HI to all,
i just received the new jabra bt620s to run a2dp (bluetooth stereo) on my wizard. I have to say i also have a motorola ht820, with which i experience severe problems with a2dp, both with the test rom and the new rom with the "upgrade". The problem which i had with the motorola was a very annoying intermittent a2dp connection, i mean a fraction of a second missing (sometimes extending up to 1-5 seconds) every 10-50 seconds. Listening music like this is - frankly - unacceptable and i decided to change headset.
I have the jabra in action since one hour. the Jabra bt620s is simply FANTASTIC. not only it works flawlessly (i also run voice command) but a2dp is PERFECT, no interruptions. The bluetooth field is about 5m and within the range i never have interruptions. Basses are louder (larger speaker than the motorola) and the comfort is superb (but i also liked the motorola comfort). The volume, a bit weak on both headsets, can be increased by increasing the intensity on media player: however, the motorola shows evident distortions at 100% while the jabra stands beautifully and delivers indeed what you' expect. The look of the jabra is more elegant than the "princess leyla" one of the motorola.
the jabra also has some other nice features: it can be used - through USB - as headset with the windows pc, and media player can be controlled from the headset buttons.
installation on the wizard is flawless in both cases. Now i am using ROM 2.17 and the patch you find on xda-developers.
I cannot guarantee anybody that the jabra works perfectly on ANY wizard. In fact, despite all attempts with my motorola, i also noticed in this forum that other motorola users were satisfied with the a2dp. It was not my case, and i really tried everything - including switching off all the radio sources i have at home (cordless, tv relay, wifi). However, even at my workplace the motorola doesn't work, so i don't feel it is an environment problem but more the specific wizard-headset coupling. The Jabra works as expected! I have the impression both are good and genuine products by professional firms, but in my case one works and the other doesn't. FYI, i bought my motorola in Singapore and my Jabra in Germany/i wonder if different distributors sells equipment with different qualities...but i doubt it. Anyway i have no doubt where they are manufactured!
I just want to propagate my experience: if you want an a2dp headset, buy two (and sell the one you like less) or try it beforehand if you have the chance of finding a store with the material on stock...;-)
Best Regards
I like them both also. My 820 works better than my 620 when it comes to voice command. Getting the Voice Command to operate via headset,620, is hit or miss moreso than the 820. I have had both for over a month. I do use the 620 when I am in the gym or when I am not really going to use the Voice Command feature. I wish TCMP was controllable via AVRCP it would really make the headsets stand out. The sound is way better thru TCMP. I am waiting for the Nextlink Spiders to come out, next month hopefully, it is supposed to put both of these to shame.
I am running Summiter's latest ROM with extra ringers and A2DP and the sort.
i agree but...
Hi,
i fully agree with all your statements but i want to raise again the point that - with my qtek 9100 - the motorola doesn't work correctly while the jabra does!
I just received my jabra BT620s too and I love it!! I didn't have another A2DP headphones before that, but I can tell that it's well built and I find them more stylish than the Motorola BT820. The music sounds great and the phone function is well incorporated. I wish there was a easier way to start the music than from the bluetooth settings (somebody should write a small app that we could map to a button) and I'll like to use something else that WMP to play the music, like TCPMP or Pocket Player.
I'm still trying to do the same functions on my WinXP machine, but I'm unable to send the music to the headphones, even after pairing... If someone know how to do it, let me now. Is there a way to control WMP or Winamp throught bluetooth stereo headphones? By the way I use the widcomm stack on my computer.
HI Survivant,
i don't have BT on the PC, but i could connect the bt620s to the pc with the USB cable. Just push both big pads after 10 secs you are connected to the PC usb, as described in the manual. You can pause/FF from the headset, for example...
Hi All,
I am new to the forum. I have owned a PDA phone for about a month, a Verizon (HTC/Apache/UT Starcomm/Audiovox) XV6700. It was rebadged so many times, I have no idea who really made it.
I read about A2DP Bluetooth technology. I also read reviews of several headsets before purchasing the Motorola HT820 headset.
I loaded up a two-gigabyte mini-SD card with mp3 files, popped it in, paired the headset to the phone and engaged Windows Media Player.
Unfortunately, the sound quality is horrible. It sounds as if I am listening to music played over the phone, as if I am on hold with some customer service call center. I know the headphones are capable of much more because they come with a stereo mini-plug cable. When I plug them into the audio output on my laptop, the headphones come alive with decent sound quality.
I did not modify my registry or add .cab or .dll files. When I paired the headset with the XV 6700, I just checked the "hands free," "wireless stereo," and "headset" options.
Am I missing something or is this the sound quality I can expect from this technology?

