I have tried searching the forums and can't find much Info.
Is anybody here using the above system for telephony & GPS; If so how do they intergrate/do they work well on the XDA II (I have ROM Version 1.72 with Radio1.17)
I Know about the headset profile probs not giving full functionality of the Handsfree use of the car kit but this doesn't bother me to much as long as I can Make and receive calls.
Thanks in anticipation!
I was going to get a CK3100, but heard so many problems regarding build quality, and lack of support, I got a HCB 30 instead.
It did not help when I tried to e-mail parrot for advice and 3 different e-mail adresses bounced back.
Works Perfect!
Just had the CK3300 installed today and it works perfectly - I Knew some of the functions didn't work because the XDA2 only supports headset profile but once you have transferred your contacts to the kit via bluetooth it works well.
Also the GPS works well with CoPilot 5 live; it picked up the signal straight away ; well pleased with this set up!!
same to me have the ck3300 tested with qtek2020 - works fine. problems with 9090 but after bluetooth update now it works fine. No tests with S100 at this time.
tested GPS with destinator 3 and map&guide fleet navigator and mobileobjects fleet management system.
don't use bluetooth tools after Rom 1.66 :!: CK3x00 didn't work aber installation of this

Any tips on setting up the CK3300 with my XDA2?
Just had the car kit fitted - i need both nav and handsfree functions - but i am not sure that i have got the phone and ck3300 to bond properly. So everything is 'greyed out' on the parrot.
Using ROM 1.72.00WWE (1.72.181) and radio 1.17.00
Thanks for any help received.
If everything is greyed out then it isn't bonded properly!
Step 1
Delete the pairings you have from XDA2 and car Kit;
Step 2
On the car kit turn the control knob untill settings appear- then scroll to 'Advanced Settings' - 'pairing a telephone' - 'windows CE device'
Step 3
Now search for devices using your XDA2 and the car kit should be shown.
Step 4
Enter passcode 1234 and accept headset and serial profiles when shown.
PAIRING COMPLETE
to access your phonebook you need to transfere the contacts via bluetooth to the car kit.
Hope this helps
XDA2 CK3300
Managed to get the GPS set up (fiddling with COM ports - even imbeciles strike lucky sometimes)
Some items are now in black. However, I am not sure that I have done it right as I cannot get it to use my phone to make calls or receive them. Which is exactly why I bought it in the first place.
So, please (please please) can you tell me how to exchange my phonebook?
I am going to sit in the car right now and have a go at your bonding advice...maybe all will become clear (but that is not often my experience!)
Thanks again for your help.
You need to bond the phones in the manner I described or it will not work ; this is clearly ststed in the Parrot instructions and on their website.
(I have noticed a strong correlation between people who do not read instructions and complain things do not work!!) - Joke
You also need to make sure your headset profile is active on the XDA 2 for it to work. Again reading the instructions for the phonebook - you tap and hold a contact on the XDA2 and select 'beam contact' - 'via bluetooth' the bluetooth search then comes up and the car kit will be found you then 'tap to send'
Now i have the opposite problem!
Believe it or not, I have now got the XDA2 and the CK3300 bonding automatically so I can make and receive calls whilst driving. It works pretty well (occasionally makes an awful noise, but only occasionally). I am impressed.
However, once I had done that, the GPS is undetectable. I have tried all sorts of combinations. I have checked the instructions - and selected the long code (ends in 9600) but I am not certain that I am using the right com port. I have tried most of them without success.
Oddly, this is the one thing that WAS working before I got the car kit to work (for calls). Somehow, either I have lost the right settings OR the XDA2 won't do both (although I read somewhere that it would) OR my ROM needs updating (uh?)
Please help.
BTW, I am due a phone upgrade - I love the xda2 but would consider getting another phone if necessary, if anyone can recommend one that is fully CK3300 and TomTom compatible.
I don't use Tom Tom myself but from reading these forums I think you need to install the patch on their website to allow Tom Tom to use the correct Port .
Your Car Kit also needs it's software updating if it makes a noise like you say. On the Car Kit go to > settings-advanced settings-information and you will find the software version (sounds like 4.03) if it makes a noise. The latest on the Parrot website is 4.10b and this will fix the noise issue.
If you need help installing this let me know.
The best Phone is surprisingly the Old Fashioned Nokia 6310i - it has a good bluetooth stack and uses the handsfree profile rather than the headset so contacts sync automatically but if you require live traffic info best stick with what you got as the Nokia will not pair with the XDAII and the car kit at same time.
Which COM port?
For the moment, I have a temporary solution.
However, I have updated the TomTom Navigator software and the GPS, but still don't know which port the GPS in the CK3300 should be connected to.
Any ideas?
And, thanks Nikpro for the excellent help so far - you are a true altruist and a star!
The outbound port on the xdaII is port 5 by default
On XDAII go to Settings - System tab - Bluetooth settings and make sure you check the tick box for outbound COM port.
There is also a chance you have deleted your serial port profile so tap on the bluetooth icon in the Today Screen and go to bonded devices. Select the CK3300 and delete partnership (do not delete pairing from car kit end!)
Then search for new devices from the XDAII and the CK3300 will again come up; create a new partenship and everything should be good.
Still having problems
Oddly, I still cannot use the GPS on the CK3300.
I am using my old TomTom at the moment for GPS and the CK3300 for headset - which works fine, but I wanted the CK3300 to do both.
When I try and reset the GPS to the (series of numbers ending in 9600) as stated in the info and the instructions (Nikpro, take note - I have read them - but your comment made me laugh), the TomTom just 'freezes'. Wait - and wait - and wait - and when it reincarnates itself, no GPS at all.
I am using the 1.72.00WWE rom and radio 1.17.00
I think that I have tried every permutation for the COM port.
Has anyone any ideas? Please?
When you initially pair your XDA to the car kit do you get a message about serial connection show on the screen? The problem must be with the tom tom software as with copilot and mapopolis it works fine? or the way you are pairing the two!
What software version is the car kit? PLEASE DESCRIBE HOW YOU ARE PAIRING THE DEVICES??
Hi all, 1st post and all that.
Have you tried falshing the parrot with the newest rom, mine picked up enough to make and recieve call, but i flashed my xdaII with 2.02.T1WWE this morning and it works even better.
Hope you get a result

