Has anyone tried using the XDA IIs with the Parrot CK3100 or any Parrot bluetooth car kits yet.
I am wondering if the new hands free profile is working well and what are the car kits limitations with the new XDA IIs.
I currently own an XDA II and the Parrot CK3100 is pretty limited with it due to the XDA II only supporting headset profile.
What features aren't working when using the XDA II? I tested XDA II and 3100 and it worked fine, including voice dialling (this is part of Parrot kit).
I then tried the PDA2K, it bonded fine. BUT... It didn't show my PDA2K's name, when bonded, on the display. I ran outta time at this point, only thing I got to do was receive a call, which worked.
My wife has a Sony Erricson T610
When I use this phone with my CK3100 the features are really good.
Battery and signal strength are displayed on the CK3100 display.
The CK3100 uploads a menu onto the T610 which gives access to all the settings from the phone.
Etc Etc Etc... infact all the advanced functions that this great car kit has with most other phones just arnt supported with XDA II.
Add to that the loud buzzing noise that you get intermittently when dialing out as the XDA II Bluetooth connects and also the fact that when you press the answer button it takes 2 or 3 seconds to actually pick up the call. And if you get impatient and press the answer button again it hangs up the call.
Its just bad... very bad... It is the worst thing about the XDA II.
I have ordered my XDA IIs now and was simply wondering whether I was in for more of the same fun when it arrives...
I purchased mine yesterday. Once the WOW effect wore off, came the disappointments..
The bluetooth is terrible. Lots of static in my Plantronics Voyager Pro, and also it pairs with my Nissan BT handsfree, but only connects the first time, afterwards its not possible to connect to it anymore.
Flashed to the latest KE7, factory reset, did not help at all.
How can such an expensive phone be like this? Bluetooth is one of the most important features in a phone...
I have the same pairing issue like you. Don´t get my Sony Bluetooth headset to work. Tested it with two devices.
I have car bt xplode System and i never had it so good. Always connects. It does skip if wifi is on though. I had the same issue with gs1.

Happily mine works nice, with SonyEricsson a2dp stereo headset, Belkin a2dp receiver, a nokia handsfree (not sure about the model), the file transfer is faaaaaast
It has paired everything I used it with and no problems so far.
The sound is even better than it is via my retired iphone.
does anyone tried working with SE LIVEVIEW.
My N1 had truble, and looking forword to SGS2 and don't know yet if it is OK.
Also have problem with a Plantronic Discovery 975. Statics and stuttering sound. No problem pairing though and it is the same (bad) sound quality if I'm near or 5 m away.
I'm on KE7 firmware.
Wow, should this be added to the official bug list?
For me, bluetooth intermittently skips if wifi is turned on. Once I turn wifi off, its crystal clear. This has happened on all my different bluetooth headsets so if other are experiencing the same thing, I think this is definitely an "official bug".
Mine skips, and randomly drops connection to my JVC car stereo requiring a reboot. Back and forward buttons don't work reliably either.
Anyone who says theirs is clear is wrong. They just don't have an ear for decent sound quality. The bitpool on every Android phone (including Cyanogen) is horribly low and it really shows in the mid-high tones (ie hi-hats). No-ones is different.
Worst of all, sometimes if I get out of my car, I'll get a 'hot' leg where the device is overheating from the bluetooth going nuts. I feel like it's damaging my SGS2.
Yapp, can confirm that turning of wifi stopped the stuttering. Sound isn't great but probably usable. Defenitly a bug?

Any progress on this yet? Mine drops the sound quite a lot. Remains connected but just no sound and does this about every 15 minutes, requiring bluetooth to be turned on and off.
First let me start off by saying, my bluetooth pairs well with my Motorola S7HD and the sound to ME is DECENT until you put it in your pocket and from there it gets "staticky" somewhat but not too bad.
As for the car, I have to manually pair the phone to the car stereo every time. Sometimes it would connect it to automatically. The sound to MOST of us in the car is fine. Keep in mind most of us aren't audiophiles. If it plays well, understandable, and without any static, it's a ok in my book.
The suckerpunch is that sometimes the bluetooth would drop connection now and then. I need to do a restart on the phone to get it flowing again. Meh.
If anyone finds a fix, please tell
i also get crappy sound quality, but whats worse is, that neither the mic nor the earplugs work on my BT headset when i try to answer a call! (sony ericsson mw600 headset)
only when i pause the call and resume it, the headset works!
did anyone experienced this?
solved it by disabling wifi....seems to be a common android issue
Any progress on this issue?
E.g. does 2.3.4 improve?
Hi @all,
I noticed a (bluetooth) headset issue while calling (not only in this rom, even in all roms i have tested): when wifi is on, crack sounds make every call inaudible.
It happens with plantronics voyager 520 and BMW professional (2011) car kit.
I can't believe having the best phone with such an error.
Suspending wifi, stops the crack sounds, but the quality of headset calls is much worse than with my "old" SGS1.
I use my phone two hours a day for calling. I'm not amused about this fact.
Other surveillances?

Hey guys,
I am having serious BT streaming and Call Issues with my MoPho. When I connect it to my car's (Hyundai Genesis Coupe) BT, there are pauses when streaming music and when I make a call, the quality is not good. This never happened to me with my other phones (HTC Evo Shift and Nexus S 4g). Any suggestions? I am running stock rooted.

