On my TP2, if a call is coming in and I have the bluetooth headset turned on, the headset will pick up the call only if I answer by pressing the headset answer button. If I answer by sliding the on-screen bar over the green "answer" button, the speaker in the phone itself comes on instead.
Is there a way to change this behavior such that the sound always comes through the headset if it is connected to the device, even if I answer on the phone itself?
I would be interested in this too, as I have a bluetooth car kit, if I accept the call from the car screen it is ok, if I accept it on the phone it routes through the phone.
I'm having a similar issue, but a little more complex it sounds like... When the phone rings and using my bluetooth headset (Jawbone2), I have to:
Press the answer button on the Jawbone2
Ringtone sound now comes through the headset
Remove phone from pocket and Slide2Answer with S2U2
Call is now connected through bluetooth
With my Kaiser, all I had to do was press the bluetooth answer button and the call would automatically pick up. No removing the phone, no pressing buttons or sliding to answer!
If I Slide2Answer on the phone when ringing without "transferring the call to bluetooth" first, the handset picks up the call. Useful in many cases, especially if I can't find the bluetooth after putting it down or in my jacket pocket for the time being. If I use the phone to make a call from the handset with bluetooth connected, it always transfers the sound directly to bluetooth. The problem lies with answering the phone with a bluetooth headset - the 4 steps above need to be completed instead of just #1 like it should be!
if you don't want it to go to the phone you need to answer with the device you want to talk with. thats how bluetooth on phones work, tp and tp2

I get that, If I try to answer the phone on the headset though, just the sound of the ringtone comes through the headset - the phone is still not answered, and is still ringing, just now in my ear! I STILL have to actually answer it via the phone's controls, which is pretty hard to do if you have your hands full........
For the OP Boo boo is correct. Answer the call on the device you want to use.
For Garcia25 the problem is S2U2. I ended up removing it and going back to the built in lock + LockDevice + built-in slide-to-answer.

This problem I am having seemed to start with WM5 AKU 2.3 and is still happening to me in WM6. If someone calls me, and I push the button on my bluetooth headset to answer, my ringtone plays for about a half a second to the person calling me. They usually complain about a loud noise when I answer the phone. I have discovered if I push the answer soft key on my phone instead, it doesn't play the ringtone, but it takes a little longer for my headset to pick up. This happened with my old headset (Plantronics Discovery 640) and my current headset (Jawbone). Has anyone else experienced this problem? If there was some way to adjust the delay for when the headset picks up, I think it would fix this problem because when pressing the key on the phone to answer there is a delay, but when pressing the button on the headset, there isn't.
Thanks...Brian
I am using an 8125 with Slide2Unlock and the Iphone dialer pad. Even with the standard dialer phone pad, if I want to stop using the headset during a call I must use the menu button at the bottom and select "Turn Hands-free off".. There are times that I do not want to use my BT headset or vehicle hands free unit. I would like to know if anyone had extracted that command and if it could be placed on the "in call" dialer skin as a hot button, like hold or mute, without having to go through the menu to access it. I don't need anything fancy that toggles the bluetooth on/off, in fact I would like to leave that unaffected. Simply a command that shortens the finger strokes of going through the in call menu and setting the handfree status.
Thanks in advance to brain tank.....
Does anybody have any ideas????? Please would really like an app like this....
Please Please...really want an app like this but I have no idea how to make one.
Thanks
have you tried holding down the green call button whilst in a call? Works on my SPV M1000 to turn speaker phone on....

Speaker phone is not my issue, I want to toggle between Headset and Handset while in a call. Like pressing menu/Handfree off.

