Hi everyone,
so far i've been very happy with my new orbit, had it around a week now and all is good except for now my Motorola HS 850 isn't working with the Orbit as I'd liked..
This headset has worked flawlessly with the Exec, absoloutley no issues whatsoever, change the to Orbit and now, when pressing the button to pickup an incoming call, the other caller cannot hear me - I can hear them. I then press the switch to discontinue the call, close the flip to disconnect and then wait 5-10 seconds, open the flip so it re-connects and by that time the caller may call back and sometimes it's then good and a normal convo ensues and other times it still won't transmit my voice.
Frustrating ! - anyone else had this? know of any resolutions? tips? tricks? registry tweaks etc?!
Any pointers will be greatly appreciated!
Cheers! Dennis! West London UK!
I've had the same with my Wizard. The HS850 worked great with my old Motorola phone but when paired with the Wizard I need to scream until my lungs bleed in order for someone at the other end to hear me. Very frustrating. There were a load of suggestions over here.
I tried them all and it didn't help me but you're welcome to give it a shot. If you do ever crack this one, could you PM me with details (or a link to your posted solution).

I apologize if this has been discussed, but I'm hoping someone can point me to the thread or re-cap the workaround.
Every so often my HBH-300 drops the outgoing audio during a call. It usually happens 30-60 seconds into the call. Basically, I can continue to hear the person on the other end, but they can't hear me.
I'm using the recent 1.33.51 ROM with Radio 1.08 and BT3900 drivers. I've tried the 1.10 Radio and still experienced the same one-way audio issues.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
Same problem here, it is not the headset as it works fine with a XDA II.
By the way mine only does this when the screen shuts off, as long as I keep the screen active (tap on it from time to time) then it doesn;t happen...
A fix would be nice, but don't hold your breath for Imate/XDA (HTC) to fix it, they never got BT working right with their previous phone/pda either....
Does anyone else have this problem...?
I've just got an HBH-662 for the Universal and it pairs fine and can make calls, but answering calls it doesn't work properly.
The headset recognises incoming calls and rings okay, but when you press the button to answer the call, it doesn't put the sound through the headset, only through the phone.
Maybe it's a setting I'm missing, but it's a tad annoying!

I'm not sure I can help much, but I have no problems with my HBH-662 and my Jasjar.

I too have no problems with the HBH-662 and answering calls.
Will give it loads of testing later and see if i can get it to act the same as yours
I have been using HBH-662 with JJ for few weeks and in general I have no problem. I just wish that the Caller ID issue (the ability for the JJ to send contact name to the BT headset instead of number only) is resolved very soon.
I've not had any problem answering calls. The only problem I've experienced with this headset is an apparent clash with programs like GSPPocketMagic, MagicButton and HandyMenu. With either of the three apps running, my headset drops the connection after 20-30 seconds and I have to press the button on the headset to pick up the call again, which it drops 20-30 seconds later, etc. The moment I uninstall these apps it works fine again.
How strange. It seems to have sorted itself out!
I paired my old BT330 to compare it, it worked fine, so I removed the Akono and re-paired it and it seems to be working.
Thanks for the comments folks, it's useful even though you didn't get the same probs!
Now the next issue is how to reconcile the fact that SE say this thing provides "Caller ID", which I took to mean the NAME of the person, with the fact that it doesn't do anything of the sort... only the number.
And who really remembers the numbers of their friends these days?!

It does provide CallerID name... but only with certain phones WM phones being among those that don't provide name information. It's my understanding that the problem lies in the bluetooth stack on the phone and not with the headset. I did see a post a short while back that suggested the issue was being worked on and would be resolved in a ROM update, so I have hope... but I'm not holding my breath.

Hehehehehehehe.
Microsoft 'working on' the bluetooth stack...
hehehehehehehehe. Sorry. I just find that really funny. The idea that MS are actually working on anything to do with the BT stack on WM!
I don;t really understand why it takes so long to program a bit of BT to provide something like that (or, say A2DP!). I mean, how hard can it be?
Well I'm not a programmer so I won't moan.

