S710 BT Connection

[Guest 17-APG]

Hi ,

I currently connect my SP5 over the "headset" profile to the sat nav system in my Audi A4. I want to buy the S710 but I see that there is no headset profile. Does this mean that I will no be able to hook up the phone to the car system??

Any guidance on this will be appreciated....

ther is no headset "profile" but there is headset connection...so yes you will be able to connect to your BT car kit(satnave in your case) and to a BT headset...it will use the profile currently selected so don't leave it on silent in the car as you will miss allsorts of calls.

hope that helps

Thanks Conan,

As long as it works over bluetooth I will be happy. But I really cant see why Microsoft are removing important features like this in new versions of the O/S. They should be complimenting them instead. With my SP5 I can set the headset profile to auto answer in 7 seconds and have other useful features. And already someone has told me that the outlook phone book in WM6 is not compatible with the Audi Sat Nav phone preparation sysem. It will not swhow up on the display.... :rolleyes:

Can you see your S710 phone book on your display and call you call numbers from it?

yes, no problem.

although the first time I connected it, it did something strange. It permanently held open the data connection so that the radio/cd never came on.

I deleted the partnership and re-partnered and it is all ok now.
