Headset
The Headset service makes it possible to have
phone conversations using your computer as a
speaker phone.
This is how the Headset service works:
Sound can be transferred via a Bluetooth link
between your Bluetooth enabled phone and
computer. The phone works as a “gateway” for
the sound to and from the computer. This makes it
possible to carry out a phone conversation using
the (built-in or external) speaker and microphone
of your computer. Alternatively, instead of using
the speaker and microphone of your computer,
you can connect an ordinary (wired) headset to
the computer and use that for the conversation.
How to use the Headset service:
First, establish a link between your computer and
Bluetooth enabled phone. The link can be
established by both devices. To establish the link
from the Bluetooth Neighborhood: Either drag the
local Headset service to the icon in the list view
symbolizing your phone. Or carry out service
discovery on the phone first, then drag the local
Headset service to the remote Audio Gateway
service:
Now, enable the audio (sound): Right-click either
the Headset icon in the Local Services bar or the
icon for the remote service in the list view. Select
Enable audio:
