Hello,

glad to see theres still a community caring about the n900! I have a very strange problem that occured only recently, there is nothing i can find on it on the internet (i write this after three desperate days of googling, trying out similar solutions, etc).

THE PROBLEM:

I bought a SolarVoice908 Bluetooth-Headset which is able to pair with multiple phones. So i paired both my IPhone4S and the N900 to it, no problem. I could use everything on the N900, like listening to music, making calls, receiving calls, anything - until recently. All of a sudden when trying to make a call or receive a call, the headset doesnt get any data and doesnt send any data. Meaning i cant hear the caller and they cant hear me either. The funny thing is: i can hear the ringtone in my headset when i am being called. Calling and receiving calls on the headset with the iphone works flawlessly. --> Problem is with the N900.

What is even more strange: the phone is still paired with the headset, i can listen to music that i play on the N900 over the headset, i can hear for example when i close a window on the N900 ("swooshing" sound), and i even hear the ringtone on the headset when i am being called on my N900.

This is what i tried so far to no avail/no improvement:
- switching bluetooth on iphone off, deleting profile on iphone for solarvoice908
- deleting profile on N900 for solarvoice908 and paired it with the solarvoice908 again
- sudo gainroot and rm -rf /var/lib/bluetooth/--> everything here, at the beginning there was a folder with my mac-adress and a folder called "...-callerid-allowed". After deleting those there appeared a new folder with the mac-adress again as well as "...-callerid-none", which i also deleted
- to every step i switched the phone off and back on again
- tried sudo gainroot and stop/start bluetoothd
- switched WLAN on/off and tried the above

I cannot think of anything else that might cause this or might solve this, any of you have a clue what is left to do for me? It especially puzzles me that the phone actually IS transferring data via bluetooth (music/ringtone/regular sounds from the phone), but simply seems not to transfer calling data back and forth to the bluetooth device...

BTW, there were no updates i made with the N900. Its not online and hasnt been for a long time now (I mostly use my Iphone4 now, due to living rural and getting very weak signal, which made me only rarely use my N900). Also I didnt install/removed anything lately, not that i can remember.

Any help is greatly appreciated, fellow N900-worshippers!
