Fm transmitter and bluetooth headset usage

This might have been asked before but I cannot find the answer. I am looking at buying an iphone 3g and the problem I have had with previous phones is when I am plugged into an fm transmitter an incoming phone call is routed through the headset jack making my bluetooth totally useless. if i use a transmitter made specificly for the iphone 3g with a dock connector when I get a phone call while using the ipod function can I simply answer the call with my bluetooth headset button or do I have to unplug the transmitter first? I am not looking for a speaker phone feature over my fm radio.

I called Griffin Technology and they said this feature is supportecd with the itrip auto and itrip autopilot.

  • IPhone 2.0 and Bluetooth Headset

    Does the new 2.0 upgrade work with or recognize the existing Bluetooth headset at all? I left my headset on the charger for a couple weeks, it says "paired" but im unable to connect, activate or make calls with Bluetooth headset. I read all the posts, but they are mostly relating to Bluetooth compatibility with various vehicles. I want regular connection to my phone. Its not happening. What gives?

    I found this answer on another discussion and it works!
    Go to Settings > General > Bluetooth > then touch the "iPhone Bluetooth Headset Paired" button.
    A menu will pop up. One of the choices is "Unpair." Touch "Unpair."
    When it unpairs, put your iPhone and headset back in the charger, where they will autopair again.

  • Mpd and bluetooth headset

    Anyone of you guys got mpd and bluetooth audio up and working? I cant seam to find any good info in the matter.

    I'm just guessing here, but maybe something along the lines of this in /etc/mpd.conf
    audio_output {
    type "alsa"
    name "My ALSA Device"
    device "hw:0,0"
    format "44100:16:2"
    Change the 'device' line to suit whatever numbers your bluetooth headset is...

  • Front Row and bluetooth headset

    Hi
    I'm using a bluetooth headset (no mic) and each time I enable it I don't have sound at all in front row. It works fine when I use this headset and run quicktime or itunes fron desktop but as soon as i switch to front row it stop working. Sometimes I may hear 1 or 2 sound effect when I scroll in the fron row menu but as soon as I try to play a movie or a music, I don't hear anything.
    Is there any tips to know to make them work together ?
    Tks,
    Xavier

    I have the exact same issue. I've filed a bug with apple, but no response. This is with the latest version of Leopard, on a Core 2 Duo Mac Mini

  • 6682 and bluetooth headset with no sound - Here's ...

    Hello,
    I had an 'no sound' issue with a 6682 and a Jabra BT250 bluetooth headset. I've had the phone for 2 months and used the BT250 with it every day.
    My problem started when I connected a POP connector and wired headset (not the standard Nokia version). From that point forward, when I connect my bluetooth headset all of the correct icons appear on the phone showing the BT headset is connected and the bluetooth connection is functioning, but the sound does not come out of the headset. It comes out of the handset (like a normal call) instead.
    I searched through the forum and found this procedure listed for the N70 and other headsets.
    - Take out the battery
    - Take out your sim
    - Leave it for at least 2 hours
    - Put another SIM into it
    I'm adding these steps
    - Turn on the phone
    - If prompted, enter the correct time and date
    - Pair the headset with the phone
    - The headset should now work correctly
    - Power down the phone and replace the borrowed SIM card with your own.
    - Pair the headset with the phone.
    - The bluetooth headset should now work correctly.
    This procedure correected my problem. A thorough cleaning of the connector contacts did not help.
    I hope this helps someone else.

    Did you ever figure out how to use the headset? I am having the same problem

  • Speaker and Bluetooth Headset Problem on Lenovo P70

    Hello All, I have purchased Lenovo P70 one month ago. This phone is pretty nice for day to day use. But I am facing some peculiar problem as follows: While using any VOIP application like Skype, Viber, Whatsapp, imo (or whatever); if i try to go from earphone to speaker or bluetooth headset mode, I can't hear any sound. The sound nither plays on earphone or on the speaker or bluetooth headset. Even the other party can't here. Even my cheaper Lenovo A329 has no problem doing so. I'm sure this is a software glitch which needs to be fixed. For your information, my build number is P70-A_S129_150320_16g_ROW Kindly let me know if there's any solution.

    Hey JameZ, Thanks for your reply. To be honest with you, I haven't tried the headset which came in box. but surely the speaker mode dosen't work properly in any VOIP application. the sound hangs for about 30-40 seconds and even after the sound comes, it goes again. As for BT headset, kindly see the screenshot below to get better idea. Since the BT headset works fine in normal calls, I'm pretty sure, the problem lies in the OS.  If you have the device around, I would urge you to check for yourself for the problem. I have tried the similar things with my friends P70, the problem remains same. Kindly do the needful

