Bluetooth on HD2 + Volvo built-in Bluetooth - HD2 Accessories

Hi,
I'm having problems connecting my HTC HD2 to my Volvo S80 bluetooth, The phone sync's OK, I can dial calls but I get no audio through the cars speakers; neither does it dim the sound.
I happend to use a HTC TYTN II with the same car, where it all worked flawlessly.
Does anyone have the same problem with his/her Volvo?
Does anyone have a working combination of a HD2 + Volvo?
Any help/direction will be appreciated.

I have the same issue with my Jag.. have you tried to initiate the call FROM the car vs. from the phone?

Yeah, I've tried it both from the phone, as well as the keypad of the car. Funny thing is that the phonebook seems to synchronize correctly between phone & car, so I have a working connection.
It's just the problem that I have described earlier in this thread.
Did you manage to solve it?

It is very wonky - I can see the addressbook on my car's display, i can dial and have a convo but it hangs after I hang up the phone. I cannot dial from the phone which is strange. I imagine a software patch could repair

Try setting the authenticated connection to OFF
Dunno if it will help, but from
Start-Settings, then <menu> All settings (its the quickmenu bottom right)
Bluetooth -
then you can set properties (nickname and authorized connections)
------------
Having similair problem with Bluetooth Headset and Cyberon Voice Speed dial software. Won't work unless initiated the call from phone)

WOW!!! You did it! thanks so much... who would have thought I should turn auth connection OFF!?!

Volvo Connection
Hi - I am having exactly the same issue with the connection in my C30, it syncs fine, connects okay just no audio on either the phone or the car
I have tried the fix above which didnt work for me - any ideas?
I have got it working fine on a bluetooth headset so not the phone

My Volvo dealer did it
Everything solved, by installing the latest bluetooth software into my car. It seems that an update is available twice a year, and I have just had my Volvo dealer install the latest into my one year old car.
Everything is now working fine.
(And then I thought that Bluetooth was a certified standard, but hey, I work in business software, so I probably should have known better )
I can highly recommend driving by your Volvo agent.

Volvo Bluetooth HTC HD2
Warnink:
Where are you located in the world? My Volvo dealer (and Volvo Norway) could not find any software update for my car. I have an 2010 V70 and I have the same issues as you had.
Did your dealer give you any details about the software?
André

I was lucky while it lasted
When I drove off from my dealer, he made sure that I had the last version of the bluetooth software. Everything worked smoothly then, and also for a couple of days.
Unfortunately I am back to square one now, since it stopped working again.
On another forum, I received some replies, telling me it has to do with the bluetooth stack, that is being used by the HTC HD2. I am sofar unable to verify this, and neither do I have a solution.
I have sent an email to HTC as well, telling them about this issue, but have so far not received any reply.
Hope that either Volvo, or HTC will pick up on this issue, because the combination of driving a Volvo, and using a HD2 can hardly be matched (but only if they function properly) If you encounter a solution, keep me (us) posted.
(By the way: I live in Holland )

the same...
Hi !
I do have the same problems with my XC70 MY10. My Bluetooth version in the car is 04.22_R. Which version do you have !?
In the past with my Touch HD I used Jetware bluetooth handsfree 1.40 and most of the time it worked. Unfortunately that version is not running on my HD2.
Is there anything planed like this to have for the HD2 ?
Which other solutions would be possible ? How many people are infected and is it only a VOLVO problem ?
Best regards !

Same here. Latest sofware version installed (already two time), now 4.22R. It's unbelievable. A Navigon or Tom Tom appliance, or any BT Handfree stuff of 100 euro's connects and works without any problem, but a 80.000 euro Volvo... I can't figure out why, the phonebook syncs, it dials, but no sound. Nor does it stop radio/cd/tv. Waiting for next upgrade (either BT of Volvo or the whole car?)

Not supported by Volvo yet
Here is a link for the Netherlands, where you can check what phone models are supported by Volvo bluetooth. Currently, the HD2 is not listed.

