I have a Skypower bluetooth clip on headset and also a Sony Ericsson HBH-65 headset. Both work fine for pick up/cancel calls when using the xda2 with nothing installed. Because I have a Holux bluetooth gps, I needed to install the fantastic blutooth tools program which made the gps operate flawlessly, however if I now discover and pair either headset neither will work. They both bring up bluetooth tools, I have only one installed at any one time, I install as headset and everything seems fine but when making/receiving calls with headset mode activated, the headset does nothing, the calles arent routed to the headset, its as if the headset doesnt exist. Anybody have a suggestion please :?:
I have now reverted to pocket bluetooth tools 1005 and everything working normally again. If anybodt else has this problem please let me know if you managed to solve it as I prefer the latest bluetooth tools.
The only problem i found with the new bluetooth tools is that you have to click on the 'bluetooth headset is enabled' in the profile menu which you really need to keep on the today screen all the time, i found i just tap the bluetooth icon in the bluetooth tools menu, then tap on the enable in the profile menu and i can the make and end and answer calls using the button on the headset, when making calls you can only dial either the number you just typed in, or the last number dialled
Bluetooth tools e Qtek 2020
Where can I find 'bluetooth headset is enabled' ?
Thank you,
Click Start, Settings, Today, then the items tab. Put a tick in the "profile" box.
Cheers

I'm sure you've heard of this issue before but I was unable to find a fix!
I have been using VC1.6 through strictly the device mic / speaker and it has worked great except for some reason it does not announce incoming calls.
Currently using ATT TILT with WM6
Using 520 Plantronics BT Headset
I downloaded "Bluetooth Voice Command Configuration" from XCSdM but it doesn't seem to do anything to help!
When I press the talk/end button on the Headset it enables the bluetooth static but it does not give the VC prompt.
I'd also like it to be able to announce incoming calls through the bluetooth!
Anyone?!
Well, I got the incoming calls to announce!!! Now all I need to do is find out how to get the VC1.6 and my bluetooth synced so that when I press my bluetooth headset button it activates the VC...
Please? LOL
Does your bluetooth headset support the handsfree profile? Not all headsets support the handsfree profile (even if you can use it to pick up and answer calls). I've got VC 1.6 and voice command working just fine with my Tilt and Jabra 8010.
edit: seems your plantronics does support the HFP. Did you ensure you "checked" the box for Hands Free Service when you paired it?
Yes, it's completely paired and the handsfree is checked :-\
I'm stumped. I get incoming call notifications, I get announcement reminders, etc.... but when I push the button on the headset it tries to initiate (or answer) a call.... If I hold it down, it powers off the headset. If I double click it, it calls the last person I talked to.
Maybe I just don't know how to function my headset to get it to prompt for VC?
I followed the "RandyRants" Tip to get everything working and it did activate the announcement of incoming calls, etc... just can't make commands yet.
I'm also using the BT VC Config enabled @ 30 duration.
I'm 1/2 way there!! Now I just need to cross the finish line...
Here's the link yo RandyRants that I followed: http://www.randyrants.com/2007/05/wm6_tip_voice_c.html
Any advice?
I currently have a program called cicleBT that turns BT on and off with the push of a button (without having to navigate thru to the comm manager)...
Would it be hard to make a program that did this and then once bluetooth was on it would automatically make my first BT device "set as wireless stereo"??
i find it a pain that everytime i want to hook up my stereo headphones i have to go into the bluetooth settings and set it as wireless stereo after turning on device visible to other devices...
What would i need to be able to do to do this?
thanks
This isn't the software your asking for, but once your headphones have established the headset link, try pressing the play button on them. Works on all bluetooth headphones I've used.
Ok I am going to ask this question because there are way to many bluetooth programs here and I need to find a specific one.
All I want is for when I turn my headset on and its connected to my phone I want it to transfer the sounds to the headset and pull the microphone from the headset. So when its connected it immediately sends the sound to the headset; Not just in call sounds. I mean all sounds. I am using VITO VOice command so I just need it to send the sound to the headset and pull the microphone form the headset. Also I need it to send teh sound back to the headset after a call as well if a call is happening while using the headset for sound.
Can this be done?
try this

