Bluetooth headgear disconnect mid-call - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Sorry if I'm posting a question that's been answerred before, but I haven't been able to find a thread to this problem:
sometimes my Nokia BH-102 will disconnect in the middle of a conversation in the car. The only option at that time is to pull the TP2 from it's holder and put it to my ear.
Whether it's the headset or the phone, I don't know, but it used to work in combo with the old Nokia E60 I used to operate......
Chances are it's the TP2, but how to fix it?
Only 'tweak' was to install tomtom, but without the 2 dll's which have been causing some problems.
Has anybody experienced anything similar?

Bluetooth visor problem
I have had problems with my headset - Supertooth Visor One Bluetooth Car Kit. Not quite the same as you though - the problems I have is that when I make an outgoing call, everything works fine but when I recieve an incoming call the audio stays on the handset rather than coming out of the bluetooth headset - which means I have to pick up the phone. I also have installed TomTom 7 and I had to do the 2 dll fix as my bluetooth was completely broken otherwise. So I guess maybe TT7 is responsible in some way. Only thing is, I dont want to do a hard reset to find out!!

I'd already read about the Tomtom BT-issue so I cleared the 2 dll's out of the cab prior to installation.
So the originals should still be in use. BT is/was working and I have been synching using BT. That's not the problem.
There should be threads out here pointing you to the original dll's. you could past them over the current ones and see if it helps.

I experiencing the same problem, and didn´t install tomtom.

So now it looks like it's a problem in the TP2 then.
Hopefully a BT-guru can investigate? This is way beyond my capabilities.
In the meantime I'll know what to do if and when it happens: take a chance on the cops seeing it and issuing a ticket.....

I'm having a similar issue, my headsets plural, have this problem. It will disconnect but what is happening is the headset is shutting down. If I hold the power button on the headset it comes back on and will work again.
If it was one headset I would think it is faulty but I've had this problem with three headsets and the Bluetooth in my car.
Is it possible that the phone is sending a shutdown command? BTW I am using the stock TMOUS 6,5 ROM and have tried some of the cooked ROMS with the same effect.

Several serious problems with Qtek 9090

I'm having several problems with my Qtek 9090
There's a rather loud constant high-pitched noise comming from the screen whenever it is turned on (which is when the device is on!). At first I though it was comming from the speaker, but the screen is definitely the source of the noise. It doesn't matter if the backlight is on or off.
People can't hear what I say when using the phone - it makes no difference whether I use the included headphones or just speak directly into the microphone.
I haven't been able to find a BT headset that works with it. They all have the same problem; The sound scratch so much they're unusable. I tried 3 different brands that all works well with my 2020!
The GSM link often "falls out" - even though there's plenty of link the phone doesn't work (nothing happens when I try to call someone). A soft reset solves this problem!
As you can see, I can hardly use the device as a phone at all I've had the device replaced once, but all the problems persists on the replacement.
Does anyone have similar problems?
1. No, don't have this problem. Strange that it happened on the replacement too.
2. Yes.
3. I have just ordered a jabra headset in the hope it will fix problem#2.
4. Yes.
These problems with GSM are a real headache. One of the primary reasons for buying the PDA2k was to consolidate my mobile into one device. I have seen other people experiencing such problems but from what I could gather, voice over BT worked much better. Have you updated the ROM since you bought it? I should know the answer to 3 today, if DHL delivers, and I can tell you I will not be a happy man if the answer is Yes!
Try a Motorola HS810 headset... works fine for me.

I've already tried Jabra Freespeak 250, which didn't work for me
No I haven't updated the ROM as I've been told by the supplier that no new version is available yet!

I also tried both a Motorola and a SonyEricsson BT headset, but I don't remember the specific models - they both scratched immensely
i use SE 60 and it works ok
As you said, the Jabra250 is pretty much unusable!
Crackling is not constant but goes in waves, even though I do not move.
Am at a bit of a loss what to do now... the device is great apart from this.
>> People can't hear what I say when using the phone - it makes no difference whether I use the included headphones or just speak directly into the microphone
yes PBT read my other post
I have the same problem!!
it is scandalous to sel an device with this big defect!!
Sony HBH-660 works good for me.
People say that they can't hear me when I use the handset, but I don't have any crackling, etc with the headset and voice is clear. You just never know if the headset is going to connect when the phone rings though.

