Re: Bluetooth Problem in Car with New Rom

Sony XPlod BT Stereo FTW!

Supports high quality A2DP, can initiate connect without touching the phone (WM still doesn't do this to most headsets/receivers. This is one of the few exceptions that can initiate from the stereo), and is the easiest installation since everything is in the head unit.

Only problems- the mic is in the headunit, so you have to sort of yell at the dash board when making calls. Personally, I use it mostly for music and bring a headset when I'm planning an in-depth car call. Otherwise, the built-in BT is good enough for a surprise call.

Best part- the whole thing costs a bit over $100 (for the BT2500 model that I have) and took me about 20min to install myself.

By the way, we should be lucky it ever worked the way you wanted at all... my older GSM Nokia's had great music features, but would only connect to one "external audio" source at a time. So, as you're seeing here, when a headset or audio adapter was plugged in, BT was completly disabled. And when I had a bt headset on, no sound would come out of the adaptor. Sucks, but its a common flaw from manufacturers.
