[Q] Blueant Q2 and WP7

I'm not sure where to place this so please feel free to move this thread.
does anyone know if the Blueant Q2 bluetooth headset is compatible with Windows Phone 7 devices re downloading of the contacts to the headset for caller name announce? I'm planning to get one, would want to try but i cant find any store where I can try it out. I've also been tweeting @myblueant, asking about this for some time but they won't reply.

Yes, fully compatible, I use it daily... Definitely the best headset I've ever used. This also shows that bluetooth is capable of transferring the contact information and data, it just isn't enabled anywhere on the phone yet... But the Q2 takes care of it automagically.

Cool, thank you so much! Ordering one now. Thanks again!

Just make sure your contact list is how you want it before you pair, meaning if you like it Last Name, First Name, or First, Last because thats how it will transfer to the headset. There is always the update option, but its better just to have it done the first time perfectly. It'll take about a minute to transfer, maybe a little more.

ok i'll remember that one. thanks again!

Successfully transferred 1990 contacts from my Samsung Omnia 7 to BlueAnt ST3! (Just need another 10 friends to round it off!)
Took me two attempts, though. First time BlueAnt said phone wasn't compatible with the contact transfer feature.
I deleted the BlueAnt ST3 device from the phone (press and hold on device name on phone to pop-up delete menu) and it worked fine the second time.
Note that the phone said device was "disconnected" during the transfer process, but all seemed to work OK.

What does the error say? It seems like this information might help...

its says "Were having trouble creating this smart dj mix. in settings, make sure the connect with zune option is turned on, and connect your phone to your pc" i have done both of these.

Going back to the old ZuneHD
Make sure you have enough music on your phone and that you've listen to enought music. Thats was the fix with the Zune HD should work on Windows Phone

There are two different error messages, one is his "Cannot create this Smart DJ..." and the other one says "We don't have enough music to create this smart DJ playlist..."
I assume since he is getting the first, more generic message something else is wrong, and its not due to not having enough music, otherwise I assume it would have given him the 2nd error message.
Unfortunately I have not been able to replicate the first error message so I don't know what's wrong. The Zune HD was picky when it came to what songs it would work for, and I don't know if the case is the same for Windows Phone. You may to try these things if you haven't already:
1) Try a bunch of different songs/artists. Does it happen to all of them? And when you get the error, is it always the same one?
2) Try a popular, more recognized artist. You may also want to try playing an artist to see if any of the background images change to reflect that artist. If it does not, its a sign that Zune does not properly recognize the track or that your tags are wrong/incomplete. This is the top cause of Smart DJ and of background images not working as they should.
3) If you don't have a Zune Pass, then Zune will not grab content from the Marketplace even if you have the option to do so on.
4) In order for Smart DJ to work properly, you need multiple tracks from the same artist/album so that Zune can properly probe those tracks for information to pull similar artists/tracks.
5) Your region may be affecting what you can or cannot use on your phone. Certain features are restricted by region (Local Scout, Smart DJ, Podcasts, etc.). So if you aren't in a region that is supported by the feature, it won't work. Normally with Windows Phone, I've noticed that the feature doesn't appear at all if it isn't supported, so technically, I would assume that if you are in a region that doesn't support Smart DJ, you should not be seeing the ability to use Smart DJ. But then again, this is beta, and mistakes happen.
6) It's beta. It's not working properly for you. You may have to start from scratch, resync your phone, or some other drastic measures. It's not guaranteed to work, and frankly, I'm surprised my phone works as wonderfully as it should.
That's all I can think of thus far.

Great Post anyway to give you props for that?

thank you, it started working yesterday for some reason. maybe it took time to connect to zune services or something

[Q] Bluetooth and Contacts

Hi All
Just traded in my HD2 for a Sensation. Nice!
The only problem I'm having is with the device and my car.
Before, the HD2 paired nicely and read the contacts no problem. Now, I have the Sensation paired no problem and I can make calls, but it says the address book says it's empty (when I look on the dashboard screen). Before, when I had the HD2, the address book would show up. I think the car is looking in the wrong place. Currently, all my contacts are on the phone rather than the sim.
Any thoughts?
PS Is there any way to rename the paired bluetooth device on the Sensation?
After pairing, it says 'UHP5406' and I'd like it to say 'Insignia'
Thanks
Steve

I like you had an HD2 before getting a Sensation, this paired in both WM6 & Android to my car (Audi with RNS-E unit), My sensation pairs with my Audi no problem and I can see the address book in my dash etc.
The first time it connects the phone asks you if you want to allow the bluetooth device access to your phone book...Are you sure you didn't accidentally click NO???
Try unpairing the device then pairing again, wait for a while after it pairs then you should get the message on the phone...
Good luck!

Bluetooth + Sensation
Ahh good point. I unpaired them and tried again and this time the 'permission box' popped up (don't recall that first time round). I clicked on 'yes', but when I looked at the Phonebook on the CAR, it said 'empty'. I wonder if I need to give it longer to copy them across???? I have around 2000 contacts. Do you know long it took yours to complete the process?
Thanks
Steve

Contacts and Bluetooth - sorted!
I've solved it and I'm posting the solution, so others may avoid the problems I encountered
All that was needed was Tea!!
I re-paired the phone with the car and left it do its thing. 5 minutes later, still nothing in the car's phonebook. 10 minutes later...still nothing. Went indoors and had a cuppa. Came back out 10 minutes later and the phonebook had transferred perfectly.
Anyone one give me a quick link to 'patience' as a quality...I dont seem to have any!
Steve

I had a Touch Pro 2 which paired perfectly with Audi RNS-E including phone book. I now have a Sensation (same SIM) which initially also worked perfectly. I then had cause to do a hard reset and ever since I can pair OK but it will not download phone book. I am getting phone book access request and allowing always.
Anyone any ideas?

