Nexus One and Bluetooth headset - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am using Nexus One and a BH 103 Nokia Stereo Bluetooth headset. I have problems receiving some calls. Sometimes the conversation looks like muted and a have to use the Bluetooth button in call screen twice to deactivate and reactivate the bluetooths to be able to receive the call. I did not had problems when calling someone. Did somebody had the same problem and solve it ?

No problems here. I am using the RC Froyo and works fine. I am using both the Aliph Icon and BlueAnt S4.

I am using android 2.1 stock as the telephone was sold . Do you think that maybe a upgrade to froyo will solve the problem ? You are using the same BT headset ?

I am the only one with bluetooth headset problems ? I want to pin point who is guilty the headset BH 103 from nokia or android

Are you running stock rom and stock kernel? Some more information would be helpful.

I didn't change any firmware so far. Only installed some applications .

I bought the Blue Ant Q1 and it has problems with voice dialing, that's the only problem I have found. No matter what I tell it to call it dials information.

Jabra BT 800 and Broadcomm 3900 upgrade

:? Hi guys Just wondered if any of you guys are experienced problems with the Jabra bt800 working intermittently. Sometimes it works but most of the time it does'nt . I've upgraded to Broadcom 3900 and although blue tooth audio still crackles its not as bad.. The headset works alot better with my SPV C500.. Any ideas or experiences :?:
bt 800
hi i have xda2s with bt 800 working somtimes
i upgradeed to bt3900 but i see no change
somtime i takes 5-6 kye presss to unswerr a phone call
i do not have any audio problem the audio is ok
glad to know i am not the only one.. cheers for replying
did you try to contact jabra support???
I have a contact in GN Netcom so will have a chat with him next week and post the response here
thenks :wink:
:? Ok after talking to my contact in GN Netcom we have come to the conclusion (seings as it works fine with my Motorolla V3 and Nokia 6810 and 6820 and Siemens SK65) that the issue lies with the Bluetooth stack on my 2s.I did explain about this that i had upgraded it to the newer version and i personally believe they have not totally replicated the way the Bluetooth in the xda2s behaves the same as a normal bluetooth enabled phones.
I believe that because it works fine on most of the Manufacturers phones and the XDA's of this world are low priority to get it right.. I still believe it will be fixed in future Bluetooth upgrades on the xda2s.. doh still think that even though the display and buttons work intermittently it is still worth having for the DSP
The problem still exists!
I have Qrek 9090 and Jabra t800. Audio is very good and also on the good range.
BUT...
Main problem (even with Jabra 800 fix CAB file) is that I can't normaly answer the phone call. It takes about 5 or 6 times before I can reply the call. And also, it takes about 2 seconds before I can hear other side opponent.
I just wonder if you people have some kind of this problem. Any expirince. Could you please share with me some information.
I use Danghard rom 1.44 wit BT 3900.
Thanks a lot.
Leonid.
Update to Latest Ow2 ROM...the BT 3900 workd flaw lewssly.I hv tried BT with SE HBH 30/262 etc Blue Trek G2 and no problems....Also with Motorolla 810...
Moreover, Motorolla and Bluetrek supports voice dialing too :lol:
Thank you, but I'm talking about Jabra BT 800, cause it has so many features that I need. So, I would like that my Jabra headset will work fine with Qtek 9090.
Guys, please help! :lol:
Guys! Really need your help.
I used before another headset and didn't have any problems. But after I bought Jabra BT 800 I got serous problems. It really takes about 6 rings before I can answer a call. So, a lot of people just hang up and I have to call them back. :evil:
Nothing really helped. :evil:
I'm confused, cause I really like this headset and would like to use it.
HELP!
:lol:
Thanks!

well I too own a Bluetreck G2R and a lot of crackling sound I have upgraded my BT stack to 3900 and most of my callers only hear the crackling so I have to swap my call to the phone and talk or have to call them back
also how do u use Voice dailing on the bluetreck for my xda IIs ???
can some one help me ?
Hi..use search,,,still this is how to do a voice dialling:
1) Install MS Voice command and assign a Hardware button(any) to activate the software so that it an listen to our commands.
2) Now, just press the "Call answer" button of your BT.By doing so it will activate the sound on your 2s.Then press that harware button of Voice command and speak...
It works flawlessly
Thanks
thank s
Ill def try going to Delhi, will return and sure thry Voice dial and re-install my BT stack to see if there is crackling sound still there
also how long can you try to distance your phone from the BT
I got one Jabra bt800
its superb and must say its a best one around with lots of features
Eehheh and you call that voice dialing?
If i had to do all of that to voice dial i could also press the button on the device and talk the name to it. And that would be one click less than with your solution.
I think the idea of voice dial with bluetooth is to keep the phone in your pocket and do the talking via bluetooth only.

