MOTO ROKR E6 / ROKR Z6 with H350 Headset

[vishutl]

I was having the SLVR L7 with the H350 Headset and everything was working fine including the Bluetooth (making / receiving calls, streaming music, and also multimedia) till i traded the Z6 for ROKR E6 a few weeks back. Since then i have tried hard in vain to get the E6 to stream music to the H350 headset, but it seems it is worthless to try the same.
When i spoke to motorola they said the headset does not support the A2DP profile and hence can't stream music.
In contradiction my colleague bought the Z6 a few months back and when i tried to pair my BT H350 it pairs and also plays the music thru the headset. I believe both the Z6 as well as the E6 has BT version 2.0 with A2DP, then why is it that the E6 can't play music thru H350 whereas the Z6 can.

I took my Handset alongwith the Headset to the service center and they were finding it hard to believe my story and claimed that the Z6 also can't play music thru the headset. So they gave me a Z6 handset to check the same, and to my surprise their headset could not play the music thru my headset.

My guess here was Motorola is trying to push their latest headsets (especially the S9) in the market by disabling the required BT profiles in the phones currently avaliable Over the counter.

I had written to motorola and they are still looking into this problem. Even after waiting for the last 4 weeks no reply from them

if anyone here has encounter/exprienced this kinda problem/observation then post/update on the forum. In addition if anyone know how to get the H350 work with the E6 or if there is any patch to H350 for enabling A2DP then kindly provide a link to the same

developers don't wear bluetooth headsets

i found not very much on your problem on the web.

Press and hold the multi-function button until the light is a steady blue. Then initiate a BT search from your E6.

anyone else?

I'm sure he's tried all the obvious things, as mentioned in the manual.

The H350 wont play music to a mono headset no matter what you do or who you write to as far as I know . The Z6 and the E6 have different bluetooth driver implementations, you're lucky the Z6 could play it through mono, but no phone I've used till date has been able to stream music to a mono headset. I doubt the H350 is A2DP and the Z6 must have been streaming it in mono, like a Nokia 6600 does. Hardly worth playing imo anyway.

Hope this clarifys things.

Thank you Xetaman and Akshay - Even though this clarifies - i'm still not convinced. coz i believe there would be a way to do it. I don't mind haveing an mono streaming like the Nokia 6600. I just don't want to go around wearing the S9 headset looking clumsy. Anyways still Motorola comes up with an update either for the H350 or for the E6, i can still continue using the H350 at least for taking calls if not for anything else.
