    CrackBerry Question
    Hey guys, I have a Q10 running on AT&T and have a quick question about a Bluetooth headset.
    I am thinking about getting a headset to use with my phone, but I'd like to know if the Blackberry will play notification sounds through it. Email, text, system notification sounds, etc. Sometimes I'm in a situation where I don't hear the email or text notification sounds through the phone speaker, so I was considering Bluetooth headset so that I would be able to hear notifications right "in my ear". I'm also interested in making calls with it, but all Bluetooth headsets do that.
    Can anyone comment on the Blackberry 10 OS playing notification sounds through the headset?

    Thanks!

    Mine has been temperamental. Some days I'll hear everything, and other days I won't even hear phone calls. Not quite sure why yet.

    I have an H730 and hear every notification. Guess it depends on the capabilities of the headset you purchase and might even be affected by any leaked OS installed as well

    Thanks for the answers guys. I noticed you are both on 10.3. I'm still running 10.2.1.2179. I wonder if the intermittent issues are bugs in the 10.3 software?

    Actually, I only use the BT headset with my Q10 and it's using the latest official release from Bell.

    Oh ok, sorry I didn't realize that 10.3 was already being pushed out by some carriers.
