JABRA BT320s

Anyone had any success pairing the JABRA BT320s with MDA 2 and if so, do all the functions of the bluetooth stereo headset work?
Thanks.

Upgrade
Purchased Jabra BT320s and paired with Vario 2 after upgrading ROM. Everything working fine with excellent sound quality. I did not try to pair with Vario 2 on old WM 5.0 ROM so I cannot say if the BT320 would work on this OS.

I DID try to pair a BT320s with my TyTN a while ago, no luck......im going to try again now, as i was quite annoyed it didnt work. Will report back soon.
EDIT:: Gonna need to get a plug adapter as i forgot the dumbasses i bought it from sent an EU power supply and not a UK one...LOL!
from what i remember it was around JUNE time when i tried it, sounds like the bluetooth drivers may have changed since i tried it but it did seem as if the headset was the problem and not the drivers as i have had other A2DP headsets working fine.

Jabra BT320's
Bluetooth can be a real pain at times - with unpredictable results. I cannot begin to tell you how much wasted time I have spent trying to pair gadgets together - so it was a pleasent surprise to find the Jabra's paired first time and functioned as described.
Wishing you LOL.
tange.

well i tried it again and even on my pretty up to date ROM it only pairs as a headset and not wireless stereo urgh!

may be worth a rom upgrade?

i have a 320s (uk version bought from a tmobile shop - their selling them for 25quid) and it works fine on my wm5 spv m700 and is detected as wireless stereo and headset

i had the same issue with this thing ... i did a hardreset and it showed up as stereo headset again. i had to do one anyway...
@all how do you like the jabra? mine is quite noisy ... i use my ugly samsung speakers instead and thinking about buying a 3.5mm adapter for the car.

I have been playing with the bt320s for a few days on different roms for my wizzard. I have been tring some WM5 and WM6 roms for features and bluetooth options. What i found was that I could pair with WM5 but even if it gave me the stereo option it was only in mono. After a google search i found someone mentioing that WM5 only supports Mono.
I then tried a couple of WM6 roms and found that they all supported the stereo correctly.
I then hit a problem as I decided that a ROM i tried earlier had everything i wanted (Diamond). So, decision made, I flashed the rom and tried to pair and it would only pair on headset and not offer the stereo. Very wierd as it worked before????.
I then found a post on another site which mentioned the following with the Bt320s headset.
1) delete any pairings on the phone.
2) switch of headset
3) plug the charge into the mains
4) put the charge into the headset 3 times for 5 seconds each.
5) Recreate the pairing with the phone.
Sounds wierd but it worked??????
I now have a wm6 rom with stereo bluetooth.
the only problem now is that WM6 closes all my apps when i switch it off and on using the power button.
This seems to be a bug when you enable a security pin in WM6 which i am forced to do via a directpush policy from work. Does anyone know a workaround for this as it is anoying to have your cub/pointui/media player etc close on you and go back to the home screen whenever I use the power button.
*****Orange are selling the Jabra BT320s online for £9.50 at the moment. Well worth the money*********

Quick update, on the latest pandora ROM (Tytn) ..... Its working great.

Bluetooth Headphones

I recently purchased a pair of Iogear wireless Bluetooth headphones to use with my Fuze. I went through the process of pairing them, and managed to get them to connect. But when I tried to use them with listening to music or making a call, they would not work.
Anyone else have a problem or a clue as to why they won't work?
The phone supports both A2DP and AVRCP.
Hope this is in the correct section.

I'm unsure on why it won't work. I have some Plantronics Pulsar 590A and they are top notch. I use it with my 8525 (Hermes) and the sound quality is great. Also, Plantronics does a great job on their warranty.

I have noticed that sometimes when I connect my bluetooth headphones, that if I had the media player already launched that it would not play through the bluetooth headphones but though the built in speaker still. Once I shut down the media player and launched again after bluetooth was enabled and headphones connected, it would work.
When you paired the headphones, did you make sure that in the bluetooth settings for your bluetooth headphones (under settings, connections, bluettooth find and tap on your headphones and check there) that wireless stereo and handsfree was checked.
Sometimes also, my device for some reason just chooses not to connect anymore to my headphones and I have to do a soft reset to get it to connect. Does not happen very often - once per month. I use my bluetooth headphones and the Motorola T505 in my car for streaming music wirelessly to my car stereo every day.

You know this happens with me with Core Player. I have to set up the A2DP before I start a movie or song in the program or else it won't work.
Instead of doing a soft reset I just turn bluetooth off and then back on. That usually solves the problem of the mystery disconnect.

Yeah, that was one of the first things I had done before even trying to use them. I checked the settings. But still to no avail. Even tried soft resetting.
It worked instantly with my Tilt though. But I bought them to use with the Fuze lol.

