The current version 1.60 of the ROM includes already a virtual serial port but unfortunately it is a dynamic port, which is not visible to many applications. Also the ActiveSync support is difficult and complicated to use and if you want to synchronize with different computers you have always to couple the device again.
For future releases I plan the following improvements:
Support for Bluetooth headsets
Support for Bluetooth network access points
Send contacts and files through Bluetooth

i am looking also for handsfree bluetooth support if any help on that
Yeah, headset works fine, it's the handsfree profile we need, that's the one adding enhanced features....
Do you know why some headsets work better than others? I understand that the profile does not work and therefore you can not use the functions on the headsets, but I'm curious if your recent fix will help headsets such as the Jabra BT250 communicate better with the device. The HBH-65 has no issues, but Jabra does note, often very slow to connect. I like the Jabra because I can hear better-age you know.

Maybe because of the headsets itself ? I bought a HBH-35 and can do [/quote]anything with it, walk out of range and back, turn it off and on, reset the MDA, chanrge the headset etc etc. without having to re-pair...

What headset-functions do you mean ? Caller ID ? Voicedial etc. ?
That's not in the headsetprofile, that's in the handsfree profile. the headsets with enhanced functions use the handsfreeprofile also, nut just the headsetprofile...
downloaded and installed 1.0.1.2 fantastic my new bt gps works! However I can not use my gps and hbh-65 headset at the same time, any ideas please
Simply stated I was wondering if the new blutooth fix might help the Jabra BT250 work better. I know other headsets work without issue, but Jabra seems to have some problems, and I doubt that this is a Jabra problem, I believe it is a BT Device profile issue.
Can I have another link to the software cause the link is blocked from my ISP, or can any body upload it here or any other palce...
Best regards,,,
I have a new HBH-200, it works ok to answer a call but all the other features are not working, such as caller number etc.
Like i said; It's not i the headsetprofile. The headsetprofile doesn't do much except making a wireless headset possible. Answer, dosconnect and talk and listen, that's all...
Everyting else is in the handsfreeprofile (handsfree is used for advanced options for headsets and carkits)...
Link down????? :?:
not for me
Handfree Profile
I have 2 phones, XDA II and a Nokia 8910i.
My bluetooth Headset is the Ericsson HBH65.
To my surprise, I have paired the HBH65 with both phones and I am able to receive calls from both phones (not at the same time of course) without any problems. Whichever phone rings first get the use of the HBH65. In conflicts however, the Nokia seems to have priority over the XDAII, which is fine with me, but I am so happy that it actually works.
As others are mentioning, I am really missing the enhanced functions of the Handsfree Profile. Can anyone suggest any solution or perhaps work on resolving this issue as a lot of people are waiting for this. I was aware that Towas was planning to release a new version to his BT Stack Fix, has he got anywhere with that by any chance? or anyone else?
Saw these BT headphones/headset on PocketPCThoughts today and they look ideal for using with the Universal...
http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=44479
I know that currently the Universal doesn't support A2DP, what do people think the chances are of it supporting it in the furture?
Would I still be able to use them for Mono music and voice calls at the moment?
Thanks for any advice![/url]
Ok, I have the T-Mobile Tab, I have Skype and Google Voice working via 3G and Wifi but here is the issue...
I have tried 4 different wireless bluetooth headsets and they all react the same... They connect and pair with no issues BUT...
When you place a call the other callers voice is routed, as it should be, to the BT headset, however, my voice is not routed through the BT microphone and it uses the Tab's built in mic...
This is pretty unacceptable as you can imagine and pretty much defeats the purpose of a BT headset...
Any ideas, thoughts, or help on how to get the Tab to route voice via the BT headset as opposed to it's built in mic would be MUCH appreciated!!!!
Thanks in advance!
This was kind of discussed in another thread. Current thinking is that they modified the profile to not support a mic on the BT headset.
Until someone creates a patch, update or a custom rom, there probably won't be a solution.
This is the price we pay for getting the new toys right away. Once the dev's start rolling out the mods, I am sure it will be corrected.

