Hi,
I have a Parrot car kit ck3000 (circa 2003) and when I tried it with my XDA2 is kept turning the kit on and off, thus the radio two. I swapped my Sim into my Nokia 6230 and this solved the problem.
I have now just ordered a XDA Exec and fear it will do the same. Is there anything I can do?
It may be the Parrot software but it costs about £50 to get the kit to upgrade the software and I feel I may as well replace the who kit if I am going to may that because there are better ones on the market now.
Thanks

I was just wondering if it was possible to use bluetooth to connect my XDAII to my nokia 6310i thats in the wired car-kit, so I can use the nokia kit as a handsfree for my XDAII??
I've set up a pairing between them , but the nokia keeps saying connected XDAII, then immediatly disconnected.
I tried this software too:

Any one got any ideas??
Thanks
deja-vu
I am trying to do the exact same thing.
I have a nokia 6310i, with car kit installed in my audi.
I have just got a Orange SPV M1000 and have been trying to pair the 6310i and the xda2 together, with the idea of using the 6310i + car kit to use the existing kit.
I have paired them, but straight away disconnects at the 6310i.
Does any have any ideas why this can't be done.
Same problem here. The 6310i I have is connected to a Nokia BT car kit CW1A I think.
Can't seem to connect with either that or through the 6310i.

I'm currently thinking about buying a bluetooth car kit for my M2000, but don't know whether to get a cheap one (Nokia CK7W etc) or go the whole hog and get a Parrot one.
I would like to know of current users recommendations before I splash out on one.
Did you choose a kit in the end? If so what did you go for?
Got a Parrot CK3100, worked fine, only bugbear is when you get a call with a witheld number, the last recieved number is displayed on caller ID.
Battery life is alright, used it with full charge from 21:30 till approx 14:00 next day.
Would recommend, I've tried using Nokia B/T car kits and the echo is terrible, the Parrot is really good.
We had to uninstall a load of Nokia kits that O2 had originally recommended, the outgoing sound quality is awful (a bit like you've got your head in a bucket in the next room!!).
We ended up with Sony Ericsson kits, much better

Yeah I've got the Nokia problem, looks like I'm going to go for a Parrot CK3300 with the integrated GPS.

I am considering the CK3100 also, question does the display show signal strength, carrier etc?
Thank you
The Parrot website shows compatibility etc.... take alook. Can't remember what the address is, a search will out it!

I have read the compatability guide however my experience with Parrot is no matter what the guide says it may not be 100% functional. This is why I would rather ask someone that actually uses the product.
parrot are best for qtek if 3000 evolution without display or 3100 with display. i have qtek s100 with parrot ck3300 an destinator pn an all works fine.

Hi, I have a Qtek S110 and a pre-installed phone car kit with bluetooth. The car kit is the usual one that comes with the new VW Passat. The craddle that came with the car for Nokia6100.
In the car manual says I that to activate bluetooth connection I first need to put mobile in the craddle and then press a couple of buttons. However, naturally QTEK doesn´t fit the craddle and I am not able to link the car kit with the phone.
Any suggestions? I´m getting desperate...

Nokia CK7W?
Not much to go on here, but it sounds like you might have a Nokia CK7W car kit. In which case head on over to Nokia's web site and you can download the manual - it will walk you through pairing over Bluetooth.

hi i f it is the nokia ck7w kit with the round wheel for control i too have experienced problems in the end i purchased a "parrot bluetooth kit" this works fine.
I am trying to work out the best way to set up the following in my car:
1 ) GPS on my Exec using bluetooth and TomTom 5.2
2 ) Bluetooth handsfree phone use using Motorola Razor
3 ) Car mount kit with charger.
I intend to have all of the above properly installed so no loose wires and mess.
From everything I have picked up from others the Brodit is the best solution for a mounting kit, so i will definately order that.
My dilema is I do not use the exec as a phone as it is just not pratical for that, so whilst i really like the idea of the Parrot CK 3300 I am not sure if it will pair with my Razor to use as a phone and the Exec for bluetooth GPS operation at the same time. If this is possible then it makes life easy. On the rare occaison that is use the Exec as a phone in the car it's own handsfree is pretty good any way. I also understand that the Parrot GPS uses the Exec speakers rather than the Car radio for the spoken directions so there is not need to have it access the car sound system.
The other alternative is to get the Parrot CK3100 for the handsfree car GSM bit , buy TT 5.2 then find a separate GPS receiver.
Does anyone either have experince of doing this or and idea of the best way.
Any suggestions here will be greatfully received.

I've paired my CK3300 before with my XDA Exec and a Nokia 6600.
Used the XDA for GPS and the Nokia for handsfree.
When you pair the XDA with the CK3300 you get the list of devices on the Parrot and you get handsfree and serial port - You will only want to pair the serial port part of it. Just pair your RAZR as you would with a regular headset and it should all work.
Good luck!

Thanks for the quick reply. That is very encouraging to hear. It really simplifies things if i can go down that route. I will order the bits on Monday, unless anyone has a better solution for this. Also can you confirm if the GPS spounds come throught he Exec speakers rather than the Car stereo?
Do you have any other advice about this?
Charlie
Yes the GPS sounds come through the exec and not the car kit.
Just trying to think if there is anything else you need to be aware of.......
It all should be pretty easy to be honest - just make sure when pairing the device that you use the advanced settings and choose pair with a windows ce device.
Things are almost perfect. I'm in love with my Orbit. I've downloaded TomTom 6 to it and works great. I've also discovered that on the back of the phone, not only is there a socket for an external GPS but on the other side there is socket for I assume an external car aerial I have been using the Take n Talk car kit from THB with their modular cradles for some time now. Having an external aerial and a fully wired car kit is ace. Now all I want is the cradle for the Orbit for perfection!! If you haven't used a proper car kit you should check out the THB range. If like me you use a THB kit now please please please lobby them to produce the take and talk cradle for the Artemis, orbit HTC3300 etc. The contact page is: http://www.bury.com/technologies/GB/company/2/contact
and the main site is: http://www.bury.com/technologies/GB Don't forget in the UK fines will increase if you're not using a handfree car kit!!
Well, I got the above installed and had some questions,
1. How did you connect using the external aerial?
2. The camera button always comes on when I put the phone on the cradle. What a pain.
3. The cradle does not have any support at the base - phone would fall off when brakes are applied.
Did anyone else had this problem. I am using the Take and talk BT cradle with this car kit?
Thanks.
I also used THB for my previous phones . I had the same car kit in both our cars so we could swop cradles and when I upgraded my phone I simply bought a new cradle. I spoke several times to THB and theywill not produce the cradles for P3300 or P3600!...shame!
I have found a better solution I have a blue tooth car kit with its own sim card & aerial and I can couple up to 4 different bluetooth phones!......this way I now carry 2 phones in the car!
here is the web address the model I have is Audio com
