I have a k750 and the problem i have with its bluetooth is im able to transfer files from my phone to pc. If im transferring from pc to phone, the connection usually gets lost specially if the size of the file is 50kb or more. Im already using the latest full version update of my bluetooth device from bluesoleil but it still haven't solved my connection woes.

...My god.. same here. the bluetooth service with the K750i and even the D750i is absolutely crap. works ok with geniune SE products, but the moment you try it with anyone elses products it either doesnt connect properly, falls down after the first connection. or just doesnt work at all..

When will it be fixed? or won't it?

Hi guys

I've just set up some 2,500 K750i phones complete with HBH-662 headsets, and most of them won't stay connected for more than 12 hours. I chatted with our SE manager and she put us in contact with a developer @ Ericsson.

The K750i / W800 has Bluetooth 2.0. And unfortunately BT 2 wants to connect using EDR - Enhanced Data Rate. Bluetooth 1.1 & 1.2 don't support EDR.

From what I understand, the K750i / W800 tries to reconnect using EDR every 15 minutes or so. This can cause the connecting device to drop the connection...

Does this mean that if we connect our K750/W800 to a Bluetooth 2 device, it will work perfectly and eradicate the problems that seem to occur with devices using Bluetooth 1.1 & 1.2?

Maybe thats why my bluetrek g2 dosen't work with my K750.

I just found these specs on th the g2

Operating distance: 10 meters
Weight: Around 12 grams
Capacity: Up to 9 hours talk-time and 300 hours stand-by time
Bluetooth: Single-chip solution; Complies with Bluetooth specifications v1.1
Ear compatibility: Reversible hook for either ear with smooth material for long hold
Battery: Rechargeable Li-ion with low battery indicator
Noise: Cancels background noise
Volume: Adjustable volume


Bluetooth 1.1

If this is the case then it appears to be a waste of a good headset

I'll hopefully give you folks some info later once I've tried something supplied by SE to see if it gets around the disconnection issue...

Probably Tuesday or early Wednesday.

...Looking forward to the update/news.. and lets hope it does.

anyone know if the new 608i ? or K608i (the 3G model) uses the same "new" bluetooth, or does that one connect ok?

Finally after contacting, Citroen technical in France the route cause of the issues in my bluetooth woes have been discovered.

As someone previously mentioned the K750/W800 is BT 2.0, and the bluetooth built into the car is BT 1.2, which, whilst theoretically compatibile, lacks the full support for BT 2.0 specs, and hence periodically drops the connection.

Answer, get a different phone that supports the 1.2 profile, which I already know, as I have my P910 etc that works perfectly.

The annoying thing is SE continue to claim that the K750 is compatibile with all there BT headsets which clearly it ain't.

What can you do eh!

@Floatlite - you're talking about a Citroen C4, yes?

Had a PM from a C4 VTR owner with the same issue with a W800i. Also, BMW have stated that the K750/D750/W800 phones are NOT compatible with their cars...