Use Bluetooth tools www.bluetooth.jazztel.es
and edit the registry under hkey local machine, builtin, BTIBserial, rename BTIBserial.dll into BTIOBserial.dll
and go Start, Settings, System, Bluetooth settings and check both inbound and outbound.
Delete ALL paired devices, reboot, and re pair them.
You will now have an option for two serial ports, one for each device.
This is the only way to do it if you have two devices that need a serial port. If you have a third, you are SOL.
Normally, the stupid programmers who made the MS BT program, made it so it only had one dynamic port for BT. Some people would experience having to reboot before switching BT devices, most would have to re pair every dam time.
The new 2005 does not have this problem but it has other bugs.
They smart people at MS changed the databases so Mapopolis and other third party programs can not read the contacts or have other bugs with them. Plus the 2005 version here limits your memory.
The 2.02 - 2.06 will NOT work with Hands Free and most car kits need it and if you have caller ID via BT, you are SOL too.
The 2.20 is a stable and a good OS and the Hands free works much better. The down side is, when I get a call on the call waiting, even if I did not answer, it would disconnect the BT headset and no sound through the phone too. I would have to, click on Tools, Hands Free off, tools Hands
Free on before it would work. I have lost many clients this way.
I decided to disable call waiting in the phone settings and it only has a few bugs now like I have to turn off and then back on the BT headset after ever call or it would revert to Headset mode.
The caller ID will not display if the call is in the history of my BT headset or if it is in my contacts database.
I mention my BT headset because it is like a car system when used in Hands free mode.
Good luck, let me know if you have any trouble now.
Parrot 3100 with XDA II
Hello,
I have just put in a Parrot 3100 and it works fine as a handsfree phone.
is there any way when I am not in the car though to use my Jabra 250v headset without rebonding and selecting it as the preferred headset device?
I can't seem to switch between the Parrot and the Jabra when the other one is not in use without repairing.
Thanks for any advice
BT
Try turning of one and turning on the other and soft reset..
Ok, I have just spent my entire weekend trying to get my Qtek 9090 to communicate to my newly installed Parrot CK3300 (with GPS). I have read the manual about 3 times from beginning to end, know the whole website parrot.biz by hard (ugly site BTW), and have tried about everything in configuring, but with no success so far.
Initially I had the 2 devices paired to each other, but after I installed Tom Tom 3, it is impossible for me to get them to pair again. Nevertheless, the 2 devices "see" each other (when asked in "Linked devices"), but they can not get to communicate. From all the stuff I have read on forums and sites, it seems that I need to upgrade my Bluetooth version, but I have no idea how and where to start this procedure.
Can anyone help me out here ?
Any tips are welcome !
I am using the HBH-DS980 bluetooth headset with my Nokia 6300 phone. I desperately need on the following questions,
1. After pairing and connecting, the contacts lists shows up as empty in the headset. How can I enable the bluetooth headset to read my phone's contacts?
2. When I receive a call the caller ID only shows the number of the caller and not his/her name as stored in the contacts. How can I fix this?
3. The auto-connect feature doesnt seem to work well. After connection, if I take my phone away from range for a while and then come back the re-connection does not happen automatically after any amount of time. I have set my phone to auto-connect with Bluetooth headset without confirmation. Still it does not work. How can I fix this.
Please help.
On this site people talk mostly about Windows Mobile phones made by HTC and AFAIK this is not the case with the Nokia 6300... (I could be wrong and this wouldn't be the first time).
I suggest you post your questions at Nokia Discussions or Esato.
I have just a new parrot 3200 LS color installed in my car.
Pairing with Diamond is no problem.
But the connection is not stable; every now and then the BT connection drops; sometimes the parrot seems to do a reboot.
My wife had a Nokia N70 with the same problems on my carkit.
firmware of the carkit: 2.11b (Dutch)
Diamond radio: 1.00.25.05
Any tips?
same problem
hi!
i have also a parrot car kit, not the same but the same problem. the bluetooth connection is very instabil and so sometimes it is hard to phone with them...
there are any solutions fpr these problems?
thank you all and sorry for my english.
I updated the radio in my Diamond to 1.00.25.08. But this does not solve the problem.
I was just wondering whether the number of my contacts (> 500) could be the cause of the problem.