Make sure you have the new ROM update for the Verizon VX, and install the Tornado cabs and dll files.
A2dp on xv6700
I have updated my rom, made the Tornado changes, made other reg changes as described in this and related forums - all to no avail. Stereo Sound is constantly clipping. Phone sound is ok.
What else can I try
Feel free to email me direct.
You may want to try another player, like pocket player. Or try another BT stereo headset. If that dosn't work you may want to try getting your device swapped out with a new one. I can't get it to work on my PPC6700, but am waiting for a fix of the EVDO/ring through problem with newer units before I try to swap mine out.
xv6700 a2DP lag
I have already tried the pocket player - no difference. I am also on my second headphone set (albeit from the same vendor).
Unfortunately Verizon will not swap out because an unsupported feature does not work. At least that is what they told me.
Don't worry you are not the only one that can't get it to work.
The bluetooth on the 6700 is not very good, so YMMV when it comes to A2DP. It is a unsupported feature, you may need to convince them the BT is bad, but don't mention the A2DP.
I am waiting for a fix of the EV-DO ring through problem on the shipped PPC6700 with the new ROM before I have Sprint look at mine.
XV6700 A2DP lag problem.
Unfortunately without A2DP "enabled", the bluetooth connection seems to work just fine.
BTW: What is the EV-DO ring through problem?

It dosn't apply to Verizon VX6700, just the Sprint PPC6700.
Low sound quality with 6700 and Moto HT820 headset / A2DP
I am new to posting, be kind please. I have spent a lot of time and research on this problem and I am having some luck and some other problems that there may be some great info on. I do have the latest firmware from UTStarcom (Verizon model) which has AKU 2.0 update. I did install the tornado A2DP I found here and it did not work at first until I found the additional Tor_A2DP_cert.cab file and installed it. It works and seems to be stable, including headset operations. The only problem is sound quality. There is a ringing like high pitched digital noise, my experience in electronics would have me thinking of a bandwidth limitation, or timing issue that would be a result of process priority or something, just guessing! I have the Plantronics 590a stereo headset that sounds great when using the BT with my laptop, so I beleive it is with the phone. The big question, has anyone tried changing the registry settings concerning bluetooth? I see some entries here: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\BTAGSVC and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\BTHIDSVC don't know what they are or what they would do, not brave enough to change them.

I have two BT Stereo headset, 2 different A2DP devices, BT laptop, and a BT dongle and get different results with different combinations.
- Southwing SA505 Bluetooth Stereo Headset (works great with everything, questionable manufacture quality, broke after 3 months of use)
- Moto HT820 Bluetooth Stereo Headset (good quality, but BT functions & sound is problematic)
- Cing 8125 (running Faria Crossbow WM6)
- LG enV VX9900 (vanilla os)
I believe it is just a simple case of both Bluetooth software of your device and headset not getting along together.
The SA505 works perfectly and sound quality is awesome with all A2DP & BT remote devices (including both devices, BT laptop, and a cheap generic usb BT dongle installed on my desktop)
The Motorola HT820 on the other hand is quirky...
Paired to the 8125 - when listening to music, sound breaks briefly (for 0.5 - 1.5 secs) randomly every 30-60 secs. Everything else is fine including sound quality.
Paired to the vx9900 - it unpairs when getting a incoming call & I have to manually pair it back up. Everything else works fine including outgoing calls. Good sound.
Paired to laptop or BT dongle - works perfectly.
in short the only thing that could be done is on the handset side by changing the BT stack or rom.
hope this helps.
Just try MSI Blue Player, this is the only PLAYER which post a high quality sound to my bluetooth ear piece.
VX6700 and Bluetooth
Just as a friendly note, I had the Verizon VX6700 until last week. I had tried numerous bluetooth headsets with it and all seemed sub-par or totally unacceptable. The last one I tried was the Southwing SA505 and was, to say the least, displeased with the sound quality. I shelved all my bluetooth headphones and continued using the Motorola H700 earpiece for phone use only even though it was hard to hear in noisy environments, but was the lesser of all evils. Last week, I was available for upgrade from Verizon and got the LG Chocolate, took it home and put some music on it and used the plug in style headphones for the first day. After getting sore ears from the round-stuff-them-in-your-ear-hole type headphones, I decided to try the Bluetooth headphones again for the mere humor of having spent over $200 on the lot of them. The Southwing SA505 sounded phenomenal on the Chocolate. I then tried talking to my wife driving down the road with the windows rolled down and going 65 MPH, which had always been a problem before. She actually sounded like she was right next to me in crystal clear stereo (which if you have been married 21 years as I have, then you understand what a scary thought that is). I don't think the problem you are having is the headset but rather the phone and unfortunately I have no answer how to fix it, but hopefully have steered you in the right direction of where the problem lies. Good luck to you.
Hi,
i have a very disapointing situation with my NOKIA HS-12W. I have this gadget from 2 months, and now everybody started to complain, that they cant understand our conversation when i am using my headset. It is only 70 cm from my device when i am driving, it is in th holder. But the sound quality is good only when there is less than 20 cm between the device and the headset.They said, that the sound is noisy and they hear only parts of the words. Do you have the same experience, and is there any solution for that? Or i should reconsider the value of the bluetooth feature of this devce.
Many thanks for any help
jep same situation here. got a t-mobile Rom installed and also using Nokia HS-12W. only the first week i reached the +- 9 till 10 meters distance. I have changed some registry settings and now it doesn't work any more. just 20 cm for stereo sound and a lot of stuttering.
i get almost 30 feet from my HT820 and i-take bluepro headphones. i haven't tested my Jabra250, but it's probably pretty good.
Yes, i tought the same, that i have made some registry changes which caused this. But now, after a hard reset , without any registry changes i have the same problem

