6300 Bluetooth a2dp headset reconnection issue

Hi,
I have a Nokia 6300 with latest firmware/software. I am using a SE MW600 Bluetooth stereo headset for listening music, everything ok but when I try to reconnect it always loose connection. It says Disconnecting... .
I had the same issue before with a non-original (No brand) A2DP headset. It seems this is not the headset's issue, I think this is the Nokia 6300 phone's issue.
It is 2010 now, but Bluetooth is not compatible with its devices.
What is the solution? Why do I have to pay for something for Bluetooth, for Symbian, for Nokia phone they can not make a compatible device / accessory / software ? Is Bluetooth a standard? Why do we have to pay for those ?engineers who can not make a compatible device?

Well, I decided I didn't want to put up with this anymore, so my Pre went back to the store yesterday. I'm just sick of having a phone that's missing one crucial feature or another--I've been a loyal Palm customer for many years now, but it seems like they have turned into a second-class company. Lack of support and updates, shoddy products, etc.--it just seems like they never quite get it right.
So, I'm somewhat sorry to say it, but I'm going to get an iphone. While I'd prefer to have a device that had a physical QWERTY keyboard, I'm willing to put up with a virtual one as long as the phone operates correctly.
So, thanks for the memories, Palm! On to the iphone I go.........

4.2 for Pearl 8100 for support of Bluetooth A2DP or AVRCP to pair with Motorola S9 headset

According to Doc ID : KB13930, it'll be supported on BlackBerry Device Software 4.2.2. Does anybody know when it'll be released or if one can participate in a beta trial of the software?
<< The Bluetooth Stereo Audio Profile is supported in BlackBerry Device Software 4.2.2. BlackBerry devices running BlackBerry Device Software 4.2.1 or earlier do not support this feature. For more information on BlackBerry devices running BlackBerry Device Software 4.2.2 or later see KB04195.
Note: A BlackBerry device user may successfully pair with a Bluetooth enabled headset if the BlackBerry device is running BlackBerry Device Software 4.2.1; however, the music audio is unable to be heard on the headset and comes out through the speakerphone.>>

Hey all,
As with most of you, I'm experiencing the same issues with both my mouse and keyboard not pairing after changing batteries. I spoke with my tech guy at work and he knows of the problem and told me how to fix it - which I tried but couldn't do it. So I brought them into work and gave then to my tech guy just to see if they would pair with another Mac G5. He was having the same problem but was able to get them to pair. This is what he did -
1. Ran the BT set up.
2. When he made it to the enter passkey and typed in the PK but it didn't work, he would hit the continue button, turn the keyboard off/on super fast and retype in the PK.
After a few times, it worked. He also suggested pulling the batteries out and placing them back in in the middle of the process. He doesn't know why this works other then saying "it's finicky".
Just one other note. He got my mouse to connect with no problem. I couldn't at home. I'm writing this at work and will try this solution tonight and let everyone know if it works for me.
Hope this helps

Best Bluetooth a2dp adapter and Headset....

I'm after best combination for Music. Im looking at the Sony TMR-BT8iP for the adapter. And for the headset the Motorola S9 headset.
But I'd like to know a few things from the experienced user's of these products
Whats the adapter like?
Any good with the S9?
What's the battery life on the S9 headset?
Any serious problems with these devices?
And finally are there any better Combo's out there for Music?
Cheers
Fletch

I just posted on a different message about this (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1677530&tstart=0), so I am just copying it here...
I recently bought the Sony "TMR-BT8IP" wireless transmitter for iPod (http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=1055 1&storeId=10151&langId=-1&productId=8198552921665274447), and I can tell you it works great on my iPhone 3G, I use it to listen music meanwhile at the gym on its full stereo glory. It is so good not to be attached by the wires to listen music and exercise at the same time. And stops the music if there is a incoming call, though I think this maybe a iPhone feature rather than the adapter.
BTW. I use a Sony- Ericsson Bluetooth stereo headset HBH-DS205 (http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/products/accessories/seetheaccessory/hbh-ds205?c c=us&lc=en) which works good as well for calls. I have experienced no distortion or static as I read in the forums other headsets do. And the great of this headset is that I can use any standard stereo headset I want. The downside is that it does not support multipoint (connect with multiple devices) so I have to un-pair it from the BT8IP and pair it with my iPhone 3g, if I want to use for calls.