Solved problem
Hi!
I had some initial problems pairing my HTC hd2 with my S80 from -06.
Now it works fine without any bluetooth updates from Volvo.
The problem I had was that the call was disconnected just as it was connected.
I could make the call but as soon as someone answered, the call was disconnected.
I'm not really sure what did the trick but I tried with the settings in:
Start -> Settings -> Meny -> More -> Bluetooth
Under Advanced there is an option to play system sound on the remote bluetooth device. I have it checked, not sure if that is needed.
So try to change the settings in Start -> Settings -> Meny -> More -> Bluetooth
If I get the time I'll try to write a more detailed guide...
The main thing is that with proper settings it works, without updates.

Although it does not enable you to sync your phonebook, you can at least call normally; this did the trick for me.

I tried the settings posted on the previous pages and for the first time my HD2 pairs with my Range Rover handsfree.
I didn't find the registry values exactly as in the previous post so here's an updated list of what worked for me:
I downloaded Mobile Registry Editor (freeware from here http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/De...or-10636.shtml
Then I made the following registry changes:
1. Modify the HandsFree plug-in: HKLM\Software\WIDCOMM\Plugin\HandsFree
i. Change SupportedFeatures to 45 (default is 1135 mine was 1379)
ii. Add value HFBDA binary, set to same value as LastConnectedBda
iii. Add value HFDeviceType DWORD 2
2. Modify the WIDCOMM bluetooth general settings: HKLM\Software\WIDCOMM\BtConfig\General
i. Change bdaddr to (no value) delete the existing key value
ii. Change DisableReopenAudio to 0 (default is 1) I didn't have this registry key so I created it with DWORD value 0
3. Reboot device

I found (on another thread) that just turning off the data connection enables most of the BT and audio-linked functionality... Though mine doesn't seem to update the recent calls list made from the car.
BUT the downside would be losing out on push email or other data services like weather, stocks (who cares!), and things like satnav live services (traffic, etc.) until you re-enable data. I haven't yet tried Tungsten's ideas above - hopefully tomorrow!
NB. which bluetooth version do you have? (In the menu on the sound system) I apparently have the current version and my Volvo dealer said that even an update could either maybe not work/work fine/trash my phone's BT UNLESS Volvo had by then listed my phone as compatible (HD2 currently not listed). Plus I would still be charged £60-70 so I opted not to risk it.
From what I can gather and although bluetooth is a "standard", it maybe to do with using different stacks - HTC apparently doesn't use the Microsoft stacks...

Problem fixed
Everyone...I picked up my HD2 on Thursday, same issue with my 2009 Volvo S80. Connected but no audio picked up or transferred...until today.
Complete the pairing with the vehicle.
Then
Go into the "OTHER SETTINGS" (Located toward the bottom of the Main Settings Section)
Under Other Settings is "CAR KIT"
Make sure to have a check box in both options. "Navi" & "Automatically transfer to Car Kit"
Save.
Your set..works like a charm.