same here... I've set my registry setting to medium quality so I've reduced the stuttering when it's on my side on my belt. When it's in headset mode I can move further but I can not move as long as 10 meters... s..cks.
Other choice was the SE HBH with the same design I think a 'normal' headset cannot be worn on the streets...
I have the Sony Ericsson stereo bt headset (simliar hang-around-the-neck style as the Nokia). When listening to music, I can't move the phone any further than my belt-clip without having the sound break-up.
So, in my experience, the maximum effective range is 10-20 cm. :x
wich ROM versions does everybody using?
Mine is: UNI_TMNL_130115_130233_11003_WWE_BL101_Ship
this is the latest T-mobile Rom what i know.
I am so sad. Until this i was so proud of having tis device.Today i talked with the QTEK service here in Hungary, and what they told, made me disapointed.They told, there was no solution for that.The Bluetooth antenna is too small, and there is nothing to do. So what is in the specification is a big lie. And they knew it. All we could do it to sue them . This device is to big for using as a standard phone.But with this bluetooth feature there is no other option
The Bluetooth Antenna on the Universal is fine, I can use Bluetooth ActiveSync to connect with my PC and it keeps signal even if I stand in the next room - so the problem is probably your Bluetooth headsets having a weak antenna, not the Universal...

I also have no problems with the bt range for transering files & synching. I also was satisfied with the range & quality with mono bt headsets for telephone calls. However, for bt stereo the range has been quite disappointing.
hello where in the registry did you change those setings ?.. i want to try it out
me too wanna try this.
Well, I was unsure if I should post this under one of the old posts, but I decided to start it as a new clean post...
Many are having problem with "hissing" noise, joint-stereo and low bitrate(or bitpool). For my sake, I've tried "fit4cat - Hermes Tweaker", "Sleuth255 A2DP fix" and several other methods, but without beeing able to get the soundquality I want from my headset.
Now, this is what worked for me after tweaking around with the registry a while, and endless pairing sessions
Download a registry editor(I use PHM, http://www.phm.lu/Products/PocketPC/RegEdit/ <- Download the PocketPC 2002/2003 ARM/PXA)
1: Turn off bluethooth on the Trinity
2: Unpair the Trinity with the headset(Delete the headset from the list!)
3: Change the following registry settings:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A2 DP\Settings
MaxSupportedBitPool=80
MinSupportedBitPool=40 (or more if you want)
(if these arn't there, add them!)
And DELETE:
UseJointStereo = 0/1 (depending on whatever you have put there before)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev]
Priority256=149
(let the rest be as it is)
4: Reboot
5: Now, DO NOT use the headset for direct pairing!(since you've already added your phone to the headset, pressing a button on it will useually pair it back with the Trinity) <- This seems to be the function that triggers the sound-problem...
Instead, set the headset in visible mode, and use the trinity to pair(search for new devices), when you find the headset and pair it, you will hear the pairing-sound from the trinity-speaker, and NOT the headset.
Now you can enjoy high quality stereo sound without any disturbance
But, the problem comes when you turn off your Trinity, or the headset. If you try to connect the headset and the phone by using the connectbutton/playbutton on the headset, it will pair, but this time you will hear the pairing sound in the headset, and then you have all your problems back... So then you have to turn of bluethooth, delete the headset from the trinity, and add it back once again by turing the headset in visible mode again.
So the solution to this, is to go to the device list on the trinity after you have lost connection with the headset(this is if you have turned of the trinity or the headset), and hold the stylus on it and choose "Use as wirelss stereo" and "use as handsfree"...
Thanks to all of you guys here who have posted solutions to the A2DP problems And if anyone have suggestions to other values that are better fit then the onces I've supplied, share them with us
And if all of this have been posted in another thread that I've missed out, the moderators are free to delete this one
Good grief, I can only imagine how many times you had to pair the headset before you noticed what was going on LOL, hope you didn't turn blue in the face
I imagine a ROM update could fix this problem.

