I searched and found this topic covered like 2 yrs ago but no one responded with an answer on that one so I'm going to try again.
I have a Verizon XV6800 (HTC Titan, Spring Mogul) and I'm working on connecting it to a PC that I will install into my car as a CarPC. Software is limited out there that work well with a PPC phone and is easily integrated into the front end im using on the PC. Bc of this I made a skin for the frontend that controls the phone using MyMobiler and I want the audio to come over the BT. I set it up using a Belkin BT Dongle and configured the Voice Gateway feature. It works good if I want to make a call, but when I receive a call it auto answers almost immediately. (less than 1 ring) I checked all the setting and auto answer is turned off all that.
The issue seems to me is that the PC and Phone don't make a connection until a call is started. So when I get an incoming call it then connects and I guess assumes im putting on a BT headset therefore I want to answer the phone... I need it to not auto answer... If i have the music on in the car i dont even hear it ring and before i know it someone is listening in on me in the car on the other end of the phone and i dont even realize it....
Any ideas on how to make it not auto answer? Maybe something in the registry? Or how to make it stay connected to the computer when im in range like it would if I had my headset on?
Thanks for any help!

Looking at getting a new Head Unit that is able to do hands free calls and streaming from the HTC Desire, but also connect up an Ipod discretely (ideally through a rear usb port). I would much rather it had a wired remote microphone rather than one in the head unit itself.
So, what have found to work with the Desire. Any info greatly appreciated.
I am currently looking at the following units if anyone has one:
Kenwood KDC-BT60U
Pioneer DEH-P7100BT
Pioneer DEH-600BT
Sony MEX-BT5700U
JVC KD-R901
I use a Parrot Kit with my original headunit and it works great with the desire. I've got the Parrot MKi9100 which as well as bluetooth for calls supports bluetooth audio streaming, 3.5mm input, usb input (can connect phone, choose usb drive and play music from the phone) and also an iPod input too
I have bought the JVC KD-R901 and am pleased with it.
Pairing and streaming works seamlessly. You don't get track names but that is the phone's fault, not the HU as it doesn't support it. I mainly listen to audiobooks or podcasts anyway so its not much of an issue.
Getting the phone book across was a bit more of a pain though. It would not do the auto sync so I had to do the following.
Using GMail contacts on the PC I selected all and exported as a VCF file. This created a single file onto the computer. I transferred this via dropbox to the root of the SD card on the phone.
Next I installed BlueX (Bluetooth file share) app onto the phone. I put the JVC Stereo into manual phonepook transfer mode and then initiated the transfer.
On the phone I ran BlueX and selected the VCF file with a long press and selected send via bluetooth. The next screen showed the stereo as JVC Unit (unclassified) and once selected the phonebook transferred in a matter of seconds.
I can now seen the listing in the phone. The only downside is new entries will need to be done manually, but given the whole phonebook can be exported and uploaded in about 5 minutes I am not too worried about that.
Hopefully this may be of use to others.
I have the Alpine CDE-103BT.
The phonebook synced correctly and calls can be made and received fine (both when I had the stock UK T-Mobile ROM and now with the Modaco Froyo ROM). Only thing that still won't work properly is voice dialling.
It has a wired mic, and iPod support is through a cable on the back of the unit. It also has front USB and line-in sockets, though I've never used them for music as I always have my iPod with me.
Hope this helps!
Cheers,
Bryan.
If you are on a budget like I was and don't mind something that works well but doesn't offer much for features, the Sony BT2800 isn't a bad purchase. I got it at some electronics website for $135 with free shipping, mounting kit and wire harness. Phone calls sound good, the caller can hear me well, music streamed sounds good and it's easy to setup/use. Display doesn't show caller ID (at least not on my TP2 and Desire), and no phonebook support. Also, the desire does not support voice activation through it (my tp2 it worked great) so not having phone book support is inconvenient but this is the Desires fault, not the radios. Overall, it does what I need it to and it was not expensive. A good bluetooth headset sells for about the same at retail.
Pioneer DEH-600BT
I do car audio installs on the side of my actual job and most of the peoples are I install stuff, are happy that I told them to go with Pioneer, because of the sound quality and functionality for price. iv had people install Sony and other brands and pioneer is unmatched right below them to me is Alpine but personally i think the products are over priced
if you have any other questions feel free to PM me
I'm very happy with my Parrot MKi9100 as well.
Jvc is a pile of %%#% my avx44 which cost £400 broke just a month out of warranty and they refused to fix it.
pioneer definately. i use one with my desire via bluetooth for calls and music and has ipod wired up to glove box. downloads phonebook from phone and show ipod music the same way it is set up on ipod

