I am the happy owner of an iMATE PPC (XDA II), but will be "upgrading" to the new iMATE PDA2 (XDA IIi, 2020I) shortly (in May). One of the shortcomings of the original iMATE is that it does not support caller ID on a BT headset such as Jabra's BT800 or Sony Ericsson.
Can anyone tell me with certainty whether the XDA IIi, 2020i (or equivalent PDA2) supports caller ID on the Jabra BT800 without any modifications (ie, out of the box support)? I don't care if the name displays or not, as long as I can see a phone number or something.... The name would simply be a plus. I don't want to hassle with "upgrading" or "patching" the existing bluetooth, etc, etc... I just want to know if it will work as delivered.
Thanks in advance.

i have i mate pda2k
with jabra bt800
i can have the caller id but not the name.
PDA2
Hey Kevin-
Where are you getting your PDA2 in the US? I still have a T-Mob Phone Edition & need to upgrade ASAP. I see Expansys will be getting them.
Good question as I will be getting a BT headset after I get the PDA2.

I have the Sony Ericsson Akono 600 with the display and a XDAIII. I can get the number to appear in the LED but not the name...
Seems like all it might need is to tweak the bluetooth software to change the output to the display... any one out there that can take this on?

Scottyjchef (Scotty)...
I haven't received my unit yet. Expansys-USA.com is selling them for $809. Convergent Technologies is selling them for $799. ImpactWireless is selling them for $769. All claim to start shipping at the end of April, or first week of May.
I am going to place my order via Expansys since they seem to be the largest vendor. They're also the only one that will take a pre-order, and verify with you if you want the item when it arrives before charging your credit card. I am assuming I'll have a better chance of resolving any problems (if any arise) with them as well, but I might be entirely off-based on that assumption.
I'm still teetering on whether I should wait though... it's not always best to be the first kid on the block to have a new toy, and my iMATE (XDA II) is serving me fine... I just want caller ID on the headset, landscape, and WiFi. The 1.3MP camera is nice too, but from what I've seen/heard, it doesn't take fantastic pictures.

I have a QTEK 2020i and bought the Jabra 800, but no number and no name. so I am advising you my friend to search with me for a solution before buying it. Does any one know how?
Does it work at all?
Mohs...
Does your BT800 work at all with the 2020i? My BT800 does not answer calls with my original IMATE (running Pocket Bluetooth Tools 1.0.1.2). If I install Pocket Bluetooth Tools 1.1.0.0, it works, but there is a bug that prevents the IMATE from turning off, so it stays on all day (kills battery really quick!).
Is caller id the only problem you have with the 2020i and BT800?

I have tried the BT800, and Xlive. Xlive shows the name if it is in contacts but it is buggy.
http://www.expansys-usa.com/product.asp?code=117123 may work and I am ordering the HBH662 as well. I will let you know.

BT800 needs Hands Free profile. BT tools uses it's own DLL (driver) for the headset. Only Headset profile. It will take up to 9 seconds to answer a call with the BT800 and Headset profile.
Need to use 2.20 translated or 2005 OS to get A WORKING Hands Free profile.

Did you pair it under Hands Free or Headset profile?
I do not think I have a handfree profile, how can you do that?

If you have the 2020i (xda2i, Alpine) then you do have a handsfree profile, as your xda runs the Broadcom stack.
I've tried an xda2i with Jabra BT800 also and caller id works for viewing the number reliably if that is all you need. But no name.
As far as I know there is NO b/t headset on the market with fully working caller id (ie shows the name from your contacts). Which is a real shame
Mine does not show any numbers? I am really fed up of trying
Imate claims PDA2 will support Jabra BT800 Caller ID Feature
For what it's worth, from a 1-on-1 session with iMATE Customer Support:
You're now talking to Buffon from 'Club Advisors' The topic is : Not Provided
Buffon> Welcome to Club i-mate. My name is Buffon and I am a Club Advisor. What can I help you with?
curious> can you advise if the pda2 will support the caller id function on the jabra bt800 headset/
curious> hello?
curious> are you still there?
Buffon> ya
curious> did you receive my question?
Buffon> yes
Buffon> sure
Buffon> im glad to help u
Buffon> yes it support it
Buffon> it is working fine with it
curious> The caller idis fully supported? I have seen problems with the PDA2K. My IMATE PPC does NOT support caller id. Before I purchase the PDA2, it is imperative that caller id is fully supported by the Jabra BT800.
Buffon> ya
Buffon> i insure u it is supported at he PDA2
Conflicting results
Now this is interesting... IMATE says "YES", absolutely sure the PDA2 will support caller id on the Jabra BT800.
Now this is what Jabra is saying:
"Kevin,
Thank you for contacting JABRA North America.
We are not familiar with the Qtek 2020i, but the BT800 does not
support
caller id with the 02 XDA IIi and the Imate PDA 2.

