First question: Blutooth is paired, but yet when I make a call I have to press on HeadSet button for the phone to use headset for calls (works for media by default). how to make it automatically?
Second: I tried to pair with another headset that I no longer have but it keeps showing up in my list of headsets how to remove?

Hi. I have a Spring ppc-6700 running wm5 with the latest rom.
My problem is that I cannot use the BT headset to talk on Skype or to listen to music from the computer. I do not know how to switch to the headset. It's paired and i see the headset icon on the screen. Before the latest rom i used to press the action button on the headset and it would switch to it. Now when i press the button i get this annoying voice dialing feature.
OT: When i use skype it only works in speakerphone mode. Any way i can get skype to work through the earpiece so emulate talking on the phone?
Thanks.
This is normal behavior.
Skype does not support the phone functions on Pocket PC and so your (mono) Bluetooth headset does not get its sound. The same happens for ANY application that is not part of the "phone" functionality of the Pocket PC. The mono Bluetooth headsets ONLY work with applications that recognize the "HSP or HFP Bluetooth profiles".
>Any way i can get skype to work through the earpiece
There are two ways to do that:
1. Email Skype and tell them to get their sh*t together and provide a phone-friendly version of Skype that supports HSP/HFP.
2. Buy a *stereo* Bluetooth headset. This will work both for music and general pocketPC sound (in A2DP/AVRCP mode) and in HFP/HSP mode (for phone calls). With a stereo Bluetooth headset you can hear the Skype sound on your headphones, but you will still need to talk using the PocketPC's microphone (until Skype supports the HSP/HFP profile that is). For normal phone calls, you will be able to use the headphones and microphones of the BT headset directly.
It all boils down to applications support the HSP/HFP BT profile.
i've used the bluetooth headset with skype before but after this update with the stupid voice dialer app, i just can't get it to work at all. I want to get rid of voice dialer app. and have sound being routed to the headset as before.
I tried BTAudioToggle.exe with no success. Absolutely nothing happens.
FIXED.
I went to
HK_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\VOICECOMMAND\Path
And cleared the path. This way when i press the bluetooth button on the headset it just activates the headset profile but doesn't launch the stupid voice dialer which shuts off the headset profile.
I've seen many posts about Bluetooth Stereo Headsets showing a Wireless Stereo profile when using A2DP implementation.
But I have a Jabra BT500 mono headset. Is it possible to make it be recognized as a stereo headset, when A2DP is applied?
I used the tweaks described on "A2DP support for 818pro" topic, but the extra option described (Wireless Stereo) doesn't show. I keep getting only the "Hands Free" option.
BTW, I'm using Qtek S200 updated with latest Dopod 818 Pro ROM (contains AKU2 and A2DP).
Enabling A2DP in your ROM will allow the device to connect to A2DP enabled devices in Wireless Stereo mode. When you make a bluetooth connection to a device the phone will query that device to find out what services it offers, then it will report back the ones that it understands and give you the option to connect to them. Since you BT500 is mono it would be pointless for it to have a wireless stereo service stored in its firmware, and why you would want to try connect to it in stereo mode is a bit confusing. If you're trying to use your headset as a mono ear plug for listening to music there is one thing you can do. Get voice command installed, edit the registry to get voice command running when you press the button on your headset (not sure if your S200 supports voice dial but if it does then you should be able to do this), then when you press the B500's button voice command will run and the bluetooth connection to the headset will stay active until you press the button again.
Hi, i just bought a universal bluetooth headset but i cannot set up my phone to work with it. I turned my bluetooth function on and set my phone visible but i still cannot find the bluetooth headset. Does anyone know why?
You don't want the bluetooth headset to see the phone... you want the phone to see the headset... Setting the phone to visible is for other phones/computers to be able to see it...
By default, all you should need to do is...
1. Have your bluetooth set to "on" on your phone
2. Turn on the BT headset
3. Add new device
4. See headset and tap on it and then next
5. Pair it with 0000 or 1234
6. It should set it to heaset automatically
Sometimes just having the bluetooth headset on is not enough, you have to put it in discovery mode. (The headset manual should say how to do this)
Hi there,
I'm using a Jabra BT 8040 headset with my Touch Diamond. Whenever the headset gets connected, the stereo headphones profile is activated and all the sounds from my device are routed to the headset.
I used Mortscript and a2dptoggle to create a script which activates the sound profile whenever I start the music player and deactivates it when I close the player.
This part is all working nice, BUT whenever i turn on my headset (I'm turning it off when in pocket, to avoid calling someone by accidentially double pressing the button on the headset) the headphones profile is activated again. I made a shortcut to deactivate it, but would be nice if the "auto-connect" could just be disabled somehow.
Any ideas?

ps: another solution to the problem would be to deactivate the redial functionality, but I did not find any thread solving this situation. If someone knows how to stop it, please tell me
Hi,
it's easy to find a bluetooth toggle button out there to put it on the HD2 homescreen - neverthelees it only turns bluetooth on (or off). Normally I use only one bluetooth connection - my stereo headset. Is there anything I can do that the toggle button not only turns on the bluetooth but uses my headset as standard connection, so automatically connects to it with some settings?
Thanks,
DW!
Nobody?
If you are having an issue with the headset only connecting as handsfree when you turn bluetooth on there is an option in the settings to have stereo headsets connect to both handsfree and headset at the same time ...
It would be in the bluetooth settings under that devices main properties ...
I use one and it connects to both when toggling bluetooth on or off ...
But even without that all you have to do normally is hit a "media" button on the headset , something other than talk/play or volume, and it should connect ...
Hope that confusing mess helps ....