Just curious

dude? why?
hey man sorry that guy was such a jerk dont want that to be your first expericne here as long as you search before asking most people will be more then willing to help you. sorry i cant help ya though. my only guess is maybe did you install a wm 6.1 rom? they have some probems with bluetooth but i dont think thats it
Did you try it without Jetware? Made sure your bluetooth was set as discoverable? Paired the device? The more info YOU provide as to what you've done, tried, & what setup you've done it with...the beter the help & answers you'll get.
I'd suggest filtering through the following threads. There have been similar problems fixed:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364559&highlight=Kaiser+Nokia+car+kit
In the above thread the original poster solved his nokia carkit issue following this:
1. Pair the TyTN II to the car (Nokia HT-2) phone.
2. Switch car ignition OFF and switch off TyTN II.
3. Remove SIM from TyTN II.
4. Place SIM into a compatible phone (in my case Nokia N95).
5. Switch on N95, switch on Bluetooth, switch on Remote SIM access.
6. Change the Bluetooth ID name on the N95 to the same as the TyTN II.
7. Make phone discoverable via Bluetooth.
8. Switch on car ignition - car phone will not be able to connect.
9. Using car controls search for new device.
10. When N95 is found, select connect, it will use the same user profile as the TyTN II (if you selected the same name for the Bluetooth ID).
11. On the car browse to Settings - Phonebook - Update, this will then import all your contacts from your N95 (or compatible phone).
12. Switch off ignition and switch off N95.
13. Replace SIM back to TyTN II.
14. Ensure TyTN II Bluetooth is ON, Remote SIM is ON and the phone is Discoverable.
15. Switch on car ignition - car phone will not be able to connect.
16. Using car controls search for new device.
17. When TyTN II is found, select connect, it will use the same user profile as before.
18. Now browse the car Phonebook as normal - All your contacts are now available for you to use.
19. Don't forget to turn off discoverability on the TyTN II and to rename your compatible phone (N95) to prevent any future conflicts.
This worked for me! I hope it will work for you! Good Luck!
I did try it with removing the jetware the bluetooth works fine but cant download contacts is there anyother patch or software more compatable with nokia bluetooth devices. Jet ware is good but wont let me disconect call when done any one else have an issue like this
BOBBYDS1 is your connection between the Kaiser and the Car Kit using Bluetooth as a headset (in other words the phone still functions and you can look up and dial with the phone) or is it using rSAP (Remote Sim) which switches your Kaiser into flight mode.
I ask this as it will determine which way you look for a solution. If its using rSAP then most Nokia systems that are fitted into cars as factory fit have not yet developed the correct software to communicate with Windows Mobile devices, in which case you will need to remove Jetware from you Kaiser and use my solution on a previous post as quoted above.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...+Nokia+car+kit
Mark
The phone still functions as i can disconnect by the phone it self here is the thing sometimes I can disconnect call by the nokia bluetooth device but a lot of times I cannot disconnect, i have to pull phone out of my pocket and end call
@BOBBYDS1 and fb.knight
No offence guys, but you need to go back to Junior High and learn how to use commas, question marks and letter cases.
Posts like that will rarely get you any kind of a reasonable response.
what nokia bluetooth car kit are you trying to use?
Still not clear if your carkit is using headset or rSAP profiles. Can you either tell us the model of the carkit, or tell us if you can browse the internet from the phone whilst its connected to the carkit?
Punctuation good enough there Dark?! (JOKE!!)
IT is a Nokia CK15-w Bluetooth Car kit Here is a link to it. http://www.nokiausa.com/A4431279
Also I can surf the internet while it is connected to the bluetooth.
Looks like that model supports:
Hands-free Profile 1.5, Phonebook Access Profile 1.0
(Source: Nokia Europe
The Kaiser supports:
File Transfer Profile, SIM Access Profile (rSAP), Dial-Up Networking Profile, Personal Area Networking Profile, Hands-Free Profile 1.5, Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (I'm guessing A2DP)
(Source: www.theunwired.net
So I'm guessing that whilst it will work as a glorified headset, you have no chance of getting your contacts downloaded! Should be able to get them from your SIM, just not the main memory. Wonder why Nokia removed the rSAP profile? It was on their 610 (rSAP only) 616 (rSAP and Handsfree) then from the 810 and CK-15 it seems to be handsfree only. This could be why so many are having problems with Nokia carkits, Nokia went and changed the supported bluetooth profiles. Funny, I would have thought the newer the model, the more it would have done, but I guess not! Glad I looked into this as I was thinking about 'upgrading' to the 810 for the full handset, guess I won't be now!
I am getting confused, I downloaded the jetstream program to the phone and was able to download the contact list no problem. The problem i am having is when i make a call from the nokia bluetooth when I am done and hit the endcall button on the nokia it does not end the call, I have to pull out the phone and hit the end button on the phone itself. any suggestions on how to correct this.

