This may sound weird, but does anyone know how to use the imate/xdaII as a bluetooth headset?
I am using pc to phone software and want to be able to wander round the room/house with my imate talking via bluetooth to the PC and to the pc-to-phone software on the PC.
I have a Sony Ericsson HBH-65 bluetooth headset but the battery life is TERRIBLE on it - talking for 30 mins on that will probably render the battery dead!
Looking forward to your comments!
this is not the answer to your querry but something related. when i bond my xda to my pc via bluetooth; to complete the pairing the xda asks you if you want to use the pc as a headset. out of kicks i pressed "ok" and when my phone rang the speaker of my laptop was the one which sounded. the bond between my xda and my o2 headset was gone. had to rebond the laptop and headset again...bottomline is that you can use the laptop as your "headset"...so from there maybe you can work something on the other way around?
cheers
Interesting!! The PC can be recognised by the phone as being a headset. Thanks for the response anyway - perhaps someone can make use of this.
In the bluetooth toolset that I have installed on my PC I can search for all devices that can be used as a headset - the HBH-65 appears in the search, but my XDAII doesn't.
Wondering whether someone has managed to tweak this to work.

i haven't tried plugging in a mike on my laptop; which means that if it does work you can actually use your pc as a loudspeaker for conference calls.
regarding: In the bluetooth toolset that I have installed on my PC I can search for all devices that can be used as a headset - the HBH-65 appears in the search, but my XDAII doesn't. - now that's a little strange. i use a bluetooth dongle and when i search for devices my xda comes up and not the headset...
i don't think you can use your regular bt headsets for laptop / pc use; read it in one of the topics here somewhere.
cheers
I've come across from my old v600 to the Wizard and whenever I activated my bluetooth headset to connect up to to the phone it would show a message on the screen and beep as well.
Anyone know of a tweak or a program that would do something similar on Windows Mobile 2005?
I can't rely on the flashing light of my bluetooth headset as it only flashes to indicate that it is on and searching for the last connected device, not that is has successfully connected.
I am having trouble getting my HTC Mogul to connect with car stereo by bluetooth for hands free talking. The stereo I have (http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/pna/v3/pg/product/details/0,,2076_310069882_291159553,00.html ) allows bluetooth enabled phones to connect to it and use handsfree over the car speakers. I had it successfully working with every other phone i've owned however i can't seem to get my mogul to pair with it. Any suggestions? I've tried enabling the bluetooth on stereo to "discoverable" and had my phone attempt to connect but it won't work. I've also made my phone "discoverable" and tried to have the stereo initiate the connection and still no luck.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Hi,
Some background:
I'm currently working on a carputer project. Everything is working wonderfully and right now I'm going through the final phase of having my HTC Universal (WM6) phone use the car speakers and microphone as headset.
On my computer I am running on Widcomm BT ver 5. The Universal phone is running the MS stack. I managed to pair and connect successfully with my WM6 device. The headset works very nicely both ways, but with a problem:
Whenever a phone call comes in the phone automatically answers the call without even asking me. It rings once then answers. This does not happen while not using a BT headset nor does it happen with my regular portable Samsung BT headset. My universal is set to never receive calls automatically on all profiles. I'm assuming the problem is in the Widcomm driver but there doesn't seem to be anything I can change in the software settings.
Does anybody know how to solve this problem? I obviously don't want every single call that comes in to get answered. I wouldn't even mind answering the call from the phone itself (and not from the PC) as long as the voice gets routed from the phone to the car stereo with the external mic.
Thanks!

Has anyone been able to get their Nexus to connect to their bluetooth headset, and also stream music to another device without skipping? I like to stream music while driving but I need the headset too.
It is working for me, at the moment my n1 is connected to my bluetooth headset and streaming music to my laptop via a2dp. no skipping. PC is showing up as connected to media audio and headset is showing up as connected to phone audio.
I paired and connected the bluetooth headset first, then the pc. once i connected the pc, the headset disconnected, but was still paired. I then reconnected the headset and the pc remained connected.
I would make a call to test, but it is a bit late here.

Thanks for the reply. When I do nearly the same process for my car I notice that it streams Pandora without any skips. The skips only occur when I play MP3s and even then it only happens once every 10 seconds or so.
Maybe it has to do with how often the headset and phone "refresh" with each other. I have a Blueant Z9, what headset were you using?
I'm using a Plantronics Explorer 233. Nothing fancy, I bought it a year ago for $30.
I haven't been able to run my factory handsfree (BMW) and a separate A2DP to work perfectly. Music always skips. If I turn Wifi off, it's an improvement, but still skips.
Also, my handsfree is pretty aggressive. Even if I disconnect it, it'll reconnect on its own. Only way to disable it is if I unpair it.
