Please help me out I'm incredibly frustrated with this thing. I recently got the PDA2k and installed WM05 on it. It looks very nice and it runs speedy with no problems. My problem is the bluetooth which is huge thing to me. Either my headset (Tekkeon Eztalker Mini) is not compatible which I doubt or I'm making a stupid mistake.
This is what I did step by step: I click on the bluetooth icon and turn on the bluetooth, I then put my headset in pairing mode and the imate is able to recognize it and I enter the Pw and I put Set as handsfree. That's it, I would think I would be done at this point yet nothing happens, the headset doesn't do anything and I know its not Tekkeons fault because I was able to hook it up easily with my HP 6315.
So what's going what am I missing?
Also theres a tab at the bottom called "Com Ports" but I only see under this option "Incoming Port", and the description at the top says there should be another option called "New outgoing port". Does this have anything to do with it?
What Am i doing wrong? It's driving me crazy I can't really use the phone without the headset.
help me out pls
Bluetooth
I know the feeling, i have gone back to 2003 cause of that but now i am back on wm5. The bluetooth issue is not fixed yet, it is not stable, it keeps going off. There is a suspend cab file, but it does not work for me yet, also try pokect zen beta. You might get a longer period of bluetooth
thanks for responding, but the problem is not that it suspends or stops working. It doesn't start working at all even though the imate detects it. It's like it's not connected at all, not that it disconnects. I'm doing something wrong I just don't know what.
The bluetooth piece is not faulty and the unit is practically brand new. whats going on?
I used "Display Switch" binded button (From Wisbar Advance 2) or "Toggle Screen" (From SPB Pocket Plus) to turn off the backlight instead of using power button .
This work around will keep bt connection alive.
Note:
1. If you suspend your BA using psShutXP your bt connection .
2. You have to disable auto turn off device under Start -> Setting -> Power
Note:
1. If you suspend your BA using psShutXP your bt connection will be disconnected.
I'm sorry I'm not sure I'm explaining myself correctly. I understand that if the power goes off I will lose the BT connection but the problem is not KEEPING the connection alive, the problem is MAKING the connection. I follow all the steps , the imate recognized the headset but I'm not able to use it..also shouldn't a headset picture show up at the top of the screen when the bt headset is connected (cuz mine doesnt). what am i doing wrong?
thanks.
still need help please.. if someone can walk me through how to setup a bluetooth connection that would be great cuz I apparently haven't done it right.
The headset icon only shows in Phone app
The headset icon only shows up in the Phone application. It no longer is displayed in the notification area (top row).
If your device is paired up, when you make a call, you will see the headset icon in the top right corner.
You may also need to clear any old pairings that you headset has. I have a Jabra 250 and it happens all the time.
there we go you have solved my problem!. I didnt' have to open up the phone application on my hp 6315 to use the bt. So wait can I listen to music with windows media player through the bt headset or does it only work when making phone calls? I was able to listen to music on the HP 6315, is it different with the Imate or is it the NEW 05 os? Please enlighten me
thank you thank you
also one other thing does this mean that if i want to use the headset with the phone that I have to press the answer button on the imate rather than the headset..cuz that would suck big time.
what about when people call me can i answer with the answer button of the bt headset or no?
It works fine with the headset button for answering or hanging up.

Hi All,
No, not the basic question with the A2DP-answer, just something deeper.
Is it possible to stream music to a BT Headset which has no A2DP?
I use the newest and best LVSW-ROM. Wow, that one is great!!!
I vaguely recall a patch someplace that routed all sound to bluetooth... but I don't know if that would include MP3 sound.
-Steve
Search for bluetooth re-direct and perhaps mortscript. There is a script that allows you to map a button to toggle all sounds to be sent out to a bluetooth headset. You toggle the sound, then when you press the headset's call button the sounds come to it, press again and the sounds go back to the phone. When re-directed, voice dialing is suspended/not functional.
You want this one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=278778
Once you download and install Mortscript - download this script to map a button.
Thanks guys
Yeah, it's working.
Now I can use it with my carkit. It does not support A2DP.
Today, driving at home, I was enjoing listening (and watching with one eye) the news and other TV!!!
THANKS

