Setting my bluetooth headset to the HTCs620 - HTC Excalibur

What's good. A few Months back, I decided to update my Tmobile dash to 6.1 , which works fine. I had even got the Keyboard fix a few minutes ago. The only problem that I am facing , is that I can not pair my jabra dogtag blue tooth to the 620. I can pair to other phones and pcs, but I can not seem to get that headset to pair up? any suggestions?

Did you use the bluetooth explorer on your phone after turning on your phone's bluetooth on your comm manager and had your headset on pairing mode? it should find it . Make sure your headset is fully charged.

WM6 Bluetooth headset issue - can pair but cannot connect

Hi,
I have this strange problem. I'm using the Black Majik LE and a i.Tech Arrow X headset.
I'm able to pair both of them successfully - completing with the i.Tech Arrow X added (that's the only bluetooth device i have).
However the headphone icon does not appear on the taskbar and i cannot make/receive calls through my headset, it seems as if its not paired, all the audio/mic goes through my Hermes.
I checked that the bluetooth is on (blinking blue light), resetted my Hermes, delete the pairing and re-paired, resetted my headset, all with no avail.
To confirm that my headset is fine, i paired with another phone (Sony Ericsson) and its working fine, so its definitely a problem on my Hemes.
Has anyone encountered this before or have any suggestions on how to resolve this?
Thanks!
I have the same problem with official WM6....
Suggestions anyone?
I to have this problem, I could connect my bluetooth headset fine before to listen to music but now all music is played out of my dopod 838 pro and doesn't come out of the headset at all its like its not there and i've also done all those steps you mentioned Patrick.
Bluetooth headset works great on my official WM6. I've tested with both Jabra BT 620s and Pulsar 590A. I can receive phone calls in of middle of the music. No problems at all.
Maybe it has something to do with your BT headsets?

I flashed to vp3g's v3.0 and the BT headset works fine.
Flashed back to Black Majik LE and the BT headset works again
Weird.
Thanks for all your help anyway
I've flashed back to WM5 headset works fine but back in WM6 still not workin for stereo only for phone calls.
This may seem like a silly question, but under bluetooth connections, did you try selecting (and holding) the bluetooth device and then selecting the option that says "Set as Hands Free" (or wireless stereo if you want to listen to music)? It seems like some older rom I had didn't require this, but now I have to do this each time the device is turned on or off.

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.

Jabra BT8010 Wont Pair?

I was wondering if somebody can help me pair the Jabra BT8010 with my Dash. I just downloaded and upgraded the Jabra software from their site and it still won't pair. Any suggestions or ideas?
What Rom version are you using?
WM 6.1 Kavana, and i forget which one of his actual roms, but its a recent one. I read up that the Jabra has problems with the Dash in general. Is there a way to resolve it or should i just get a diff bluetooth.
Anybody know of a stereo bluetooth that works with their Dash?
Motorola S9, I have one. Works fine with my Dash. Only problem I noticed is when pairing it takes a few tries to find the headset, but eventually it does. I also use it on my desktop pc as a headset and headphone for music when everyone is asleep since they complain about my speakers bass...

2nd that the s9 are a great sounding pair of BT headphones and can be found very cheap these days, i don't own a pair but have tryed friends and wish i did...
They are on Ebay for like $20-30 buy it now. Also there's the S9HD version out now, but those run over $100. They have HD surround sound or something and are solid black instead of black and red.

Was it ever paired? if it was then delete the profile then pair (headset settings)
If not turn off the Dash bluetooth then set your headset to pairing mode THEN turn on your Dash bluetooth (thats what worked for me)
I've never been able to pair it, before or after the wm update. I've tried all sorts of ways to pair the two, just doesn't seem to pair.. Man i had the jabras paired with my old rizr and i loved them, wish there was a way to get them to work with the dash...

Mine has always worked (after I did the steps I posted to you prior) I have it connected to both my Dash and my laptop. If you tried to connect it multipule times you probably have stored profiles in the headset which is keeping you from paring.
Actually i think there is a problem with the hardware b/c i can't get the bluetooth radio to turn on. The multiple profiles isn't an issue b/c i've reflashed the DASH with various versions of software, including official tmobile, and it still doesn't do anything. Whenever i go to turn on my bluetooth, it just acts like its trying to turn it on, but nothing ever gets turned on. I'm fairly certain at this point its a hardware problem.
Ah well, i guess i'll just buy a corded headset for the time being and then save my jabra for when i get a new phone...

I meant multiple profiles in the headset (paired devices). Have you tried pairing another headset with the Dash?
I have not been able to pair the dash with another bluetooth. I tried with a few motorolas recently and it didn't work. I'll try taking it to the store again and seeing if it pairs with anything else..

I have a pair of LG-TONE HBS-730 earphones and also a FM transmitter in my car. Last night and this morning I had a similar problem as yours, and I had to restart the phone so I could hear music and calls through the bluetooth devices. A couple of hours ago, I tried again and everything worked very well, BUT after disconnecting them, the phone went like it was on Silent Mode. No sound at all, no ringtone, no music, even the alarm didn't emit any sound, so I had to restart the phone and sound got back to normal. At this moment I am doing some tests connecting and disconnecting the BT earphones, but the problem is gone, so I don't know what's going on.

On my s3 it paired automatically! on the s4 i had to do this.....
With the Power off, press the CALL button and move the power switch to the ‘ON’ side at the same time for 4 seconds to manually place the headset in pairing mode
I hope this helps!
Use BT all the time on my gs2 ill try this out tomorrow and see if there is anything out of the ordinary.
Needing to pair the bt device to the phone is very normal for the very first use - especially if its been paired with another device in its history. Ive found bt devices (headsets like the jabara bt3030/street2) often cant really have more than 1 or two pairs total or they dont connect / dont stay connected properly.
Also the samsung bt stack has had lots of issues with BT devices over the galaxy generations. hopefully its not back.
I've used a Moto S10 & S11 HD stereo BT and 2 different Jawbones without issue.
