BT headset-LAST NUMBER REDIAL

Hi,
does anyone know how is it possible to disable the LAST NUMBER REDIAL function? If my BT headset is in my pocket it happens many times, that the "-" button is pressed and it activates the LAST NUMBER REDIAL. It is very annoying....you can imagine. Is there any REGISTRY hack or somehing like that to solve this problem?

That has to be one of the most annoying things!
Especially when you are having a moan about someone after the original call!!
Vijay??

Nobody has the same problem?

me too - it happens for me because I changed the LaunchAPEnable registry setting from 1 to 0 to send the sound to my headset over BT
WOlfgang

Can you clarify this problem? Which button is it that's being pressed? Hardware key or on the headset?
Explain clearly and I'll look into it and if I can help...

Vijay, you're too kind for your own good.. heh heh. (but we all appreciate it )
I had this problem with my BT headset and speaking for myself, it's when you hold down the button on the headset, you'll initiate last number redial.
If you just press the button you'll launch Voice Dialler..
I used to keep my BT headset in my pocket and I had both these issues.. eventually I resolved both of these problems by buying a £3 neck strap off ebay and wearing the headset round my neck.. :wink:

BT on for nearly 2 weeks!!

gaspx: there is a technique I'm working on which might help us out here.
It's messy and very very early stages right now, and sent me over the edge last weekend. But if the technique works, it'll open some very interesting doors. Please remind me in a few days. I'm afraid that I can't think of a quick solution, but in my usual style, an unnecessarily complicated solution might surface...

i have had the same problems aswell...
although i have been looking into the phone tools that only turn the bluetooth on when you have a phone call,
i am wondering if that will allouw bluetooth to turn on when transfering audio

VJVolubilis will automatically enable bluetooth and transfer audio (or attempt to).
V

Anyone figure out a way to do this yet? It sucks because I keep accidentally calling people from my headset.

I've looked around for a solution to this problem for a while now. Anyone come up with something? Vijay?

Any development on this issue yet? I accidently called twice today. Very annoying because I kept my BT headset in pant's pocket. Please help, Vjay and others professors.

How about powering down the headset? Maybe I don't get it but....
I just triple-checked, my Motorola H500, H820 & H700 will reconnect when I power them back up & press the button once as long as the phone's BT is on, even mid-call. Do these newfangled machines not offer that? What I do is answer the call on the unit w/ one ear and if I think it'll be more than a minute, I put the headset on the other ear to power it up, press to connect, and I don't miss a word (not on the H820, I'll take a pause to switch to that one when I pull it out of my gadget-laden diaper bag. Every mom needs a BT headset!). I think it'll hook up even during ringing, but calling from my skype seemed a little overkill for this response.
(I'm using a modified/very-simply-reduced version of the Jaguar ROM on a wizard at the moment, and many of Vijay's venerably ingenious tools.)

Itech headset and Universal

Anyone have any ideas why when a call has been completed with the Itech (S38) headset the voicedial window pops up? It happens every time a call is completed, regardless of whether the call was answered using the answer button on the headset or phone. I can't find where to disable voicedialling either as I would be happy to switch it off.
It's very annoying!

Does this Itech headset have a feature to allow quick switching between Home Phone and Cell Phone? Like you press a button on the headset and you choose the Home phone or Cell phone? Because my plantronics allows me to do so but I wanted to check this Itech headset out because many people are talking of it and i got recommendations to buy it.

Switching
I don't beleive so. Once paired to the device of choice it just allows call answer via the blue LED button. This button also acts as the activator for voicedialling when in standby, which is where the problem may lie? It's just confusing as when not using the blue LED button to answer a call the voicedial window still popo up when the call has ended.

Any ideas anyone?

Dopod M700 did not work with SE HBH-DS970???

I use Dopod M700 and Handfree bluetooth Sony ericsson HBH-DS-970, I have problem about handfree.
After I compaired such devices, I could listen MP3 by DS-970 through WMP. It's worked and give qaulity sound! But, when I used DS970 as handfree/small talk, It's not worked. I could not answer/call by using DS-970. When incoming call while I listen MP3, WMP stopped but I could not recieved call through DS-970, I must recieved call by M700 only.
How should I do? Help me pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
PS : I used official rom and did not install any program.

Go in Comm Mgr BT settings and refresh your DS970 services and ck: handsfree and wireless stereo, save. See if the phone part works.
And if that doesn't work, maybe since the DS970 can only be paired with one phone, it needs to be re-set - then re-paired. I think the instructions are on page 10...yep, found my book: Turn off headset, then press and hold the on/off for 5 secs - you will hear a long beep. Now it is ready to be paired. Next: press & hold the on/off and call handling button simultaneously for 5 secs. The headset will turn off.
When I turn on BT, I find it best just to go into BT devices and refresh the services on the DS970. It seems to behave better...

Thank you very much. I made follow your advise. It's almost ok, but when incoming call, no ringtone in both M700 and DS-970 but it show number and contact. In M700 vibrated only and no ringtone in both M700 and DS-970.
May M700 did not work with DS-970???
Any suggestion. Thank you.

