How to make Work a estero headset/hadsfree + GPS navigation. - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development

Hi, I'd like to show i could use my connection BTH to pair this gadgets.
Model: XDA II with WM5 AKA 3.5
BTH: MSBluetooth Stack
BTH devices: Zaapa h900 headset + Iogear GPS.
Soft: wmplayer + Tomtom 6
First pair the GPS with the GPS in the Bluetooth tools.
Assign a COM (anyone) form the GPS.
Now start TT and conect to the GPS
Preferences--GPs Status--Setup.
other GPS ----- Com assigned previously.
Done, you get it On.
Ok, now press the hangs off button (red button than close the phonecall) so you get again in today screen.
Now got to the bluetooth utils and pair the headset. Must be active both profiles (stereo headset and handsfree). Close that window.
Activate (hold tap on the device profile) then choose the wireless stereo.
Now you get both on. If you go back to TT you could see the GPS works. Also if you restart the GPs it gets paired again. If you get a phonecall the handsfree gets on and the GPS keeps working, the music goes off. Once the call is finished the music comes back (in case it doensn't just press "next song" button in the headset)
If you close the navigation application the link is lost and you have to start again.
I've seen the MSBTH Stack get in dedicated mode when a stereo headset is active.. So you can't use the BTH until the headset is switched off. But if any device is paired before the connections isn't lost.
Is there any fix to this bug?
Is possible to make to the MSStack to don't get in dedicated mode when an headset is On?
Regards.
PD:: the bluetooth tools doesn't work. Even it doesnt' detect when a stereo headset is working.

Automatic Bluetooth Headset connection!

Does anyone know an app or a hack to get my blue stereo headset to connect as soon as I turn it on?
Humm this seems to work out of the box in my case; I just need to turn on the bluetooth & the headset ; after 2 sec they are working together fine.
but did you have to set it on bluetooth setting again as your hands free device?
I can get my Nokia Stereo Bluetooth headset to automatically connect for some reason! Its already paired but I constantly have to set it as my headset device in the bluetooth settings.
Here a link to my headset http://europe.nokia.com/accessorieslink?s=BH-501
Please let me know if anyone has any good ideas.
thanks

BT GPS feature on a BT HEADSET.

i have a BT-Q818 and one cool feature it has is that it goes on stand by mode once there is no connection. this is the case when i step out of the car. and whenever i start driving again, i seem to have had no pairing issue.
question is, is this FEATURE available on any BLUETOOTH HEADSET? reason being is that i only use my BT HEADSET when i drive and im getting tired with my current HS810 where its a hit and miss. sometimes it would pair and sometimes it would not.
thanks for any input guys.
Upon disconnection, the Nokia HS12-w displays "disconnected". Pressing the play button for a couple of seconds causes it to reconnect (I suspect to the last device it was connected with, but am not sure about that - I can test it if you like).
But even if you switch it off and back on, there is no need to pair again: it just starts searching for paired devices and connects with one of them (alas, no choice regarding what device it connects with, but it does seem to prefer Nokia devices over HTC ones).
The first connection it makes is as a headset (only calls are routed throught it, other sounds still come from the HTC). After pressing another button it also connect as an A2DP device and all sounds from the HTC are routed to it.

Jabra 320 A2DP problems...

Hey people,
I tried connecting my Jabra320 up to my Touch HD the other day. The headset should support A2DP for stereo bluetooth, which worked with my old Touch Dual, however, whenever I try adding the headset to my HD I can only see the hands free profile.
Anyone had any problems with A2DP or any ideas how to fix this?
I was thinking about getting a Sony Ericsson headset, but don't want to commit to the investment until I know that I can use the A2DP profile...
I'm using Dutty's v2.5 rom and the v1.12 radio.
Same problem with new duttys roms. It shows me both wireless stereo and handsfree but when i try only to connect A2DP it disconnects. Worked fine on older duttys roms.
I have Jabra 620s

You're getting a little further than I - I domn't see the 'Wireless Stereo' option at-all. Well I believe Dutty is releasing a new ROM soon. Hopefully it'll be fixed then. If not I'll mention the problem when it comes out - hopefully Dutty or someone will find a fix.
Thanks though for confirming I'm not the only one with this problem!
Hope you guys has fixed your problem. if not, let me tell you how to fix it.
I had the same issue before. now it works.
1. make sure your headset is power off and delete the connection on your cellphone.
2. connect your charger to the headset for 4 seconds, then disconnect it.
3. repeat step2 4 times.
4. after that, your headset will be reset. then, reconnect to your cell phone and you will see wireless stereo function enabled.
What I have discovered on my A2DP headphones (Philips SHB7100) is that when I power them on it will automatically connect but only with wireless headset (phone calls only) functionality.
What I have to do is go to the touchflo settings tab, select Menu> Bluetooth Devices and disconnect then reconnect the headset. Once I do that it connects for both A2DP and phone calls.
I also have a Jabra "Dogtag" headset and it ALWAYS reconnects with both automatically unlike the Philips set, so I suspect this also has something to do with the headset itself and not just the OS/ROM.

Widget to switch bluetooth devices?

I have a Jabra Clipper audio player to play my MP3's & streaming internet radio to my car stereo via 3.5mm jack. I also have my Moto BT headset that I use.
When I get a call the music is interrupted and I can answer the call with the Jabra Clipper and I can hear the call audio through the car speakers. The problem is my microphone on my phone is too far away on my car dock and people can't hear me.
So after answering the call I would have to go to settings, wireless, bluetooth and disconnect the Jabra and connect my Moto headset before I can take the call.
This is a pain and takes too long, is there a widget to swap paired BT devices? I cannot find anything in the marketplace.
Maybe a Tasker profile? I have Tasker but I haven't gotten any profiles to work yet.
I have a Droid X running Liberty 1.5.
Thanks.
I don't know if this will help, but can you not have both items paired and connected at the same time? My car has bluetooth for my phone for talk only, and I just added a Tunelink device to stream my music by bluetooth in the car. I've noticed when I get in the car that both will be paired, but only the car will be connected. So I have added a bluetooth widget to my homescreen, when I get in the car I will click on the widget that opens up the bluetooth settings and click on the Tunelink to connect it, from then on out both items are connected AND paired and both will work with no problems.
I initially had the HTC settings > Bluetooth shortcut, but then when Widgetsoid added the capability to choose bluetooth settings I changed to that.

