I just got my first Android phone - a gently used Droid 2 Global. I've had it for a few weeks and I used it initially as a wifi only device to get used to it. I recently switched over my VZW service to the phone and for the most part it seems fine.

However - My favorite bluetooth headset - a BlueParrott Xpressway - is not entirely working as expected with it. When I initially paired the two I got a message saying that the phone could not control the headset volume - actually it seemed to be claiming this was due to the headset. But this same headset works correctly with an iPhone 4 and a Palm Pre Plus without this issue.

The next oddity was when I used voicesearch. With my iPhone 4 I hear the voice search prompts in my headset - with the D2G I hear them from the phone's speaker - is that normal?

The next oddity was that when I dial certain contacts - Not sure what the pattern is yet - I get an intense burst of static from the headset and then this goes away as it rings.

The next oddity is that at the end of the call - the end of call tone is very loud - much louder than the calls.

I think that's all that I can recall that's happening with the bluetooth.
