Bluetooth With the 8525 And HS850 - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

I dont know If I am in the right area but I am frustrated right now I am using an 8525 with wm6 VP3G version 3.0 radio 1.48 and the motorola HS850 bluetooth. I paired the devices together and I can hang up phone calls with the bluetooth and I hear the end beep when i hang up but I do not hear any sound on it like when I am checking my voicemail. Is there a bug or am I doing something wrong? I enabled it as a handsfree device and as a serial device but no luck is it just supposed to be a serial device by itself? I would appreciate any help

this should be in the accessories forum but try removing and repairing with just hands free.

It seems that it is a compatibility problem. You can check there : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=322019

BT headset voice dailing

I am getting a little worried here.
It is advertised everywhere that the xda IIs has voice dial, which to me reffers to me talking into a bt headset and it calls that contact.
If this is not possible, can fonix ispeak sort it?
The device comes with fonix voicedial software, but it does not work through the headset. I have my MDAIII mounted on the windscreen in the car and manage to use voicedial to make calls with over 90% accuracy and then talk through my jabra bt headset.
Which unit do you have PDA2K or IIs? I haven't seen any postings yet comparing the two devices, O2 may have addressed some BT issues before launching the IIs.
I won't have one (IIs, already have PDA2K) till next week.
getting the 2's next week. new officail date is the 15th nov. so should recieve it on the 16th
So what does it take to make this work? is it impossible. Can we not do something?
it take it that this product is using the mic hardware and not bluetooth mic?
http://shop.store.yahoo.com/cellpoint/padrblvoreha.html
Anyone come acrross this before: (scroll down to Kai’s Bluetooth Headset Patch 2004 )
http://www.pocketpcmag.com/_archives/sep04/bluetooth.asp
could something simular be done on the xda's
Or is this something where only ever going to get to use with bluetooth v2?
read this an help me please
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12824&highlight=
Its good to see progress being made but the main problem still is a hard ware based. The mic and speaker in phone hardware need to be bridged with the ppc... which gets me thinking.....as we can speak into ppc and listen to the caller then once we BT the call it was bridge/switch it.... dont understand why something so simple and a much required feature is missing :?
Hi,
I have installed the trial version of MS command and it seems to be doing the trick... I have a qtek 9090 and I did not see any installed software for voice dialing... Is it only on PDA2K?
Thanks.

MS Command doesn't support bluetooth headsets either.
From the MS blurb: "Bluetooth Headset Support - Voice Command does not support using a Bluetooth headset to initiate a voice command but you can use a Bluetooth headset during the phone conversation."
So its the same as fonix. You have to speak the dialling command into the device, and it only transfers to the bluetooth headset when the device starts dialling out. If you can put up with that, fonix works pretty well.

Well as much as I was looking forward to getting a PDA2K or SX-66, I feel that this is a MAJOR drawback that has me thinking twice. I read that your cannot initiate VOICE calls using a BlueTooth headset no matter what software you are running. Is this accurate?
If so, then why can the Audiovox SMT5600 do it by the way of voice tags?
Thanks,
Frank
Previous ms smartphones and pocket pc phones have not supported the bluetooth handsfree profile which would allow voice dialling. Since the new devices now support it its up to the software developers to implement it in their software. For example, using my SE HBH-200 on my imate PDA2K i can initiate voice dialling on the headset but on the imate there is nothing to interface with. If the Audiovox can do it there is no reason why a more powerful pocket pc cant do it as well

BT800 + JasJar ... No Mic Working?

Hi,
I just recived my BT800 today, and it pairs fine with the Hands Free profile, and i can hear things fine through the BT800's speaker... but it doesnt seem to be transmitting voice? at all... ie. like the mic is turned off or somthing?
Anyone got any ideas?
BTW, i've allready updated the firmware, that didnt make any dif to the mic not working
Regards,
SiriX
Thanks for the information about the available upgrade, didn't know that.
But NO, sorry, cannot help with your issue as I have no such problems with my Jabra.
I use the iMate ROM
Ruud
BT800 - same problem
I have the same problem.. can hear loud & proud but no microphone.. although it works on voice calls. Will post a fix if I find one - anybody else got any suggestions?
Just got mine as well. I already upgraded firmware to 0.32. When I paired it with my i-mate Jasjar, it said "Bluetooth Headset" and "Seria Port" - I checked both, not knowing why I'd want the serial port, but thinking that it might be for general speaker and mic use. Still don't know...
New firmware 0.322 didn't seem to help. I could for sure be doing something wrong. I'll do more research and get back to this board.
are u using it with the universal?
i pair my bt800 with the universal and all i see is handsfree option, no serial port.
my problem is that the sounds cut, and i´ve very much noise on my conversations, in special in my talk...