Sweet Jesus....2000 contacts. You man are out of control.
lol

Finally got it to work. I deleted the call log, and the phone book downloaded without problem.
I have also had the unresponsive screen issue on my Sensation, and had taken the battery out for a few hours, and also took the phone out of its leather case, but I think it was the call log deletion which solved the problem.
Hope this helps others.

Htc Evo 4G Lte sound notifications

Hi Everyone,
I was wondering if anyone else has this issue :
When I want to change the default notification sounds ...I select what I want ...apply it but it won't change it... it selects but it still uses the original sound... I am using the stock e-mail client and using the manual settings for POP mail !
While I'm at it ...when I try to connect the phone to my home computer to mount it as a disk drive it keeps coming up with error messages I have the new version of HTC Sync downloaded....the funny part is I can connect my old EVO phone to my computer and no problems and all my other USB devices work but the 4G won't ....when I connect the 4G to my laptop it works fine and I can mount it as a disk drive... any ideas on this would be appreciated !!!!
Thanks in advance,
Gary

Same problem witn notification sounds on Evo LTE
Having the same issues with changing the notification sounds for text messages. It keeps playing the original sound. Also, cannot connect to my computer. Says a message about invalid drivers even tough i tried searching for new ones. Any ideas?

figured it out!
Found out how to change it. Go to settings. Then select, "Personalize". There you can change the sound. Seems a strange place to put it, but it works!

[Q]PLEASE HELP ME(Cpu, android, apple) reward is possible. TRIED VERYTHING.. :(

Hello, I am seeking advice/help...
I can see by looking and reading some of your writings and posts that yours and others time is worth alot... I am not sure on how much I could spend as I have already lost funds and had my bank accounts hacked. However I will gladly see what I can do if someone can hopfully help me...
I have been without proper internet for well over a month now.. I have changed my wireless routers out twice even added in a AP(hardware firewall)... My internet provider also suppliea optik TV and that is all ran through the same router.
At first I noticed some new programs would appear, things would be moved around some things would go missing... it was very unnoticeable unless you were paying attention.
Then the windows start up acreen would freeze for 5 minutes sometimes almost as if somethinf had froze the screen so that I wouldn't be able to see whats happening(Basically started getting worse - passwords being changed on me etc... - would lose my elevated privledges almost as if I was just a guest account)...
I even tried using CMD in dos to get my permission settings back and at first this would work but then the dos/cmd commands(whoami / ICACLS / and a few other commands would not work and say they don't exist... I also started to notice the size of my harddrive change.. I was never able to get it back to the right amount of GB. I tried to restore it many different methods as well (win7, linux, dos) nothing worked.. I then also noticed the MBR would constantly become corrupt and same with the hard drive.
So I looked into things and figured it must be the bios or cmos.. I tried to flash it and just decided I would start from scratch... However, everytime the computer restarts the old cmos/bios is back. I then also found things saved on (A: , B: and X) ... They were all write protected so I decided to pull the hard drive out. They still showed up even if I had the hard drive removed.
** X: is the boot drive as well so every time I tried to reinstall anything a bunch of extra files would get installed as well**
**Drive B had a volume named RamDrive..**
I ran some system/ tests in dos on the memory and kept getting errors but would not tell me what the problem was I finally figured out that it was a system error because the range went higher(above the 4gb that it's supposed to be)..
Now 4 laptops ruined... I just got a new laptop (win8.1) was never used and had never been turned on and after the initial startup/setup had extra software etc and now is stuck in infiniti boot loop....
Also similar stuff has happend or is happening with fax/printer, pvr, tv, ipad, iPhone, Android, wii, ps3, ps4.. dvd player, basically all media devices and anything wireless..
I have seen lots of evidence on remote connections through IOT, P2P/PHP, IPv4, IPv6, ssl, http(local group/work group) now it seems like things are communicating through a technique called air hopping or coupling. (RF, NFC, WIFI, IR, GPS/GSM, RFID, Altel Bluetooth and a few others). **I can remove the wireless card and laptops still connect**
They even got into a desktop computer that has no wirelsss or bluetooth card... and never gets plugged into the internet. Odd internet type numbers started calling my house phone also my house phone if I unplugged it etc... then powered it back up and didn't set date or time it would reset itself... The play stations would turn on and off them self... I tried reformattibg and missing a huge amount of GB.
Also, money was taken out of bank account as well.... anyone who goes to where this all is happening there cell phones get infected tooo... it seems to update tbe phones in fhe form of a push update aka broadcast signal.. Any help or input would be greatly appreciated...
another thing i noticed was files like index.dat/index.ini... desktop.ini. doubles of everything in my registry... and the fonts i couldnt change or delete... i noticed files from other devices listed on my phones and vice versa for things listed on the computer... if this isnt the right place for this i apolohgize...
also it appears as if my phone is rooted.. judging by the files and folders that are on my phone but it says not rooted. there is apps installed that i didnt put there and cant remove without being rooted.. my phones are constantly connected. factory reset doesnt work anymore... Neither does wipe cache. also constantly streaming data even if data is off and airplane mode. i keep seeng something about a 299-amtel.. redirect in any and all browsers...lots of adware as well.
im not even sure i will be able to ge back on here... if not you can try emailing me [email protected]... i appreciate any and all help.. thank you and sorry for the grammer juat trying to type this as fast as possible.

Your MEANINGLESS title is discouraging people from helping you.
Please at least use a simple sentence to summarize your problem in your title.
Anyway from what you're saying, you should report to the police, or if you have some friend with network and PC knowledge, ask him for help.