But can you tell me. Do you also have such problems with Jabra 800 as I have. The sound of BT and range is best. But what about time to answer the call. I press answer button hundred times to be able to speake with opponent.
Hi again guys.
Still can't solve my problem with BT 800.
I contacted with several companies but didn't get any correct answer.
Really don't know what to do.
Can you please tell what exactly this CAB file from FTP fixes cause nothig changed since I installed it.
Thank you and please foget me for bothering you.
Leo.
Gentlemen,
After a week or so exploring this forum and experimenting with my Logitech bluetooth hands free I've got a feeling that the only possible solution for the moment is to prevent the BA from getting into the sleep mode. Use ScreenLock or Mort Saver instead.

Well, thank you.
But as I understood from different threads in forum this is one way.
But... I'll kill battery of PDA very quickly. Really don't think that it's a good idea.
People from Jabra told me that new firmware will come soon and will help to solve this problem.
So.. I think that it's not the fault of PDA or ROM... :?

Bluetooth & BMW car kit

I'm having a problem with the bluetooth on the HTC with the bmw car kit (E46, 2004). It auto connects fine every time, but I can only make or receive 1 call. After that call has ended, it still claims it is connected - I can browse the phone book, but when the next call comes in it will ring through the car kit, but as soon as I answer it the audio comes out of the phone, not the car kit. The same happens if I initiate the call instead of receive.
It's not the car kit, it has worked flawlessly with previous phones (Sendo, N80) I just have a problem with this one. It happened with the stock rom (voda UK), and all versions of Dutty's.
Anyone any ideas?
Have you tried flashing a different radio?
I also had a weird BT problem and flashing a new radio helped.
Hi
How are you answering the incoming call?
My boss has a similar car to yours with BMW proffesional bluetooth and is running an HTC S710 which works perfectly.
I have found the although you are connected to handsfree if you answer the call on the handset and not via the bluetoooth controls then it will push the audio through the handset not the handsfree.
therefore are you answering the 2nd or 3rd incoming call on the handset or the handsfree?
I might be able to test my vodafone v1615 on this car kit during the week.
Tom
Hello,
I also have a BMW X3 E86 from 2004 with a BMW Bluetooth Kit ( I believe is the some as yours... ) and my Kaiser works great without any problems.
My Kaiser Radio version is: 1.27.12.11
I hope this can help you troubleshooting your problem!
pt_t830
well i have a Z4 ´06 and all work fine...to be honest i haven`t try it after last BMW nav (Professional) upgrade to V.29 but before this all was OK...Otherwise there was no possimility to use it with a new N or E Nokia

I have tried it both ways, but it makes no difference whether it is answered via the button on the steering wheel, the centre console or the phone - the audio will always come out the phone, not the car kit on the 2nd call. It does turn off the audio on the radio though, and it always rings through the car kit.
Even if the call is initiated from the car kit by browsing the phone book and dialling, no sound will come out the car kit - and then I realise it has already rung but the ringing tone has come out the phone and the other person has answered!
I had similar problems on my E46 M3. I have put jetware on and it's perfect now. I even get a mail indicator on the sat nav when I receive an SMS, never got that before!

Bluetooth carkit problems?

