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

with the dongle
otherwise i've also heard that using the other bluetooth stack to enable A2DP (normal sound over bluetooth) dont want to work with the normal phone headset profile

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.

I've spent many a frustrated hour trying to find a way to use my Bluetake I-Phono bluetooth headphones without that damn dongle and at long last, I've found a solution!
"Simply" install the WM2003SE upgrade by toenailed/xda2jojo (which is pretty bloomin impressive, BTW) and then install the HP iPAQ Bluetooth Stereo Headphones Driver Update.
This adds a "High Quality Audio setup" option to the Broadcom bluetooth implementation within the WM2003SE upgrade. Not quite A2DP but pretty damn close. Fidelity, volume, bass are pretty good, particularly considering its a wireless connection, but there are occasional "pops" and "squeaks" to contend with. The connection is so sensitive that I'm having to maintain line-of-sight between my XDAII and the right-hand (BT connected) side of the headphones. I can move several yards away but only as long as I keep the LOS, otherwise the connection degrades significantly.
It's far from perfect but its not a bad compromise until someone cracks A2DP on the XDA (something which I would happily pay £50 to achieve, if any interested party is listening).
Cheers,
Ged.
Headset Update
I've been playing around with bluetooth headset settings and I can't make it work under either BT stack.
BLUETOOTH HEADSET
Hi there mate I have V3 BTHS I tried using broadcom plus the upgrade but its not working...not sure though if I configure it correctly ...When i checked the connection on the bluetooth MAnager/Active Connection it shows an Icon in the Outgoing Connection and it is connected but i dont hear any sounds on my bt headset. What could be the problem? BTW my BT works on the orig bluetooth progy but only on the calls not in music players and sound notification. Hope you can help me. Thanks
As I understand it, you can use a BT headset for calls or BT headphones for music, but not both. My headphones are supposed to work in headset mode but they don't... for the moment at least.
Sorry I can't help further mate.
I understand "High Quality Audio setup" is A2DP. There is nothing more to achieve.

Okay I have the Bluetake i-PHONO on order. Can someone please tell me if it's possible to use them as stereo headphones and a headset at the same time? When you add the Bluetake to your BT setup as high-quality audio, can you add it at the same time as a BT headset? Does it show up as two icons in the BT manager? The Bluetake is supposed to automatically switch between A2DP and headset/handsfree profile... What I want is to be listening to music using media player over A2DP, then hit the button on the Bluetake and pick up a call. Isn't this the way it's supposed to work?
BLUETOOTH HEADSET
oh ok now it makes sense hehe. thanks PinkySlayer. Iphono is bit expensive though its almost a price of a mini ipod...
Expensive they may be, MTX, but I HATE cables, and what's the point in carrying around an MP3 player when you already have one in the form of an XDA (albeit with a few 1GB SD cards in tow)!? I'm working towards a personal nirvana of "single music source, multiple outputs"; I have an FM transmitter wired up to my GPS enabled car cradle so both my WMA and TomTom audio come out of my car speakers; I have wireless Sennheiser headphones for the house and now and now I have wireless BT headphones for mobile use.
I didn't think that was the case, surur. It certainly isn't in practican terms in that the Bluetake phones work great with their own BT dongle (which truly supports A2DP) but with the "High Quality Audio setup", things arn't so rosy.
That's what the Bluetake phones are designed to do, trhuseby, but I think the only way to achieve that at the moment is to use the BT dongle for music playback and then connect your XDA direct to the phones in headset mode. I believe that the phones would then automatically swap from music playback to headset mode when a call comes in, but you have to use that bloody dongle.
The settings for "High Quality Audio setup" do allow the (de)selection of both audio and headset connections but alas, this does not make it work.
BT HEADPHONE

Hi, finally did you try the Bluetake? Did you found any solution or stereo headphones with headset working for you?
Thanks
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.

ok we all have our lovely toys and are all connected with cingulars awesome high speed internet. some of us are probly saving mins by using skype calls. well thats what i do any ways. i picked up a plantronics 855 stereo and mono bluetooth headset. in mono mode it also supports a2dp so it seemed like u can use it to do skype calls but turns out that a2dp doesnt turn on the mic, so ur dependent on the mic on the unit instead of the headset. does anyone know how to get a2dp and have the mic on too. skype calls are saving me a fortune but cant always have my ear up to my beautiful phone ((( people tend to stare at u when u got a umpc like device up to your ear)))

Yes, there is a problem with mic in stereo headsets. I have Jabra mono headset and another Jabra stereo one.
If I use my mono Jabra, I can use BT Audio to redirect all audio including mic to the headset. Unfortunatelly this does not work with my stereo Jabra (320s). If I try to use BT Audio while using Jabra 320s, something strange happens and the audio system gets crazy, it usualy does not transmit any audio or gets stucked completly. That is why, if I have my Jabra 320s on, I simply use it as audio in, and the standard mic in X7500 for my VoIP. It works well and prevents against the echo effect. The mic in X7500 is very good, so I can keep it in normall distance of about 50 cm from my face. I use Aget phone for my VoIP, but it works with SJPhone as well.
Edit:
I have made my Jabra 320s (stereo) to provide mic in VoIP. I have unclicked the "Wireless Stereo" option in Bluoetooth settings og the headset. After this BT Audio works well and does not create any problems.
Now the only issue I have is to find some software which could work like BT Audio but from command line. I use Aget phone which can be set to start any software with command line, just before and after the call. This could be easily used to send audio with mic to BL headset just before the call and then return it to standard settings after the call.
Any clues...?
Hello,
I bought a Jabra BT3030 lookalike, expecting to use it to control the Blackstone, which will have wired headphones connected directly to the 3.5 jack (best sound quality, convenience of a remote, and I expect long battery life).
However I cannot get the sound to come through the headset if the remote works. It looks like if a stereo headset is connected, all sound will be sent to it (if I connect the headset to the BT receiver, it works fine).
I tried switcha2dp but if I switch off AD2P, the remote stops working.
I hoped to use only the AVRCP profile when pairing, but that is not an option (I only have "handsfree" or "wireless stereo", "handsfree" does not work for music/remote).
Can anyone offer any advice? I'd like to disable AD2P while keeping AVRCP but I can't seem to find a way...
Thanks,
Did you ever find a solution to this? I am in the exact same situation
