k-jam bluetooth headset not clear

hi all i am new here
i recently bought my self a new motorola h500 bluetooth headset, the problem is when i connect to my kjam the voice sounds cracking and is not pleasent, though all features work and i dont think there is any problem with the headset, as it works just fine with my p910i, se k750i and my sharp gx 15
. so i was wondering is the sound transmission quality of kjam bad or is there something worng with my kjam or the headset,
please reply as both of them are still under 14days return policy so i can change if any one of them is not right
pls help
cheers

I do not have the same headset (jabra bt 190 I believe), but I find the sound of the headset very distorted. So maybe it is a rom problem? It could also mean that the devices are just not compatible, I did not have this problem on the Qtek s110, there it sounded great.

Make sure nothing is running
I find that my bluetooth headset crackles when I have a lot of programs running in memory. Go to Settings->Device->Memory and select running programs and close all and see if you get the same result with your headset.

TOMTOM instructions on hands-free

Can enyone tell me if it is possible and how??
I have a Parrot 3100 and works fine for calls but can't put it saying nothing that comes from TOMTOM.
I have a friend that one time he heard the tomtom on a head-set.
But only one time and never more.
He doesn't know how!
Can enyone help me?

seem to recall people saying it works if
gps is connected first and then headset

You need a bluetooth headset with AD2P proflie. The standard hards free profile will only route calls to the headset. That said, if you press the voice dial button on your headset when an instruction is being read out, you will hear it in the headset (once only) - probably what the friend experienced.

Hi. I use a piece of software with my standard bt handsfree.
Chartcross Bluetooth Audio Router
The sound quality isn't stunning, but it lets all sounds that usually come from the inbuilt speaker to go through the handsfree instead

Tryed Chartcross Bluetooth Audio Router on my Trinity WM6 using hands free car kit (Delta System)... When activated it switches off the car speakers (like when calls arrive) but sounds still are on the speaker of pda...
Do you thing it will be necessary a reg tweak?
THX

No idea sorry. I only got my Trinity 2 days ago. I was using a prophet before which worked fine with it. I'll let you know if i do find anything though

IN MY HAND-FREE car kit my tomtom turned off the radio and instructions in car speakers.
right now that doesn't happen.
Infortunately i've tried so many roms i don't know i used at that time, and how make car speakers work again. Any help?

TyTN II and the Jabra 320s Stereo BT Headset

Well, just got my TyTN II. For me it is worth the upgrade from the TyTN.
I have only one issue. My Jabra 320s headset is about 30% lower in recieving volume than it is on my TyTN I. On the original TyTN, the volume was just about right, any lower and it wouldn't be usable, but now that I am running it on the TyTN II it is un-usable at such a low volume.
My question is this?
Is this issue fixable through software/registry etc...
And does anyone have any idea how I can fix this?
JB

That's the big question, low BT headset volume when calling is a consistant issue with most headsets on Kaiser vs Hermes. Time to email HTC support, it's a bug.

lol no problems here. Using Plantronics Voyager 510SL.

Even if it's a bug with the Kaiser, (Probably software) we won't see any fix from HTC anytime soon. That's why I am asking the pros over here at XDA if there is a software/config workaround/fix that can be implemented.

ditto... while i'm not using the 510SL, i am using the 510 and it's quite loud with my Kaiser..

I found my problem and fixed it...
Ok, I'm an idiot... I fixed my bt headset issue with low recieving volume. Through my haste to try and fix the volume issue, I missed one key setting... I forgot to click on the small speaker icon on the top right of the screen and push the volume sliders to max.... Apparently, I only tried to use the jog wheel alone to raise volume and that works, but seems to work seperately from the volume icon levels.
So for me... I have the same volume levels I had as before with the TyTN I.
JB

I have another problem with this headset, I don't get the "stereo" service. The only thing my kaiser recognises is the "handsfree" service.
Does somebody now how I can make it work?

Sorry, this raises the volume in the BT headset for all "system" sounds like voice dial confirmation talkback to the headset, but the in-call volume remains lower than Hermes once you are connected, the slider has no effect. To be clear, if you adjust the slider while NO call is in progress, the volume in the headset will be affected, but after connection the sound volume remains low, no matter how you left the slider from before.

Yes.. I had the same problem...
This may sound rediculous on how I fixed it, but it worked.
I paired my laptop and the Headset and then tried to listen to stereo music, and also paired the phone with the laptop and then it would pair correctly with the Jabra bt320s.
It seems to me that the kaiser has a few BT bugs that need to be worked out, and that different pairings will change either reg settings or configs that arent available to the UI...

You are correct and I am still having low BT call volume, but at the time I was having low BT stereo volume as well. The sliders fixed the stereo problem, but didn't fix the BT call volume.
I haven't tried the fix yet, but I believe someone claims to have fixed the BT call volume with a cooked rom or a modified rom...
I'm not worried that we will have this fixed sometime soon.