I have posted this at the sony ericsson site but got no reasonable replies.
I have P3600, WM6, ROm 3.00.707.17. i paired it with my SE Bluetooth headset. when i play music, it skips every 20-30 seconds, and then after 10-15 min play time, it skips even more.
i repaired it several times but still same problem. anyone has problem playing music via BT and/or with this particular SE headset.

thanks! i just installed A2DPfix, yet it still skips.
NO more skipping after 20 min of play. YAY!
hi again,
after i installed A2DPFix a month ago, my music has been playing without much skipping until recently. i do not know what changed, but it skips 3-4 times in the beginning of each song. it's sporadic, sometime it skips and sometime it does not.
i have been reading more about A2DPFix.cab here, some people claims it works while others not 100%.
then someone suggested to use pocket player 3.5 and other music player. i am currently trying this new S2P music player
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-s2p.html
this seems to work without skipping except i can not pause, forward and backward using my BT remote headset with this music player. also, i my BT remote does not work with pocket player 3.5.
i am using a SE HBH-DS970, can someone explain to me why the remote for this BT headset only works with window media player and not other music players.
it would be great if i can someone make the remote works with the new S2P player because it DOES NOT skip and it's free.
thanks!!

you are correct, once in a while when i either restart my mobile phone or headset, still it's a pain and frustrating.
i would really like to know why the SE headset functions (pause, next song, previous song...etc) doe not work with other music players.
i saw the HTC audio manager player and i wonder if this will work with my SE headset?
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-htc-audio-manager-v1-2-515-718.html
would someone please shed some light here as to why my SE headset only works with window media player that comes with the phone (HTC P3600)
Use the HTC AudioManager its easy to handle. WM give me and to the most other
the Database/playlist error.
The buttons works fine with them. I Use only this.
Heard that mortplayer (or similar) works too.
Greets
Pair the device with the phone from the phone, and not let the headset connect automaticly.
In other words:
1: Turn OFF bluetooth on the phone
2: Turn ON headset
3: Wait for a few sec
4: turn ON bluetooth on phone
5: Press and hold on the headset name in the device-list and choose connect or whatever it's called
Now you shouldn't have skipping. (Untill next time...) - Or change rom.

i did what you suggested,
1. turn off bluetooth on the phone
2. turn on headset,
3. wait a few sec
4. turn on bluetooth on the phone
5. press and hold on my headset and choose connect? press and hold does not seem to give me that the "connect" option
anyway, i do 1, 2, 3, 4 and then for
5. i press my headset which connects to my phone
i connect three separate times and it has not been skipping every time.
i guess i am very curious as to why this particular sequence makes a different. any one knows at all????
Hehe! If you search bit, and find threads I've been involved in, you'll se a solution for this problem that I posted out for a long ago... Don't ask me how I managed to debug this, but god damned I was proud Hehe!
But why it works, I don't know Hehe! I guess there is some sort of buffer-error going on when connecting the normal way

hi again,
i was about to update this thread. i have tried this 3-4 times now per your instructions, and it seems to work every time. THANKS!
i am really happy this works, as i was getting very frustrated with it, and i appreciate your reply.
nevertheless, i am still curious as to why this particular sequences work. i am hoping someone else would enlighten me here.
thanks again !!
Additional reason
From my experience, I did have this same problem as you guys, but I found another thing that really caused the music playback to skip.
Over here, I've actually purchased a counterfeit Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970. I had bought the counterfeit first, and Sony gave me an original for free.
I found that the copy (fake, but in every way looks like the original, except it feels a bit flimsy) tends to skip. I obviously didn't know it was a fake, and I had taken it to Sony to get it fixed. Sony took one look at it and gave me coffee and asked for details of the dealer who sold this counterfeit. Then, Sony gave me a free original set, just for my help.
Based on my use of both sets, I can safely say that the counterfeit skips, the original doesn't. Wish somebody can explain to me why this happens.