Thanks nir36, I've just tried BTaudio but, unfortunately, it doesn't seem to reconnect the audio gateway after a call ends.
----
What I use is a program called BtMusic (available here: http://maxmobilesoft.com/index.php/software/btmusic). It is shareware, I think, but does pop up a message box when opening the program and every 5 or so times the gateway is established. I believe you can donate to get rid of these prompts, but you'd have to ask the author through that website. It isn't annoying if you don't need to keep reconnecting very often. BtMusic seems to have some advantages:
1. Reconnects automatically after a call ends.
2. Does not need the headset to be turned on before being enabled - it waits for the headset to connect and connects the gateway when it is found (you can therefore leave BtMusic running in the background and just turn on and off the headset as needed!).
3. Supports stereo headsets.
All the best,
Martin
Anybody have any other ideas?
I used an HP iPAQ 6955 (WM5) for nearly 2 years prior to my newly acquired Touch Pro. It had the ability to use my BT headset as an "Audio Gateway" which is EXTREMELY convenient when using a GPS NAV application as you get the directions in your ear, rather than through the phone's speaker.
I can't seem to find anywhere on the Touch Pro to enable this "feature"? My BT headset works great for calls, but I cannot get any other audio sent to the headset.
Ideas?

one bund the a2dp able headset to the pda

I am having the same trouble. I'm trying to stream internet radio from my Fuze to my car through the bluetooth. I can send/receive calls and everything is great but can't play music. When paired the option for Stereo Headset is grayed out and it only works as a regular earpiece. I have tried the Blue Music and BT audio with no luck. Neither one worked.
Any other ideas?

Have you done it (using BTAudio) the right way? You have to connect your BT headset FIRST and THEN start the BTAudio application and switch it to on. Don't forget to switch it to off afterwards.

Thanks for the info. I'll try it later today.

Your car's bluetooth system may not support streaming audio. Mine does not, even though it pairs in stereo with my fuze.

I read the manual and it says that it does support streaming music if the phone supports it. So I assume there is something needed in the phone. I looked in the Advanced Config Tool 3.3 and under the Bluetooth category there are two services listed for Audio Gateway and that is disabled by default. Is that something that could be the problem?
Works great!

Finally got around to installing the BTAudio earlier this week, and it works great. I now get the GPS directions in my Bluetooth headset, as well as other audio alerts, like new e-mail and SMS alerts.
Only gripe is that after answering a phone call, you have to stop and start the BTAudio app again. Guess it's the price of getting what I want?

It might be. Enable it and see what happens.
I just got a Bluetooth headphone/headset (with mic) to use with my GT7+ (GT-P6210 wi-fi only) and my semi-smart phone. The headset (Motorola MOTOROKR S305) has three different pairing modes: music only, phone only, and both.
When I pair it with my little phone, it automatically pairs as both. It works fine as a phone headset (mic and earphones), and it works fine as a stereo headphone with the phone's music player.
When I pair it with my GT7+, it automatically pairs as music-only. There is no microphone function. With Bluetooth off, I can make calls using the GT7+ built-in mic and speaker and the GrooVe IP app. No problems. But with the Bluetooth headset paired, I just don't get the mic function. I can hear the phone audio in the earpieces, but the mic is dead.
Is there any workaround? Is there a way to get the GT7+ to identify itself as a phone-capable as well as music-capable device for the purpose of Bluetooth pairing? (That's what I think must be missing.)
TIA.
I can't speak for that particular headset but I successfully use a jabra (phone headset only) and GV with my tab plus. However, before I had a A100 tab and I had similar mic problems with the same jabra headset...so the whole compatibilty thing seems to be hit or miss.
I assume you checked settings to confirm there are no options to adjust mic? Also, you might see what happens if you pair and use GV right after boot.

I did check settings and I didn't find anything relevant. I also tried pairing while GrooVe IP was running and logged into GV. I'll try that again right after boot. Thanks.
