Just curious will return/exchange item if needed. thanks in advance!!
Similar problem
I use a Plantronics m3200 with my Qtek 2020 and I experience that my headset turns off by itself. Previously, I used the headset with my Sony-Ericsson T68i without any problems.
I have heard some rumours that the 1.66.00WWE ROM is a bit buggy concerning some headsets.
Hi all
I received my xda exec yesterday, and most things seem to be OK, but I can't get it to work with my Motorola HS810 bluetooth headset. Does anyone know why this might be? If it's a total incompatibility thing, and I have to get a new headset, could anyone recommend a cheap but serviceable alternative?
Many thanks,
Carol
not sure about your headset but my sony headset worked fine
better than it did with my sony p900 infact as the pairing seems a lot more pernament where as with p900 i used to have to re pair the two almost every time i switched blutooth on
im now using jabra bt 800
excellent for me and the vibrate feature means you can leave it in pocket and use it as your phone to answer calls rather than getting exec out of its pouch, without walking round all day looking like an extra from star trek voyager or a dixons advert
Ah. Thank you. The Jabra was the one I was looking at as a possible alternative. I think I'll check that out. My husband's bluetooth headset also connected to my xda with no problems at all...so I think it must be the Motorola that's the problem. Maybe it's an earlier Bluetooth version or something...
I'm also using Jabra BT 800 and it's working fine with me till now.
I believe it's the best blue tooth head set we can ever use with universal.
Regards,
Unfortunately, I couldn't get a Jabra this afternoon, so I got a Bluetrek G2, and that works fine with it. So long as I can be handsfree in the car and do voice-dialling, I'm happy!
Heres another really pi**ing off bug in wm5
Sometimes, it transfers the call to the bluetooth headset....but....heres what happens -
1. It just transfers the "audio" (the other person's voice) to the bluetooth headset's speaker
2. The Mic of the bluetooth headset DOESNT work
3. I could use the jasjar to speak just like i hadnt transfered the call to the bluetooth headset at all....in other words, the speaker and the mic of the jasjar are functional!
Thats really wierd, and it seems to be happening all the more often of late....is anyone else having this same problem?
I really wonder how MS could release wm5 when it has soooo many god damn many bugs....i wonder if they're even doing something about it....grrrr :evil:
thanks in advance!

I just started experiencing something similar. Every bluetooth call I make has no mic audio. This is not my bluetooth earpiece as I have used 3 different earpieces and two have no mic audio and one works fine.
The two that did not work are Motorola H700 & HS850. The one that worked was a Jabra BT800 but I lost it somewhere.
I have been using bluetooth headset for almost a year, dayly, without any problem.
Me too. That is what is so strange. I've been using my Universal for about 1 year and all of a sudden, last week, I start having this problem.
Using Nokia HS 12 w with Ivan's beta4 no such probs at all
Hi all
Several of us are having issues with using Bluetooth Headsets successfully with the HTC Wizard. (See http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=330315 for info.)
The basic issue is the BT Mic volume is incredibly low, so people cannot hear you unless you shout directly into the mic (so you have to take the headset off your ear!).
Have you got a BT Headset working with a really good and tested microphone volume to the other caller? If so we'd like to hear from you on what make/model of headset you use.
I have the O2 Xda Mini S and have tried these headsets without success:
Jabra BT200
Jabra BT500
Carphone Warehouse generic
Imate K-JAM and no issues with :
Motorola HS850 (the mic does work but it is rather weak as per my experience and various reviews).
Labtec MobileFreedom (excellent headset and works perfectly with K-JAM and MS VC).
I am using a Plantronics 640 and it works great.
Hmm, thanks guys. Anyone using a Jabra headset with any success? Maybe it's a Jabra/Wizard incompatibility. :?

same here, with Cingular 2.25 rom.
I use a Motorola H300 I picked up for $50 at radio shack and I have never had a problem with mic volume - I have specifically asked several people and they have all said they can hear me fine. I must say that its speaker is not the loudest -- I can hear ok but if you need to be able to hear over a jackhammer or something this may not be the headset for you. All in all I would say a great headset for the price, and it just works, although it is obviously on the low end...
I am using the T-mobile 2.26 ROM...
It may be the Jabra.
I have both a Plantronics V510 and a Motorola H610 and both work beautifully.
The only problem that I have is wind. :wink:
Plantronics 320 working great
I use the Jabra BT200 with no problems at all. I've also used the Plantronics 640 but didn't like it as well but that was only a form factor issue not in its performance. I've tested it by leaving voice messages and while the sound quality is different than the built in mic it's not objectionable, just different.

Just to confirm, you're definitely using the Jabra with the Wizard? If so what version of the Wizard?
We have the problem on the O2 Xda Mini S, and have tried both ROMs v1.x and 2.x.
Try calling yourself on a landline. Do you not find the audio quieter on the Jabra, but if you take it off your ear and talk directly into the mic hole, it sounds correct?
I am using a Logitech Mobile traveler. Works great.
Weird, some of you here have the Motorola HB850 and Jabra BT200 working fine, yet we at the other thread have the issue with these devices.
Maybe it's a question of ROMs. We use either O2 v2.21.4.101 or Mr Clean v2.3 (non-UK).
What ROMs do those of you with no Bluetooth Mic issues have installed?
stock 2.25 cingular
I use a Motorola HS820 with mine and it works perfect. 8)
Stock Cingular 2.25 ROM as well.
Plantronics Voyager 510 here @ Amazon for $45.
Works beautifully and I've even been told a couple of times that I'm speaking too loudly.
I'm using the Jabra BT200 very succesfully on my MDA Vario.
It paired immediately, never had any problems and the sound is perfect on both sides.

same here - used it on several different roms too
I have a Jabra BT8010 that worked good with my Bell HTC 6800. I upgraded the ROM to 2.17.666.1 because it addressed a serious issue I had, the phone would lock up on long phone conversations. Now the BT8010 does not work.
It connects and pairs OK. In stereo mode Windows Media Player works. When I place a phone call or answer a phone call, there is no sound in the headset, only the HTC unit. I also notice it continually locks the phone up too.
I tried the 1.33 and the 1.40 firmware from Jabra and neither made a difference. Is anyone else having this problem? Thanks.
