Is it possible to use a bluetooth headset for ALL audion not just the phone? I already use Pocket Skype but I want to be able to use my bluetooth headset - since it doesn't consider the Skype to be a phone call - how can I make it use the headset for all sounds produced by the device?
All help and advice appreciated. All good advice and help appreciated more. All useful advice and help... ah, now we're talking!

think people have been able to get headsets working for normal audio using the broadcom or vidcomm bluetooth stack insted of the ms one
but it also seems that those bluetooth stacks dont support the headset profile so people cant use their headset for phoning anymore
Interesting catch 22 - phone bluetooth or other sounds bluetooth - but not all sounds bluetooth.
Isn't it silly things like this that make a great device irritating?!(Rhetorical)
yes it's silly
guess it comes down to ms not liking bluetooth which they dident invent themselfs so their stack is kinda thin
not sure what vidcomm and the rests's excuse is
i personaly bougth the bluetake iPhono headset which have a dongle which makes it possible for me to use my headset to work with both
phone and music

If what you say is correct, then there is a bit of a conundrum. The telephone operates via the bluetooth stack - so how does the gps receiver connect? There is apparently a way for the PC element of the device to use bluetooth, so why not audio?
I think using an external Btooth transmitter id a bit OTT. This is a software fix requirement.

Hi, I am thinking to buy the Bletake Bluetooth I-Phono BT420Ex + BT430EX with my Qtek 2020 / Xda II, And I want to know it will work properly... my ROM it´s 2.20CHS.
And if yours answer it´s positive, how?
You connet the audio dongle to the output of the pda and the headset with the pda by BT?
Thanks
yes as bluetooth headset it's supported
and the xda dont have to support the dongle
as far as the xda see it the dongle is just a wired headset
the dongle take care of everything wireless
heck if you want you can connect the dongle to something else
and still have it as bluetooth headset for the xda at the same time
when you get a call the headset disable the audio from the dongle and act as a normal bluetooth headset
Hi,
according to this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=245461#245461 , I assume that you have this bt headphone and you have used it with satisfactory results...
Now, I still have a few doubts :
1) Do you connect the dongle to the pda and use it to listen music?
2) You use the bt manager of the pda as a handsfree?
3) Or do you use the dongle with the pda to both listen to music, and talk on the phone?
4) Or do you never use the dongle at all...?
5) Did you upgrade the bt manager of the pda? If this is true, where can I do it in the forum?
Thanks for all...
1 yes
2 yes
3 only needed when i listen to music
i just use bluetooth tools
and the org ms bluetooth stack
if one have a bluetooth stack which support a2dp
the dongle is not needed at all
Thanks!!
Many thanks for your patient and reply.

Hi all.
If I have the FM Transmitter connected to the headphone jack on the phone and try to use a Bluetooth headset to make/recieve calls while driving, will this work?
I am concerned that the phone will try to output the sound to the car stereo and that the voice will be picked up by the phones built-in speaker.
Thanks for any help in advance.
If it's a standard headphone adapter, it should be fine, I was able to use my BT headset with a Himalaya connected to desktop speakers, but it might vary with devices.
Best bet is try if you already have a BT headset to connect a normal pair of headphones to it and see what happens, it certainly won't hurt it, and the fact it's speakers, headphones, or FM transmitter is irrelevant as it's just a jackplug audio output as far as the device is concerned.
I don't have the BT headset yet - Going to buy the two said items together, but hopefully it works on the XDA/K-Jam or whatever too.
Thanks for the help
I am the happy owner of a HTC Topaz.
I ride a motorbike, and have recently bought a bluetooth crash helmet with built in speakers / mic which works a treat for answering and making calls and also for listening to TomTom navigation instructions from my HTC Topaz.
However, I have yet found a solution to allow me to listen to the built in radio via bluetooth. Because HTC requires the plug-in headset to act as an antena the radio doesnt work without it.
However when I plug in the headset, i get instant radio reception but then the sound is routed to the plug-in headset , rather thean the bluetooth speakers.
My logic tells me that there must be some way to use the plug in headset as ONLY an antena allowing the sound to be routed by deafault to the bluetooth headset. Surely this is software driven?
I am not a software Guru, but keen to learn and frustreted that there doesnt seem to be a yet obvious solution to this problem.
Any help would be appreciated.

Why 4 threads?
Dear all,
I would like to use my headphones with a bluetooth microphone or headset. I like my earphones and don't want to go through the wireless A2DP BT to listen to music, but in the same time I would like to have the possibility of a hands-free solution. So my question, is it possible to have the sound output on the earphones and the sound input on the mic of a bluetooth headset (like a clip-on on which I don't connect my earphones)
Is there anybody that can fiddle with his device if he has the proper hardware?
Thanks
i think its not possible. if i connect my phone to car, audio-output is only available via bluetooth

Hi!
the radio in my car doesn't have bluetooth (BT) so I need to use a BT audio adapter that I plug in the audio jack. THis would be the first device that I want to connect with my Honor 8. Because I don't want to switch tracks over the phone display, I would like to connect a bluetooth remote too that is attached to the steering wheel. FInally I would like to use a BT headset to make/answer calls while driving.
So there would be 3 BT devices that need to be connected to my phone at the same time...
Have any of you tried this? Should / can this work?
Thanks for your thoughts!

You can do that if you use 3 different protocol.
1. BT headset-phone audio
2.Bt aux-media audio(this give music audio and dedicated music control)
3. BT remote-have to be some kind of input type.
My setup for proof of concept using BT speaker, BT headset and BT remote(in pic)
I haven't had any luck connecting to my car's Bluetooth with emui 5.1 so I wish you the best of luck bud! I'm back to the aux cord life until something gets fixed. Please keep us posted on how things work out for you.
