Trying to connect HF800 to iPaq 6315.

This is my first attempt at connecting a bluetooth device to the 6315. I went settings-.connections->bluetooth->Bluetooth Manager. I selected new and then next, and the icon for HF800 shows up. When select that icon it tries to "discover" it, and askes for a passkey. Next I get an error message... "An error occurred while attempting service discovery...."

Has anyone got this unit to work with the 6315? Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,

Chris

No-way. I tried two brand new Logitech Mobile Freedom w/ my h6315 and the sound level (even at loudest settings at both the headset & my h6315) is barely enough for quiet indoor environment, and totally unusable in outdoor environment or even inside a restaurant. Moreover, there is static on my side for 100% of the time and my friends also noticed this 'breaking-up' sound of mine on their side. I now removed the foam on the Mobile Freedom & sound level improves a lil', but still too soft. And nope, I don't have hearing problems AFAIK.

So do you still think yours is loud & clear? If yes then I need to conclude that there is a problem w/ my h6315.

Thank you.

ipaq 6315 bluetooth did not readily work for me with Lexus LS-430 hands free bluetooth implementation. Appreciate any help on how to make this work.

I have had great success with the Stowaway Keyboard and the "microsoft" (pharos) gps receiver. I have had not so great luck with headsets; I have returned the moto 810 and 820 and a Belkin. None of them were loud enough, and all caused lockups.

I have recently purchased the Jabra BT250, but this time with a different attitude. I expect some problems, but it is better than tangling with the ipaq earbud wires. So far (after only two days) I have only needed to soft reset once, and the jabra seems to be much louder than my previous units. My 6315 is almost always on (it sits in the cradle on my desk during the work day) and I do not use the jabra at home at night (just during the day and in the car). Could my lack of lockups this time around be because the ipaq never goes into stand-by when I am using the jabra?

At any rate, I expect an HP/T-Mobile patch soon to address the headset issue, so I think I will keep the jabra even if I start to have more problems.


UPDATE: I read in the msmobile forum that another guy using the jabra BT250 (I can't remember his name, but he was a Microsoft MVP) stopped having problems when he deselected the system sounds option and only used his headset with phone calls. I did this yesterday and so far I've had no lockups or dropped connections. It makes voice command a little more difficult to use (can't hear the speaker very well) but it beats soft resetting 10 times a day!

Hello,

I am trying for the same to Lexus LS-430. Normal handsfree does not work even for Lexus. Did the pairing and all went well in the ipaq but the Lexus still waiting for the connection.

Do not understand the steps further from your post. Greatly appreciate any help.

thanks,

Sri

I have a new Acura TL with a Motarola V600; bluetooth works ok; can dial numbers and answer calls with voice prompts.

I am considering the 6315... I don't really understand some of the posts here. Would someone in the know mind restating what you have to do--sounds like its not really hands free locistically.

Can you sync Outlook/e-mail using bluetooth through the Acura TL?

thank you.

I couldn't see your notes on how to connect the BT200 to the 6315...

What I noticed is that the BT200 will pair with the 6315 only in "normal" mode and not in the enhanced / advanced "handsfree" mode.
Also - I need to re-pair the BT200 after each time I charge it...

Yeah, it doesn't use the handsfree profile... and the repairing after charging thing is typical for PPC phones, but not for "normal" cell phones like my Motorola v600. As soon as I turn it on it immediately pairs with my HS820 headset.

I have switched from the BT200 to the HS820 and am happy I did so. It seems to pair better and work normally with all of my cell phones w/BT (and the quirks with PPC phones being normal, but getting better as BT patches are being released.)

I've paired both a BT200 and BT250 with little difficulty. You are corrrect, the enhanced features cannot be used.

However, my Jabra's stay connected at all times; whether charging, or off the charger. The only thing that requires a "reconnection" is if I leave my desk with my Jabra on and walk out of range of the 6315.

When I get back I goto the iPAQ Wireless window and turn the Bluetooth off and back on. Then I'm reconnected.
