Michael,
Thanks for info. I was thinking about buying a newer SE headset to see if part of the problem was my older unit, but it seems not.
Every v800 and z800 owner needs to complain to SE about the bluetooth problems. I have multiple times.
I use my z600 with the same BT devices and it never drops and works great.
maybe v15 will fix this?

I am using a HBH-660. I am also connect to my wife's Nokia 6680, and to my Mac. They never disconnect. The problem, I think, actually resides with the BT headsets. Their software is never updated. This something that SE needs to look into as well.

The BT dropping seems to be specific to handsfree connections. I use my Z800i as my modem for internet access with my Mac, and it never drops the BT connection.
SE needs to fix this ASAP! My $200 handsfree carkit has been rendered useless now.

You need to send them an email. Start with the European SE contacts as the US, sorry to say, is the third world when it comes to BT, GSM, GPRS and 3G.

I've installed the update with no problems, but I can never connect to my PC with my bluetooth. Have to keep on installing it over and over. I thought this was my computer, but now I realise it's my phone.

tom - make sure you have the z800 drivers loaded and not the v800 drivers anymore.
get all the new z800 fioes from SE.com and it should work.
I use the thinkpad BT hardware and it works

Got a quick question:
What is the most current software? I just spoke to my SE Svc Ctr. They said R1Y005, as this is the retail version that is currently installed on all store purchased z800i's. My z800 has R1AB014 which Davinci said is the latest version. Could someone please verify this. It would make sense for it to be R1Y005 as is further down the chain alphabetically.
TIA

Apparantly SE has changed the way the name their firmware updates. The latest is the R1AB version. Don't know why they haven't distibuted that to the service centers yet.
Complained to SE about the BT issue, hopefully they will fix it in a future firmware release. This Bluetooth issue plagues the V800 and the Z800 alike.
I have a Motorola HF8000 car kit. And yes, I have tested the handsfree capability of the Z800 with a Nokia / Sony Ericsson carkit aswell, the results are the same.
SE desperately needs to fix this!

BTW, I was given the FTP by GSMEN of Davinci. The current f/w for the z800i is R1AB014. SE lists R1Y005 but this is incorrect.
