Hi,
I am using my HTC Touch Pro with an Opel Vectra built-in bluetooth carkit.
All functions, like browsing the address book and call registers, are working fine. However, at random times, my carkit reports no phone. When I then check my Touch Pro's bluetooth status, I see that it is has been disabled.
After manually re-enabling it, I can pair with my carkit for as long as it takes for bluetooth to turn itselves off again.
I've already tested with JETware, but that does not change anything. Also tried the universal broadcom bluetooth stack, but doesn't seem to work on the Touch Pro. HTC only comes with a standard answer that they don't support all carkits and headsets... Since the BT stack on the phone seems to crash, I don't think it's a carkit issue.
Anyone here with the same issue? And maybe a solution?
Thanks and regards!!
Start -> Settings -> Connections -> Bluetooth -> Timeout (tab). Turn off Visible mode set to "Never".
I think this must be your problem.
Hi Freco,
Thanks for your reply! This option is set. However it's not really the visibility that turns to invisible, but the whole bluetooth stack is being turned off completely. Need to fully re-enable it via Comm Manager.
Any other options? Does anyone know if there is a working broadcomm stack for the Touch Pro?
Regards!
Hi,
I have exactly the same problem with a Vauxhall kit, I have tried all sorts of things, but nothing seems to work
try:
start -> settings -> connections -> bluetooth
timeout tab
select 'never' from drop down box
Hi Brendo,
Unfortunately this doesn't solve the issue. Once paired, the connection even works without being visible. It's also not a fixed period of time before the disconnect takes place (can be within a minute, sometimes after half an hour). However, the whole bluetooth icons disappears from the top icon bar and comm manager shows it's turned off completely.
Hope somebody has any other ideas, because the only thing HTC can do is point to the carkit vendor :-(. Since all functionality is there when connected and the phone is turning off BT in some way, I really don't think this is caused by the carkit vendor. I should at least expect BT to stay enabled on the phone.
Thanks!
Yes, same here, BTW I have tried this in my Friends Saab, and the same problem.
same problem here with a Opel DVD90 buildin bluetooth carkit.
With other htc phones it always worked like a charm, but my mda vario IV continuously disconnects after a random time period and shuts down the complete stack.
Try this!
I have the same problem with my opel with original bluetooth-kit (2007). On the touch pro I changed the band and network from auto to GSM, as G3 reseption in this area is quit poor, especialy while driving. It helped for me, at least the last few days. I agree this has been an annoying problem.
I have tried to switch to "GSM only mode" in the past, but as far as I remember it does not completely solve the issue. However, I will give it another shot! Actually I can't figure out at what point it occurs... It can happen within a minute or after half an hour without using any funtion.
Does one of you know if there is a way to do some debugging on the Bluetooth stack?
And has anyone experience with other Windows Mobile 6.1 based phones in this combination (just curious if it's a WM issue or HTC only)?
Furthermore I did some tests with JetWare. You should be able to limit the number of synchronised items then (might be related to this issue). However, it looks like this configured limit is being totally ignored: when I limit my recent call list to 5 with JetWare, it still syncs about 25 items. Anyone tested with Jetware?
I have tried the GSM only mode, this didn't help either
I have now given up and got myself a Nokia E66, which works perfectly.
All contacts are pushed to car, no disconnects and AD2P works so my mp3 ringtones play through the car speakers! Sweet
Word of note, I had issues with N-Series phones, would connect ok, but contacts would not push.
I have the samen problem with my HTC Touch Pro and Saab.
bluetooth pairs just fine with my pioneer bluetooth enabled deck, but the problem iwth mine is once i receive a call sometimes no sound comes from the car, instead the earpiece is still on. but if i initiate the call first sound works just fine and earpiece on the phone is disabled, BUT once the call is ended bluetooth disconnects randomly and the phone takes a good 1-2min to reconnect. i absolutely hate the bluetooth on this phone!

I am having the same problems you describe. Anyone got an suggestions???
I encountered the same problem; first with an opel udp carkit and next with the bluetooth interface software from homeseer.
It has something to do with phone signal loss.
With the opel carkit I noticed bluetooth automatically turns off when the phonesignal switched from 3g to gsm.
I also noticed that in my home, BT turns off whenever I have been in a room with no phone-signal reception.
try this thread, both registry change and attached cab file, reset. DOn't worry if the make visible to all option is unchecked.

I tried many ROM on my HTC Touch Cruise, same problem, if I connect it to my car kit (Fiat Blue&Me, but ther's a post with the same problem between Opel 70 radio and Diamond) it connects, if I install Jetware it syncs phonebook & call logs (without jetware it don't sync), and after few minutes, the connection between car kit and the phone lost.
Now I find 3lit3 VI ROM, with it (and of course Jetware) everything works fine, no disconnection, it always sync data after connect - but very bad battery time . Yesterday I get my phone out of my pocket when I was on my way - I saw S2U2 screen with backlight ON . After the time I set up for turn off on battery, the screen turns off, but it turns on again immediately - so that's why my battery time is so bad...
Is there a solution to let the phone go to standby but keep the connection on bluetooth? Or I have to choose between working bluetooth with bad battery time or not working bt with good battery time?
...
..of course the phone can go to standby mode IF it isn't connected to the car kit. The problem returns when phone connects to the car kit.
I did a search and saw there are a lot of issues surrounding bluetooth. Particularly with the Omnia 7.
Mine was working flawlessly, however since updating to Mango not only have I had data connection issues but now I'm getting weird Bluetooth problems.
Baiscally when my phone first boots up it will connect to my hands free. If bluetooth is turned off and on it will no longer connect or discover any devices.
A soft-reset cures this.
Interestingly though if i turn WiFi ON then bluetooth again works properly. Has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks,
i am seeing something similar issue post mango on omnia 7.
bluetooth switched on connect to handsfree, it stay connected for 20 mins and then con drops, switch it back on it stays connected for 15 mins and how it goes until connected time is about 2 mins.
soft rest/restart get me back 20 mins connection time.
any ideas?
It this meant to happen or is it common to all phones, but i switched on my headset the other day and somehow the bluetooth on my phone automatically turned on!? How does that work lol :S
It shouldn't happen imho. Could Bluetooth on phone have already switched ON but got connected to handsfree as soon as handsfree became online?

I've actually had zero issues with Bluetooth since I got the official Mango... Could it be a Samsung issue?
I'm having an issue with my Bluetooth and am wondering if anyone else is having the same issue. For some reason, when I have my car connected via Bluetooth for audio/calls and I connect to GPS (using Garmin or VZ navigator, for example), the Bluetooth fully disconnects. I can have the car reconnect just fine, but if I leave the navigation open, the Bluetooth will disconnect again almost immediately. I know this isn't an issue with my car, as I've had other phones that don't have the issue.
At this point I'm not sure if it's a hardware or software issue. I have the Verizon 8x. Is anyone else having this problem?
I am connecting to a bluetooth logitech adapter which I had done successfully before (including 30 min prior). All of sudden, if I try to connect, it will turn off and then wifi doesn't work at all, so I have to manually turn off the bluetooth and vice versa to get it back. One time, I took out the battery because that didn't work.
This didn't happen with another bluetooth connection (a pair of headphones -they work fine). Any ideas? I am going to try repairing it later when I have time
