    BT headset question/ profiles

    Is there a way to set a profile up with BT disabled.

    I want to create a "home" profile that will turn off Bluetooth when activated.
    I searched here, at crack, online, can't find a solution.

    Sav, I know you can come through with this one!
    If anybody would know its you!

    Tony, are you talking about the Profiles associated with Sounds and In-Holster and Out of Holster settings?

    I am not aware of any BT settings tied to those....

    Nope.
    I just want to be able to disable BT.
    What I am trying is turning off BT. Then creating a profile.

    Nothing to do with the holster.
    Just trying different ways to save some battery life.

    I guess I am just not understanding the need for a Profile. If you want to turn off BlueTooth, just go to Manage Connections > BlueTooth > Off

    Unless you are actively using BT it should be off to conserve the battery. That said, I leave it on all the time and I have to charge my battery every two days or so.

    Do you leave your BB on 24/7? If not you could utilize the Auto On/Off for the overnights to save battery life...

    I am the same way with leaving it on and turning the headset off.
    I also have the auto off feature set and get 2-3 days from my battery.
    just something that I thought would be easy to do...