I am using my Motorola HT820 BT headset without any issues since day one. I simply paired them, and made sure Stereo Headset was selected in the bluetooth options, and they just work. Volume and Track changes from the headset also work great. One thing I never liked about the HT820 was it's range, just about 20 ft. I used to have it paired with my laptop, but no longer since I have 4G of music on my phone....

how long does the kaiser battery last listening mp3 throught bluetooth headset?, anybody tried it?
will it drain battery MUCH faster than using included headset?

I bought a plantronics pulsar 260 and that one works too. In the shop they told me that jabra has much problems with their bluetooth headsets!

I don't really have any idea, since I charge it nightly. I normally leave the BT on all the time anyway.

Strange problem with handsfree mode
Hi guys,
I have just purchased the Jabra 320s and was happy with the stereo quality and apart from the low volume issue on handsfree calls were handled quite well through the device.
Once, When the phone rang, it was answered by my wife using the phone answer key instead of the Jabra's answer button and since then I cannot answer calls through the Jabra. I have tried the options on the Kaiser whilst on a call to have the call transfered to handsfree but that also does not work, I have tried resetting and re-paring both devices and it still does not work for calls on handsfree (once paired, I have the handsfree option and stereo selected). The stereo is however working fine without any problems when playing mp3's.
Any ideas?

Did you solve this problem, I just bought the 320s and am experiencing the same issue?

Problems with Jabra BT8040

Hey, is anyone using the bluetooth headset Jabra BT8040, When I first bought the headset, I had no problems using it. But I've noticed a few months ago, that whenever I use the device, the person I'm calling wont be able to hear me but I can hear them. Anyone have any ideas to solve this problem?

Similar problems
I've got the same earpiece and I've had some problems with it, including: unable to pair (or saying it's paired when it really isn't), unable to connect the BT on a call, and sometimes the earpiece will just disconnect from the phone (but the call will still remain active).
That last one is the closest I've come to your issue. I usually have to put the phone in discovery mode (and the earpiece) and try repairing them from scratch.
I've heard from others with this earpiece that they haven't had problems, but I don't know anyone who has this earpiece and the Raphael. Also, I've got the Motorola S9 bt headphones and I haven't had any problems with them. So, I'm not 100% it's the earpiece but then again it could be.

i have this jabra for about 6 months and had no problem at all with Raphael!

Changed ROM
I've just changed the ROM on my phone (as in signature line) so that may change things for me with the Jabra BT.

I'm using the updated ROM and radio in my signature line with the Jabra BT8060 (wasn't it? whatever the one we were talking about in this post is) as well as a Motorola S9 and I pair it with my laptop for internet access that way. So far I have not had the same troubles with the Jabra BT as I used to. It could be due to updated drivers for the BT or the fact that I'm not using TF3D (just the new WM6.5 interface).
Either way, I'm having good results so far.

I spoke too soon on BT...
I've spoken too soon on BT. I was trying to get my Motorola S9 working so I could listen to music from my phone. No luck at all - it shows the S9 connected for both the calls and the the music, but it only works on calls and the music plays on the device with the speaker. And it was working just fine this morning. Bluetooth in general is so frustrating to me that I would literally remove it from every costom ROM I use EXCEPT for "Internet Sharing" (on an Acer laptop and netbook) over bluetooth and activesync with a PC. Not just with this phone, but seriously, with BT 2.0 it should work A LOT BETTER than it does.

I have similar issues with several different Moto H700's. I can hear them but they can not hear me. Possibly the BT drivers from HTC need a fix????

Possible to send all audio over bluetooth?

I've spent days searching and trying all sorts of tweaks but I can't get anything to work. Can anyone PLEASE help!
I use Tomtom 7 and I've always sent the voice instructions to the bluetooth speaker in my bike helmet (just a handsfree paired item). I've previously done this on HTC devices with BTAudio and a one line registry tweak. Can anyone offer a solution to send all the audio to a bluetooth handsfree on the HD2?
I really hope someone can help, I've got the HD2 setup just right except for this last remaining item.
Many thanks,

i have the same problem...
@noony i think u have already enabled in bt setting the option "manage system audio in handsfree device" if u didnt...try that
for me doesnt work maybe its a headphone problem i see a sort of "fhhh" when any sound is played on phone but still come out from the speeker
another issue... every time i start a call with bt the volume is at the lower level..internal and headphone too! and the last is very strange because with my artemis didnt do

Yes I've tried the "manage system audio in handsfree device" option. I can get some background noise on the headsets (I'm trying with a Scala Rider and Motorola 700 & 850) but I never manage to get any sound.
Can anyone please offer a solution? It's a big disappointment for me if this isn't possible. Any suggestions welcome, many thanks.

