Hi , i was wondering if there is any way to have my XDA II , AUTOPICK Calls and automatically enable the HANDFREE speaker.
This will be great when you are driving or busy doing something else and the phone is away from you.
Yep, under the options of telephone, automatic answer without pressing a button afte x rings
Set-up, Telefoon, More (translated from German, so it could be a bit different)
Yes the option is there but it doesn't work. It doesn't pickup the phone automatically.
Have tried it with or without a BT headset but both with no result.

Hello
I have an XDAIIi and am using skype. Ive found that skype outputs to the main pda speaker, not the phone speaeker, and the quality is not a good as the phone one and of course everyone can hear your conversation.
Is there anything I can do or do we have to wait for skype to support this (if they even can?)
Are there any other applications that manage to use the phone speaker?
Thanks for any feedback
Brian
Hi Brian,
I have a Skype with my XDA2i as well & if someone calls me, my XDA's earpiece was the default. If I want to use my XDA's speakerphone (handsfree or where everybody can hear the caller), all I did was to press & hold the "call" button (they also call this as "send" button, the one you press when you answer a phone call) for around 3 seconds. If I want to deactivate the speakerphone, I press the same button for about 3 seconds.
Hold & pressing "call" button for about 3 seconds will activate/deactivate speakerphone. If you still have the XDA2i user manual, kindly check page 48.
I hope this will help you.

you mean your skype can actually work with the earpiece or you mean normal telephone call works by default with the earpiece?
Vmirage & Brian,
I'm so sorry & it was my mistake. I did not realize what I'm typing a while ago. No, you cannot use XDA2i earpiece while on call, the default is the speakerphone (PDA's speaker). Instead, I use my XDA's earphone to have a privacy while on Skype's voice call.
I got mixed up with a normal call & the Skype's voice call.
Again, my apologies.

Have you tried this?
From the authors website
Please, don't even try to run it on other PDAs - it's absolutely pointless

So no I didn't bother
try your BT headset, as IIi support audio gateway. just press the answer button on your BT headset & the sound will be rerouted.
unfortunatly I don't have a headset and really just want to use the phone as normal
I use Dopod M700 and Handfree bluetooth Sony ericsson HBH-DS-970, I have problem about handfree.
After I compaired such devices, I could listen MP3 by DS-970 through WMP. It's worked and give qaulity sound! But, when I used DS970 as handfree/small talk, It's not worked. I could not answer/call by using DS-970. When incoming call while I listen MP3, WMP stopped but I could not recieved call through DS-970, I must recieved call by M700 only.
How should I do? Help me pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
PS : I used official rom and did not install any program.
Go in Comm Mgr BT settings and refresh your DS970 services and ck: handsfree and wireless stereo, save. See if the phone part works.
And if that doesn't work, maybe since the DS970 can only be paired with one phone, it needs to be re-set - then re-paired. I think the instructions are on page 10...yep, found my book: Turn off headset, then press and hold the on/off for 5 secs - you will hear a long beep. Now it is ready to be paired. Next: press & hold the on/off and call handling button simultaneously for 5 secs. The headset will turn off.
When I turn on BT, I find it best just to go into BT devices and refresh the services on the DS970. It seems to behave better...
Thank you very much. I made follow your advise. It's almost ok, but when incoming call, no ringtone in both M700 and DS-970 but it show number and contact. In M700 vibrated only and no ringtone in both M700 and DS-970.
May M700 did not work with DS-970???
Any suggestion. Thank you.
Hello
I've similar problem, i can hear songs etc... i even hear the ring when somebody calls on my DS-970, but when i try to accept the call using DS-970, it is not being accepted, and if press the answer button again, the bluetooth gets disconnected and the phone starts ringing.
Not sure what's causing it.
I'm using O2 Exec with the latest rom.
Please guide
Greets
Hello
No problem i just found the solution to it:
Here's what I did:
* I deleted the HBH-DS970 from the list of BlueTooth devices
* Then I bonded them again (by setting the the little switch on the headset to the left and pressing the power button for about 5 seconds after it had powered on
* Now I move the switch over to the right
Now I can listen to music and when I have an incomming call, I get a short "beep", and I just press the mic button to answer. Then the music pauses, and resumes when I hang up.