I have this problem also, I was told to use the new rom but this has made no difference, Please let me know if you have found a solution

Guys,
the hissing coming from the screen is a power supply problem. keep swapping phones until it goes away! I used to build switching power supply and the hissing (in a system designed to operate well above 20kHz) is only able to be heared when unstable, inductor core or cap is broken. The hissing is very 'not normal'.
It appears that the Q9090 is standing out as having more problems than the MDAIII, one is the mic volume, most of the other phones are not complaining about this so there may be something with they way the Q9090 are updated or shipped.
With the Jabra 250, don't forget to pair it pressing BOTH the volume and phone button on the headset on discovery with the 9090.(On bonding, turn off headset, turn on again pressing both buttons)
Funny thing is, I had the cracking also. I deleted the headset in BT manager and paired it again as described above. Now it works ok.
Hi,
I bought a Qtek 9090 a few days ago and I also have the same problem with volume level. People can't hear me when speaking, either with the headset or base microphone.
Using a different headset doesn't help (that's even worse sometimes) but I didn't try a BT heaset (and I don't want to as it would raise potential connection problems). I'm going to contact Qtek for support on this...
Pierre
I too am having problems with the Jabra 250 BT headset and my SPV M2000. The Jabra 250 worked fine on the XDAII but is terribly crackly on the newer model.
This is even when pairing it with the enhanced pairing of pressing Volume Up and Phone button together to pair.
Any ideas?
qtek 9090 bluetooth problem
Hi All,
I have new qtek9090 with cellink bluetooth headset. It is work normal, but i am loosing connection to headset each time qtek go to stand by mode. I need to switch off/on the bluetooth in order to restore the connection. Any ideas?
I often get a message stating:
"The Bluetooth Radio failed to turn ON due to insufficient driver momory available. You must perform a normal reset before you can turn ON the Bluetooth Radio."
Does your device also give you this message?
Is it also using the Broadcom "Bluetooth for Windows CE BT-PPC/PE Version 1.0.0 Build 2200"?
Interested to know if you have the same problems with the same bluetooth driver.
same problem
My qtek 9090 shows te same problem
This is a known problem with the Blue Angel, unfortunately, until they bring out a fix, all you can do is a soft reset.
upgrade
hi all,
how can i get updates from www.imateclub.com?
I can't register there, because I have qtek 9090 and not i-mate
thanks

Bluetooth Headset Fails

As everybody know, its quite annoying use Universal as mobile. then, i decided to start to use the Bluetooth headset!
But doesn't work all the time.
If i set one headset, it works fine for few hours, then, after a while, without any message, bluetooth in my Universal turns off it self!!
At begin i though that would be my headset, then i tested with my other headset, and is the same!
Beside that, when i try to pair it them once more, it has static on it.
So, to be able to use it again, i need to:
- Remove device in my bluetooth list
- restart headset
- Search for device once more
And then, it works for a while again.
Well, i have tested in two headset over here, The Dopod H1 and Targus.
Does anybody knows what is going on or had same problem?
Thanks in advance!
Same here
I have experienced the same problem with my JasJar. The bluetooth radio seems to turn itself off from time to time. I think it is somehow related to WM2005, because I had the same issue with a Himalaya running WM2005. What is weird is that the blue light continues to blink. If you go to the wireless manager applet, it sometimes shows the bluetooth as on and sometimes as off, but if you go to the bluetooth setting, it shows the radio as off.
Any suggestions?
TIA
Panabax
Buzz_lightyear may have the solution here: http://www.buzzdev.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=60&Itemid=41
I'm trying this at present. BT stayed on overnight, despite very low battery, and I'll put it into use all of today. If I go a full day without losing BT then it's solved for me cos I was losing it ALL the time 2 days ago.
Hmm, I had a better day with this reg hack - but I did lose BT once. SO, inconclusive at present.
Guys - I have searched the whole internet and can confirm that there is a problem with the ROM
Until it is fixed Bluetooth will not work as it should
This is a problem i had with original jasjar rom (september 2005). First official upgrade and all subsequent roms have solved this problem. I'm actualy using helmi's aky 3.5 1.3.1 and sony hbh660 dayly without any problem.