it definitely does not depend on the number of contacs, as long as you cannot use your contact in any other way as calling them with you car kit ;-)
Regards
I wondered about the number of contacts, because it takes very long (> 20 minutes) to sync my DIamond contacts to the carkit.
All contacts are stored in the carkit; so I could imagine that somewhere a bufferflow in the carkit firmware could occur.
have you tried not to sync every contact, but let's say 20 and id you try it then?
Have you tried flashing your Parrot with the latest software update? I was having a problem with my CK3300 and that solved it. It is easy to do via BT on your laptop
According to Parrot's web site 2.11b is the latest firmware
I also have an 3200LS paired with the diaomd; but experience no problems at all.
I've tried lots of ROMS also; and each and everyone works well....

I also have a lot of problems with this combination, though it used to work fine. Don't what I did to mess it up, but I did...
Mouragio, could you post your BT settings?
Using the Advanced Configuration tool, my current settings are:
- Obex: Disabled
- Use Joint Stereo: No
- Bitpool: Default
- Maximum supported bitpool: 0
- Minimum supported bitpool: 0
- Sample rate: 48000 Hz
- Audio gateway service: Disabled
- Audio gateway power save: Enabled
I have maybe a partly solution to this problem.
I have more than 500 contacts in my DIamond which are synced with the parrot.
After you for the first time pair the phone with the parrot, it requests whether it is allowed to access the contacts on the phone. I answer 'yes' on the phone.
Now the syncing starts. This lasts very long (more than 20 minutes). When you interrupt this syncing by for instance switching of the ignition of your car (after which the parrot 'says' goodbye on his screen), the parrot seems to go mad.
You have to delete the paired phone on the parrot, pair again, and let the syncing of all contacts finish. After that I had no problems any more with my bluetooth connection between phone and parrot.

