help - xdaII mini in-call problems

hi, my name is warren and i'm from australia, and i require some help with my o2 xda ii mini
i have been playing around with bluetooth stacks and programs to get my bluetooth gps reciever to talk with my xdaII mini, and have come intio a new problem that has only seemed to come about recently
so.. the phone works fine
except.. when i am in-call, if i turn the pda on (eg to make a note or check the call timer) then the phone stops working. i can still hear the other person, but they can't hear me. i assume the microphone stops working or something? if i call them back immediately it works fine again, its just if i turn it on in-call!
i installed a bleutooth stack on here but i cant uninstall it to see if that fixes the problem
HELP!
thanks,
Warren
Which BT stack did you install? Most GPS receivers work flowlessly. In most cases the only thing to install is a patch called BTComPort.cab.
yeah unfortunately i realise that now!
i did install the above "BTcomport" patch but i also installed this stack: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=249219
nto sure what to do. i tried uninstalling it but it says files are in use. i tried deleting all the required files, but cannot delete 2 of them which are apparently in use

Bluetooth not staying on - same problem as Tracy and Matt Blog

My Xperia X1 is great. The keyboard is a refreshing change from the orbit 2/polaris.
Problem - Bluetooth does not stay switched on. This is most apparent when using my Parrot carkit because it does not automatically connect due to the bluetooth being switched off. I have looked through the settings to no avail. Any suggestions? Anyone else with similar problem?
Also the screen switches itself off at such short intervals - possibly to help battery life but it makes reading web pages frustrating at times.
The screen switching off can be changed or turned off in the phone settings.
Thanks for that. The bluetooth issue is real although it may only be on the branded uk ROMs. Anyone else with a similar problem - when I click bluetooth on it stays but as soon as you open up settings or programs the icon disappears (switches itself off). Any bright ideas?
Bluetooth just turns off...
I have the same problem.
The Bluetooth just turns off.
Its a real problem, and nothing i can find either talks about it... or in any setting.
Anyone know of a fix?
My friend at SE Sweden told me that a new FW will fix this. They know about the problem and are working on it.
RTFM - switch bluetooth on + soft reset device = bluetooth stays on.
Works for me

RTFM....
This does not fix the issue. Soft reset after enabling.
Again... I contacted SE... and was told.. "We are aware of this and it has been passed to developers to create a patch in the form of a CAB/flash that will become available on the SE website under support."
So... timescales... she said.. it won't be weeks as this is a new phone and any issues are taking priority.
Sit and wait... if you need it and use BT constant... Hold fire on buying one...

Well, that's weird since it fixed the issue for me... still, nice to hear SE's working on improvements.

Can you put what rom version yours is.?
Start /SEttings/device information/Version
and what SE asked from me...
Start /SEttings/device information/customer info
thanks
What works for me is switching off the wifi - my bluetooth has stayed on every since.
I installed the Touch HD TF3D and hey presto.. WIFI and Bluetooth work as wanted with no probs.
So... What does this package do?
any Bluetooth settings or power?
Hello,
i have a german rom ( 1.02.932.3 ) and i have the bluetooth issue too.

I think this is just a small bug in the SE BT stack. SE phones have an option to turn on BT for 10 minutes or so, maybe this setting was used in the first roms. I hope SE will fix this.
I've got a 02 SE X1 just out, I have the same issue, I can connect to my Parrot 3200and it works fine, get back in to my car sometime later and BT will not connect, 1st I tried switching off the phone, then resets, and finally which works, switching off the BT and back on again (although BT still shows as being on in Connection manager), after that I can finally get a BT connection to the car kit,
Is anyone getting the same problem ?? and is there a patch yet as its really frustrating to do this every other time,
Thanks Mark
Hi Mark I have a Parrot Bluetooth carkit (3200 the same as you). It is working and syncing beautifully with the X1i just as it did with my previous WM devices.
I dont go through the stages you mentioned anymore but bluetooth only stays on if the wifi is kept off.
Hope you get yours sorted.

Wifi is always off ? I've emailed SE tech support so it will be interesting to see what they say
Does anyone have a problem with the HBH-DS980 bluetooth headset?
On my X1, it only shows Wireless Headset and Hands-Free services. What about A2DP and AVRCP?
I never use wifi, but I still get this problem pretty regularly. It's the only thing keeping me from using the phone.
Also, has anyone else noticed a bug where the email signature you set will not be retained after a soft reset? It always reverts back to the stock Xperia sig.
I have a Xperia uk version and had the same experience, bt went off randomly. I installed Touch flo 3d and now works fine. Switching on and off WiFi has no influence on bt in my case. Also tried bt on + soft reset and still bt went off sometimes.
i have same problem
i have the same problem with the bluetooth, i cannot connect to my car kit (which is SE also by the way!). After contacting SE i was told to wait for the new firmware coming out on the site... this is so frustrating!! how can such an expensive phone have this silly problem??

[Q] Anybody experienced the bluetooth issue w/ Pdaimatejam's ROM

Anybody experienced the Bluetooth issue w/ Pdaimatejam's ROM? My Bluetooth could be switched on and stable. But it always shows "Searching..." and cannot find any Bluetooth device. I cannot find HD2 from other Bluetooth device either.
Please advise!
mine works sweetly
ermm... a) make sure the other phones bluetooth is set to be Discoverable
and b) so a soft reset )
Emm...
After performing some further testing, I found it can pair with my laptop, but still cannot connect to my car. Seems like the Bluetooth in that ROM is not compatiable with my car.

put it on and after 30s they a connected and stays stable with out wifi

WiFi disconnects when using Bluetooth headpones

Hi everyone, it seems I got a problem I never had before, or even heard of...I bought a pair of new Bluetooth headphone (Bluedio T2S) and when I started to use them I discovered this issue. There is not a really good WiFi signal in my bedroom, but I never had disconnection issues, in fact this problem occurs ONLY when I am using this Bluetooth headphones...which is curious...wifi keeps disconnecting and connecting again...instead when I am using wired earphones, the WiFi is always connected...this is weird.
Has anyone had this problem or know how to solve the issue?
Some technical specifications:
Rom: Albe95 Lollirom v8.0
Baseband/modem: UHPA1
Up
Note: This is happening even when I am in front of the router...keeps disconnecting. Anyway it's not happening with my fruity tablet using the same Bluetooth headset and connected to the same router...so I think this could be modem related...right?
I have had disconnection problems recently, I updated my baseband and bootloader but got even worse disconnection problems afterwards. I had to clean flash my rom again before everything went back to normal. maybe give that a try...

N910U Bluetooth malfunction

Hey guys,
So I have a Note 4 N910U and I have been using a custom note 5 rom for a long time without any major problems. Lately my Bluetooth stopped working, basically it turns on but as soon as I try to connect to any Bluetooth device it stops working. When I connect to my gear for instance, the gear connects and so does the phone but I have a force close message and when I press ok the Bluetooth turns off and on.
I am still using lollipop 5.1.1 I want to upgrade but I don't know if that would fix the problem or not.
Any insights on this problem?
Thanks.
