On my HTC TyTn when I use my motorola ht820 they work great for music and phone calles but when I receive a call while using them my tytn wont ring out the loudspeaker of the phone it just rings through the motorola head set, how can I change this so the phone knows to route the ringtone to the phone and the headset? I have all through the reg to find something.
HOW??????????????????
How Can I do this please someone help
Ive got the same question.

Ditto. For some reason when I first connected my headset it rang through the phone as well, but now that is no longer the case and I cannot figure out how to get that functionality back. Any tips anyone?
Searched the Blackstone forums but did not find any post/thread regarding this particular problem .....
I'm a new Blackstone owner (and a newbie on this forum). Love the device but one major issue I have is that ringtones dont come through via the BT headset. I have assigned different ringtones to people and based on the tone of an incoming call, I should be able to screen calls without looking at the phone ..... or so I thought.
My phone : Blackstone (ROM 1.14.405.X). Dec/7 hotfix from HTC installed (since ROM is older than 1.19)
My BT : Jabra BT3030 stereo headset (AVRCP works fine)
Can anyone please help ?
Thanks !!
Try assigning a long ringtone as there is a lag and this may be cutting off the ringtone
Thanks winwiz. Tried that without luck. I only get the default beep-beep in the BT headset warning me of the incoming call ......
Bump !!
Can anyone of you folks help me with this ?
I tried a few tricks - set a looooong ringtone (2 minute song) ...... selected a single ringtone for all contacts ...... but no luck, still get only beep-beep via the BT stereo headset for incoming calls, while the phone itself plays the correct ringtone.
Funny thing though - music comes through fine on the BT (A2DP works fine) and I'm also able to control music without issues (AVRCP also works fine).
Any help/suggestions are welcome !!
Cheers !!

I'm a little out of touch with the very latest gear - BUT - would the headset output the ringtone?? Surely it just has it's own ringtone that is the only one it can play, whenever a call comes in?
It seems to me that to send the .mp3 file over bluetooth to a device that doesn't seem big enough to have a full codec supply would tax the Bluetooth bandwidth somewhat!

A2DP is used for stereo music, not for talking. Maybe its just not possible (with your headset). But I'm quite unexperienced with bluetooth headsets .

Hello Riceburner .... today's Bluetooth headsets do indeed play your phone ringtone. But it should have A2DP feature that allows music to stream in and your phone should also have A2DP to "send" the music to your headset.
The .mp3 file does not get sent to the bluetooth .... the mp3 plays on your phone as a ringtone when you get a call and the A2DP feature then streams it to your BT headset where you then hear the ringtone.
This can have a lag of even a few seconds, hence the suggestion from winwiz a few posts back to use a long playing ringtone.
johnpatcher - A2DP is indeed not for talking, but it is necessary for the ringtone to play in your headset until you answer the call at which time the traditional bluetooth kicks in to handle voice.
Cheers !!
Can anyone help ?
Here is a consolidation of the issue and my attempts to overcome :
My phone : Blackstone (ROM 1.14.405.X). ROM date Oct/24/2008
Any hotfixes : Yes - since ROM is older than 1.19, applied the Dec/7/2008 hotfix from HTC that addresses screen freeze during multi clicks.
My Bluetooth headset : Jabra BT3030 stereo headset (A2DP and AVRCP works fine with the Touch HD phone)
Problem : Phone ringtone does not play through the BT headset. I get only a "beep-beep" on the BT headset for incoming calls, while the phone itself plays the correct ringtone.
Tried the following :
1) set a long ringtone (2 minute long song) as suggested by winwiz. No luck
2) Selected a single ringtone for all contacts. Still no luck
3) Paired the exact same BT headset with another phone (symbian OS) and it works perfectly - A2DP, AVRCP as well as phone ringtone comes through via the headset. Frustrated !!!
Any help/suggestions are welcome !!
Could this be a WinMo issue as opposed to a Blackstone bug ? Found the following thread ........
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310438
One way to find out ...... can folks spare a few minutes to post their experience in using A2DP heasets with the Blackstone - were you successfully able to hear ringtones via your headset ?
Cheers !!
*Bump*
Can folks oblige by posting their experience using A2DP headsets with the Blackstone ? Were you able to hear ringtones via your headset ?
Thanks !!

I have a BT headset too that can A2DP. (SE DS-980) I don't think its meant for it to transfer ringtones as what one poster mentioned. Anyway, whenever my phone rings, I can hear the tone from my phone and a common single tone from the headset then the contact info is displayed in the LCD so I know who's calling. Another option is if you have MSVC, you can set it to alert you who is calling and only through the BT headset when it connected. That way you'd know who's calling you.

thanks kieboy
guess i'll install MSVC
I use my A2DP headset to listen to music on my embedded helmet speakers while in my bike. And of course, to answer calls too. So, looking to the phones screen isn´t a option and the custom ring tones would be VERY usefull
but, if there's no other work around...

Does anyone know if it is possible to enable ringtones and smstones when I have my headset inserted ?
I mean: You should be able to hear the phone ring or your smstone as there is no headset attached..
The reason is that I use my phone as mp3 player at work. But when I take of the headset, there is no chance of hearing if I get a call or a sms. Plugging and unplugging the headset all the times makes me go insane..
I hope there is a tweak or an option to solve my problem!
TIA
i'd like to have such a tweak too.
ive got a desktop cradle with line out but no speaker connected. the phone thinks a headset is attached...so i cant hear any incoming calls while having the td2 in the cradle.
Hey guys,
after a few days testing the BT headset connection in all different versions, i cannot get the LG to play the SMS sound from the device when my headset is connected. It plays the SMS sound only in the headset.
Phone calls are correct... the device rings and the headset makes it's typical sound.
I have a Jabra headset and it worked well with my HD2.
Can someone confirm this?
Any ideas how to solve this?
