I originally got my M2000 with BT 1.0.0.3500.
It worked OK with my Southwing headset but I heard that getting the upgrade to 1.6.0.600 would improve the sound quality.
I upgraded and there was very little improvement, if any.
I then noticed that the connection with my headset was very erratic.
The headset would connect ok and the m2000 would repond correctly to me pressing, double-pressing or tripple-pressing the control button on the headset. If I made a call from the handset it would be transferred to the headet. However, this would only happen for one call. Once I had made and terminated one call it would get kinda stuck and not reset itself so I could not use the headset properly. The only way I could fix this was to turn off the headset, do a reset on the m2000 and then switch on and reconnect the headset.
Finally got fed up and downgraded back to 1.0.0.3500 and it's all OK again.
Anyone else had similar problems ?
southwing and bluetooth
I just bought a southwing bluetooth headset and couldn't wait to get started. Little did I know that the pain was just about to start.
I am using an Orange SPV M2000 with the 1.12.22 WWE ROM and Radio version 1.04, build 2200 of bluetooth stack 1.00 build 2200. Not sure if this is the problem.
Anywaythe Southwing sounds fine when i use it but the volume that its sends to the other party is about 10 times to low and even when yelling I can't be heard well. Is this a known problem with either the Blue Angel phones or SouthWing headsets? Is it easy to upgrade to a newer bluetooth stack? Is this something I should do?
Sorry to reply to your question with another question but do you find the volume levels acceptable on your SouthWing?
I have had a lot of complaints from callers when I use my southwing including too quiet, static and background noise, voice cutting in and out, sounding like I'm in a tunnel etc.
Fortunately it has also fallen apart, i.e. the grey rubber eargrip bit keeps coming off the main body.
I bought mine at expansys so they said I could just send it back for a refund.
I have just bought a Cardo Scala 500 (also from expansys) which should arrive tomorrow.
It looks pretty cool and the reviews says the sound quality is excellent.
It also has an alternative to the round-the-ear grip which is a little stem that clips onto the arm of your glasses. Exellent for me as I wear specs.
I would seriously think about upgrading your ROM to 1.31.00 and then patching your BT Stack.
Hi! Just want to know which bluetooth headsets are compatible with PDA2K. I spent a lot of time in the shop yesterday, but for the life of me, I couldn't get the SE HBH-600 or the Nokia HDW-2 to work with it.
The HBH-600 got paired, but as soon as a call connected, the audio was switched to the handset, with the headset being disconnected. As soon as the call was dropped, the connection to the headset was resumed.
As for the HDW-2, I couldn't get it to connect. I really need a bluetooth headset pronto, because of the incidences of cellphone-snatching here in Karachi, so please could you guys help me out ASAP? Thanks in advance!
Hi There,
I use the Jabra 250 without any problems
Cheers
Pointy
I have tried 4 different headsets with the Blue Angel.
The current winner is the Cardo Scala 500...which is nice because its also the cheapest.
I'm using the older Sony Ericsson HBH-35 with mine and seems to work just fine. My only problems are that the battery on this one is dying a bit lately, but that's hardly the phones fault!
I am using the G2 Bluetrek as sold in O2 shops under the O2 brand.
Works...intemittently...sometimes great - sometimes very noisy - sometimes it looses connection! I also find that it seems to go to the highest volume setting at the start of every call which hurts my ears!

Well I have been using a Plantronics M3000 on BT Builds 3500 and then 3900 without any problems
Hallo!
I am using SE HBH 300, works fine with BT Builds 3500.
My older BT-headset Jabra 300 did´not worked, (could not answer 90% of the calls)
/M
Hi.
Im using the HBH 600 with both BT Build 3500 & 3900.
I dont experience any troubles with the 3900 build, only the poor range and sometimes a little crackling sound, but this seems to be the same for all BT headsets with the BA.
You can get the Build 3900 from the ftp in BlueAngel/Cab_files/Bluetooth Upgrades/bt3900.cab
I am using the Nextlink Bluespoon AX. Works fine for me.

