TomTom comes through the speaker of my XDA2, not my BT201 Headset. I am running the 'latest' O2 ROM upgrade v1.60.50:
TomTom support informed me "2. Using a Bluetooth headset as well as the Bluetooth GPS receiver has been tested positively on this PDA. Please contact the O2 Support if your PDA does not connect to two Bluetooth devices at the same time. "
I've tried contacting O2 Support & given up after 30 minutes on TWO occasions
Any help appreciated!
I believe that this is correct but you have just misinterpreted what they have said. I think that what they mean is you can still use your BT headset for making and receiving calls while using the BT GPS receiver, this doesn’t mean the sound will go out through the BT headset, this isn’t possible.
However having said that, I don’t actually own a BT GPS receiver so I can't be 100% sure, I could be wrong and if I am I'm sure one will correct me.
I can confirm that using my Bluetooth Headset with a Holux GR230 bluetooth receiver is working fine for making and receiving calls in tomtom 3. But to get tomtom instructions throught the headset would by nice too, but I think there are still bluetooth profiles missing?? (audio profile?) I have installed Bluetooth tools.

Can you, for example, simultaneously have a BT Headset and BT Handsfree with both working properly. Currently the mic. doesn't work on Handsfree (and it should work).
Does it have an improved Windows BT implementation or is it based on Widcomm?
Thanks
Yes, I have just tested it for you. I have paired a BT GPS, a Mr Handsfree Headset and a handsfree carkit. All the devices work fine. Alse all the functionality of my carkit is working.
Thanks,
Does it have a more organised Bluetooth Manager? On the XDA II (WM2003) it is very inadequate. The microphone is turned off in the handsfree profile for example and you can only define one headset amd one handfree device.

hi all
i've read that there is the possibility to listen to ttn5's voice in BT headset while himalaya is paired with gps BT receiver.
I even read that, making this system upgrading, headset's functions are disabled.
is it true?
is there the possibility to listen to ttn5's voice while bt receiver is paired AND mantain headset/handsfree's functions?
I've wm2003 se 2.06 installed
thanks all
it is with this headset and others which use the same tech

hello, i use an new os xda mini s. i will use it with bluetooth-gps and tom tom navigator 5 in my car. can i also use an bt-headset at the same time to place a phonecall?
greets,
mikka
Sure, I do this all the time with my K-Jam, the external speaker will stop during a phone call. If you use BT toggle to direct gps voice prompts thorough your bt headset the call will still ring through and put the audio from the gps on hold until the call ends. I've hooked up an fm transmitter to the headphone jack and played gps voice prompts through the car stereo and they continue even if a call comes through the bt headset. Hope this answers your question.
I've seen conflicting messages about using bluetooth stereo headphones with BA. I'd like to listen to stereo music from my BA (basically use as a MP3 player) using bluetooth headphones but I've seen conflicting messages. I almost purchased a bluetooth stereo headset but the sales agent indicated that they required A2DP which is only supported by WM 5. I'm using Pocket PC 2003 SE and can not upgrade to WM 5 as I need BBconnect support which supposedly isn't supported on WM 5. I don't need the bluetooth stereo headphones to fully integrate with the phone, in other words, if I can listen to music but it doesn't cut off when a phone call comes in that is alright.
Can anyone share their experiences on this matter?
As far as i know A2DP is only avaialble on WM5.
Edit
BBconnect is also avaialble on WM5, you just have to find the right install thats compatible with your Provider, IIRC.
No no, A2DP can in fact be installed on Pocket PC 2003 SE! It's just not officially supported. Take a look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=258457. It contains links to the resources you need.
It works, I assure you.
Just download the ".cab" upgrade
(see http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Bluetooth_1.0.0.3900_Upgrade)
I use bluetooth stereo "clip" with my headphones and my father uses motorola HT820 stereo headphones, normally, to listen to mp3.
Thanks for the lead, I installed the suggested cab and I now have the high quality audio setup in my bluetooth manager. I need to go out and purchase a bluetooth headphones this weekend to try it out. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
OK I went out and purchased a pair of ITech bluetooth headphones but I can't get the BA to recognize recognize them. When I go into Bluetooth manager and try to add a new device I get the "High Quality Audio Setup" choice but then the BA times out after searching for about 30 seconds. The headphones are fully charged and turned on. I have the BT 1.0.0 Build 3900 Bluetooth update.
Any ideas?
Oops, never mind, I was able to get the headphones to pair. I didn't read the pairing instructions sufficiently. The answer was holding down the power button on the headphones until the PPC recognized it.
Nice to hear it worked out. Enjoy!

My 9090 already has BT v1.0.0 Build 3900. Is this cab file an upgrade for v1.0.0.3900 or an upgrade to v1.0.0.3900? Like I said, I already have 1.0.0.3900 but the BT Connection Wizard isn't showing a "High Quality Audio Setup".
Take a look in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=264537
In the second post, there are 2 links. The first one adds the High Quality Audio Profile. I think that's all you need, since you already have the 3900 build. Check my answer to that post as well.
Hi,
has anyone yet had success in connecting e.g. a BT GPS receiver and a wireless headset at the same time to the wizard? I'm currently thinking about buying a BT-Headset, but don't want to miss the GPS navigation at the same time...
Thanks, Horst
yeah I've done it a bunch of times.
it works ok with a standard bt ear set but if you try the higher quality stereo set up i had all sorts of problems. The audio would slow down as the data wasnt getting through quick enough, then when it got the data it would play it fast to catch up to where it should be.
Two bluetooth devices
I have had no problems connecting a bluetooth GPS device and a Motorola headset at the same time.
I find the devices are more reliable if the bluetooth is connected first, then the headset.
When receiving a call on the headset the GPS and TomTom continue to work BUT I lose the sound from the TomTom programme - which has never caused any problems.
Cegmawr, have you done this using a BT Stereo Headset like the HT820? or using a standar mono BT headset?
I have an HT820 and when the GPS is on, i loose the Audio, it starts skipping
Make sure devices are Bluetooth 2 not 1.1
I had a Bluetooth 2 GPS and a bluetooth 1.1 hansfree speaker - bioth kept dropping out.
I now have a bluetooth 2.0 GOS and am using a Seimend Bluetooth Car Kit - all works perfectly, as it does with Nokia nd SoneyEric bluetooth headsets... seem s to me that Bluetooth 2 is the key.
Also, TomTom automatically mutes itself if you're in a call, nothing to do with Bluetooth.
