Something I observed when using Magician with SE HBH-662

Hi all
I just got my SonyEricssion HBH-662 headset and I observed that if I press the "Call handling" button when the headset is not in a call, my magician will emit a beep, as if a button have been pressed, but nothing happens after that.
This makes me think that maybe the press of the button was received by the magician, but it doesn't know what to do with it and ignored it. Anyone have any suggestions on how to explore this further? Maybe this can lead to the possibility of activating MS Voice Command through this button???
Thanks

ps. I am using QTek 1.12.00 WWE (with MKS bigrom modification) rom

Hi,
I have HBH-660. There is a tone if I press the button for about 2 second. And if I continue press the button it will shut off.
I don't think HBH-660 can be used for Microsoft Voice Command with O2 mini
Sorry to let you know that.

I mean HBH-660 and HBH 662. Both almost equal in the specs.

Hi Arto
My HBH-662 beeps after pressing the button for 2 seconds too. But not only does my HBH-662 beeps, but my Magician beeps also in response to the button press. To me, that seems like the Magician gets the button press, (because the Magician beeps), but just don't know what to do with it. So if we could some how map that press to activate voice command, then it will be the first headset to be able to do so with the Magician (I hope)....
Yes, the HBH-660 is similiar to HBH-662, but HBH-662 uses Bluetooth v1.2, while HBH-660 uses v1.1. The Magician uses v1.2. I don't know if this make a difference though.

My HBH-660 also behave the same. I think o2 mini just try to see whether HBH-660 connected via Bluetooth or not connected.
If HBH-662 capable of doing microsoft voice command, I'll buy it no matter if the price 2 or 3 times HBH-660. But I think it is not. Others like Motorola HS-850 also have 1.2 bt spec. But nobody have it work with voice command.

Does HBH-662 display caller's name?
Hi guys,
I'm about to sell my Jabra BT800, because it's only able to display caller's phone number, not name, while using it with Magician. I also have ROM & radio 1.11 WWE.
Could Sony Ericsson HBH-662 solve my problem? Does it display caller's name? Any tweaking or ROM upgrading required to get this working?
Thank you in advance for your answers.

As I said in the other thread, IMO the way forward for VC BT Activation on the jam is to find out what Eten did to the M500 to get it working.....

Re: Does HBH-662 display caller's name?
I have the same hardware/firmware and am using HBH-662. It shows only phone number and no name. So don't need to sell your BT800.
As for the beep - if I press briefly on my HBH-662, my i-Mate Jam will respond by a beep. Usually after this the headset symbol will show up (usually disappears after a while).

HBH-660 display inconsistant
My HBH-660 displays caller-ID or caller name inconsistently. Sometime it is caller number, and sometimes it is caller name. Is there any reason to that? Can;t seem to find out the cause for displaying only the caller number and not caller name....

i have the hbh-30 and when i press the button on the headset it keeps beeping ever second or so and keeps doing that, the headset symbol pops up on my jam and it keeps beeping. to stop it i have to press and hold the button on my headset and it off.
if you guys are having issues with number & contact showing up, why dont you try the bluesoil stack?

Try this:

Depends how you define 'works'. It passes the number across to the headset, but not the name in your Contacts.

Thanks for the quick reply. I was hoping it would pass the name
Anyone know if the Sony Ericsson HBH-662 does?

Bt800 and XDA IIi
I also experience the following problem with my iMATE PDA2 (XDA IIi) and BT800:
Call 1: Number is 1-111-111. Shows up properly on BT800. Call is not answered (missed call).
Call 2: Number is blocked (caller ID blocked). BT800 shows the number from Call 1.
If Call 1 had been answered, Call 2 would work correctly. Seems to be a problem with missed calls.
The problem could be related to the BT800 and not the PDA itself. No one has chimed in with an answer to my posts, so I don't have a solution.
Just FYI...

