I purchased this bluetooth thinking "what a great idea, a Blackberry bluetooth for a Blackberry device".
Well, that depends.
I can use it in my patrol car great, not a problem.
But, once outside in the elements, STATIC, big time.
The Blackberry, an 8330 through Cellular South, and only two (2) feet (or less, attatched to my belt) away from the phone.
I went into options -> bluetooth -> highlighted the device -> menu button -> device properties -> encryption (disabled).
I then tried various settings using the echo feature (auto, on off).
In a building or car, it works great, within one and a half (1 1/2) feet away (in the car) fifteen (15) feet away (in the building).
I don't understand why there is so much static in the elements.
If anyone else has this problem, or knows of a fix, where or how can I find it.
Am I the only one that has this issue, or do others have the same problems.
Are there settings that I am missing or could change that would fix it.
Thanks