WM6 Bluetooth Headset Problem

Hi there I'am new here.... seached the forum and google a lot but didn't find an answer...
Just flashed from XDALive 2.0 to Black 2.0, radio 1.38.00.10 and HardSPL v6 with help of the manual of mrvanx.
My problem with the rom of XDALive 2.0 was that TomTom 6 keep hanging serveral time. The headset (bluetooth build in CAR, peugeot 207) was working perfectly. After the upgrade to Black 2.0 the TomTom problem was solved , it works perfectly now. The only what came up was the bluetooth headset probleem. The connection is ok but I don't hear any sound??
Flashed back radio ROM to 1.35 no results...
Found something interesting...
When its not connect with the carkit, turn on bluetooth, dail a numbers and turn on the Speaker, it will eventually connect to the carkit automaticly (and I got sound thourgh the carkit!
When searching for bluetooth devices it will find the headset and the carkit goes into 'calling mode'. When dailing a contact directly after that the carkit will work. But the next try it will mute the radio but doesn't give any sound on the carkit.
When allready connected with bluetooth on the carkit it wont give any sound thourgh it.... strange.. Tried serveral other ROMS but they are giving me the same problem...
Widcomm BT Stack (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1072773&postcount=72) also tried, didn't help... anyone some suggestions?
PS.: My old nokia still works, it can't be the carkit..
Question for you. after you setup your carkit do you go into the bluetooth and set it to your handsfree device. There seams to be a few changes to the way WM6 chooses the handsfree device if you have several set up.
I have to change in WM6 bluetooth which headset I am using when I switch between the 3 headset I have. I have to go to Start\Settings\Connections\Bluetooth Click/Hold on my headset that I want to make active - you will get a Menu wit Edit/Delete/Set as Hands-free/Set as Wireless Stereo (last should be grayed out if it doesn't support Strereo)
Choose Set as Hands-free
After doing this my headset works fine. Try it and see if it works for you.

When searching for a new bluetooth device WM6 sees a headset and the connection is successful. The 'Set has headset' is availible and is set. The option Wireless Stereo isn't support I think, its not availible as an option.
When calling you can turn on/off your headset back to the phone. That works but there is still no sound on the headset.
balck 2.0 does have issues. i also have same with motorola hs850.
only just found out. havent fixed.
bt connects as phone pad shows it.
headset bleeps on connect call and disconnect call. but no sound is sent or received.
always set to headset though not hands free.
will have to test further but definitely an issue. i didnt ask jj out of respect for his withdrawl of support.
I don't think it a problem with Black 2.0. Too many people say it works no problem.
I'm on black and all three of my head sets work like a charm. I have 2 Motos an H810 and a H700 and an Plantronics 510. I also have been able to use internet sharing, BT file transfer, and BT sync with Black 2.0
But it could be an incompatability between the WM6 M$ BT stack and your hands free kits.
Test your phones with another BT device and see what you get.
Same problem with HS850

I have exactly the same problem, and I didn't solved yet....but I've found this bypass:
When the phone rings I answer with the bluetooth handset and receive the beeb on connect call.....then I close the BT headset and as soon as I re-open it, I have the headset working.....I have to do this for every incoming or outgoing call.
My BT headset was working well with the black 1.2.
This is the only issue I've found in the black 2.0.....I think is the most stable and fast rom.
Bye prengo.

My other Bluetooth devices are working fine. My bluetooth GPS receiver works just fine with TomTom... no issues there.
Just flashed back to XDA-Live (v0.20.1) and the headset works without any problem.
Only thing now is Tom Tom 6 hangs directly after the start of it. Anyone familiar with this issue?
thx
PS.: what is the differance between the Black 2.0 and XDA-Live (v0.20.1) ? other bluetooth driver versions besides the os version? Maybe there is a way to combine..?
A common thread seems to be the HS850
I have the exact same problem with my HS850. I get the call connect beeps but no sounds come through. The issue exists if the headset is connected when the call is made. If I make the call, then flip the boom and turn the headset on, then I get sounds no problem.
I had this issue with both LVSW 4-08 and Black 2.0. I eventually went back to XDA Live 0.20.1 and my BT issues all went away.