  • N82 WLAN and Bluetooth Headset

    Hi Guys,
    I have two problems:
    1. I have a Nokia Bluetooth headset HS-36W and my Nokia N82 does not seem to detect it. However, my Nokia 7610 was able to detect it and I was able to use the headset. Is HS-36W not compatible with Nokia N82?
    2. I tried using WLAN but was a failure. The connection was open so NO user ID or passwords were required. Error was WEB: NO GATEWAY REPLY. Others using a laptop was able to access the network. Is there any problem or is there something required from me to do?
    Appreciate your advice.
    Many thanks!
    SW: 20.0.062

    Check your positioning settings first: what is your access point there, and what is your positioning server address? The access point should be a GPRS access point, defined by your service provider. Write down your default positioning server address and replace it with supl.nokia.com that usually works well. If it won't, you can always return back to your default server. Usually the server is automatically correct on N82.
    You can't use WLAN connection for the Assisted GPS and most likely also WAP is out of the question. You'll need to use a GPRS connection in order to get the current satellite status without waiting outside for several minutes. If you don't have a GPRS data subscription, you're out of luck. Contact your service provider for this.

  • Nokia Maps and Bluetooth Headset

    Whenever I have my bluetooth headset connected and I'm using Nokia Maps (2 or 3) the volume for navigation keeps switching itself off.
    It's not the volume on the headset as this works fine and I can make calls without the volume dropping.
    I turned the volume up on my N96 and the next time I get voice directions by NM the sounds drops away again, pretty annoying.
    I've re-installed NM maps a few times including the sound files just in case that was the problem and I now that I've moved to NM3 I was hoping the problem might have gone away....it hasn't.
    Does this happen to anyone else? Anyone got a fix?
    Oh and does anyone else think the Female (UK) voice in NM3 sounds fed up when giving directions?

    Hi,
    I seem te have the same problem with N82 connecting to standard bleutooth peugeot carkit.
    I raised a call with nokia buth they seem to not want to support because of third party. I hooked up an HTC S740 from my buddy this one works like a charm.
    Looks like nokia is going into headset modes, see headset icon. Then all sound should go to headset. However my carkit supports also handsfree and it seems like the connection with my nokia keeps ending up in headset!
    nokia please help, this has nothing to do with the carkit!
    Kind regards Christian 

  • 6210 and Bluetooth headset problems

    Hi,
    I have 6210 Navigator with SW version 4.13.
    When I use Bluetooth headset (BH-602 or BH-604), the connection works just fine for the first time.
    But if I turn off the Bluetooth headset and for example turn it on again next day (without turning off the phone in between), the connection between the phone and headset just does not work anymore.
    I have noticed, that I have to go to the phones Bluetooth menu, turn the bluetooth OFF and then back ON. After these steps when the headset is turned on again the connection between headset and phone works.
    This is rather annoying "feature" in the 6210 Navigator and I would like to ask what could be the problem ?

    Hi Chris,
    It would appear that a later firmware at V 4.0623 would increase stability in long running bluetooth connections.
    I'm not sure if this will apply to you, as I don't have the same problem to confirm that it's fixed. But I would think it'll be a good try to get the firmware updated.
    Let us know.
    Cheers. ^_^;

  • New iOS 7 and Bluetooth Headsets

    Hi,
    I intaslled the new iOS 7 on my iPhone 4S last night and today none of the button functions on my bluetooth headset (pause, next track, last track, random play, etc.) are working.  They worked under iOS 6 no problem - Any ideas why they aren't working now?  How do I get them back?
    The headset pairs okay and I hear the music through the earpieces though I now only seem to be able to control the music directly from the music app screen - which is not convenient to use whilst I am riding my motorcycle.
    Many Thanks.

    Hi there,
    Have you tried deleting your headset from the list of devices? Go to Settings>Bluetooth>(your headset name)> the information "i">forget this device. Then re-pair. This worked for my Jaybird BluebudX headset. Annoyingly the battery health meter for the headset's battery does not show with IOS 7.
    Good luck!

  • OS X 10.4, A2DP and bluetooth headsets

    Hi all,
    I have recently acquired a Belkin F8T012xx1 Bluetooth dongle, since I was attracted by the advertised RX/TX range of the product, and since most of my experience over the last 15 years has been on Linux/BSD, had not realised that OS X had issues with Bluetooth and headsets.
    Also, the product was emphatically (and, as it turns out, mistakenly) advertised as working with OS X 10.4 and headsets using native drivers.
    However, to cut a long story short, the product does not do so. However, after much back-and-forth correspondence with Belkin, it seems that the dongle will work with Leopard.
    However, since I already have self-built utilities coping with the more important new features of Leopard, I don't really want to go through the rigmarole of upgrading from Tiger to Leopard on this old iBook.
    Does Apple have any intention of backporting A2DP from 10.5 to 10.4? And if so, when?
    I have tried using the version at SkyHorse.org, but couldn't get it to work.
    TIA
    Mudge

    Seems like this is a popular problem. Not sure why apple didn't have this function pre-installed on 10.4 tiger. In a nutshell download softick audio gateway software. here is the link http://www.softick.com/macosx/audio-gateway/index.php?page=7&new_lang=en
    After downloading the small file I was able to listen to stereo bluetooth on my macbook pro. The cost is $20 but there is a trial download. I'm using motorola s9 headphones.

