Help please!! My work have just kindly installed a intergrated bluetooth car kit for me. Its actually for my work phone a Nokia 6300. I am able to use the bluetooth to pair with my Kaiser and have voice conversations. Can I use it to listen to music though my Kaiser (actually a T-Mob Vario 3). The car kit must be connected to the car stereo because this cuts out automatically when I receive a call. I want to be able to use the car kit to allow me to listen to music from Media Player.
There is an app called BT toggle that routes all audio from the device to a bluetooth headset/speaker so It may be worth giving that a go..although SQ will be no wehere near as good as the built in stereo in the vehicle.
What car kit have the installed for you?
Is it a THB Bury car kit, if so then THB make a proper cradle for the kaiser
Yes it is a THB Bury Car kit with the cradlefor the Nokia 6300 with intergrated bluetooth sitting on top of it. I dont really want to buy the Kaiser Kit. Just stream music via the bluetooth cradle. Tried the BT Toggle app that c.b sugested but cant seem to get that to work. It just seems to make the music thats playing go quiet on the phone but it doesnt then come out of the cars speakers. Any ideas anyone?
Just wonder if Niki can support to have BT connection to A2DP BT Headset while using BT GPS receiver for GPS....
yes it works, although not stable when calling.
you may have to restart the bt headset a2dp. after conecting the bt gps antenna.

Do you mean that while i'm using the BT connected to GPS receiver and navigating... all the sudden a call came in... i can use the BT headset to answer the call... and the GPS will still able to track and navigating?

Thats right - at least with the sony headset and tomtom set I use. Both work well all the time
Here it works fine a Logitech bluetooth stereo headset with mic and TomTom with a keomo 16 ch gps receiver, when your call is ended it activates the mediaplayer by itself, only sh*ty thing is that the logitech headset so now and then isnt receiving 100% , but its a almost perfect combination.....
Mine works fine, either with the Moto HS820 or the A2DP Jabras. However I wouldn't ever recommend using A2DP phones whilst driving - it cab be dangerous.
Your normal one-ear devices don't tend to stop you from hearing external noises, which can be essential for safety whilst driving.
that's true... having a2dp headphone in the car is dangerous... but if it's using the normal headset with the GPS that will be great!!!!
since in spain it is forbidden to use headsets while driving, either a2dp or calls, i use a parrot mk6100 w a2dp.
when using the a2dp thru my car stereo i can connect my gps bt antenna.
when the call comes everything works fine.
but, it gets some time to go back after the call (navigator + a2dp). and it is not that smooth. it seems like that is pushing too hard to the limits of the niki.
i read the answer is to restart the conection w the a2dp.
btw, i dont have installed the voices in the navigator so the navigator doesnt interfere w the a2dp.
i can keep trying if you have some other issues.

bluetoouth GPs antenna issue
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I tried the antenna with another pda, it is working well. all tests were done with success. I don't understand whynot with the niki.
I did a complementary test, I tried the niki with another gps antenna and it is working well too.
I conclud about a compability issue between my antenna and the niki. maybe due to the bluetooth version.
is it existing a .cab to update the bluetooth driver?
thank you.
not found yet
but keep posting, i am interested too.
any news?
after to have tried many rom and radio version, i finished to buy a new antenna bluetouth v2.
the newone is working. i will sale the oldone to someboday having older phone.
I use a gear4 blueye (can get one for about £20ish on ebay including postage) at the same time as using gps (a holux gpslim 240 with tomtom) in the car.
Plug it into the car stereo and can now listen to ipod music, change tracks, volume & pause+play the ipod safely.
And also make calls by tapping the button and using phone's voice dial, this further pauses any music I'm listening to whilst in call and resumes at the end of the call. It really is a super little device!
ps. if people are having any interface issues: slow hanging up etc.. after calls, then it's worth disabling whatever phone skin you have using 'Advanced Configuration'. The default skin plays much nicer with bluetooth.
I am thinkings of upgrading to the O2 Stellar as I can buy a THB Car kit Cradle that is compatable with my current car system. Unfortunately I have been told by THB that although the car cradle is not Blue tooth, it still provides power to the Stellar, and will mute the radio sending phone calls to the car speakers during calls. However when I use TomTom (Which I want to load onto the Stallar for Work) the sound will not come out via the car speakers or the stellars own speaker due to so kind of software issue. I would prefer the TomTom sound to come out of the internal speaker. Does anyone know how I can get around this problem and why it is happening
Hello all,
Have searched forum but not found exactly my problem.
I'm running ASerg Rus v.24 ROM on my O2 XDA Diamond and I have Parrot CK3000 bluetooth car kit. Gadgets work together flawless as they should unless I use any GPS software. When I'm running any software using GPS (e.g. Navitel Navigator or PocketGForce), on incoming call the carkit rings, but when I push button on carkit to answer, it makes "bleep" sound indicating that it lost connection to Diamond, and the sound goes to handset, not thru carkit. It is obviuos that I can't hear anything and speak to handset pinned to car dashboard. I just have to say aloud to the caller that I have some problems and I will call back in few minutes... It is very annoying that I can't talk while GPS'ing.
Anybody else experienced problems like this? Any solution?
Do you get your sat nav directions through the handsfree when in use? If so how? Usually that means that the Parrot is using A2DP BT profile and not the handsfree profile, but I do not think the CK3000 supports A2DP. Have you tweaked in some way the phone or added an app so that the sat nav uses the handsfree profile? I did using BTMusic app. If you have it may have something to do with the settings on that.
No, navigation software speaks thru phone's loudspeaker, not thru car kit over BT. And PocketGForce I've mentioned above does not speak at all since it is a measurement application using GPS only for getting current speed.
I don't know, maybe I have to play with different radio versions?
I don;t know if this has been asked before.
Nut I have my Diamond mounted on my bike and use the Garmin GPS regularly when with the bike.
I have a helmet bluetooth handsfree kit, which i use to make and receive calls, BUT garmin does not route the voice to my headset.
is there a way to have garmin / my phone do so?
Thanks
Anyone?
I want to know if this is possible too..
You need to make sure you bluetooth support stereo profile in order for you to play sound out from your phone to your bluetooth device.
I tested mine and it work fine on iTech radio bluetooth headset.
