Impressive Docooler performance on G5

[greggill]

I know there has been lots of discussions about compatible Bluetooth devices for the G4 and G5. I have had some luck with the Docooler. It easily connects with my G5. There are NO annoying beeps before every transmission. It is pretty responsive too — there doesn’t seem to be any delay in receiving traffic.

The only problem I’m having with it is that it will often lock up my G5. The G5 will shut itself off and the only way to get it to turn back on is by popping the battery out and putting it back in.

The Docooler performs well, but the G5 doesn’t like it for some reason. I’m holding on to it in hopes that a future firmware update will fix the problem.

I had two of them and one was bad. The one I have now works great with the G5. It doesn't lock up the G5 at all.

Had one for over a year. Finally quit charging up. It DID have a few burps and turned off at times. Restarting it and the pager usually worked. I'm getting a new one *back in stock now on Amazon* for Christmas from Santa. There are several of those on Amazon under different names of course that all look the same. They ARE the only thing I've found that has no tones/music before calls/transmissions for Blue Tooth.

Unication has a firmware update in beta testing that is supposed to correct the pagers bluetooth issues.

I like my Docooler, too. But, I have had the same problems as you with lock-ups. I used it today to play my G4 through my car's audio system. When I brought it back into the house the G4 would not turn on. I had to do a battery pull to get it to work again. Hoping the firmware update has a fix.

I am curious about the “reset” procedure being used here, I just push and hold the two side buttons and the top button simultaneously until the three LEDs on top glow orange, then release. I’ve had my G5 almost 2 years and I’ve pulled my battery maybe twice to reboot.

Where did you hear that?

I pull the battery, as suggested by Unication.