I have a Sony Ericsson HBH-660 Akono and works great (except for the fact that the headset's display just shows the number and not the name...)
Joao Caldeira
I'm using the Jabra BT800, and it works perfectly, except for the caller ID showing just the number, and an annoying amount of static when going through an solid object (like my head :roll.
This is with bluetooth build 3500, and all the other headsets I've tried with this phone (SE HBH-65, HBH-300) have exhibited exactly the same problems with static through objects... would appear that the phone isn't giving the signal enough juice, or something? :?
Chris
Just took my old G2 to the O2 store and complained about it being so crap. They replaced it with a new O2 (Bluetrek?) one. Inital opinion is that it is a little better but not a lot - still noisy and complaints of it sounding bad from the other end.....
I'm using the Motorola HS810 and it works just great, actually after a soft reset the volume on the headset is too loud !
HBH-65 seems to work ok for me.
bosjo, it's good to hear that you have got the HBH-600 working. I am unable to do so. I had build 3500, but upgraded to 3900 after reading your post. Still no difference. I had noticed before that when I monitored the headset connection using Bluetooth Manager -> Active Connections, the status would be showing me a full signal, and intermittently, it would become red, meaning that the signal would keep going to zero, and coming back to full. This was even when the phone was hardly 6 inches away from the headset, in line of sight. I'm going to return my bluetooth headset tomorrow, and I wonder if I should get my handset replaced as well. I'm worried that since the problem wasn't fixed by the 3900 build, something may be wrong with my bluetooth radio hardware. Anyways, I am open to suggestions.
Look @ this... might help

I have a Bluespoon AX that works perfectly!!
Before that I had a Nokia HDW-2, it worked good too!
Hi all,
It seems the Nextlink Bluespoon AX gets a good press here with the XDA2s - so, where did you guys buy yours???
R
I'm using a bluespoon ax but mine definitely has that crackling sound. I'm using 1.0.0.3900. However, it's definitely not the headset because I've tried it with a magician and it works absolutely fine - friends told me it sounded the same as if I was speaking through the phone.
Sounds like the XDA2s bt stack still needs a lot of work - lets hope a rom upgrade comes out soon which mproves it - there realy is no excuse O2!!!

I have the BT800 and so far my experience with it is pretty negative.
Other than the fact that it just doesn't sit will on my ear, all the people that I have phone conversations with tell me that my voice keeps cutting off every couple of seconds. They have a hard time understanding what I'm saying.
Anybody else have this behaviour? Which BT headset do you guys recommend?
I am also looking for recommendations for a new BT headset, but let me also contribute with what I had (lost it now).
I had the Bluespoon AX. It was by far the most comfortable thing I have ever put in my ear. It is so small and light and comfortable, that you almost forget it is in there, and at the end of the day, you find it in your ear by accident sometimes.
That said, when I lost it I did not shed a tear. Using it with Universal was quite painful. The sound would crackle if the AX and the Universal were on different sides of my body. Not a distance issue, but somehow an interference from my body in between.
The AX is useless in any environment there is noise and/or wind. I suppose they could not use a directional mic because the mic is so far away from your mouth (practically *in* your ear). It worked fine when I was sitting in a quiet place though, but then...
With the Universal, only the handsfree profile is available. While this worked fine for outgoing calls (can make voice dial calls and all), for some reason on incoming calls, when the AX is active, Universal would not ring. The only call indicator is on the AX and if you don't happen to be wearing it at the time, you will miss the call.
I have been reading up on other models. The AX2 apparently has better reception, but I am not sure about noise and the BT software problems.
The digital model has noise cancelling, but it is way too expensive to buy it on faith alone.

Same problem with my Motorola H500... anyone any ideas how to avoid this apart from buying another model
I have HBH 662 (Sony Erricson). Its very tiny, formerly it did not fit easily in my ear, but now I used to it, though I do not like to have it on all day long. The sound quality is too low/not loud enough though I set to the highest volume already. The battery life is not good, it barely survives my every day calls, I'm not a super call person, just average.
Things that really annoying:
- The Caller ID display is too small to read and it only shows the first half of the caller's number then scroll the remaining digits.
IT DOES NOT show the caller's name. Have been patiently enough to wait for this to be fixed by MS/imate/other vendor whatsoever. If anybody has a workaround, PLS.. PLS... PLS... share....
- The ringer is very low and intended to tell you there is a call if you have it on your ear. Does not have a vibrate function. If the Universal is in silent mode, most likely I cannot tell when there is an incoming call.