WMXL .20 is based on a beta WM6 build and Black 2.0 is built on an RTM build (non-beta)
With Moto HS850 too.

Exactly the same here with HS850. Tried everything after 20070320_RUU_Hermes_WWE_3.23.0.0_1.34.00.10.exe but kept getting no sound.
I have experienced the same problem with my 407 hands free system. My Orange SPV C600 works without a problem, it does not show signal strength and battery level though. Using my M3100 with any of the following listed below works perfectly:
HTC English QTEK_001 2.11.255.1 03/07/07 2.11.255.102 1.38.00.10 32.71.7020.12H OS 15673.3.3.1 AKU 3.3.1

XDA-Live (v0.20.1) English 3.22.110.1 01/04/07 None None 5.1.195 (WM6) OS 17217.6.0.0
I have found all the above roms work perfectly with my TomTom 6.030 software. I am currently using Black Version 2, I have also used LVSW roms and found the same issue with any running the OS 17736.0.2.0

It's great that you tracked this down so specifically. I guess this means for those of us with these issues, we have to avoid newer WM6 builds until someone looks into this.

I have the same problem as the others with my HS850. No audio if the headset is on when a call is made or received but if I close the boom and re-open it, viola it works again.
I did have a problem with HTweakC where I changed the A2DP setting to on and now no matter what I do I can't get it off again. I might re-flash and see if that helps.
I don't know if it matters but I have MS voice command on my phone, even though the MSVC16BThack doesn't work anymore. (my phone is an 8525) Hope someone can figure this out, I really like the speed and stability of this ROM but if I can't get my BT to work I'm going to have to downgrade.

I am using Cyberon Voice Commander v2 - maybe that is why it is working for me
Hi,
I am using radio rom 1.40.30 and Black 2.0.
I am using H700 BT headset
the problem i face are opposite from you all.
If i am already talking halfway and i flip the boom to continue talking with the BT headset...it won't work.
if i receive a call and I flip the boom while the phone rings, it is ok and i can even press the button on the h700 to answer the call.
Radio 1.40.30 seems to connect with the BT headset much faster.
last time when i was using my previous default factory rom, when i flip the boom while the phone is ringing, it will take ages to connect
why not u guys try radio rom 1.40.30 also

I did a hard reset, paired the headset, and tried it right away and still had the issue so it's not VC 1.6. It has to be related to the ROM as I have the same Radio ROM for all three OS images and only the XDA Live ROM works correctly.

Sorry, what I meant is that perhaps Cyberon Voice Commander is 'fixing' the issue on my system, rather than saying MS VC 1.6 was causing the problem. Next time I hard reset I will test my headset BEFORE installing cyberon software
Ok I'm still having this problem and this is what I have tried so far:
I downgraded to XDALive v0.10 and my BT worked, but no WiFi
So I upgraded to HardSPL v6, then installed the 1.40.30.00 Radio rom, and then went back to Cingular Black 2.0, WiFi back but no BT unless headset is activated after call is initiated.
Installed Cyberon Voice Commander, didn't effect anything, still no BT
Removed Cyberon Voice Commander and re-installed MS VC 1.6 installed all the hacks and still no audio in the headset.
So it looks like it is something in the ROM that is killing the BT functionality. Maybe because the XDALive is based on a beta WM6 and the Black is based on a full version?

Bluetooth issues with the HTC TYTN II

I recently purchased an AT&T Tilt (TYTN II phone) with Windows 6.1 Dutty Series... since my motorola KRZR took a dump on me....Quite an upgrade...I am trying to use the Motorola H700 Headset from my KRZR on to my HTC, I can get the headset located in the device menu but I cant get the HTC to pair up with the headset on a continual basis. I am also having an issue connecting to a Bluetooth GPS Antenna. I can locate it it just the same as the headset but it wont pair to the HTC nor ask an authorization code.
Is this a bluetooth glitch? Can I somehow reload the driver for the bluetooth? Perhaps I am doing something wrong but I never had a problem linking bluetooth devices before.....
On a separate note....I tried doing an activesync via bluetooth on my Dell Laptop and it again can be located on both ends but I can get any services to work on either side...
Help?
I have just received a new HTC TyTN II on Orange that has the same problem. My old one (windows mobile 6.0) had no problem with my Motorola H12, but the new one (Windows Mobile 6.1) can't keep the pairing, and I have to turn Bluetooth on an off to get the connection. Always have to enter the passcode.
Version data is:
CE OS 5.2.19212 (Build 19212.1.0.3)
Processor: MSM7200-400MHz
ROM version 1.65.16.25
G 25.83.40.02H
D 3.28.00.00
Any help /advice much appreciated!
O.
Pyper,
i don't know how it is on the H700, but on the BlueAnt Z9, you have to hold down the power switch until the LED on the headset blinks red very rapidly, when it does this, the headset is in pairing mode. then you can pair the phone with the headset. try something like this with the H700. if you can, find out how to get the H700 into pairing mode before you try to pair it up.
hope that helps!

