bluetooth car phone probs - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

I have a t-mobile mda II with the shipped rom that has the usual problem with the bt turning on and off.
I have tried most of the fixes posted, only way I could get a reliable connection was to plug the car charger in and leave the display on.
Have had a good trawl through the bluetooth sections of the registry and noticed a key hklm\software\microsoft\bluetooth\sys and key DisableAutoSuspend as shipped this has a value of 1.
I have changed this value to a 0 and done a soft reset for last 2 days my ck3100 has not lost the connection with the mda II running on battery in suspend mode.
may be worth a try

I'll give it a try on my TyTn this evening.
Sure hope this fixes the problem with the connection dropping all the time and BT turning itself off when using it on my Audi MMI BT carkit.

played telephone tennis between t-mobile and htc uk today.. Finaly ended up talking to a chap called John at HTC, who said they were aware of an issue and were in the final stages of testing a release rom update..
T-Mobile had never heard of the mda vario II disconnecting from bt car kits.
Have notice if i do a soft reset and do not connect back to gprs or 3g (so i have a x instead of a g/3g simbol ) the bt connection is much more reliable

O2 Clip BT headset and XDA2i

Hi
I've received my XDA2i today and am very pleased with it...even if my girlfriend was less than impressed given it's likeness to the XDA2! Hehe...
Anyway, I am having great difficulty getting my o2 bluetooth clip headset to pair up and connect. I have tried and rechecked everything I can think of, yet when I try to connect it as a headset / handsfree in BT Connection Wizard, it comes back (after asking for the legtimate pin) saying "an error occured while attempting service discovery. Please make sure the remote device is turned on, BT is enabled and the device is discoverable and try again".
I've checked on my old XDA2 just now and it recognises it straight away. Obviously the 2i is doing something because it asks for the pin.
Can anyone help?
Cheers
Anthony
I somehow managed to pair the headset which does now show in bonded pairings.
Also whilst performing a hard reset I managed to make it a hands free headset briefly so there doesn't appear to be a problem with the headset (and it works fine with the XDA2).
Is there a way of removing this broadcom stack and replacing it with one that works better? it's currently build 3900.
Cheers
Anthony
Thanks for all the responses!
:shock:
However, now I've resigned myself to this I was wondering if anyone DOES actually knew of a way to remove the standard xda2i BT stack and replace it with a version akin to that present in XDA2 ROMs.
I personally couldn't give two shiny sh*tes about all the other features, if having them means I can't use the damn thing whilst driving!

Clash Between BT Headset & GPS

Can anyone help with this,
I have an O2 Exec (Latest O2 ROM etc)
I have a Bluetooth GPS & Bluetooth Headset, when using the GPS, if a call comes in I can answer it on the headset, but the GPS goes all screwy, starts losing position, even after the call is ended the GPS is erratic
I have installed Buzzs Bluetooth Patch, and no effect,
Its a bit of a pain if I can't use a Bluetooth headset and GPS at the same time.
Anyone had this and found a cure?.
EXEC, Details are
1.13.82 WWE
11/30/05
1.04.02
42.37.P8
1.13.118 WWE
Help appreciated
Thanks
Richard
Richard im on the same rom as you but without the bt patch and ive no problems
alix776,
I will try it again later on, I had the problem before I installed the patch, so I installed it to see if it cured it, but it didn't
I will do a hard rest later and start from scratch again, see if that helps,
I didn't have any problems using the same BT Headset on an XDA 2i, so assumed it would work ok on the EXEC, the only change to the setup is the GPS unit, I am using a really cheap and cruddy £30 jobbie off ebay (Its only 8 Ch, and seems a bit flaky!),
I will have a new Sirf3 unit arriving in a few days, so can try that to see if the problem is with the cheap BT GPS!.
I need to get a solution sorted in the next 10 days before going back to work in the US, or I will have to take the TTOne with me if I can't get this setup working 100%
Cheers
Richard

I just tried it again from a hard reset and the same problem
GPS works fine till I answer a call, then It stalls and loses GPS Position till I hang up, then GPS connects again but there is massive lag and the Map is nowhere near its true position,
Not cured until you exit TT and restart,
How did you install TT, I copied the cabs across and installed from the SD, I paired the GPS and set it to COM0, then in TT5 selected Other Bluetooth GPS and COM0.. am I doing something wrong with the way I am trying to get it installed
This has always worked on all the other systems I have used!
Cheers
Richard
I have the same problem and other...
I have the same problem when using Tom Tom ,if I pick a call with my BT headset the gps lost the position and when I close the phone call TT says No GPS device.......it restarts by himself after few mins , but the position is uncorrect, it has like a sort of delay, the arrow on the display "follows me" 2 or 3 Km behind.
So, mi car is quite fast..but be faster than a navigation device is very funny...
Btw my gps antena is an Hamlet HBTGPS
Other problem I have is that Tomtom 5.21 don't allow me to use my TT5.00 maps,it only see Italy ,Iberia and UK...
I think I will get Navigon asap....
Bye...
just a thought have you tried formating the storage card and reinstalling the map just back it up first in using a sirf3 apos and jabra 250v headset ive also used a ttmk2 bt receiver with no probs either
Same here
I am also getting this issue on an SPW M5000, flashed to the Imate test rom. I don't know if it was happening before on the original (crappy) orange rom that it shipped with as I had to upgrade my GPS to a bluetooth from a mouse.
It is a real pain not being able to use them both together and I'm tied to the phone with a wire at the minute.
Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

BTHeadset not working with new ROM after a week or so?