Nice! I have a Jabra Clipper too! I say that because I have not seen anyone else with one yet lol.
Ever since I switched to CM7 I have been able to 1-touch enable/disable Bluetooth and Wifi among 10 other optional, additional buttons via the status bar. I hope this bar never goes away in future updates! Anywho you could check that out for managing your bluetooth connection quickly and efficiently.
All I can say in addition to that is clicking on individual bluetooth devices in the menu allows you to disable specifically phone / media audio. You could try disabling one or the other for one of your devices so that they both work independently. I'm not really sure how else to help you because of the unique situation.
Your best bet is to make your setup less complicated, by not using one or the other device, but I saved that one for last because it isn't what you're looking to accomplish.

I use Widgetsoid but I haven't tried 2, I set up a shortcut to BT settings on my widget so far. I'll try the new version and see if it works out. Thanks.

Prior to the upgrade last week, the widget would only turn bluetooth on or off. With the update last week it added the option to have it open up the bluetooth (or wifi) options. This isn't automatic, you have to choose for it to do this in the options.
I don't know maybe the phone won't automatically connect with two items at once. It's a hassle to connect each time, but after the initial connection everything runs smoothly.
I downloaded Widetoid 2 and loaded it, now I have an BT settings icon on my switcher.
I managed to figure it out without he use of a widget, under my bluetooth settings I selected my Jabra Clipper and unchecked phone audio. Now I can connect my Clipper as media audio and my BT headset at phone audio at the same time. Now when I get a call the audio switches from the Clipper to the BT headset.
Thanks for your help.
An amazing One click - Connect 2 Specific Bluetooth device for A2DP and Phone app:
Bluetooth Pair
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gnssoftworks.bluetoothpair
found it very useful for swapping bluetooth headphones between devices WITHOUT turning off Bluetooth entirely or going into the settings menu.
Example Use Case:
I have one Stereo Bluetooth headset with mic (two profiles - phone and A2DP audio)
I have one Android Phone and one Android Tablet.
Phone Profile is always connected to the Android Phone, but the A2DP audio changes depending on which device you want to listen to music from.
Normally, if you want to listen to audio from the Tablet when your headset's A2DP profile is connected to the phone, you'd have to first go to the settings menu of the phone, and disconnect the A2DP, leaving Phone Profile connected. Then go to the settings menu on your tablet and connect the A2DP only.
Then you'd have to do the opposite if you want to listen to audio from the Phone again.
Takes a long time.
With Bluetooth Pair, you can specifically connect or disconnect to a specific device and specific profile (phone / a2dp) by widgets.
So you won't have to turn off the bluetooth completely on one device just to allow your headset to connect another device. Nor do you need to go into settings anymore.
1.) Just tap on the A2DP device specific widget on the phone to disconnect, the A2DP Profile from the phone
2.) go to the Tablet, and tap on the A2DP device specific widget to connect the A2DP profile of the headset to the Tablet
Two taps!
You saved me From buying a new stereo!

Thanks a ton! This $1.50 app saved me from having to purchase a new stereo!
Just to let you know, this solved the exact problem I was having, over five years later! Thanks!

Headphone Connect - One Click Audio is a really simple app that let's you connect / disconnect to your desired bluetooth headset.
You find it in the play store if you search for "Headphone connect - one click audio"
I realize this is an old post, but I recently released an app called ShortTooth: create customized single-click shortcuts to connect to any paired Bluetooth device.
I use it to disconnect from my home stereo when I get into the car (parked close enough to still be paired), and reconnect to my home stereo when I get back.
You could use it to create two shortcuts:
* Toggle Jabra
* Toggle Moto
Or you can create two rows:
* Connect Jabra | Discconnect Jabra
* Connect Moto | Discconnect Moto
It has a free 14-day trial.

[Q] Parrot CK3100 wont pair

Hi
I am having problems pairing my GS3 with my incar bluetooth handsfree.
It recognises the handsfree, and says 'paired' but the handsfree doesnt beep like it should and the headset icon does not come up.
Any idea?
What worked for me
While I haven't tried to pair a sgs iii. I have successfully paired numerous ios and android devices and they all have the problem you describe. The following procedure (that I found on the web and is directly from Parrot support) should work:
Pairing can be difficult, and as such the droid is not currently
considered compatible with the evolution. The phone should pair; but may
not connect. What some of our customers have been able to do is to pair
with the Parrot, where the Droid reads "paired but not connected" then
clear the memory on the Parrot, whence it will announce "memory erasing
in progress please wait". Most steering wheel controls will allow you to
clear the memory with a combination of the Volume Keys Vol- followed by
Vol + 5 Times (-+-+-+-+-+). Or if you have the red/green keypad with the
dial in the center, simply press and hold the red/green button at the
same time. Normally when the Parrot is done it will announce PLEASE PAIR
DEVICE when its done, but these customers have reported that it instead
simply beeps indicating it connected to a phone, and sure enough the
Droid showed it was connected and paired.
Some further points to note:
(1) this worked for me even though my parrot firmware is very old (ie. I didn't need to upgrade the firmware)
(2) at times, I need to repeat the process multiple times to get it to work. be patient.
