Hands Free in Auto with Built in BlueTooth?

Has anyone been sucessfull in using a Hands Free System in any Automobile with the PDA2K? If so what is your Bluetooth Stack & is it modified? Is there a Modified Bluetooth Stack out there able to work in a Hands Free System? There must be someone out there who can make the Right Bluetooth Stack for the PDA2K!!!! :roll: :idea:

I use a parrot CK3000 in my car (I used it with my nokia 6310i before)
It does what it has to do , except for the audio volume setting (I talked to parrot and this will be solved in the next carkit firmware)
I used my 6310i to set the initial volume

Hi,
I have Sonyericssons Bluetooth handsfree HCB-30. It work like a dream. Connects perfect every time. I don't even think about if it have connect to the hands free or not. Work even better with my Qtek 9090 then with my P910.

I have the XDA2s working with the SE HCB-30 in my Audi with absolutely no problems so far. BT stack is 3500.

I use my MDA III with the build in Audi BT handsfree (Cullmann third generation).
I do have problems with the volume control (always jumps back to min) and even worse the connection is lost when I get an incoming call. The ring sound is still coming via the handsfree-speakers, but as soon as I pick up (doesn't matter if via green hardware-button or touchscreen) the MDA III shows the handsfree-symbol on top with a "?" in it and I have to use the MDA III to speak/hear. After I hung up the connection is established again almost immediately (you hear a "pling" sound).
When I make a phone call connection stays up, I can use the handsfree system...
Anyone an idea? What does that question-mark symbol mean?
PEACE AND B WILD!

OK - let me get this straight. This is to those of you who are using a bluetooth headset in your vehicles.
Are you saying that without touching your PDA you are able to press a button on your headset, speak the name of a contact and get connected?
I have been able to do this on every bluetooth phone I have owned, but with my XDA I have to press a button to bring up the voice dial app which then proceeds to try and call a random person in my contacts list.

I asked ONLY FOR HANDS FREE PROFILE, NOT HEADSET PROFILE. With the latest rom upgrade the HFP does not work. Imate PDA2K supports both the Hfp & the Headset Profile.

BT headset/handsfree profile - this might improve quality

Hi all,
I swapped my old O2 G2 BT headset for the new O2 one and have to say I noticed little improvement. I even upgraded to the 3900 build of the stack but no difference. However I then gotta thinking....
By default the profile being used was hands-free, but I seemed to remember the XDA2 using only headset. So - I found that by holding the -vol button for 15 secs I could register it as a headset profile (the XDA2s cannot use any of the hands-free bits anyway - voicedial etc etc).
Well, the audio quality is improved and the range appears to be better. It is still not perfect (or as good as it was on the XDA2) but it is now useable.
I am going to test for the week before I decide if I shall get a refund or not.
Cheers - Rich

Hi Rakh!
Where can I get the BT3900?
Thanks!

the -vol button on the side?
When did you do that? - it doesn't seem to do anything on mine??
Thanks

Hi, yes the -vol button on the side. Switch it off (red light) wait 5 secs and then hold the -vol button for 15 (yes fifteen) seconds!

Hi,
Nope - still doesn't seem to do anything on mine. Either i'm doing something wrong or it only works on the xdaIIs and not the M2000 (they are suposed to be the same hardware but it might be a software thing).
Thanks anyway,
--ian

-vol button on the side of the O2 BT headset - not the XDA2s
Sorry for the confusion but I didn;t figure out what you were doing unitl now
Rich

Ahhhhh - doh!
Thanks for clearing that up.
I have a Jabra BT250 - and yes I was using the vol- on the phone

Jabra phones default to the headset program. Holding in the +Volume button on the headset while setting up for pairing turns on the optional Hands-free profile. This is just hte opposite of what the original post was about. The original poster had a G2 headset which defaults to Hands-free, but can be forced to Headset Profile.

Hi,
So what's the difference between headset and hands free?
--ian

Hands-free enables support for voice dialling etc etc etc. Headset simply allows you to use the mic and earpiece of the headset. I presume that the added functionality of the hands-free protocols take some of the 'bandwidth' from the voice part of the protocol and as a result exagerate the bad sound quality...???

