I'm having trouble with my Jabra BT250v and my Fuze. The Jabra always worked perfectly with my Nokia phone so I don't believe it's a problem with the unit. The first oddity I noticed is that it paired automatically without asking for a code. After researching this I found out that the new Bluetooth driver does this by design with non secure items like headsets and such by trying a series of commonly used codes like "0000", "1234". That's all good and well, and it does seem to pair up, but I've read that other devices have trouble being bombarded with codes like that and even though it shows up as paired, it doesn't work. I'm not sure if this is the cause of my problem or not, but is the only obvious thing I could pick out.
I've tried putting the ear piece back into the charging cradle to reset it before trying to pair it. I've tried the standard pairing procedure by turning the device on by holding the power button for 8+ seconds until the light goes solid. I've tried the alternate method of holding both the power and volume up button to pair it in the handsfree mode. I've manually set it to handsfree mode once the device is listed on the phone. I'm really out of things to try to get this going.
Basically it pairs and all looks good but I don't get any sound out of the unit and trying to initiate a call or redial does nothing. The phone just keeps going as if it never paired up at all. I'm hoping someone has some more ideas I could try as I would really like to get this working. I wasn't sure if there was a way to just re-install the Bluetooth stack, or even an alternate Bluetooth driver I could try. If it does have something to do with the auto-pairing feature, does anyone know how to disable this? I'm willing to try damn near anything that can help me pinpoint the problem. I haven't been able to locate any Bluetooth troubleshooting tools and even looked at the service manual, but they just put it through a simple test and it doesn't delve into anything deeper.
Lastly I should mention that I am able to use Active Sync over Bluetooth with my laptop and it does ask for a pairing code so I'm really stumped. I guess it is a possibility that the Jabra is messing up since I last used it with my Nokia about 2 weeks ago, it just seems highly unlikely. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks,

Heya guys,
I'm having some major issues with the default ms bt stack in regards to connecting my dell bh200 stereo bluetooth headset. I can connect to it to play stereo music but it refuses to pick up calls, the moment a call comes it, it disconnects itself immediately. I'm wondering if this is an issue with the MS stack. Is there a way for me to change the bt stack into widcomm's or something like that? anyways, drop a message if you know something. thankyou very much!
I'm having a bit of trouble with the bluetooth on my unit as well. Are you able to send files to your device using a bluetooth dongle on your PC? or files from other phones to your Touch Pro?
hi i'm trying to pair my bluetooth headset (Samsung WEP200) but everytime i put the pin number (that is given by the bluetooth headset) it always said "Your Device did not connect with Samsung WEP200. The connection Failed or the passcode is incorrect".
how to install the hotfix (the hot fix from HTC website) on my HTC Touch Pro? everytime i copy the .exe file into my device, and run it, i always got an error box. Incorrect Device, "Please use the correct Device to Install This Hotfix program!" i don't know how it happen, i download this from HTC support page. i select the phone (HTC Touch Pro) and in the "Software Download" tab it show that there are 3 available download, the Hotfix, the Rom and Application.
i really need help....... pls, someone that have the same proble with theit HTC Touch Pro bluetooth connection.....
I can send files to my PC, the bluetooth connection in general is ok, but when it comes to having the the stereo bt headset to pick up a call, it freaks out and the headset turns itself off. any ideas on that?
/bump to page one for help
what do you mean bump to page 1 for help?? i post a thread before, but no one help me to solve the problem... i'm really frustrating to paired my bkuetooth headset.... =(
i just wish people who have the same problem and already solve it can help me....
what I mean is that you need to stop posting help me replies to every single post there is about bluetooth in effort to get others to help you rather than the original poster. what it also means is that stalking every bt related post and copy/pasting your problems for the same reason (as mentioned above) is also pretty rude. if you would like help, make a thread or search for it while having a separate thread.
there are people on xda that are well versed in wm6.1, but it's a matter of being lucky enough to have them notice it or happen to have one that knows about this stuff deciding to help.
p.s if you need help w a specific issue, start a thread, not derail it for your own personal benefit please.
p.p.s i'm not trying to be a jerk, it may sound like it but i'm not in the mood to be one
Are there any other bt stack options for wm6.1 or am I short out of luck?
Pushhh to page one.
This topic is pasted all over the net and it doesn't seem to be getting much attention, however I think it should be brought to a better light.
The idea is simple: Enable your Android Phone or Tablet to become a bluetooth reciever(to replace a headset or bluetooth speakers) and broadcast audio to the device and broadcast microphone from the device.
This could be used in several different applications:
1. Using an Android Tablet as a Car Stereo Interface
(Connect Phone to Tablet Via Bluetooth and use it as a hands free speakerphone, or aux out to your stereo)
2. Multiple Android Phones
(Have a business and personal phone? Answer all your calls from one.)
3. Phone or Tablet as Bluetooth Speaker/Mic
(Skype, PS3, Xbox 360, TV, Google Voice)
I would use several of these options on a daily basis, and would most definitely pay good money for an app like this.
So my questions are:
1. Is this possible?
2. If it is, how hard would it be?
3. If it isn't that hard, why hasn't someone done it yet!?
Bump if you want this too!
Just wanted to bump this because we need to put our heads together here and get this done. I need this capability for number 1 on your list of potential uses. I also would pay good money for an app that enabled this. Phones and tablet are rooted and ready to modify whatever is needed. Ii've bumped a couple other threads today as well.
