Bluetooth Issues

Hello all. I was wondering if anyone has had or knows of any fixes for this. My bluetooth on my Treo 750 doesn't work well with my bluetooth headsets. I've tried 2 headsets, the Plantronics Voyager 510 and Discovery 640. When I receive/make a call using the headset I can hear the called party really clearly, but they can't hear me clearly. I tested the headset with my Nokia N73 and it works fine there. I previously had the Universal and there were some bluetooth install files that sometimes helped depending on the ROM I had installed. Does anyone know how I can fix this for my Treo 750? Or if no one has had this issue, does this mean that my device is a little faulty? Please let me know. Thanks.

Try JetWare Mobile...it fixed many of my issues.

I've noticed the general Bluetooth performance for the Treo series Bluetooth is abysmal. BT stereo audio will skip with certain devices unless they are almost physically touching, headsets are always crackling, even a foot away.
The range is horrible, and the AVRCP often ignores commands from stereo headphones as well.
Overall, just, not very good Bluetooth :\ (Especially coming from many BlackBerries using BT 2.0 EDR with A2DP and all the trimmings.)

Bluetooth headset.

What bluetooth headsets will work with the touch diamond?

other question: why should there be any headsets not working?
i have a really cheap but nice looking samsung headset, no problem to get paired with the diamond. should work with any other headset, too!?

My existing is just a cheap iTouch bluetooth headset and it works perfectly.
I don't think Diamond has any problem to work with other brands.

I have an old Motorola Bluetooth headset (4 Years) and it will not pair with my Diamond. Looks like its time to upgrade to a Jawbone!! hehehe

i have the jabra bt3030
its a stereo bluetooth headset working on A2DP
works great and looks awesome!!

So can I listen to music through any bluetooth headset (that has headsets to play music)?

My Plantronics P590 works like a charm

Say something about the sound, it is better (or/and louder) then original HS or same quality?

Here you go!

Theres a app called btAudio (keep a google-eye open for newer versions) that does exactly this, it will send ALL sound to the headset, despite of what windows had in mind for the sound (as in if it was gonna use headset or build-in speaker)
Tho, it sometimes chokes when you dont shut down the app before you disable the bluetooth headset or phones bluetooth function, but i guess that kinda makes sense (its even sayd in the program to not do that, but im a sucker for trying such things hehe)
And another thing, this happend for me too (taken from comments on some site, linked below)
The program runs well however if you try to make a phone call with the blue tooth ear piece while the program is active the program is not available after the call is completed.
I had to reset my phone to enable the program again. - source of comment
Guess thats related to windows not being to happy theres multiple apps using the headset, lets hope for a next version which auto-disables when calling and re-enables when u hang up.

I'm waiting for this one (Jabra BT530, due end August according to Play.com)...
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/16778.htm
Got the manual that Jabra put up on their support site for a day or two before taking it off. Manual says it also supports A2DP and can stream music.

And what about battery life? Could somebody using bluetooth stereos write how long the Diamond can last, and what is the overall impact on battery life while listening to music?

I use this headset, its got very good sound and is also nice and comfortable, since i have my tragus peirced i cant wear "normal" headphones!
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-DRBT20...6?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1216998998&sr=8-6
It also works on my pc and my PS3 as a wireless headset/mic!

I have proper enclosed stereo headphones Dell DH-200 with volume control, next and previous track plus play/pause buttons and it all works fine with HTC DT. The only think I am not sure about is which profile it is using, the sound is not as good as when I have it paired with my laptop, which would suggest a low speed profile as opposed to HQ.

You can change the bluetooth profile in Schap's Advanced Config. I've set bitpool to 70, max to 76 and min to 64. Now the sound quality is waaay better.

I can't connect my Jabra 320's (worked with SE W880i) to BT Stereo, it only see's the headphones as a handsfree unit on the HTC

Jawbone. Nothing else comes close (for hands free anyway!). And the new one even matches the Diamond... sort of!

Has anyone suffered the sound periodically dropping out for a second or two, mainly during the first minutes of connection but still persisting now and again several tracks down the playlist?

