Strange problem with bluetooth headset :(

---

Hi everyone!

New to this forum but got my Qtek S100 a couple of weeks ago and found an irritating bug in it..

When I use my SonyEricsson HBH-300 Bluetooth headset everything is fine until I've talked for ~7 minutes.. after that the other party doesn't hear me while I still can hear the other party.. Sometimes my mic never comes back during that call but sometimes it's back after about half a minute or so.. the funny thing is that if it comes back it goes away againg in about 14 minutes.. and perhaps 21, 28 and so on.. haven't really made that long calls with that headset because of the bug..

The headset works fine with other phones, at least SE Z1010, SE P900, Nokia 6630 etc..
And the S100 works fine with my Bluetooth GPS..

Has anyone experienced anything similar?
Have you got other bluetooth headsets, do they work for long ( +7 minutes) calls?

Cheers

That also happened to me in the beggining after erasing the handsfree from my devices and paired it once more its running fine since then!

HI!

di7 riks.....I am using a Motorola HS810 Bluetooth handsfree with my O2 XDA II Mini and the same 7 minute problem is happening to me also. Initially it was 12 minutes but now it is down to 7. I can hear the other party but they can't and then I have to disconnect and dial again.

think I will do as katsj did...try pairing teh device again.

This is a known issue. Apparently, what is happening is that the device is going to sleep, and bringing down part of the bluetooth with it. The quick'n'dirty solution is to set your device to never power off, and just turn it off manually. Hopefully this will be fixed in the next round of ROM updates :?

I have an "almost" similar problem: I answer the call with the HBH-300 and talk for about 10 seconds after which I can hear nothing (the other part hears nothing also). If I close the handsfree from the MDA Compact then I can continue talking from the MDA (the call is not ended).

If I close the call and make a new call I get the same problem. But if I switch off the HBH-300 headset and switch it on again then the problem stops and in the following calls I can talk using the HBH-300.

This problem appeared only twice in the 15 days that I am using the MDA.

Obviously the phone did not power off in 10 secs (it was on when I had the problems) so the "sleep issue" mentioned previously could not have created the problem. Only the backlight goes off in 10 seconds. Do you think that the backlight might cause problems to the bluetooth?! :shock:

I am facing both problems described here. Does anyone know of a solution?

This is a known issue, but unfortunately it is not stated on Club IMate as a known issue.
This is concerning, because I assume i-Mate Techs are not working on this issue.
Over at Howards Forums Bengalboy states if you press the devices call button twice the headset incoming audio gets reactivated. I have yet to test it, because my caller hangs up before I get the device out of the case to press the call button twice.
One of these days I will beat the clock.

1.5 years ok, way back in Oct-03 I remeber many of us scrambling about all the MS Stack issues on the MDA II/XDA II, etc, and eventually tools were developed to help the issues.

I get rid of the PDA2K, because of all it's issues. Now the PDA2K has a better ROM and a new fix for the Broadcom stack.
Oh the misery.

I pressed the power switch on and also pressed the call button twice...I dont know which worked but my call did not get disconnected after the 7th minute...

Ujj

BT headset cutting out

---

I have the same problem - BT headset cutting out after a limited period of time, ~10 seconds.

Same problem here, when using bluetooth headset people can't hear me after 8 minutes, pressing the green talk button twice restores the connection.

Second problem: phone does not answer call automagic with bluetooth headset. (jabra BT 200)

Third problem: no voice dialing and no possibility to hear who is calling.

Are these MS Bugs or HTC Bugs?