Which unit did you get?
I've got a Kenwood BT-60U and it works quite nicely now.
Adressbook sync works, although there some strange entries in the HU and you can not choose a letter to begin you search with (well, you can but it always starts at A).
With 2.1 (or a Sense rom - I'm not sure if 2.2 or a AOSP rom made the difference) I always had connection losses.
I use it only to have a hands free car kit and for that purpose it works well enough - the sound quality is okay and its nicely integrated with e.g. USB playback (basically I can charge my Desire & listen to music from SD while having BT handsfree on )
Parrot Mki9000 here, its a deadly combination with upgradable software - unlike HUs.
Plus a wireless remote which I can mount anywhere and remove for security.

mine was the older deh 500bt unit. also has 3 separate outputs so upgrading speaker equipment is a doddle.
On a budget?
Wharfedale ICS182
£49.99 from Argos, I got mine for £32 of ebay!
Bluetooth hands free, USB, SD Card, CD Player, its great and works brilliantly with the Desire, sound quality is great and better than the JVC unit I took out. Hands free works great and no one has a problem hearing me even if I talk low.
Just checked mine agin and realised i gave you the wrong model number mine is the pioneer deh p800bt. excellent bit of kit.
I have a Pioneer DEH-P75BT, but can not get it to connect my Desire automatically, can anyone help?

if you used to have another phone connected disconnect it and clear the phone book memory. then go through the reconnection process. after this ensure that automatic connection is turned on on the head unit. turn car off and blutetooth on the phone on. then turn the car back on with the stereo. leave for a few seconds and the switch to the phone setting on stereo. if still not connected leave for about a minute to see if it works.
i had to try a few times but after it connected once automatically it worked perfectly. also you could try setting it all ready for the automatic connection and then making a call. i find this helps if music streaming doesnt connect. just hit play and then all of a sudden bluetooth kicks in.
Upgraded my HD7 last weekend, very smoothly but now struggling to connect it to my BMW Bluetooth car kit.
Phone and headunit pair up with no issues, and I can access the address book and SMS from the nah screen but it will not route telephone calls through to the phone.
Also the Bluetooth connection icon on the HD7 top bar doesn't show up making me think something is wrong with Bluetooth radio on the phone.
My iPhone 4 connects fine and works with no issues making. Me think HD7 id more at fault
Sent from my HD7 T9292 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
I can connect ok to my bluetooth stereo but I have noticed that with mango music cuts out more often and turn-by-turn navigation voice prompts don't work well. It apparently tries to connect as a phone call and cuts off all but the last few words.
Im seeing a large trend of HD7 with bluetooth issues. I have a trophy and dont have cutting out issues but I do have poor bluetooth music quality. Try this registry fix and see if it solves any of your problems. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=843593&page=2
I also have a BMW with idrive. Where do you go to check SMS?
Hi guys,
I'm having a hard time trying to solve this
On my PC, Win7 x64 PRO, I have BlueTooth dongle, and my HTC Sensation connected to it. I can easily transfer files from one device to another, but I would like to use my headset and microphone to talk on them when my Sensation receives call, or place call.
I have very old HP laptop (3 yrs old), and it has BT in it. When I connect Sensation to it, it works flawless. When someone calls me, I get a popup from Windows Media Player, and there I can answer and talk via headset and built in mic on laptop.
What do I need to do here?! I really need this more that file transfer =)
In device propertis of my phone connected to pc I can test and check my mic and speaker settings for using them as bridge for voice calls, but I cant use it.
Thnx.
Nobody?!

Hello everyone, my first post here.
I had a simmilar very frustrating issue with my bluetooth on galaxy s2 and win x64.
After countless hours and days of frustration i finally got it running
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1464734
I recently remembered that my PC has Bluetooth Capability. I'm sure I noticed when I bought it but never gave it much thought. So I attempted to connect my phone to my Windows 8 PC and WOW it worked I was so stoked! But now, I am apparently stuck. My device is paired. It believes that it is paired. It even sends audio to my Bluetooth device, so that my speakers are not on. But I am not hearing a thing on my PC. I had hoped that now with them being paired, I would be able to make and receive calls on my PC, as well as stream audio from my phone to my PC. So far, however, I can do exactly nothing with this connection. Am I missing something here, or is this a completely useless feature?
