Auto-answer using Bluetooth headset

5 replies · 5,084 views · Started 12 July 2007

Hmm... just got myself a BH-900 bluetooth headset..

Now, there are a number of occasions when i'm likely to be using the headset:
a) whilst driving whereby I can press the answer/hangup button on the headset.
b) whilst gliding whereby i'll have a crash helmet on! - not easy to force a finger or two inside the helmet to answer the fone :con? .

Whilst i've discovered that I can set the n95 to autoanswer (from the Headset Enhancement menu) - i'd like to associate the autoanswer setting with a profile, ie. Normal Mode, Flying Mode, I can't find a way to do this....

Anyone got any suggestions/ideas?

In the Settings menu in Enhancement there is something called a wireless car kit. If you click on this you can set a default profile and specify auto-answer.
Sounds like it's for bluetooth but I can't check as my headset is bu**ered.

Yup.. tried that... it seems that the BH-900 is classed by the N95 as a 'Headset' and not a 'Wireless Car Kit' - even if you set 'Wireless Car Kit' as default it still uses the parameters set in the 'Headset' selection :frown:

Only if you are flying on a commercial aircraft!

The fone operators aren't too keen either.. mainly because the higher you go, the more cells you can contact, which in-turn can cause a few issues.
My flying is mostly <3000ft, more often than not <1000ft ! (due to pants UK weather :frown: )

Man you got problems. I got higher than that in my hang glider. 😉