Its been a week since I have upgraded to new ROM and my kjam has stopped creating the connection between my jabra 250 and the unit. It shows a partnership in the connections, but does not activate when I turn on bluetooth and the headset. This is the second time. (I have upgraded the ROM two times and both times a week into it, my bluetooth headset has stopped working).
Any suggestions?
thanks,
mike
It just happened to me this morning... my Jabra 250 is not recognized and it turns out that my BT hardware is having problems. It took forever to restart the device. Now I'm trying to run the ROM update again. I'm using the latest AKU2 ROM (2.17.7.2) from Qtek on unlocked CID Qtek 9100 device.
Seems like I have a dead bluetooth hardware on my hand... anybody knows where I could get this thing fixed locally at Los Angeles, California area? Thanks.
Also had problems with my BT Platronics M2500 hands free when i first updated my kjam. My Kjam recognized the hands free device and it worked great until I turned off the BT hands free device. When I turned it bvack on again my Kjam didn’t seem to be able to find the BT device, so I had to delete the pairing between Kjam and BT device and do the pairing operation again. I then tried a Nokia BT hands free to see if it was a problem with my Kjam, did the pairing and after that my BT Platronics M2500 hands free began working perfectly. I don’t know why but it did, maybe an AKU2 bug?
So my advice is to do a pairing with another hands free BT device and see what happens before you go buying other BT device.

Vario II & Tomtom 6 & Car Kit Probs

I have an MDA VARIO II which has the following
Rom Version 1.21.110.3
Rom Date: 06/19/06
Radio Version: 1.16
I have 2 problems one being that whenever i use Tomtom6 the program just freezes and locks the device, forcing me to reset the device. This appears to be related to the 3G and push settings as when I turn push "off" although the device still locks up on Tomtom, if i press the call cancel button and then press tomtom again it comes back working thus not requiring a full reset, anyone have any input on this as to why this happens ? i even went so far as to disabling the 3G and putting the device to GSM, this seems to solve the problem and tomtom does not lockup at all. This is of course not ideal as involves changing stuff manually before i set off in my car and remembering to put it back on.
Also my other problem is the car kit. I have a CK7W bluetooth kit, this works fine on my old o2 xda mini s device but with my new Vario II i have problems in the fact that I can hear people talking but when i talk they either cannot hear me or it comes through in spits and spurts.
Any advice appreciated.

Problems with BMW Bluetooth car kit

I've just got a Orange SPV M3100 and paired it with my BMW OEM bluetooth carkit, all goes fine and paired no problems.
It manages to connect to the phone and display contact details on the radio display and make calls.
But leaving it a couple of hours and coming back, the phone will not reconnect back to the car. I've tried resetting the phone without success.
The only way to get the connection back is to re-pair the devices.
I had a Imate Jamin before and it worked without a problem, connects every time.
Is anyone else experiencing problems with their carkits?
Do you think the problem is specific to the Orange ROM, would flashing it to a Imate or TyTN ROM help or resolve the problem?
Any advice would be greatly appricated.
Hi, I got a problem similar like yours...
I´m from Spain and I have an ´06 Opel Astra(Vauxhall in UK) with the BT handsfree carkit from factory.
If I make a hard reset to my Vodafone S200 (Orange SPV M600) and leave the machine with the factory settings it works fine with the carkit, but it recognice the carkit like a headset handsfree. But if i restore a back up with the TomTom 6 installed... wow, then start the problems... the handsfree conect with the S200 but after a few seconds the connection is over...
I don´t know if have you got some kind of navigation system, but in my case the problems starts when I install the TomTom... I´m sure it changes some drivers of the BT and this makes the don´t works propertly.
I don´t know what to do...
PArrot Car Kit
I have the same problem with Parrot Car Kit and I have the latest TYTYN ROM
2006 BMW 3-Series Bluetooth
My car doesn't have bluetooth, but I had a loaner car while my car was under the knife. The loaner car was a 2006 3-series w/ Bluetooth. The first pair was perfect, but after a few hours.. What a POS.
I have the latest ROM on my phone, and that didn't make a difference.
No issues on my 5 series, but I have one of the first ULF modules in mine.
From reading TyTN Bluetooth issues around the net and on this forum, it seems to be an issue with the TyTN having some kind of power save mode which turns the bluetooth off after some time.
Kinda stupid, anyone know some registry crack to turn any power saving off?
I have a Parrot CK3100 in a BMW and a brand new SPV M3100. All was working well with my M600 but as soon as I swapped the phone for the M3100 last week I've had problems as described by the OP. Bluetooth keeps switching itself off on the SPV. It works well enough to start with and then suddenly it disconnects. Re-pairing works and it's worth going to bluetooth settings and turning it back on again before you try re-pairing.
Surely there must be an easy fix for this problem - I'm just really pleased I'm not the only one with this fault.
............
Your all quite lucky it works at all..mine doesn't do anything
My Ford Fiesta has been waiting for an 'software upgrade' since October !!
Promised it would be available before Xmas but nothing happened.

Try and replicate the problem with a different phone if possible. One that BMW supports. If can replicate it, then they'll update the firmware on the BT unit in the car. This happened to me. But I had to prove my case using my girlfriend's RAZR before they'd listen and stop blaming my phone as the cause.

I dont think it is a problem with the BMW carkit as it worked fine with my SPV M600 (Prophet)
