MDA Vario & Bluetooth carkit

[CableTalk]

I use my MDA Vario in connection with a Siemens HKW-600 Bluetooth Carkit w/ display.

Everything just works fine, audio is of good quality except for network provider and battery status not being displayed in the carkit's display.

With my previous phone (SE T-630) and my wife's Motorola V3 this does work (displaying T-Mobile and correct battery status) so the problem must be within the MDA Vario.

Trying to solve this I installed JETware software (as recommended elsewhere on this forum). Network provider and battery status were displayed but some settings (such as "use phone ring tones") just can not be disabled. This is very annoying as this caused limitation / cancellation of functionality I do have without this JETware.

Now, as everything else works fine, I only need a solution which enables that network operator and battery status are displayed in my Siemens HKW-600 carkit.

Are there any registry tweaks, utilities or other ways (other than JETWare) to manage this?

I have the same problem (T-Mobil MDA III + Siemens HKW-600 Bluetooth Carkit w/ display) and I share your pain! My wife's Moto V360 displays perfectly. In addition, I find that an incoming call causes the Siemens ringer to ring at max volume sometimes so I'm terrified that a call might come in :shock:

Actually, I was just about to write my question when I found yours.

I experienced same with loud ring tones. But a solution is not that hard:

The volume of an incoming call could be lowered by decreasing the volume of the carkit: use the button on the right side of the display.

To compensate for volume while calling: raise the volume on the phone itself.

Hope this is of help for you.

I solved this issue by installing this: http://www.jetwaremobile.com/index.htm. My Qtek now displays the provider, signal strength and is using my ring tone - all that was missing first when paired with my Audi OEM handsfree.

I solved this issue by installing this: http://www.jetwaremobile.com/index.htm(...)and is using my ring tone (...)

As you might have read, I have installed Jetware and experienced some problems with this, especially the use of the phone ring tone which can not be turned off. I appreciate your reply, but you just recommend what I want to avoid :wink:
