i have a bluetooth headset and my mda wont find it but i can find it on my outher phone
Assuming you tried obvious like turning on bluetooth, have to checked to make sure the bluetooth services are being loading? I use sktools to see my startup processes and services. Check that out and maybe one of the bluetooth services is set to disabled.
Those are my only suggestions. I am very new to the use of bluetooth.

It's also quite possible that your headset is just not compatible with a wizard. There's more than one bluetooth driver, and not all phones carry all drivers. It might be an easy fix if you can find the missing driver.
What's your headset brand/model/etc.?
thanks i got it the bluetooth was "slaved" to my outher phone all i hade to do was hold power button for abot 30 sec. and it reset so i could find it thanks for yalls help

hi ppl
i use an austrian mda2 w/ ROM 1.6.00GER and ExtROM 1.60.07 together with a parrot ck3000 handsfree in my car.
i use the original bt stack w/o ANY changes.
making calls and taking calls is no problem at all and works most of the times.
the problem is as follows: when i enter the car, bt turned on, and also profile says "BT Headset ist eingeschaltet (means bt headset is turned ON)", and the n i want to place a call, the call is not routed over the handsfree. explanation is simple: when i change back to "today" - bt is turned OFF !!!
so my conclusion: everytime bt is used for the first time after disconnetion from the handsfree, it just turns OFF when it should connect. after i turn bt on by hand again it works w/o any problem. ('till i come back to the car of course - and everything starts again)
this is very annoying....
so has anyone any hint what to do? i wouldn't really mind updating to an english rom - if i just knew that that does work.
thanks,

when i use this one
http://bluetooth.i-networx.de/index_e.html
my device turn bluetooth on when i call even though i dont have a bluetooth headset maybe it'll help you
thanks rudegar
i know that stack by TOWA. unfortunately that does not work at all here
i'd love to use it, but w/ this stack my handsfree is reconized sometimes, sometimes i have to pair the devices every time i start my car, and i can NEVER place calls with the combination mda2 with networx bt manager installed.
maybe someone has the same experiences and can report them

Hey guys. I have an XDA II and the Motorola Bluetooth headset. I gave up trying to use the headset before the updated XDA II ROM as it was very temperamental to say the least. Now I have updated the ROM its much better but I still have problems. If I am dialling out and put the headset on first then its fine, transfers to the headset etc. If I am wearing the headset and then take a call its fine, transfers to headset etc. But if I am not wearing the headset, say it’s in its case and the arm is closed then I get a call, I open the arm and stick the headset on and answer a call and nothing. Wont transfer to headset and I need to use the phone. Not good when driving! Is this still a XDA II problem? Have I set it up wrong or is the headset not working right? Bascially I need to have the arm open on the headset at all times for it to work like it should (like it did on my T68i) and its very annoying? Any ideas?
This is the headset http://www.motorola.com/mdirect/software/ss_html_docs/bluetooth/bluetooth_headset_info.pdf
Thanks in advance
Have you installed bluetooth tools? Unbond your headset then rebond after installing bluetooth tools.
What the best place to get the bluetooth tools from? Sorry if this has already been asked. And are they free??
Thanks
Yeah I did try bluetooth tools but it did not seem to make any difference maybe its just my headset, it was like one of the first Bluetooth headsets out :? I dunno...
You can get Bluetooth tools from...http://www.angeltowns.com/town/bluetooth/
And it seems to be free
Thanks for that.
However, I could not find the settings button, Just a display on the screen. What are the 1 & 2 buttons for??
:?
Yeah the only changes you see are when adding new devices like headsets etc as far as I know. I thought the same as you, went through all the options looking for it hehe. Those two things on the screen are something to do with selecting different settings for bluetooth to conserve battery like always on or auto off. I am not too sure as I removed it when it did not fix my problem!
Yeah, I removed it too. It caused me all sorts of problems with connecting my bluetooth jabra bt200!
Hey guys,
I use this tool: Pocket Bluetooth Tools
Latest version.
But I only use it for the Active Sync profile.
No BT headset!!
Everytime I get a call or make one my Bluetooth connection goes ON.
I don't want this because it consumes a lot of power and its not needed as I don't use a BT headset.
Can any one tell me how I can disable the Bluetooth ON when a call is being made...?
Thanks
and if you uninstall it, is your headset one of the models that dont work natively with the xda?
the purpose of BT Tools, is to enable the BT on calls . . . if you dont want it just uninstall it.
Or you can try unticking it on the today settings (dunno if it'll disable the function or just disable the today plugin)
hope this helps
Hey Guys,
I'm trying to setup my Jabra BT250 on the XDA2 with imate rom 1.72. After bonding, everything works perfectly; However, if I turn off the phone's bluetooth or turn off the headset, I can no longer use the headset.
I have to go through the whole bonding process again before I can use the headset once more.
I have also tried Pocket Bluetooth Tools with the same exact results.
Not sure what is going on.
Found a workaround... All you need to do is click on the Bluetooth Icon, then click on the Bonded Devices tab then close that window. It'll enable you to use the headset again.
But I hope it's only a temporary fix and that someone has a permanent fix out there.
Hey...I also go thru the tedious task of clicking icons to on/off the bT headset.
Enter PocketZenPhone...
It save you the trouble of doing this...
I'm sure you'll find the thread and dicussions on the active thread on the homepage. Its cool. 8)
Thanks... I notice that it works fine if you give it a few seconds before trying to answer.
I need to do more testing
Hi,
i noticed everytime i turn off bluetooth (in order to spare battery time) it reactivate itself alone after a call... is this normal ? does anybody else experience this problem ?
(ps : i have pocket bluetooth tools, but i don't think that s the problem... is it??)
Thanks for any help
It is, and its not a bug, its a feature Its so you can answer a call using your bluetooth headset.
If you dont have a headset its obviously useless to you, but PBT is not under development any more, so you kind of stuck with the way it works now, or to un-install it.
Surur
Ok. i just had to read in fact the guide http://www.bluetooth.jazztel.es/guide_e.html to see that it can turn it back to off if BT is not used after 60 seconds...that s a good idea
Too pity they stopped development, it helped me a lot in the set up of the BT for activesync via BT and for set up of BT GPS...
anyway, thanks for the hint. (it gave me the idea to look a little bit further
Have a nice day!
I use PBT and I use the 60 second feature. What I found with my o2 clip bt headset is that the headset seems to lose connection to the phone after a short while regardless of the 60sec rule. Sometimes it would happen just before receiving or dialing a number.
Very annoying.
Cheers
Anthony