Well, I think what you mean is that the counterfeit skips on your device with your rom, while the original does not skip on your device with your rom
(Since the original one skips as much as a counterfeit one on other trinity-devices
This skipping is most likely caused' by some sort of buffer settings - which seem to be individual from devicetype to devicetype.
Sorry if I make some mistakes...
I've the same problem with my BT Plantronics...
It depends only from the ROM
I haven't any problems with WM5, but some coocked WM6 have this problem, now I am with this and everything works fine...

Does anyone have a solution as to how to change the FM radio Channel through the Headset Call button??......currently i can only do it on the HD unit itself.
Any solution or link would be nice.
Thanks
hi,
It would be great if someone could reply.

Currently when i hit the button more then once, it starts calling the last person on my call history.

Thank You.
Finally got something resolved.
I really like the phone, but stupid things, either due to Microsoft or HTC really makes me wonder why cant they get it rite like apple.
I really miss the sensor on i-phone, but as its windows you always have work arounds.
I am using pocket shield. Its good, but still misses one good option.
When the headset is inserted, you cannot disable the answer hard key.
I am trying to check, if there might be any application that can help me with that.
Apart from that the battery life is a bit bad rite now.
I have disabled all the bells n whistles like bluetooth, wifi, active sync,push notifications. but still dont know, why it is still lacking.
One thing I havent tried, is the option to switch off the device,
But the problem is that you have to press the power button everytime to bring it back, then swipe to unlock.
Phew... I knw to many complaints..
But luckily, its a easter weekend, so can search the net to make my phone perfect... heheehheheheh........
Let me know if you find something which changes the FM Radio preset stations with the headset button.
sure. will post rite here.
Even though this is 2 years after the previous post, it may help to say I would also like to have 1 button control for the FM Radio in my Android - ver 3.3.3 Samsung Gio.
If you know if an app has been created in the past 2 years, please let me know.

Hey guys, pretty sure a lot of people out there are using a smartwatch along with their Pixel so maybe someone can help me with this: when my Galaxy Active 2 smartwatch is connected most of the time I can not use voice input with Google Assistant / search. When I wake up the Assistant by long-pressing power the device starts listening but apparently can't hear me. When I disable Bluetooth or power off the watch everything's working just fine.
The weird part is this though: most of the time the watch is connected, a Bluetooth icon with two dots on the left and right can be seen in the status bar, but not always! And only when the icon is NOT there, while the watch is STILL connected and fully usable, voice commands DO work! What on earth is going on there?
Same thing with the camera app: when the watch is connected and the icon is there, the cam app tells me a Bluetooth microphone is connected. When the watch is connected and the icon is NOT there, the app doesn't tell me. With the cam it is not a problem either way though because here I can choose what audio source I wanna use, while in the Google app I can't.
Any ideas?
It seems that your Galaxy Active 2 gets recognized by the P6 as a Bluetooth microphone capable device, ergo it won't use the in-build phone microphones.
Does it have microphones, by the way?
You can always change the system "primary" source of a microphone/sound source by going into the Sound menu (press volume rocker, press on three dots, change there or go into See more).

Yeah I'm looking for a way to do that, change primary audio source, but I don't see any options for that in the sound or any other menu...
I'll add another bug to the list.
When a watch capable of making and receiving calls (Huawei Watch GT2 Pro) is connected, initiating a phone call from a BT headset/earbuds starts a phone call through the headset, but as soon as the phone call connects, the audio switches from BT headset to phone internal speaker.
You have to disable the "phone" function of the BT settings for the smartwatch to get this to work properly.
This didn't use to be the case, so it's clearly a new bug either in P6P or Android 12.
