[Q] Plantronics B/T issue with Froyo on HD2 - HD2 General

So far I'm pretty happy with Froyo on my phone. I've got the barebones WM for droid rom, radio version 2.12.50.02_2and a FAT32 SD card I freshly formatted prior to installation.
It's great, save for the fact that my plantronics discovery 975 headset doesn't seem to play nicely with Froyo. It pairs just fine, but I don't get any audio and the phone app seems to lockup when I attempt to answer a call while paired. This is via either the button on the handset or the headset.
I know Android for HD2 is still in dev, so I"m willing to accept this is just a problem with no fix. However, if there is a bug out there I can fix to get my headset working, I would love to know about it.
Any help would be appreciated.

Jawbone 2 will not pair with Fuze

I am having a problem pairing a Jawbone 2 with my Fuze. I put the Jawbone 2 into pairing mode, then try to add a new Bluetooth device, but the Fuze can't find it. I recently installed the RRE 21231 WWE 6.5 rom, but don't think that is the problem because the Fuze still pairs with my Pioneer AVIC-F500BT without any problems. Anybody have any ideas?
I believe the RRE roms have compatibility issues with bluetooth headset.. Not sure if there was a fix in his thread. My problem was Touch Pro with RRE (few versions of ROMS), pairs and connected nicely with my Jawbone PRIME. Issue is I can't make calls with it. The calls are still on the phone. When I try to enable the headset option on a call, nothing happens.
Funny thing is sometimes when calls come in, I can pick it up with the Jawbone.. sometimes..
Anyway, I'm now using EnergyROM latest build. No issues with compatibility.
I have no problems with mine pairing to my JB2... The only issues I have with my JB is low sound with my TP. I just can't get the setting right even though I have it all on max volume it still doesn't seem like it is. Try pairing the JB to another phone you might have a faulty JB...

Bluetooth connection issues

I have a Jawbone Prime headset, and I'm having trouble with it connecting to my rooted Eris, and when it does connect sometimes, it doesn't work properly, I'll hear the ringing through the headset, but have to use the handset to talk, and it randomly disconnects. I didn't have this problem with other phones and the same headset, and ideas as to what could be wrong with this?

I had the same problem with my pioneer radio after rooting. It worked perfect prior. I have tried every ROM there is and the only ones that seem to correct the issue are the cynagonmod based ROMS. I am running ELB 2.5 now and it works great. Only drawback is it wont connect to my work exchange due to security policies where as the other 2.1 roms will. Hope this helps
Thanks for the advice
Thanks for the advice, I'll have to give it a try, I love the HTC Eris, but can't stand using it without a headset. Now if I can only get it to work on my car head unit as well...lol Have to love bluetooth... Can't live with it, can't live without it

Can't Find Bluetooth Headset

I've got a Plantronics Discovery 925 headsset I used on my G1 all the time. With the Vibrant, though, it's not even discovering it. The device never shows up on the phone's bluetooth scanner.
I've read about some people having bluetooth issues. Is this something anyone else has more info on? Should I return the phone (could my bluetooth be broken)? Or is this a software issue I hope a new BT Stack can fix?
Any info would be great!
thanks,
jeff
I am having problems with the vibrant finding my car.. I had both the my touch and my touch slide and both worked fine ... Any suggestions.
My Motorola S9 headset (not the newer HD Version) works better on my Vibrant than they did on the G1. Bluetooth was laggy as hell with these on the G1, almost to the point of not being able to use them. So far no lag,controls work fine.Haven't used them for a call yet. Avatar sounds really good through em!! Now I need the extended battery like I had on the G1.......
My Vibrant can't find my headset (a Samsung) or my hands-free speakerphone (a Jabra Cruiser). I'm going to bring them to a store sometime this week and see if their in-store Vibrant has the same issues with my bluetooth stuff.
I've just started getting the GPS problems that everyone is complaining about, but bluetooth has never worked with my devices.

