Bluetooth HF disconnecting during a call, although BT stays on

Please help! I tried to search for an answer to my problem, but while it seems there have been issues aplenty with WM and BT, I couldn't find a similar case.
So, how it goes: I have my Sony Ericsson HBH-DS980 Bluetooth stereo headset connected to my TP, when I receive a call. I pick up the call with the headset, and everything goes smoothly for a couple of minutes, but then suddenly I can't hear anything from the earplugs. I check the phone, and it shows that BT is on, but doesn't have the icon indicating that a headset is connected. I check my headset, and it's powered up. The call has been transferred to the phone. I restart my headset, and the TP discovers the headset, after which I can redirect the call to the headset. After a few minutes it all happens again!
It's extremely frustrating! Can anyone help, please?
I'm using standard 1.90.401.1 WWE ROM.

BT not staying connected when a call comes in?

I noticed recently that I can make a phone call out using my BT headset and MSVC and when it connects, the BT drops the call and my phone becomes the reciever. Annoying when I'm waiting for the call to connect, and the person is already there on the line going "hello?hello?"
I also noticed that when I get a call, sometimes the same thing happens. My phone rings, when I press my headset to answer sometimes, it goes straight to phone.
Sounds like the BT is loosing connection...

Same here. I hear nothing on BT and I bring the phone up to my ear and the person is going "Hello?" "Hellloooo???" It is kind of annoying. I am using a Jabra BT8010 headset.

Touch Pro disconnects handsfree connection

I have paired my Sony Ericsson HBH-GV435a bluetooth handsfree to my new Touch Pro. Every time I make a call or respond to a call and hang up the BT connection hangs too and the handsfree disappears from the phone. If I power off and re-power on the BT handsfree the connection reestablishes until the next call comes in and I hang up where the BT connection hangs/disconnects again. My other BT (Jabra 250) works fine with no disconnections. Touch Pro BT settings and Sony BT settings are the default ones.
Any suggestions how to keep the Sony - HTC BT connection alive? Any tweaks?

Not sure if I understand 100% what you mean.
I noticed it with WinMo 6.1, the ROM I'm using right now(see sig) and other Raph ROMs that the BT device icon is OFF but BT itself is on. That's valid for 100% of the cases, the device icon and thus true communication to this device seems the be activated only on demand/when used and it takes less than a sec to do so (IMO great to conserve some battery power).
Let me describe (BT paired to know device):
BT headset on
BT at phone on (BT symbol on top/no headset symbol)
Open dialer, no headset symbol
Dial and a sec later headset symbol appears in dialer
Hang up (BT symbol on screen goes quickly off/on, headset symbol disappears).
The same with the - though nagging - incoming call delay:
Softkey lights blink
Incoming dialer screen pops up without headset symbol
Headset symbol appears and starts to peep ...

Thank you my friend! You solved a big mystery for me...I tested it and you are right, once a call comes in again the SE BT device gets automatically reactivated after a small lag and reconnects with no problems. I was losing the handsfree icon in the dialer and I was getting a "lost BT phone" tone in my handsfree and was misled to believe that the connection is lost. The connection indeed drops but reconnects on demand on next call. Great help! (was about to toss the handsfree to garbage!)

Bluetooth Headset Answer

Hi Gang,
I really like my new phone, but one small problem keeps bugging me
With my HTC Touch Pro, when it was connected to my car bluetooth handsfree, even if connected, I was able to be in my house getting a call on my phone and answer and talk and being hear from the person at the other end. So the phone was taking priority even if it was connected to my bluetooth headset.
Now with my new Omnia 2, the headset in the car always gets the connection if close to the car.
Any solution?
Thanks,
Eric

Permanent connection to a bluetooth headset

Hi all,
I have HP iPAQ 514 with TomTom 7 installed on it, my goal is to hear all the TT's voice instructions through my bluetooth headset.
I've experimented with several settings as my headset is A2DP enabled, the result is that my phone is not fast enough to run TomTom and encode A2DP at the same time, so in the bluetooth settings of the phone I've unchecked Wireless Stereo and left only Hands Free checked for my headset.
Through standard hands-free profile it works, but with lags, i.e. I hear about 1-2 seconds sound from the phone speaker, then it's switched to my headset. Sometimes, if an instruction is too short, it switches even after playing it, so I don't hear anything. After a few seconds of inactivity, it switches back to "standby" mode.
I've found out I need to keep the connection between phone and headset "alive" to get rid of those lags - e.g. by playing music in the background, then there are no lags as the connection is active. But playing some sound (even playing "silence" just to force permanent connection) means extra load for the processor and the memory, and is very unpleasant. Is there any other way to keep my phone permanently connected with my bluetooth headset, not in just lag causing "on-demand" mode?
Thanks a lot.
