![]() With this tweak installed, all you need to do upon an incoming call is bringing up the SBSettings window (one quick gesture by default) and enabling the tweak by tapping its icon. The Cydia page of the latter (as usual, click the image for a larger version!):īTMono SBSettings Toggle, as you may have guessed, puts a new icon in the SBSettings menu (annotated by a red rectangle in the following screenshot): Then, all you'll need to do is getting SBSettings and, then, BTMono SBSettings Toggle from Cydia. I've tested this problem on several of my devices (iPhone 3GS, iPad 2 and iPad 3, all running iOS 5.1.1 on the iPad 2, I've tested both the iPhone and the iPad version) and A2DP headphones ( Jabra Halo, Plantronics Pulsar 590, Plantronics BackBeat 9xx).Īll in all: unfortunately, if your device isn't jailbroken (see below), all you can do in order to be able to use your headset / phones is constantly, after every single call, killing and restarting Skype.Īs usual, if you do jailbreak your iPhone / iPad, you'll have a much easier time. ![]() This problem is very thoroughly discussed HERE. Then, you'll have another call when you can use the headset. If you did conduct a call using a BT unit, it will no longer work until you completely kill Skype (by long-pressing it (or any other icon) in the task manager and tapping its red cross) and restart it. The problem is as follows: no matter which (iPhone or iPad) version of Skype you use on what iPhone or iPad model and what kind of stereo microphone-equipped headphones or mono headsets you use, you'll only be make your very first call with the headset - if at all.īoth Skype app versions suffer from the same problem: the audio is re-routed to the headphones (headset) only if you haven't used Bluetooth for Skype calling yet. Therefore, I decided to investigate the problem and come up with solutions to it. ![]() ![]() Instead, I needed to use the speaker / microphone on the iPad itself, making my environment hear what both I and the other party say. As I exclusively use stereo (A2DP) Bluetooth headphones in the gym to give me absolute, cable-less iPad 3-video-watching freedom while exercising, I've also run into problems related to the Bluetooth bugs of Skype: most of the time, I couldn't just use the headphones I already worn to conduct the call. ![]() While in the gym, I tend to make / receive a lot of Skype calls to my wife or relatives. ![]()
