Hi,
How to set up my bluetooth headset and TC to call over Skype?
Thanks!!
As far as I know, this is a software limitation of Skype, so its not possible. Although, I would think if you could somehow keep the bluetooth gateway open, Skype and bluetooth could work, but you would have to manually enable the gateway and close the gateway...
yeah, you can use BTaudio
of course you have to enable it before using skype.
It works both for audio in (hearphone) and audio out (microphone).
My SE 662 headset which I used for conferencing through http://www.rhubcom.com are also integrated with skype but there was no way to use the buttons or display on my headset to interface with skype. Now my buttons can dial people, or hangup skype not just disconnect the BT connection.

I want to record my phone conversations when I am using my Bluetooth headset (Because I drive alot).
At the moment it is not possible to record a conversation while using the Bluetooth headset. (I don't want to use a cable headset, because I get in and out the car alot).
The problem that occurs is that when recording with windows mobile it records your own voice, but not the voice on the other side.
I have tried with many other PocketPC's but I can't find anything that works.
Try it yourself if you don't understand whta I mean.
Does anybody have a solution for me?
Thx!
Possibly the problem is that when the headset is enabled the speaker of the phone is disabled.
So if somehow the speaker keeps working even when bluetooth headset is enabled it will record the conversation on the other side.
Hi guys,
Have just installed skype but for some reason it outputs to the device loud speaker rather than the earpiece speaker. Any idea how to change this?
Cheers
I discovered the same thing - using the earplugs that come with the phone will isolate it though, and I assume a bluetooth handsfree set as well.
Bluetooth headset doesn't work for me in Skype, only the wired headset that ships with the device (which is fine).
I have used Skype on the Orbit2. It appeared the same problem and i think there is no solution at the moment. Maybe you can test it with the fring client.
I using Fring for my VOIP and output is on loud speaker as well
Does Fring work for you? The latest version always deletes my WiFi settings (does the same on my Prophet), and I have the hideous malarky of re-entering the WEP key.
yeah this is an old problem, it existed back in the day of the TyTn. It appears it's still unclear if this is a WM or Skype problem. You can use a bluetooth device if you reroute the audio using a third party application:

Bluetooth headset works great with mobile phone
But it's not working the program of Tango and Skype
Is there a way to make it work with chat programs?
Weird...
Skype using a bluetooth headset works perfectly for me.
Do you use the same headset with music audio?
I can't do it with my Jabra paired for phone audio.
I find that Skype uses the tablet's microphone even when a bluetooth headset is paired and audio is coming out of the headset speakers. Googling it , this seems to be a longstanding Skype bug. Has anyone found a way to get Skype to use the bluetooth headphone mic?
Thanks
Android needs to enable bluetooth mike system wide, just like in other OS.
There are other apps that can use this, not only skype.
Some of them are web based, like making calls with bobsled.

It's not an Android problem, per se. I use a Motorola stereo bluetooth headset that can be used for phone calls too with my Android phone with no problems on cell phone calls and Sipdroid (for VOIP). I would suspect Skype still has bugs with bluetooth, which is a fairly recent addition to their Android software. OP, the Skype forums might be your best avenue for help. There are numerous users in the Skype forum reporting problems with bluetooth using Skype.

What I am trying to say is that, just like when you plug in the wired headset the sound is rerouted to the headset's earphones (disabling the device's speakers) and the microphone input is rerouted to the headset's mike (disabling the device's mike), the same should occur when the device pairs with a BT headset.
This is what happens when I pair my win xp pc to a BT headset. This way, the audio I/O change is system wide, and can be used by all apps.
Furthermore, additional settings in the device's settings screen could allow the user more control, like simultaneous use of the device's speakers and the BT earphone, (say you want to let a person next to you listen in to your conversation).
P.S. I wonder what the right place is to submit this to Android development...