So downloading contacts isn't your problem, hanging up whilst having jetware installed is? Better post would have been something along the lines of:
"I'm having trouble ending calls on my Kaiser using the end button on my Nokia CK-15 carkit. I installed the Jetware program to enable downloading contacts, but this stops the end key working on the Kaiser, before this it was working fine just the carkit couldn't download contacts. Does anyone know of any settings in Jetware I can try, that would restore the end key function, or other software that would still enable me to download contacts and have and end key?" - That might have got you an answer sooner...
Right, the phone as it comes doesn't support phonebook access, thus you won't be able to download your contacts. Actually, none of the Nokia bluetooth carkits support downloading contacts from the internal memory of a Windows Mobile device, probably because no Nokia uses Windows Mobile (yet).
You add something like Jetware which gives you the ability to access the phonebook, but then you are unable to end a call via the carkit. My best guess is Jetware does something which interupts the commands from the carkit. I'm also guessing your stuck with either having contacts download or and end call option. Add Jetware back and play with it's settings. You may get lucky. However bluetooth is very buggy and the only way to get 2 devices to work perfectly with eachother without running the risk of having to fiddle or loose something is to buy them from the same manufacturer and check they are fully compatible with eachother. Two devices from 2 manufacturers don't always work.
Here are some examples:
Old Ericsson headset, will work perfectly with my old HTC phone and can't even be seen by my Kaiser. Slightly newer one (that has an LCD for caller ID) will work once connected until I switch it off, then requires the old HTC phone to be soft reset before it will connect again. Works perfectly with the Kaiser. Brand new, cheapy Motorola headset does what it feels like with no consistency on my older HTC, again works perfectly on the Kaiser. My Nokia 610 carkit will connect to both phones, but whilst the older phone needs to be soft reset before turning off the ignition (otherwise the phone part of things crashes), the Kaiser will connect and disconnect just as Nokia intend. The carkit will only download SIM contacts. The fix posted above isn't really a fix, it's fooling the carkit into thinking that another phone (the Nokia N95) is the kaiser, downloading the contacts from it and then reconnecting the real Kaiser. Not a fix, but a brilliant workaround.
Also noticed that the CK-15 uses bluetooth version 1.2, the Kaiser bluetooth version 2. This might be something to do with it.
In short, I think you will have to live with either a phonebook, or an end function. Welcome to the wonderful world of bluetooth. It also doesn't help that Nokia hasa a history of making devices which don't work with anything other than another Nokia device...
Is there any way to change the kaiser to use bluetooth 1.2. Also is there a way to contact jetware besides email as they dont reply.
In your reply you state thAT Nokia devices csnt download from internal memory of kaiser phone, how can i set it up to download from the sim is there a way.

I seriously doubt anyone will be writing a bluetooth stack v1.2 for the Kaiser anytime soon. I also have a feeling that the versions are hardware, not software related, so its impossible. I think you may have to accept that the Kaiser and Nokia will never play nicely. Why don't you install Jetware, sync your contacts, then either disable it (I'm sure I remember an option in the settings when I tried it previously) or just delete the program? You could keep the installer cab on your device somewhere as its only 500kb for when you need to reinstall it?
If there isn't a phone number on the jetware homepage, I'm betting you can't call them. But I did notice there is an advanced set-up options menu. Did you try unchecking all the boxes apart from phonebooks? If the "hang-up/swap to incomming call" option is unchecked, Jetware should pass that command to the phones standard bluetooth software and give you back your end key. From the Jetware site:
"When this option is unchecked the Extension will allow hang up commands to be processed by the built-in code, which will disconnect all active voice calls."
If it's currently checked, try unchecking it.

Have you read the manual? In my 610 manual, it tells me I can choose to dowload phone, SIM, or phone and SIM memory. Does yours?
Now it seems that call waiting is not working in the bluetooth unit, itried the settings both ways in jetware but still no go. any ideas

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.

Bluetooth stops/crashes when connected to Car kit

Hi,
When my phone is connected to my car kit (Opel/Vauxhaul UHP) bluetooth sometimes stops randomly. I can turn bluetooth on again with the commmanager and everything is working again. But it can hapen again after a few minutes.
Does anyone have this problem to or even better a solution?
I allready tried all the different Radio Roms, but this didn't solve my problem.
Well with mine i have some hickus but it just happpends once a while.
Most irritating about Diamond and BT in my opinion is that wa have no equalizing for it. and the sound setup from the begining is horrible.
Asked here if anyone has a solution before but none replied.
But as far 2 your problem no. And i use a Pioneer system in my car.

