Bluetoth Toggle with user Settings? - HD2 General

Hi,
it's easy to find a bluetooth toggle button out there to put it on the HD2 homescreen - neverthelees it only turns bluetooth on (or off). Normally I use only one bluetooth connection - my stereo headset. Is there anything I can do that the toggle button not only turns on the bluetooth but uses my headset as standard connection, so automatically connects to it with some settings?
Thanks,
DW!

Nobody?

If you are having an issue with the headset only connecting as handsfree when you turn bluetooth on there is an option in the settings to have stereo headsets connect to both handsfree and headset at the same time ...
It would be in the bluetooth settings under that devices main properties ...
I use one and it connects to both when toggling bluetooth on or off ...
But even without that all you have to do normally is hit a "media" button on the headset , something other than talk/play or volume, and it should connect ...
Hope that confusing mess helps ....

Bluetooth headphones auto-pair?

Hi folks
I've got my self a pair of HP Bluetooth headphones (very nice btw!) but every time I want to use them, I have to turn on bluetooth, go into bluetooth devices, press and hold the bluetooth headphones and select "set as wireless stereo".
My question is, is there anyway of getting my phone to automatically pair with my bluetooth headphones? Rather than having to go into the bluetooth settings everytime?
Or even put a shortcut on the today page would be easier enough?
Thanks
I was having the same question, but people sais that it is not a good idea to keep your device recoverable from other devices all the time from security point of view. So, i refused from this idea

I found out that if you create a shortcut (.lnk) with notepad and put this in it:
23#ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,23,1
You can get right to the bluetooth devices screen. I haven't seen how to pair something automatically though. hopefully one of the bluetooth guru's here can figure that out.
Thanks Jizzay1
Start -> link -> Tap+hold -> connected
Alot better than comms manager -> bluetooth settings -> devices -> tap+hold -> connected
Maybe someone will find a way to press a link and connect straight away, but this way I can live with in the mean time
Obviously different to bluetooth headsets. I use a Nokia HDW-3 and it connects everytime, my bluetooth is not set to discoverable either
I'm not sure why you guys have to re-pair your headsets. I never have. If bluetooth and the headset are on then I can make calls through it.

I'm having this problem with my STEREO BT headset, and it sounds like mixmasterollie is too, but it seems like the people that don't have this problem are using normal mono headsets. Please correct me if i'm wrong.
I'll have a mono headset to test tomorrow to see if my 8125 will pair with it automatically.
As iunderstood for the phone calls my STEREO headset is pairing automatically, but not for music

I just tried my friend's over the ear plantronics 510 mono headset and it pairs automatically once i turned on bluetooth on my phone and on the headset. My 8125 doesn't say anything on the screen once it's been paired, but it works.
Sounds like i just have to live with manually pairing my IOGEAR stereo headset.
Try playing with the "action" button on the headset. On mine, the volume up button has a dot on it. I turn on the BT, turn on the headset, wait a couple seconds and hit the volume up button twice. It automatically goes into wireless stereo when I do that. Boy, was I happy when I discovered that!
No such luck I'm afraid, my HP BT Headphones don't auto-pair, no matter what buttons I press on the headset
I think wireless stereo and hands free act differently, whereas the hands free ones connect automatically but the headphones only option doesn't.
Shame really!

Shortcut to start up the wireless stereo

Hi! I need an help from you! Do you Know a tricks, shortcut or software that directly start up the bluetooth earphone like wireless stereo device? I each time would like play music via bluetooth must activate the bluetooth, go to comm manager, bluetooth settings, device, tap&hold on the device and tap setup wireless stereo!
Tnx
Stefano
isnt there anyone?
Well on my BlueAnt X5 buletooth stereo headset I just turn on the head set and then press the power button again and it automatically connects straight up. Maybe u have a connect button somewhere on your headset too.
Of course this is after setting up the pairing when I first bought it... and with bluetooth swithed on.

bluetooth stereo - partnership

When i pair my phone to my bluetooth car radio i get handsfree and bluetooth stereo working. when i turn off the radio and put it back on, the handsfree function is still available but no more bluetooth stereo.... si when i want to listen to my mp3's on the phone, i have to pair it each time again.
i work with the standard shipped rom and i got the options in the comm manager set to "handsfree" and "bluetooth stereo"
any help would be appreciated!
Ok, found the solution....
it seems if you go to bluetooth settings, press long on the paired device, it brings up a menu where you can "set as wireless stereo". in that way it stays as handsfree and wireless stereo!

Problem with Bluetooth Headset

Hi, i just bought a universal bluetooth headset but i cannot set up my phone to work with it. I turned my bluetooth function on and set my phone visible but i still cannot find the bluetooth headset. Does anyone know why?
You don't want the bluetooth headset to see the phone... you want the phone to see the headset... Setting the phone to visible is for other phones/computers to be able to see it...
By default, all you should need to do is...
1. Have your bluetooth set to "on" on your phone
2. Turn on the BT headset
3. Add new device
4. See headset and tap on it and then next
5. Pair it with 0000 or 1234
6. It should set it to heaset automatically
Sometimes just having the bluetooth headset on is not enough, you have to put it in discovery mode. (The headset manual should say how to do this)

[Q] How to disable automatic start of music when connected to BT

Everytime My Galaxy S5 (G900F) is connected to my inbuilt BT handsfree in my car (Skoda Octavia) music player is turned on automatically and it starts to play music. (I cannot hear music because car audio has selected Radio mode not BT audio)
Do you know how to disable it please?
It is not possible to disable it in settings of BT, Music Player, Car Mode, Sounds. I dont want to disable BT audio at all, because I sometimes use it.
Thanks
Michal
This maybe something to do with your car kit or settings? I don't have that problem when connecting to my factory fitted car kit.
Try the "places" setting in "location settings" and use the BT connection to tell the phone you are in the car.
Places were already done - Car via BT connection as you suggested. Not solved

Sorry for my poor english, once connected go to bluetooth settings and select the option of your connected car (the gear symbol on the right) once there uncheck the multimedia option.
No problem, but I know about this option. As I wrote "I dont want to disable BT audio" because I sometimes use it There must be another way to disable it
