Bluetooth Issues with CM7 - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I have a mytouch 4g running the newest CM7- RC4. Before that I was running the nightlies every since CM7 came out. My issue has been for the last few builds, since RC3 or so. I have 2 bluetooths devices, a jawbone icon and a moto rocker hd9. Both of them connect and pair no problem and they both work great with music. Problem is with phone calls. When the phone rings, I here it ringing through the bluetooth but when I answer it, nothing. I can't here and neither can they. Then when I hang up I hear the call end noise in the headset. Any ideas??? I have double checked that the check box in bluetooth settings for phone calls is checked. I have tried numerous times to unpair, forget and repair and it still does this with both devices. Never used to do this. An ideas would be greatly appreciated. I love CM but I need my bluetooth for my line of work. Thanks

Bluetooth and Sony HBH-DS980

I have now tried 3 different bluetooth headsets with my AT&T Tilt with Stock Rom. First was my BlueAnt V12 I used great with my RAZR then I bought a Motorola S705 now I have Sony HBH-DS980.
With the BlueAnt V12 the audio was low and tinny and couldn't hear the caller
The Motorola S705 sounded good minor choppiness but the callers couldn't hear me worth a damn. Both of these devices paired great and kept connection, only the Motorola would loose connection if I got a system alarm or if I was streaming music. For just handset operation it worked great. With the Sony it seems to be a crap shoot when they are going to work. I installed JetWare to enable Caller ID Name and Ringtone through headset and when I pair them the first time they work great all day long. However if I turn bluetooth off on the phone and then back on I have issues with disconnecting and sound not going through headset for calls.
So I installed the new Official AT&T Rom from HTC's Site the other day hoping the bluetooth improvements they made would help. I decided to try JetWare again just to see if it worked, again I started having problems again. So I hard reset and didn't install the JetWare Extensions. For the first day everything worked great. Next day I fired it up it's up to it's old tricks of disconnecting after a call.
Anyone else having these issues? My state is going to be bluetooth only while driving in about 4 months so I really need bluetooth to work.
Can you charge the sony ds980 via usb?
No it has a real strange plug for charging
Hi, I have the Sony Ds980. I've experienced similar problems in the past.
check your Bluetooth settings on the phone: communication manager --> Settings --> bluetooth. Select your device (ds-980) but don't double click on it. and then check its mode: in that window, ensure that you have checkmarks in both options (i.e, Turn on bluetooth & make sure this device is visible to other devices). Sometimes, when you restart your bluetooth headset, the second option is left unchecked, thus causing disconnections between it and the device.
another option is to trigger the headset button. sometimes, when a call comes in, I would have to do this once or twice before it connects.
I think it is a bug.
i have the Jetware extension and MSVoice, and they help with the caller ID.
HTH,
rgds, Manny
I'm trying to decided between the DS980 and the Moto S9.
I'm so tired of wasting my money on crap.
Thanks I'll have a look at those settings, I just wish JetWare uninstalled nicely
I have been running it lately without JetWare and the only issue I am having this way is the wireless stereo portion disconnects after each Incoming call it does not do this if I place a call.
With JetWare I can sometimes keep it connected no matter what the issue is it connects but when I place a test call it rings on the headset but when I answer the call it isn't comming in on the headset it is still on the phone although the call button works and ringing on the headset works. It got to be a pain to have to place a few test calls to make sure the headset was working.

Well, that does it for me. The DS980 is officially off my list.

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

[Q] Bluetooth Problems

I have tried several different roms, kernals, and radios on my mytouch 4g and have the same bluetooth issue with all. It connects and pairs. Plays music and other sounds but when call comes through there is no sound. This is with my jawbone icon and my motorola hd9, both same exact problem. In the settings i have both media and phone calls checked. Any ideas????
I also just tried unrooting and restoring to stock, didn't help. Please help me.
I have been experiencing the same issues after installing CM 7.0.2 and RoyalGlacier 2.1.
The Bluetooth headset pairs to the phone easily. It can play music through them. When I try to make a phone call, I don't hear anything, and the headset shuts off.
The headset connects to my laptop and works without issues.
Did anyone find a solution to this? I have the same problem with the Virtuous Fusion ROM.

[Q] Jabra Extreme2 with Epic 4G causes phone to freeze

I have searched and searched and I am actually currently waiting two new Jabra Extreme2 headsets from Jabra.... but I don't have a lot of faith that the problem will be solved.
The scenario is simple.. Calling and listening to music is fine. The issue is on incoming calls, and only MOST of the time.
If the headset is on and connected (bluetooth) the ringtone will start to stutter and the announcement in the headset will be "call from " and a number instead of the actual name in the contact list. At this point the phone will be frozen. The call will roll to voicemail. The only way to shut the headphone up from repeating the number continuously is to turn it off. Once the headset is off, you can usually get to the pulldown and turn off bluetooth. It will take awhile (minute or two) to release, but it will. At this point you can turn on the headset and turn on bluetooth again and make a call without issue. Maybe even receive a call... but about 8 out of 10 calls will result in the above.
My wife and I each have an Epic 4g and a Jabra Extreme2 headset. The issue is the same on both phones. We have older Jabra BT530 headsets that other than sounding like crap. (old bluetooth tech) work great, no issues.
I'm not convinced the issue is the headset. I mean really, there is no "software" for the headset. It's just a bluetooth connection, so why is the phone freezing? I tried different ringtones as I thought that might be the issue, but it isn't.
Does anyone have any thoughts or insight, or any idea if it could actually be the headset causing the phone to freeze.
Also, does anyone know how to disable the PBAB as that seems to be related but without being able to disable it, I can't confirm.
Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated. Anyone using the Extreme2 ?
Well, I have a Moto Finiti Bluetooth and I am not having any of the issues you mentioned so far. Thankfully its connecting better than earlier ROM releases on my Epic