My guess is it's a combination of the phone and your car's BT.
I pair my Photon with my Kenwood KDC-X995 and call quality is excellent.
I can't comment on streaming audio as the deck doesn't support it (crazy i know considering it's Kenwood's flagship aftermarket single-din deck :-/ )
I disagree, I think the phone's bluetooth is severely messed up. I have a Plantronics m100, voyager and a Bose bluetooth. ALL of them do this: I can connect and start talking on the call, if I put the phone in my pocket cal quality goes from 10 to about a 4. Also, when talking on my bt (any of them) I can talk for about 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 1 minute, it is just random. It will completely disconnect although my bt light is still on on the phone, I hear them through the headset, then the phone just hangs up. If I catch it in time I can toggle the bluetooth button on the phone and they will be back. They are actually sending me another phone, but if it doesn't fix it I will just send it back.
I think this is on moto's end.

Can honestly say mine hasn't done any of this
I use the BT in my car stereo, a Jabra BT8040 and a Jabra Extreme headset.
Mine works great with my jaw bone icon for audio and media. Best connection ive ever had with a phone and the range is great I thought my headset was bad when I had my nexus, but it works great with this phone.

Your blue led lights up when on BT?
I'm experiencing call drops on a regular basis. this only happens during bluetooth calls. I've got great reception and call quality otherwise. But during a conversation, it will drop after about 5 minutes. I connect to either a headset or my car stereo and it's the same scenario. When using wired headphones , holding up to my ear or speaker phone I can stay connected indefinitely. Any solution?
Thanks,
I'm rooted fyi.

Hey everyone,
Has anyone noticed bluetooth issues? I've pointed them out in other threads, but they seem to be glossed over. I hate to seem like a noob by creating new threads, but I fear that the issue is being looked over by most people. I've read a few reports of people having issues with their phones connecting to their cars or headsets automatically. Has anyone else faced these issues?
I specifically cannot get my BT headset to connect unless I unpair and repair it everytime I want to use it. Sometimes even during a phone call the headset will drop connection and wont reconnect unless i turn it off and on a few times. For reference, I've tried multiple BT headsets and they all behave the same way. These headset's also work just fine with my Galaxy S2, just not with my S3 (international on XLE8)
No problems with bluetooth here and I use it a lot (HS3000, Logitech Boombox, PS3 and Wii controllers too).
No issues here. Phone sometimes doesn't pair automatically with the BT kit in my work car, but I've had that issue with my S1 and S2 in the same car so I'd say it's a problem with the headunit.
Works perfectly with the Sony headunit in my own car, and connects to my mate's fine.
ok, what firmware rev are you guys running? im going nuts not being able to use bluetooth here!!
somewhat related.
i often leave my sgs3 connected to my laptop via usb when i fall asleep. at morning, battery's charged 100% obviously and phone isn't hot.
last time around, i was listening to music via hm3700 bluetooth headset. then later turned off the bluetooth headset. i forgot to turn off the bluetooth on sgs3 and again fell asleep while it's still connected via usb to laptop.
when i woke up at morning as usual battery's charged 100% but the sgs3 was hot, not so hot but isn't anywhere the normal hot we're accustomed to.
connects automatically to my car's BT built-in system. Only needed to pair once.
Works very well with my Sennheiser PXC 310 BT.
If I switch on the headphones the phone automatically connects to it.
can everyone please detail their firmware/kernel they are using?
i am on XXALE8, with the stock kernel
I have problems on XXLE8 as well connect it to my car head unit and it acrually crashes the headunit after 5 mins being connected . After the heaf unit crashes 3 times it requires a pin code. Iphone 4, 4s and gs2 connect no issues.

thanks for your input, i upgraded to XALF5 and still having the same issues. this is frustrating!!!!
Oddly - my phone will automatically connect to my cars in-built BT system, but it won't auto connect to my Jawbone Era without switching BT of and back on....
I also have problems, with my build-in bt in my car. Have XXBLH3. Connect fine, but drop the connection 2-3min after. My SGSII have no problems
No Ringtone through Bluetooth
Okay here is my problem……I want my custom ringtones i have set for contact to play in my Bluetooth headset when a receive a call, not that dumb ring. That way I will know if I want to take the call or not because I can tell by the ringtone who is calling. Why would Samsung disable this feature. my iPhone 4s plays the ringtone I have setup when I get a call. Is there anyway to do this. I ride a motorcycle and I have a device called a Chatterbox that let’s me connect via Bluetooth to my phone so I can hear my music and talk and make calls while I am riding. On my iPhone 4s my music would pause my custom ringtone would play and I could decide it I wanted to take the call or send it to voicemail, then my music would start right back up from where it left off. Right now my Galaxy i717 and my Galaxy i747 (Note and S III) just play this annoying ring and I can’t tell who it is! Any have a fix or work around for this.
Hmmm, the sound on my cars bluetooth gets distorted and only a reconnect will fix, and more worringly sometimes the S3 will not wake up after disconnecting from my car and only a hard reset will solve it.
My S2 did pretty much the same thing.