Bt Headsets
I am using the Bluestreak G2 headset which seems to work O.K. and Has About 8 hours of use. Background noise is acceptable but it doesn't seem to do noise cancellation.
Have noticed that if WIFI is active with BT the headset drops out a little. Seems O.K. If Wifi is off & BT is on. Not ideal if you want to use Skype with BT.
Have tried the following with my Exec:
- Tekkeon ET3000 (with display like the BT800 but better), great battery life, good volume, okay quality sound, okay comfort, no problem with call transfers from the Exec
- SE HBH-608, fantastic battery life, very comfortable, good quality sound, very comfortable, okay volume (seems limted by the Exec)
- Jabra BT800, okay battery life, okay comfort, good sound quality, okay volume, seems a bit slow transferring calls between the headset and the Exec
Have you tried putting the names/numbers also on the SIM Card?! I read somewhere that headset profile is using the SIM Card's phonebook...

No, it does not work either, even though the contact name is saved in the SIM card. Have been searching for workaround/solution but have not found any good answer yet.

I have the Globalsat gps338 ,and it works very well ,use with gpstuner ,and teletype gps software which is slow to update on the Mda pro but the bluetooth gps pair well with the program and with 9 satellites showing indoor .Any Sirf III chipset will be ok.The only thing that does not work in the universal is the gpsinfo program that comes with the gps338.
Anyone with the gps338 ? works well with mapapolis too.

Thx Riceburner!
figures! I've been checking the Jabra site for an update repeatedly but of course as luck will have it, as soon as I stopped looking...there it is.
I will update my BT800 tonight and see what happens. Tell me, did you have the same problems? Voice kept cutting off? All around bad performance from this headset?
thx.
motorola H700, great audio, great look, light and good batteries and......................same mini USB charger
Well...no improvements.
I updated the firmware on my Jabra BT800 and although I noticed an improvement in the time it takes to transfer the call to the headset, I still have the same problem with my voice cutting off.
I tested it repeatedly by making more than one phone call and the result was always the same. While I'm speaking, the person on the other end says that my voice keeps cutting off. Therefore beginning or end of words are totally cut off. Very frustrating to have a conversation when the person on the other end keeps saying "what?".
If nobody else is having this problem with the BT800 and the Universal, then I guess I got stuck with a faulty headset?
i have the hbh 662 sony. not impressed with it to be honest. unless i am less than 1/2 metre from it, the quality of the line deteriorates alarmingly. I was hoping to be able to stick it on the kitchen table and then walk around having a phone call. I can't do this.
Also had ideas for having the universal in my pocket, and using the headset almost as a standalone phone. This doesn't work that well either. tried the headset with a orange c500 , and it was so much better.
also upgraded to the latest radio update (1.04.02). this didnt do anything for the quality of the line either.
is it the universal or the sh1te ms bluetooth stack? how does the jabra bt 800 compare?
(i have the orange m5000 with a qtek rom)