stereo bt but mono sound

iam currently using latest rom from dopod and motorola 820, although the two earpiece have sounds it is only mono, can someone help to make it stereo? o recomend what rom to use, thanks
In order to have stereo audio on a Bluetooth device, you need a profile called A2DP, which is currently only supported by the latest Qtek Universal ROM at the moment:
ftp://xda:[email protected]_Updates/UNI_QTEK_13077_176_10900_WWE.exe
Dopod has not released a ROM supporting A2DP yet.
thanks for the help, God bless
No problem. Do let us know whether it works well or not.
it works, i have stereo sound, but need improvements, in a song the bluetoth stops 3 to 4 times when playing, the player dont stop its the motorola 820 that stops several times.
I did come across a post with a patch for the A2DP flaw the other day. It's somewhere on this site - do a search and see if you're lucky.
Found it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=46811&highlight=universal+a2dp
It worked for me for a little while so try it.
Hi,
I have used A2DP a lot with my JasJar the last 4-5 months, and had written a summary of my experiences with this "lag/stuttering"-issue in another thread here...I have copied the most essential of that text below...might be usefull info for you;
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It seems to be two major factors affecting this "stuttering"/"lag" (from my experiences at least...I have used A2DP a lot with my Universal...couple of hours every day);
1. Universal struggling outputting(RAM/CPU...or both!?)
One help here is to apply the registry "A2DP priority" fix (found it in the forums here...and so did richardlai).
Another is to close all programs before using it (I usually do not do this...I usually only do it in hindsight when I get the problem).
2. Signal between Universal and headset struggling (obstructions between Universal and headset, WiFi nearby, so forth)
I for example get this problem if I put my Universal in my trouser pocket (I know, I must have big pockets, and walk around, I get stuttering/lag occationally. If I then take it out, and hold it in my hand farily still when I walk...no stuttering. I have found, that when I walk, it is Ok to have it in my backpack/rugsack...then for some reason it very rearly stutters...so I usually do that.
But when I walk of the bus at work, and walk into the "campus" of my workplace, which is cramped with radiotransmitters (is norways largest Telecom company)...I get a lot of stuttering, and need to take it out of backpack, and hold it in my hand, at it gets a lot better.
In short: A2DP with the Universal works, but is sensitive to disturbance/obstructions/moving around...and to make it worse, it is also sometimes dependant of the Universal itself struggling with CPU/RAM. So you can not totally get rid of the problem...but you can do a lot to minimize it...I almost never experience it now...except in the campus-area at work that is.
I have BTW had the exact same problems before with Qtek 2020 and Qtek9090 (which I got hold of some "A2DP patches", when I had those devices). ...but I really had a LOT more stuttering with those two...so much so, that I never used A2DP with them on a daily basis.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I also wrote a short post on my experiences with the different stereo headsets I have...yes, they actually act a little bit different it seems (regarding resume/pause button, and how easy/automatic they "reconnect"). You can see it here; http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=47977
Hope this is of some help for you!
RonnyGydar: I came across your little summary a little while ago and have done the registry fix, but the problem still exists! Do you think altering the value in some way would help?
richardlai,
I added the registry value manually...found a reg-file (or was it a CAB-file!?) that supposedly should add it...but when I checked later the key was still not added in the registry?
So I added it manually.
BUT, I do still have the problem...but that seems to be radio interference/distance so forth...since when I hold JasJar in my hand and don't move it around, I NEVER have an problem. ...and actually fairly rearly when I have it in my rugsack/backpack.
With 1 or 2 exceptions...where it lagged "all the time"...but then a soft-reset cured it.
So if you have this problem with your phone lying in front of you on the table...then it really sounds like it is the JasJar/Universal that IS the cause (and not interference)...and yes then the registry hack should help.
BUT I have not done any real testing of the effect of it...I am not sure how much effect it really has...all I know is that I had a "lot of problems" with lag before...and now I almost never have it.
...I hate those "diffuse" problems...when it is impossible to measure in a "scientific" way that "this cures it", and "this do not"! :-(
Sorry about the "little help" I give here...but this issue is a bit "fuzzy"...I have gotten it enough under control to that it isn't a problem any more (during a 1 hour workout, I will typically get this gap/lag 0-2 times...and that is not a problem for me...at least compared to what I experienced 6 months ago, where I was lucky if I could hear 10 seconds without any problems).
The stuttering problem seems to be permanent now... Luckily I have a HP hx4700 (which has a Broadcom bluetooth module) and works perfectly with my Jabra HT620s. Anyone using an A2DP ROM other than Qtek? I'd like to try a different ROM to see if it would make a difference.
only a second of sound
i use the qstarz bt stereo headset (http://www.qstarz.com/products/bh-q392s.aspx) and it works fine for phonecalls, but when i set it for wireless stereo and start a media player (TCPMP, WMP, Pocket Player...) i mostly only get sound for one second and then it shuts up. the players keep playing, the buttons on the headset can pause, resume and change tracks but there is no sound at all.
i get full wireless stereo playback occasionally, but i can't figure out what differs from time to time.
i applied the above patch with no success. anyone has a thought on the matter?
Ariel.

