a2dp problem and phone not ringing when call come

hi i have this a2dp bluetooth problem ? its to do with the a2dp problem
anyway when connected with A2DP mode, all incoming call ringtone will play to the stereo headset and the phone will not ring at all, (its as though the ringtone is diverted to the phone)
but if i switch it to headset mode (not A2DP), the ringtone will play on the phone and the headset with play a beep sound for incoming call.
how do i fix this?? I want it to be connected to a2dp and yet the ringtone still ring on my dopod phone...

I havent found away to fix this but every windows phone i have used will route all sound to the head set when using a2dp, but the intresting thing is that when i installed microsoft voice command it would play through the loud speaker

Under Windows Mobile 5 it worked but not under 6. Under WM5, all phone rings would come thru the external speaker (I liked this) and music thru the A2DP headset. Now under WM6, I get rings and music thru the headset. No phone ring externally. I hate this as I miss calls all the time because the earbuds are not always in my ears. I plan to search for some reg settings tonight (on my own). Anyone had any luck with changing this behavior?

Thanks.. Your comments helped to solve my issue.. I always want all audio routed to headset except for "Phone Ring". I want the phone to ring externally because I do not always have my earbuds in my ears therefore I miss calls. On all Faria WM5 roms, the phone would ring on the external speaker but under all WM6 roms (had not used Faria's yet; I am using 3G's) ALL audio is routed to headset including phone ring. It appears the reason Faria's ROM would ring externally is because Voice Command is cooked into the rom and voice command will rout rings externally because of voice notification (even though voice notification does not work in 1.6). I installed Voice Command 1.6 last night and the Phone now rings externally with all other audio routed to my A2DP headset. Been at this for weeks trying to figure out the behavior. I am now completely happy. I have a very stable WM6 ROM and A2DP that behaves the way I want.

Suppose I should have provided an update.. It only works on the first phone call after powering on the headset. Once I accept a call via the headset, it nevers rings externally again..

stereo headset transfers ring to headset, phone doesn't ring

I have the i-mate JASJAM (i.e. Hermes) which has A2DP. I bought the Jabra BT8010 stereo headset with headset profile and stereo profile. When I pair the two, every sound from the phone automatically gets transferred to the headset, which means the phone doesn't ring because the ringtone is also transferred. If I don't have the headset on I don't hear the phone ring.
I spoke to Jabra, they said I have to configure the phone somehow because the headset "just accepts whatever the phone sends".
Any ideas?

hey, same problem here
i have tried a few A2DP headsets(from other manufacturers)and with all of them the ring is streamed to the headset!
can any one help?

Are you kidding me? that's just one of the best things. How else do you know when you have a call when listening music? And why leave the headset paired when you don't use it? if you don't listen to music don't switch on the headset.

I don't always have my headset on my ear, I want the phone to ring. If the headset is disconnected, the phone doesn't always transfer an existing call to the headset if I turn on the headset only after the call has started.
So, I want to know if there is a way not to transfer the call ring (and all other device sound besides the call itself) to the headset...

hi Tsabar
Is the duration of your ringtone set to max?
My ameo rings over BT via my sony BT headphones and then rings half way thru via the phone's loud speaker

yeah, it just keeps ringing in the headset only

I would also like to know how to make the phone ring when the head set is plugged in.
I don't always have the headset in my ears but still want to hear the phone ring. There must be a setting to allow this somewhere.
Any ideas?

exact same problem here
using a htc mozart .. my bt head set picks up all sound, not only music and convo.. so i dont hear if someone calls me unless i wear my headset in my office at all times or turn it off with the need to turn it on (waiting forsync) whenever someone calls me...
thats absolutely stupid, who is the numbwit at Microsoft that got that idea?
actually the sounds (and lack of profiles realy need some work) im using this phone as a 3g business phone including mail, and evrything else..
now im also using the alarm feature but guess what you cannot make it "alarm only" you have to accept all the stupid notification sounds if you want to hear the sound of the alarm.. or like me disable the notifications from t.ex mails to avoi being woken up at night from that.. its so lame.
i can see that a low of features could be refactored on modern dauy phones.. but the win 7 mobile realy disnt do the job (yet).. i would rather wait for office support if i could have profiles..
another realy lousy thing is that you have to buy office 2010 including outlook to sync contacts ..older versions DONT work

searching Bluetooth Headset (Display / Vibration)