Bluetooth A2DP profile for Tiger?

I am looking to get a wireless headset to game with for my MacBook Pro - with Bluetooth built in, I figure this is the way to go.
My research so far has shown that bluetooth stereo headsets with microphones are available, but they require the A2DP Bluetooth protocol. Most sites mention OS X doens't support it, but they are also backdated several months.
Can anyone confirm if the latest version of Tiger supports A2DP, and / or if support for it will be included in future releases or updates of OS X?
Thank you!
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Joseph, thanks for the post. I'm a Joseph too, must have been fate I found your post. I was very stoked about the iTouch being able to use for Skype. Skype has a section at their site about how it's doable. I have the 3.0 ver on my Touch. I just tried to pair my jawbone to the touch, but no luck. yet, I was at the Apple store yesterday and in a group, including staff, discussing using Skype on the Touch. The staff was telling us the Jawbone & their $79 Platronics would work. I already have a jawbone for my cell phone, but the Touch, when Bluetooth is on, doesn't even find the jawbone device. So, I'm not sure what's next. I'll try the headset you noted.
Thanks for your post.

Can MacBook Pro (Aug 2007) with Snow Leopard support A2DP headsets?

Hi I have a MacBook Pro (Generation 3,1) bought in August 2007 (hence NOT Late 2007 model) and currently running Snow Leopard. I'm interested in getting myself a Logitech Bluetooth Wireless Headset, but it only supports devices with A2DP Bluetooth profile, namely recent iPhones, iPads and iPod touches.
I was wondering if it could also work with my MacBook Pro in its current state and configuration? Many thanks if anyone could help.

Bluetooth A2DP on T60 with XP

I have an IBM T60 with Windows XP and all of the updates installed.
I purchased a Motorola S9 Bluetooth Stereo headset which works great with my cell phone, but I cannot get Windows to see that it exists.
I have installed the latest Bluetooth drivers from the IBM Support web site, from the IBM support site
Microsoft Bluetooth Support file for Bluetooth with Enhanced Data Rate -> http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-62928.html. After the install, I still can't see the S9 headset.
I tried to download and install the Widecom Bluetooth drivers and each time I try to install it, the install fails.
Anyone know how to get A2DP support on the T60?
Thank you
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Ok. Of course it always works this way....I spend hours, days, and weeks trying to get this to work...then within minutes after I post the question I figure it out...sigh....
the problem was, the S9 wasn't staying in pairing/discovery mode because my phone was on and it was connecting to the phone. So by the time Windows would try to find it, the S9 was out of Pairing mode.
The solution
1. The download from the Lenovo site worked to update to the Enhanced data Rate
2. You need to have all other devices that the S9 would pair with turned off so the S9 stays in pairing mode while Windows is looking for it.
Hope this helps others....

Bluetooth A2DP and Speakable Items

I would like to get a bluetooth headset for my phone, but it would be nice if I could use it for speakable items as well. In Tiger, I remember that headsets were not supported by speakable items due to their low sound quality.
Since Leopard now supports the A2DP profile, it is possible to use those headsets with speakable items?
Also, does anyone happen to know if the headset can be paired with my phone and my Mac at the same time?

I had a similar experience with the Motorokr S9-HD and found at least a workaround. It seemed when I connected to non A2DP headset, whether it was used or not, the S9-HD could no longer control the playback. If I shut down the iPhone and the headsets and then restarted the iPhone and the S9-HD but not the other non A2DP headset it would again control the play function.
I had the same problem with the 3G but on the 3G the skip and replay/back functions worked with the S9-HD but these functions do not work on the 3GS.
I have also noticed that the audio stream cuts out and I believe this is caused when my exchange server is doing a push - with push disabled I do not have the problem.
Hope this helps and hopefully Apple will get these issues fixed ASAP.

