I use the Plantronics M3000 Blue Tooth ear piece.
Recently I have been missing 1/3 calls because the Blue Tooth won't pick them up and if I try to answer them on the XDA it comes up with "Unable to answer the call".
I don't know if this problem is related to the BT device but I certainly didn't encounter it before I started using it.
Any ideas on what's causing the problems and how to resolve it?
Thank you.
Fully charged
First we have to do some error tracking
Is the BT headset fully charged,
Secondly when missing the call was headset bonded
Was Bluetooth enabled on XDA and BT haedset enabled
Then we can go to some more serious problem checking
Fully charged
Very good points. I think fully charged may be an issue, but not always.
I am confident with bonding and connectivity.
Points aside, can't I override the BT connection and just collect the call by pressing <Send> on the XDAII?
yes
Yes you can also accept the calls with the handset green button, and then still press the accept button on your bt headset to transfer to that afterwoods, and vica versa
So back to my original problem
On one out of three occasions I am physically unable to answer my phone with the green <send> button, it displays the message:
"Unable to answer call".
Does anyone know why this message appears? Is there a conflict with my BT earpiece or could there be another issue all together?
Thank you.
What BT headset are you using. I have both the Jabra BT200 & 250 and have had issues with both picking up call from the headset.
I use the same set up Plantronics M3000 and XDA II, I also get this issue.
However, If I don't get to the phone in time (when I don't have the BT headset on) I still get the issue, My guess is that I am trying to accept the call but the caller has ended........
unable to answer incomming calls !!
hi - on my xda 2 i get the same problem and i am not using blue tooth at all - the xda 2 occasionally wil not pick up the incoming call. having read other posts on this site i am under the impression that the phone aspect of the xda 2 is prone to glitches and is a weak point........... further information around this point is sought :?

Me too! Even without BT headset!
XDA2 phone is very poor
Me too, XDA2 phone is rubbish
:?
Very happy with my XDA II and works well with my SE HBH-60 BT headset.
I have had the "unable to answer call" message too. Without a BT headset. I was under the impression I got this message when the call had just switched through to voicemail but the XDAII hadn't noticed yet.

Originally, my opinion was that someone is calling my non-voice number. I have three mobile numbers : for voice, fax and data. I have the fax-number redirected to my mobile box (it's integrated messaging system where voice messages are delivered by mail as WAV files and faxes as PNG files). But the data-number isn't redirected. On my previous GSM phone, when someone called my data number, the message "data call - connect terminal by cable/IrDA" was displayed. So on XDA I thaught that "unable to answer call" message is displayed when someone dialed my data-number. But it wasn't true - he dialed my regular voice number, so it is a real serious bug !
Just to add to the record, I too have the problem of being unable to answer calls sometimes. This does not happen all the time though, every now and then but enough to be irritating. It's possible though I can't say for sure that pressing the 'answer' soft button rather than the green hardware button is more reliable as I've not had that problem with the 'answer' soft button.
maybe some of those issues are a result of some of the more exotic gsm stuff like
I have three mobile numbers

diamondjimxda2, I think your problem could be caused by something else.
I am - like you - with Vodafone - and I also use a BT headset (Jabra 200). Every few times I have the problem that I cannot answer incoming calls - bother with and w/o the headset.
For me it doesn't occur directly after a soft reset, but after a few hours of use. So far my best guess is a relation to some software and I currently suspect Pocket Informant being the source... at lest I noticed a few times that answering a call worked before I opened PI and didn't anymore when it is running.
Not that I now think PI is the problem, but something doesn't quite work together as it should...
By the way: my device information is
ROM version 1.03.00 USA
Radio Version 1.05.14
Ext ROM Version 1.03.43
Hi, all.
Hope someone can assist me. I'm using an XDA II that has been upgraded to 2.06 Windows Mobile 2003 SE.
I have enabled the Bluetooth Headset profile on my Today screen and calls will transfer over to my headset (SonyEricsson HBH-65).
My question is for the following scenarios:
1) The calls transfer over but sometimes the connection becomes lost while I'm still mid-way in the call. How do I instruct the XDA to transfer the call to my Headset again? Tried pressing the button on my HBH-65 but the call doesn't transfer.
2) Sometimes, I put on my headset but forgot to turn it on. When a call comes in, I realise my mistake and answer the call on my phone first but then I ask the other party to wait while I turn on my HBH-65. After turning it on, how do I transfer the existing call to my headset?
Hope someone can help with some advice. Thanks in advance
1) I currently use BlueTrek G2 and so far has got no probs at all.
2) The BT headset has to be running before the phone in call. For the BT signal it has to be sent right b4 the phone in call.
I guess that's how you can get ur headset running.
I've got that to my best. Good luck...
No problem with them...
i am using BHB-65 too, they are great ,man, i have no problem with them from the first time using.
1. When you want to connect to the headset, there's an icon near the phone icon, you touch on that , it will indicate the term to transfer the call back the headset or cut it out.
2. When you forgot turning on the BT headset, just turn it on and press "enabled the headset" (on the desktop, remember to "view the profile" in item "Today"), it will automatically transfer the call to the BT headset.
Wish you could do that.
Hi all,
is there any PC dialer to use on my PC when the XDAII is in the craddle activesynced ?? (something like Skypeout but that would use the activesyned xda II to call and receive calls).
I am especially interested in hearing someone calling me on my PC speakers...
Thank you !
I seem to have a problem with Nokia bluetooth headset answering second call.
When I am on the phone via headset and receive second call (by means of call waiting), if I press answer button, the call gets answered, only not via headset but on the phone.
Can anyone advise, if this is headset fault (inability to answer second call correctly) or phone config.
Hi! Something happened with my O2 Atom and nobody can hear me when I making a call while I can hear them perfectly. Can make audio notes - microphone is in working state. Have tried different providers as well as ROM-update. Still not working. Any ideas? Thanks!
Atom has 2 mic. One for recording located in front of the phone, next to the signal led. The other one uses for phone call only. Sure that your mic for phone call is bad, it is located at the bottom of the phone, you can see there is a small hole near the headphone jack.
I have the same problem
Yeah, I have the same problem with some calls
I have same problem too, i cant heard out/in-ing call. Anyone can help me to solve it??
I found my Atom Xda having the following condition:
When blue tooth off, no problem for voice incoming and outgoing.
When blue tooth on and connected with my wireless blue tooth ear piece, the hand set's mic become useless during outgoing call and must use the ear piece to communicate; but this is not affect receive the incoming calls, both incoming and outgoing voice working ok for incoming call.
