How Do I Get The Sony Ericsson W950i To Work For A2dp With My Plantronics Pulsar 590a Headset?
I have a SE W950i with the latest firmware (UIQ 3, . It works fine for the Bluetooth handsfree capability (mono audio) connecting to my Plantronics Pulsar 590A stereo bluetooth headphones. The W950i is supposed to work with A2DP (advanced audio digital profile), but when I attempt to “Transfer Sound” in Walkman mode, I get the message “Could not connect to 590Plantronics”. What gives? Is this headset incompatible with this particular phone? I have selected both “trust this device” and “enable for audio” in the Bluetooth settings configuration menu, and I see “Advanced Audio” in its supported profiles tab. I can use it fine with the dongle adapter but would like to be completely wire-free.
