I just got the Motorola HT820 bluetooth stereo headphones and I cannot get them connected to my computer properly. I plugged in my Actiontec bluetooth dongle and it installed on my pc. Then I paired my HT820 with the computer. It shows as paired, but it doesn't have any services.
Anybody got any advice?
i had some bluetake bluetooth headphones never could get them to work prob with vidcomm or ms bluetooth stacks well they worked as headset but not as stereo good quality headset when i picked that profile they just dident play
did get them to work with the toshiba bluetooth stack but not great
and then the trail ran out
maybe it's the fault of the headset or maybe the bluetooth stacks never confirmed it
Is there any place to get generic bluetooth drivers with A2DP? Or does the bluetooth dongle have to be setup for that already?
i tested with a logitech bluetooth dongle and a belkin dongle
and both worked with ms, vidcomm and toshiba bluetooth software on the pc
but as i mentioned not all profiles worked or worked well

For anybody who is interested. I have a bluetooth headset HBH-200 and also a Fortuna Gpsmart bluetooth gps running Tomtom2, they both work at the same time without problem. When the headset/handsfree issue is sorted out I hope to be able to use the full capability of the HBH-200, will that include being able to listen to mp3 or the output from tomtom through the headset. The reason I posted this is because I have heard others that cant get 2 devices to work at the same time on the bluetooth. I am using the standard xda2 without patches for bluetooth.
what make is the hbh-200?
lmk cheers mate

I've been using a Parrot CK3300 car kit which uses the HandsFree profile for many months. Finally it appeared that I could use the new Scosche A2DP-based receiver to eliminate the need to use a headphone jack. Of course there always seems to be a catch : Every time I connect to the Scosche it disconnects the Parrot. Likewise, when I connect to the Parot, it disconnects the Scosche.
Anyone have enough understanding of the Broadcom stack to shed a little light on my dilemna?
EDIT> I have confirmed that I can connect to the Scosche A2DP device and a Motorola HS850 headset (which uses HandsFree) at the same time, so it appears to be related tothe Parrot CK3300.
I am interested in using the Blackberry Bluetooth Gateway (with my TP2) to stream A2DP music and my navigation app voice instructions to my RV stereo using the 3.5mm aux output on the Blackberry Bluetooth Gateway.
I don't actually own the Blackberry Gateway yet, so if there is a better product, let me know.
Question is, can I use the Gateway bluetooth for the A2DP streams and still send/receive calls on my Jawbone Prime headset at the same time.
I know that the A2DP audio will not continue when I am on a call. That is fine. But can I maintain connections to 2 bluetooth devices simultaneously, one for A2DP and one for phone calls?
Was just messing about with the phone to see if i could and it worked perfectly. Not sure about two different audio devices but you can use 2 bluetooth devices at the same time.
i have been able to use an external bluetooth gps reciever (with tom tom 7) and my bluetooth headset at the same time.
So i bought me a pair of motorola bluetooth headphones, and a bluetooth dongle for my laptop.
I can connect the headphones to my phone just fine, but i cant seem to be able to connect my phone or the headphones to the computer. I can, however, transfer files over bluetooth from phone to pc.

Anyone know whats up? The computer finds the headphones, but when i go to connect to it, it says "detection of service failed".
Is there any way to distinguish between a "Bluetooth mouse" that uses a USB dongle and a Bluetooth mouse that will connect directly to the Xoom? I have 2 wireless Bluetooth Logitech mice, but neither will pair with my Xoom.
I've seen some lists of Bluetooth mice for other tablets, but nobody really clarifies if they are connecting via a dongle or not.
Any insight is appreciated.

Bluetooth is a standard; the dongle that comes with a bluetooth mouse is a courtesy if your laptop doesn't have bluetooth integrated (and not necessary if it doesn't). There are wireless mice that come with proprietary wireless dongles, but that's not the same as bluetooth. You can tell if it's really bluetooth because it will have the bluetooth logo on it (it's an oval with a stylized "B" in it. Google it). (There is more than one bluetooth standard, mostly those are for different audio connections, but for a bluetooth mouse produced in the last few years these make no difference).
Edit: Also, I'm assuming you're using 3.1, which enables bluetooth mice. If you are (like me) waiting for the 3.1 update, bluetooth mice will find the tablet but you can't use them...
