Making a TyTn "look" like a phone over Bluetooth? - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

The reason behind the question is that I want to pair a Tytn with the new Mercedes Bluetooth kit. Unfortunately, the Mercedes kit searches for devices which identify themselves as Phones - rather than Pocket PC's and so it ignores the Tytn completely. Does anyone know of a way to hack the TyTn to make it show up as a Phone?

same problem here with the Volvo car kit (apparently is a Motorolla kit).
any ideas are appreciated.

But how about Pocket Land (www.compegs.com) and OziExplorer from D and L software?

If the software accepts NMEA (the GPS standard) then it should work. We currently have one on test (a colleague not me ) and very nice it is too!

HP's bluetooth headphones

Hi,
ok... well... I've been wondering... has anyone bought HP's new bluetooth headphones, and if so, how is it going? Most importantly, does HP's software work on a MDA II/III? I would really love to get them, but I don't want to buy something that won't work... Also, I have a bluetooth dongle on my desktop that I would like to make work with these headphones... I use Linux and bluez, which seems to support A2DP... but has anyone tried that yet? Does it work with Windows?

BMW Driver's Please help

Hi guys,
Just found this forum and it looks great. Anyhow, i'm the middle of buying my first ever phone/pda and have decided to go for the TMobile MDA III/xda iii.
I have one major issue that needs answering prior to buying it and hopefully someone here might be able to assist.
I drive a 320d sport touring 2004 model, this has the standard bmw business tape player but also has the Bluetooth Phone option installed by factory, currently it works like a dream with my Nokia 6310i.
So, my questions is, Does anyone know if the mda iii would work in my car.
I have tried many BMW forums including bmwland/e46fans etc etc and no one can give me a answer, i have also checked the X5 forum however its not listed on there list.
I hope someone can assist as its the only thing holding me back on buying the unit.
Thanks to all.

Well I would say to give it a go, there shouldnt be any reason why it wouldnt work. If it didn't work and you bought it from an o2 shop you always have 14 days return guarantee. I have a BMW 7 series but didnt go for the bluetooth option as I have the wired factory telephone kit fitted but just give it a go.

No waY. The MDA III does not work reliably with BMW bluetooth. I've spend hours patching the darn thing. Sometimes it works, most times it doesnt. Somethings badly screwed up here.
stick the widcomm bluetooth drivers on the phone, I bet ur using the crappy microsoft bluetooth stack!
I had the Xda IIs working in an X5 with the standard BT kit, although it occasionally decides to disconnect. No such luck with the iDrive version of BMWs BT kit, pairs up but doesn't work at all. I can't really recommend it for use with a beamer, maybe after the first ROM update is released!
From previous posts on here I'd say the MDA version of the phone has even worse BT so definitely don't go there!
thanks for the reply guy's.
have decided to go for it anyway as i need somethng like a phone / pda.
Cheers

Nokia Pop-port to MiniUSB

Hi fellas!
I'm the somewhat happy owner of the HTC Artemis (P3300). In my car is installed a hands-free kit from Nokia (due to my earlier phone was a Nokia 6230). As I don't feel like getting a new hands-free kit (if it's even available) the question is if I can convert the plug coming from the Nokia MBC-15S into the miniUSB port of the P3300 (and probably other miniusb-based phones).
The plug in the Nokia device is called a Pop-Port - I found a brief description of it on http://pinouts.ru/CellularPhones-Nokia/nokia_pop_pinout.shtml ..
You guys know if there's a product out there ?!
Thanks in advance!

i was also wondering if the above was possible?
this would go some way to getting this hermes working with a nokia car kit..
I'll ask around..

2018 Subaru Outback

Hello Everyone,
I traded in my 2014 Subaru Outback for a new 2018 Outback. In my 2014, I removed the original stereo unit and put in a fantastic Android HU with SYGIC GPS, that unfortunately won't fit in my new car. (The old unit is for sale, just sayin')
For the past two weeks, I've been looking to replace the crappy "Starlink" unit in my new 2018, but I'm having difficulty finding one that will install with the current faceplate. I contacted the company that I bought the original one from, and they said that their engineers are working on it, and will take about 6-8 weeks to come up with one. Has anyone found a suitable HU for a 2018 Outback? The issue I have with the HU that came with the car is that the only way to communicate with it is through Bluetooth using a smart phone via the USB input or with Bluetooth. That means wires. It also means having a smart phone, which I don't and NEVER wanted to have. I use the original Motorola V3 RAZR Flip Phones for a number of reasons, and they work just fine.
OR - Does anyone know how I can hack into this "Starlink" unit that came with my car? All I want to do is perhaps root it, or at least install some of my own apps and also to be able to use my hotspot and download stuff. There has to be a 'code' or certain buttons to press to get into this machine, but I haven't been able to find anyone smart enough to figure this one out. I'd be happy to compensate anyone who can help. I did just that with the older HU, so if you can help, just let me know.
Thanks in advance.
