Love your vids mate, I recently purchased a new JBL bolds after using my previous set of Packtalks .. I have noticed that when in DMC mode whilst playing music the music volume is not independent from the Intercom volume.. it use to work like this ... DMC mode get a voice check roll volume to desired level... In DMC mode and no one is talking and music is playing roll volume to desired level. Perfect.... Now no matter what when in DMC mode with music playing it is impossible to set music volume independently from independent from Intercom volume...

Hey MotoGeek. Great channel. Always my go-to place when I get stuck with the Packtalk. Think I pretty much have the hang of it now, thanks to you. Bit stuck again now though. I have just updated to the new Packtalk Bold JBL from the Packtalk. It looks like everything is now done via the phone app. There is also the new Cardo Update computer app and it appears that you no longer have to do anything via the Cardo Community anymore. It's still a bit confusing, as the docs with the unit tell you to register via the community site but when you go there it doesn't appear to work anymore with the units. We had registered the old units on the new desktop app for updates. The community site no longer seems to recognise that I have the Cardo Updater installed. Sent something off to support but don't expect much back from them. The unit gets picked up straight away in the Cardo Update app but this app is only for firmware updates by the looks. I suspect the docs are now out of date with the release of the Cardo Update app. Do you know if this is the case, that we no longer need to register or do anything (like settings) via Cardo Community anymore? Also, do you have to do anything, other than making sure Voice Control is turned on in the phone app, to have the unit respond to voice commands? Neither unit responds to voice commands, so wondering if I am supposed to do anything else to have this work. Haven't found anything in the guides. Have turned up voice recognition sensitivity.

If it's still not pairing to your phone, I would do a Master Reset on your Packtalk (see video on that as well) then try again. If STILL not pairing to your phone, do the latest firmware that just came out (v5.6). Something is wrong with the headset if none of this works. Doesn't matter that it's not a Bold model, and doesn't matter that you have an iphone/iOS, it's 100% compatible with those and should be pairing.

Hi, Great overview. I am hoping you have some insight into the mute future. How does some let you know they are trying to reach you when you mute audio? If I mute so I can sing along with my music my wife who is on her bike behind me has no way of breaking in or indicating she wants me to come off mute. Given this feature rich device, I have to believe there is a way for her to cut in on my mute or send some notification?
@MotoGeekFreak4 жыл бұрын
Great question and I've been hoping for this exact same ability. As of this post, when you're muted, the other person cannot reach you. They (Cardo) need to change it so that you can mute just your mic but still be able to hear inbound chatter if someone's trying to reach you. Hopefully this will happen soon! One thing worth trying... have her try to reach you using the "Private Chat" feature (see my video on that for more info) while your headset is muted. I'm not positive but I'm almost certain that it gives you a tone when activated, and that could serve as an indication to you that she's trying to reach you if so. Hope it helps!

Can you help please?
@MotoGeekFreak4 жыл бұрын
This is tough because I don't have a Freecom 4 to play with, but do try these things and maybe it will help: - Make sure both of your Freecom's have the latest firmware-- they just released one recently that added Parallel Audio Streaming when connected to iOS phones (previously could only do it when paired to an Android phone). This should allow you to talk to each other while listening to music in the background. - If not doing background music, you should be able to force the Intercom to close down/stop by clicking the Intercom button once (either one of you) once you're ready to return to music, instead of waiting for it to time-out. Once the intercom is closed I believe the music SHOULD come back automatically. Then, when you want to talk again, just click the Intercom button to open it back up again. Hope that helps!

Now, when you go to start the music from your helmet (or the app), the phone knows where to pick-up from! It will start playing from the Spotify or whatever instead of playing from the phone's native player. Hope that helps man!

They can be changed by either the app or the headset itself. The only ones that I really lean on the app to control (and the headset may not be able to control at all) are the System Announcements and the Back Music Level sliders.

Not sure what the issue is, but some tips: Make sure you are saying "Hey Cardo" followed directly by the command (don't wait for a beep or a pause or anything). Make sure the voice command is EXACTLY as written in the instruction, for example if you say "Hey Cardo what's my battery level" nothing is going to happen, but if you say "Hey Cardo, Battery Status" it should tell you. Other tips, don't shout (even at highway speed), just talk in a normal voice. And make sure the mic is in front of you mouth. I hope that helps!!

Next menu you'll see "Unit name" - select that then change it to whatever you want. Keep in mind when you do this you're only changing YOUR unit's name - it's up to the others to do the same. Assuming everyone has named their unit, next time you go to open the app and see your group, it will show all the members names instead of just "PACKTALK, PACKTALK, PACKTALK BOLD," etc. Hope that makes sense and helps out!