Is there a way you connect 2 bluetooth headsets at once?

I was just wondering is there a way you connect 2 bluetooth headsets at once because while i was browsing i came across a program that allows you to listen to all sound that runs through your phone. Which since i gave up bluetooth headsets, i cant verify if it works. But if it does, instead of buying those (big) bluetooth stereo headset or those (wired) stereo bluetooth heaset, I can just use small wireless normal bluetooth headsets.

Honestly, buying a good pair of regular headsets to listen to music or other quailty sound on will cost you MUCH more than buying 1 normal A2DP supporting ones (unless you already have 2 headsets )

i thought this was goint to be a request to share music via 2 stereo BT headsets. Now that would be useful.

By default, you can't connect 2 headsets to your device at the same time.
sharing audio between 2 different headsets would be even harder than running 2 mono ones at the same time.
you're invited to develop this idea a bit further and suggest a development in the Dev&Hack section. hopefully, someone would go for it.

Hi, unfortunately i wouldn't know where to start with this and as i don't have a BT stereo head set, it's not something i would actually find a use for. Don't really use my Trinity for audio, it was easier to just get a large iPod, apologies for bad language , and use that.

i was actually refering to jeff
I wouldn't suggest this to someone who knows almost everything

If only that were true, i just spend far too much time on here.

hi
you can connect to 2 bt headsets but only to differentiate their settings. one would be in handsfree mode while the other in wireless headset mode. but sharing both settings (e.g. handsfree, thus sharing the audio) is not possible. the moment you bond the second bt headset, it severes the first one's connection.
hope that helps

I think he meant sending audio to both at the same time...

I can't believe there isn't any developement on this yet...

Problems with bluetooth interface for car audio

Hello, first of all please excuse my English, I am from Germany and I try to ask for some help here.
I bought this nice little toy named Topaz a few weeks ago. Yesterday I added a bluetooth interface from Blaupunkt for my car audio "Blaupunkt Milano MP34".
Its just an extension for the missing bt ability of the radio. For handsfree and A2DP profiles.
After connecting, it works great and with the external mike I can manage phone calls via car laoudspeakers.
A2DP also works, but here is the problem: there is no auto-connection of A2DP like the handfree-profile autoconnects the car unit and the Topaz after ignition.
Every time I have to connect it manually:
- after an ended phone call
- after starting the engine even when the interface is connected
This is very very annoying, inconvenient and tedious, after a phone call the manual connection while the car is running is even dangerous.
My question: Is there any software or a plugin to make an automatic connection for the A2DP profile when the ignition gets on??
Thank you very much in advance....
greetings from Cologne, Germany, yours Wolfgang

I have exactly the same issue, see my post here for improving the a2dp quality. I haven't managed to fix the re-connection issue but as a work around I have installed this app and have maped it to one of the hardware buttons. So now i just have to hold the button and the a2dp connection fires up!! Hope it works ok for you.
Would be interested to know if anyone else has had the a2dp re-connection issue and if they've fixed it. It only happens in the car as described by porzerwolle, my bluetooth headset re-connects every time!
G

thank you very much, for the tool and the information. It seems to be impossible to auto-reconnect the device with a BT radio or BT interface.
I'm using "A2DPSwitch" for a while and it works perfect. I set it on button1 "hold long" and I can switch between device and BT interface with a one-button-push now.
In matter of fact, my Plantronics BT headset 590E (it is very, very good!!) autoconnects Handsfree within seconds, and connects A2DP immediately when I push the play/pause button. In the Windows Media Player, the Blaupunkt interface supports AVCRP!! I can use NextTitle, TitleBefore, Play/pause, Fast Forward & Fast Rewind!!!
Sound quality of Plantronics is perfect, like wired unit, but quality of BT transmission between Blaupunkt and Diamond² is inacceaptable caused by extreme static noise - worse than an FM Transmitter.....
Wanted to use the S2P for this, but the sound quality via BT is poor and lousy....
In the moment, I use Pocket Player 3.6, not so comfortable as S2P, but it works..... there I have a ten-band EQ and the possibility to control Master Volume
I will try this registry settings, but when there is no improvement, I will decide to buy the BRODIT active car charger with a 3-in-1 adapter and manage the sound output via AUX-IN by the Blaupunkt radio input.

