Hi everybody,
For this 15 aout I've an idea ... but pearhaps it already exist ?!
I'm a GSXR rider, sometime my wife come with me but only sometime 'cause she can't speak directly with me, she must wait a stop to open her helmet ...
So, my idea that could interest more than one biker : use our pda as a gate between two or more bluetooth hearsets ...
Is it a good idea ?!?
I'am not a programmer, so is someone interest to developpe it ?
could you not just buy a "bike mic" or similar peice of kit??
For those that aren't in the know, it's a handsfree kit (also comes in bluetooth form) specifically designed for bikers. It also has the option to use as an intercom between rider and pillian.
yes I could ! but when you think everybody (or nearly) got a headset... And on a sportive bike like GSXR, the less you are heavy the best you are : you have just the place to store a kinder with his suprise not more !!!
and more, now you can find bluetooth helmet, if you couldn't use your headset when you ride... A friend of mine had think about to buy one ... When he was ride to go to his work, his phone ring and vibrate in his pocket... he thinks he will listen the message when he will arrived 30min later ... that's what he do ... On his meesage it was his girlfriend : "it's for now... back !!!". If he hangup on this call he will be able to assist her girlfriend to deliver his sun ...
Some time, some ideas could change a life ! (that beautiful... but it's not mine ! )

This is more FYI others.... when I started looking at new phones some times ago to intergrate in to my car system getting one that was able to do BT headset and com port at the same time was important - and in fact to my knowllage the IJam was the first.
Any way as it seems no ones broached the subject and at the time I would have killed for this info I'm please to say I have tried both my BT carkit and GPS with Tomtom at the same time and it works... I'm currious if I can get 3 concurent connections now
Any way - probably no biggy for most here - its just my was of helping any newbie that comes along searching for this info... like I did once.

Hi Terran,
Out of interest, which BT car kit have you got? I've got to replace two Nokia kits now we've got the 9100's. I've looked at the parrot kits, but am using voice commander and would like a kit that works as well as my Scala bt headset.
Regards

The Parrot CK3000 - Had it since it came out and never looked back. Used to cost me ( cos no company even my current one which expects me to travel has ever give me a car kit ) a fortune before BT having to upgrade to specific kits... and they where a pain to install.
Parrot - Can't fault em - but my only tip is buy the upgrade cables... I've upgraded mine several times and it has helped depending on the issue.... for example..
I've not upgraded it this time how ever the other half found the quality of sound from me ( ie in the car ) better than with my T610...
Hope that helps - PS if you want GPS some of the higer models have it built in.
Terran
PPS Any one with a basic under standing of plug socket a in to socket b can do the install in about 10 mins or so.... the worst part is getting the radio out.
Thanks for the reply Terran.
My only concern (aside from the Parrot compatibility, which you've cleared) is that with two 6310i's, if my personal phone rang, I could ping the work one out of the kit and plug in my own within a couple of seconds. I can't find a way to disconnect the 9100 from my BT headset (which operated in hands-free mode too).I asked here, and after 70 views, there have been no replies... I don't know if there's a quick way on the Parrot kit, and if so, how fast I could "connect" the other handset, or, if I'd have to have two kits, one for each phone...

Never tried but my Parrots update is supposed to support up to 3 handsets... you can set which one gets priority...
I think they have a forum so may be its worth having a chat with em.
Terran
If you have a CK3000 then this thred ( especially post #20 ) is worth noting...

Dear Sir,
Thanks for visiting our forum.
Concerning your request, with the K750and W800 it's not possble to use the phone's voice recognition system
with the CK3000. This issue to the phone software and unfortunately only Sony Ericssson can make some improvments
on it.
However with the CK3000 evolution, you have the possibility to send contacts from the mobile phone to the car kit.
Thanks to this function, you can use the car kit voice recognition system and no more the phone voice recognition system : we are no more depend on the mobile phone. The knob of the evolution's remote control allows you to select this function by spoken menus. It's the same way like for the CK3100 however instead of a graphic indications you have voice prompts. This function was not possible with with the CK3000.
To change your CK3000 into a CK3000 evolution. You just need to change the car kit software and to change the buttons.
However the software update have to be done using a Parrot Serial cable or by Bluetooth using a Parrot Flash Kit.
That's why we ask to send us the unit.
If you have the buttons and a way to make the update , the transformation into a CK3000 evolution is possible.
However for technical reasons, please send us before an email to our technical support : [email protected] .
Some situations can cause bad issues and it will be wise to check with us if the transformation is possible.
Please note : Before to make the software update, please erase the car kit memory. You just need to press the green and red button of the car kit at the same time: you will hear MEMORY ERASING PLEASE WAIT and then your can release the buttons. Once you hear PLEASE PAIR DEVICE, the car kit is OK for the update.
Best Regards

In other words if you have the flash kit ( which I do ) all you need to do is upgrade the buttons for £18 and flash the ROM and you have a new upto date Carkit...

