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

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,

-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

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..?
Hi all,
There was problems with the BT Stereo headsets for 02 ATOM with the previous ROM. I would like to poll everyone's opinion if the latest ROM updates have resolved the problems, and which headset is now working beautifully with ATOM.
Please advise, thanks!!!!
itech BT stereo headset works good with my Atom
BT headset Logitech 0228A works fine
BT headset Logitech 0228A works fine
Voice Dialing Not Working
My Plantronics 640 headset works well, but my Voice Dialer thru the BT headset doesn't work with the 0402606 ROM--though it did with the original 0102306 ROM.
Any resolutions?
anyone try with Samsung SBH100? It is a A2DP spec stereo headset. BT 1.2.
Using Motorola HS850 easy connection no problem. But can't get the voice dialing to work.
Jabra BT620s w/ latest firmware
* A2DP - ok but random hiccups. Perfect quality with Pc
* Vol - Too soft on Atom, had to preamp. Perfect quality with Pc
* AVRCP - Perfect but only in WM10
* Phone - Sometime fail to answer a call by headset when music still playing, must manual
We wish the next firmware would improvise the A2DP, great feature but buggy...
bro, how much u paid for the jabra bt620s in SG?
Third headset and no success
I need a small headset, what I can use for Skype on my Atom and to listen to mp3. How's the Plantronic 640 working? Does it support the A2DP profile? I don't wanna have one of these big Stereo BT Headsets... I also tried the btaudio program, what works perfectly for the sound, but the mic quality is too poor, nobody understands me by using skype...
Please give me your recommendations which one works 100% and supports all the features...
Thanks
Ellork
Motorola HT 820 works great with Atom Exec. Audio is loud and clear with lots of bass, and WMP 10 pauses on incoming call (press left button to answer) and resumes after hangup (press left button again). Good thing is you only hear beeps for incoming call not a 110db ringtone...You can use your Atom charger to charge the headset too.
???
hi guys, "BT headset" + Atom will get "real" stereo sound, right ???? I know that Atom does not have bluetooth with "A2DP".
Hi,
I have this strange problem. I'm using the Black Majik LE and a i.Tech Arrow X headset.
I'm able to pair both of them successfully - completing with the i.Tech Arrow X added (that's the only bluetooth device i have).
However the headphone icon does not appear on the taskbar and i cannot make/receive calls through my headset, it seems as if its not paired, all the audio/mic goes through my Hermes.
I checked that the bluetooth is on (blinking blue light), resetted my Hermes, delete the pairing and re-paired, resetted my headset, all with no avail.
To confirm that my headset is fine, i paired with another phone (Sony Ericsson) and its working fine, so its definitely a problem on my Hemes.
Has anyone encountered this before or have any suggestions on how to resolve this?
Thanks!
I have the same problem with official WM6....
Suggestions anyone?
I to have this problem, I could connect my bluetooth headset fine before to listen to music but now all music is played out of my dopod 838 pro and doesn't come out of the headset at all its like its not there and i've also done all those steps you mentioned Patrick.
Bluetooth headset works great on my official WM6. I've tested with both Jabra BT 620s and Pulsar 590A. I can receive phone calls in of middle of the music. No problems at all.
Maybe it has something to do with your BT headsets?

