Hi,
anybody experiencing echo on the receiver side when using bluetooth headset? my friends keep complaining of echo that is as loud as my voice.
I had to turn the headset volume down to minimize the echo but there still is echo.
I've tested with two bluetooth headset and both having the same problem. First was with Bluetake BT400 G3... and the second as Motorola HS850.
I'm currently using

Hi,
I haven't got the answer yet, but I get exactly the same problems with my Bluetooth car kit (Siemens HKW600), I have tried all sorts of fixes, bluetooth tools, latest BT patches and nothing fixes it apart from turning the volume down as you have done.
I will keep looking into this, but it appears to be a problem that is widespread with pocketPC's and bluetooth carkits but yours is the first time I've heard of the problem with a headset.

Hi,
At least your BT headset is working. I have just bought the Motorola HS850 and I cannot get it to work with my iMate.
It pairs ok but when I try to dial a number the connection drops out.
If you have a solution for this problem it would make me extremely happy.

did you install the bluetooth patch from the Ext Rom 1.11? i've installed it.
I use a Jabra BT250V and i get that too..i will try to bring the volume down....however i cannot get the headset to redial last call by pressing the function button
I have the same problem with SE HBH-35 on my imate JAM.
Any idea to solve the problem?
I had this exact same problem, drove me up the wall. I tested god knows how many bluetooth headsets with my imate jam.
My advice. find a Sony Ericsson HBH-662 headset give it a test, see if there is an echo, there shouldn't be one, maybe a very faint one.

I tested, nokia, motorola, g2, headsets all with the echo problem. This headset however almost never has it, when it does it is very very faint and the receiver isn't fussed.
Good luck with it.
PS. Test it a few times on many calls, I have had the occasional call with it where the echo returned, also put the volume down to minimise the echo.
My bluetooth turns itself off after a few min connected to my parrot car kit? any Clues?

which parrot model? I am looking for a bt install kit to go with my vario 2. Tried a motorola HT850, worked ok for about a 1hr test except the voice dial button did not activate the voice recognition on the vario 2. This works ok with my Jabra BT200 earpiece, when its not flat !! Hence why I want an installed unit!

I recently purchased the Parrot CK3200 from Amazon to go with my Vario II. It took about 10 minutes to install but that would depend upon the connections on the back of your car stereo. It mutes the stereo and uses the car speakers. It seems to work very well but I don't use the voice dialling so can't comment on that bit.
The only issue I occasionally have is if I leave the Vario BT on when I shut it down, it doesn't always pair when I turn it back on. It then needs me to turn BT off and on again in the comms manager in order to work. Its easy enough to tell when this has happened as I don't get the blue flashing light on the Vario.
any chance of you testing the voice dial (and voice control of opening applications etc if you knew you could do that!) through the parrot system?
Is the ck3200 the "advanced" one with the lcd display? What's your rom version etc....
Cheers in advance.
It is the one with the colour LCD display, I'll test the voice dial later on my drive home. I had no idea you could open application with voice commands, I guess perhaps I should read the instructions (only do this when all else fails).
My Vario II is running
ROM vs 1.21.110.3
Radio vs 1.05.05.00
The parrot is using version 2.03d
Update:- I tried the voice dialling earlier and can report the following.
Pressing the voice dial button on the Parrot triggered the Hermes to wait for a voice tag but using the Hermes microphone. As I drive quite a noisy van this was not successful. After setting up voice recognition on the Parrot and recording new voice tags the Parrot worked reliably but only using the voice tags saved on it not the Hermes.
To use the voice tags saved on the Hermes I now have to press the voice dial button on it rather than the Parrot. Not ideal as this does not automatically mute the stereo.
To conclude, the two pair reliably and if you don't mind recording new voice tags for the Parrot then voice dialling works very well. I also really like the way I can beam photos to the Parrot so that when friends call I get their picture on the screen.
same problem

Bluetooth cutting out on me too
Never had a problem running my Nuvi 660 and Tytn with original ROM. Low and behold, I upgraded to 1.35 with 1.18 radio, and it started cutting out on me. It is driving me up a wall. I am now sorry I upgraded the ROM. I was debating reinstalling 1.04 bootloader and installing 1.21 radio (which I had installed with original Tytn Rom and no bluetooth problem) with 1.35 ROM. Any thoughts here would be appreciated.
I solved the BT problem with my Orange SPV M3100 by setting it to never switch off the display automatically (only switching off the backlight after 20 seconds or so). I also use an in-car charger to power the TyTN. The car is an A6 with RNS-E (BT enabled) and TyTN works fine and never loses the BT connection as long as the display is active.
This is a mid-term solution though and I'm still eagerly waiting for a ROM update that will solve the problem for good.