Any more comments if Sony Erickson Akono BT headset HBH662 really clashes with magic button and handy menu?
Hi All,
Was wondering if anyone could provide any advice on this issue that i am facing between the V-Three BTH-8 and my Dopod 900.
Recently bought a BTH-8. this unit has a OLED screen on the headset itself. the screen is able to display caller ID, signal strength and battery remaining. its also supposed to be able to scroll last received numbers and the phoonebook.
it all sounded great till after a few weeks of using it, i found that the phonebook thing doesnt work, and the noise cancelling either is not working or working in overdrive.
when making a call, intermittenly, the other party cannot hear anythign that i am saying and hears only everything else around me. so either the 'other' noise is not being cancelled out or my voice is being cancelled out.
when in a completely silent environment, it works fine.
i have brought the headsetback to the local service center (which is not a pleasant journey) and was told.....now get this..... "this unit doesnt works all that well with PDA phones".
so before i go and receive the same answer from the local dealer for the Dopod 900., i was hoping if anyone can advise me on any tweaks that i may try.
i believe you guys will be able to provide a better solution compared to the doorknobs i get at the service centers here.
Anyone? anything?
I'm having a wierd problem that I could use some help with.
I upgraded to VP3G's 3.6 version of WM6 on my AT&T 8525. Very nice ROM, BTW. When I make a call using my Blueant Supertooth II handsfree speaker, I can hear it ring but the moment the call is picked up, the call goes back to the 8525 earpiece. I can quickly switch by hitting Menu and Turn Hands-free On but I have to devote attention to the device to do so. The entire point of having the speakerphone is to not be as distracted while driving.
Has anyone experienced this or know how to fix?
I have searched the Internet and these forums for a solution and have yet to find one.
TIA!!
Hi,
I wanted everybody to be aware of this issue.
When you use a Jawbone Prime with TouchPro2, on every other handset, you can disconnect the call on Jawbone by pressing the send/end key on the Jawbone.
This function of using the end key on the Jawbone does not work on the Telus TouchPro2.
I have gone through troubleshooting with Jawbone, still have same issue.
HTC sort of seems to be aware and will not troubleshoot.
Telus Data support were useless, no troubleshooting.
I believe this may be just an issue on Telus model, HTC was not aware of issues with T Mobile version or European versions.
I will also post to PPC Geeks and XDA developers as well.
Does anyone have a solution/reg edit that will solve this issue?
Dave
same issues w. verizon tp2 and jb prime
verizon tp2. unable to end call from jb prime. voice command, volume toggle, last call commands all work from jb prime. Just can't end a call from headset...
VZW TP2 has many BT Handsfree Bugs
Have similar problems with 2 Motorola headsets and Jawbone on VZW TP2. BT Handsfree has many issues --
1) cannot end calls from headset
2) cannot consistently access voice command.
3) Voice command reads sms and email headers aloud over the handset speaker when set to speak to BT headset only.
4) Dialer touch tones come out of phone speaker instead of headset.
5) Touch screen numeric pad goes blank after ~1minute on a BT handsfree call.
6) And then there is the irritating alert that BT headset disconnected so I should put the phone to my ear -- as if I didnt know I shut the thing off myself or could no longer hear a call! I wish at least that alert could automatically clear after 5 seconds.
I filed a support request for 1-5 with VZW earlier today. Forgot about #6 until moments after I ended the call and turned off the headset. VZW rep gave me HTC Tech Support phone number. Will call them Monday AM!
I had no issue using the JB2 on TMO. I just ordered the JB PRIME and i am helping its the same.
I'm having the same issue with the HTC Ozone. No call/end button, no redial, and no voice command. However, if I reboot the phone, everything works just fine! But then, almost at random, it just stops working again... Any ideas??
If this is anything like my aging Hermes I wouldn't expect a fix from HTC ever
Its depressing to know 3 years later it still seems impossible to get a phone with working ms vc and the kicker is this phone comes with it.
