I was wondering if anybody here had the same combination and wanted to share the experiences.
My only problem is that the steering wheel button that is used to make, answer and end a call doesn’t support the press and hold option for activating the voice dial.
Wanted to know whether there is workaround for this.
Thnx
Borrowed nephew's X5 last weekend and my SPV-M5000 mates with the built-in for receiving and making calls. The only problem was I could not get my phone book into the X5 as I could with a P910i.
I know that the X5 phone also works with a Nokia 9500, but again, no phonebook. Think I'll try my son's P800 and see what happens.

Just out of curiosity:
Was thinking of getting a bluetooth caller ID clip like the Sony HBH-200 and also another bluetooth headset like maybe a jabra bt500?
Would the Universal be able to connect to both the headsets and work well?
Just out of curiosity, would like to be able to view the caller id number but use a different bluetooth headset to answer the phone.
Sounds like a lot of work, but I figure it's better than getting the BT800 where you have to look at the number and then put the headset on.
Well, if any of you out there has got 2 bluetooth headsets, would you mind trying it out?
Thanks.
I tried it last nite and it did not work as you expected. It was a great idea though. I was using a HBH-662 (Sony ericson) with a caller ID screen, and another BT headset. Only the second BT headset rings, and the HBH-662 did not respond.
I was thinking before the same idea, but I was expecting a watch (like Casio) that can display the Caller Name via BT. If anyone knows such product (watch) exists, I would love to know.
The Casio watch is a really good idea, but have you seen the size of the watch? It's humongous.

Yah....big watches.
However, came across a software that allows you to link to multiple Bluetooth devices (I think that's what it does).
Can somebody try and see if it'll work with 2 bluetooth headsets then?
There is a trial version of the software:

If anybody gets a chance to try it out please post the responses here.

Qtek 9000

Headsets:
Motorola HT820
BT800
Paired both headsets to the device.
Both devices rang on receiving a call.
With Jet software, it was able to display caller ID.
Was not able to answer the call from the HT820
Didn't try answering from the BT800
HT820 was not able to Voice Command after Jet software installation
Will test it out some more tonight.
You could just get a nokia HS-12w that way you can see who is calling without removing your earpieces !!!
I'm just being vain.
Would like to use a stereo headset without wires and also have a caller ID unit just to view the caller. Was thinking of something like the Nokia that you mention to clip on my front pocket just to view who's calling.

hi,
in another thread this is being discussed. appearently this is a "feature" not a bug anyway it is not connected to a special bt headset, but to all bt headsets (afaik)
Well...
After extensive testing, I have realized that my dreams of being vain is not possible....at least until somebody starts selling just a bluetooth caller-id display only - like the watch.
Anybody out there know of a bluetooth caller-id diplayer only besides the big ass watch?
Anyway, here's how I tested it.
Bear in mind that this is what I wanted to do.
Since I have a Universal, pulling it out and then twisting the clamshell, takes too long and it's too cumbersome to do.
So I wanted a caller-id display to display the caller-id (name preferably) without opening the clamshell and answer the phone via a bluetooth stereo headset.
Figured I test out the theory that having 2 headsets, 1 with caller-id and one with stereo where I can view the caller-id on one and answer the phone on the other one.
Tried it and true enough as posted above, it doesn't work.
Until there's a new bluetooth caller-id device out there, l8r.
You can check the new product from Cardo Systems. It's more or less the thing you want. On piece with caller ID and the normal headset.

Hi all,
I've got the a MDA Vario II as a personal phone and also a BT enabled work phone.
Does anyone know of a bluetooth headset that would allow me to simultaneously connect to both phones? I.e, either one rings and I can answer from the BT headset.
I've tried out the Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 which says it has the multipoint function but I believe only allows one phone connection and the rest have to be audio.
Anyone using the Jabra BT8010 (or any other headset) able to test it on two phones for me??
Thanks.

No, you have to hang up one before you can answer the other call. I tried Jabra, Plantronics, Nokia and Motorola, and they are all the same.
CameoTabby:
Sorry, I probably didn't state the question properly...
I don't wish to answer the calls simultaneously, just to be able answer either one that rings (separately of course) using one headset.
I have both my phones on me during working hours and want one BT headset where I can answer either of them.
I hope this makes more sense (!)
Jabra 8010
the 8010 can do what your asking; same situation as you 1 work phone 1 personal. Paired both phones had someone call on both phones head-set rang for both phones. Small problem though one of the two phones will be tn he primary phone ie. both phones ring at the same time the primary take the call. I just got this head-set and I haven't RTM yet so there other things yet to discover. Oh something I haven't figured out yet(probably because I haven't read the manual) if your talking on one phone and the other rings can you switch between the 2 phones? But YES you can use 2 phones with this head set.
Thanks for confirming that Harry Tuttle!
I already took the chance and ordered one earlier!
Will post back to see how I get on.
no problem, I'm a Jabra fan I've had it for a week and its pretty comfortable for all day use haven't had time to try out the stereo half of it,but so far I'm happy with it.
some plantronics (640 + e suffix) phones also work
Normally primary is last phone that initiated connection - so if you press redial, you will go out on primary. If both calling, answer will accept primary. So make sure you pair secondary first, primary second.

