Now the BT headset can show the Caller ID Name!

Found this link from a post in Wizard section yesterday:
http://www.jetwaremobile.com/index.htm
As the doc says this extension has a SIM access profile, I tried this BT extension on my Universal and a Bluetooth Headset SE HBH-662 that has a Caller ID screen. With this BT extension, now the BT headset can show the Caller ID Name IF the contact name and number exists in the SIM card.
However, it will not show any caller name if the contact only exists in Outlook Contacts.
My test also shows, the number stored in the SIM card has to be exactly the same with one sent over by the operator, otherwise it will not show the caller name. Ex. if the operator sends over the caller number as 171xxxxxx and the number stored in the SIM is 71xxxxxxxx then it will not work. Same thing if the number stored in the SIM is +171xxxxxxx and the operator sends the number 1713xxxxxx then it wil not work as well.
I kind of like to use the format +171xxxxxxxx as this is the international format.
Anyway, this is great, as most people have been waiting for this function to work out of their caller ID BT headset. Now, if we can find out how to make it work to access the Outlook Contact, then its perfect...

Can you report back on your experiences with this? I'm reluctant to install it unless it's proved to work and be reliable with my Jabra BT800.

Hi guys !
I'm just trying it in my 9000 with Jabra BT 800
In the site linked by lie_ui I read:
Configuration
The JETware Hands-free Extension allows control of the phonebook and messaging information that is provided to Hands-free devices. To configure these options run the Hands-free Config application which is installed in the Bluetooth Options folder in your start menu.
I don't find any new icon or service and i can't see the caller number
Have you tried this application ?
:wink:

I believe in Jwright's Modified ROM there is an application called "SIM Access" that allows this. I was not able to try it because I don't have a headset with caller name capability. I forgot to copy the "BT SIM Access" application, but already tried it on the latest QTEK ROM a month ago and the application worked fine.

Thanks cktlcmd
Now i search for "Sim Access" in the forum
I keep you update :wink:

If you go to Start Menu\programs you'll find the Bluetooth options folder. By the way, don't forget to soft reset first.
I've tried with Parrot CK3100 and now I have the battery and network signal strenght status as well as network name. I'm expecting someone to try with BT800 and to report it.

i've tried out the software i must say i'm impressed that it actually displaying caller's name. however my main problem now is my i cant activate voice dial now. before the software if i was to push the button the headset voice dialin would kick in. but after installin it, caller id works but the voice dialings malfunction. is anyone else having this problem as well?

Yes, same happens to me.
I have the HBH-662, after installing the software the button on my headset does nothing when pushed, unless it is pushed for answering a call, although the name gets displayed when getting a call, provided that the name is on the SIM card.
The other bad thing about it is, if the name is NOT in the sim, it does not display the number, it displays "Unknown" on the headset!
Good step in the right direction though, now it only needs a few tweaks!
Cheers

on my bt800 don´t show the name of the caller

Try checking your "Notifiaction Que". There should only be one sddaemon file. If there is a duplicate then delete it. I use MemMaid for this.

please give me a hand to resolve this problem with vocal dialing.

As I mentioned above, the last time I had a problem with voice dialing was when a duplicated "Notification Que": sddaemon file to be exact, was present. Just delete the duplicated sddaemon file, soft reset, and pair your BT headset again. I used MemMaid's Notification Que to clear duplicated files. I hope this is clear enough.

ok i'll test your suggest....thank you.
excuse me for bad english, i don't speak well this language!
i'm italian

nothing..
not vocal dialing

BT extention
I have another problem in addition to the voice dial problem...... whenever I receive a call from soneone who is using a service provider other than my service provider the device hangs and I have to soft rest the device provided that all the contacts are stored in my SIM card.

Great achievement indeed!!! A first step into a long waited direction
However decided to uninstall it from my Universal, waiting for a new release.
In fact some improvements are required to make it really useful.
I've tried it with my Jabra BT800.
A few issues that I've noticed,
Name displayed, only if:
[list:cca8e10c8e]
Contact present into SIM card.
Outlook phonebook not being used (at least with BT800) despite announced as a feature.
In order for the correspondent name to be displayed, number must be stored into Contacts, exactly as sent by the Operator.
- Some operators do not send the '+CountryCode'.
- This may originate different behaviours for instance depending if user is at Roaming or not.
- Some sort of algorithm would be welcomed to add some "intelligence" here.
[*]If received phone number is not present into SIM card, or not exactly with the same format, 'Unknown' is displayed even in the event of a number being sent... :shock:
The number received should be displayed at these circumstances.
[*]Whenever a Contact name gets displayed, only its first 8 characters are shown.
Much better if complete name contained at Contact, would scroll continuously. :idea:
[*]Voice Speed Dial not working, if JETware Mobile Software is installed.
This is a must, to be solved![/list:cca8e10c8e]
Eagerly waiting for a next release

I agree with the summary listed above. As I listed already in the very beginning of this posting what I found. Yes, its also true that Voice Dialing is not longer working once this app is installed. I did not have Voice Dialing enabled indeed, I tweak the registry so that on the push of the button on the BT headset, it will turn on the BT headset to accept any sound from the PDA instead (I use this for VoIP application).
And now this is not longer working, so similar synthom with the Voice Dialing app.
Once last thing, I cannot uninstall this app.
So for those that have not tried it yet but insterested to try, I would recommend not to try it, just read what we have found so far here, and do not need to repeat the same experience.
Hopefully those guys who write this app read this posting as well and will make the fix.