Here's a fix I used on my old wizard http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=273990 This will keep bluetooth active when in standby,
Props to Funky B for the fix
Hello,
I have a question. I updated my original ROM to the B&B 4.0 ROM and it all looks super. But now when i slide the phone into my carkit ( Carcomm CHFS-97 wired carkit ) it mutes my radio and wont come un-mute until i take out the phone. I had no problem with this with my original ROM ( 1.2.404.1 NLD ).
I tried the phone of a friend of mine that purchased it at the same time as i did and that still works fine ( still has original ROM ).
Is there a way to somehow change settings so that the phone generates a proper mute signal again ?
How is a mute signal for a carkit actually generated by the phone ?
Thanks for your time,
Radio mutes, even without phone
I have the same problem.
The carcomm carkit is connected with the radio in the car thourgh several cables.
One of them is a mute cable.
When you receive a call, your telephone sends out a mute signal through the mute cable to your radio.
The problem with the laters update is caused by HTC.
The newest rom causes a constant mute signal that is being send by the phone.
3 solutions according to the supplier:
1 Let the phone hang in the carkit and press it down when you receive a call.
2 disconnect the mute cable
3 downgrade the firmware
My fourth option:
4 find a way to disable the mute signal
Anybody knows how????
I'm a littlebit further.
When you disable the phone (commanager).
Slide it into the carcomm carkit.
And then enable it again.
Then the mute signal seems to behave accordingly.
Still no idea to disable the mute signal before sliding it into the carkit.
Carcomm carkits
Regarding the mute issue's for the S710, P3300 & P4350.
Carcomm are developing a software patch to solve this problem with these devices.
It seems there is somewhat a problem in the new Roms from HTC..
I´ve sold quite a lot off these kits..and the problem with mute on constantly came with the latest ROMS from HTC...
same applies to the parrot bluetooth kits.
Hey Folks,
I have been reading some posts here about BT and/or BT Mute problems, but my issues seems to be a bit different, plust I didn't have it 1-2 Months ago, so I think it might be ROM/Radio upgrade related ...
Right now I am running udK Diamond R8 which works perfectly fine in general.
I got my phone hooked up via BT to my car BT handsfree (it's a Peugeot 207cc which uses some Parrot BT stuff I think). This used to work perfectly fine when I first started using the polaris in the car. I don't remember when the problem started to appear, but now, when I receive and accept an incoming call, it takes 4-5 seconds, till the polaris switches audio to handsfree, meaning after accepting the call, I can't hear the other party on my car speakers ... but I can hear sound from the regular polaris speaker, very quietly of course.
After those 4-5 seconds, everything is fine and the call is switched to the car handsfree set.
The BT connection to the car set is fine all the time ... no problems connecting or pairing.
Anyone experiencing similiar issues?

Hi,
I have exactly the same problem with my C4 BT handsfree system (Parrot BT components) for some months ago. I have had a look at a lot of forum, but no answer and no solution.
Some days ago, I flash my HTC Polariswith the original WM6.1 Fre, but no improvement. I still have the same problem, 4/5 seconds before hearing the caller.
(PS : sorry for my poor english )
Bemi
Same for me, it worked fine before with the original ROM
ROM : 1.25.406.1 FRE dated 12/12/07
Radio : 1.58.21.23
Protocole : 25.65.30.04H
It happened suddenly.
I tryed a lot of modifications in the register, but no improvement.
I hoped to resolv this problem with the new original WM6.1 but no improvement.
Next week, Citroen will change the radio (it stops working many time a day).
I hope this will resolv the problem.
Bemi
I don't know excatelly the model, but it's the one with Bi-Tuner, BT, MP3 and without Navidrive.
Bemi
Same for me "and without Navidrive"
Probably the RD4
Bemi
Today, I tried several other mobiles (Samsung, Sony-Ericson, Eten, Alcatel) for my problem of delay with incoming calls.
All of them work properly and, as soon as I receive and accept an incoming call, the sound switches directly to the handsfree of the car.
So, what is the problem with my HTC Cruise ?
Any idea ?
Bemi
i'm having the same problem with a Sony DR-BT20NX headset
It has been working earlier.
But now , on incoming calls , the phone ring and later i ear a little signal in the bluetooth headset.
To accept the call , i've to use phone buttons ) .
The sound comes out the phone .I've to speak in the phone.
Otherwise i can listen music with the BT headset and make outgoing calls.
Rom : M-Amine 2.FRE
Radio : 1.59.42.15
( same problems with PDA viet Rom's V33 à V35 )
I don't remember if i've the problem since i've upgraded to radio 1.59.42.15 , sorry
Never had answers on differents forums ..
BT Joined Stereo
install advance config tool v3.3
go to BT setting
verify that your option is Joined stereo and not mono
I'm using udK Diamond R8. I had a lot of problems with my Parrot ck3100 carkit. It was finally resolved by installing the Murata 1.58.21.23 radio. With the for R8 recommended radio I had bad GSM reception, BT connection failure, random BT mute, Parrot displaying the call would continue when I in fact hang up etc.
Hi,
No change with Advanced Config Tools V3.3

