So I'm curious, as I see three possibilities:[list][*]It can sort of work, but is unsupported (maybe interference with WiMAX)
  • This key totally prevents trying it
  • This key only warns against it[/list[
  • It can't work for other reasons, and this key prevents trying.
  • It could work quite well, but someone (Nokia? Sprint?) didn't want it to, so this stops it.

The hacker in me wants badly to know what this setting does, but I only have an N800; if you have an N810W and a headset, and want to investigate this, I'd be willing to walk you through editing this setting. Or, if anyone knows, they can just tell us all.

Disclaimer: Obviously, it's possible that trying to circumvent this crashes your device and loses all your data -- or even conceivably bricks your device, although I think that's extremely unlikely. I can't be responsible for what happens to your device, with or without my guidance, but I won't advise anything I wouldn't do to my own.
I use the Seidio 2-in-1 with both my Palm Centro and Nokia N810W:

since this is a wired headset and not a bluetooth headset, it works well for watching videos or listening to music. I haven't tried my Bluetooth headset with it.

I can pair my Bluetrek to it later and test. I'll back it up first and then do a test if you want to post a walk-through on what to change? I'll post the results.