It happened to me when I tried DS970 at the SE shop today. Saddly that I was going to buy it
I am using Atom Life
Hello there,
has anyone an idea how to realize this:
blackstone is in standby - bluetooth is activated - bluetooth headset is on - both connected - call comes in - I take the call with the bt-headset - talk - I end the call with the bt-headset - blackstone remains on until the adjusted time for standby is reached
but I would like the blackstone switch into standby mode immediately after ending the call
is this possible ?

This needs addressed - sleep after a call during headset mode
In headset mode the phone does not go into sleep mode or power off automatically after a call. This is a major issue for those of us who leave the phone in the pocket in the car or when using bluetooth headsets. I have finished calls recently and then 5 or 10 mins later my phone would connect to someone random in the phonebook whilst driving which is quite embarrassing "I didnt call you" - "yes you did"!!
In the meantime I am using constant device lock but this is a clumsy solution for what surely MUST be a common problem. Can anyone else not help us out and try to get the device to sleep after a call during headset mode? I would be so grateful for a useful solution that doesnt involve a constant device lock that I dont really need!
Cheers
I'm having the same problem also....
The list grows - surely there must be others out there with the same problem. We should try and get out heads together to crack this one!

ooch aye the noo ...
obviously NOT ... which makes me wonder ... as for me this is a main issue
pimpin' seems to be more important than functionality ... huh?
i guess i will write to htc and see what they r saying
will post answers here

Sounds good man, keep up posted. Its a major issue for me too!
ok folks .. here is the very annoying answer i got from htc support
You recently wrote us about an issue that you have encountered with your HTC Touch HD. There is only one way to instantly set the device into standby mode: please press quickly the power on/off.
what shall i say ... THAT'S CRAP !!!
and i'm still thinking that there must be a workaround ... redefining the buttons or something like that ... any ideas from the specialists in here ?
c'mon guys - help us out here

that's really strange...just tested it.
connection htc/jabra bluetooth.
htc device lock ON.
an incoming call arrives, pick up the call via bt-headset. end the call via bt-headset. phone is immediately locked again (htc own device lock), display is on. after 1 minute also the display turns off.
or do you mean something completely different?
Same here and it feels retarted.
Ooe of the major purposes of a bluetooth headset is to avoid contact with the device. So having to take out the phone or handle it (in a car/office whatever) after a BT call is rediculous.
BT headset drops call
I am not sure if I should pose my questions here but my Jabra BT headset is connected to my Blackstone on standby mode via BT. However, when an incoming call comes, the BT headset does not get the call but is transfered to the HTC handset instead. I have no problems making outgoing calls on the Jabra headset. It's frustrating when I am driving... could anyone tell me how to remedy this?
Thanks in advance.
end call via BT into standby works with LockMeLite
hello there,
with LockMeLite http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=478606 and my samsung wep250 bt-headset
it works
this headset is non-a2dp-capable
dunno if an a2dp capable headset will work, but will test is (next week)

