hi all
is there anyway to force the phone to show you that it is connected to your bluetooth headset (ie. constantly).
when i first pair it shows the icon next to the vmail icon then it hides itself.
thanks in advance
did you find a way to do this ??
John...
PhoneAlarm has a skin that show the headset icon on the today screen. I use phone alarm with the '1TOUCH' skin. It's quite nice.

I've recently upgraded from a Blue Angel and so far am pretty impressed but....
My BA used to have a nice little icon on the top bar showing when my BT headset was connected and also when it was active. Is there something similar for The Universal? I am asking because sometime I inadvertently press my BT headset button and consequently start draining my headset battery.
Thanks
Chris
AFAIK the only place you'll see it is when in the phone app itself. A little headset icon similar if not identical to the old WM2003SE one appears in the top right corner when the headset is connected. Note, this is NOT in the start bar, but the top right hand corner of the phone app window. With o2's customisations, it can from some angles be quite hard to spot, but you can just about make it out.
Since upgrading to the new imate rom and Radio 1.09, it seems better at finding my headset when it hasn't been connected for a while - though quite why this is I don't know, as I believe there are no BT changes in the new rom.
Cheers

Bummer :?
I liked the little icon on WM2003SE - it prevented my from accidentally drauning the battery from my BT headset. On the plus-side, the BT implementation on the Universal is far superior to that on the Blue Angel - probabaly hardware related.
You will also see it in the incoming call notification bubble, again in the top right corner.
Agreed it was useful in the old position, though in equal measure it did clutter up the bar.

I've got this trouble for long time since I flash rom from 1.5 to 2.1. With whichever 2.1 rom I always got a headset icon on the topbar with none headset really in. With this icon on, the phone thinks it really has a headset. Therefore I can't hear anything now. I've solved the problem temply with a widget called "toggle headset". But I have to tap the widget to set the headset off.. can anybody help me out with this problem? Any kind people knows how to set the headset icon off forever?

I heard you have to turn the phone off with your headset set in and turn it back on, then remove the headset.
The icon isn't even in the HTC Hero manual with the list of notification icons. It looks like a phone sitting on a pile of bricks. Does anyone know what it is or what it means?
In the attached screenshot, it's the leftmost icon.
Looks like it should be an icon for TTY
it is indeed a TTY icon. It's a device called a teletype. In the 20th century it was used for transmitting textual information before email/internet was around. Currently they are used by the deaf community.
I got that icon on zenhero when i connected headphones.
Interesting, you guys are correct. Before when I plugged in headphones, the headphone icon would naturally appear. Now, after flashing nfinitefx's stock de-odex'ed rom, this shows up. Strange.
Bluetooth switches itself off when my new DHD goes into standby.
This means that when using a headset and the phone rings, I can't pick up the call with the headset, and the phone doesn't switch the audio back to the headset if I switch Bluetooth back on during the call and press the reconnect button on the headset - this would be expected behaviour, and has worked on other phones.
I can't find a setting to fix this problem, nor a solution in these forums or elsewhere. Is it a bug or have I missed something?
Ok I've found the problem: I'm running an app called battery Booster designed to help conserve battery power. One of its default settings includes turning off Bluetooth when the device is locked. D'oh!

You sure Bluetooth isn't connected? Could be a speaker.
