Latest XT2/Tread software version

[jfheath]

Thanks for the information @turbo19

This post is offered in case it provides information that is useful. Similar set up, different experience. I'm not saying it is better or will solve your problem. But something in here may suggest something to you - because I have never had BT disconnect as you have.

My experience with music via BT from the phone is limited. I checked it out at lenght with the Zumo 595 when the spotify app worked. But it was a disaster. It would work at home, but on the move, it kept cutting out. And the more I ignored it, the worse it got.

I stopped trying to fix it - hence my limited experience. If I want music - which is rare - I use the Zumo's MP3 Player.

I have an XT2 with an Android phone and a Cardo Packtalk Edge. This setup has been 100% reliable.

But
I updated Tread to 2.09.51 yesterday and have yet to try it.

I do not have a BT link between my phone and the Cardo. Once the Cardo is set up by using the phone app, I break that connection. My only reason for doing this is that I suspected that having the set up shown below:

Cardo <----------------->Phone AND Phone <----->XT2<----->Cardo

might present a few issues. I don't know whether it would or not but it looks like a loop to me - so my instinct was to prevent it.

So my Zumo XT2 is paired to my Cardo as a second phone.
That leaves the first phone channel free to connect to the Cardo App without disturbing anything else.

I heve never knowingly had the tread app running on the screen of my phone when riding - so it never synchs while on the move. With the Android, traffic, weather, messages still come through even when the app has been swiped off the screen. I don't know whether that is the case with the iphone.

Did your break in the BT connection happen before 2.09.51 came out (22 Oct 24) ?


Just posing the question. I don't need an answer.

Hi @jfheath ,

yes, my setup is always between phone/XT2 and Cardo/XT2. Never Cardo/Telephone. Right now I have it on the "phone 2" channel with the XT2, without the "calls" option. This way everything works fine. I will try to connect channel 1 only with calls to the motorcycle's TFT.
The problem is that as soon as I put the calls function on the Cardo with the XT2, the interruptions start. Without that option there is no problem. Bluetooth mystery.
Thank you very much
I have opened another post for these topics, so as not to mix it with the Tread APP updates.

You have to make the connection: Phone to Cardo, in order to set up the headset the way that you want it. So it must have been there once. I wondered whether or not that connection still exists. If you didn't delete it, then it will be and may be a factor. You would have to forget / unpair the Cardo connection on the phone.