In this case, the Plantronics models I mentioned will work the way you want. And, I personally have used 510 and 640, they both work great. One additional information, if you initiate a call from BT headset, such as using voice command, the headset will default to the last device (phone) you used.
Well I totally forgot about the postal strike here in the UK 12/13th- so will probably have to wait until Monday for device to arrive!
@ shasta
Thanks for the info- I believe I saw the same thing quoted in the manual I downloaded.
@ CameoTabby
Yes, i think there are only a few headsets that have this capability- and I did have a look at the Platronics ranges- but none that I saw had an LCD screen.
Hello Folks.
Yes another Newbie (to this forum that is). I've recently inherited a Orange SPV M600 and I'm have great fun customizing it to my preference . Got it unlocked, (lemon squeezy) . What I'm looking for is a recommendation for a good car kit that will allow me to use TomTom (wired) and the phone hands free. Hope someone out there can help.
Cheers.
Hello Moto
I'm using a Motorola HF820 without problems. Its mono, no music sound from the speaker. But it allows you to take it off the car and carry it to gym, so you'll have a loud speaker in case you don't listen the PDA cos' of high music volume (very common here in all Gyms in Argentina).
I cannot coment fully on the thing, cos' I'm using WM6 and the patched version of MS Voice Commander, but I succesfully receibe calls and answers them by the press of the HF820 button. I also press the button and say "CALL Cecilia at Mobile" and it sent the command, but after dialing the number nothing happens, however this happens with WM6 Touch Xb by Gullum, and it worked fine with Fantastic 2.04b, of course, when it decides to turn on the Bluethoot in the device, witch is rare.
Also I'm able to send any VC voice command, at the device response is better than speaking to the integrated Prophet mic.
Hope it helps.

here's one, great value for money i think
i have the earlier version of the above car kit, doesn't come with mic, can only be used as a phone holder & speaker for gps...
Hey!
I'm a proud owner of this bt stereo headset. Everything works fine except of small hissing when playing music. Can't do a thing about it. If anyone can help... thanx a lot. But my main question is: Qtek has a Voice recognition software. Is there a possibility, how to make one of the buttons on the headset, starting the ms voice recognizer software and make commands only by talking to headset? Because I don't see a meaning of this software if i have to pull my qtek of my case and open it, then push the button on it, and tell the device "What Time Is It?" because i can see it on the display already.
Thanks guys
Just wondering if anyone else the same problem here.
I have spend the whole morning tring to pair my Touch Pro2 with my Ford Mondeo (5 second job with the Iphone). I have finaly paired it after much F'ing and Jeffing only to find it is not clearing down properly when I end calls with the steering wheel controls.
If I use the phone to answer and make calls the handsfree works great. However if I use the controls with the car to navigate through the address book and dial from here the call is fine but never clears down. I have to turn bluetooth off on the phone to force the car to clear the call!
I had a similar problem with an old XDAII and loaded BTexplorer on to the phone and this cured it but I can't find BTexplorer for the TP2.
A tad frustrating because I was using a Blackberry before but banged on to everyone how useless it was so I have convinced the company to bin them all and go with these, how stupid I will look when the whole company fleet of cars are Mondeo's!
Someone please save my shame with some ideas or know where I can get hold of BTexplorer for WM6.5 or something similar.
I have noticed that winmo seems to be picky about how calls are made and answered with a BT headset (or radio for that matter).
Look in the menu for something about turning hands free on when in a call. Usually I just call voice mail. Sometimes this helps. While I don't have a Mondeo, I do have a few BT headsets and a BT radio in my car. Its not very intuitive, and it sucks, but that's winmo.
I just got my TP2 yesterday, after fighting with sprint for about 6 months and at least 6 junk TP1s and will have to do some experimenting with this new handset.
The most annoying thing for me is the crapshoot when answering a call winmo will sometimes not put it through to the handset. Leaves me shouting "HOLD ON A MINUTE!" while I fumble through the menus to get the audio routed.
If nothing else, I feel your pain. hehe

Try the solution in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591322
It has fixed problems with other car kits caused by the TP2's Widcomm bluetooth stack.
Thank you!
Thank you dwboston and the other guys, this fix worked a treat for me and most others by the looks of that thread.
