Bluetooth profiles
Depending on your BlackBerry® device model and wireless network, some profiles might not be supported.

Description
Audio Source (A2DP) This profile allows you to output audio from your BlackBerry device to Bluetooth® enabled devices that
support stereo audio such as stereo headsets, speakers, and car kits.
A/V Remote Control
(AVRCP)
This profile allows you to use the buttons on a Bluetooth enabled headset to perform actions such as
adjusting the volume or playing the next or previous media file on your BlackBerry device.
Data Transfer
This service allows you to connect your BlackBerry device to Bluetooth enabled devices that support
the transfer of data such as media files.
Desktop
Connectivity
This service allows you to connect your BlackBerry device to a Bluetooth enabled computer that is
running BlackBerry® Desktop Software so that you can synchronize your organizer data.
Dial-Up Networking
(DUN)
This profile allows you to use your BlackBerry device as a modem when it is connected to a Bluetooth
enabled computer that is running BlackBerry Desktop Software.
Handsfree (HFP)
This profile allows you to connect your BlackBerry device to Bluetooth enabled headsets and car kits
that support the Handsfree profile.
Headset (HSP)
This profile allows you to connect your BlackBerry device to Bluetooth enabled headsets that support

Message Access
Profile (MAP)
This profile allows you to use a Bluetooth enabled car kit with your BlackBerry device to notify you of
new messages. This profile can also help you read, delete, browse, compose, and send messages.
Serial Port Profile
This profile allows you to connect your BlackBerry device to Bluetooth enabled devices that support
desktop connectivity, wireless bypass, and data transfer.
SIM Access
If your BlackBerry device uses a SIM card, this profile allows you to use a Bluetooth enabled car kit to
control the SIM card on your BlackBerry device so that you can make and receive calls using the car kit.
When you use this feature, data services (browser service, email messaging, PIN messaging, and MMS
messaging) are not available on your device, and phone services are accessible only through the car
kit. Before you can use this feature, you might need to enter a 16-digit alphanumeric code, generated
by the car kit, on your BlackBerry device.
