Hey guys, so the glitch in the OEM T-Mobile G2 rom, with the bluetooth music not working after a bluetooth call, has really got to me. I've been messing with Tasker for a while now trying to make a profile where it turns the bluetooth off and then on after a bluetooth call. Simple as that. But I can't seem to make it work. I don't want any auto-answer stuff, and I want it to do nothing if I decline or miss the call, because the music isn't affected after either of these events. Can you guys please give me an outline of the profiles, states, events, tasks, etc. that I need to create in order to make this work? I'm using the "Tasker" program. It would be nice if I can get it to connect to my bluetooth stereo headset after as well, because it usually takes a while if you just let it sit there. And then to automatically start the music again after the connection has been established. If not, just the off/on would be ok, cause if I press the play key on the bluetooth headset, it connects to the phone and starts to play the music. I just need to press it like 3 times, because for some reason the first time it always starts playing through the speaker. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
any ideas? Its possible, right?

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 everybody,
Hope that someone can help me here with the following:
On my motorbike I have an (Starcom1) motor intercom.
I can speak to the passenger, listen to navigation, listen to music and talk to another motorbike. All fine.
Now I use (of course) WM6 devices. Currently the HTC Cruise.
Before I had it set up via my Garmin Navigator, phone rings, number appears on screen and I can decide to pickup or not.
Problem was that on short rides, it is too much hassle to put the navigator on all the time and I hoped to find a better way to still recieve phonecalls.
SO I paired my phone straight to the Bluetooth box on my Starcom.
The problem is that, according to Starcom, my phone needs to be in autoanswerring mode to be able to use it.
Of course this works but is not exactly what I have in mind. Now it is on autoanswer alll the time or I have to go through long menu's to switch it on and off, if I get away from the bike.
I see two options but have not found a solution:
There is some kind of 'connecting' profile system thats switches to autoanswer when it detects a BT headset or special device.
Use voice commands but I have found I always need to press the button to be able to use this. Would there be a method to answer a call without touching the phone in my pocket?
Please give me your thoughts and suggestions.
Hi all -
I bought a HTC Touch Pro 3-in-1 Synch & Charge Stereo Audio 3.5mm adapter w/ microphone, hoping I can be able to use it while listening to MP3 music while charging my phone and capable of picking up calls in my car.
This is the item I bought: http://www.pdaextreme.com/2750.html
I noticed that everytime I use it, I would be able to listen to music for a short while then all of a sudden the Voice Speed Dial would go off or it would make calls repeatedly then I would unplug it and it would stop.
Can anyone tell me why this is happening and what I can do to prevent it from going off? It's really strange, I suspect that there some kind of shortcircuit in the adapter. Need help.
Thanks in advance,
elfnet
I know what you mean, i have a similar setup and specially when im listening to internet radio on skyfire or music on S2P it goes crazy and i have to unplug, for the voice dialer i disable it, just go on the options. but for the redial of the last number i have no clue on how to stop it. I hope someone here has a good solution to our problem!
I got a universal Car Dock and I am trying to do everything hands-free but I am having issues:
1. I am using VLingo and when I get a call, I have to physically answer the call instead of being able to use my voice.
2. When I answer a call it does not automatically go into speakerphone mode, so I have to physically switch it.
3. When navigating to an address, VLingo voice commands no longer work, unless I manually switch.
What I would like, and I don't know if there is something out there that could help:
1. I want to use my voice to do everything from answering calls, navigating, playing music, etc.
2. When in other apps, I still would like voice commands to still work.
If anyone has any insight, or how I can configure things it would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

I dunno about 100% voice control, but I recently started using a car dock too and hate the default Vlingo car app/mode. I downloaded CarHome Ultra from the market and tested for free. It can automatically disable wifi, enable bloothtooth/connect to device, automatically launch when in the car dock, you can create shortcuts to any apps. I think all voice control would be nice, but I haven't found any that were reliable
I have a Verizon G3 but figure this forum gets more eyeballs, and perhaps this is a universal Bluetooth issue.
I use the LG Tone+ HBS-730 headset with my phone. If I go into a music app and start playing music through my headphones with the app, no problem. But, let's say I pause music for a while, or turn the headphones off for a bit. I turn the headphones back on, press the play button on the right side, and nothing happens. The headset is still on - I can long-press a button and get the double-beep, but my music won't play. Sometimes it does, but most of the time, it doesn't. I switched from the stock Music player to Rocket Player, which has proven to be a little more successful.
Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere, or is this a common BT occurrence? Control is through the AVRCP BT profile, I believe. I know on my G2 I'd sometimes lose control sync with my phone, where I couldn't skip or pause the track through my headphones. This new problem seems like a magnification of that problem.
Overall, I do find the BT performance a little worse than the G2. I get more audio drops when the phone is in my pocket, but this is when I'm outside and BT is not great outside in general.
Thanks everyone - I have five days to decide if I want to return this phone, between this and some signal problems.
bluetooth connects. calls ok. media plays on device.

I come from the philippines and i have the g3 also. my bluetooth connection was fine it connected to my car and headset but now it only receives calls but does not play music through my bluetooth headphones. when i press the play button on my headset it plays on the device itself. checked under bluetooth setting and call and media and audio was checked.
my device is rooted. i did a factory reset but the problem remains unfixed. please help. i have installed g3 tweaksbox but i dont see any mods that is related to music apps. i dont know what to do. i have considered unrooting and flashing stock rom.
Also interested in this, as I have the same issue but my car.
Op, did you ever find a fix, or work around?
OP
Do you have any other BT programs loaded? I had something similar when I had the Sony app and a Garmin app loaded. Both use BT to connect to their devices and they were interfering. I removed the Garmin one and my play/pause button started working again
