My Jabra BT250 pairs successfully to my hp ipaq 6315 but I can not accept or make phone calls, nor do I hear any kind of audio on the jabra.
I noticed in the Jabra FreeSpeak 250 USER MANUAL that it states on page 12, item 3 that "...will work with devices that are compliant with Bluetooth version 1.1 oir higher...". My Ipaq says "Bluethooth for Windows CE BT-PPC/PE Version 1.0.0 Build 1400".
So, since the Ipaq is version 1.0.0 and the jabra 250 states 1.1 or higher, is this the reason I can't talk on the jabra?
Can I update my Bluetooth version on my Ipaq?
Many thanks,
Chad

I would guess there is an issue with your headset, since many users are using the BT250 with sucess.

Yes, that is the version I have. I talked to someone at Jabra last week. They said that we (the users and internet communities) need to pressure T-Mobile and HP to come out with an upgrade.
I have no problem pairing my BT200 with my 6315, but my unit routinely freezes when the bluetooth in on. I must soft reset 3-4 times a day.
Jabra BT250 success kind of, paired but after much experimental button pressing on the headset, what worked did not seem to be in the manual, Placed in the charger and held the on button down. This was after all the reset and pairing attempts in the manual had failed 20 times over or so.
The Jabra Headset has horrible directionality issues with the H6315 even close up. Will be returning it to Fry’s.
I happened to do a hard reset this morning. I was wearing the jabra headset just to see if I liked the feel and voila! all of a sudden I heard this beeping in my ear! It works. I've had to hard reset again to get it working again. We'll see...
I just got the HP BT foldable keyboard. I've had wired and IR keyboards on a succession of Palm devices and on the XDA, and the HP BT keyboard is the best I have ever used. The keys are full-sized and full-action, and they have the alt-key accented-character combinations printed on them. There's a numbers row. Although the space bar is split in two, there's only the slightest gap between the halves, so it feels like one continuous bar while touch-typing. BT is a real advantage: it lets you reposition the keyboard on a crowded table or use it when the iPaq is cradled.
Geez, I'm beginning to sound like an HP marketing guy, but seriously, I tend to be very cynical about PDA keyboards -- each tend to have a tragic flaw (small keys, awkward layout, no number or arrow keys, poor connectivity, sometimes all of the above) -- and this one manages to avoid all that.
I am planning to review quite a few Bluetooth devices including headsets. This is the first of quite a few. And frankly, I was surprised I liked it as much as I did. However, I know there will be far better headsets coming.
I just got the h6365 and the Jabra BT250 like some of you in this forum.
Similiar issues. Here's what I've encountered so far.
1. Screen locks out after a while.
2. Jabra 250 doesn't respond after a period of inactivity.
3. Worse, incoming calls doesn't reach the phone (ie. i don't hear/see any incoming), due to the OS hanging.
Go to Ipaq Wireless application.
Turn on Bluetooth if necessary.
Click on Manger.
Click on New, and add a shortcut for Activesync.
After that, you can just click on the shortcut from the Manager window.
It works like a charm for me. I don't cradle any more at all.

Here's what I've done. Removed additional apps like voice commander and calligrapher, was a little sad about having to remove voice commander as i liked the ability to dial while driving..
but it all added to preventing screen lock outs, the h6315 from "hanging" and more imptly, bluetooth from being unresponsive as a result. I'm half-wondering if the slower processor is part of the cause as well....
Bluetrek G2: Pairs great with it, seems to work fine, voice command dialing works ok.
Problem: No one can hear me! Unless I am absolutely shouting almost as loud as I can, nobody can hear me using this headset. This is no good as I prefer to have discreet conversations. I turned off agc and set the mic gain at 6, but no luck. Also the volume buttons take forever to go up\down (feels like you have to push them a dozen times to go up\down)
On the plus side I did get the stowaway to work with it, though I'm having difficulty adjusting my typing style to it.
Okay, I have tried both the Belkin and the Motorola 810 and ended up going with the Motorola. The Belkin worked quite nicely, actually, but it was the most uncomfortable thing I have ever used in my life! It wasn't just discomfort, it actually became painful if I left it in for more than 10 minutes or so. Due to the design of the Motorola the sound quality is not quite as good but it's extremely comfortable. I used each of them for about 4 days and both caused 2 lock-ups during that time period (fixed with a simple soft reset). I can't figure out a pattern with the Belkin but it seems that with the Motorola it only happened if I accidentally closed the boom before disconnecting (I think this was mentioned by a previous poster). There were NO lock-ups in the past 4 days if the boom was left open. I am thoroughly impressed with the Moto, to say the least!

I got the D-Link DBT-120 USB Bluetooth Adapter to pair as an active sinc connection and as a network (My Desktop Puter doesn't do bluetooth) heehhee ... now I can sync without the cradle or the cable ... next step ... figure out how to access the printer so I can print from the phone ... I'm guessing I need something like printboy ... any thoughts?
