Anyone else noticing Bluetooth Static?
 
Hello,

I've used the same headset for both my mogul and my Touch - not static issues - unless of course I have something on top of my phone or it is in my pocket or too far away. My Diamond seems to be causing a lot of static on the BT headset. I am familar with making sure the phone and the headset are reasonably far apart when initially setting the two up. I haven't tried forcing a channel change yet. I'll first remove it and re add it to my phone but this is a new HTC BT issue. On the plus side confirmation for voice command seems fine!

Just curious if anyone else is experience an issue with their headset that they didn't have with their previous Touch or Mogul?

I know I noticed the mogul BT issues the day I got my mogul and it took them about 5 months to get a working firmware update to resolve the issue. (for anyone that didn't have the mogul the initial firmware caused issues on BT for people you were calling - they sounded fine on the mogul but you sounded like crap to them if you were calling on BT from a mogul) I'm not declaring this an official issue yet as I'm waiting for feedback.

Yes, actually, with a Jabra. I noticed that there was more interference when I do not have a clear line of sight to the device...

I thought maybe it was just me...

Good to know - we'll see how many of these we get and if necessary - I'll start my campaign again with Sprint and HTC like I did with the mogul.

Did you ever have any luck with the Mogul? My PPC-6800's BT hasn't worked well since I switched from WM 5 to WM 6 and 6.1.

BT was fixed on the Mogul about 5 months after it was first sold by Sprint.

I have a motorola S9 stereo bluetooth headset, and it coming from the touch to the diamond, it is choppy and will not hardly play unless it is within 6 inches. Before, with the touch I could actually put the phone in my pocket with no problem. What gives?

I always had static on my Mogul, I thought that that was normal.

I'm not sure how this keeps getting by SPrint's testing - you think they would have learned after the mogul fiasco.

Diamond BT hands-free is unusable with my Nissan Altima. Lots of static and other party cannot hear me. Car works just great with three other phones including my 6700. This is a show stopper!

The Diamond hands-free does work great with my Plantronics V510 headset and AT&T house phone with BT.

I have an 08 Altima w/nav and I sorry to report that Microsoft, HTC, and Nissan have managed to continue to propagate this sorry excuse for a "feature"!

This phone is going back to Sprint!

As it turns out, this has been a known issue discussed since last Nov. in the XDA with no resolution except downgrade to WM5 which isnt a solution for the Diamond.

The new Sprint Diamond Touch has this same unusable BT connect to my car :D . My 6700 with BigJ worked perfectly as well as the wife's Kantana and Kantana II.

Considering how the switching the headset back seems to fix it with hassle, I am wondering if the problem might be the new BT profiles being added in the new WM6 software and is confusing the car BT when it auto-connects. Sounds like it maybe trying to use the A2DP profile instead of the HFP profile. Perhaps someone can play with disabling all but HFP.

No BT problems for me. No static on my end and no complaints from callers. I have a Plantronics 510.