I have the BT800 and the HBH662 and the X-live 128 mp3 player-BT phone.
Caller ID works on all of them with the PDA2. X-live will display the NAME too on the 2.20 translated on the Himalaya but it times out.. The 2.20 uses the MS stack.
On my new PDA2, with the Broadcomm stack, only caller ID works on the xlive, no name. Good news is it does not time out. Works fine.
I like the xlive because it can make phone calls using the little joy stick and selecting numbers. It is great to check voice mail too because you can select numbers while in the phone call to delete or do other menu choices.

Proof that the Jabra BT800 works on the I-Mate PDA2
I have proof that the Jabra BT800 works on the new I-mate PDA2.. It can also work for the XDAIIi if you install the patch from the Extended ROM from the PDA2! :wink: :shock:
I-mate fixed it for the Alpine!
Will it work for Qtek 9090????

1. Is there any way to let my BT haedset Blutrek G2 work beside BT SonyEricsson car kit HCB 30? I mean that even if I pared both on my Qtek2020, I can't decide wich of them to use on incoming or makeing a call, becouse just one of them will work (generally the first one pared).
2. How can I let my TOMTOM BT Receiver be recognized by other GPS SoftWare tomtom 3.03 apart?

Hi!
Recently I Bought a XDA-II and now i want to use it with my Sony Ericson HBH-15 bluetooth headset but XDA doent pair with it...
Kindly guide me in how to overcome with this problem or XDA doesnt support this pirticular models..
----
Sanjeev K Purohit
Had the same problem with my HBH-10, but found the solution.
You have to pair your HBH-15 with a Ericsson Phone, and then change the default passkey 0000 to a diffrent one, and then it should pair with your XDA II.
How to do so, check here
wormeyman.com/downloads/HBH10-R3B-EN.pdf
under 'changing the passkey'
A NEw Problem Now!!!
Thnx a lot bro!
But Now thr's a new problem..
Untill using MS bluetooth stack the call used to get transferred to HBH-15 but since I've installed Widdcom Bluetooth stach The widcom can pair with HBH but cant connect..
When I turn it Off and turn On MS bluetooth It transfers the call occasionally may once in five times...
Isnt thr a sure shot way(kinda some tool that will transfer the call to headset straight away...
Regards
Sanjeev :arrow:
yeah, but that's still the problem that no one got the Widcomm stack working a real 100% reliable. I know tha MS BT sucks because of the many missing profiles, and even worth it's not very 'stable' on my Magician, but still the best option. Sorry mate, but you probably have to live with it the way it is.
I just bought the Motorola HT820 yesterday. I traded in my Sony Ericsson HBH610 which was good in windy conditions but couldn't redial with my K-Jam.
The Motorola turnes out to be good in Windy conditions too. Say goodbye to the Jabra 250 :lol:
Of course the redial works on the Motorola. Haven't tried the voice dailing yet.
But now for the big Q:
How do I get it to work to hear the audio from my K-Jam. This is of course why I bought it. Not to look geeky :wink:
It just doesn't seem to work.
Does anybody nows if the bluetooth stack from the k-jam/qtek 9100 and other variations has the audio profile?
Wouter
I've been searchi9ng the internet for the a2dp support but what I read at HowardForums and Geek.com there is currently no support for the adio profile on the k-jam/qtek 9100.
Wouter
I hope there will be an a2dp profile soon too.