Been there, done that... Didn't work for me... Syncing still seems to last forever, but sometimes it syncs within a few seconds...
I also have another problem; the BT connection is dropped after each phonecall, incoming or outgoing. Sounds familiar to anybody?
Also with me the syncing process is still strange. After I've made or received a phone call, and this call is ended, the parrot starts syncing. SOmetimes more than 30 minutes.
But after I let finish the syncing the first time after I paired the phone and parrot, I have no problems anymore with dropping of the bluetooth connection between phone and parrot.
I want to test the following:
o delete pair
o create new pair
o disallow syncing of contacts
o create VCF file (via parrot_vcf_creator.zip application that can be downloaded from parrot website) that holds your outlook contact
o send that file to the parrot.
So you have the contacts in your parrot, but they will not be synced anymore. Maybe this can 'solve' the syncing problem.
Hey folks,
I have a couple of questions regarding the bluetooth hands free profile and Caller ID and Contacts.
First issue: I use a Garmin Nuvi 760 as a speakerphone in my car via the hands free bluetooth profile. The 760 can't access the recent calls on my HTC Polaris (Touch Cruise) running the official WM 6.1 ROM...it just says, "no data available" when I try to access it. My old phone (T-Mobile MDA / HTC Wizard with the official WM 5 ROM) worked fine. The Wizard happily sent my recent call data to the GPS. If I remember correctly, the Wizard would prompt me the first time the GPS tried to access the call data, and then it just worked after that until I deleted the bluetooth device pairing. When I receive a call the Wizard also sent the name from my contacts to the Caller ID display on the 760, and my Polaris doesn't...it just sends the phone number of the incoming call.
Second issue: at home I use a XLink BT bluetooth hub to use my "land line" phones with my Polaris. It also uses the hands free bluetooth profile to connect to the phone and then emulates a "land line" for my other phones via my home telephone wiring. When I receive a call through the XLink I also don't get the caller name along with the Caller ID data...it just sends the phone number. I also have my girlfriend's 4 year old Motorola Razr v3 connected to the XLink hub and the contact name data comes through to the cordless "land line" handset just fine on the Razr.
I'm pretty sure these issues are connected, and I'm also pretty sure that there must be a setting somewhere on my Polaris to allow this to work, but so far I haven't been able to find it. Do any of you guys know of a setting or registry key that will allow me to enable this functionality? I'd really appreciate some advice.
Thanks!
Enable SAP Settings?
Hi
I think that this may be an issue to do with "SAP" or Remote SIM Access in bluetooth settings.

Thank you for the reply. Unfortunately Remote SIM Access is already on...I swear I've tried every setting I could find to try to figure this out.
Yeah, something is definitely just turned off somewhere (probably in the registry). I can dial from my phonebook from my nuvi via the handsfree bluetooth profile with my old phone (Wizard), but when I connect with my Polaris the option to dial from the phonebook is disabled (grayed out). Something is explicitly disabled somewhere...I just need to figure out which registry keys I need to change.
I'm really surprised I'm having such a hard time finding this info on the 'net.
Hi all,
I am trying to use the factory bluetooth integration in my car, and from everything I've read, it requires SAP (or rSAP?) to work properly. I've never had trouble pairing to the bluetooth module, but the car still insists there is no phone.
After messing with it yesterday and installing SAPSettings, I can hear the speaker of the phone in the car's audio, but no microphone, and it still says "insert phone" in the car's phone menu as apposed to downloading the phone book and letting me dial on the screen.
The phone lists the SAP profile among many others, but if I go into the settings of the car's bluetooth connection, it only lets me choose "Hands Free", with an on/off checkbox. It seems like thats what it sensed was available from the car, and offers nothing else, but I'd like to force SAP instead.
Car: MB E-Class

Thanks!
I'm going to put the official windows mobile 6.1 on it to see if it makes a difference.
bluetooth is a long list of various profiles
problem is that devices only need to implement 1 or 2 to call themselves
bluetooth devices and no if the maker of the bluetooth stack in both ends
didn't implement a profile you can't force it
I have this problem trying to get my HD to connect to my landrover freelander 2 hse. I can get it to connect to the phone, but cant get the call to play thru cars speakers.
Dont bother with winmo 6.1 or official rom, just doesnt work at then (cant connect).
Only way i can get it to work is with winmo 6.5 (manila 2.5) (profiles must have newer or more stable settings). Only thing i have to do then is to make a call (normally voicemail) turn privacy on, then off again and voila it plays thru speakers.
Downside is i have to do this everytime i start the engine.........
Now that probably doesnt help you much but you will probably find from your car manufacturer that you device is not supported with you cars handsfree bluetooth kit.
the only one fully compatible with the freelander 2 is................. an phone