I've a JVC head and my bluetooth has no problem.
I have a Honda Accord with handsfree built in and I too am having problems. The phone and car both agree that a connection has been made but when i use it to either ring out or receive a call the radio mutes and when receiving the ringing tone sounds over the car speakers but I can`t hear the caller except on the phone which isn`t very useful. Would a ROM or radio upgrade help or is it just a compatibility problem

Thanks Mauser. I tried Jetware as you suggest and I`m afraid it didn`t help in fact I think it crashed the handsfree system in the car like you. This is the final nail in the coffin for my Diamond. I just can`t get used to it so it`s off to Ebay with it.

Did you try to check almost everything on in the advanced settings of Jetware? I have also limited the phonebook sync to max 5 entries to debug and on the site of Jetware there wat a fix for Opel car kits.
Keeping my fingers crossed, but until now I haven't experienced any bluetooth crashes.

Did you try to check almost everything on in the advanced settings of Jetware? I have also limited the phonebook sync to max 5 entries to debug and on the site of Jetware there wat a fix for Opel car kits.
Keeping my fingers crossed, but until now I haven't experienced any bluetooth crashes.

Thanks again Mauser. I tried various settings but without any success, I think the phone is just not compatible with the Honda. Having said that I don`t have much luck with bluetooth at all on the phone. More often than not It just won`t detect other bluetooth devices and when it does it won`t send or receive files so it`s time for it to go and I can go back to a trusty Nokia
Problems here with BT connection to car kit, too. I'm using the built-in car-kit of an Audi A4 (standard one not that with navigation, remote SIM, etc). I've noticed the following issues:
- when I try to make a call, the CD is cut off but NOTHING is heard in the car speakers UNTIL the other party answers the call (and then I start the conversation). No ringing tone, no nothing. I cannot hear the busy tone, or network failure/congestion tone and this is annoying since I have to keep an eye on the phone to see what's happening. I found myself checking the phone when, after calling someone, nothing happened and in fact I got a busy tone and the call ended.
- sometimes, when I receive a call, the CD stops playing but when I answer nothing is heard from the car speakers but only from the phone (as davemazo said also).
- when I receive a call, I hear in the car speakers a "standard" calling tone, not the ringtone I have assigned for that contact
I have to mention that with any Nokia I had before (and still have one as a second phone), these problems do not exist. I know there is a compatibility between Audi factory installed car-kits and Nokia, but BT is a standard and most of the functions should be supported despite the phone model/type. I've tried also with an iPhone and it's working great, as my Nokia do. I don't understand why it is like this with the Diamond. In fact, I think it is not related to Diamond itself...it's doing like this with ANY Windows Mobile device I've tried in the past (Orange C600, Samsung I600).
Are there any solutions for this? A CAB, a new BT radio, a software, anything?... I don't want to buy a new BT car-kit and try with different models until I find something compatible
Thank you for any info/tip

Hi Rapier,
I also had a SPV C500, MDA Compact, Qtek 8500, Samsung I600, HTC Touch Dual and now the Diamond. The only one which gave me no troubles was the SPV C500, but I think that was because this phone didn't support phonebook synchronization and had no network identification/signal strength over bluetooth.
After the SPV C500 it went wrong. First I noticed that after a hard reset it worked for a few days. Later (about 2 years later ) I found out that it was because the call history was going to long to sync over bluetooth.
Then I found Jetware in which you can limit syncing to any number of items. They even had a fix for the connection to my carkit.
Unit now... it works like a charm... but keep my fingers crossed
I don't know if your carkit is a Audi UHV, but I saw that they had a fix for that too! You have to just install Jetware and then run the fix-file from your phone. Good luck!!
P.S. I am in no kind related to Jetware, I just found out that it worked for me.
Yes, I have an Audi UHV 6634. Thank you for the info, I'll try that and post the results here. Though, my car-kit is not the advanced one and I don't have to sync anything with it (contacts or something else). It's most working as a plain hands-free device, no extra functions...speaking of which, I've noticed that on the phone is detected as "hands-free"...why not "car-kit" as I know a car-kit has other functionality as well? This is the "standard" BT device for any audio enhancements (even if it is a car-kit not a BT headset), or I have to activate something to be recognized as car-kit?