Hi E. Gold,
Thanks for the tip but I'm afraid it won't work on the K-Jam because it is a patch for the Widcom stack and won't work with the Microsoft stack.
Too bad
I saw a post from somebody on xdadevelopers who is making an file for all the Microsoft stacks. He was one week ago, 70 % finished. I guess I wait for that one to be on the safe side. :wink:
Wouter
Please tell us when it is finish.
A workaround....
Thanks to Sarcasmsra who posted a little tool at PdaPhoneHome.com (Here: http://www.pdaphonehome.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=54951&perpage=20&pagenumber=1)
there is now a way to have at least mono audio on my Motorola Stereo headset.
It is not perfect :wink: but at least it is a step in the right direction! 8)

hello,
Any new developments since last year? I hv also bought K-Jam and HT820 and found out only phone works not WMP.

Wondering what people's opinions are of the BT800 with the Wizard...
does it work well ?
do you have Caller ID ?
is there any way to add a neck strap to it ?
is the caller's name scrambled ?
Thanks !
I have a BT800. It works fine with my Wizard, My Universal and my Himilaya (which has WM5 on it).
Caller ID only displays the number rather than the name but a fix (to microsofts bluetooth stack) is rumoured to be in the pipeline!
I can't see how you'd add a neck strap other than with a bit of a bodge!
Thanks for the comments !
Hope the BT stack upgrade helps...
Has anyone one on here got one of these?
I've gone full circle from the jam->Wizard->Universal and then got myself a simple phone that i've had the last few months due to work. Now, out of all three of those phones, the jam for me had the best form factor and feel out of them all, wizard was too fat and plasticy.
Anyway, just seen on t-mobile uk site the compact II, my main questions is, does anyone know if any bluetooth headphones will work for this for music? not sure of the BT stack etc etc on this device (HTC charmer?). So if anyones got the same device with Bluetooth headphones working let me know!!
Also if anyone has them working *well* on the jam let me know! What mode of headphones etc etc
thanks all
I'm not sure about this because a friend has one and it has the original WM5 release on it (i.e. not AKU2) and that's known not to support A2DP (the BT profile for stereo headphones) but what I don't know is if T-Mobile have now started shipping the Compct II with AKU2.
Maybe someone knows different, please tell.
For an explanation of what AKU2 is, look in the Wizard and Prophet forums.
cheers,failing that not sure wich device to go for....need it to work with some BT headphones!!
i've red this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33532&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=675
but want it working perfectly![/url]
what's your m600 like paul? I presume this will have A2DP etc? reason i ask is t-mobile are doing the compact 2 for free with co pilot nav and gps receiver + unlimited data usage for £27.50 a month, so i'm very tempted, only problem being i don't know if it will work with BT headphones! Failing this i might go for the exec (again) as i'm sure that'll work!! Just the deal is so good it's almost rude to say no!
I've got the mdac2 and think it's great. I've updated it with the T-mobile AKU2 update which works fine, giving push email.
I haven't tried any BT headphones but have read that once you have the AKU2 update there is a way of enabling A2DP by adding drivers or something like that. I think it was regarding the Wizard but much of the Wizard system is the same as the Charmer.
if anyone can confirm that there is a cab.file or something like that with a2dp on then i'll be going for this i think then!! is your aku2 rom a tmobile one?
yes. it's from the official t-mobile download site. was made available in June.
great cheers, they may be shipping with this rom now so best check. Now all i need to find out is if the a2dp file that people use on the wizard will work on this!

The M600 is great and yes, it has AKU2. I have not tried BT headphones but if you look in the prophet forum there will be people there who have.
The T-Mobile deal is a good one - that's the deal my co-worker has taken and he's really happy with it.

Yes it does support a2dp and the cab file is available somewhere on this forum you will have to do a search, sorry im not a regular so it will be difficult for me to find anything however I have a mda compact ii and the a2dp works! Should go for the offer, i also have the co-pilot 6 which youve mentioned and its a great deal.
All the best