Bluetooth Audio Problem

Hello.
I have just bought a Dell Streak in Dubai. It was android 2.1 and I was able to immediately update it to 2.2. It works beautifully, is fast and does everything I throw at it and more.
Problem:
Bluetooth audio simply does not work. I have tried pairing it with my car kit, a nokia headset, a jabra headset and a generic bluetooth headset. It pairs fine with the headsets and phone calls seem to go to the headset but there is no audio in the headset. The person on the other side also cannot hear anything. And after i press the bluetooth button during the call to bring the call back to the phone, the headset(or car kit) seems "locked" and only gets free when I switch off bluetooth on the streak.
Bluetooth file transfer works fine and I have tested it with a samsung galaxy s. But it doesnt work for phone calls. It is a major problem as it is difficult to use the device without the bluetooth on a regular basis and especially in the car.
I would appreciate any help in this matter as I love the device but as I spend considerable amount of my time driving, it is getting very annoying.
I had originally posted this on the Dell support forum and I was recommended to post it in the XDA forum.
Thanks

I use my dell streak with my motorola s10 bt headset and my car bt handsfree system and have no issues at all.
Maybe try un-pairing all devices and repairing them and testing then one at a time and see is that helps. Askari when a device is connected go to settings, wireless, bluetooth and see if you can tap and hold on the connected bt item and see if you can adjust its settings.
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
Thanks for the assist but i tried unpairing and pairing but it did not work. Not too many options in the menus to change so I am pretty much stuck here.
As I have updated to android 2.2 from 2.1 which came with the phone, would a factory reset send the system back to 2.1 and then i can check whether bluetooth works or not? I mean, I cant think of anything else to do.
Is it possible that something i have downloaded or installed on the sd card is causing audio conflict with the bluetooth audio?
Thanks

Bluetooth Headset Choppy Voice Quality

I am a Flash-a-Holic and have used every port available to HD2. Be it WM6, Android SD Card Builds, Android NAND Builds, WP7 Builds.
For a daily use I require the use of Bluetooth Headset for Calls when I am on the road in my car and even at work where it is usually difficult to take the phone out of my pocket for answering incoming calls, hence the Bluetooth Headset.
Although after using so many ports I sincerely think that the smoothest experience I have had on my HD2 is with the WP7 Roms, it is difficult for me to use it since Bluetooth Audio Service has some problems which I have not been able to find a solution to.
Mainly the problem is that I can hear the caller fine but my voice goes over as very choppy like the connection is breaking up or something. I have done the following in order to locate this problem:
1) Changed Bluetooth Headsets (Tried it with SE MW600, Jabra BT3030, Blackberry 665)
2) Tried all the WP7 Roms
3) Tried different SD Cards
4) Tried registry tweak suggested by XBMOD in his Rom thread
5) Tried turning off XBOX services
6) Tried toggling between 2G 3G, Data ON, Data OFF
So nothing works. My reason for starting this thread is to draw attention of the DEVs towards this issue so that they can look it over and would eventually find a solution.
Would appreciate any suggestions or workarounds that anyone has to offer.
Otherwise, thanks to all the DEVs for a brilliant WP7 Rom for our HD2's
I'm having exactly the same problem. It happens with my car blue tooth, as well as my Yabra and Plantronics headset. This thread will display a lot of the same problems:

For me it is the only thing I'm not satisfied with on my phone, but it is important enough to maybe have to switch back to WM 6.5. I hope there will be a fix soon.
I think it has something to do with noise cancellation. When something is talking, it looks like my mic is shutting down. When there is some background noise from the other caller, my voice is scrambled badly...
I am also facing the exact problem. Sometimes it works quite good (when the other side is quite silent), but when the other caller is using his carkit or headset and thus has a lot of noise, the bluetooth voice connection keeps dropping. I can hear the other side quite good thoug.
Would the new Windows Phone 7 update fix this? This really is the one thing missing from this phone!
As far as I have read, the nodo update won't fix this problem. It is really starting to annoy me that there isn't a word from MSFT about a possible fix.... This is really unworkable...
Does MW600 works after NODO ?
Someone has test with NODO ?
I wanna buy MW600 for my Omnia 7.