my Honda system doesn`t read the sim I can only dial out via handsfree using contacts i`ve entered into the Honda system otherwise I either have to read the number to the system and it will ring out (most of the time anyway) or make the call on the phone (illegally obviously) cancel the call and then say "redial" and the system makes the call. So uless I`m misunderstanding this setting I don`t think it will help me.
I`ve searched the Jetware website and I couldn`t find a fix for my Honda
UPDATE: So...I've downloaded it, install it on my Diamond (including the extension file for Audi UHV) and...no change. Everything as before with both issues. Disappointed, I've uninstalled Jetware then...surprise. AFTER uninstall, I can now hear through my car's speakers the ID ringtone Maybe some BT settings were altered and remained like this after uninstall, but I don't know why it didn't work when Jetware WAS installed...strange.
Anyway, many thanks...at least half of the problems are now solved and this only by install/uninstall a program...that's cool. I must now find a way to make the car kit ring when I make a call, this is still an issue.
P.S. I've seen that Diamond support Headset and Handsfree profiles...and when connected to my car kit is set as Handsfree. I suppose this is better than Headset...but still no ring out tone.

Hello,
I have a Mercedes car kit and facing the same issue as you: everything works perfectly for a few days when hard-resetting my device, even with my 500+ contacts (they are loaded in less than a minute), but after a few days/weeks I can't get to have my call history or contacts displayed in less than half an hour!
Yesterday I thought I'd just hard reset my device because I had this problem again, but unfortunately it didn't work!
Guess what I have done differently this time: yes, I backed up and restored my call history, which I hadn't done the previous times! So I guess it is indeed related to the call history, but I can't test for now!
I have installed JetWare and limited the call history to 5 numbers, I'll try this tonight and I'll keep you informed...
Hello,
So I have tested this yesterday (installed Jetware and limited the call history to 5 numbers), and now it works FLAWLESSLY! I can browse through my 500 contacts instantaneously when I pair my phone with my Mercedes car kit.
So, in my case it was also clearly the CALL HISTORY that was causing problems... A BIG BIG thanks to Mauser for pointing out this!
I'm also having problem connecting my Diamond to my Volvo S80. All the other functions work except that I could not hear the other party through my car stereo and I also could not diconnect the call with my car end key.
I'll try the Jetware and I'll report back later. Thanks for the pointer.

Bluetooth handsfree issue [SOLVED]

Hi @all!
I know there are many BT issues concerning TyTN II and WM6. But this one is new, I think:
After pairing my Kaiser (WM6.1) with my BMW E46 handsfree unit, the first call I make immediately after pairing works fine. But after terminating this first call, there is no sound at all. Neither my Kaiser nor the handsfree unit utters a sound, though my Kaiser displays the small handsfree-icon, that confirms the connection is established.
I tried so many things to solve this problem. I tried different radios and different ROMs. But nothing worked till now.
Does anybody have an idea?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I soved the problem on my own!
First, the BT extension software "JETWARE" didn't help. But then I changed the JETWARE settings - and voilà: this was the thing. In advanced options I selected "Phonebooks", "Query status indicators", "Update status indicators" ang "Hang up/ swap to incoming call". All other options in advanced options I unselected. Then in phonebook options I selected all categories to sync, opened the "menu" -> "set limits", selected "Exclude Fax numbers" and "Limit how many numbers to sync" and set all options to 0.
Then I hit "Done", "Done" and one more time "Done" and connected my Kaiser with my BMW Handsfree unit (E46 ULF). And what happened was unbelievable. It worked perfectly suddenly.
Maybe this workthrough can help anybody else.
My conclusion: JETWARE solves the silence problem, you just have to choose the right options in JETWARE settings!
Greets to all active board users!
Here are some specs:
HTC Kaiser
ROM: Official HTC WM6.1 Professional 3.03.405.0 WWE
Radio: 1.64.06.04
Protocol: 25.70.40.02W
Do a search for "Unexplained volume drop to zero".
It's an ongoing thread about this exact problem.
My problem is different, I think, because after turning bluetooth off in comm-manager, sound works fine again immediately.
Any ideas?
I have a similar issue when I pair my Tilt with the Parrot MK6100. It will work for a while and then I can try calling someone or receiving a call. It shows connected, but I do not hear anything. The far end cannot hear anything either. What works for me is to reset the Parrot by turning it off and then back on.
I would be interested in a fix for this.
Tried to solve the problem by turning off htc home. but no success. i'm getting mad ...
BMW bluetooth problem
I had a similar prblem with my BMW 740 e38, which uses teh same ULF box. I cured it by disconnecting teh battery. Note, if your radio uses a key code, check you have it before disconecting teh battery!
Good luck.

