Hi all,
I’m having a unique issue. I have been riding with a Cardo Spirit HD and it’s worked sans issue for several months. I purchased a Freecom 2x for my wife to use as a pillion since we don’t plan on riding with other people much but I found the audio quality in the Spirit HD kind of crap. Setting them up was a nightmare. Pairing the new device with the phone app and updating was no problem but I could not get them to intercom. I tried doing it through the app but that failed then manually on the devices with hard buttons and that would cause them to disconnect from my phone app (while still being connected via Bluetooth on the phone itself). Did eventually manage to get it working via the app but obviously when we stopped for lunch and turned them off had to go through the nighmare of trying to set them up again through the app.
I’ve done a hard reset, made sure both are updated, and even tried them without them being paired to a phone. I get them to “pair” but no audio actually comes through. Ideally I’d just like to not use the Cardo app. My phone is in my pocket on the bike and Apple Maps already sucks down enough batteries.
I want to press and hold both pairing buttons at the beginning of the ride and just set off which is what I should be able to do but doesn’t seem to actually work. I’ve attached a video below. Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue or if I’m doing something wrong.