Bluetooth stereo headsets for E61i?

As E61i does not support A2DP there are no Nokia bluetooth stereo headsets available. But are they totally incompatible or just working mono then? Asking because my notebook supports A2DP and I just need ONE headset for both...

Hi,
I think that the adapters are the same. You just need to check that both support stereo sound and look about the same.
And of course, you can always go to a shop and test them. (Which is probably best in any case, since what might be the best for someone might not be best for everyone else.)

About Bluetooth A2DP

Is there this option (Bluetooth A2DP) in N95-1?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

what exactly are you asking? if you asking "if it can be turned on or off?" then the answer is "no." a2dp is already installed on the n95. for it to work all you need to do is pair the headset with the phone, and when you start playing music it will begin streaming to the headset immediately. there is no "on" or "off" option.
everything happens for a reason

Pairing bluetooth stereo headset

My JayBird JF3 Freedom stereo headphones won't pair with my MBP (but work fine with my iPhone & iPad). With the JF3's in "discoverable" mode and running the BT "Set Up New Device" wizard, my MBP searches endlessly (also seeing iOS devices w/o problem) but never sees the device. After searching related threads, it's apparently a fairly common problem. Unfortunately, the threads seemed to indicate the devices were at least able to see each other but, only when selected, wouldn't successfully pair. Since my device doesn't come up listed, I'm unable to attempt the suggested solutions from past posts. Also, the most relevant thread I found was from 2011, so I'm wondering if OS X 10.8.2 has possibly addressed the issue and I've overlooked something. Suggestions/advice?

As the current Apple Mac OS X does not support stereo music over Bluetooth (A2DP profile missing) and if this headset does not come with a USB Audio adapter, then you are wasting money.

Apt-x Support for Bluetooth A2DP?

Hi,
are there any plans to support the apt-X codec for the Bluetooth A2DP Profile? Maybe that could solve some of the bad A2DP audio qualitiy issues, that are still expierienced by some users (including me) on all the available phones (tested Pre- with 1.4.5, Pre+ with 1.4.5 and 2.1, Pixi Plus with 1.4.5, Pre2 with 2.0 and 2.1, all gave the same issues with different headsets and receivers!).
apt-X seems to be coming quite fast, not only because apple has built in support for it in it's latest products, but also because it offers CD level quality on low encoding cost, which is MUCH more than the poor SBC codec can deliver.
I hope HP with it's Beat audio line of products will consider adding such enhanced A2DP codecs to the mobile devices... wireless headsets are so much more convinient than anything wired can be. But at the momen A2DP sound quality is unbearable with my Palm handsets and I still have no clue where that issue arises from (my last guess is, that it's connected to me being an european costumer and we are few compared to the majority of the us costumers. As far as I understood there are differences in the radio part of the handsets between EU and US devices, so maybe those differences break A2DP Bluetooth quality).
Post relates to: Pre Plus p100ueu (Vodafone)

Thanks for all of the replies. I also saw in the Z white paper that the apt-X codec is not listed, so the question becomes "can apt-X be pushed via a software update?"
For those interested in streaming to your home stereo or powered speaker, here's what I ended up doing.
Purchased a Rocketfish Bluetooth Music Receiver from Best Buy (in the US). It is a pretty slick lttle device, about the same size as the power plug adaptor and it supports A2DP and apt-X. There are two audio outputs: analog via a headphone jack and optical. And it ships with a 6' 3.5mm stereo audio cable and a RCA adaptor.
Setup was easy. Connect the audio to the stereo's AUX inputs, set the stereo's source to AUX, plug in the BT receiver power, turn on the tablet Bluetooth on the tablet and play music.
At first the sound was pretty compressed from MP3's, Pandora and the Google Play service.The fix was to go into the Google Play app > settings > equalizer. Click on "surround sound" and change the setting from "headphone" to "studio".Then play with the equalizer settings to tweak.Results in much improved audio.
Happy camper now... music streaming through the house and no wires!

