bluetooth problems?

Anyone else having bluetooth problems or is this operator error?
I can switch bluetooth on, make my handset visible, pair with other devices and receive files from other handsets, however when I try to send anything, I can't connect to paired devices and bluetooth hangs meaning I have to switch my handset off and on.
I was using bluetooh last night and all was ok
but unlike my last phone c902 the bluetooth is on a timer then turns off visibility
Working fine for me. Paired up my bluetooth headset and will still be working hours later even if I haven't interacted between them.
It's strange, devices show as paired but not connected and I can't make them connect.
Have been able to use BT for file transfer between my Desire and laptop and HD2. Also connected to my Plantronics BT headset. I think you need to have an appropriate BT driver for some devices like BT keyboards.
I too am having minor issues.
The wife's hands free kit (Parrot CK3000 evo) in the car supports voice dialling by sending contacts to it and then recording a tag which is associated with the contact. This way the kit can do the voice dialling for handsets that don't support it.
For some reason the Desire refuses to send contacts to the hands free kit claiming it doesn't support the correct bluetooth profiles. This obviously isn't the case as all the other phones we have tried work perfectly with the CK3000.
Only a minor issue, as in my car which has the CK3300 everything works fine (including syncing the phonebook to the car kit). It's more of a problem for the wife though, as she wants to upgrade to the Desire on Saturday when her contract is up for renewal but at the minute won't be able to voice dial from the car.
Dae.
Strange. I'll try connceting to my laptop later.
I too am having difficulty sending files over bluetooth. I can accept files fine, from any source, yet cannot send from my HTC Desire. First the notification says complete, but 0 files sent. Then going inside it shows it has failed. And then clicking it and retrying shows Unknown file. What's going on??
Tried sending to two mobile phones, and a Windows 7 laptop. Easily works the other way around. Also, sometimes I can't turn my bluetooth off properly, it just crashes the chip while turning off and can't turn it on or off until I reboot. Thought it might be Advanced Task Killer, but tried the same thing immediately after a reboot and still can't send files. Any ideas?
still no closer to solving this, I think it may be going back tomorrow.
I'm also having problems...
I have the Parrot CK3200 LS-COLOR and it connects to the phone ok, or vice versa and then it always falls over when trying to sync the contacts... It shows my facebook profile pic and then it fails.
If I dial a contact through the phone, or receive a call, it comes out fine through the speakers.
So I'm wondering if it's something to do with the way the the desire handles contacts.
Sorry if there's been a resolution to this, I did search first
me to also having the same problems. spent 4 hours on google last night and still no closer.
Weird as it might sound, I had no issues connectiong to car stereo. But when I tried to pair it with friends mobile, SonyEricsson c902 - it crashed!
I was trying to send a picture file I have downloaded using bluetooth.
Also, can anyone tell me how to send a mp3 file I have downloaded off the internet to another mobile using bluetooth?
Thanks
Have you enabled FTP under Bluetooth advanced settings? I have no problem transfering files to and from PC or other mobile phone. Also make sure the device is dicroverable and paired.
I had a similar problem which I wrote to HTC about: I paired and connected the Desire with my bluetooth car head unit and it works fine for phone & audio, but it will not auto connect each time I get in the car and I have to go through the pairing process and enter a code each time. Voice dialling also doesn't work. My previous handset (Touch HD) connected automatically if the bluetooth was on so I don't think it's a problem with the head unit. Someone suggested it might be due to an old bluetooth protocol on the head unit (I'd like to avoid having to replace it if possible).
i managed to send a file to another htc desire today, last time i tried, i admit i didn't enable the ftp service, however I could not send via bluetooth to a nokia n96 but to be fair, my desire probably just didn't want anything to do with it . but on a serious note I cant seem to get it to send to my windows 7 x64 disto.

take that back .. apart from the N96 joke.. reason windows was not accepting was because avast anti virus was blocking it.

HTC Desire & Parrot CK3000

Hello everyone.
New poster here looking for advice (bit cheeky I know )
I have had my HTC Desire for a week or so and I am trying to pair it with the parrot ck3000 in my car. I have erased the memory of the parrot and turned the bluetooth on on the phone. The phone finds the parrot ok but when I try to pair it I get an error on my phone telling me "There was an error pairing with the parrot ck3000"
I am getting very frustrated as I don't know what to try next.
Any advice please.
Thanks in advance.
Pairing

Hi There Solozzo,
Hope the below helps you out if you have not tried them yet...
1. Is your Blue tooth device Visable, not just on... That wont do the trick. You should have a mode tab at the bottom or on the later versions a settings tab to make your device available/visable. (the bluetooth icon in your task bar would have a small eye if its visable)
2. Once its asking you to pair the device to the parrot you should have a stock pass key from the parrot to enter to the phone to make the pair work together.
I connected to a Nokia headset yesterday for the first time and the only way it worked was with the correct passkey
Good Luck!
Hope this helps!
Hi Sollozzo,
Did you find a solution?
I have exactly the same problem with the old Parrot CK3000 (not the Evo one) and my HTC Desire.
Hope you can help me
Thanks
I'm also using a Parrot CK3000 and a HTC Desire. The first time I wanted to connect the phone a had to search for the parrot (from the phone).
Connecting was'nt a problem.
Because a changings to different rom's all the time, I have to re-establish the connection everytime by letting the phone search for the parrot. I works all the time.
Hope this helps
Having this issue now with the OD en Oxygen ROM. Anyone got this working on Oxygen ROM? It works fine on stock HTC and Modaco ROM.

[Q] Sync call lists via bluetooth

Hello everyone
I am running the Virtuous ROM and I'm having a small problem. Whenever I try to connect to my Kenwood car stereo (Parrot bluetooth hands-free system, I think) I can make and receive calls just fine, only the call lists don't get synced.
I might be wrong, but doesn't one usually have to give the hands-free permission to do that first? Interestingly enough, the two devices are pairing without any kind of password whatsoever. I find this rather strange and an FTP server aside, I haven't found many options to adjust in the bluetooth settings.
Am I missing something obvious here?
Regards and thank you.
Anybody? Anything?

Just connect wildfire to pc via bluetooth and make sure the bluetooth adapter in your pc supports a2dp then it will work no extra software needed. However my PC picks up calls automatically which i don't know how to stop
I wish I could have this one solved too, it is vital for me to use my laptop headset to answer my phone, as I already use it to answer skype and other IP phones, but the auto answer thing is a KILLLLER

[Q] Adding HTC Desire Bluetooth Profiles??

Hi could someone please help me out please
I have a Supertooth Buddy Handsfree Kit and It connects to my HTC Desire, but it only connects on the Phone Audio profile and NOT the Media Audio profile... My N97 seems to work fine it can stream Media Audio and Phone Audio
Right I contacted HTC see if they could help they said its impossible to do that Nokia phones do it coz they have more Bluetooth profiles than HTC coz they helped create the the technology....
okay to the point I know stuff can be hacked and altered/added (unofficial/illegally whatever you wanna call it) so I came across this How to connect mini bluetooh keyboard to Desire Froyo
That thread up there seems to explain how to add a Bluetooth Keyboard, so am guessing its actually adding in a Profile.
Is it possible that someone can help me out on this? I already have a rooted phone.
