been busy with work so this is actually my first free time to personalize my xda2. i'm almost done but what's puzzling me is the bluetooth configuration.
i followed the instructions for both the xda2 and jabra headset for bonding. no problems so far but what's puzzling me is how to use the headset now that they're bonded. i tried testing it by pressing on the headset once...but no 2 blips sounded. or by activating the media player, but still no luck.
what am i doing wrong or am i not doing something which i'm supposed to?
thanks for any help you can give
robson
headset profile is only for phone usage. u can't use it for anything else. i have hbh-65 and as long as headset is on and call comes in it goes to bluetooth and rings
alex
hey thanks! and all the while i thought i was doing something wrong. do i leave the bluetooth setting mode to "on"? and when a call comes in, the phone rings and i can hear it immediately through the bt headset? do i need to press any buttons on the headset to activate it or is it automatic (i can answer right away)?
i guess i got used to having the bluetooth adaptor plugged to my old xda that i'm still looking for those 2 blips whenever i depress the bt headset button.
cheers

answered my own question
hey kalex, please disregard my previous post; i guess i just answered my own inquiries about the blue tooth bonding thing by using my landline and calling my mobile. the bt works great between the phone and the headset; when the mobile rang it immediately sounded off in my headset; just needed to press the button once to activate it. thanks a bunch!
cheers mate
robson
hey kalex or whoever can help out; the bluetooth headset works well when the phone rings and i take the call. however; how do you use the bt headset when you want to make an outgoing call?
cheers
robson
man, you really need to read the manual.
As the manual states, the jabra headset supports voice dialing.... only by default the XDA-II does not. You'd need to look at the various voice dial packages and see about getting that to work with the headset.... I dont fancy your chances... on the other hand maybe someone has already done this?
sorry dude; like i said i was a little busy with work so you'll have to pardon my excitement of fooling around with the xda...not to mention skipping the part about the manual
cheers mate

I recently got an xda 2 and am buying a jabra 250. i presume that i'll need some voice software to make this totally hands free. or is this not the case.
any comments welcome :?:
I think the voice dial and headset issue is down to the headset BT profile that the XDA-II has plus the voice dial software supporting it.....
its muddy as hell, maybe someone else has a better idea. If I were you I'd find the voice dial software (there is plenty about) and then ask the authors for their recommendations.
voice software
Hello,
I can only say "me to" - I have HDW-2 Nokia headset but still looking for the voice software. I have tryied MS voice and I can say - forget the Microsoft voice - it is only dialing 7 or 10 digits numbers and trying to recognize the names - as most of my entries have non english names it does not work at all. I would rather have simple dialing digit-by-digit or nokia style recognition of the voice marks.

okay, we had both thursday and friday off as holidays here in thailand; which gave me enough time to finally read the manual cover to cover. and i still have a question; you guys will have to forgive me but i need to clarrify something.
when receiving a call the sound is automatically directed to the bt headset. i can either manually accept the call or use the "answer call after this number of rings" function. no problems there so far.
my question goes back to making a call using the bt headset without the aid of any voice dial apps. when you dial a number and send it; can the bt headset still be used? or is it purely for incoming calls? i read the manual (both for the xda2 and the bt headset) and it doesn't say anything about this.
you'll have to excuse my persistence as i really don't know the answer to this one. neither the manuals nor the devices show the answer. perhaps some friendly chaps from the site can help as well?
cheers

just try it! You have to use that little green button to make the call, but then the call is treansferred to the headset.

ah, after a little more research in the forum based from your response; i finally got the bonding issue nailed to the ground! what i did was delete the bond between the xda2 and the bt; i then rebonded them and now it's working properly. cheers!