Hi HeartofDarkness,
Thanks for your comments and please reply some more questions if you free.
-Phone Singal Indicator is correct or not?
-Is Incoming call Ring loud enoguh to hear if you put it in your shirt pocket?(With highest volume level)
-How is sound quality for listening MP3 songs?Good,acceptable,bad?
-Can it call to speed dial numbers?
Thanks in advance
Hi there
1 - There is no phone signal indicator; only an icon indicating whether you're online or the Tekkeon's connected. If it's signal strength you're looking for, it is not displayed on the headset screen;
2 - Hummm... In a silent environment, I'd say yes, probably, although you should know that I have pretty sharp hearing. I don't think it could be heard if it where in a jeans pocket, for instance, with the earpiece on the leg-side. But with the Tekkeon, it's not really a problem, because it is *extremely* comfy, and you can keep it on your ear and (litteraly) forget it's there after a while. The downside to this is that it's nearly impossible to run with it, for instance (I mean even to catch your bus or your train), because the ear-fit is pretty loose;
3 - Music quality is on par with other good non-stereo, non-AKU2 headsets, meaning: really bad. I'm talking about the kind of quality you hear when being put on wait when you call your bank, for instance. It's not because the headset's bad, nor because of the bluetooth connecion, it simply is a bandwidth problem. Hand-free mono-aural headsets are only designed to render frequencies in the human voice range, which is clearly too narrow for correct musical rendering;
4 - No, no speed-dial, only last dialed (through a short-cut, which is a good idea), and a list of the last received calls.
Overall sound quality - and I especially mean how well people on the other side of the line heard me - was (I say was because I don't have it anymore) quite good - on par with Sony-Ericsson and Jabra, which are IMHO references in that particular area - *except* in windy locations. And I mean that even a breeze caused my interlocutors to go "what ? what did'ya say ?" over and over again. That's where, IMHO, Tekkeon should have included even a little bit of DSP-based noise suppression.
I now have Jabra BT-800, and well, I'd be hard-put saying which I prefer. The Tekkeon was 10 times prettier, that's for sure. Connection indicator was a big plus with the Tekkeon too. I'd say the Jabra is better about sound quality in noisy places, but the fit is even looser, it's bulkier and although quite pretty, not nearly as pretty as the Tekkeon. The Tekkeon felt flimsier, especially the jack-type attachement between the ear-clip and the headset. Dunno how long that would have lasted before it became too loose and rendered the headset unusuable, my money is on "really not very long". Jabra's got more autonomy, and has a vibrator so that you can keep it in your pocket and still be sure to get all calls.
Hope this helps.
Hi HeartofDarkness,
Really thanks for your detailed explanations. It helps me a lot in thinking to buy which headset. Until now, there is no new headset with Screen Display is going to come out as far as I saw.
Thanks
Yeah, picking up *the* BT headset's quite a challenge.
Personnally, and having been through quite a few of them, I'd really like to see a cross between these three:
- Sony Ericsson HBH-608 for its DSP technology;
- Nokia BH-900 for its sliding mic. that comes almost all the way to the mouth, improving by the ten-fold the way my interlocutors hear me;
- Tekkeon ezTalker 3000 (which is the same as V3 you're interested in) for its OLED screen.
Or else, I'd really love to see Motorola come out with a version of their HT-820 head-phones that includes a screen. I don't know how they did it, but the mic. in these head-phones is really, really good, people can hear me loud & clear even in windy / noisy locations, and sound quality for music listening is actually quite good. Granted it's a bit bulky, but it's extremely well designed, so....
Hi heartofdarkness,
How long it takes to display the Caller ID after the call ring on the phone for V3 BTH8. Is it too long?
I am also looking at following stereo Bluetooth headsets. Has anyone experiences? Both are with small earphones unlike big headsets of most stereo. And they are with Caller ID display.
-SonyEricsson HBH DS970
-Nokia HS 12W(Also with FM radio, Stell Cover)
Display of the name is instantaneous: instead of a number, you get a name.
The two headset you show are pretty nice although I hate the fact that you can't change the ear-buds for better ones. In that respect, I'd definitly go myself for the Sony Ericsson rather than the Nokia, because the buds seem to be derived from the fairly good Sony EX-51. The Nokia buds just look like 5 $ earphones....
Can anyone tell me if this headset has a blinking blue LED when in standby or when talking on it?
I don't remember if it was actually blinking, but there is an icon that shows it is connected to your phone, on the screen, even when in stand-by mode.
Jabra BT 800 vs V3 BTH8
I would recommend the Jabra. I own both of these units. The Jabra has a much clearer sound. Callers used to complain about the cutouts and poor sound quality of the V3. The Jabra also has an inbuilt vibrator, which means that you get the call even in noisy environments. Used with the Jetware plug in you get caller ID showing the surname of the caller. You can't get the address book however. I think that this is a WM5 limitation.
The V3 however has several advantages. The LED readout is easier to read than the LCD of the Jabra. The V3 is also rock solid on your ear, and feels like it will never come loose. The Jabra feels like it will fall off in a strong wind or when you lean your head.
The V3 uses a membrane that fits into your ear which means it cuts out background noise, which is good and bad. The Jabra uses a louder signal but doesn't seal to the ear canal.
Incidentally, I get the ring tone in the headset about 2 second before the phone makes a peep.
Hi!
I have the v3 and I've been using it for almost 10 months now with my dopod900. I eventually got used to guessing the caller since it couldnt read from dopod. but i upgraded the rom and now it could read the address book.. but still no caller id.
Does anybody of you have problems with jetware? im planning on installing it.. thanks!

whenever i answer yes to the " extension is not loaded... ?" My Plantronics 510 stop working with my jasjar . I have to answer no, so it works, but I must say that even this " no" improved a bit the qyuality of my speech , as most of the people claim that there is a lot of interruption while am talking .
Can some body tell me how I can defeat this interruptions ? would sonyericsin HBH 810a helps ?

