OK I just bought the most expensive bluetooh headset man can find the Jabra JX-10 hoping that I will not have the same problems I have had with all other plantronics and other head sets.
The headset paired and (I guess its connected, there is no indication on the screen)
Here is the problem:
When I make a call, I see the headset logo on the dialer screen. The voice however comes from the phone, not the headset. Then I have to I push the CALL button on the headset to TRANSFER the call. (If my timing is not perfect and I push the button "before" the call is actually CONNECTED and there is someone talking, the phone will simply HANG UP.
Can the phone just send the calls to the headset at all times (unless I am in my car that has bluetooth?)
THANKS FOR ALL THE POSTS!!
I uninstalled touchflo and un-paired and re-paired the headset and it is working properly now.

I've just bought the Motorola HS850 instead of my old BT headset BlueTeK G2.
The first thing I've noticed is that the headset is too loose.
Second, I've timed how long does it takes to the headset get connected to the phone (JAM) while the phone is ringing. And it took 8 seconds! Is it too much?
Third, I know that when the headset is closed and I'm receiving a call, I can just open the headset and it will pair and answer the call. But it doesn't happen that way! It just pairs to the phone (JAM) and not answering the call! I've to answer the call manually.
Is there something wrong with my HS850?
Friends,
I have the EXEC and when im using TOMTOM i receive a call, does anyone know how to answer it and Enable the handsfree speaker? I found that i was driving, and i got the call alert and pressed Answer, however i had to pick the exec up, and use it as a normal hand-ear. Anyway of enabling Hands Free?
MANY THANKS
Try holding the Green Button until the speaker is activated + - 3 Seconds
Then switch of Aircon / radio / close the window ...
I must say that Radio 1.06.00 improved the Speaker volume

or buy a bluetooth headset (circa £30 these days) and configure the auto answer feature.
Even without auto answer on my MDA Pro interupts TomTom with the usual call anouncement and I simply hit the button on my headset to accept the call.
i'm having the same problem..
when i use tomtom with bt gps.. and my bt headset.. i cannot make or answer any calls..
the ringtone doesn't sound normal either.. (no continues ringing)
multiple bluetooth devices problem?
TomTom & Nokia Car Kit
I have a similar problem,
I am using a Nokia CK-7w BT Car kit, and a generic BT GPS receiver.
Upon receiving a call, the phone rings as normal, swtiches the stereo off and I take the call - however once on the call I lose the connection to the GPS receiver.
IT must be possible for the two devices to work together as I always receive the calls through the Car Kit.
Any ideas?

Dunno, my O2 Exec with Tomtom 5.2 has no problems. I use a globalsat receiver and currently a Moto HS820 headset, (previously a Jabra BT200, but I broke that).
Navigates fine, when I recieve a call, tomtom is muted, the exec and the headset ring, I press the answer button on the headset, and can take the call, Tomtom will continue to navigate without voice prompts. Finish the call via headset button again and Tomtom becomes un-muted and continues as before.
So the Exec version of the universal at least is more than capable of managing the tasks you require via multiple bluetooth connections. I run in corporate mode if that makes any difference.
tomtom 5?
Im using tomtom 5.21 (i think) with a Bluetooth handsfree kit. Jabra over the ear type. When a call comes in and TomTom is runnin a message flashes up on screen notifying of incoming call. I can answer the call using the soft answer button on screen or by pressing the pickup button on my headset. When I do the message on screen goes away and TomTom carries on just with the sound muted. When I hang up by pressing the call button on my headset TomTom unmutes itself.
Certainly with a bluetooth handsfree kit I have found tomtom works really well.
I am encountering a problem where after some time (do not know how long exactly) my BT headset seems not to synchronize with my TyTN. So when an incoming call arrives I am unable to answer it using the BT headset. Also, when I try to use Voice dialing it efuses to use my BT headset.
Only when I do a soft reset it works.
any ideas?
I have the same problem with a SonyEricsson HBH-610A.
Some times the bluetooth stops it self and I have to activate it agan.
Today when I tried to install the headset again, it searched forever and then I got the message, "Problem with Internal Bluetooth Hardware" and a OK button??
Only when I do a soft reset it saves the problem.
It actually drives me nuts, because I want to answer calles when the TyTN is in its holster.
I am using a Plantronics 655 with my TyTN running VC 1.5 with the common registry hack and have similar problems but not exactly the same. I want to be able to initiate voice dialing via the headset but when VC repeats the command it comes through the phone speaker and not the headset which also means my confirmation of the command has to be through the phone rather than the headset. Also, when a call comes in my TyTN speaks the name and number of the calling party through the telephone speaker but only beeps in my headset. To me it should be speaking to me through the headset.
I'm trying to get down to the bottom of this issue so it can be resolved through coordinated pressure on the responsible party(s).
Any help I receive will go to help all BT users of VC on the TyTN.

Hi All: I have paired the headset fine with my phone and made calls before but I can not switch a call from the handset to the headset while a call is already in progress. Once I end the call, I can pair the headset fine to make a NEW call but I'm having problems switching the call when it is already in progress. I can go to the phone and manually switch it to hands free but I thought that if I powered on the headset while a call was already in progress, that would route the conversation from the handset to the headset. Is that correct or can it not do this without some tweaking? Thanks.
I have the same setup and I can answer the call on the phone, then "open" the H700 and the phone re-directs the call thru the headset within about 2 seconds from opening the headset.
If I'm on the headset, I can press and hold the call button on the H700 and the call goes on hold. I can "close" the headset and then un-hold the phone using the touch screen and resume the call on the 8525.
Now I believe that the standard bluetooth stack is crap, and I have had many instances where the phone just stops linking the Bluetooth. I can usually restore the link just by using the comm manager to turn off the bluetooth radio, then turning it back On. I have even done this during a call and it worked.
I have always had solid, loud audio with the H700, BUT, several callers have mentioned that my voice was often clipping a word every few seconds. I don't know what that's all about.
Do you know whether you need to select any special settings or do anything special in the pairing setup with the phone or headset? I do not know how to have the conversation directed to the headset after turning it on when I am already on the call. It works fine to start a new call or to answer a call directly through the headset but can't join a call in progress. Would appreciate anyone's help. Thanks.
I have a Plantronics Voyager Pro headset. I've used this with my previous phone, a BB 8900. When the headset is on, it connects to the MT4G and if I make a call, it will automatically use the headset. However, if the headset is on and I recieve a call, a menu opens on the phone and askes where to send the audio. I'd like to set it so that it always chooses the headset if it's on. That's how the 8900 used to work.
Right now, once I answer the call, there's a pause while I select the Voyager Pro out of the menu. Does anyone know how to set this?
Thanks,
Dave
l've found that if you depress the headset button instead of touching the screen during the ring, your phone will answer and use the BT headset without the prompt.
If you touch the screen first, you're screwed.
Hey, thanks! I didn't even think of that. I'll give it a try. I was used to my BB automatically connecting to the BT if it was on. You get a big "Thanks" button for that one.