Hello people,
i've been searching but couldn't find a thread about bluetooth carkit probs with diamond.
I have a parrot 3100 and always worked just fine with the wm6.1 device I had (Prophet).
But with diamond it's quite a mess.
When phone rings:
- Parrot rings
- Answers call
- Parrot mutes (? Mute-symbol on parrot)
- Cannot unmute, on phone there is no sound.
- Sometimes parrot disconnects a second or two.
When making call
- Also mute problem
- Other line can't hear me, must talk in phone?
Even buggy, sometimes hangs, just working really annoying, cannot rely on the carkit. Missed several callers today.
But, sometimes it just works...
Anyone recognised this, any fix or workaround? It should be able to work propery.
Also wonder, why my parrot gives the contacts as contact /m for mobile and contact /w for work in normal list, instead of grouping them under one name (contact -> work, mobile etc).
Have you tried firmware upgrade on your Parrot 3100?
http://www.parrot.com/uk/support/downloads
OMG what an Idea.
I'll take this laptop into my car and fix it.
I have the same parrot and I'm having similar issues. It's annoying because when it gets "muted", the parrot is functioning as if had a call and it blocks the music from the cd-player and it won't get unblocked until I turn off my car.
I think I'll try to update the parrot firmware as staroip said...
you can give this software a try.

This has been solved similar problems with my CK3000.

Version 4.17 of the Parrot software more than solved the issue!!
* good contact syncing
* better voice quality
* no hangs at all
I'm happy
Hi all,
I also have problems with bluetooth and my Audi Bluetooth kit:
Connecting and phoning works fine but:
the phonebook:
- Names are wrong displayed (Surename and name are switched)
- on every number he deleted the "+" ... :-( on the car-screen (MMI)
In the phonebook on the diamond all Numbers have the e.g. +49 ... but on the screen in my car there is no "+" and of course the number without the "+" does not work...
- special chars like ä, ö, .. are not displayed correktly...
So what can I do, and whats that Parrot software you are talking about? EDIT: I just saw the parrot is an external bluetooth kit, right? So no solution with parrot software for my problem
FYI: I had a sony ericsson W950i with Symbian before and there everything worked perfektly with my bluetooth car system, so I hope I can also fix the problems on my Diamond with WM 6.1 ...
Thanks,
MrDiamond.
How did you update your Parrot kit?
Can you do it over bluetooth?
Been using the TD in my Land Rover (Discovery 3) with its bluetooth PTI. Works like a dream.
Auto connects, access to dialled, missed and received calls. Address book navigation using head unit and steering wheel control.
Better than when using my Nokia N95... that never did work with the recent called, dialled, missed lists.
Ironically the LR PTI is made by Nokia
Just need a power charger now as having a bluetooth connection running all the time kills the battery big time.

Original Handsfree Kit

What is the silver button on the original handsfree kit meant to do? when i have an incoming call it wont pick up so, so is there meant to be another function to it or something? thanks
i second that also
this key doesn't answer the incoming call
is there someone else has this problem ?
anyone actally used the handsfree kit?
The wired one? I use mine all the time, answers calls here, and a double press makes it dial last number..
hi, i'am also having the same issues.
the silver button does not pick up calls.
has anyone found a solution for this?
I have the same problem
I live at HK
I have been to the Service Center,
But denied it is the handfree fault but the rom bug..
I argued with them, then changed to a new handfree,
but the problem still there....
Hi everybody,
I'm new here and very grateful for all the brilliant solutions you guys come up with to all sorts of issues with x1.
I have the same problem with my hands-free: the button doesn't work and neither does the microphone. Until now, I've thought of it as a simple matter of replacing the hands-free kit, but now I see the suggestion that this is a Rom bug! Will anyone be able to elaborate a bit on this?
thanks and best regards,
Sune
Really not sure it is real or not that is a rom or software bug,
but sure quite a number of problem of people experienced such problem!
I hope SE not to put a death ear on this issue.
It is really annoying as I quite often used the handfree.
hello everyone
the same problem on my russian x1 handsfree. Have tried to fix it with some patches - no results. Then I've bought Nokia Xpress music handsfree, and it works perfectly (and radio works too).
update
VERY SAD, but it doesn't fix the problem. bad quality of X1 jack - thats the problem. Xpress key doesn't answer the incoming call periodically too, but handsfree itself working good all the time

The first time i got to know the headphone dosen;t work in answering call, I really feel astonished. It is such a basic function of phone, how can the genius of SE dose not test it. Do them think we will buy another handfree???
Really disappointed of SE.....

