bluetooth issues with roms - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all,
I have a G1 rooted and ive been having troubles with my bluetooth headsets.
The headset connects to the phone but if any call comes in or if i make a call i cannot hear anything through the headset. This happens to all headsets I have tried.
I have tried almost every rom and it is the same for them all.
Has anyone heard of this? or has anything other ideas i can try?

this is not a dev issue. this is a settings or compatibility issue with your bt headset. NO hero roms have bluetooth on dream devices.

moved to Q & A

Sorry for posting in the wrong section but .. no one can help or have any ideas?
all headsets do the same thing and for all roms
And jaaronmoody.. what do you mean "NO hero roms have bluetooth on dream devices."

He means the Hero ROMs for the G1 do not have bluetooth.
But you connect, just no sound? Can the other side hear you?

no no one can hear me and i cannot hear them - its really strange
it seems like the headset is trying to connect but its just silence .. then after i have to restart the phone to use it normally

Did bluetooth work on your phone before you started customizing/modding it?

Pairing bluetooth headsets

I just recently bought a new stereo bluetooth headset (dell BH200) which sounds great when I play music through it, but it comes with a gigantic flaw. I can't make or recieve calls. The moment any of that happens, the headset disconnects itself. I'm wondering what the problem is since the headset does support 2.0 with EDR and so does the fuze. One thing I did noticed though was that when I paired the headset, it did not ask for a passkey at all and just went straight to "save".
I'm wondering if there is anything that I can do to make the headset work with phone if anyone has any idea. I was lurking around and someone mentioned something about CoD (class of device) but I dont think that's the issue.
Thankyou for your time reading this post.

mmm me thinks that it may not have paired correctly. I don't actually know much about the model you have. I have a Iclip R32 which I have had paired with most of my phones. It always asks for the passkey. I have always, once paired, made a call to my phone while the headset is connected. Not sure if it is related to my device or not but if I do not do this it will do weird things when I listen to music and receive calls. Sorry if this has not been of much help to you.
Bottom line: I would delete the pairing and do it again.
if you're not sure which bt headset it is, it's up on the dell website. Let me snag a link for you real quick. The problem is it only does half the function i want it to which is aggravating.
Here you go:
http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/...etail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19&sku=313-6220
that's the headset I got. The thing that strikes me as odd is that I couldn't enter a passkey nor is there an option for me to force to provide a passkey like vista. I heard rumors about the bluetooth stack automatically assuming passkeys for "unsafe" devices like headsets and all that. If anything should I consider getting a different bt stack? People were recomending Widdcomm's...

Mm I checked them with the link you sent thanks for that.
Maybe my headset is getting old but it always asks for a passkey when I connect it. My Touch Pro did just like my Kaiser and Hermes. Sorry but maybe you will need to check with Dell. They do not mention any thing but I'm assuming that they have a microphone for phone calls....
edit: Doh I just read the 2nd page of reviews and it does have a mic. Sorry should of checked that before.
Well since your touch pro most probably runs wm6.1, i doubt it's because your headset is old. I wonder if there's a way to disable this automatic passkey guessing thing.
Anyone? any ideas on how to disable the automatic pin number guessing feature of wm6.1?
Kicks post up to page 1
So what do you guys think?
Would it be a good idea to use a different bt stack or am I stuck with no choice at all?
Need Help Badly!!
hi i'm trying to pair my bluetooth headset (Samsung WEP200) but everytime i put the pin number (that is given by the bluetooth headset) it always said "Your Device did not connect with Samsung WEP200. The connection Failed or the passcode is incorrect".
how to install the hotfix (the hot fix from HTC website) on my HTC Touch Pro? everytime i copy the .exe file into my device, and run it, i always got an error box. Incorrect Device, "Please use the correct Device to Install This Hotfix program!" i don't know how it happen, i download this from HTC support page. i select the phone (HTC Touch Pro) and in the "Software Download" tab it show that there are 3 available download, the Hotfix, the Rom and Application.
i really need help....... pls, someone that have the same proble with their HTC Touch Pro bluetooth connection.....
is there a way to disable the automatic passkey mode that came with the MS bt stack or anything like changing my stack to a different' company's
hmm just want to ask.. have someone tried to pair Philip SHB7100 with HTC Raphael yet?? because i would like to buy this bluetooth, since my samsung WEP200 is not compatible...
thank you

