I am the happy owner of an iMATE PPC (XDA II), but will be "upgrading" to the new iMATE PDA2 (XDA IIi, 2020I) shortly (in May). One of the shortcomings of the original iMATE is that it does not support caller ID on a BT headset such as Jabra's BT800 or Sony Ericsson.
Can anyone tell me with certainty whether the XDA IIi, 2020i (or equivalent PDA2) supports caller ID on the Jabra BT800 without any modifications (ie, out of the box support)? I don't care if the name displays or not, as long as I can see a phone number or something.... The name would simply be a plus. I don't want to hassle with "upgrading" or "patching" the existing bluetooth, etc, etc... I just want to know if it will work as delivered.
Thanks in advance.

i have i mate pda2k
with jabra bt800
i can have the caller id but not the name.
PDA2
Hey Kevin-
Where are you getting your PDA2 in the US? I still have a T-Mob Phone Edition & need to upgrade ASAP. I see Expansys will be getting them.
Good question as I will be getting a BT headset after I get the PDA2.

I have the Sony Ericsson Akono 600 with the display and a XDAIII. I can get the number to appear in the LED but not the name...
Seems like all it might need is to tweak the bluetooth software to change the output to the display... any one out there that can take this on?

Scottyjchef (Scotty)...
I haven't received my unit yet. Expansys-USA.com is selling them for $809. Convergent Technologies is selling them for $799. ImpactWireless is selling them for $769. All claim to start shipping at the end of April, or first week of May.
I am going to place my order via Expansys since they seem to be the largest vendor. They're also the only one that will take a pre-order, and verify with you if you want the item when it arrives before charging your credit card. I am assuming I'll have a better chance of resolving any problems (if any arise) with them as well, but I might be entirely off-based on that assumption.
I'm still teetering on whether I should wait though... it's not always best to be the first kid on the block to have a new toy, and my iMATE (XDA II) is serving me fine... I just want caller ID on the headset, landscape, and WiFi. The 1.3MP camera is nice too, but from what I've seen/heard, it doesn't take fantastic pictures.

I have a QTEK 2020i and bought the Jabra 800, but no number and no name. so I am advising you my friend to search with me for a solution before buying it. Does any one know how?
Does it work at all?
Mohs...
Does your BT800 work at all with the 2020i? My BT800 does not answer calls with my original IMATE (running Pocket Bluetooth Tools 1.0.1.2). If I install Pocket Bluetooth Tools 1.1.0.0, it works, but there is a bug that prevents the IMATE from turning off, so it stays on all day (kills battery really quick!).
Is caller id the only problem you have with the 2020i and BT800?
-Kevin.

I have tried the BT800, and Xlive. Xlive shows the name if it is in contacts but it is buggy.
http://www.expansys-usa.com/product.asp?code=117123 may work and I am ordering the HBH662 as well. I will let you know.

BT800 needs Hands Free profile. BT tools uses it's own DLL (driver) for the headset. Only Headset profile. It will take up to 9 seconds to answer a call with the BT800 and Headset profile.
Need to use 2.20 translated or 2005 OS to get A WORKING Hands Free profile.

Did you pair it under Hands Free or Headset profile?
I do not think I have a handfree profile, how can you do that?

If you have the 2020i (xda2i, Alpine) then you do have a handsfree profile, as your xda runs the Broadcom stack.
I've tried an xda2i with Jabra BT800 also and caller id works for viewing the number reliably if that is all you need. But no name.
As far as I know there is NO b/t headset on the market with fully working caller id (ie shows the name from your contacts). Which is a real shame
Mine does not show any numbers? I am really fed up of trying
Imate claims PDA2 will support Jabra BT800 Caller ID Feature
For what it's worth, from a 1-on-1 session with iMATE Customer Support:
You're now talking to Buffon from 'Club Advisors' The topic is : Not Provided
Buffon> Welcome to Club i-mate. My name is Buffon and I am a Club Advisor. What can I help you with?
curious> can you advise if the pda2 will support the caller id function on the jabra bt800 headset/
curious> hello?
curious> are you still there?
Buffon> ya
curious> did you receive my question?
Buffon> yes
Buffon> sure
Buffon> im glad to help u
Buffon> yes it support it
Buffon> it is working fine with it
curious> The caller idis fully supported? I have seen problems with the PDA2K. My IMATE PPC does NOT support caller id. Before I purchase the PDA2, it is imperative that caller id is fully supported by the Jabra BT800.
Buffon> ya
Buffon> i insure u it is supported at he PDA2
Conflicting results
Now this is interesting... IMATE says "YES", absolutely sure the PDA2 will support caller id on the Jabra BT800.
Now this is what Jabra is saying:
"Kevin,
Thank you for contacting JABRA North America.
We are not familiar with the Qtek 2020i, but the BT800 does not
support
caller id with the 02 XDA IIi and the Imate PDA 2.
If you have any questions or require additional information, please do

Go figure...

