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
Could you please help me with my problem. I have a wallaby version of pocket pc. My pocket pc started to run handsfree automatically. I can not stop it. It runs for every incoming and outgoing calls. After some days when started that problem there was also voice interrupting. And now I have no more sound... When I am having an incoming call handsfree opening automatically without sounding..
Thanks for advance
Hi there,
I have not read the complete forum so I don't know if this has been discussed already, but I am stuck with this wierd problem.
I used to run 2.0.64.wwe on my T-Mobile MDA and this worked fine in combination with my carkit.
Because of some GPS bluetooth problems I upgraded to 2.01a.64.wwe.
When the phone is in the carkit, I can hear incoming sounds, I can recorde voicenotes (so the mic connection works), but when answering a phone call, the mic is muted.
I have tried with Mic ACG on and off, but there is no noticable difference in these situations.
Anyone got a clue?
Thanx,
Patrick.
I have a jade working with a BT110 it answers the call fine but after the call the headset apears to turn off which it is supposed to do but the phone thinks that it is still connected so you have to turn soft reset the phone before you can make/recive a call and hear it via the handset.
has anyone else had this problem or could it possibly be the headset rather than the phone?

My experience - I use Jabra BT. The BT does not switch off after call is disconnected, until you switch it off. And the phone always thinks that BT is on (even when the BT set is switched off) until BT is disabled using the comm function.
I tried another Jabra headset last night, and although slightly better behaved it still didn't release the phone when turned off?
does anyone use a BT headset with the jade that works properly? what are peoples experiances.
anyone know what it is about the jade that makes it not work right?
Am I the only one who can not use BT on GT p1000 (FROYO.XXJK5)?
After a few seconds of call (30?), screen turns off and BT disconnects! Call continues on speaker - unusable as a phone! (BT ear peace is Emporia BT voice). It worked like charm on winmo Blackstone and Leo (until screen died after rom update (official).
Have I missed (or messed) some settings?
Thanks for quick help
Help, please, more than 30 views, no ideas? What am I doing wrong? It is disconnecting from bluetooth in Toyota factory BT also. Screen off in call and BT off also!!
Any ideas????
