HTC Desire :: Bluetooth Headset / Car Stereo
Jun 14, 2010
Hope someone on the forum can help, as I don't know anything about the possibilities with bluetooth. I need some way of answering the phone while driving. Existing car stereo has external jack input, so I use the Desire as my sat nav / ipod, plugging it into the stereo via two 3.5mm jacks. Thinking of buying a bluetooth headset to let me answer phonecalls. My question is, would this work with the above set up? Or would it try and send the output via the "headphones" jack to the car stereo? Car stereo does not have bluetooth. Just the aux input from the phone (sat nav / music). I don't want the music / sat nav to play into my ear, just phonecalls. I know this is expecting a lot - but is it possible to do?

I recently aquired a HTC Desire froom T-Mobile UK and one of the first things i did was to pair the headset with phone. All went well up to the point of using it to liten to music and video(a2dp), alas that did not work.
Making phone calls work, and strangely enough controling playback of media via the headset (avrcp), but no other audio routed through the headset. I tried a second a2dp headset and it was the same issue. They work perfectly on my other phones for years, the Desire is the first to have this problem.
- So could it be T-Mobile or HTC forgot/screwed-up the a2dp profile?
- Do i have a faulty handset? everything works well.
- Am I doing something wrong somewhere? I went throught the user guide a few times just to be sure.

I have a problem with audio through my bluetooth stereo headset. I have an old Logitech FreePulse Wireless that I use and have tested it with my old samsung p2 mp3 player, no problems there. I also dont have a problem using a bluetooth earpiece for calls. However, I can't get any sound through the headset. It connects fine, shows "media playing through bluetooth" or whatever it says when I change the volume, yet nothing but silence comes out. Also I am on leaked 2.2, dont know if it worked on 2.1 because I never tried.

Amazon.com: Samsung Bluetooth Headset WEP870: Cell Phones & Service. Just wanted to share this, I know it was covered in another thread but its a pretty good deal and worth sharing. They are $10 bucks after the rebate and actually work quite well.

1. Will a stereo Bluetooth headset work for listening to Pandora on the Eris? I ask because I saw one thread in which somebody said "No Bluetooth for anything other than telephone sound" on the Eris.
2. If it will work, any recommendations such a headset? I'm no audiophile, so my main issues would be comfort and battery life.

I just purchased a new bluetooth car stereo (Pioneer DEH-6250BT) The HTC bluetooth works fine but it doesn't accept my HTC Desire via USB as it looks like it only accepts iphones. Saying that i can play music from my USB stick no problem. Is there anyway i can get around this problem without buying an ipod for music?

My car stereo packed in this morning, so looking to replace it. I saw a youtube video that showed someone playing videos/music on their desire and the sound coming through the car stereo via bluetooth
Does anyone do this? does it work ok? and do i need anything specific or any stereo with bluetooth will work?
Having come from a N97 the one feature i REALLY miss is the FM transmitter, was brilliant, i guess i'm trying to recreate it via BT.

I can't get my Nokia BH-214 Bluetooth Stereo headset to work with my HTC Desire.I have previously had it working fine with the stock HTC sense & the LeeDroid ROM. I have recently loaded the DeFRost 4.6 ROM.I can get it to pair OK and it appears in the 'Bluetooth Devices' list as 'Paired but not connected', when I try to connect I get a 'Cannot establish communication with Nokia BH-214' error.I am guessing this ROM does not support the A2DP standard. Is there a workaround?

Been looking at some for few weeks now and wanted to see what people suggest for the Desire. Saw a Jabra one for around 25.00, Is there any that won't work with the phone at all?

On my winmo device, I was able to use my laptop as a bluetooth headset. Unfortunately my Desire does not not seem to recognize my laptop as having the functionality.

Have just purchased the Jabra Clipper to use with my Desire as it is deemed compatible. It paired instantly and the sound was awesome. However, it is diving me mad as the headset keeps loosing the signal, sometimes totally and it is supposed to have a 10m range. I look like a plum holding my phone in front of me I am sure it is not the headset.

Have tried to get to the bottom of the Desire's poor FM but am thinking of giving up and getting the Sony MW600's. Wondered if anyone has experience of these - mainly just want them for FM radio (Radio 2 in the main) in the UK.

Had TomTom on my old orbit2 (HTC Cruise) which i could stream to my motorbike bluetooth headset with an 'app' called BTaudio. Is there anything similar which will send the directions from google maps to a headset?

Not as obvious as you might think. Hubby is deaf on one side, and is looking for a music/phone bluetooth headset.
I don't really mean a headset, i guess i mean an ear piece.
Probably going to be used mostly for music, so good controls and sound quality is most important.

I need to use Bluetooth headset for FM radio when in the gym, but we all already know that you need to plug in wired headset to use as antenna.
Problem is, as soon as you plug in wired headset, music goes to the wired headset. You can only choose to route music to the speakers by default.
So, the question is, does anyone know how I can route FM radio music to the Bluetooth headset instead of to the speakers? I don't mind leaving the wires attached for use as antenna. This must be possible through some fix or 3rd party software that I am not aware about.

I've uncovered what could be a serious problem with the Desire. It's only affected me in one way so far, but who knows what other problems there are that I haven't found. I've noticed on several occasions that when listening to music via Bluetooth, my headphones disconnect for no apparent reason. However I've found a pattern now: if WiFi is turned on and I come within range of a /remembered/ hotspot, the WiFi connects and BOOM, disconnected from audio. I can reconnect straight away. There is another poster here (sorry, can't remember your name or the thread you posted in) describing another problem with WiFi and Bluetooth working - or conflicting! - together so I don't think I'm the only person suffering. Who else can reproduce it and how could I submit a bug report to HTC?

I've paired a Motorola HS820 with my Desire. It all seems to connect and will even dial from the phone if I hold the button down but it doesn't seem to pass the audio through to the headset.

I'm probably going to be picking up some BT headphones, mostly for at work. I don't really care if it does voice too, and I don't want to spend a ton of money. I saw these at Verizon, anyone use them? Enter your location (Motorokr S305) Any other recommendations? I want good sound quality and over the ear (not buds). Also, and this may be a really stupid question, but is there a way to tell if songs I bought from iTunes are protected before I move them over to my Droid, or is just a 'try to play it' thing?

I was cleaning all the crap off my phone I don't use anymore and I believe I accidently removed the bluetooth software that allows it to connect to stereo bluetooth headsets. I can control the player with the headset, I can make phone calls from it, but when I try to play music there is no sound.
I was trying to reset the phone using RUU, but it reboots the phone and then says it cannot reconnect after that and the software shuts down. I can still sync with outlook, so my driver is not the issue. I am out of ideas.
Is there anyway possible to reinstall just the bluetooth portion of the rom?

i was looking at some of these BT small stereos for use with our phones and and think how much nicer it would be to just use my pc as a Bluetooth stereo, i have a Bluetooth dongle for my PC and could like to know how i could go about doing this, id like to have it set up so i could just connect and play. i cant bring myself to buy another unit when i have a nice speaker set for my computer.

I am in celebration so I decided to share my technological milestone. I just had a bluetooth stereo installed in my car. I now play all my music from my Nexus one. I removed all my CDs and put them in storage. The hands free function is excellent! It works far better than my expensive phone system at work.
When I had a bluetooth ear piece it was a drag to use so I gave up. This is nothing like that. I would rather talk with the hands free through the stereo than talk directly on the phone. Music pauses when calls are made or received. Love this thing! Probably there are many people here who are rolling their eyes because they did this ages ago.
