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

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!

Hi to all,
I have a irritating problem when I try to connect my Trinity with Sony car radio via bloetooth. Everything goes ok, but after connection and after making first successfull call (no matter if I call or if somebody calls to me) the PDA becomes silent permanently. No sounds at all, even when I try to listen a music. Also when I call to someone, the person on the other side also can't hear me. I need to make softreset to have any sounds. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Hi!
I forgot my usual headphones at home but I do have my Touch Pro and its usb headset. Can I redirect the sound from my PC to my Touch Pro via bluetooth and then get the sound out its headset?
Quick replies are greatly appreciated!!
Best Regards Gustaf
hmmm... redirecting sound to a device from a PC... I have no idea if such a thing exists (And haven't done a deep search) but I think you should try to offer the guys who created BlueAudio or BlueMusic to create such a thing.
if you could be a beta tester you'd also get it for free... most probably
hi all
dont know if anyone can help or point me in the right direction but i found this yesterday
Phone music & calls to PC Speakers
For me the headset & AV service work perfectly, straight away.
Turn on bluetooth, pair with your PC, and touch again to connect.
Apparently my old HTC Desire had these services (AV Source and Headset) but it always paired but didn't maintain a connection... no obvious reason, didn't bother to look up why lol.
I was just excited when as soon as I connected with my PC with WP7, the Headset service asked for permission and after that all phone audio came through!
Old news to some but it is really cool having your phone blast music through your PC speakers wirelessly absolutely no effort or hassle at all!
NOW IVE PAIRED TO MY WIN7 LAPTOP BUT WHEN I TAP ON COMPUTER ON THE MOZART IT COMES UP NOT CONNECTED. ANY IDEAS?
SECOND WHEN MY MOZART PLAYS SMS TONES WHEN PHONE IS IN STANDBY ITS LIKE IT HAS A HICKUP, IT STARTS PLAYING SKIPS AND FOR PERHAPS 1/2 A SECOND AND CARRIES ON. ANY IDEAS ON THAT ONE EITHER?
THANKS EVERYONE IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP
Hi Guys,
Not sure if this is the correct place for this but firstly thanks for the modded drive link app, I can now stream apps on my head unit.
I am a little frustrated.... before I got mirrorlink working I was using my phones bluetooth with the unit for hands free calling. Now I'm using mirrorlink and the phone is connected via USB, the call sounds are not coming through the stereo, they play through the phone as if on loudspeaker!! The stereo still controls the rtext messaging and read them out and playes my app sound through the stereo. It is just phone calls playing through the phone itself! Its like I've taken a step back. Any ideas guys???
Thanks in Advance.