Hello
I've similar problem, i can hear songs etc... i even hear the ring when somebody calls on my DS-970, but when i try to accept the call using DS-970, it is not being accepted, and if press the answer button again, the bluetooth gets disconnected and the phone starts ringing.
Not sure what's causing it.
I'm using O2 Exec with the latest rom.
Please guide
Greets

Hello
No problem i just found the solution to it:
Here's what I did:
* I deleted the HBH-DS970 from the list of BlueTooth devices
* Then I bonded them again (by setting the the little switch on the headset to the left and pressing the power button for about 5 seconds after it had powered on
* Now I move the switch over to the right
Now I can listen to music and when I have an incomming call, I get a short "beep", and I just press the mic button to answer. Then the music pauses, and resumes when I hang up.

Voice Dialing by BT headset

Hi All!
I have a problem with HD: I can not start voice dialing by the BT headset (with Polaris worked well), but only to repeat the last call pressing 2 time the button. The headset is a Htc m200 (it supports this feature). Somebody help me solve? TNX!

Mine works fine using MSVC. I I use a cheap bluetooth headset I got from AT&T and in the car it works using my JVC car radio.

you need to hold the call button a little longer than normal and it works. Just dont press and release. hold it and you will hear a blip and make your call.

Doesn't work this way...by holding just a little bit longer nothing happens, if i hold for more then 3 seconds the headset turn off!

standby when ending call via BT-headset

Hello there,
has anyone an idea how to realize this:
blackstone is in standby - bluetooth is activated - bluetooth headset is on - both connected - call comes in - I take the call with the bt-headset - talk - I end the call with the bt-headset - blackstone remains on until the adjusted time for standby is reached
but I would like the blackstone switch into standby mode immediately after ending the call
is this possible ?

This needs addressed - sleep after a call during headset mode
In headset mode the phone does not go into sleep mode or power off automatically after a call. This is a major issue for those of us who leave the phone in the pocket in the car or when using bluetooth headsets. I have finished calls recently and then 5 or 10 mins later my phone would connect to someone random in the phonebook whilst driving which is quite embarrassing "I didnt call you" - "yes you did"!!
In the meantime I am using constant device lock but this is a clumsy solution for what surely MUST be a common problem. Can anyone else not help us out and try to get the device to sleep after a call during headset mode? I would be so grateful for a useful solution that doesnt involve a constant device lock that I dont really need!
Cheers

I'm having the same problem also....

The list grows - surely there must be others out there with the same problem. We should try and get out heads together to crack this one!

Sounds good man, keep up posted. Its a major issue for me too!

ok folks .. here is the very annoying answer i got from htc support
You recently wrote us about an issue that you have encountered with your HTC Touch HD. There is only one way to instantly set the device into standby mode: please press quickly the power on/off.
what shall i say ... THAT'S CRAP !!!
and i'm still thinking that there must be a workaround ... redefining the buttons or something like that ... any ideas from the specialists in here ?
c'mon guys - help us out here

that's really strange...just tested it.
connection htc/jabra bluetooth.
htc device lock ON.
an incoming call arrives, pick up the call via bt-headset. end the call via bt-headset. phone is immediately locked again (htc own device lock), display is on. after 1 minute also the display turns off.
or do you mean something completely different?

Same here and it feels retarted.
Ooe of the major purposes of a bluetooth headset is to avoid contact with the device. So having to take out the phone or handle it (in a car/office whatever) after a BT call is rediculous.

BT headset drops call
I am not sure if I should pose my questions here but my Jabra BT headset is connected to my Blackstone on standby mode via BT. However, when an incoming call comes, the BT headset does not get the call but is transfered to the HTC handset instead. I have no problems making outgoing calls on the Jabra headset. It's frustrating when I am driving... could anyone tell me how to remedy this?
Thanks in advance.

end call via BT into standby works with LockMeLite
hello there,

I have tried flashing newer fancy roms and tried various lockers but no applications are intuitive enough to fix this simple fault. When making a call in 'headset mode' the fast sleep mode prevents accidental presses during a call. Unfortunately when the call is ended via handsfree/car kit/recipient, the phone wakes back up to life.
Any locker I have used is active indiscriminantly when pressing the power on button to wake the device from sleep. I have tried lockmelite, hd tweak for inbuilt MS lock, pocketshield and another locker however none have the function to only lock the device whilst in headset mode and after a call has ended. This is a request to developers, expert cooks and modifiers please can anyone help us out?
Thanks a million

Check this, it can do the trick...

S2u2 V2.04 workes fineas you needs, even look during a call (gives black screen)

I'll do a try
As I have the same request/problem I'll try the following with the help of AGEProfile.
- I create a profile actived when the headphone is connected, when this profile is activated it launches a program named MySuspend so my phone is suspended.
- I create another profile activated when the headphone is connected and there is a call in progress, this profile does nothing but it exists (only)
So when my phone goes connected with the headset (BT) it goes suspended.
When I receive a call it wakeup as normal and the profile is switched to the second one (but does nothing)
When the call finishes, the first profile is activated again and the phone goes suspended.
That's all (and it should work, I just made the setup for that).
Regards,
P.S. sorry for my english because it's not my language.

I also have this same question. After ending the call the screen stays unlocked and will inadvertently call a number sometimes.

I tried
Yes I made a try yesterday evening in real conditions and it work very well
So I'm very happy
I forgot to mention that I also use the Inesoft to have the screen locked when one call come in.
Hope this will be useful for you too
Regards,