I would also pay for this!
I have been looking for this for a while. I use an old LG Eve in my car and my Captivate's Wifi connection for GPS but I would love to have it work for calls and music too.
I would pay as well.
bumping this just to say that I'm going to research the rules and process for starting a bounty. obviously the smart people we need to work on this need motivation lol

Hi there,
just wanted to leave an incentive kind of post to say that I've also been looking for exactly the same thing.
My hunting on Google play just stopped after finding this post on XDA.
It's a kind of confirmation that there isn't a solution yet.
Since our rooted androids are more than capable of acting as a Bluetooth receiver, whether they may be based on new or older hardware, this seams like a very logical step in their lifecycle instead of getting forgotten in a drawer full of old and unused electronic waste.
Some doubts:
is a2dp required for this?
Is a2dp hardware related or simply a software feature?
Personally, I could live with a simple one way communication from a phone with mobile network (sender ) to the receiver. The used mic could still be the one on the sender side.
Wouldn't even need to have the receiver in a visible place as I would just connect a stereo cable from its headset output to an aux input on a hifi or a car stereo to hear music or acting as a hands-free system.
Hope this gets some real attention.
Cheers
In one year, nobody found a solution??
I can't beleive there is STILL no progress on this. Maybe I'll try asking a dev that has made similar apps the feasibility of this. There are so many practical uses for this that I cannot beleive no one has capitalized on it.
This would be a killer app if done right. Who here doesn't have an old phone laying around gathering dust? This could start off small; simply enabling the phone/tablet to be essentially a Bluetooth speaker, but then gain features and an interface using A2DP, which would evolve it into a killer way to make any car (with at least a tape deck) able to have full Bluetooth integration and control. I really hope someone can do this!
Bump
Bkb -> p -> PC (either wifi/blu/usb)
yeah so a spare bluetooth phone that connects between a keyboard and PC. Acting like a BT dongle. No way I'm spending 10 bucks for that. if an app...maybe a buck but would prefer free.
looking for this too. Wanting to turn this old phone into a bt audio receiver
Wow, endless searching and now this thread and still nothing :/ i need it for the first idea you listed, did you ever find something?
https://android.googlesource.com/pl.../java/android/bluetooth/BluetoothHeadset.java
Currently the Android Car Multimedia receives Bluetooth Stereo Audio from Phones (Andoird/Apple), how they do it?
Any news?
So many years and still nothing?
May be this is not the right way to do.
I know this is a crazy old subject but others have commented so I don't feel so bad.
I want to make my own android system for my car. I have everything I need for it (hardware/software-wise) except for this one thing.
A few years back there used to be an app called Tablet Talk, it's not exactly what we want but I'm still willing to settle for something like that. The way it works is phone->tablet->handsfree Bluetooth speaker. You could make and receive calls (including seeing the contact names/phone numbers on the tablet) from the tablet itself, then the audio/microphone goes to the handsfree device. Another added feature was when a call is happening the app stops all audio coming from the tablet until the call is done.
Like I said before, it's not perfect but at this point, I don't ever see it happening any other way. I found the app a few days ago, it doesn't exist on the app store anymore, unfortunately, I could get it to run. It just kept crashing.
If anyone knows of something then please let us know.
Years later, found just this thread: I want to do similar thing: Use a private phone (for my sake rooted with custom fw) as a hands-free bt device with an unrooted business phone (non-rooted and secure managed with company tool). I also don't want call forwarding or similar. Just do and answer calls, use phone book and call list via bluetooth like my car radio do for years.
Is there still no solution?
I tried to do it my self but i failed, thought i'd put it as a challenge for someone if its possible or maybe if someone has already done it and maybe willing to share?
I've bought Logitech H600 headphones and it comes with microphone and a Bluetooth usb connector.
The problem i ran into is weird but i bet many of us would have gone through it before or probably somewhere been fixed but as i am not aware of where about thus thought to make a thread here to share with all.
Microphone & headphones works with computer and doesn't have any problem in making calls through skype and other apps using computer.
The real problem is with the phone..
1: The headset works perfectly it does connect with Phone and plays MEDIA files through headphones without any problem.
BUT!
2: it doesn't direct calls even though it has microphone, where i dont understand why would it work on PC and not on phone even though it does have headphones and microphone, is it possible to work things out for this like writing small script or an app to fix this issue some how?
I'd love to know if any of you guys have ran into this and have problem with this and dont want to lose the beloved headset...
Cheers in advance for all those who reply and try to resolve this issue.
still looking.
Hey all,
I recently installed RR on my OPO because it looks awesome and because I was hoping it would fix some bluetooth issues i've been having with the phone. It is awesome, but unfortunately didn't fix my bluetooth-aches.
I was reading somewhere that it is possible to "change the bluetooth radio" (???). I think it means install new drivers? Anyways, does anyone know of a way I can try out a completely different bluetooth driver (stack?, radio?, software?, etc...).
The symptoms are:
Pairing to certain devices is a nightmare, it takes upwards of 20 tries and even then sometimes it doesnt work. When it does, it stays paired and connects most of the time automatically.
I have a Garmin D2 that simply won't pair with the phone. Using the garmin app, the phone complains about the key being incorrect (the 6 digit bluetooth key) but it is...
Anyways, if someone can point me in the direction of a bluetooth radio that is compatible with RR, i'd appreciate it.