    Hello Joolader. Posted below is an Article that seems based on what it is your doing. I have also posted a couple other articles along with Damon's, As well as some additional troubleshooting steps.
    iPhone and iPhone Bluetooth Headset: About auto-pairing http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305665
    iPhone Bluetooth Headset troubleshooting http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305777
    How to pair iPhone Bluetooth Headset http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305664
    Additional Troubleshooting.
    1. Turn iPhone off then back on. Simply hold down the Sleep/Wake button and slide to power off, When the screen turns dark. Press the Sleep/Wake Button for 3 seconds till you see an Apple Logo. Once the iPhone boots backup, Now try Bluetooth again.
    2. Reboot the iPhone. Press Sleep/Wake and Home button together, Let go once you see Apple Logo. iPhone will Reboot and come back, Now test Bluetooth
    3.Go to Settings- Toggle Airport Mode on, Then Off, Retest Bluetooth
    4.Go to Settings- General-Reset-Reset Network Settings, Retest Bluetooth
    5. Now that we covered all the basic settings without touching data. If you still can not get Bluetooth to work try the last couple steps.
    6. Find another Bluetooth headset see if the iPhone sees it.
    7.Backup your Data, Restore iPhone, Test Bluetooth
    If this all fails. Take your iPhone and Bluetooth headset to an Apple Retail store, Where they can attempt a couple more last min troubleshooting steps on iPhone.
    If another Bluetooth works with your iPhone then you had a Bluetooth headset issue. But taking your Bluetooth headset into Apple Retail will allow them to test it on other iPhones to rule out an issue with your hardware.
    Please book an appointment at your local store before going in.

  • Is there an issue with IOS8 and bluetooth connectivity?

    I have downloaded IOS8 on my iPhone 5S & 4S, and now am not able to use the bluetooth phone connection in my auto.
    Anyone experiencing this same situation?

    Does Apple respond to the Support Forum posts?
    Is there a pending solution, and what is the timeline?  Should I be raising my issues with Acura or Plantronics?  I have read that RESET of the phone is a temporary solution.  I am not going to reset my phone on a daily basis.  The whole reason for iCloud backups is so I don't have to start over with each new device. 
    I have a business trip this week, and I use my car bluetooth and bluetooth headset heavily.  Today I convinced a Best Buy Geek Squad employee to perform a little experiment with my iPhone 6 and iOS8.0.2.  We did not try the Plantronic Voyager Legend, because it is my current headset, and does not work.  We tried the Bose Series 2 (clearly price does not help compatibility), which did not work.  We also tried a Jawbone Era and a $29 something, all without success. 
    8.0.2 worked until my phone battery died on Saturday. 
    Even if there are a variety of industry standards for Bluetooth technology, it is unreasonable that Apple excludes such a large percentage of the users market.  I know Apple likes a good secret, but could they share enough information with the accessory market? 
    Why doesn't Apple aim to provide the world most stable operating system, instead of the most changing?  I am all for change and innovation.  I will even continue to pre-order the latest and greatest Apple product.  But change without function or at a loss of function is ridiculous.  I had this same experience with the iOS 7 release.  I am sure that most of my issues will be resolved by Thanksgiving.  Why not rewrite operating systems on a two year cycle, so you can actually test it first?  I would appreciate if Apple stopped testing their products on the customers that are the most supportive.
    PS This is not the only issue I have found (horizontal keyboard, apps sticking, etc, etc)  This is just the issue that is effecting me most directly today.  Apple you reputation is suffering.  I think I just heard Steve Jobs turn over. 

  • When archlinux finally will support bluetooth headsets?

    Today after upgrading to the new bluez libs i hoped all evil problems with arch and bluetooth headsets should be gone over. But i was wrong.
    I love arch but the only thing i can't set is my own bluetooth headset. It works perfectly on ubuntu following this guide -> http://gablog.eu/online/node/80
    On arch i can't apply this guide because snd-bt-sco module doesn't exist (while sco does).
    Then now, with new bluez, i noted that the gnome-bluetooth-icon doesn't appear any more.

    damjan wrote:*YOU* *DONT* *NEED* snd-bt-sco
    regulary not, that's right; but the problem is, otherwise it will *NOT* work;
    and "File a bug report" would not solve anything, as long as i don't know, if it is even a bug;
    the point is, that before this f***ing "bluez" think came, my bluetooth headset worked like a charm, but since then i'm trying maybe twice a year to get it work, unsuccessful till now.
    maybe snd-bt-sco was never included in the mainline, but it worked without any complications.
    and the documentation for bluez is as useful as the "File a bug report" quote.
    reminds me kinda "pulse-audio", which is also an absolutely pain, if you're not on gnome/kde or ubuntu;
    i've tried another time today and after 5 hours of work i'll put my bluetooth headset back into it's box and stay waiting;
