Jabra BT800 & Qtek9000

[Andre77ab]

I'm looking to know if the Jabra BT800 is compatible with the Qtek 9000, anyone can help me?

[Crash Override]

Sorry about the delay, only just noticed this question, yes, the BT800 works with the Universal / XDA Exec / Qtek 9000 I use one myself.

Hi,

Hi,

Just the number! MS BT stack doesn't implement this interesting feature.
However you can use the SW on this link http://www.jetwaremobile.com/index.htm from JETware Mobile

Hi All!!!!
Yes, I saw letters on my JABRA's display after about one year of using this piece of almost useless crap! I have installed the latest version from jetwaremobile.com and it finally works. Previos versions just didn't worked!

(I wouldn't like to describe all issues and low quality if BT800, I just use it in a car to answer urgent calls.)

BUT!
1. If the name in the contact calling you - is not in English - you will see nothing on the LCD Screen;
2. It takes ages the name to appear on the screen (5 rings or more) even if I called few times;
3. It uses Jabra's internal memory to store the contacts. So, if you have 1000+ contacts (like I do), there is no chance to use this feature. (But, you stil can create a separate Category for the hot contacts, and setup jetwaremobile's software discussed here to load only these numbers).

So, All, train your memory and remember all your 1000+ phone numbers yourself :)

In my case names are displayed quite fast. But I've just a few hundreds of contacts... if it makes the difference.
Also managed to have previous versions working (v1 and v1.11. OK also for 1.20 Beta)

I guess your problem with non English names, means non occidental characters!? Because it is OK with mine and they are not English.

To avoid some potential problems I've ticked in 'Advance options', just what I'm interested in, 'Caller ID'
My only frustration is that I wish large names to scroll, otherwise many contacts seems to be the same...

@dima_the_chief
how can you browse contacts from bt800. I only know about last ten calls are stored in headset.
As for delay this is true but only sometime when devices loose conectivity,usualy works fine for me with xda2 wm2005.

As far as I understood dima, didn't say that.
In fact BT800 doesn't allow to browse contacts stored on device!

then what to understood with:

It means BT800 uses internal memory to keep lookup tables, that would allow to correlate an incoming number, with the correspondent name.
Doesn't mean you can browse the contacts list, from the headset, what in fact you can't.
Most probably it is technically close to be possible, bu it isn't in the feature list or at least implemented so.

No! i CAN NOT BROWSE THE CONTACTS with my crappy-shitty BT800.
But, I can review last 10 incoming calls. I can see names instead of numbers.
There is a compatibility sheet on http://jetwaremobile.com/bthfx/support.htm .
It says that BT 800 only can do a Voice dial, In-band ringtones and the Caller Id.

Why dont you think, BT800 loads the name for the incoming call on demand? That could explain the delay for the Caller Name display on incoming call.

I don't think so, but yes, it is a possibility also.

HI All, gabiz_ro!
Sorry for bullshitting you, but my latest investigations shows, that, even the jetwaremobile's SW will try to send all off my 1000+ contacts to the BT800 it wount accept them.
My proposition about storing all the contacts in internal memory of the BT 800 - is wrong.
But, other BT headsets still can do that! And those devices can browse the phonebook. Like Parrot 3200 LS doest. But, it has a limitation of contacts to load. In this case you have to create a Hot Contacts cathegory in your contacts.
Hope this post gave clearance on the subject.

Hi All!

With this post I would like to warn the newbies against purchasing the JABRA BT 800.

Guys!!!!!!!! Spend some time and find another product!
More reliable, stable and usefull!!! You will NOT meet your challenge with purchasing this useless crap!

After using for about a year of BT 800, I have finally got it bricked.
I would not like to discribe here my unseccessful experience of using it for a year, will only descirbe the technological issues in the product.

The main buttons stopped responding to my presses. As the warranty is almost not working in my place, I tryed to repair the device myself.

The reason was - the tailanted chaineese engineer's solution to use the small shitty piece of the plastic as a spring for the buttons. Of course after the year of rare using, this plastic part was broken, preventing the microswitch to be pushed.
Had to change the button's design and introduce the spiral spring to make it working again.

Sorry for the technical details, ALL, just do not buy BT 800 not to be concerned to the subject.

Yes, I am a strong man, and have weight down the buttons, especially when JABRA do not respond to my pressings during the incoming calls (How many of them I lost thanks to BT 800!!!!!).

How will I live further? Will buy an expencive but more reliable kar kit to use in a car and will continue using just a plain Uni for regular calls.

I like this program and all but before installing it, I used to be able to hear my actual phone ringing instead of it just ringing in my Jabra BT800 headset. I can't seem to figure out how to have them both ringing, any suggestions?

Just not possible. It is the normal behaviour JetWare implemented, just like that.

See their answer I received this week about the same question, bellow.

"The behavior you observe, of the ring going only to the headset when “Use phone ringtones” is checked, is expected behavior."

[cktlcmd]

Does anyone have the tekkeon ez 3000 with the Jetware app using the Universal? Any comments?

Does this mean that when you are reviewing the 10 incoming calls you see names instead of numbers? I can see only the numbers despite that I use jetware so I see the names when the call is coming in.

Hi All!
You might have read my experience of 1 year of using BT800 here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1056997&postcount=16

Now, after 1,5 years of using this product I have had the following problems with it:
1. The buttns are broken, one and another - the weak plastic lags that are used by a talented chinese engineer, as a buttons\springs were broken in two, and I had to repair those parts with a glue and piece of plastic.
2. The weak body is also shrunk and there are gaps between it's parts. The body is creaking on button press.
3. Finally, the ear arc is fall off the body!

Very crappy, unreliable, cheap - made and overpriced product! :mad:

What a load of crap jabraBT800 is. only had it 1 week and its coming to bits. worse BT ever

[andy_bez_wandy]

and how about trying new jabra 8010 ? it operates both A2DP and it is more likely its also operates called ID

does anyone tried it on xda exec ?

Just got mine 2 days back... havent had the time to play much with it though. Just a few observations:

1. It has a phone book which can store upto 30 numbers.
2. It has a great caller ID which will display the Name if it is present in the phonebook

Overall I am quite happy with it as it is but as always want more.... I want to be able to get a caller ID name from the Exec's phonebook and have installed Jetware...which hasnt worked so far...but like i said i still need more time to play with it.

The stereo convertible feature is cool... but my main purpose is as a Headset. Will post the results when I have though the first impression with WMP running on Helmi 3.5 vanila ROM paired with it had a jerky playback.

more later... would love to hear form anyone who has got the caller ID - name working with this thing using Jetware or otherwise..

regards, Mayank