Not to rain on anyone's parade, but my JAM with its lowly Windows 2003 Mobile SE has been showing the contact name if it exists on the SIM without any modifications on my SE HBH-662.
I made this observation about a year ago on HoFo and six or so months ago right here on XDA-Dev.
This is interesting to say the least.

cant transfer with bluetooth

Sorry if this has been asked but i could not find it through search.
If i try to transfer file or picture or ringtone to another phone i dont have beam by bluetooth.
The manual says right click then beam file but this only opens infra red screen.
I dont seem to have bluetooth for transfering but i can connect to other devices and use hands free in car no problem.
Any ideas?
Clive

You need to edit the registry to enable OBEX transfer:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=289941#289941

it still doesnt work
even with that registry tweak, it won't show any options to transfer files. any other solution?

how do you see registry
cant find registry how do i get into it to edit it
clive

I found out that that reg tweak does the same as in Start-Settings-Connections-Beam. Tick the box receive all incoming beams and the setting in the registry switches from 0 to 1. I do not advise anyone to change it to a 1 in the registry, since that means that your infrared port is also active all the time, which is battery consuming.
For sending a file, turn on bluetooth and tap and hold the file in File Explorer. Than select beam file. It will start with looking for infrared ports but after it finds none, it will automatically continue to look for bluetooth connections. it will then ask the other device to accept the connection and start sending. For receiving a file, you have to tick "accept all incoming beams" in the settings-connections menu as well.
Concluding: there is no beam by bluetooth menu, it is the same menu that the infrared connection uses. It is somewhat tiresome that it starts with IRdA first, perhaps a reg hack can change that, but I don't use it often enough to find out.

looks correct
hmm !
seems to be ok i tried this and it transfered files i hid my nokia in the draw but it found it immediately on the infrared screen seems to be saying it is sending by infrared but i thought that would not work if they were lined up.
Will try with nokia in another romm then will be convinced it is sending by bluetooth
thanks for your help
clive

You're welcome. It is not very clever design, hiding the BT interface in the infrared beam menu, but it does work! Be sure it is sending by BT, for infrared there has to be a line of sight connection, so putting your Nokia in a drawer rules out infrared.

Transfer via Bluetooth

Hi,
I have this annoying problem with my Prophet. I cannot transmit or receive files through bluetooth. I thought it is a WM 5 thing, but it works on my friends smartphone and dell PDA.
Did i do the ROM upgrade incorrectly, or is this inline with the patch of bad luck that i am getting with my prophet?
Cheers,
Oz.

Hi
Go to settings>connections>beam and make sure its ticked to "recieve all incoming beams"
To send files just search them using the provided file explorer, tap and hold and then select "beam file"
IT will then search for nearby BT devices. Click tap to send.
You can beam to loads of ppl at once as well, so thats cool.
The one thing I cant work out as of yet is how to change my default recieve directory from My Documents. I want to recieve files on my storage card *grrr* but I guess it will ahve to do for now.

Beaming a file searches INFRARED ports nearby as far as i know.
To send files via bluetooth i (try to) use RESCO EXPLORER which has "send file to bluetooth recipient" command but i've never succeeded. The transfer windows opens but closes suddenly. Even with the desktop set to receive file via bt tray icon.
Any clue?

I only tried this once but it worked fine (and it's odd that it did).
I selected "beam file" from the built in explorer while BT was open and another device with open BT was near by. It opened the usual dialog for IR, but then a second line appeared, the BT device (which had no IR port) was detected and I successfully transferred the file.
Odd, that BT doesn't have a separate interface, but if it works, it works...

Oh yes. It works via BT by beaming from File Explorer. I succeded to send a file to my PC at last. Thanx for the trick...
However the PC must absolutely set to RECEIVE FILE via BT tray icon even though its bluetooth is active.

What happened to SEND VIA BLUETOOTH?

I have been a pocketpc windows CE user for years and I loved the "send via bluetooth" and "send via email" options whenever I pressed and held on a file or a selection.
What happened to those?
How do you email 63 pictures from your phone?

i think its called beaming now. beam through bluetooth.

Ok I go to:
File Explorer
Press and hold on a file name
Select Beam File
"To beam, select a device.
Searching
NO RESPONSE.

Here is funny part!
I select more than one file and the SEND AND BEAM both go GREY!
Send...
Beam File...

maybe u have to do it one at a time
also, the BT device that its going to has to be on and ready to accept BT files before you can even see the device when searching. some devices have to be configured also.

If you got a Commanager with a Beam button it has to be enabeld to. Then you´ll find other BT-Devices

Thanks everyone

BEAM?
The wing doesn't have IR, does it?

no but BT works for me only with Beam enabled...

Basically BT took over infrared when you refer to beam.

That is correct, the Beam... feature actually uses bluetooth. The problem is that is does not show your paired devices or even the device names around you. So if I have 10 bluetooth phones around me and I want to send a picture to my friend sitting next to me, I may end up sending it to a stranger (90% chance)

u can see who send to
as long as the recipient has their name in their owner information on thier phone, it will show thier name on the list... you just have to wait a few more seconds before it shows on the list... i send files from my mda to wing and it shows unknown device first, and then a few seconds later it shows the name of the device

What does beam mean?

Guys can someone explain me please what does the function under "connections" beam mean? What is the difference between checking and unchecking the option "Receive all incoming beams"?

I believe it's for WM phones and pda's that have ir sensors on them, so you could point one phone at another and transfer a file. I don't think the Touch HD has one; that screen is just part of the WM OS.

Read your manual.
Beam is a method of sending/receiving info like contacts between phones
Disabling 'Beam' in Settings reportedly conserves power. I can confirm this.
Caution, disabling beam will affect Bluetooth send/receive with other phones