I flashed to vp3g's v3.0 and the BT headset works fine.
Flashed back to Black Majik LE and the BT headset works again
Weird.
Thanks for all your help anyway
I've flashed back to WM5 headset works fine but back in WM6 still not workin for stereo only for phone calls.
This may seem like a silly question, but under bluetooth connections, did you try selecting (and holding) the bluetooth device and then selecting the option that says "Set as Hands Free" (or wireless stereo if you want to listen to music)? It seems like some older rom I had didn't require this, but now I have to do this each time the device is turned on or off.
First of all, I would like to says big thank to all rom cooker. You all did a very great roms. However, I still have a little problem that annoy me a lot...
I had connected the stero bluetooth headset with Hermes and choose both "Wireless Stero" and "Headset" profiles in bluetooth setting.
Then when there is incomming call, the Hermes will not ring. So I had a lot of miss calls.
However, if I disable the "Wireless Stero" profile in bluetooth setting, the Hermes will ring normally.
I used to use the Prophet before and there is no problem. The Prophet will ring normally although I choose both profiles.
The stero bluetooth headset is the same, iTech Clip Radio.
I had tried on many roms and found the same problem. So I guess that maybe I have to modify the registry setting to enable ringing on "Wireless Stero" profiles. Can somebody help me to solve the problem please???
I have the same issue and assumed that's how it worked since I just got this Jabra BT8040 that supports wireless stereo. It would only ring through my headset when wireless stero was enabled. If there is a way to get the phone to ring also that would be great. Right now I do the same thing as you, disable the wireless stereo until I need to use it.
My guess is this is by design since all sound is routed to stereo headset then so would the ringer. This isn't an issue for me since the Jabra BT8010 I can turn on/off stereo by simply pressing a button on the headset.
Sorry don't know of a solution.
Thinking about it I guess you could use something like mortscript and make a button that turns stereo pairing on/off to make it simpler I dunno.
I have similar issues with the PAYS rom, when listening to music via my BT earpice (Jabra) where you click the answer button on the earpice it then takes the music from the device and plays it through the jabra ONLY for about 5 seconds and then defaults back to the device?
Any suggestions would be appreciated?
in my tp2 i noticed that when i have a wired or bluethooth headset conected and someone calls me it only rings in the headphones! this made me lose several phone calls.
in other devices i had , i used a reg hack for it to ring in the device speaker and headphone,so i tried in my tp2 but it does not work as the reg hack is related to the microsoft bluethooth stack.
therefore i m asking for help and also if other tp2 users can confirm this issue.
my bt heaset is a jabra bt3030.
thanks
I am having the same problem with my TP2, the headset becomes useless for this reason.
I use a Sennheiser MM-200 headset, bought this headset not to have earphones plugged in ears all time but only when i have incoming call.
Not sure what to tell you about the wired headset, but is your BT using the normal headset BT profile or is it connecting also with A2DP/Stero BT? That could be part of the problem.
In the Bluetooth menu it is connected with: "Stereo Audio" and "Hands-free"
you can switch off the stereo audio function and stay with the hans-free function only. it works fine, but you have to do it manually.

I made a soft reset and now the phone rings even with stereo audio enabled - whats good for me, but i do not understand why
Hi Faria,
There is a setting in the BT config to transfer "ALL" system sounds to the connected audio device, this may be your issue. I don't use a wired but my Rhodium rings in the headset and on the device after removing this option.
Cheers,
Beasty
I really hate this feature too. I am used to listening to music on my BT hedset. So when I get home I would just take them off, put the phone on my desk and go about my business. But if I don't disconnect the headset now I won't notice it ringing... which can lose in lost phone calls.
Hopefully someone will find a workaround.
Start>Settings>Connections>Bluetooth
First tab (gears)>Advanced>Audio
"Play system sounds on remote hands-free device" = uncheck
Just tested and works for me.
I get the normal ringtone from the phone and the regular "beep" from the stereo headset.
FYI, this is basically the same information as listed two posts up...
On my old phone if my headset was in and my phone rang it would say call from and state the persons name through my headset. The ringer itself wouldn't play through my headset nor the phone. And now I can't remember but I know it beeps in my ear but I think the phone plays the actual ringer also at the same time. But if I checkmark what you guys are unchecking will the actual ringer play through my plantronics bt headset and not on the phone.. I kind of would like that for if I am out and dont' want my phone to ring all loud I would rather the ringer play in my ear and was wondering if that's what happens when I check that. Mine was unchecked when I got the phone.. I don't havea bt headset I use for music just talking mostly when driving..