I have a Jabra freespeak BT250 on order but from the threads it doesn't seem like its worth the hassle (problems maintaining the connection, lost calls etc) . Any recommendations for a BT headset that works flawlessly with XDA II. :?:
The problem in this case is not the headset
Even though its not perfect, don't despair.
Bluetooth is worth it - and I'm sure they'll get a patch out soon.
That is one reason everyone if beefing about it here - hoping O2 and T-Mobile are listening. :wink:
Yes, I bought a jabra 200 with my XDA-II.... ok so when ever the headset is turned off or most of the time when it is recharged you have to rebind the BT connection.... so what I say, I love it and cant be without it.
I'm using the Plantronics M3000 which works very well (no binding problems). The only functionality that doesn't work (and I guess the PPC doesn't implement it) is press the call button twice to redial the last number. Aside from this it picks up calls/ends calls perfectly, has 8 hours of talktime and only cost £45.
i use HBH 30 from Sony Ericsson no binding problemes, it works perfectly, just voice command is missing, may be next XDA generation ...
I have the Jabra BT 200 and I can get all the incoming calls to work fine but I cant get it to work with any outgoing calls. After i dial the number and it connects, I press the button on the headset but it wont transfer the call. I have the headset profile enabled in the today screen. Has anyone gotten both incoming and outgoing calls to work with the BT200?
I use the Sony Ericsson HBH-65, and this combination works like a dream!!!
Dang :-(
Bought a BT200 ready for the XDA II.
Oh well. Flawed wireless is better than wired anyday for me :lol:

Don't press the button on the headset when making the outgoing call. If you use the green button, it should show something like "headset in use - press here to select phone" in a popup (I have the German version, so I don't know the exact english text it shows).
You should then hear the voice over the headset.
If you press the button on the headset it basically terminates the call.

Maybe we can have it with the Handsfree Profile Patch :wink: ...
Ok....Thats strange....I was going to try what tbd had suggested but now it just works without touching anything!!! Now whenever I initiate a call it AUTOMATICALLY sends it to he headset without me touching the green button or the headset. It also transfers it very fast. I don't know why it didn't work yesterday but it does now.
Thanks for all the input - I think i'm going with the Sony Ericsson HBH-65
and hoping for the best. :?

GOOD choice!
I am using it now, and it is REALLY GREAT!
The speaker quality is the best , the mic quality is not very good in noisy / windy environment (same as almost all bluetooth headset), because it is not directly pointing to your mouth, but works perfectly in a quiet environment.
I love it very very much!
Just received my QTEK 2020 and Cellink BT Headset (BTHS6023) 9 grammes only.
Working perfectly I can answer to an incoming call by pressing the button on the headset.
When dialing a number automatically the headset goes on to be able to speak throw the headset without pressing a any button on the headset.
To hang on any call just press 2 seconds the headset button.and the line is cut.
GPRS with french orange is OK. I have not tested a VPN, but with my ancient IPAQ 3870+GPRS jackett I could manage to do it.

I have been using a Jabra BT 250 for a week now and it works flawless.
I don't know where the mentioned problems come from, but I cannot share them. Very comfortable, very good sound, 8 hrs. talktime and 200 hrs standby and the headset profile works fine with my MDA II.

I also have the Plantronics M3000, and guys I have to say something it’s better than my Jabra BT 200, the voice quality is really excellent. Concerning the bonding issue; well if I turn the M3000 off I have to create a new bonding all over (same case wt Jabra), so I am a little surprised how it works for you? :roll:
It would have been great if the redial feature would work :lol: , but as it seems it’s a problem with the Imate rather the headset.

Been using the SE HBH35 with my Imate and works just fine. Good reception and easy to bond
Been using the Jabra BT200 headset from my old XDA kit with no problems at all. Absolutely flawless performance. I was expecting to have to buy another headset. Have also tested the XDAII with the BT250 (no problems) & Motorola HS810 (no problems). Had problems with the Nokia HB-2 headset (binding issues wouldn't stay connected)
Has to be Jabra BT 250
the Jabra Freespeak 250 works perfectly.
NO PROBLEMS what so ever.
£79.99 from O2
expensive but perfect.
I have had no problems while using it. None.
Hands free profile would be good on the XDA2 tho as the 250 is compatible.

I bought the Jabra BT-800 headset for 119 EUR and was hoping to enjoy the headset w/o getting my PPC out of my pocketst.
Well that didnt work out. Pairing was easy, and after switching on the headset (in profile on today screen) I could call with it. The only thing is, I cannot get the call list on the headset to work. It doesnt show any numbers at all, and i wonder how its supposed to work anyway.
That being said, I also don't get to see who's calling me when using the headset.
1) Incoming call.... PPC rings..
2) After a few seconds the headset backlight switches on showing "Jabra BT-800" (standard text). I do not get to see who's calling me on my headset.
3) When listening to the ring tone on headset, after a second or two I get a really annoying sqreaking sound and that stays on till I accept the call or hang up.
So it is not working for me. Besides the headset does not stay on my ear correctly. I have small ears and it is really uncomfortable.
I have Qtek 2020 with Windows Mobile 2003 SE ROM (downloaded from this forum), ROM version 2.06.00WWE, Radio 1.18.00, Protocol 1337.38, ExtROM 2.06.100a
The Jabra BT-800 does not do what they say it's supposed to do.
Anyone else got these problems or solutions? Ciao
R.
me too
Same problem... They say it is also capable of BT voice dialing. I hate the way it takes so long to answer calls.
I am going to find out if the sony ericson ones work.. Then get that. The reception on the BT800 is great though.

