A2DP/Stereo Bluetooth issues

[korzmi]

I'm trying to use the Jabra SP700 Bluetooth speakerphone with my Sprint Touch Pro. They pair up each time without problem and I get both the headset and stereo Bluetooth icons (I posted a screen capture). Even though telephone audio works every time, the stereo audio only works about 1/10 times. I've tried turning the phone, SP700, and the Bluetooth on and off in different orders without any success. I tried clicking "Set as Wireless Stereo" in Comm Manager, but again that only works about 1/10 times. I also installed a bunch of the Bluetooth and audio tweaks listed in other threads with no change. I thought maybe the SP700 was to blame, but I paired it with my laptop and I was able to play headset and stereo audio without problem. I'm stumped so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Just got the SP700 as well and I have the same issues with a Sprint Diamond.

I have not come up with any solutions so far but any help is appreciated.

this might work, hightlight the Jabra SP700 in the bluetooth options menu, and hold the stylus down, and when the drop down box shows up select set as wireless stereo... see attachment

Still doesn't work. I tried a Moto Q and it works perfectly.

I'm thinking it's the Diamond/Touch Pro.

Rydah - I tried assigning it as Stereo Bluetooth, but that works intermittently at best (1-2 of every 10 times). After asking a bunch of people for help, somebody finally pointed me to this program:

It gets the stereo Bluetooth audio to switch to my SP700 on the first try about 90% of the time, so that's obviously a big improvement. If you do install the program, just be aware that it doesn't actually display anything when you click/run it. The only way I know it works is hearing a confirmation beep and then (obviously) the music.

Just like everyone else, I still have to ask HTC, "Why the f should I have to download an additional program?" -and- I'm still up for any other solutions/suggestions people have!

I got a cheap insignia one, and it works fine on my touch pro, perhaps jabra and htc are not compatible?

Yea I returned mine and will try the Motorola t505.

I have the exact same problem with my Jabra SP700 and Sprint HTC Touch Pro. I've found not consistent way to get the connection to work. I will try the suggested download. One would hope it would just connect...

I have the same problem with a headset I got from ebay:

It works awesome when I first pair it, including the AVRCP (allows you to skip songs using the controls on the earpiece). But it doesn't pair again after that. I end up deleting the profile and then pairing it again. I was going to return it, but it sounds like it might be the device after reading this thread. A dongle program is NOT a good way to go, since it just relays the audio through the hands free profile. You can see the icon at the top of the screen and it is supposed to use audio through the wireless stereo profile, not the hand free profile. I presume this would also not take advantage of the AVRCP profile.

Any ideas? Please help!

Has anyone found a solution for this? I just purchased this unit on Buy.com for $39.00 so I thought I would give it a try again.

I have upgraded my Touch Pro to WM 6.5 by Mighty Mike and have the same connection problems. I have upgraded the firmware on the Jabra to the latest version and Jabra's web site says it works but I get the same results.

Here is the thread I started a while back.