I have tried flashing newer fancy roms and tried various lockers but no applications are intuitive enough to fix this simple fault. When making a call in 'headset mode' the fast sleep mode prevents accidental presses during a call. Unfortunately when the call is ended via handsfree/car kit/recipient, the phone wakes back up to life.
Any locker I have used is active indiscriminantly when pressing the power on button to wake the device from sleep. I have tried lockmelite, hd tweak for inbuilt MS lock, pocketshield and another locker however none have the function to only lock the device whilst in headset mode and after a call has ended. This is a request to developers, expert cooks and modifiers please can anyone help us out?
Thanks a million
Check this, it can do the trick...
h..p://www.pocketshield.net/default.htm
S2u2 V2.04 workes fineas you needs, even look during a call (gives black screen)
I'll do a try
As I have the same request/problem I'll try the following with the help of AGEProfile.
- I create a profile actived when the headphone is connected, when this profile is activated it launches a program named MySuspend so my phone is suspended.
- I create another profile activated when the headphone is connected and there is a call in progress, this profile does nothing but it exists (only)
So when my phone goes connected with the headset (BT) it goes suspended.
When I receive a call it wakeup as normal and the profile is switched to the second one (but does nothing)
When the call finishes, the first profile is activated again and the phone goes suspended.
That's all (and it should work, I just made the setup for that).
Regards,
P.S. sorry for my english because it's not my language.
I also have this same question. After ending the call the screen stays unlocked and will inadvertently call a number sometimes.
I tried
Yes I made a try yesterday evening in real conditions and it work very well
So I'm very happy
I forgot to mention that I also use the Inesoft to have the screen locked when one call come in.
Hope this will be useful for you too
Regards,
I want to mention this problem though i know it has been questioned previously with no answer.
When during a call you raise the bluetooth headset volume then the phone doesnt remember the setting and you have to raise the volume after the next call and again and again.
Very annoying!!Also raising the bt headset volume then the volume control opens and the ringer sound is raised too and i need to lower it after each call!!
Any solution on this?
Thanks!!
solved it
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\ShellOverrides]
"SavedInCallVolume"=dword:FFFFFF
This key seems to save the in call volume.
Set to FFFFFF for maximum in call bt headset volume.SOFT RESET.
Works for me, now in each call the bluetooth in call voice is set to max and i dont have to raise it any more.
When for any reason the volume goes down again, click the volume button in the earphone, just to stimulate it, set your prefferred settings for ring volume etc and then soft reset and the high earphone volume is back.
It is not a complete solution, of course, but it is better than having to raise and low the volumes after each call.
Up to now there is not a better solution to this problem.
If someone knows a better registry setting or tip solution he can post it.
Another problem also is that sometimes the last call button is accidentally pushed in the bluetooth earphone and the last call is activated.
I will try to find the setting that disables last call through bluetooth if there is any.
has anyone else tried this? I have this problem with the t-mous version of the hd2.

if this works you are a life saver I have had this problem for over 3 months now with no answer I will give it a try and answer back!
edit: it works!!!
I've just tried this, and get the following error:
Error : System.FormatException: FormatException at System.Number.ParseUInt32() at System.UInt32.Parse() at RegeditService.RegeditResponse.Send() at httpserv.Services.Service.sendResponse() at RegeditService.RegeditService.Exec() at httpserv.HttpServerWorker.run()
Any ideas?
i entered the value as dec...with total commander you can change in hex also
with this cab that I found here you can restore the original wm sound manager and the HD2 'remembers' the sound volume and keeps it at the highest level even with a bt headset!

I know it has been sometime to post in this thread, but I have found a work around.
Go to the market and download and instal the app 'Volume Locker' - its free. Make sure you do not activate it until you adjust the 'in-call bluetooth volume' level to a comfortable level (i usually call me wife, and then adjust the level while on the phone with her). Then before you end the call, go into the app 'Volume Locker' and activate it. Make sure you uncheck the box 'Allow Apps To Override'.
Now, everytime you call out using your bluetooth headset - it will remember your 'in-call bluetooth volume' setting.
I hope this works!

There is no "in call volume" setting in volume locker. Which box did you check in order to activate the in call volume?
Hi friends,
I've just discovered an issue with my A5 2016, last firmware (issue was present before upgrade).
When you make a call, and immediately after you enable handfree, there is no sound coming from the bottom speaker during the connection phase (bip bip ...), only after your correspondant has answered.
If you enable handfree after the first connection tone has arrived (the first bip ...), it works normally.
Someone having this issue too ?
I've just retested, and the issue is worst than expected : when I activate handfree immediately, in some cases I have no sound out of speakers, neither up one nor bottom one, even after my correspondant has answered ...
I have to disable handfree to have sound back ...
Yeah, I can confirm.
Must be software related, thus.
I don't remember having such an issue out of the box, so I guess this is some king of regression in a recent firmware.
Found a workaround : in "call settings", "call alert", if I check "connection tone" I've got sound back as it should.
PS : Not sure of options names, I have a french phone.
Also if you do it twice (aloud on/off, aloud on) you get sound as well.