Yes I do this to for this particular problem. The soft reset required problem is something different - Not sure yet what causes it - I think that it is an app that I run every now and then that causes some kind of conflict even after it has been shut down. Still have to figure it out

Have you been successful in connecting other bluetooth headsets to your device which worked?

Oh yeah. My bluetooth headset, Plantronics umm forgot the number works with the Fuze. This is a mystery to me

Have you tried your new bluetooth headphones with different media players such as S2P or Mortplayer, TCPMP, Core Player, WM Player, HTC audio Manager should all support but perhaps what you are using does not. I don't have a Fuze so don't know how the built in audio manager media player works but have seen several posts with people having problems. Try another media player 3rd party such as S2P, Mortplayer, TCPMP (all free) or Core Player (not free)

Okay, I'll do that, but it doesn't even work with using them to make a call.
There's a built-in mic on them, so it should work with that as well. It says it's connected, but the lil headphone icon never shows up when I turn them on.

Are these the ones you have
http://www.iogear.com/product/GBMH211W6/
It says your device must support Headset or Hands-Free Profile. try unchecking wireless stereo and only check one of these profiles and see if it works

If this doesn't work you may wanna RMA yours and get a new pair. If that doesn't work, then you may wanna step up to a more expensive pair.

Yeah, those are the ones I have.
And it does support both of those.
Maybe I'll do what addicus said and send them back.
I was really hoping these would work too! Darn.
-------------
After trying them again, when I tried to make a call, I heard it make a sound as if it was turning off, and still did not work properly.
I'll be returning these most likely.

Damn you shortay! Since I wrote in this thread my Plantronics have been tripping when I make a phone call and not syncing up. I figured it out. It's that new Yota dialer I put in the other day. Sometimes I can't use the bluetooth on a phone call unless the A2DP is hooked up. Weird.

Lol, sorry! I wonder if I hard reset my phone will it fix it.
I messed around with a new cab earlier today, and had to restore
my phone, and i think it's be tripping afterwards anyway. Last try before I sent them back...that's after the iogear support people reply to me. Appreciated all the help.
Okay, so the email I got from the support basically told me how to set up the bluetooth headphones. WOW... some help they are. Other than giving me a number to call if I needed "further assistance". I thought that's what I was asking for in the first place.
Anywho, after randomly deciding to hard reset my phone, I tried the headphones again, and wah lah...they work!
I guess some setting in my phone wasn't set right. Go figure. Anyway.. Thanks to those who helped.
I'll be keepings these.

Glad they are working now for you.

okay, so I may need you guy's advice. It seems as though they only work once and then i have to delete them from the phone, then discover them again. Could it be a defect in the particular headphones I have, or the model not working with my Fuze? Maybe I should RMA these anyway?

Maybe you should head on into the shop you purchased your Fuze and describe the problem to them. Perhaps they will allow you to connect various different bluetooth headphones (that they have at the shop) to your device to see if it is a problem with your device or with your headphones.

This is a great idea! If you find out the problem is with the headset - RMA them. If not, dig deep in that Fuze forum and see if you guys can figure out a fix.

Dueling Bluetooths

I have a 2005 Acura with bluetooth phone. My girlfriend and I both have pairing to it, she has an old Sprint A920, I have a Tmobile TP2. If we get into the car around the same time, her phone always wins! Of course the ideal solution would be if the car had a function to prioritize who gets bluetooth (if it connects hers, then sees mine, to disconnect hers and connect mine), but alas, nothing like that. I assume the car is polling for a bluetooth and picks the first one it finds. It doesn't seem related to who it paired last, or who made a call last, and we tried unpairing both then pairing mine first or hers first.
So, other than her turning off bluetooth (a pain on her phone) whenever we get back to the car, is there any solution to get it to like me more? Is the problem in the speed the TP2 connects? Any way to speed that up with the stock ROM.
And while I'm here anyway, many thanks to all the amazing people in the XDA community.

I've found that my Windows Mobile devices are slower to pair with Bluetooth headsets/car kits than the older dumbphones I've had (mostly Motorolas).
A partial solution to the problem with the Acura HandsFreeLink, if it pairs to her phone first, is to press the HFL button on the steering wheel and say "Next Phone". It will unlink her phone and link to your phone. That way you can keep both phones paired to the car if needed and still use your phone if the car happens to link with hers first.