Help with bluetooth after 1.5 update

Hi there. I was wondering if anyone could help me with an issue I am having after my 1.5 update (non-rooted). After my update I played around with it for a bit and love it but I went to play with my bluetooth and I can't listen to music through the headset like it said it was suppose to do. I get a ringing noise when someone calls but no music thru it. Did I do something wrong with the manual update or something? If someone could help me I would truly appreciate it.
Also I was curious if its possible if I can root my phone after the update or is it not an option anymore? I been thinking bout it now and is loving the cool themes you can get.
Thank you so much for your time
i to have this problem from time to time
i manage to fix the problem temporary by going to the phone's settings > Wireless controls > Bluetooth settings > klick and hold the bluetooth device till a popup comes > Options > then toggle media off and on
then my headset works out fine
ps: i just repaired my headset as a test, witch i dint do after the update and it seems to work after turning off bluetooth and the device
ill give u an update if it works after a couple of times
Thanks for responding. I have tried for 2 days now to try to get it to work and I haven't gotten it to work yet. I kept my music running while trying to disconnect and reconnect the headset (motorola H690) and nothing and then earlier I got a phone call while I was listening to my music off my phone and I got a phone call and I answered it via bluetooth and when I got off the phone I could hear the music for a couple seconds and it shut off and started playing on the phone speaker. I don't know what the deal is.
i to still have that problem
i can start and stop the media from my bluetooth device but it will play on my phone
still when i toggle media off and on in the bluetooth device options it fixes it sometimes for 3 connects sometimes till the next session
what happens if u toggle media off and on with ure G1?
Yeah it still hasn't worked for me and I've done the same things you havei don't know what the deal is.
im not sure if this is the same problem but my g1 is rooted & i have it paired with my bluetooth in my car & when the phone rings... it rings through the car speakers but when i answer the call all sound comes thru the phone... same when i make a calll.. instead of it working thru the car speakers & mic it only wrks thru the g1 itself..
Exactly the same issue as i3lazen
My phone is totally standard running 1.5, just about to go and sell the phone and go back to my HTC Kaiser as it works with no issue.
I can stream music to my BT car stereo no problem but if I can't send and recieve calls then I'm stuffed.
If anyone has any advice, it would be appreciated as I'd love to keep my G1
Hey guys,
try the fix here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4177831&postcount=329
Thanks for the link but is that not just for improving sound quality and not a BT fix?

I had this issue with my rooted phone, and then I updated the radio to 2.22.19.26I and this fixed it. Not sure if this is related to the non root phones but it may be related to it if the radio wasn't updated in the upgrade to 1.5

Bluetooth Headset Audio

Hello all
I recently put 4.2.11.1 on my G1. Now when I pair my headset with the phone. The audio is still transfered though my phone. Is this a known issue? is there a fix?
Tech Specs
Handset: G1 w/Cyanogen 4.2.11.1
Headset: Samsung WEP470
The headset worked fine with stock 1.6
The headset appears to pair fine, even verified the bluetooth 'button' is selected while in a call. Still audio goes through the handset and not the headset.
This really is my only issue I love cyanogen so far and hope that the Nexus One is cracked fairly soon after release.
I have the exact same issue with a parrot ck2100-bluetooth hansfree, also running latest cyanogen
I've had this issue and other Bluetooth audio problems under the last several CM releases (See http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=819). When audio fails to go through the headset as you describe, turning the headset off and then on again often fixes it. If that doesn't help, then turning the headset off, toggling Bluetooth off and then on, and then turning on the headset usually works.
hrmm, hope this can get fixed I may have to abandon Cyanogen. I have to field call via bluetooth when I work from home.
usually this happens once a week for my bluetooth if i keep toggling BT on and off several times (usually do it if i forget my BT headset). easy fix. not a serious problem with me.
like the person above said: just turn toggle BT off then on, it should connect fine. if not, what i do is go through the settings and unpair them and pair, it should connect to the phone's audio. rinse and repeat.
not a serious bug that should keep anyone away from a certain rom... especially Cyans
Yall in the wrong forum ppl
If its an issue concerning Cy's rom go in his thread n follow the link to submite the issue.
If u trying to solve the problem go in Q&A and ask there or CY's thread.
This has nothing to do with development.
moved to Q&A
I am also having this issue.
I am having a parot c3100 and it pairs fine. But the sound is send to my phone instead of over my car audio system.
I tried bluetooth+headphone fix, but that doesn't help either.
It looks like every cyanogen (based) rom does have this issue ....
Does anybody have other ideas to get it fixed ?

[Q] Poor - Bad sound quality with bluetooth

I just switched from a moment to the hero on our third line that our friend uses.
Had many problems with the moment. So far only one with the hero, but its a huge problem!
Sound quality when using bluetooth is from poor to bad. Caller on other end either cannt hear me or I cannt hear them. So far this is true with all 4 of my bluetooth headsets. These same headsets work with no problem on diffrent phones. So its not the headset.
Is there a known bluetooth issue on the hero? I searched the forums but cannt find anything. I know this could be a simply a bad refurb problem. However if there is a custom rom or some other way to fix this problem I would like to try that before having sprint send another phone out.
Does anyone have issuses with bluetooth on a stock hero?
Any fixes? Or custom rom / kernels that will fix this problem?

[Q]&Discussion: Bluetooth headset again

Hey guys. Im having trouble with my plantronics explorer 390 bluetooth headset. I get the pairing ok, they both (headset and g1) recognize each other and when I call it says that its using/sending through the headset. Just that the sound still comes normally through the phone instead. The headset sounds like it starts the speaker in it, since low noise can be heard.
Tried putting restarting both bluetooth, headset and phone in all kinds of orders. Been googling and searching on xda plus in this biffmod thread, but all I find is how to get music through a mono headset and such. Otherwise unanswered questions.
This may be something just not working or already solved problem, but please share your help and info. Thanks!
----------------------------------------------
Seems like a lot of people have asked and are having/have been having the same problem since the beginning. And no solution that worked for them all seems to have been found. I thought people with similar problems could also join in the discussion and share.
SO lets share our configs/roms and headset calling problems, and see if we can figure anything out. Thanks!
Android ftw!
