in the way at times, but nothing to beat the audio quality, especially calling. At times, my mom on the other side of the call cannot even hear the sound of the vehicle or the road. The noise cancellation is so good. Even audio streamed from the phone is nice for my use.

Re: Bluetooth Handsfree Kit Reviews : Tantra Fluke Pro, EDUP & others

I have recently purchased used Hyundai i20 asta 2012 model. It has steering controls for call connect and disconnect. But there is no Bluetooth control. Service centre people were not able to help me. How can I use the Bluetooth?

What do you mean by Bluetooth control, can you elaborate?

No option for bluetooth on the console. How do I use it?

Do I need external Bluetooth kit? Will it automatically connect to steering controls?

There is a setup button on the Head unit which will allow you to pair your phone with the HU using bluetooth. Once done, you can take and receive calls handsfree.

This Head unit does not have Bluetooth. I think the original HU that came with the car conked off or got damaged and was replaced with a non Bluetooth based Head unit from the year earlier.

Check this video. You can see how to pair the phone to HU. If you observe, the Head unit has 'bluetooth' printed in the top left corner. However, yours does not have it.



Best bet for you is to upgrade to a good HU from pioneer or sony to get full functionality of taking calls. Anyway the stock HU is not great