Lucky you to get that far :evil:
After the upgrade to the Diamond 1.2 I have tried to bond my Bluespoon Digital. That was very easy and everything works fine, exept a call not is trasferred to the headset. I have tried both stacks, and I have tried it with the Sony Ericsson HBH 65. It simply doesn't work at all.
Does anybody have suggestions to what to do??
bluetooth headset not bonding
:lol:
Hi , I had smae problem with new I.Tech clip headset.
It's ok now as I downloaded the POcket Bluetotth Tools from this link:
http://bluetooth.i-networx.de/index_e.html
Now it's ok for incoming and outgoing calls...
Cheers..

Persnickety Bluetooth
Thanks for the link!
I had a problem with my Jabra BT250 after the WM upgrade. The mic and speaker remained active on the device, and the earpeice on my headset was active, but not the headset mic. The BT Tools did the trick.
Thanks
Jabra BT800 & XDA ii
Hi there,
The Jabra BT800 isnt compatable with the XDA ii (check www.jabra.com)
I owned this headset and had exactly the same problems, i now own the Jabra BT200 and it works perfectly
The BT800 needs a phone with bluetooth handsfree profile to be able to use the advanced features like caller id. Xda II as standard has only bluetooth headset profile.
I'm not sure about the 2003SE rom some of you guys are using, but I've tried it with the Buzz WM2K5 rom (thanks buzz et al) and this DOES give it the bluetooth handsfree profile it needs.
BUT...
It seems Jabra's idea of caller id is to only pass the number across, and not the name. So for those of us that don't have a photographic memory its pretty useless. This isn't restricted to Xda's either. I tried a couple of Nokia phones that are 'compatible' according to www.jabra.com and these do exactly the same. Number shows on the jabra screen but no name, even though the phone is showing both.
I emailed Jabra about it and they acknowledge it is an issue. They also tell me there is an issue with numbers in international format in that they fail to pass the + sign across, so you can't ring out from the call list.

Ya need 2.20 translated to have a working Hands Free profile.. BT800 needs hands free profile.
Caller ID still only displays if the number is a virgin to your system.. I think HBH662 will work with 2.20.
2005 may work with no problems too.
I had a problem with the handsfree headset delivered with the S200.
2 seems to be available in ebay, but with very long delivery time.
I also tried my son's HTC HD headset, but it doe not seem to work
Has anyone identified a suitable replacement that would support both the headset function and the push to talk handsfree functions ?
Thanks in advance
Hi,
I have a problem with my Acer S200 and my SonyEricsson HCB-300 bluetooth car kit. I want to start a call from the SE hcb-300 call button and use voice dial(Vito), but it doesnt work with the s200. What can i do? Help me, please.
#1 i know that this is a dead thread but just for the heck of it+

If you have phonex as replacement dailer then you have to disable "lock hardware buttons". Otherwise you can't accept a call when pressing on the headphone button.
I tried the following BT headsets SE HBH-PV715 and Nokia BH-105. And they both have the same sympton when lock hardware buttons is enabled in Phonex.
Hi all,
I have got the One S now for some weeks and I'm really satisfied. But I got one problem using my handset handsfree via bluetooth. I can take an incoming call via clicking the BT headset, but I can do anything via clicking it when the device is in standby. Though I can react, but not act. I have got the experience from my old HTC Desire when I click on the BT headset, that the voice search starts or I got the possibility to choose an application.
I already called the HTC support, but they were not very nice and said, that they can only support HTC accessoires. But I can not believe that I want to use accessoires from third party manufacturers.
So where is the problem? Is it a HTC problem? Is it related to Android 4.0 or is it related to a few amount of compatible BT headsets?
Already tested with Sennheiser EZX 60 and Jabra EasyGo.
Thanks in advance.
Ok, let's keep it simple. To all One S users with a Bluetooth headset:
What happens if you push the button on your BT headset?
