Hi all,
I have a HTC Touch HD and I am using both Destinator and NDriver navigation programs.
Recently, I purchased a bluetooth headset (HTC BH M300) which supports A2DP.
Now, in top bar icons, I have another icon displayed, indicating the ability to stream music. I have a problem though…
All my device sounds (except of the incoming calls of course) are now streamed to the headset. When I use the navigation programs, the voice with directions come trhough the headset and not the speaker (like when I was using a non A2DP headset).
This is annoying because I don’t like having to wear the headset at all times while driving. I need to hear to the driving directions through the speaker and talk with the headset when in a call.
Is there a way to solve this?
Go to start/settings/connection/bluetooth and on your a2dp bluetooth headset uncheck set as wireless stereo , to remain only set as headset device

Dear All,
I'm pretty new to this forum and to the Wizard as well.
I'm using Navigon Navigator 5.2 on my T-Mobile Vario which works quite well. I do have one issue, well more an incovenience, while using the headset.
When Navigon is active and I accept a call with my bluetooth headset all system sounds, including Paula2 the nice navi lady, is muted. The phone call itself is diverted to the headset.
That make sense as I don't want to have Paula2 on my headset but I would like to have her on the speaker.
Is there any way to have phone calls served by the headset and system sounds, including program sounds, played on the speaker?
Any help is appreciated.
Cheers,
Thorsten
I just bought a headset for my Atom Exec and I can't work it all out, I want to listen to music from the memory card so I have set the bluetooth to Hands Free, Wireless Stereo and headset, all three are ticked. All is working fine but the only problem I have is when the phone rings you can only here it through the stereo headphones which makes sence but I can see this causing problems if I put the headphones down, I will miss calls as I want hear the phone ringing. Is there a way to make the phone ring also threw the speaker on the phone as well while using the headphones?
Unfortunately I don't think so. If you turn the Stereo Headset profile on all sound is routed to the headset. If someone knows how it would be great.
What you can do instead is set the phone to vibra + ring mode so that if you don't have the headset on, at least the phone will still shake.
hi Seal,
which bluetooth headset did you get? i'm asking because i just got the atom (not exec) and can't get the BT to work as a wireless headset - it only works when making calls.
also, you mentioned 'wireless stereo' checkbox, i don't see this option in the atom but it could be an exec feature.
thanks.
Hi, I bought the Plantronics, I use them every day and love them, it is such a great thing to not have wires hanging around.

"I has an Atom", and I also have a mono, ordinary Bluetooth headset (Planex BT-03HS).
Seal: try turning off the Wireless Stereo profile, then getting this program called BlueMusic by Teksoft - it has an option you can uncheck that will allow the ringtone to come through its original source instead, while still routing music through your BT.
Yes, the program can do this even in unlimited trial mode - however, it only puts your music back on the BT band after a call in full-mode. I have no idea if this will work on stereo headphones like yours, but it's worth a shot.
Slamming_Sammy: With BlueMusic I can pipe stuff from TCPMP to bluetooth headset - which supports only handsfree - just fine, whilst still not missing a call. BlueMusic emulates the A2DP protocol so your phone doesn't have to. There's actually a free binary out there called BTAudio (which Bluemusic is based on), but its less stable than Bluemusic when it comes to disconnects and receiving calls.
Oh, and by the way, the Atom does support Wireless Stereo (A2DP). However, you can ONLY see it if your bluetooth headset has the profile as well (mine doesn't by the way). AFAIK only stereo headsets have this; even the newest BT2.0 mono headsets don't.
thanks a lot Ultimate. I was just about to try btaudio which by the way, works great, so I won't try bluemusic yet. so you're saying if my BT headphone is A2DP capable then I wouldn't need to run btaudio to route audio to my headset?
thanks.
Yes, that's what I'm saying.
Bluetooth stereo headsets are expensive, tho, AND the Atom is known to have dodgy A2DP support (except with BT2.0 devices), so you might want to hold out on the purchase.
I’m running the official HTC (Dutch) Windows Mobile 6 version on the HTC X7500.
I’m using a Motorola HT820 Stereo Bluetooth headset to listen to music by A2DP.
I’m using a Jabra BT5010 Bluetooth headset for voice calls.
Voicecalls with the BT5010 are no problem at all. Listening to music with the Motorola headset is no problem too, when the Jabra IS NOT connected (turned off) at the same time.
The Motorola stereo headset and the Jabra BT5010 can both be connected at the same time, they are even working (I can call with the Jabra and listen to music with the Motorola) but now and then the stereo music is lagging.
When it starts lagging in stereo audio playback it doesn’t seem to stop anymore. Sometimes the music continues the normal way, and sometimes the lags will come up again a few seconds later.
There are no more lags when I then shut down the Jabra headset.
Is there a way to solve this? It looks like some sort of “Bluetooth bandwith” issue since it only happens when both headsets are connected.
Please note that even though the Motorola HT820 can make voice calls too, I only checked the “Wireless Stereo” service to be used, and “Wireless headset” is only selected for the Jabra.
Adding/editing registry entries like BitPool, UseJointStereo, MaxBitPool, SampleRate and all WILL NOT resolve this problem, I’ve already tried that.
Thanks guys!!
Hi, I am owner of Touch HD and bluetooth headset Parrot MK6100, all works OK (when I paired THD with Parrot I can receive incoming call, music and sound to speaker in my car). My problem is how I can switch sound from navigation (iGO, Tom Tom or Sygic) only to speaker on Touch HD, because when I pair THD with Parrot and listen radio in CAR, Parrot always switch sound from navigation to car speaker for every voice command and it mute listen music and radio in my CAR for few second. (for incoming or outgoing calls it is OK, dont disturb me)
conclusion: I want listen navigation only in THD speaker when i paired it with bluetooth headset (i dont want disable A2DP protocol)
Thanks and sorry for my english

I don't think it's possible without exclusive handling for this in the application itself. The reason being that when you activate the A2DP protocol/connection the device routes all audio through the Bluetooth connection and basically disables all audio through the internal speaker.
I use my Hero in the car for sat nav, using Copilot. I also connect it via bluetooth to the stereo to give me hands-free calling.
The problem I have is that when I do, the sat nav voice doesn't come out of the speaker of the phone, but is routed to the stereo. I can hear it when I select bluetooth as the source on the stereo, but this means that I can't listen to the radio/CD/ipod and hear the sat nav directions.
I used to have exactly the same issue using TomTom on Windows Mobile, however there was an option there when it connected to the stereo to only use it as a headset, not for wireless music. I can't seem to find this option on the Hero.
There is also the known issue that the Hero doesn't support transfer of contacts over bluetooth - that's annoying but I can live with it, however the problem above is a real pain. Any ideas?
Think I found it - once you have paired a device, click and hold it under Bluetooth settings, then you have the option media - unclick this and all should be well! Still need to test it though.
Another method,
On my bluetooth car stereo I can "discnct Audio" seperately from "discnct Handsfree" and "discnct Phone"
Just FYI.