MBA support bluetooth stereo headset?

Has anyone tried and used a bluetooth stereo headset with the MBA? Does it even support it?

I just read the technical support that you reply to my question and I thank you a lot!!!
But I saw that my bluetooth stereo headset must be A2DP compatible to play and it is!!!!
*Bluetooth Stereo Headset SBH650*
*Technical Details*
- Weight: 17 g
- Size: 57 x 29 x 8,5 mm
- Talk/Listen Music: up to 8,5 hours
- Stand by: up to 170 hours
- Bluetooth Version: 2.0
- Headset-Jack: 3,5mm
- *Compatible to all mobile phones that support Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (Bluetooth A2DP)*
So I don't understand why there is a problem... I have tested my best's friend Stereo Bluetooth™ Headset HBH-DS980 (Sony Ericsson) that has too A2DP support and worked perfectly!!!
Can this be because the Samsung Accessory is a brand new product and not supported from the iPhone firmware?...
Thank you for your time!

No Sound Bluetooth Stereo Headset - MB Pro running Win XP SP3 via Bootcamp

I have a MacBook Pro Running Windows XP SP3 via Boot camp and I recently purchased a Rocketfish Bluetooth Stereo Headset. I am able to Pair the Headset to the MacBook Pro but I am unable to hear anything playing through them. I have checked to make sure that the volume is turned up. I think the problem might be driver related but, according to the Rocketfish support there isn't a specific driver for the headset. I'm not sure how to get the headset working. One other thing to note is that the headset works perfectly with my Iphone 4.
I guess my questions are...
How do I find an updated driver for the built in bluetooth on the MacBook Pro?
Does anyone know how to fix the problem that I am having?

So, finally I found what worked for me: Re: Full Bluetooth functionality in Bootcamp (audio, A2DP, FTP, OBEX) third variant, none of first 2 worked.. The only trouble was to find the correct link since on Acer site there is no download link. I've googled for "Bluetooth_Atheros_7.4.0.96_W7x64_A.zip" since this is the archive the guy is actually talking about. The 4th link on google was http://www.laptop-software.com/Acerdriversdownload.php?GDFiles/Driver/Bluetooth/ Bluetooth_Atheros_7.4.0.96_W7x64_A.zip?acerid=634556349384706773&Step1=Notebook& Step2=Aspire&Step3=Aspire%204830Z&OS=721&LC=en&BC=Acer&SC=PA_6 and I chose to downlad from the first download link. Then the steps are:
1) unzip the folder
2) don't look for x64 or x32, there is only a one installer called "Bluetooth_Suite_win7"
3) install Bluetooth_Suite_win7
4) after it installs Windows starts downloading and recognizing drivers, I don't know how it actually works, but it also downloaded and recognized the unrecognized before drivers for my Bluetooth headset.
5) Restart Windows
6) Turn on headphones - they connect automatically, everything works and works great, the quality of sound is exactly the same as it was on Mac OS, nothing that would bother me.
****, it took me 2 full days... finally...

Bluetooth - Connecting two devices at the same time on a Run (Bluetooth Mot headset

I would like to connect two Bluetooth devised at the same time on my runs. (Bluetooth Motorola headset (S10-HD) and Polars heart monitor (H7) at the same time) is that possible?

Thank you for the information. So if I were to return the new bluetooth keyboard, should I purchase the "Palm 3169WWZ Wireless Keyboard", or is there another model I should be looking for? (From what I can tell, I believe this one will use IR.)
THANKS!
Correct, that's the one I use.
Be sure to download the newest driver (1.13) for the keyboard from the Palm Support pages for the keyboard:
http://kb.palm.com/wps/portal/kb/na/keyboards/palmuniversalwirelesskeyboard/unlocked/downloads/page_...
Do not install the driver that comes with the device on the disk - 1.13 is designed for the TX and fixes a bug that existed in the original driver.