I believe there is no solution on the market for any phone and b/t headset combination that will correctly pass the name across. I'd love to be proved wrong though :?:

JasJar and Sonyericsson HBH-662

Hi Guys,
I have an I-mate JasJar and a Sonyericsson hbh-662. Both of them get along better than chandler and joey, except for the caller ID function. When a call comes in, immediately the number of the person calling is displayed but not the name. Even if the person calling is a saved contact, it still shows only the number.
Do you guys have any other workaround?
Other than that, i can voice dial using BT headset without even touching my phone, call clarity is superb and range is very good. Overall, a great headset. Would recommend it in a heartbeat.
UD.

I have a JasJar with a HBH 660 and it works the same: caller id number but not the name, nither if is on the SIM card.
I was thinking it would work with 662 which is bluetooth 1.2 complaint.
Are we missing some settings?Guido

I have read in a forum on Exapansys that on a Imate Jam it shows the name if you have MS VOice COmmand 1.5 installed.
Have you try it?

That reminds me, does the HBH-662 have the "noise cancellation" feature? Its known as DSP. does the 662 support it?
UD.

Hmmm, are you sure about that? Can you give me a link to that page? I highly doubt if that is possible, but if you say so, i wouldnt mind looking into it.
UD.

I have both a BT800 and an HBH660, both of which have a disply and both of which only display the number when used with the JasJar.
Both display the contact name when connected to me SE P910i.
I have the same problem with my C550 too. It seems that the MS bluetooth stack doesn't send the caller Id data when in hands free mode.
*Posted from my JasJar*

here is the link.

Let me know if with ms voice command the caller name appear.
I am very interested too.

For some odd reason, i could not get it to install on my JASJAR, activesync issues i suppose.
Can one of you install it on the JASJAR and give us feedback?
UD.

I have VoiceCommand v1.5 installed and neither my BT800 nor my HBH-660 display the caller name.

That sucks!!!
Which headset do you prefer between the both rilot and why?
UD.

I like both of them for differnet reasons. I use the both all the time. The BT800 on my JasJar and the HBH-660 on my C550.
The HBH-660 is small, light and stylish. More comfortable too, but the battery life is poor compared with the BT800. It also seems to drop calls more frequently. If only the JasJar and C550 could send the caller ID data they would be perfect. Not the fault of the headsets though.
All in all, I prefer the BT800 but both headsets are excellent.

Thanks for the info.
I had used the BT800 for a while before but i always had trouble getting it on my ear and pressing the buttons to answer/reject a call also was rather uncomfortable. With the HBH-662, i can do everything with one button and its sits very well on the ear, so i prefer this
Also, the BT800 seems to crackle with the JASJAR, i dont know why. I have personally experienced this, and that too when the device was right next to me. The HBH-662 on the other hand has superb audio quality, very happy over all.
Thanks again for your observations,
UD.

same problem with HBH-200 from SE...

Qtek Test Rom and Jabra BT-800 Caller ID Functionality?

Hey guys,
I was wondering whether the Qtek test rom that can be found here:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wizard/Roms/Qtek/RUU_Prodigy_2080701_101_11310_Qtek_WWE_Test.exe
has changed the BT stack in the wizard to allow the caller id functionality of the Jabra BT-800 to become usable, sending both NAME and number (instead of number only) to the BT headset. I know that there is a taiwanese headset with a caller ID LCD readout as well, so it might work on this one as well.
If anyone has tried, please let me know. I was hoping that the A2DP in the test rom would add this functionality. Thanks to everyone on this great forum!

Caller ID disappears

Hi,
I have upgraded my BT800 with firmware v32 and installed jetware v1.11. Now my MDA Pro sends the caller id to BT800 but the text disappears from the LCD screen in a few seconds and what remains on the LCD screen is the empty first row and the second row with YES and NO. Anybody with the same problem? Any solution?
Also, I must have changed some config settings either in BT800 or in my MDA pro because I can hear the phone ring only in BT800 but not from the device. If BT800 is switched off the ring comes from the device. Can you help?
:shock:
Thanks

Sorry, let me discontinue this topic and direct you to this one:
Now the BT headset can show the Caller ID Name!
