Is it possible to have my phone automatically pair up and start using it as the audio device when I turn bluetooth on? I have the new AT&T Tilt and bought a Motorola DC800 bluetooth receiver for my car. I'm new to this whole pda phone thing - and as of right now - I have to go into the settings of the bluetooth menu and click/hold on the DC800 and say "Set as Wireless Stereo"... since I get in and out of the car a lot - I'm looking for a way to avoid having to do these extra clicks...
Any registry tricks or programs that will auto connect for me?
Look for A2DP Toggle. It should solve your problem... not that it would automatically pair, but give you a much easier way to accomplish the above than what you are doing at the moment.
Hi,
I have a question about bluetooth on my Cruise. I have a bluetooth Headset "Logitech Mobile Freedom Headset" (bluetooth 1.2 and no a2dp).
My problem is that it is not detected by my phone.
Is there a way to do it works ?
Thanks
I need a little bit more details:
What have you already done? Have you ever had a running bluetooth port?
Normal procedure should look like:
Is your bluetooth device set to receive signal?
On mobile go to settings - connections - bluetooth. Folder devices: Is the device already visible? Otherwise type in Add new device. Now you should see the new device. Do your headset require a password? Type in the same as given in the manual. Connection is established.
probably you have to put headset in pairing mode, otherwise your phone cannot detect it....
Hi,
Thanks for your responses.
stefan1959: my device is not visible by my phone, even I add new device.
my bluetooth is active and my headset is on. I have another phone (Samsung D500) and my headset is detected by it.
But I have paired it a long time ago, and it is already known by my phone (D500).
I will look at the manual (if I find it !) if there is a special thing to do to put the headset in pairing mode (thanks nushuth).
I'll post here when I did it.
Thanks

There usually is special procedure. Headsets do not operate in discovery/pairing mode all the time, so your problem solution should be there.
Ok thanks everybody. It works with paring mode.
I forgot it because I have another headset and there is no need to do that.
Thanks again.
Hi guys need some advice from people.
I used to be able to connect to my itech bluetooth automatically once i "on" my bluetooth connection previously with Sony k800i.
However;
I have always to "ON" bluetooth-> follow by "Set as Wireless Stero" in order paired the both devices(HTC raphael) together.
Is there any other way or suggestions to resolve this minor issue?
Thanks ..........
sounds like something mort scripts should do try searching for that

I've seen the question (and the answers) several times here; But not for freeware versions.
The request is quite simple: Automatically turn on the Bluetooth when HD2 is placed in active carholder, so it recieves power. And BT off again, after removing from power.
Several paid programs can do it with profiles. But I don't need all the profiles, just one nifty little app to do the BT-toggle-at-power-toggle-trick. Bluepower should do the trick, but that doesn't work on HD2 sadly.
I allready placed a shortcut at the todayscreen, but it can be done automatically, so it should be done automatically. (you get the idea? It CAN be done, so it HAS to be done... )
Anyhow: does anyone know of a freeware app that does the trick, turning on BT at power-connected, and off again at power-disconnected?
Thanks in advance!
looking for this too!
fantastic idea, i see no reason for bluetooth to be disabled when connected to a power supply.if anyone can do it xda can!
google this
kixass bluepower
It worked for me , while I still had the Touch Diamond and Touch HD
Haven't tried it on HD2, but, hopefully it will work
I allready found kixass bluepower, but another thread here on XDA says it doesn't work on HD2 due to different Bluetooth methods:

@SMS92: it's the other way around: connect to power = BT on, disconnect = BT off. (Hence power comes from the active carholder, but the audio-signal is connected via BT)
I'm not sure if i understand you correctly but don't you mean ?
Settings > All settings > System > Car kit mode > "Auto connect when in car kit mode" ??
greetz,

No, for that the bluetooth allready has to be on (Or am I mistaken? EDIT: YES!!!! I'm mistaken!!)
I'd like the BT to be off all day, except when I'm in the car. For that's the only place where I use BT. After getting out of the car the BT should be switched off again.
In order to do this automatically the phone needs to know whether I'm in the car. The easiest trigger for that is the power-connection, as I place the phone in an active phone holder (Brodit). This action could then trigger BT to switch on automatically, and removing the phone from the holder (and therefore from the power) should switch BT off again.
(The BT is used to connect to the built-in carkit in the Mazda 6), Power to the phone is supplied via the active carholder, which ONLY gives power, no audio-connection.
EDIT!!! OOOOW WAIT!!!!! YOU ARE RIGHT!!!!!!
WOW!!!! So simple.....
(Settings > All settings > System > Car kit mode > "Auto connect when in car kit mode")
So no special app needed, no profiles, no reg-changes, just a mere setting.
I LOVE HTC! Soooo much clever things in this HD2!
Just tested: BT off, connect to carpower: BT switched on automatically. Remove from power: BT switches off again. So this works!!!
(I didn't have time to test actually connecting to the car in this modus, but normally it works, so I assume this last bit works too.
You're my hero! (ok, that's a bit exegerated, but you get the idea) THANKS!
EDIT: see post below for last status.... sh*t.....
Ehr...... Sh*t.... My Brodit holder doesn't connect the right pins to trigger the carmode, and therefore the BT doesn't automatically switch on.
My desktop loader uses a converter cable, and that one DOES trigger the carmode
So.... sorry, no solution yet....
Found this in another thread. Could this help you ?

Thanks, but no, that doesnt work on the HD2.
Has something to do with changed Bluetooth system in the HTC models after the touch?
A similar request thread has been started here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=667901&goto=newpost
Im following it too, and hope it will lead to development of a cab for this much wanted function.
I don't know how the carmode works, but issn't it possible to edit the registry to activate the carmode when the phone is on any kind of charger, instead of when some pin is connected? Then you would combine two functions witch are already on the phone.
Brodit activation of car kit mode
Has anyone succeeded in getting the Brodit car holder to automatically activate NaviPanel?? I see in other posts that if pin 4 of the micro USB is grounded it auto switches NaviPanel - has anyone else tried this yet?
Hi ppl,
I'm having issues with bluetooth on mytouch4g phone.
To connect it to hands free set I have to every time turn off and then turn on bluetooth on my phone.
Anyone have similar issue?
Is there a setting somewhere to set default device?
Thanks
Do you mean "Hands free mode" or do you mean pairing a stereo BT headset?
With the stock OS -- "Hands free mode" can be set by either 1) starting the Car Dock application, or 2) Using the BT headset phone button or the Genius button to enable speech commands, and saying "Hands Free On" once the phone is ready.
With the stock OS -- pairing of the phone occurs automatically whether the phone or headset is powered up first. Pairing of media (for stereo headsets) will only occur automatically with any degree of regularity -- from experimentation and observation by others, reported on forums like this -- if the phone's BT is powered up =after= the headset. One can manually disable and enable media connectivity after long pressing on the device in the BT settings window, and that will establish the media connection -- but it is probably easier to have a BT power toggle on your home page somewhere.
If neither of these answers the question you were asking, please rephrase it. And of course, for a custom ROM (non-stock OS), ask in the appropriate ROM's thread in the development subforum.
I mean bluetooth at car. I'm able to pair my phone with car and connect with no issues.
If I get into the car with my phone and bt on - it will not establish connection. I have to turn off bt on the phone and turn it back on. Then it will establish connection. It works fine with my old Fuze.