Let us know how you get on with the registry settings. I too have a Blaupunkt head unit, an OEM one mind, but noticed a huge difference after modifying the registry.
G

do you have a Blaupunkt "headset" or an interface for the car radio??
Never seen a headset manufactured by Blaupunkt.....
I will tell you if there is any improvement after changing the registry. Will do this on the next weekend bc I'm very busy in the moment.

I have this adaptor connected to my blaupunkt head unit in the car.

Just to inform that it works perfectly on my side with my Audi A4 B8 and the audi built in bluetooth system... lucky me
I haven't add any third party software on my D2

mmm, it doesn't connect to my BMW X3 built in bluetooth, my former device (Polaris - cruise) did it seamlessy
Any fix known to improve compatibility?
Thx

now I changed the registry settings for BT stacks as told in the thread. Before i installed HD tweak and changed the settings for BT audio, the value for SampleRate were preinstalled by HD Tweak for 48000! I erased the two values and the Plantronics seems to be louder and more brilliant....
will test the changes on Blaupunkt interface tomorrow because today my car is not available.....but I think the reason for the hiss may be the low BT input signal on BT in the radio.
will tell you if there is any improvement. Thanks a lot in advance!
Greetz from Cologne, Wolfgang

now there is a little improvement in audio bt quality, less hiss and noise, but still there is some. I can't understand but maybe the bt input signal is too low.
in the moment it is working so I'm a little satisfied with the changes.
Don't know exactly in the moment if to keep in in this state or to switch to aux-in input with hiding the necessary cables and wires inside the car's cockpit.....
maybe will check out several bt car radios at my dealer to know if there are some devices which are able to produce noise- and hissfree bt audio.

today I tried BT connection both for HF and A2DP on a colleague's car with a SONY radio MEX-BT2600.
The difference was amazing! I was impressed by a perfect, noisefree BT audio output, very very loud and a HF phone call in perfect quality.
I think I will decide for another car audio device. Meanwhile, I'm very disappointed by Blaupunkt BT quality.

Out of interest porzerwolle, did the A2DP streaming re-connect ok on the SONY?

no, it didn't, the same as in the Blaupunkt interface: no auto-reconnect.
The Diamond² reconnects A2DP after a softreset, both Blaupunkt and the Sony, but it is not the standard procedure I want to do every time I want a BT connection

A2DP stopped working

Hi,
Yesterday, I installed a new car stereo and after a lot of frustration installing it, I was happily surprised the A2DP worked by default, just paired my touch pro with my stereo, start playing in wmp and it comes through my stereo system. However during the day I started looking for another player to use (during my breaks of course ) and installed pocket music player bundle ( I don't know if it has anything to do with my problem, just trying to include as much info as I can ). In the evening I enabled bluetooth of my phone again, I think I also had the headphone logo, but when trying to play using pocket music player and wmp, it always just used the speaker of the phone and didn't seem to send anything through A2DP.
Any idea how this can be? Is there a setting somewhere to change what audio is used (A2DP/Speaker/ whatever...)?
TIA!

OK, this seems to have been quite stupid.
Haven't been in my car since, but same behaviour with my logitech a2dp bluetooth headset.
Going into bluetooth settings, "right click" on logi_stereoV01 and "instellen als draadloos stereo" (set-up as wireless stereo) did the trick, probably the same for my CAR--BT,sorry for the stupid post.
Although it would be nice if the touch pro would automatically set the detected bluetooth device as wireless stereo every time, just as it seems to do for setting it headset when in range while turning on the bluetooth.
Sorry for the strange sentences... it was a long day

same problem
i just bought a bluetooth receiver for the car.
it fits in the lighter place and transmits via FM to the car radio.
My htc connected staight away (no code required to me) with the new "car Kit" found, but whatever i try i always have the sound from the htc speaker...
How can i solve this?
Thanx in advace.