I've been having issues with my HTC TyTNII with the official 6.1 ROM and the Jabra BT500V headset. The pairing is automatic in WM6.1. The bluetooth causes the phone to be sluggish and causes call drops if the call's picked up within 3 rings or the call's picked up before it rings on the phone (Yes, Jabra rings first before the phone does). I've escalated this issue to HTC SEA Support and they've advised me to disable Bluetooth and test which I did for the past 3 months :|
I have 3 Jabra headsets (BT250, BT500, BT500V) and all are having the same issue with this ROM. I'm quite skeptical to buy another brand just for testing purposes. Do anyone else face the same issue? HTC SEA has fixes available specific for Jabra / Samsung headsets on Touch Cruise but strangely not on TyTN II
Finds BlueAnt S3 but won't pair
My BlueAnt ST3 pairs fast with a Motorola Razr V3xx but the HTC with WM6 Professional, finds the ST3, prompts for the password (0000) but always fails. On the Razr, I touched the enter key but on the HTC it only beeps. I tried the O.K. key too. The message I am getting after touching "Next" says invalid password or connection. Yes, Bluetooth is turned on and the ST3 as well.
Any ideas anyone?
Hello:
Some time ago I bought an unbranded HTC KAISER with WM6.1:
rom version: 3.29.422.1 WWE
rom date: 05/20/08
radio version: 1.65.20.29
protocal version: 25.88.40.04H
BT VERSION: 2.0/2.0+EDR
BT ADDRESS: 00:17:E8:2E:9F:A1
Anyway, I'm still having bluetooth issues with the unit. The BT works great with BlueAnt Z5i on streaming and music listening but I can't get it to work on phone calls, incoming or outgoing. No sound in the headset nor out of the Mic. Same problem with new Jawbone on calls and a Motorola HS860. Before I waste any more money I thought I'd ask about possile regedits etc. to correct this problem? Or perhaps I should consider new Roms?
Ben lurking here and reading and re-reading and getting more confused..anyone have suggestions or can point me to a probable solution?
Thanks for Listening
I finally got it to pair with BlueAnt ST3 and Motorola T305
BlueAnt ST3: I had to delete the ST3 connection, and get the ST3 in "pairing mode" then have the phone search for bluetooth devices. Doing this I got the password screen and entered the 0000. Driving around testing this, it was not as good as the Motorola Razr V3xx. Not always answering, dropped calls ect.
Motorola BT Speaker: I just received a Motorola T305 BT speaker, same process to get it paired. No voice activated call function yet. Just the two beeps, one indicating it is ready for a command and then it beeps again, and clicks out. The ST3 would talk to you and ask for confirmation.
What I have learned so far, the trick is to get the speaker phone in the pairing mode, so the Kaiser phone will prompt for password.
I am going to sell the Kaiser and buy the HTC touch HD and hope for better bluetooth functionality and reliability.
Hmmm... Actually I have no problem pairing any of the BT items I mentioned, just the handsfree doesn't work in all. Thanks for the reply...

Bluetooth drops incoming call!! :(

Hey guys,
i was wondering if anyone was facing this problem... i have the Alpine 103BT in my car which has an inbuilt parrot bluetooth system. I have noticed that when someone calls me it shows up on the lcd on the headunit then immediately drops the call! it shows up as a missed call on my tp2... but when i call using this bluetooth system then it works like a charm!
Any idea what i can do to change this? Is there a setting i have inadvertently changed?
I would really appreciate this because this call dropping really defeats the point of hands free!
Elfangor
I've got the same problem.
Just look a few posts down the list and you'll notice my 'cry for help'.
So far though, nobody's come to the rescue.
I've been reading that our phones have a unique BT-implementation, so it could be down to a bug in that area. If more people show up having similar issue, we might know.
Until then: fingers crossed and hope for sombody to post a solution.
Great! its not just me then! I hope it gets sorted! it gets on your nerves after awhile!
That's putting it mildly.
This sucks big-time: when on a business-call you definitely don't want your headset to die in you. During any conversation, really, but blasting along the motorway it's the last thing you need.
I also have an alpine 103 bt and an htc touch(elf) with onyx rom on it.
my problem is that when i make a call either from the head unit or the phone on the head unit it stops the music, displays CALLING and then after 3 seconds it displays ------------- , resumes the music, but the phone doesnt hang up. It continues the call, shows that is stil connected but you cant hear anything.
this is really frastrating as it does this sort of thing randomly and not always.
any thoughts?
Your symptoms sound a bit different from ours so it could be a totally different problem.
We might need to be paitient until one of the experts has a simiral experience and dived into the software.
Until then, I'm baffled.

