XDA II Delay in Receiving Calls

[ekko star]

Been having a problem on my XDA II in that when I receive a call and answer it, it takes a few seconds before I can hear the other person. Sometime it woks fine and others the person can hear me but I can't hear them ?

It has been back for repair 3 times and it still does the same thing. The speaker is fine as it works loud and clear, it's only on incoming calls not on outgoing.

The place where I have bought it will now swap it out for a XDA IIi as you cant get the II anymore around here. That's great but I would still like to know why it went wrong ? Anyone got any clues ?

plz explain what is delayed.
Could it be just too much s/w running?
I found that when I am running activesync, calendar & contacts sometimes there is an awful delay in the response of the MDAII. Especially the BT headset has delays then of more then 20seconds (so I answer call on MDAII and then transfer it to headset when this occurs).

:shock: Me too!
Not sure if I should answer on screen,accept or reject,or green button.Both seem to delay,often with caller ringing again.

When the phone rings and you answer it. You hear nothing. It's a case of hello ? hello ? etc. They can hear you but I can't hear them then all of a sudden their sound will just kick in.

Actually sometimes when I dial out, I never hear a ringing tone and all of a sudden the person cuts in.

There is a delay. I have no software running at all. It does this from a hard reset as well.

What bugs me is that it has gone back 3 times and they claim it has been tested and fixed. It clearly hasn't.

Hope the XDA IIi is better, cos this was very annoying.

Hi Ekko,

Would you happen to be running Pocket Bluetooth Tools?

Cheers,

Hi, the phone was fine until about 6 mths old when it started doing this. I had Pocket Bluetooth on it and it used to be totally fine. This never affected it at all.

Obviously once this problem arose, I have hard reset the machine on a number of occasions and have used it as a clean machine. Same problem ? So not down to Bluetooth Tools.

In order to use an Himalaya with a BT headset you need to run 2.20 translated. The Hands Free profile works better and it will even support caller ID and there is no delay when answering calls.
