i heard someone say imate jam BT stack support handsfree is that true & if it is how can we use it for imate (XDA II)
The profile is called "Handsfree profile" on the T-mobile english rom and "headset profile" on the T-mobile german rom. I use my T-mobile Compact with the CK3100 car kit (from Parrot) and it seems that it is only the "headset profile" even if my OS call this "handsfree profile".
If you read the faq on www.clubimate.com, they say that the Jam supports only "headset profile". And I think that it's the reality.
thanks

I am getting a little worried here.
It is advertised everywhere that the xda IIs has voice dial, which to me reffers to me talking into a bt headset and it calls that contact.
If this is not possible, can fonix ispeak sort it?
The device comes with fonix voicedial software, but it does not work through the headset. I have my MDAIII mounted on the windscreen in the car and manage to use voicedial to make calls with over 90% accuracy and then talk through my jabra bt headset.
Which unit do you have PDA2K or IIs? I haven't seen any postings yet comparing the two devices, O2 may have addressed some BT issues before launching the IIs.
I won't have one (IIs, already have PDA2K) till next week.
getting the 2's next week. new officail date is the 15th nov. so should recieve it on the 16th
So what does it take to make this work? is it impossible. Can we not do something?
it take it that this product is using the mic hardware and not bluetooth mic?

Anyone come acrross this before: (scroll down to Kai’s Bluetooth Headset Patch 2004 )
http://www.pocketpcmag.com/_archives/sep04/bluetooth.asp

Or is this something where only ever going to get to use with bluetooth v2?
read this an help me please

Its good to see progress being made but the main problem still is a hard ware based. The mic and speaker in phone hardware need to be bridged with the ppc... which gets me thinking.....as we can speak into ppc and listen to the caller then once we BT the call it was bridge/switch it.... dont understand why something so simple and a much required feature is missing :?
Hi,
I have installed the trial version of MS command and it seems to be doing the trick... I have a qtek 9090 and I did not see any installed software for voice dialing... Is it only on PDA2K?
Thanks.

MS Command doesn't support bluetooth headsets either.
From the MS blurb: "Bluetooth Headset Support - Voice Command does not support using a Bluetooth headset to initiate a voice command but you can use a Bluetooth headset during the phone conversation."
So its the same as fonix. You have to speak the dialling command into the device, and it only transfers to the bluetooth headset when the device starts dialling out. If you can put up with that, fonix works pretty well.

Well as much as I was looking forward to getting a PDA2K or SX-66, I feel that this is a MAJOR drawback that has me thinking twice. I read that your cannot initiate VOICE calls using a BlueTooth headset no matter what software you are running. Is this accurate?
If so, then why can the Audiovox SMT5600 do it by the way of voice tags?
Thanks,
Frank
Previous ms smartphones and pocket pc phones have not supported the bluetooth handsfree profile which would allow voice dialling. Since the new devices now support it its up to the software developers to implement it in their software. For example, using my SE HBH-200 on my imate PDA2K i can initiate voice dialling on the headset but on the imate there is nothing to interface with. If the Audiovox can do it there is no reason why a more powerful pocket pc cant do it as well
I have looked all over the Blue Angel Support forum and I was able to get the latest rom which includes the latest Radio 1.08 (I know there is 1.10 but I do not think it is available for cooking yet). I was wondering where everyone was getting this bluetooth stack from (as well as the BT3500 version) and most importantly if these two stacks support A2PD profile (High quality Headphone profile). I have this older PDA2K Broadcom cab file I got over the the firstloox forum that actually worked with my Loox 720, but I think it is a pretty old version. Do these two broadcomm stack versions include this profile and where can I get them and willI have to hardreset to install them or are they available as cab files?
Also with bluetooth on the PDA2k, is it possible to passthrough all the sound that happens in Windows mobile through the headset e.g. Music, videos, etc or is it only phone sounds that go through the headset? And are there any bluetooth headsets that can redial the last number dialed on my PDA2K using a button on the headset?
Look in WIKI for BT cabs.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Versions
(instructions for both 1.08 and 1.10 written by other forum members)
I use an I-tech headset (not sure if available in the States) this has a redial button (two short clicks)
I have last number dialed set to my answer phone, on Orange I use the Wildfire answer phone which has voice recongnition.
I can therefore dial any number using my blue tooth device.
this is exactly what I want to do. What did you use to set the answer button to last number redial. How exactly do I do this on my pda2k with a headset that has an answer button. Is it done on the headset itself or is it done on the pda2k with a special program or app? If you don't mind could you go into detail about this as this would solve the voice dial over bluetooth problem plaguing these devices as I could always use the voice service of my carrier (CIngular wireless in the US).
Hi,
Newbie, just purchased an XDA2i with an O2 'blue' headset and I need some help in the voice dial area.
Turns out they are not compatible for one click voice dialing. Installed fonix VoiceDial 2.0 off the O2 installation CD but it will not activate from the Blue Headset Call button. In the XDA settings you can assign hardware buttons from the XDAii to start the voice dial feature but not from the headset pickup / make call button.
Any ideas if this can be resolved or if there is another voice dial software that can be activated to make a call by clicking the O2 blue headset? And/or another headset that works so I don't have to keep getting this thing out of my bag to make a call? - Would have thought this would have been a basic requirment of a phone/pda this size?
Cheers,
R
Same problem with Jabra BT250v
I have the same problem with my XDA IIi and Jabra BT250v headset. O2 Customer services are absolutely no help, they say "there is no headset available at the moment that will function properly with xda IIi". O2 Shops say all headsets will work but you need to buy one and then try", what does one believe and go to get help...........?

These PDA's dont support this functions, irrespective of where you buy it from. orange, voda, o2, t-mobile - they just can't do bluetooth voicedial. Naff but true.
:roll:
Yes, strange but true, it seems the reason is that the xda series are pda's with phone capability, not phone with pda capability so they thought they would leave out that particular feature. Probably something to do with marketing but I cant see the logic of it for the life of me.

I have a O2 mini, and Sony BT Headset. I also have a disability and this 'non-feature' is more than just an 'annoyance' for me.
Calling out I can manage on the pda and the headset turns on automatically - though voice dial would be handy, it's the answering that I have trouble with.
Can you tell me, is the 'bit' that switches a incoming call to a BT headset part of the BT in MSWindows 2003se PPC software or part of the O2 firmware or part of hardware?
What does the answering? Could a utility be written that detects an incoming call and switch answer to a BT headset?

There are two known pocket pc phones that have bluetooth voice dialling; the Motorola MPX and the Eten M500. So its not a limitation of the OS, just short-sightedness of some app developers
Can anyone confirm whether the universal (MDA Pro fro T-Mobile) is capable of having a voicedial initiated via a bluetooth headset?
If not by default is there a small hack? I have a Skypower headset at the moment and which to pair and do this with the device.
Tried searching but 'bluetooth voicedial' returned no applicable results within the universal category
Thanks in advance
Gareth
yeah it is capable of and i luv the voice dialer of o2 exec it so perfect and soo eassy. work perfectly with sony ericsson hbh-300 and hbh-35
I have a 2001 BMW E39 M5 in which I have retrofitted a Bluetooth module.
It worked fine with my O2 XDA Exec (and with my wife's Nokia 6310i), but I cannot get it to work with my new O2 XDA Orbit or my previous Vario II (HTC Hermes).
I have no problem pairing the phone, but when I ask the car to "Dial Name" or "Dial Number", it just says "Dialling" and nothing happens on the phone. Incoming calls are not picked up by the car either.
Anybody got an Artemis or Hermes to work in an E39?
Jet ware mobile might help - have a look into it