Come to think of it... i have a similar problem.. when i get an incoming call it stops the music and registers a call and just a few second later..i get the --------------, and then the music comes back...by the time i fish my phone out of the pocket ive got a missed call! havnt noticed any problems when im calling though.
i tried repairing the phone to the unit but same thing! not sure what else i could do
Similar problem (I think)
Cant get a working setup in my car kit. I have a Jaguar XF SC with bluetooth handsfree...The TP2 (TMO US) pairs and docks fine, but doesnt work well. Incoming calls dont seem to be recognized, and outbound calls will dial and communicate, but wont hangup. When I hang up from the TP2, the car kit still thinks its connected and mutes the radio until i forcebly disconnect from TP2...

I've got exactly the same problem as the original poster. Mine's a vodafone TP2 with the standard vodafone rom. I've got the Alpine 104BTi. I can make outgoing calls ok but as has been described any incoming call will show the caller ID for about 1 ring and then it hangs up the call.
I've got a Jabra BT500 which works perfectly. I am wondering whether it may be the actual firmware in the Alpine device. If you look at the phone compatibility list on the Alpine website the TP2 is not listed. It worked fine with my Kaiser and this is listed as compatible.
I emailed their tech support and they said they are waiting for their customized version of the firmware from Parrot to be updated, possibly around September. I've noticed that for the Parrot standalone devices these all list the TouchPro2 as compatible, so maybe this will be fixed.
They did mention that the firmware update may only be available through the dealers. I'll keep an eye on their website. My current firmware version is 320.
I've read some other threads somewhere that people with the vodafone rom describe having problems with bluetooth that are fixed after flashing with a different rom so may turn out to be that.
Infuriating though.
It seems to be the poor implementation of the new BT stack
I have had similar problems to those described above, my Peugeot van has inbuilt BT (uses Parrot in implementation) which just misbehaves unbelievably including hanging up the current call if a new one comes in on call waiting, phonebook access is rediculously slow and buggy.
My Jabra BT8010 disconnects at random
My Jawbone disconnects very occasionally
The stack is full of bugs and HTC must know it - I reported it on their support system and firstly fobbed off, then they said they would look into it, then the log was auto closed - very convenient way to show they are meeting targets in resolving issues.
It is poor, poor and more poor. The new WIDCOMM stack looks great but doesnt really work.
Very poor for a flagship handset and they should sort something out
I went to an Alpine delearship who suggested what ukdoc was trying to do.. basically firmware update! Are you using a different Alpine website? Because the one i go to says coming soon on the page where software updates are supposed to be. I culdnt find any connection with parrot and alpine on the parrot website!
Basically what im asking is how are you going to be getting the firmware update and could you direct me towards it!
Many thanks Mate

Cant get a working setup in my car kit. I have a Jaguar XF SC with bluetooth handsfree...The TP2 (TMO US) pairs and docks fine, but doesnt work well. Incoming calls dont seem to be recognized, and outbound calls will dial and communicate, but wont hangup. When I hang up from the TP2, the car kit still thinks its connected and mutes the radio until i forcebly disconnect from TP2...

FYI, I just upgraded the radio to "4.46.25.24 - HTC" (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=549939) and the handsfree seems better...not sure it's perfect, but it does answer and hangup now...
Upgrade Alpine CDE-104BTi firmware from 320 to 360

Hi
I just tried updating the BT in my Alpine 104bti. The laptop connects to the headunit but the update tool don't find the connection, I've tried disabling the antivirus etc. But it don't see the connection but the connection is displayed on the laptop.
Any Ideas whats wrong ?
Cheers Gomez...
SOLVED
Tried again using a laptop with Xp on worked first time, Seems Windows 7 was causing issues.