My Observations
I pared it with my BMW and for the life of me cant ger any audio (music) over bluetooth ( the phone works fine) I then tried it on a $20 bluetooth earpiece I ocassionally use for the phone and guess what I can play music over it fine.
I tried and tried again in the car but could not get it to work.
I think some bluetooth devices will not work. Is there a different specifiaation for bluetooth ir BT1 and BT2 ??
I havent checked into this yet.....

It gives me some hope that you've got it to work with one bluetooth device. Can you please let me know exactly what you did to get the $20 bluetooth earpiece to work?
Thanks,

yeah that was my idea but without a stereo bt device i cant try to myself...i ordered to vodafone one with some of my tons of points...3 weeks and no answer!

I had the same issue and on my old phone, the HTC Touch HD, I used the following program to my satisfaction:
BTAudio
On my HTC HD2 however this doesn't seem to work anymore. :-(

it does the same thing of the inbuild bt option on hd2 its just a "quick link" to place on the bar
anyone of u have any problem with bt device volume? before i have an Artemis and 3 different device i used the device volume was every time the one i choose...now every time a new call starts phone volume its right but device volume jump to minimum level and every time i have to press + button like as i'm playing videopoker to dont miss fist seconds of a conversation

Works fine with Jabra 3030, all audio over it, music, system sounds and calls.

Maybe it's only working for bluetooth devices that are setup as stereo. Can anyone please offer a solution here?

I've installed a 6.5 rom (dutty v7 - thank you) on my HD and after a sprite restore (level 2) bluetooth audio divert works fine. Although I notived that the bluetooth options remained the old settings (possibly due to my backup restore) and the divert was done using the BTAudio. Sorry to keep asking but if anyone can shed light on this.
Is it possible to tweak the HD2 so that audio can be sent to any bluetooth headset/handsfree or is there some hardware limitation that stops this from being done?
I've tried every app and tweak that I can think of! Please can anyone help, even iof it's to let me know why this can't be done.
Thanks,

its what we all are trying to do......now i think its only a bt device problem...if it support bt2.1 and a2dp with edr seems to work all good....
i solved in car with headphone in the box...but bluetooth should be much and much better without any cable that always have to remove nodes (its the right word? sorry if not hehe)

I'm connecting to my HD2 using Jabra Stone, an A2DP headset. When I selected the stereo headset profile on the HD2, it redirected all system sounds to the headset: reminders, SMS alert, soundtrack for videos, audio player....except phone ring. I used BT Audio over a non-A2DP headset before with Diamond2, but the ausio is very poor, and the connection drops very often. Since I changed to A2DP headsets, the Diamond2 and HD2 supports it out of the box - no hack needed.
So look for A2DP headsets if you want to redirect audio.

Thank you to everyone that has helped with replies. I've now got my answer. If the bluetooth device supports A2DP then it works! (just won't work with mono etc)
I've now tested my HD2 with over a dozen bluetooth devices ALL A2DP enabled headsets regardless of if they are cheap or expensive!
Thanks again for everyone taking the time to help.

I have an LG HBM-220 bluetooth and cannot put audio to in, only phone calls!
How can i manage to do it?

I blame it on the stupid Widcomm Bluetooth stack... If the HD2 used the better MS stack, BT would play nice with with more of our periphirals and apps
I can't use MSVC properly with BT either....

the solution is to go to the bluetooth settings, select your device and connect the stereo audio connection.

Way back, Microsoft decreed that ONLY the phone app could use a mono BlueTooth headset, although any audio could be redirected to a stereo A2DP headset.
In order to get around this you need to fudge the sytem with something like BTAudio or TekSoft's BlueAudio.
The latter worked on my XDA Orbits (1 and 2) but does not work on my Touch HD with Dutty's R6 ROM (WM 6.5) possibly because BlueAudio requires the Microsoft BlueTooth stack and I suspect Dutty's ROM has the Widcomm stack. But I could be wrong about that.
BTAudio sort of works on my Touch HD, but outgoing audio is speeded up like I've been breathing Helium.
So no current solution to yet another idiotic gotcha from Microsoft.

Hmmm. When I conect via gprs to youtube aps I can hear the voice in my mono headset (jabra 2020) but via wifi and computer as modem voice is only in phone speaker. So maybe we should look gprs or youtube aps reg tweek.

Guys
i have a nokia HB-100 headset and i'm experiencing all kinds of strange behavours
sometimes system sounds including music ...etc get directed to the headset and some other time it just directs calls no matter how hard i try thru soft resets or unchecking then checking the "play system sounds ..." option!
very strange, any insights about this? is there a tweak to go with or is it a known WM defect?
