Bluelooth headsets that actually work (Orbit) - General Accessories

Hello,
I would Welcome advise on which bluetooth headsets people use with their orbit.
I currently have a Motorola HS850 which although does connect to the orbit, does not transmit any sounds. (except for a beep to say its connected !)
So anyone who has a Orbit running the o2 WM6 and actually has a working bluetooth headset to make calls on I would appreciate knowing about, thanks.

Steeve,
We've tested the QStarz range on the entire current HTC range and O2 range and they all work fine. The BHQ-360 is popular and cheap.

Hope that helps.

Any help - Greatly appreciated!!

Bluei Bluetooth GPS wont talk to SX 66

Hello, I am the proud owner of a Siemens SX 66 Bluetooth version 1.0.0 Build 3500. While I have no trouble with the BT perofrmance regarding headsets (Jabra 200 and Siemens own ) I can't get the Bluetooth GPS (Bluei http://www.bluegps.com) unit I have to send data to my Street Atlas 2005 application. It seems to pair with no trouble but not effectively send data.
I am afraid to change to build 3900 as I have seen posts that it adversely effects the headset performance. Does anyone have a suggested fix or a suggestion for a different GPS unit that is known to operate with this build?
Aside from this issue I am very pleased with the device having just moved over to PPC from a treo 600.
Thanks to anyone that can help.[/i]
I'm not sure my situation fits your case but I have been using the Navman Bluetooth GPS 4100 with my O2 XDA IIs without any problem. However, the software I use is CoPilot Live Pocket PC 5 and that software manages the Bluetooth GPS communication by itself without having me manually bonding it through the O2 XDA IIs Bluetooth manager interface.
Bluei doesn't seem to be a well-known brand so I suspect their GPS is the problem. If you want, you can go out to CompUSA or Fry's or Best Buy... and try to buy a Navman Bluetooth GPS to see if you can make Navman Bluetooth GPS work for you. I guess once you know your Siemens SX66 is not the problem you can then decide to keep that Navman Bluetooth GPS or return it to find a better deal somewhere...
The Navman Bluetooth GPS I'm talking about looks like this

Most store seems to carry the 4410 models but the GPS itself are essentially the same in every models.
Hope it helps
As much as I hate to have to buy another GPS unit I think you are probably correct. Thanks for the advice.

Best Bluetooth GPS for TomTom 3 & XDA 2i

Hello all, I am new to the forum.
I have just got my 2i and love it. Want to do the satnav thing now, but would like to know the best BT gps unit to get, i have a Jabra bt headset & Satnav enabled car (screen mount) cradle.
As per my flag i am in the UK.
Many Thanks
I may not be popular for saying this but a cheap wired gps will give you a solution without the attendant agro of bluetooth.
I have an XDA III (ROM flashed to XDA2i O2 UK) and I use Tomtom 3 with the Tomtom Bluetooth GPS. So far I have had no problem at all. My wife uses it with the HP Ipaq 4150 with the same result.

ooh, they look quite good.. do they allow you to listen to music from the xda exec?
I would love to use my HT820's with my MDA PRO
As far as I know, know patch or fix yet.
Lucky I have an MDA Compact as well and have a bodged bluetooth stack for a2dp works a dream.
Carrying 2 phones.
Lucky for me contract up for renewal next month so will look for a device or phone with a2dp support.

they are supplied with a detatchable cable cable for non-bluetooth audio.
headphones have 2.5mm headphone socket and come with a 2.5-3.5mm stereo cable.
(now looking for a 2.5-2.5 stereo cable)
Wait for Windows Mobile 5.0 AKU 2.0 which adds A2DP + Pushmail support.

is there a release date for that? a quick google didnt show much..
microsoft has already issued AKU 2.0 to the OEM. it's the OEMs turn to implement it in the ROM updates and release it to the end users. check with your OEM as to the release date and post back.
thanks,
approx Mid March for AKU2
Just so you guys know, it is out in QTEK flavor.
A2DP and Push E-mail.
It is on the XDA DEV FTP

Hope they're nearly as good sound quality unwired as wired, coz they sound FANTASTIC. Never though they'd be as good as my Sony MRD-EX71's.....
EDIT: Not quite as good as wired, but damn close. I'm a happy bunny - upgrade went without a hitch, as long as I followed the one in the wiki! Now to go grab all my O2 settings....
Jabra BT620, just got them....they're amazing.... only problem is my Sony Ericsson k750i doesnt let me hear audio on the headphones just phone calls...any ideas on how I can get a2dp or even avrcp on that phone?

Bluetooth Earpiece Recommendations Please!!

Hi everyone!
Could you all please tell me which bluetooth earpieces you use without any problems and issues please?!
Looks like my trusty Motorola HS850 isn't so suited to the Orbit (I had posted of the problems in a thread some days ago - but no responses )
I'll go out and buy a headset once I know your responses as to known working models ...
cheers guys!
Dennis! West London UK!!
I am using the Sony ericsson HBH GV435 and it is great with the Orbit and if you look on Amazon.co.uk you will find it at a very cheap price.
*Bump* Bluetooth Earpiece Recommendations Please!!
*just bumping this*
Any other suggestions recommendations please ?!
I deleted and then re-paired my HS 850 Motorola over the weekend, re-tried a call and it's the same as before - I can hear the other person, but my voice isn't transmitted. Annoying!
Cheers for more recommended and working fine headsets!
Dennis! West London UK!
SonyEricssson HBH-608 works perfect for me.
Hi! I am using the Plantronics Discovery 655 and its really good.
One of the Accessories forum recommendations is the jawbone. New one out there that sounds very very nice!
edit: www.jawbone.com
I'm using the Jabra JX10 which is absolutely superb. Works flawlessly with the orbit.