I have the same problem with my Audi, I think it is the Bluetooth in the car rather than the handset. I get this problem with several handsets. You might want to see is BMW has an update.
Diconnecting the car battery (for more than 30 minutes) didn't solve the problem.
Nobody out there who can help?!?!?!?!?!?

Try Jetware, it is a 30 day trial but I think it is the BT software in your BMW. Check some BMW forums and see if there is an update.
Bluetooth Issue
Hi guys,
it is definitely the TyTy II and not the Bluetooth in your car!
I have a Parrot MK 6000 in my Honda and had NO issues with my previous HTC TyTn in combination with the Parrot or any other bluetooth hands free.
After every phone call the phone looses bluetooth connection and re connects after a minute or so.
Really annoying! I'm thinking to get rid of the phone if there is no update very soon.
jetware doesn't solve the problem.
is ist possible that the protocol is the reason?
first, i supposed, the reason for that annoying problem could be the number of contacts in pocket outlook.
but in fact i really have no idea till now.
anybody out there who can HELP??????????
SOLVED
Look at my first post!

Bluetooth Car Kit Problems

I have experienced few irritating problems with my Diamond when used in my Seat Leon 2008's stock head unit via bluetooth:
1. Phonebook is displayed always and I can call phones from there which is OK, however "Incoming Calls", "Outgoing Calls" and "Missed Calls" are not working always: sometimes I have those lists filled with the corresponding entries, sometimes all three lists are empty.
2. When I am running iGO8, the bluetooth connection gets connected and disconnected each 5 minutes or so.
3. The headset volume is really low. I didn't have that problem with my Sony Ericsson phones before.
Does anyone have any of those problems and know a solution for them?
Only thing i can say. Stock seat bluetooth is terrible. My brother has orderd a new seat and the dealer advised to choose for the pioneer mounted radio because of the known problems with the seat unit and the bluetooth functions of it.
try posting in the Accesories section, u might get more help.

Pioneer isn't that good either, I had the Pioneer radio with Bluetooth and I couldn't get it running with my previous phone Trinity P3600 and with my Diamond it didn't work either.

I have used the stock head unit previously with simple mobile phones and it has always worked perfectly and I was very happy with the bluetooth implementation in Seat. So, I think the problem is not in the head unit (i.e. an accessory problem) but lies somewhere in the "phonebook through bluetooth" implementation in the Diamond.
Hello,
I have the same problem. I have a Skoda Octavia II (2007) with built-in bluetooth and a Diamond (ROM 2.03).
I use the iGO8, and it works fine, but the bluetooth connects and disconnects randomly in all ~5 minutes. When I shut down the iGO8 or when it runs on the background, the bluetooth works perfectly, when it runs in the foreground, the bluetooth disconnects again...
Who knows wat is this problem? Should I try a new ROM? A new radio version? A new iGO version?
CyberGene: Have you a solution for this problem? Or you use a different iGO8 or a different navi software?
Thanks,
DuckHead_
Unfortunately I didn't find any solution to the problem. To be honest, I am currently using a SonyEricsson phone and the Diamond is used by my girlfriend. We are still using iGo from within the Diamond but with no Bluetooth activated.
Thank you for the quick answer.
Why don't you just take your car into a car audio place and get them to check it out for you
I thought it so that the problem with Diamond. The BT does not work only if running the iGO...
