Jabra BT350 Headset and Cingular 8525 - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

I got a Jabra BT350 headset which vibrates when there are incoming calls on the 8525 but it does not vibrate when there incoming emails or SMS text message or Instant messagings.
I am wondering if there a hack or a way to make sms or instant messagner or email to send a ring signal to the BT350 so it would vibrate?
Reason I got it is because I am hearing impaired and I wanted to use the BT350 to carry it in my pocket and leave the phone on my desk when it charging and still be able to detect incomings messages by having the 8525 send a call alert to the BT350.
Thanks

I was looking around Sounds & Notifications and saw that the Incoming Phone have a "Ring" Setting while other does not have that setting so I assume that the BT headset only vibrate when internal ringer is detected.
Is there a way or a hack to make all other notification use internal ring so it would vibrate the headset?

I heard back from Jarba Support and they said only incoming phone calls will trigger the headset vibrate and nothing else would but there still have to be some signal being send via bluetooth to trigger the vibrate.
I also emailed phonealarm delevopers and they told me if they know what signal is sent then they could possiably of adding a feature to trigger the headset vibrate on any notifications I wanted.
Does anyone know what are sent via bluetooth to trigger the vibrate in the headset BT350 in Windows Mobile 5.0? I know it part of WM5 becasue I did not have to install any additional software on WM5 to make BT350 work unless it was done by the headset itself when it paired up with the phone.
I'll make a nice donation to anyone who can write a software to vibrate the headset on any notifciations I receive on the phone ie sms text / email / instant messages etc instead just incoming phone calls.

Can anyone tell me if the Jabra BT350 supports MS Voice Command? Thx

Making the phone ring while BT headset is connected

I am using the Bluespoon AX with the JasJar. It uses the hands-free profile.
The most annoying thing is the phone does not ring when the headset is in connected mode. It makes the headset ring, but that requires me having it in my ear all the time.
Is there a registry setting or something that will make the phone ring as well?
I'm using a Jabra BT200 and my headset rings as well as the phone when I receive a call, which is effectively what you're looking to do.
Anyone else have theirs do this already?
I have the Moto HS850 - phone rings as well as headset with an incoming call

sms notification sound

Is there any way/workaround to get the incoming SMS sound out of the built in speakers when there is a headset/handsfree connected?
I have my headset connected almost at all times, I can hear incoming calls, but not sms.
I tried mortring, but I wasn't able to figure out if that would solve my problems...

Enable bluetooth on incoming call

I use Tomtom frequently and use a bluetooth headset to handle my phonecalls. However when I use Tomtom, I want to hear the navigation instructions from the phone speaker and not from the headset. When I recieve or make a phonecall: vice versa.
I have come up whit a workaround solution. I use BTtoggle to turn bluetooth on while navigating if I receive a phonecall, takes some time and then anwser the phonecall through the bt headset. And then with alttab back to tomtom, so that I can see the route and calling at the same time. It's not perfect, but it does the job.
I want to have this done automatically by the phone. If I am navigating and a phonecall comes in, then the phone automatically turns on the BT, I answer the phone and tomtom remains on the screen. If i am done with the conversation, bluetooth turns off and i hear the voice from tomtom again through the phone speaker....
Does anybody know how this can be done? I have seen a Palm application which could do the trick...(by the way, it has got the same name as the bt toggle app: BTtoggle)...
Should be possible.. The only thing needed is a developer who's willing to put some effort into this.
you can use PocketZenPhone, its a profile switcher which is able to active bluetooth on incoming calls.
I am using it for years now.
I am going to look in to Pocket Zen, however do you have to change the profile manualy on incoming call or automatically?
Depending on your bluetooth headset, you can just turn it on and off. My headset has a switch, so when someone calls, I turn it on while its on my ear.
What about getting a Motorola headset with the boom that turns it on and off?

Bluetooth headset and phone speaker questions

I just bought a bluetooth headset (SE DS220) which is working great - I listen to music and take/ring calls. However i have two strange issues I wonder if it is possible to fix:
1. While I am using the bluetooth headset my phone still rings if I receive an incoming call - I would like for the phone to be silent and for it to "ring" in my headset. If I turn off the sound in my phone then I can't listen to music either.
2. When I receive an incoming call I have to answer it with the button on the bluetooth unit - if I answer with the phone then the call is switched to the phones speakers. Is it possible to change this behaviour?
Thanks in advance!

If your Device switch to the Phone Speaker ... you havent connect the Headset Profil in the Blue Tooth config.

There is a tick in the box for the headset profile and the icon comes up in the status field. It only switches if I answer with the buttons on the phone.
Noone has any ideas? Hasn't anyone else this problem?
I am not sure, but why dont you just answer the call with the headset.

That's what I do - my biggest issue is the first question:
While I am using the bluetooth headset my phone still rings if I receive an incoming call - I would like for the phone to be silent and for it to "ring" in my headset. If I turn off the sound in my phone then I can't listen to music either.
BT headset problems
I have an xda2 i and I have the problem that even when the headet is connected, at times an incoming call won't broadcast over the headset at all, and equally if i dial out the call doesn't transfer to the headset.
Curiously, I've found the solution is to go into bluetooth manager -->active connections--> and click on STATUS of the head set connected. it should show signal strength and such. I double click on the CONNECTED message (oor maybe somewhere on the screen, basically double tap until it reads NOT CONNECTED ..... as odd as it sounds... this is what i needed... as when I do this, it usually works ok for me.
Maybe it will help?

bluetooth hands free question

love this phone but don't know if i have a problem or i'm just using it wrong and i'm an idiot,
i use an o2 blue hands free bluetooth and when i get an incoming call it rings nicely in my ear and i press button on the o2 blue and answer the call and it all works beautifully.
however if i'm making the call, i dial the number on the phone press green phone button and the bluetooth doesn't kick in the call stays on the phone.
(you don't press anything on the bluetooth as it don't work that way)
is this a bug or is there a specific way to make a call on the handset so the bluetooth kicks in??
(apologises in advance if i'm missing the blindingly obvious)
Hi, Scottydog -- I've been using the P6500 with a Bluetooth headset (Plantronics Voyager 815) without any problems. Though to the extent that things don't work properly, I have the opposite problem: when I _make_ calls with the headset connected, all is fine; but when I _receive_ them, calls initially go to the handset and I then have to choose "Turn Hands-free On" from the right soft-key menu to get the call on my headset.
Have you tried doing this after you dial calls?
Wish I had something better to suggest!
Alan