I use the BT620s with my Qtek 9000 without much trouble. Here's the trick:
Assuming you have paired with succes. Set headset and BT OFF before starting.
Turn bluetooth ON
wait a second or two
Turn headset ON
wait another two seconds
Now go to BT settings, and connect the headset.
Wait for the little pling sound (the activesync sound ).
Now start Windows Media Player and play an MP3.
Using this sequence has never failed me
edit:
I use the latest OFFICIAL Qtek 9000 WWE ROM. (Without the ExtROM though ) And i did not use any patches regarding A2DP or Bluetooth.
this is what i tried, many times. i get the activesync sound, sometimes from the speakers, sometimes in the headset, but almost always only one second of sound afterwards.
i found that by pairing the headset to the universal by pressing and holding the green button on the headset untill the universal recognises (doesn't take long) gives better results.
pairing it by the instructions of the headset (putting it in discover mode, and then searching for a device with the universal) will give me the one second sound almost every time.

Well, this has ALWAYS been the sequence I use (and I don't think you can do it in any other way). The real problem here is either the buffer memory or processor load.

Then there is no A2DP problem, the only solution is to lower the overal systemload. Stop all programs you have running, disable every today plugin that need frequent updating (memory, battery meters etc.) Free up as much RAM as you possibly can. I have AT LEAST 16 mb RAM free when playing music via BT.

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!

[Q] Bluetooth Problems

Hi,
I have a bluetooth phone in my car, when I first connected the HTC Desire HD up, it had no problems, it paired and everything looked fine... around 10 minutes later, I noticed the bluetooth had simply disconnected from the car but was still running on the phone. I tried to reconnect it up to the car but it wouldn't, I then turned it off, and turned it back on.. it struggled to come back on, but after a few attempts it did come on and the car connected again...
About 5 minutes later the same thing happened again. At this point my phone started to really slow down, I looked in watchtower and the bluetooth was at the top of the list, soon as I turned off bluetooth the phone was responding fine again.
I have since tried connecting to the car multiple more times and have contacted HTC about it, but it seems to disconnect at random times.
Has anyone else experienced similar problems? I heard of similar problems with the original desire so wondering whether it could be something similar.
Kev
Hi Kev,
I am having similar problems with my Desire HD and Audi in car bluetooth system. I posted on another forum and found others were finding the same...
I pair my phone and within couple of minutes the phone has disconnected and won't re-connect.
Not found any definitive answer as yet, but seems BT in this phone isn't so good. Also read a post saying HTC were aware of this but an update wouldn't be available for sometime.
Hopefully someone else can shed some light!
Ben
I also noticed this the last few days with my Bury CC9056 carkit. I have my DHD since October 18th, and up till last friday it connected fine. Since then it connects to the carkit, but within a few seconds the connection is lost...
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Me too. My connection to my Jabra car kit is stable once connected... but trying to get it connected in the first place is a total headache.
Never had this problem with my Desire, so why HTC should change the Bluetooth function in the HD is a mystery.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
tbh i'm glad its not just me thats experiencing problems meaning it could be a software problem rather than something with my handset in particular.
I have been in touch with HTC about this, and I have just sent them the link to this thread so they can see i'm not the only one with this issue, so if anyone else has this issue it may be good to try and keep it all in here.

Mines also the audi in car system - do you find that you struggle to turn the bluetooth off and on again once it disconnects or that your phone becomes a little laggy until you turn the bluetooth off?
Yeah - I use the bluetooth widget on the home screen and once it disconnects, it will either take ages to turn off and on again, or it takes 2 presses to turn off.
I have just purchased a Plantronics 230 headset as need bluetooth for my job and it works perfectly - it's no where near the quality of the in car one though.
Also booked in my Audi as it's still under warranty - spoke to them on the phone and they said they will try and update the firmware but the Desire HD isn't on their supported phone list. Have seen a copy of this and not many phones are!!
I would of thought though, that as long as the phone does connect to the phone system in the car that it is compatible.
I have had 30mins once out of it before it disconnected and it was absolutely perfect in that time, including the phone book etc.
I do believe its something to do with the bluetooth on the phone as its a bit strange the way it struggles to turn on again once it fails.