I tested a today plug-in which did it, unfortunately I don't remember the name. AFAIK it is the only software capable of doing it while in a call, so.... hope you'll find it
I have the i-mate JASJAM (i.e. Hermes) which has A2DP. I bought the Jabra BT8010 stereo headset with headset profile and stereo profile. When I pair the two, every sound from the phone automatically gets transferred to the headset, which means the phone doesn't ring because the ringtone is also transferred. If I don't have the headset on I don't hear the phone ring.
I spoke to Jabra, they said I have to configure the phone somehow because the headset "just accepts whatever the phone sends".
Any ideas?
hey, same problem here
i have tried a few A2DP headsets(from other manufacturers)and with all of them the ring is streamed to the headset!
can any one help?
Are you kidding me? that's just one of the best things. How else do you know when you have a call when listening music? And why leave the headset paired when you don't use it? if you don't listen to music don't switch on the headset.
I don't always have my headset on my ear, I want the phone to ring. If the headset is disconnected, the phone doesn't always transfer an existing call to the headset if I turn on the headset only after the call has started.
So, I want to know if there is a way not to transfer the call ring (and all other device sound besides the call itself) to the headset...
hi Tsabar
Is the duration of your ringtone set to max?
My ameo rings over BT via my sony BT headphones and then rings half way thru via the phone's loud speaker

yeah, it just keeps ringing in the headset only
I would also like to know how to make the phone ring when the head set is plugged in.
I don't always have the headset in my ears but still want to hear the phone ring. There must be a setting to allow this somewhere.
Any ideas?
exact same problem here
using a htc mozart .. my bt head set picks up all sound, not only music and convo.. so i dont hear if someone calls me unless i wear my headset in my office at all times or turn it off with the need to turn it on (waiting forsync) whenever someone calls me...
thats absolutely stupid, who is the numbwit at Microsoft that got that idea?
actually the sounds (and lack of profiles realy need some work) im using this phone as a 3g business phone including mail, and evrything else..
now im also using the alarm feature but guess what you cannot make it "alarm only" you have to accept all the stupid notification sounds if you want to hear the sound of the alarm.. or like me disable the notifications from t.ex mails to avoi being woken up at night from that.. its so lame.
i can see that a low of features could be refactored on modern dauy phones.. but the win 7 mobile realy disnt do the job (yet).. i would rather wait for office support if i could have profiles..
another realy lousy thing is that you have to buy office 2010 including outlook to sync contacts ..older versions DONT work
I'm sorry if this has been asked in the past, but I was wondering what happens to your navigation screen when a phone call comes in or when you need to place a call? Now it would be nice not to be doing several things at one time, but if a call comes in while you are trying to navigate, doesn't the call menu come on screen? How do you suppress that? Just wondering as I am looking to get a TP2 via AT&T. Thanks.
Dunno about other kit, but my copy of TomTom6 produces a popup on my iPAQ hw6915, and all I hace to do is answer the call (I use a BT headset with it when driving to stay roadsade as much as possible). The voice directions from TomTom remain muted while the call is in progress, by the way.
hi
While using GPS (GARMIN XT), the phone screen appears in case of incoming call.
I always use my bluetooth earphones while using GPS.
GPS voice will be thru the speaker and call on bluetooth.
After the call, the screen turns back the the GPS view automatically.
Hi, I have a Bluetooth speaker on my visor, I pair it with my Z. When I am driving & select & dial a contact it goes via the Bluetooth speaker & I can hear them & I can talk to them. However when someone calls me when my Bluetooth is connected I can answer it via the phone or the Bluetooth Speaker but I then have to manually press the "speaker" icon (to the bottom right of the contact picture) & select the bluetooth device so people can hear me. Is there a way of defaulting the phone to "BT Speaker" (or any Bluetooth device) when the Bluetooth is connected? Thank you, I've searched but didn't come up with anything! http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=57383234
Not sure this helps
When I pair it with my bluetooth headset, I have to press the answer button on my bluetooth to hear sound or anything on my bluetooth headset
If I press the answer key on my phone, it would just work normal like it didn't connect to bluetooth( using the speaker on the phone)
So I guess if your bluetooth speaker has some kind of answer key, you would have to press it for it to using it by default

Ah yeah, I wondered that too as it was one of the first things I had a look for but it still comes through the phone until I manually "change" the speaker, it must be my bluetooth speaker that's causing it if what I'm trying to achieve works on yours. Thanks for your reply!