@Alex Trajano yeah, it's kind of annoying too I totally get it. It does it because when the Packtalk goes into pairing mode for anything, it temporarily drops the ongoing connections it has to make that new pairing. So, it puts the pairing to your phone on hold, which makes the app think it's not connected to anything. Most of the time I'll just do what you do...close the app and wait a min to reopen it once the dust settles. But if you just leave the app open while the Packtalk pairs to the non-cardo, then automatically re-connects to your phone, the app will come back to life. Hope that helps man!

MotoGeek Freak it had version 4.0 on it. Don’t if this is normal, but I think my product was once already opened and then sent back before i bought it. The users manual was missing, everything else was there and everything is new. No problem, let’s not waste paper if we have all docs online. Advise: before connecting and beeing super excited, forst register at the community and connect packtalk to pc and upgrade, only after all this start with the mobile app

Great video, thanks, I have one doubt, when the list is full and you want to eliminate some members, how can you do that? Eliminating members from a group, thanks

Interesting choice of words hehe
@MotoGeekFreak4 жыл бұрын
As of now (8/25/20) you can't. The member you want to "eliminate😎" can remove themselves, but you can't eliminate them. When I run into this issue, I end up just creating a new group and erasing the old one altogether. Hope that helps!

how do yo uexit out of the app?..I have to turn off my phone and restart it to get it to go away :(....other than that I am loving it
@MotoGeekFreak4 жыл бұрын
lol no way! Not sure what phone you have but google "force closing an app on my (put your phone model here)". If i run into trouble with the app, I force close it and relaunch to get it working properly again. Anyways I hope that makes sense and let me know if not!

What if you have SiriusXM on your phone?

I would just play through the native SiriusXM app and don’t bother trying to play through the Cardo app - that works perfectly 👌

How is music sharing on Mesh? The music sharing on a 20S is pathetic
@MotoGeekFreak5 жыл бұрын
@syumassh Well, the answer is not good because you cannot share music while in DMC/Mesh Intercom Mode. You can do it while in Bluetooth Intercom Mode, and it works pretty well actually, but it would be IDEAL in DMC Mode because that's how you want to use this headset in the first place. Don't hold me to this, but a few months back I inquired about this very thing and heard that it would be coming out as a firmware update. To me, if they can get music sharing down while in DMC Intercom Mode that would be the top of the mountain. Hope that helps!

Sirius isn't integrated into the app (Spotify is as of this post) but YES you can absolutely play Sirius. I do it often, just launch/play-from the Sirius app on your phone and you're good to go.

The help secion is no longer in the APP it takes you to the website. This is bad because if you don't have internet you get no help. Hey, Cardo put the help info back in the app!

Min nombre es Ricardo Papetti de Argentina , cometí el gran error de comprar esta marca de intercomunicador CARDO, me deje llevar por la propaganda que le hacen , segun es el mejor equipo del mercado, Algo totalmente fuera de la realidad anteriormente tenia un intercomunicador de un costo muy inferior pero de una gran prestación , hasta el punto de no verlo a mi compañero de viaje y sin embargo seguimos comunicados, con este equipo la máxima distancia fue una cuadra 100m con su sistema DMC , en conclusión no recomiendo a nadie que pase por mi mala experiencia , realmente es un pésimo equipo, y muy complicado de manejarlo por lo complejo que es, espero que este comentario llegue a la fabrica y aquellos que quisieran comprarse este tipo de intercomunicador CARDO saludos.

Easy to set speed dial??? HOW???? You just skip over it! There is no instructions ANYWHERE! I can't get it to work.
@MotoGeekFreak2 жыл бұрын
When you’re looking at the Phone page, the top slot is the Speed Dial (the other 3 are just Favorites which can only be accessed from the app). Off to the right of top box, you should have an option to “set” your speed dial. Select that, choose your speed dial number, and that’s it. From there, just say “Hey Cardo Speed Dial” and it will call that number. Hope that makes sense and helps out!

@@MotoGeekFreak I finally got it to accept my pick. However, Cardo ignored my voice command. Supposedly, you can add more speed dials. Right. I THINK I may have found a phone # where I can get some help.

Should work for sure - I have the same phone. Try to turn your phone off then back on - then go to Settings -> Bluetooth. On the Packtalk, press and hold the "Mobile" button until you see that rapid red/blue LED flashing. Packtalk should show up on your phone shorty afterwards...select it. If that doesn't work, do a master reset on the Packtalk. If THAT doesn't work, something is likely wrong with the Cardo. I hope that helps and good luck!!!
