I'm looking at getting a Parrot MK6000 to stream bluetooth audio from my Wizard (Cingular 8125 w/A2DP ROM). However, I don't want to use Parrot's voice recognition for its tedious and limited built-in phonebook because I already have Microsoft Voice Command to control my Wizard. It's a deal breaker for me, especially considering the MK6000 costs over $200 with ISO wiring kit.
Can anyone with a similar Parrot car kit tell me if I can disable the Parrot voice recognition and just have the car kit mic pass voice commands to my phone like I do with my bluetooth headset?
To answer my own question, apparently "yes" thanks to a great user review by mpd at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293430 (could have sworn I searched for MK6000, but maybe I just searched for Parrot).
I am interested in using the Blackberry Bluetooth Gateway (with my TP2) to stream A2DP music and my navigation app voice instructions to my RV stereo using the 3.5mm aux output on the Blackberry Bluetooth Gateway.
I don't actually own the Blackberry Gateway yet, so if there is a better product, let me know.
Question is, can I use the Gateway bluetooth for the A2DP streams and still send/receive calls on my Jawbone Prime headset at the same time.
I know that the A2DP audio will not continue when I am on a call. That is fine. But can I maintain connections to 2 bluetooth devices simultaneously, one for A2DP and one for phone calls?
Was just messing about with the phone to see if i could and it worked perfectly. Not sure about two different audio devices but you can use 2 bluetooth devices at the same time.
i have been able to use an external bluetooth gps reciever (with tom tom 7) and my bluetooth headset at the same time.
For now, I'm just looking for recommendations on what bluetooth head unit works good. I'm going to go shopping this weekend.
But feel free to post your happy/unhappy stories/reviews about bluetooth head units with the Captivate.
Thanks.
FWIW Only slightly related: my Ghetto setup with the MOTOROKR T505 worked good with Captivate, fast handshake as long as bluetooth left on all the time with both devices. But I now have decided I need native integration into an aftermarket stereo.
I have an older Pioneer and the A2DP works great for streaming music, system sounds, navigation, etcs.
Calling on the telephone works great, no issues here.
There are two single DIN units out for this year:

I'm going to try mine on my Sony BT2500 and I'll post back the results when I get a chance.
This is what I am using, and I get full features from mine.
Music controls on handset or deck both work (and remote).
Caller ID/Missed Call/Call log scrollable menu on deck screen.
BT phone audio through speakers with included in car mic.
Full audio volume control.
Charging from USB port (with regular USB cable, some companies like Alpine you need their specific cable) and thumb drive play capability.
3.5 aux jack

FH-P8000BT; Voice Dial
Has someone tried the Pioneer FH-P8000BT? I uderstand it's a nice option but don't know if it works ok with Galaxy S's.
Also, is any of the head units mentioned above able to dial by voice? Is it functional?
Thanks all who responded. That's good to know there's a few good options.
happy shopping to me!
I have mine paired to my Kenwood kdc-x993. Contacts automactically downloads to the radio and you can store 7 contacts for speed dialing. Supports a2dp, voice recognition dialing and SMS (haven't test that yet).

I have had the Pioneer FH-P8000BT for a year or so. I am transitioning from a Zune, and have found the BT audio to be good on the Captivate, and the utit itself matches the phone perfectly. I haven't played with calling too much, but it worked fine on a couple of WM phones that i used. It has a USB out in the back, but I have not yet tried plugging it in with a micro USB (I'm waiting for a right angle micro-USB cable so that its a little more low-pro).
I had an EVO LTE and regardless of current audio (FM, Sirius, I-pod) when I would listen to a voice mail through my visual VM app the audio would come out of the speakers in the car automatically. I got rid of the EVO LTE and now have a Galaxy S3 and it would never automatically play the audio out of the door speakers automatically UNLESS I had the Bluetooth audio selected... until... today (and I didn't change any settings). I know now know that it is capable but the question is... how? I am pretty savvy when it comes to tech and now I can't listen to the audio without having Bluetooth selected. So...
For those with a Samsung Galaxy S3 Phone... Will you please start up your car, listen to some music from a source BESIDES Bluetooth audio stream and see if you can listen to your message by just hitting play on your visual voice mail app?
Thanks
I have a Bluetooth Handsfree Loopback with Malaysk 8.1 Rom included Bluetooth App on PX5.
Caller hears himself, I hear nothing.
Are there other Bluetooth Phone Apps I may be can set the Audio Channels manually?
I mean Bluetooth seems to work If caller Voice is rooted back to him Bluetooth in and Out
and Speaker and Mike work fine with Maps, Speak recognition and Answers spoken back, Music etc.
Probably only the different Bluetooth / Audio Channels are not properly connected.
No Tips about other Blutooth Phone Apps or Bluetooth Channel routing?