I have been using its predessor called ClipS and have no complaints to make. Its simple items like this that puts the Ipod in its inferior place. Yes, my Universal is my mobile media player as well.... my External USB disk too ..... my scrapbook notepad ..... my GPS navigator .... oh .... forgot to mention the all important fact that its my phone as well
Edit: I do have 1 complaint. A car charger for the headset does not exist.

Yes, but beware of the counterfeits from Hong Kong.
Also, it is not a stereo BT for listening to music, but excellent for making phone calls.
Tekkeon EzTalker Digital
The Tekkeon EzTalker Digital ET3000 is the best I have come across. It has a screen and Caller ID so that you dont even need to open the JasJar to know who is calling. Also at USD 80 it is pretty cheap. But one thing is that you have to install Jetware Mobile so that Caller ID names display.

Hmm .... why not allow Voice Command to announce who is calling you?
The Best by far
I have tried numerous ones including: Bluetrek, Plantronics, Sony Ericsson and a couple of jabra models -BT800, 125 etc(Which all worked), but my fav one is the Jabra JX10. Superiour sound and DSP for louder volume as the ambient noise levels gets louder.
gopi51,
Want to ask you more about the Tekkeon ezTalker Digital (ET3000) on how the storing phone number works.
- Does it store both incoming and outgoing numbers?
- Does it store both the name and the number?
Can it access the PPC Contacts?
Thanks.
Jabra bt8010
like a previous responder I have tried my fair share of headsets: for sheer all-day comfort Jabra500 fits comfortably around the ear and will stay put under some extreme circumstances, its not stereo. Functionality the Jabra 800 and with the Jetware software you get caller id and name but to me its not comfortable I looked at the Jawbone watched the video and actually tried it out, and DAMN it actually works like they say it cancels noise, but it looks kinda goofy, not in a bad way but it BIG. Then I got the Jabra 8010 its sleek no flashing lights just function; caller id number(anyone know if Jetware is compatible with this)can handle two phones ie. you can pair two phones with it and answer both(not at the same time) call 1 comes in on phone A you answer it talk and then hang up and then call 2 comes in on phone B you can pick it up and do the same thing. You can also add frequently called numbers to it(believe 30) and call straight from it, OLED display, and stereo bluetooth with remote functions , haven't gotten around to playing with that just yet. Anyways thats my 2 cents. Enjoy

2) Stores only the number. However during Incoming call both the number and the name as stored in the Phone Contacts is shown one on each line with scrolling if its too big to fit.
3) Yes phone can access PPC contacts. However since display is small and it goes through lots of numbers it is not a very convienent feature.

Thanks gopi51 for answering my questions.
I think I have more question if you do not mind,
Does it access the Contacts (Outlook) or the SIM Address book when you press the "down" button?
If it does access the Outlook Contacts, does it only give you the default number (ie mobile, home, office as its being set in Contacts) or it also list down all of them as separate entries like:
Fred mobile
Fred office
Fred etc..
Thanks again!

- Does it store both incoming and outgoing numbers?
- Does it store both the name and the number?
Can it access the PPC Contacts?
Thanks.

stock eargel did not fit well..kinda modded mine and am using jabra minigel now. its more comfortable, plus just today, i just figured out how exactly i should position the eargel. now, im using the jawbone without the earhook.
Jawbone vs. Jabra X10
Jawbone weighs about double, so my ears are fine!
Hey hey,
Bought the Jawbone. Wow, realy nice bit of kit.
Works real well so far.

Where to buy Jawbone in EU?
I tried to find an online shop in Europe, which sells this Jawbone headset, but had no luck.
I read, it should be available at UK Carphone warehouse, but I can not find it on their website.