PROFS OF THE XDA-WORLD, PLEASE HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP!
i have my htc tytn since 2 weeks. i connected my Samsung WEP-150 bluetooth headset (worked previously with Samsung tels, and qtek 9100). Now the issue is: after hard reset the headset works properly: push-beep-i say the name-he says the name and calls. And this is the last time it works until the next hard reset. The issu comes up with Nokia BH-200 headset too. The unit opens the audio gateway (can hear the noice), but closes it immediately, so i cant hear the beep, and say the name into the headset. If the unit is in my pocket, i cant say the name loud enough!
What i allready tried:
-upgrade to ext 106
-upgrade to jasjam 1.20...
-and with the original (ext 105) firmware the bttoggle prog.
The bttoggle (i red about it here) is a funny prog. Everybody wants to listen music on his unit, but i just wanted to use as designed. If i run the bttoggle 2 times (first is audio gateway on, second switches back to voice speed dial), the stuff works till the next softreset (or sometimes it loses the setup in suspend mode too).
Anyway, i think this is not good so.
PLESE HELP ME!!!
thx
peterke
PS: one more question: why is a com port in the headset profile there? is it useful? the dealer told me to switch it of, and only use the handsfree port.
sorry bout ur head set
I bought the same one that was already used but i cant activate it cuz i dont have the code,are they all the same code?were can i get the code to activate it ,do you know?i would appreciate the help if you have it!I know you said it sucks but i would still like to try it!
I have an idea for a program in PPC phone.
-I want to use one ppc device and two bluetooth headsets.
-With a program i want to talk from the one to the other headset. (image two people on a bike going for a trip and not talking for 2 hours).
I'm talking something like walkie-talkie but not with two devices but two headsets and one device.
Is it possible ??? ...and i'm not talking something like [email protected] program because it needs 2 ppcs.
\Thank you
Would you have enough range on Bluetooth to do this?
(image two people on a bike going for a trip and not talking for 2 hours)
I think that is less than 5 meters.

That would be the greatest idea for motorcyclers (means me 2) . I'm waiting for just a confirmation if it is possible... of course having program would be much nicer...
good idea
is it possible to travel with your mates with your bikes and stay close in 10 metres range ??
with my mates every time we go somewhere we travel with speeds round to 160-260 klm/hour....
you think is safe to stay close in an othere bike with theese speeds??
i dont think that is a good idea
check for something like this
http://www.alan-germany.com/lpd/lpduebersicht.php3?vid=1273936179
with hands free each one and with working range up to 2000m
or theese with range up to 15miles!!

but we are asking for a tool to communicate with your passenger, that is sitting just after you .
To talk with another bike I think the WIFI connection would be more useful or even GSM (GSM is probably not possible to programm).

i'm talking allways for an extra source of communicating with passenger and with an other bike..
but if you have a wife isn't a good idea talking with her...and on bike
The whole idea is to use one PPC device and two bluetooth headsets. Just the program to open a communication channel between the two headsets like the "bluetooth router v1.05).
I think its not difficult for a developer to create such a program.
I used the "bluetooth router" when i was driving the bike and i had the iGO on.
I was not watching the screen but i was able to listen to directions while i was trying to find a road. That was when i got the idea about the bluetooth communication.
I'm going to drive 160 or 200 klm /h and having conversation with my mate (wife/girlfriend/whatever) but in slow speeds you can speak or make a comment in something you see at the road or even listen to some music.
Its very boring without talking.
Please answer ... THANKS
hmmmm....
...possible with two devices and two headsets, using THIS....
Yep, you would need two devices and two headsets. Don't believe you can communicate with 2 headsets from one ppc simultaneously.
bump...I'm riding,too. It's quite interesting!
Hi
I have my HTC Touch already 2.5 years, and untill now I've been very happy with it (strong, good agenda, ...)
But since a few weeks, I have a company car (Mercedes C), and I do not succeed to have my Touch working with the Bluetooth.
Problem
- 2 out of 3 times, the sound is horrible (like some parts of the sound are cut away)
- 1 out of 3 times it works perfect
- sometimes the connection is interrupted (during calling, or during standby)
- when I press the buttons of my car, the phone is responding with some delay from time to time (unlike with a Nokia, with that phone it goes flawless)
What I already tried
- I could connect the phone to the car (but it went not as good as with the Nokia)
- could even exchange contacts
- my old Nokia works fine via bluetooth with the car
- I already tried to adjust the incoming sound and outgoing sound levels. No improvement
- I can select the option "serial port" in the bluetooth settings for the Mercedes connection in my phone, but this doesn't help
- handsfree is selected
- I installed the hotfix for dropped calls (no improvement)
Does anyone recognizes this problem? Is it possible to get around this problem.
Buying a new one is also an option, but I do find one that I like within a reasonable budget. So I really want to fix this!
Thanks in advance for your help.
Found the problem by accident. The WIFI is apparently blocking the BT, so it works if I disable the WIFI
now finding an application that gives me custom profiles, would be nice.
you can try G-profile.
anyway, why not just ask your company to give you a iPhone4, they gave you Mercedes C, iPhone4 is just peanut compare to Mercedes C.

Thanks for the hint!
About the iPhone, our mobile phone policy is not that iPone-minded: every year we get €60; with that money, we have to look ourselves for a phone.
And to my opinion, an iPhone is too big. I like the size of my HTC Touch.
my request stems from the fact that they are in possession of a smartwatch no.1 d5 but really for me it is currently unusable because you can not answer incoming calls on the smartwatch ( Android ) strangely connected to an Iphone works , is now a little that after buying the drawer put it , I was wondering if there is a modified ROM that allows the reception and conversation with the smartwatch , the thing that makes me more angry and that there are smartwatch from $ 8 to make all this !!!! I thank you in advance I'm sure many others are waiting for a ROM like that.
Currently no ROM exists for that purpose.
It seems that fundamental pieces of software are missing inside the bluetooth stack so that only the vendor could add them in.
Yea I bought pay and go sim, installed call forward and text forward, thats all I wanted, leave bulky phone at home when not needed.
It is ok , but I think it was not an impossible task to enable the smawrtwatch to receive calls as a headset so you can use a hands-free car or even better when you ride the bike would be wonderful to look at and see who you smawrtwatch calls and maybe meet and converse , I apologize but I do not think that was too much to ask , so they could settle two categories of users those like me who use only one SIM and not having to move between smarwatch or smartphone , maybe I'm wrong ....