I have a different BT problem.
i am currently running Touch-IT m2d Beta. but i have always had this problem, even on the original official rom.
i pair my phone with a JVC KD-BT1 CD Head Unit in the car.
i sent this to HTC support (before i started flashing new roms to my cruise):
------------
HTC Touch Cruise. rom: 1.26.710.1 wwe radio: 1.58.21.23 protocol: 25.65.30.04h. bluetooth problem. when i have BT enabled on the htc, i get in the car and it pairs with my audio system. after i make the first call it disconnects (stops pairing) after the call is finished and then after 60 seconds, it pairs up again and i can make a call again. this happens after every call. i had a nokia and i-mate jasjam before with no problems whatsoever. any patch or update available?
------------
AND THIS WAS THEIR REPLY:
-------------
Bluetooth should be universal or is marketed as universal although it is far from the truth. Certain chipsets conflict or are incompatible with others. If a device is not fully compatible it will not offer all features or possibly not connect at all. I have included the below for current tested devices.
-------------
I DON'T think this is going to be fixed any time soon, so i'll live with it!
Hi every body.
I've got the same problem.
A Cruise Rev B, and a BT car's Kit (included in a peugeot, I thing a RD4/parrot stuff)
Actually my first call is ok, and then, heads phones are cutted (sometimes after 3 or 4 seconds), but my microphone still works.
My car's BT is still paired, and sometimes indicates that I'm still phoning, even if I've cutted it on my phone.
I'm happy to find some user's in the same "panade" than me, but I hope we will find a solution...
Who knows how it works and communicate?
It has to be radio problem.
Originally I had WM 6.0 Pro on my Polaris, and BT was working flawlessly.
Then I was stupid enough to upgrade to 6.1 WWE, and now I have all kind of trouble with BT connectivity. Downgrading back to 6.0 DID NOT help!

I have exactly the same problem, based on a slightly different configuration:
My car is a Citroen (with the RD4/parrot factory built in BT)...
My phone is a HTC TyTNII.... with WM6 I couldnt even pair the phone, so I upgraded to WM6.1
Actually I had to drive to the workshop to cut the power on the car, because the parrot BT unit wouldnt stop even tho my phone was off in the meantime.
I start to believe this is not a problem caused by my phone, but a fault SW version on the parrot unit.
I have pioneer deh-p7000bt and it works flawlessly with my polaris in handsfree and a2dp mode.
to have better quality i have to turn srs wow hd off.
in advanced config i set:
-use joint stereo: no
-bitpool: very high
-max bitpool: 64
-min bitpool: 32
-sample rate: 44100
-audio getaway: enabled
Is there anyone who solved this problem yet? I have the exact same problem. When someone calls me, I cannot hear the other party through my car speakers (Citroën C5 newest model without navidrive)
I just tried http://www.jetwaremobile.com/ and this seemed to solve my problems. I had to restart my TC after installing this and removed the relationship in my car. After I made a new relationship (pairing) everything seems to work fine. If this changes I'll let you know.
I am having the same trouble, which started after upgrading to WM 6.1. Am I right in understanding that the Bluetooth is controlled by the Radio ROM and if so is it possible to downgrade just the Radio ROM? I think mine originally came with 1.58.25.14 and the upgrade replaced it with 1.59.42.15, is there a procedure to do this, and has anyone had any success.
Sorry had a search and found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=381600 which shows how to install just radio ROM, am just unclear as to whether you need to install Hard-SPL first as it is an official ROM and as to if changing radio clears all personal data from the phone.
I use to have a similar problem with the 4-5 second delay. i found that once the car is paired up with the phone, i ran bluetooth audio toggle, or other bluetooth audio program which makes all audio go through the vehicle all the time, including GPS navigation. This way when the phone rings, the ringtone can be heard through the speaker and when you answer it will be instantanious....... in theory.......... i mean, it worked for me anyway....
Then all you have to do is find some way to auto run the toggle everytime you pair your device to the vehicle...