Hi!
First of all, sorry for my english, I'm from germany.
I'm new here, waiting for my O2 Diamond to be released
Therefore I'm searching for a Bluetooth headset. I don't want to carry the Diamond everytime in my trouser pocket but (if I have it with me) in my bag. I hate ringin phones so I'm searching for a headset that could notify me with vibration on incomming calls. Best would be if the headset has a display that shows me who is calling. Can you suggest me some headsets?
It would be terrific if the headset could notify me on incomming SMS / mail. Is that possible?
Regards
Daniel

Jabra bt8010
is a pretty good head set has caller id, 30 number phonebook, silent,vibrate,ring and ringtone from handset, also stereo headset

hi!
Thanks for your reply, I found the bt8010 myself. But I normaly need no stereo headset. I would prefer the bt800 (if I can get it anywhere).
Do you have the bt8010? Which OS is installed on you phone?
Any experiences about the caller id function? Is it possible that the Headset shows the same IDs as in your phonebook of your mobile?
And can someone give me a hint about the SMS / mail notification?

I believe the BT800 has been discontinued and replaced with the BT8010.
The phonebook/caller ID function is great, but the catch is you have to download the software separately, and manually input the entries into the headset itself, and it can only hold 30 entries.
Anything not in the headset's address book will just display as the number, not the name of the person calling.
You can get the software and such here:

The stereo speaker is detachable, so if you don't want stereo, just don't attach it.
I'm running Windows Mobile 6 on a Moto Q9c, and can't say enough good things about this headset. It has adequate sound quality and noise reduction mic; I've never had someone complain when talking on it.
As for email notification...I doubt it; the headset doesn't alert you when a new text message comes through (though the phone still reacts as normal).

Thanks for your answer Oh SoS

Yes, I think so. But maybe I can get the BT800 somewhere (eBay or so). Probably that woul be cheaper.

Are you sure about that? Is it impossible that the display shows the caller ID that is in the mobiles phonebook? or would that maybe work with some phones?

I heard only good stuff about Jabra so I think it will be one of them.

hihi, me too. But it would really be ingenious if that would work. I plan to have the headset the only thing in my pocket, so I would need the vibration of the headset to notice new text messages. I hate ringing phones.

yeah I have the 800, but its uncomfortable to wear for long periods and the display is not that bright. The 8010 can be worn as a mono headset. The 80l0 was a good start but the 8010 is much better, also can connect to 2 phones, not at the same time.

Hi Harry,
as you have the BT800, can you tell me if it notifies you for incoming SMS/mail?
Whit what mobile-phone do you use the BT800?

Plantonics Voyager Pro+ and BT prob

The phone rings both the headset and the evo.
When anwering the call with the evo the call is not transfered to BT. Answering the call via the headset works correctly.
Voice dialing doesn't work through the headset. The Evo seems to turn on the speakerphone instead of listening to the headset.
Any ideas? Should I get an Iphone instead? (kidding)

it is supposed to answer at the headset if you use the headset to answer the call so if your bluetooth is not within reach you can still answer the call. Are you initiating voice dial thru the headset with a long press...Ihave the Pro and it works fine with my EVO

same here, if i answer on the headset it goes straight to headset, if i answer on phone it goes to phone until i press the call button and it transfers over

Yes long press.
Are your sure that Evo is hearing you via the headset?
I'd like to long press and then say "call home", which works if I'm close enough to the phone. If its on the dashboard I almost have to SCREAM.

thats exactly how ALL BT headsets work, or are supposed to..
As far as voice dialing, it sounds like operator error, as I have the same headset, and it works perfectly for me all the time..

As far as operator error what could I possibly be missing? Its pretty straight forward.
Also I have the bug where in I speak to Vlingo and then turn off BT, EVO reboots.

[Q] Terrible call quality on bluetooth headset

when I paired my HOX to a plantronics bluetooth headset to make/receive calls, the person on the other end could hardly hear me, the sound is mumbled and broken, and when someone calls from Skype or Google Voice, there is a loud and squeaking sound almost like a fire alarm. does any one else experienced this? is there a solution? thank you so much in advance.

Test if the headset works with other devices.