Jabra headset
Hi to everyone!
I'm a Jabra user myself but I can't seem to enjoy the last number called redial feature with my XDA2 device (with ROM by Dr. Stein).
Any suggestions on how I can use this feature?
Thank you very much!

i have a motorola HS850.
it defaults to handsfree
anyone knows how to force it to headset?
it used to work such that when I open the boom on an incoming call, the call will automatically be answered.
now it doesnt work that way..
it just waits for either the bluetooth action button or the green answer button on xda iis to be pressed..

i have downgraded by BT [ recently upgraded to 3900 ] back to 3500 and the Motorola HS850 can auto answer whenever the boom is opened..
Guess 3900 is not perfect anymore

My HS850 works fine with BT 3900
Perfectly clear. Not tried switching handsfree to headset tho.

jabra bt 250
i m using a JAbra bt 250 and a qtek 9090..i tried the setting...but dont kno if it worked...in my shortcuts..it says hands-free connction to jabra..but i want it to be headset...coz thers too much of crackling right now..?

With BT headset paired, XDA keeps turning on?

Hi,
Once I manage to pair my plantronics M3000 BT headset with my XDA 2s
I get the info bubble telling me it's connected to the headset etc, then I turn
off the XDA with the power button and as if by magic at some random
period between 1 min and 5 mins it turns back on?
any idea why this keeps happening?
If I turn it back off again, it will switch on again after a while?
This all assumes I've got past the memory error by a soft reset or stopping all running programs.
Sigh!
Thanks
Mike
:evil: :twisted:

Would you like to post your Radio and BT Stack versions? I had exactly the same problem with a SonyEricsson HBH-200. I was running Radio 1.00.00 (T-Mobile UK). I cannot remember the BT stack version, however, I have installed the BT Stack Build 3500, and it works perfectly. At a later stage, I upgraded to stack 3900 because of some issues with TomTom. Both 3500 and 3900 work beatifully for me, and the sound quality is remarkably better than with the original BT stack. Have a look at WiKi for BT updates, it's all there
Good luck and keep us updated!

With BT headset paired, XDA keeps turning on?

Yes. That happens. Have tried 4 different headset and several differnt BT Stack versions. Always happens
I have now installed NiceStart by TranCreative which can be used to prevent unwanted powerons.

Jasjar- BT Jabra 500 sound Problem

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi!
I have i mate JasJar, but there are some problems which are a bit annoying and I will ask you if you can help
Does anybody have problems using BT Jabra 500 working with Jasjar?
I cant hear any of my incoming/outgoing calls nor can I hear a ringing in BT.
Jasjar discover BT and pairing is OK ( just in case I did couple times -no luck)
when I use answer/end button on BT is dialing out but no sound on BT
on other side that I call they can hear my voice but I can't hear anything
Do I need any software to instal in jasjar ???
ROM version 1.13.53 WWE
ROM date 09\23\05
Radio version 1.03.01
Protocol version 42.36.P8
ExRom version 1.13.137 WWE
Please help me out
Thanx

I have BT 500 and have no problems, it sounds like the headset has a problem not the phone.

Also have my own and a client's Jabra 500 working successfully with o2 Xda Execs.
Stupid question I know, but you have tried increasing the volume on the headset buttons?

I did try everything , volume etc , contact jabra and try there sugestion
such as :
could be a pairing issue, or a bad speaker on the BT500. Please try a reset and re-pair of the phone and headset first:
Turn the headset off.
Plug the headset charging cord into a wall outlet.
Connect the headset to the charging cord for 5 seconds.
Disconnect the headset.
Remove the headset from the phone Bluetooth menu.
Turn the phone off.
Remove the battery (and sim card, if removable), and hold out for 5 seconds.
Re-install the battery (and sim card, if applicable) and turn the phone on, but do not touch any settings.
Turn the headset on.
Put the headset into pairing mode by pressing and holding the pairing button until you see a steady blue light. Release the button.
Perform the pairing procedure for the phone.
SIMPLY IS NOT WORKING
try with friend V3 razor and same thing

I also have the BT 500 + jasjar
It just works better than the BT 250 which was my past one.
To be honest, what I have on my jasjar is the new O2 rom upgrade (and that should not do any difference) I think there is something wrong with your jasjar
Maybe you will be forced to try the bad solution HARDREST try the headset with other phones before doing that

i beleive it's the headset that has the problem, since you tried it with another phone.
i have the bt500 with the imate jasjar and also the kjam and it's more than perfect for me, the sound is cristal clear on all the phones i tried on.
maybe you should replace it with a new one.