That really hacks me off. I mean, BT is a standard. The only reason Audi can give for not supporting a phone that supports at least the same level of BT as them is that they (Audi) do not adhere to the BT standard.
Now, we all know in real life that cars and phones have problems/bugs/whatever BUT unless they can show that there is indeed a *bug* with the phone then the onus should be on Audi to support it.
Dave
Just for the record, it is not just Audi. With me it is together with the Bury carkit, where it first worked fine. (and also works with all other phones...)

I can confirm the issues with the BT. I have a parrot Mki9000 in my car and the first time when i tried to connect the DHD , the phone stopped to respond and I was forced to restart it. Since then the phone is paired with the car kit and works fine in a2dp mode for playing music, but when i try to make a call it simply not work. Yo better discribe the problem I will give an example:
The phone i properly connected and playing music, then it's ringing, but the ring sound is coming from the phone speaker not from the car. Then If i answer the call the sound comes from the phone (it shows that there is connection to the car kit). I've tried to press the speaker icon and there is a list with output devices (the phone, loudspeaker, and my car kit) I've tried to select the car kit several times , but there was no success. When I close the phone the music start to play from my car's BT system , so I think there is a problem with the handsfree function/protocol only a2dp works great , and I didn't have any issues with it. Also I've tried file transfer via BT, it works fine two.
Mitsubish Outlander carkit
I can confirm the same issue with the Mitsubish outlander carkit. It even happens that it drops the conversation. sometimes it's ok for half an hour, sometimes it disconnects after 1-2 minutes.
I also have a Jabra (bluetooth) headphone and noticed that if you pick up a call on the phone the sounds doesn't route to the headphone. If I pickup on the headphone it works fine.

I also have a Jabra (bluetooth) headphone and noticed that if you pick up a call on the phone the sounds doesn't route to the headphone. If I pickup on the headphone it works fine.

I have a Pioneer head unit with BT in the car and that seems to work OK, not withstanding the fact that the HU has BT issues of its own (hardware fix needed - I'll get a new unit rather than fix it as I want one with A2DP) but once connected it works fine.
I have a Plantronics headset that seems to exhibit the same problems as your Jabra. At least if I use the phone to answer the call the sound comes through the phone. Also, if I have been using the headset the next call I make goes through the phone speaker which is a pain.
I'm wondering if HTC are routing the sound through the device that's actually *controlling* the call? So even if a headset is paired and connected to the phone, if you use the phone to make the call, as most people would, then it assumes that that's where the sound should get routed. If so, doh .....!!!!!
Just to add, if the sound does get routed to the phone you can use the 'choose speaker' option on the screen to route it to the headset but you shouldn't have to do this.
Anyone reported these issues to HTC and got a meaningful response?

I did send an email to HTC. Their wonderfull answer was about: "is your phone mentionned in the compatabilylist of the carkit, if not drop the problem there"...
I am still waiting for a response from HTC.
Mines got to a point now where I cant even make a call, it connects to the car, I go through phone book (on car) choose person to call, press call.. it tries for a couple of seconds then comes up disconnected, about 10 seconds later the phone disconnects from the car and will nto reconnect.
My phone then lags like mad until I turn bluetooth off which according to watch tower is taking up about 80% of the CPU.
any updates/solution to all these problems ?
I need it to work with MW600 before buying Desire HD
Last contact I had with HTC is they told me it had been escalted to the software team, so i'm guessing next time a software update comes out it could come about in that, but at the minute no still not fixed.

I've always thought that that's the way it is on all BT headset phones, it makes sense, if the incoming call was for my girlfriend, she can answer from the phone itself, and it automatically routes this through the phones speaker, and if it was answered from the headset, then it routes to the headset.. makes sense to me, I think it's quite good that it does that!
Do any of you have the process com.android.phone crashing when making a phone call through BT?
Ditto my mitsubishi outlander factory bt system. Seemed to work fine first time but then disconnected during first call and would not reconnect for days. Then after connecting not all functions would work ...no incoming call alert on car system, no dialling from car etc. I know the car system is fine as all functions work perfectly with my old nokia xpress music.

I trust that all of you bother to report this to HTC, at least once per instance ?
- otherwise I don't know when they'll fix this..
