Bluetooth headset headaches - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

I have a BT-850 bluetooth headset, and everything works perfectly but every time I turn the headset off for charging and then back on, I have to go to bluetooth settings, delete the partnership, press the button on the headset for the Wizard to find it, enter the 0000 password, tick on Hands free and tap Finish. It is a PAIN IN THE ARSE TO DO THIS EVERYTIME!!
If I turn the Wizard off completely and reboot, the headset still works. The problem happens when I turn the headset off and back on only.
Is there a way around this?
TIA

hmmm.... i also have the 850, and aside from having to use BTaudio to force it to be a stereo headset, i havent encountered that problem.
have u tried just opening it up and pressing the universal button on the headset?? that usually instantly connects me to my phone.

Hmm are we talking about the same headset? Mine is not stereo!
Attached is a picture of it.

BTAudio pumps system sound (including music) via bluetooth headset profile, as opposed to A2DP to a stereo headset.
So when you turn on your headset, can you press the call-answer button to try and initiate the connection? That is what I do with my Itech S38.

I think my headset is defective. After reassociating, it works perfectly when I press the call/end button on it. The problem is only when I turn it off and back on. I hate to go driving and have to reassociate it when I forgot to do it before jumping into the car...

When you turn your headset off, and back on, then press the call/end button, does it reassociate?

Solved!!!
By a casuality I turned the headset on and kept the call button pressed. It started to blink the red and blue lights rapidly. I then deleted the association on the Wizard and started a search for BT devices. After some seconds it found the headset but with a headset icon (before, every time it detected the headset, it had an arrow or something like that) I then added it and now it works perfectly. When I turn it off and back on, I press the call button and it reassociates alone and opens voice dial. AMAZING!!!!
Thanks for the help,
Marton

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

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.

Headset connect button voice command activate time

Has anyone any idea on how I can adjust the time required to hold the headset connect button in order to activate the voice command? Currently I need to hold this for far to long in order to activate it.
Maybe there's something in the manual, but I can't even anwer calls with that button. I think it's supposed to be short press to answer calls, and long press for voice command. Still not figured it out.
That's odd, I press the button for a brief moment , and voice-command is activated.....BT headset btw, but it works like a charm...
The handsfree wired headset that came with the Dopod is the one that takes quite a few seconds of holding to respond. I imagine that a bluetooth headset would work differentially as the time is probably controlled by the device itself rather than the HTC 3600.

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.

Call Waiting Kills Bluetooth

Ive been having a problem when I am on a call using my bluetooth headset.
If I get a call waiting coming in, it will take me call off of bluetooth and suddenly audio switches to the handset.
The headset icon on the dialer is still lit as if its connected, but the audio is not through the headset.
I then need to uncheck the headset icon and then reclick it, which gets the bluetooth audo working again.
Obviously not ideal, especially when Im driving.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Yes. It used to work fine.
Then a couple of months ago this started...I will be speaking with bluetooth headset not problem, a second call will come in and the call waiting will automatically disconnect the bluetooth.
Interestingly, the headset button on the dialer is still lighted, but no audio through the headset. I then need to click the button off and on again, and it resumes.

One thing you could try is unpair and re-pair the headset in bluetooth settings. And if this still occurs, you can always do a factory reset (painful though).
Did you ever solve this problem? I have a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S4 that has a rooted stock ROM and started experiencing the exact same problem this week. I use my bluetooth headset several times per day and before this week that problem never occurred. Now call waiting beep causes the bluetooth to disconnect even though the headset soft button is still illuminated to show that bluetooth is still active.