Hi I'm Chris from Sri lanka,
Yes, I have the same issue! The handsfree seems to work when I remove it and re insert the jack during an incoming call, but not initially! It is very temeperamental and annoying. I also have a problem when I get an another call when I'm already on a call while using the handsfree. The current call goes to speaker phone and the party cannot hear wht I'm saying through my handsfree!
So I am forced to remove the handsfree and talk during such instances! Crazy this, especially since answering phone calls is one of the core functions of a cell phone! what's the point in having all the frills when answering a call is so tedious!
This is very disppointing, especially with such a high price tag to boot!
same case here. im really disappointed...
i guess that if i can when asus glaxy came out i will change mi xperia for that one... this phone is really "buggy"...
Same probleme here unfortunately.. I tried to remove all
additional programs related to dialing and volume,
switched to the new ROM, but no changes. Button on headset
does not work and microphone neither.
I also have same issue, both HK new stock ROM & cook rom also.
i'm form India, had purchased Xperia X1i and using Airtel network. when i connect my hands free and attend one call the moment second call come, automatically my loud speaker gets activated.
is any facing the same problem in Indai or any where else? will any one help me this.
is there any solutions?

Samething here, and the above works for me too (Remove and re insert), but SE really need to fix this for us.
I believe it's a hardware problem, bad 3.5mm jack!
My right earphone's volume has fallen to one tenth. I have it for less than a month. Good listening but bad manufacturing quality.
Personally I don't think it's bad hardware, I think it's bad firmware/rom.
Currently, with GENERIC UK ROM R2AA010, three presses of headset button dials last number, long press disconnects. Not tried incoming call yet.
I really need to be able to customize this buttons function, especially to activate Voice Command, so that I can make calls, play music etc, without the need for touching the phone. Only then, will I be able to make a button for the handlebars on my motorbike.
Want to use a fully wired system to save on battery power, rather than bluetooth. Also, in all the years of using bluetooth, I have yet to find a combination of handset and headset that work seamlessly.
So far, not impressed with the lack of functionality of this headset, but can see why it works like this. Essentially SE should have included Voice Command, then this hardware/software combination would have been shipped working effectively. I think it is merely a cost saving exercise and SE need to provide a patch and fix in their next rom release.

[Q] Bluetooth Headset Probems: random disconnect

Hi there,
I've got a xperia z with a stock rom(android 4.1.2 build 10.1.A.1.434.) and a Plantronics Voyager Legend Bt Headset(running with the latest firmware).
The phone is new, only one week old. I've installed only few programs (beside the bloatware already on the phone).
One out of that is "avast mobile security", not sure if it's a possible fault for the problems I'm going to describe...:
The Headset is paired and I can, sometimes, use it.
Sometimes the headset gets disconnected from the mobile phone during calls(to get the call back on headset I need to turn bt on/off on the xz)
Sometimes the headset states "connected to phone 1" but when I start a call it's not possible to use the headset (same fix, bt on/off on the xz)
Also the Voice Commands are not working, a black page pops up and closes immediately.
The same Headset is paired with a Samsung S2, and there are no problems with that phone.
(...except voice commands, I've never tried them on that phone...)
Has somebody similar problems with a bt headset and this phone?
Has somebody similar problems with the same bt headset and this phone?
Is there a "magic app" that could fix problems or help debugging this problem?
(- I've tried the plantronics app, but this one was very unstable so I removed it.)
Kind regards
known issue

its a known issue with bluetooth headsets. But I have a Sony MDR-1RBT and i have never had music skip. At the same time, not so lucky if i am listening on the free NFC speaker I got from Clove. Its a bit hit and miss really. May be do a factory reset and try again. If not try to replicate the issue and go to the nearest Sony Center for a warranty case ?
I just wanted to add that I have a Nexus 4 with the Plantronics Voyager Legend and I'm having the same issue of random disconnects during a call. I'm running AOKP on my phone. I still haven't figured out how to fix it, but this is not just happening on the Sony Xperia Z.

Hi, I have been experiencing the same issue on my Xperia LT28i also known as international Ion for several months now. I think I started having it around the time when I upgraded to ICS. Since then performed 2 hard resents but problem didnt go away. Nothing like this was experienced on Gingerbread (the version of the OS that came with the phone...
BTW, I am using two differen bluetooth earpieces - a Jabra and a Jawbone. Both have the same problem with sony - random transfer of teh conversation from the earpiece to the phone. this is really annoying when driving... Sometimes it gets worse and does it every 5 mins. other times wont happen an entire day...
I waited for 6 month for the JB update, hoping it would cure the problem. Updated to JB on AUG 1 but the problem persists. Thinking about sending the phone to Sony for repair...