Whilst this may be true for US Tabs, FWIW bluetooth headset profiles do not work with Skype on Euro Tabs either.
I've been trying it out this afternoon, and whilst my headset (well, wristset to be totally accurate) works fine for regular cellular calls, when I try to use Skype I only get audio out.
If I check the options for the connected device in the bluetooth settings, I have both Media and Phone profiles checked. If I uncheck Media, I no longer even get audio out with Skype (though regular phone calls still work ok on the headset), which shows that Skype is not using the Phone profile at all.
So, I suggest you look at the options for your bluetooth device to see if it even has the option for Phone. If it does, it seems that the headset profile is still there and it is actually Skype which is not using it.

Dave
If you read some of the comments here, it seems that Skype for Android doesn't support bluetooth anyway.

Thanks for the info man. I'll check it out on my Sprint GT.
Wonder if it's possible to put the Samsung Galaxy S BT on the Tab?
It is because the sound of these apps is being routed via the A2DP profile and not Headset provide is you are hearing the sound via the BT headset but the mic used is the Tab's

Since my headset didn't work with Skype at all with the Phone profile awhen I switched of the Media (A2DP) profile, I doubt a non-A2DP headset will help.
The problem is Skype doesn't use the phone profile.

I dont think its limited to skype either. I tried two other programs last night, neither one had working mic.
Sent from my SGH-T849 using XDA App
BT works just fine within Skype when using it on my MacBook Pro and my iMac.... The only issues I am having is on the Tab...
I wonder if it would be possible to flash or install the euro BT .apk?

Why? Still won't work because the problem is with Skype on Android - it does not use the phone BT profile.

No BT Headset Profile in any of the US Galaxy Tabs
The reason that none of can use their Bluetooth headsets with a program like Skype (or better yet, Line2, which I am a beta tester for) is that the Amrican carriers ripped out the ability to use BT Headset profile. Now some headset (such as te Jabra Stone) uses Audio profile, so it will work with the GalaxyTab, but we definitely need someone to break that an hack in a great fix so that we can get Line2, install it on the Tab, then us Bluetooth Headsets to do our communcating. This because the best (and cheapest) phone/data device in the world at that point. Is anyone working on that?

And these headphones have a mic built into them? And that mic worked for your Skype calls?
Hi,
did anyone managed to use skype with a bluetooh headset? In particular, I would like to use this version with americanandroid:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16889575&postcount=1262
Because I like to use the video chat function which works with my Hd2 with aca.
I have the plantronics voyager pro bt headset which supports the AD2P protocol. With this bt protocol I can use the speaker of my bt headset with skype, but the mic isn't working.
With older official skype versions, I was able to use both, speaker and mic, with a bluetooth headset in conjunction with the app "ear buddy". But this app is not supporting skype version 2.1.0.46_v11. By the way, this app worked, but was a bit buggy.
One more thing, when I press the bluetooth toggle button in the skpye program Skype_2.1.0.46_v11, my device freezes.
Thank you for your help
any news on the bt issue?
This for A501 3G AT&T only !
I need a fix for bluetooth on the A501 bluetooth profiles, currently it only supports mouse, keyboard and AD2P. I want to have HSP, HFP and SPP profiles.
Currently you cannot connect a headset, it will pair but not connect, I want to use my headset and handsfree for making bluetooth skype calls on my A501.
Currently the A501 does not support bluetooth SPP profiles, I want to use SPP for controlling serial devices.
I am willing to pay $300 to the developer that fixes these issues.
Bluetooth must be useable with Skype and or an added in dialer for making 2g/gsm calls, bluetooth must be usable with handsfree in that you can connect to some vehicles for handsfree calls while driving, and SPP bluetooth must function.
Kernel source for HC 3.2 is available.
Anybody else want to add to the bounty?

great idea, however i dont think we can make voice calls on this. i could be wrong but the a501 has a neutered radio, and i dont think it can be made to make voice calls.
i would be happy if somone proved me wrong

You might be right that it does not have GSM or 2g capabilities but I would wager that the issue is in the firmware rather than the hardware, of course the firmware could be an issue as well unless the radio vendor (thinking Broadcom) has other firmware that has more functionality than the firmware supplied to AT&T's specs. I think it would be cheaper to purchase uncrippled radios and cripple them in the firmware than actually producing crippled hardware....