What I mean is not a factory mistake in the headset
I think the phoen is getting complex and some data have been lost (possible)
By the way, I haven't installed the BT headset fix, yet it works fine.

try to pair 2 bluetooth hands-free devices on one phone

Hello at all,
I've searched a long time for a solution, but I really couldn't find it.
I have an
- Ameo (same like HTC x7500, with original t-mobile WM6 german) and a
- LG Style-i HBM 700 - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001CZICHA , for calling.
I had bought a couple of weeks ago a wunderful bluetooth bracelet LM 959. http://www.lm-technologies.com/ci/index.php?/products/details/38
Both, the bracelet and the Style-i want and could connect to my Ameo over the same profile (phone profile, hands-free).
I've tried a couple of days, but it doesn't run as I want:
I want that the bracelet will shake when the phone is ringing (that's normal).
And then I will accept the call with my LG Style-i. If the call finish, all should go again in stand by.
If the next call arrive, the bracelet have to shake first, and so on.
But reality is hard and bad:
If I power on the bracelet, and power on the LG iStyle the bracelet go in sleep and the LG Style-i is active connect to my Ameo. No action's could make the bracelet function, only if I power off the LG Style-i. But than I couldn't take a call (not with this brick on my ear)
I think both are using the same profile (hands-free). And only one could go in active, or ?
Is there a way to let both function, and as I want ?
I would be lucky for any suggestions.. any idea ?

I'm afraid I can't answer that with any experience, but I think the bluesoleil driver will allow connections to two devices.
When someone with more experience comes along, does anyone know if it is possible to connect two devices with different profiles.
I wish to connect my car kit (HFP) and an audio streaming connection (A2DP), to a kaiser, and keep them both connected.

ping, I want infor on this to for my ameo before I buy the bracelet!!

new status:
I've seen, that all entries in the registry between the braclet and the LG style-i are different. Not the channel entry : both are channel 0x2.
I've changed the channel from bracelet in the registry:
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/Device/001b3500023b
from 0x2 to 0x1.
Bracelet connect with Ameo furthermore, but situation doesn't changed.
Now I will change the ROM from 6 to 6.1 (from original t-mobile 6 to sogarth 6.1) this weekend.
let me see ...

bad story ... sorry.
I've changed the ROM from original t-mob WM6 to sogarth WM 6.1 ROM but without any changes.
I've no solution to connect the bluetoorh bracelet AND the Bluetooth headset at the same time.
Any other idea's ?
please help ...

Not possible afaik. I personally tried it when I had two Motorola s9s and only one would connect at the same time :S.

Does anyone know if you can connect to *different* profile devices?
I want to connect a HFP device and an AD2P device.

Hello all,
I'm currently using wm6.1 build 20273.1.3.3 cook (FInixNOver v3.6) on my Trinity with iDream BTSH01 + Nokia BH-102.
The BTSH01 can act as either "Hands Free" or/and "Wireless Stereo" (A2DP).
I can select which mode I want to use on that device by using the standard "Bluetooth Settings-->Device" menu.
The BH-102 is only an "Hands Free" device.
I successfully can listen music on the iDream and make/receive calls with the Nokia.
As you may guess, my main use of these combination is on the car! the Trinity is used as my MP3 player, my GPS and my phone with ear bud, while its battery is being charged.
The BH-102 works very smooth alone! just need to power it on, wait 2-3 seconds to ear the beep and start to use it, even while receiving a call (it happens a lot while I'm driving!).
That particular cook has the BT sound volume adjustment working very well!
The BTSH01 is tricky to pair... I always have to start it in "pairing" mode and do a BT search on the Trinity (I have a button on the "Today" for that!) to have it work properly. If I not do this way, the music is shopped in 500ms pieces !!!
I can only launch the music/sound app (Mortplayer and/or GPS app) after pairing it. If not, the sound goes out through the internal speaker.
By having the BTSH01 decoding music, the HTC becomes slower (still ok for the GPS app)!
Now, combining both... I'm using both since a couple of days and I still have no procedure to have both running ok (BTSH01 as "Wireless Stereo" and BH-102 as "Hands Free") at first shot!
Sometimes the BTSH01 start to decode my calls, sometimes the BH-102 is not able to pair ... it's always been asked the PIN code.
But, once both are up, I have no more troubles and can start my trip!

i'm using an r35 itech set as handsfree...although it can be switched to include a2dp. however, i also have a sony ericsson car kit that's set for a2dp or wireless stereo. thus, when i'm in the car my u1000 automatically connects to the ericsson and thus streams the music. any calls that come i can answer through my r35. when i leave the car, the ericsson then disconnects with my u1000 (either through range or when i shut off the ignition). my r35 is continuously bonded and thus any calls are answered through it.
i don't think it's really possible to connect 2 bt devices with hands free profiles at the same time. i tried that with both my r35 and ericsson kit....if the first device bonded is my r35 a message appears on my ameo indicating an error when i try to set hands free. it only accepts wireless stereo.
cheers

I don't think so. In my opinion it's not possible. u can use stereo.