Awesome solution, TYVM! Funny, I think I remember help telling me that command but never thought that was what it did Now I just have to find a way to say 'next phone' without my g/f hearing me

bluetooth paring problems WM6.5

Yesterdaty I updated to WM6.5 and now try to get everything working again. Somehow my TP2 won't pair with my bluetooth carkit anymore. With WM6.1 this was no problem. The phone still pairs perfectly with my computer (also bluetooth connection) so I think the bluetooth connection is ok.
When parining to my carkit it finds the device, then I have to enter a password on the TP2, and after that it just sais "pairing connection failed", and it will not work. I am sure the password is not changed since yesterday. I tried it several times. I do not know what to do anymore. Could this be a setting somewhere? I get the feeling my password is not send properly but have no idea.

Meanwhile I tried pairing my carkit with another phone and no problems there. So my conclusion is: something has changed with bluetooth, updating to WM6.5 which makes it now impossible to pair my TP2 with my carkit.
Is there maybe a programm for the TP2 which give me more controll over bluetooth (like maybe go to an older standard)?

I have exactly the same problem as you

good to hear I am not the only one. Hope someone will come up with a solution for this.

I did nor observed any issues when pairing my TP2 after reflashing to WM6.5
There is another issue however - I can not hear any voice until it is charging.
Unplugging of the charger fixes this issue immediately. Horrible...
Seems, HTC guys are saving money on testing by using us as Beta Customers.

Would a custom ROM be a solution for us?

I updated to the "energy 6.5.1 rom" and guess what..............
The same problem. The rom is very nice, but my TP2 still won't pair with my BT carkit which is very big problem for me.
Is there maybe a way to downgrade just the BT part of a rom to WM6.1. I read on different forums there is something that is called a BT stack. Could this be the problem?

I have a ton of problems with bluetooth pairing now. However, I don't know whether it's the fault of 6.5 or the Tilt 2. Here is what I am experiencing...
- On car deck or headphones, the skip buttons don't do anything
- on car deck or headphones, I have to disconnect Stereo Audio and then reconnect to actually get sound. It NEVER works when it auto connects.
- Music will do a brief skip when you shut the screen off
- Stupid message about volume control every time it connects (resolved by switching to custom rom)
- SMS or any kind of alert tone now turns music way down so that the tone is the only thing you hear. Which is super awesome when I'm driving my drunk friends around and they are singing along to a song when suddenly it mutes so everyone can hear my incoming text message.
Not a single one of these issues existed when I had my Fuze.

Same here
My bt headset (sony hbh ds970) and simply does not find the pairing...
I asume is a problem related to energy´s ROM

No I do not think so, because I used the official WM6.5 with the same problem. Does someone know a way around this issue. I strongly believe that if only I could pair I have some options to work with it (in 6.1 it worked like a charm). If I only could pair without having to send the passkey it would be great step forward. I presume with sending the passkey, the bluetooth of the TP2 sends out other "rubbish" that confuses my carkit.

My problem is solved and guess what, it had nothing to do with my TP2. The problem was my carkit. It has a maximum number of bluetooth devices (5) it can pair to and the last one (the WM6.1 version of my phone) had been reached. So a hard reset on the bluetooth carkit and the problem was solved.
Well, at least I now know how to flash a rom to my phone and I think I learned more about the phone reading through all the forums. Thanks all for thinking with me on this problem!

Does anyone else still have this problem?? I have removed all the devices from my car and continue to have the same pairing error just after entering the passcode. Stock Spint ROM worked great, but multiple 6.5 upgrades don"t pair..............suggestions/ideas??????

bluetooth settings, advanced, enable beam data exchange,check the box

Interesting.....I actually found a fix. Instead of pairing the phone with the car, I paired the car with the phone. I didn't even know that this was possible, but it did the trick!

CM11 Bluetooth Problems

Curious if anyone would have any insight...
I hadn't used bluetooth too much, but I occasionally used it with my Pioneer car stereo. I know that CM10.1 had some issues with bluetooth, so I figured that was the reason it worked intermittently. I purchased a different car stereo, and couldn't get my Epic to pair with it. Basically it would see the car stereo, start to pair, let me enter the passkey, then bluetooth would turn off, then back on and it will keep doing this. So...I wiped everything and installed CM11, which I thought (and heard) would have much better bluetooth. But I'm having the same exact problem. At first it was saying that my passkey was wrong as it would turn off, or I might get a bluetooth process force closing, but it always ends up turning bluetooth off, then back on again as it tries to pair. I also tried pairing it with a bluetooth HMDX speaker, and the same exact thing happens. Just wondering if anyone might have a few tips on what to check out instead of going back to stock.

I too have been having a very similar problem with with my plantronics headset, and Panasonic Bluetooth cordless phone. My Nexus 4 will continue to disconnect and reconnect, have tried to pairing the devices again with no luck. tried a few nightlies of late with no luck yet.

The odds part is that I have no problem connecting and staying connected to my pebble smart watch.
