I received my HT-820 this morning.

I followed this guide and have successfully listened to music over the headset.

I've also recorded a voicemail message so the phone function seems to work.

Hello.
I got my Qtek S110 to work with the Motorola HT 820 too, but I have some problems.
- there are glitches in the playback. I think due to the fixed 195kbps connection rate (the device must transform the music played).
- I have more gitches and stops when the bitrate of the music is over 195 kbps.
- if I turn the audio redirection and auto mute on then I can not hear anytheng (eg. ringtone) when the headset swithed off. I have to manually turn off the redirection.
- the redirection only works with MS Media Player.

Is there any idea to solve this issues?

If you read the HT820 quickk start guide,
http://www.motorola.com/mdirect/manuals/QG-HT820HdPhns.pdf
It says that "Note: You may need to wait several seconds before
hearing music in the headphones while the devices
connect."

This is why the first few seconds of the song/track are skippy. If ther are ever connection problems, the same thing happens midway through the song.

When you turn the headphone off, you need to turn the bluetooth audo settings off as well.

These issues make me believe that this patch/update is only a beta/test version and not the real thing, especially as the Bluetooth on the HT820 is done by the same people that made this patch (CSR)

quick question to ht820 owners,

can you tell me if you can use these headphones for voice dial?

bluetake bt450 cannot, you have to dial via phone, then headset can be used to hangup.


thanks

in advance

I would answer that question but I've never used voice dial. is that what Microsoft Voice Command is used for?

What I CAN tell youthough, is that on the second page of the manual, it tells you how to "make a voice dial call"

thanks for the reply,

reading the instructions in "make call" first instruction says "hold button then speak after tone"
bluetake doesn't have that function

thanks again

two final questions, if you don't mind,

are they supplied with audio cable to use with non bluetooth music player?

and is the audio quality good or great or just ok?


thanks again again

I don't mind.

Yes, there is an audio cable that will connect the headset's 2.5mm socket with a regular 3.5mm one.

The audio quality is as good as I've heard. Any audio problems you get with the PDA will be due to the bluetooth patch which I believe is still experimental.

The HT820 works very nicely particularly if the Magician is tweaked with Pocket Hack Master. The skips are barely noticeble and the lag at the beginning of each track is minimised. Voice Dialing works flawlessly with Cyberon Voice Speed Dial...the HT820 mic relays the command to the Magician...BUT...same issue with MVC...you don't hear the voice command relayed from the Magician back to the headset.

The one thing that I have not been able to work is the "resume playback after a phone call" even with the option ticked off in /menu/options/playback in Windows Media Player. Everytime I answer a call or make a call, WMP reverts back to the default Library opening screen. I've read in the other thread that others have had it working the way it should.

Any ideas?

Where can I get this pocket hack master?

I did't change any of the settings and mine automatically resumes playback after answering a call.

www.pocketgear.com ....cost 15 bucks.... worth it IMHO

download the trial and give it a spin... buy it if it works for you....

you'll be able to overclock or underclock your cpu speed and set certain fixed speeds for certain applications... I've found that different settings works best for different machines...tried it on three different Magicians with different ROMS and different applications... the settings that works best for my Jam and the HT820 are :

CPU between 260 to 520
Bus between 104 to 117
Ram between 52 to 59
LCD between 52 to 59

you've got to find what works for you... :) Not perfect mind you, but certainly a LOT better then without...like I said I barely notice the skips and depending on the CPU speed set, the delay at the front of each new track can be cut to a split second... all my tracks are at 192 kbps BTW... mow if only I can get the darn WMP to resume play after a call ... :evil:

Hi all,

I am new to this forum...and obviously not so bright on the settings etc of the XDAIIi of mine...for your info my XDA details are as below,

ROM date - 01/27//05
Radio version - 1.00.00
Protocol version - 1337.39
ExtROM version - 1.11.169 WWE

The way i look at your radio version and ROM version... they are far more bigger than the number that I have on my XDA.... is there any update link you can provide for me to improve my XDA???

Second Q is, I have bought the motorolla HT820 and i would like to have Stereo Bluetooth enabled on my XDA.. but i don't know the hows ...

Can someone please guide me through step by step....I would really appreciate it.... Many Thanks....

This topic may be of interest to those who have the Motoroal HT820 bluetooth headset, and want to tweak music playback.

I prefer to untick "automute" so that I can hear the phone ring and can issue Voice Commands with MS Voice Command. Problem I was having, every time I opened Windows Media Player to stream music, it would blare out of the internal speaker as well. Here's the fix:

I´ve installed the cab file and activated the "stream audio" option, my headset is registered and connected, but it is not available in the list of headsets where i checked the "stream audio" box. The list is empty. Maybe just working with stereo headsets ?

Hey all i've followed the prompts time and time again but i come up with the issue that once connected to the ht820 and i open windows media player to play a song the following error msg pops up:
"Bluetooth is turned off. Bluetooth audio has been disabled. Enable Bluetooth audio by turning on Bluetooth, then select Use Bluetooth audio again."

I switch bluetooth off and on and the same msg pops back up when i go to play a song!!!

WTF???

I'm thinking that because i've installed this hack and the other bluetooth hack and removed soo many times i might be in need of a hard reset!


Help so i dont have too PLEASE

Yes, just stereo.
There is a mono way though.

Make sure Bluetooth is on and the phone is not in flight mode.

If all else fails, backup your data (xbackup) and hard reset.
