asterisk users - Mar 2006 - Bluetooth headset in handsfree modewith SJPhoneorX-lite

I am able to pickup, hangup, and flash, using the buttons on the phone
with all of the soft clients and both of the headsets I mentioned below.
I don't believe I had to change anything on the client side, just had to
get the ctp (cordless telephone profile) working in the bluetooth stack,
which was a pita. I struggled with the same issue...I could use the
headset, but that's not very handy when you have to run to the pc to
pickup or hangup a call!  I'm working with doing a voice-recognition
dial using the new voxeo prophecy server to add functionality to this,
so that I can outgoing dial as well.

Hi,

Are you able to answer calls by pressing the answer/hangup button on
your headset or are you using the computer to answer the calls with a
SIP phone. I can get the head set to work fine with the PC and sip
phones what I cannot do is get the answer/hangup button on the head set
to actually answer a call (for some odd reason it turns the bluetooth on
and off and this occurrs with several different head sets).

Thanks for the info on the stack - good reference

Hi,

This is interesting you used the ctp profile. Did you document how you 
changed it?

Thanks