I have the BT800 and the HBH662 and the X-live 128 mp3 player-BT phone.
Caller ID works on all of them with the PDA2. X-live will display the NAME too on the 2.20 translated on the Himalaya but it times out.. The 2.20 uses the MS stack.
On my new PDA2, with the Broadcomm stack, only caller ID works on the xlive, no name. Good news is it does not time out. Works fine.
I like the xlive because it can make phone calls using the little joy stick and selecting numbers. It is great to check voice mail too because you can select numbers while in the phone call to delete or do other menu choices.

Proof that the Jabra BT800 works on the I-Mate PDA2
I have proof that the Jabra BT800 works on the new I-mate PDA2.. It can also work for the XDAIIi if you install the patch from the Extended ROM from the PDA2! :wink: :shock:
I-mate fixed it for the Alpine!
Will it work for Qtek 9090????
Hi,
Has anyone managed to get this to work on the XDA2i or am I climbing up the wrong tree? :roll:
anyone?? :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:
I installed it with a fortuna bluetooth gps and it works!
Anyway i had some problems with Plantronics headphone, i
made some tests and i suspected that Tomtom driver interact
with Plantronics, so i unistalled it! :roll:
Also i think that 2020i doesn't support 2 wire serial comunication, so
if you have a serial gps should not works! :?
Ciao
There should be no problems - I've been using it since the XDA2i was released, you need to ensure that you apply all of the updates etc. Let me know if you have any specific problems.
I can vouch that it works... Although you may need to reinstall bt-stack as tomtom overwrites it with old dll's...
Thanks everyone. I will try it.
Wondering what people's opinions are of the BT800 with the Wizard...
does it work well ?
do you have Caller ID ?
is there any way to add a neck strap to it ?
is the caller's name scrambled ?
Thanks !
I have a BT800. It works fine with my Wizard, My Universal and my Himilaya (which has WM5 on it).
Caller ID only displays the number rather than the name but a fix (to microsofts bluetooth stack) is rumoured to be in the pipeline!
I can't see how you'd add a neck strap other than with a bit of a bodge!
Thanks for the comments !
Hope the BT stack upgrade helps...
My sony ericsson HBH 660 does not work with my New qtek 9100. Has anyone had any luck with anouther unit? And if so how does the voice dialing work with the headset??
Thanks
Hi, I have same Headset (SE HBH-660) with an LCD and it works great with QTek 9100. Which kind of problems do you have?
I glad to meet anouther Qtek 9100 user! It just will not seem to identify it?? My Hp just picked it right up! Am I missing something? I go to add a new divice and it looks for the headset but never finds it? Did you have to do any tricks?
Thanks, Adam
i have problem pairing my BT head set too
problem was fixed after i upgraded the rom with this: RUU_Prodigy_1060701_101_11310_QTEK_WWE_Ship.exe
hope this helps
Same with my bluetrek G2, but i did readin the
manual that I have to push the button 7 seconds
longer after it starts up, and then my led flashes
from red to blue and it can be discovered. Didn't
have to do this on my Jam. WM5 I presume...
Hope this helped, try to check the manual.
Might be the solution, I came accros it somewhere
by accident. But it works...
Axel
got the k-jam and motorola ht 820 h/s and paired no problems
Hi, I have a question if anyone here has tried to get the TyTN and Nokia´s new BT-handsfree BH801 to work?
TyTN finds and connects to the BH801, but they dont seem to work.
It all seems to work correct, activationcode is filled in, use as hansfree is activated.
Anyone got a solution??
Thanx!
By the way, NOKIA support says that the BH-801 only supports;
Bluetooth 2.0, 1.2 and 1.1 specification,
Handsfree 1.5 (HFP) and headset 1.1 (HSP) profiles.

I could not give you an answer to your problem, but can only let you that the Nokia HS-12W works great on the new AKU 3.3 ROM's. I have the WWE version on my TyTN and the only change I had to make was to activate the stereo setting in the A2DP registry.
Previously I had great deal of problems getting the same headset to work on the SA ROM 1.35. Bitpool changes in the registry as well as Sleuths A2DP fix were necessary.
By the way I have also had amazing results with the HTC BH S100 Bluetooth stereo headset. The great thing about this device is that it allows the user the option to use their own favourite 3.5mm headset.
Regards
Hi, and thanks for your reply.
It´s seems a bit tricky to get it working, fiddeling in the program isnt something as I would prefer getting in to, as I´m a noob!
But can anyone see if the profiles that NOKIA demands is supported in TyTN?
And if so, how can I get there??
By the way, I have a swedish TyTN with following setup;
ROM-version: 1.18.263.2
ROM-datum: 07/22/06
Radioversion: 1.07.01.10
Protokollversion: 32.40.7010.02H
ExtROM-version: 1.18.263.104
Thanks!