Hehe! The thing that made me going was that I was able to get perfect sound once or twice, and since I made it work those few times I just had to find out what I actually did that made this work (And paying 175$ for the headset also keept me fueled for a while ) hehe!
I think I've used about 5-6 hours total these two days sitting pairing, adjusting settings, rebooting(ARGH!), untill I found out that the problem actually occurs when you use the headset to pair instead of the trinity
I don't understand what is it with bluetooth stereo:
quality is not good enough to listen to music 64 kbps... no bass, no medium, nothing just a hiss.
and plus you get 80% cpu (with a 400Mhz...), just to encode this crappy 64 kbps.
Yes exactly for all people having so many skipping problems check your cpu with taskmgr.
So you cannot play video with A2DP unless you have 1Ghz!!! good for battery life.
If you like music you want good earbuds. There's none with A2DP.
So what's the point again apart from having to charge one more device?

1: Well, I'm not sure on the bluetooth 2.0 specs, so If there is a spec limit on 64kbps, then this is new to me.
2: And the skippingproblem is not just connected to the CPU-usage.. But if you have some info on this issue, then please; do share it with us.
3: A2DP headset with minijack is available many places, even HTC has one. And if you take a look at DS970, you will see that it's the same as Sony MDR-series.
4: And well, the CPU usage is a issue, but that is the only part that I agree with you on..(but let us be frank, I've bought a pair of A2DP headset, so I do smell a bit "conflict of interests" here...)
And to the bottom line, I've bought the Trinity because it's one hell of a gadget, and so is bluetooth stereo So if anyone want to shoot me for that, well hell yeah, go ahead
Edit: And FYI meroupow: I do feel you are a bit rude in the way you wrote that response, or at least a bit arrogant when you post a comment like that. Trying to mock people who have bought A2DP headsets and are tweaking and fixing issues to make them work correct(this also goes for GPS on the phone, black coating comming off, improving camera quality, getting the ATI ImageOn to work correctly... etc) . And I must honestly say that yes, you do have some points there, but you should be able to present your views in a much more polite way...
Sound better but discontinuou. Impossible ear music. The sound goes on and off continuously. Why?. How can I do?
I am sorry if you felt I was being rude.
That was not my point and It was probably the wrong place to say what I said.
It is just that just like you I bought this A2DP stuff with my Wizard.
Just like you I tweaked it as much as I could and managed to get it work.
The problem is when it comes to sound quality is important and just working is not enough.
When you show your happiness because it's finally working, people think you are happy because it's good and they are buying it. And get disappointed too.
I just wanted to warn people on the fact that it's not working to watch movies because of cpu and that a 5$ earbud will have far superior sound quality.
It's just a toy and by no way a mature technology.
I've got a CB2530, hard to pair and I still don't know what do I do for the pairing to be successful, but I do manage to pair it after a few attempts, on the registry I just disable jointstereo, set the MaxSupportedBitPool to 320 and the quality is quite nice and with minimal skipping. High cpu usage of course, but if I set the MaxSupportedBitPool to 80 the quality is quite crappy and the device gets equally sluggish(gets worse when you touch on the screen, as K-Rally does even with the new ROM).
As for the pairing, I still haven't confirmed, but I think the registry setting that enables the bluesnarf option on BTCrawler has something to do with it(the bluetooth ISC mode thing), because right after setting it I managed to pair the headset right away, the thing is, I was also successful in other occasions when I hadn't set that reg. option.
Hearing the pairing sound from the trinity or headset doesn't indicate anything on my case, and I think I've already tried these reg settings you mention, but I'll try them again as soon as I get home to see if there's any difference and post the results.

Does anyone know what is changed when you DO pair with the button on the headphones? With some models, you MUST do it because, otherwise, the music will be muted after about a second (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=282008 for more info).
I've searched around in the Registry for changes, without any success. It's possible we could directly edit the headphone connection-dependent parameters set AFTER the headphone's initiating the connection to avoid sound problems. If we knew where they're stored, that is.

BTW: is it the profile and software on the phones/PDAs that arn't handling it, or is it the standard itself that sucks? (or in other words, should I keep my headset for later usage or return it to the store)
I use Plantronics 590a and the skipping problem appears very rarely, mainly when I use volume/track buttons on headset. However, yesterday I also connected the headset to a normal stereo (via the 3.5mm adapter) and noticed the same occasional skipping. So in my opinion the skipping issue problem might be from headset, not Trinity.
I also tried a Nokia stereo bluetooth headset and noticed serious skipping problems - unusable.
PS: there is indeed a skipping problem if I open/close other applications while listening to music. It looks like the processor is very busy - system very slow etc.
PPS: any suggestions for a player that has equalizer? WMP doesn't and the sound is not that great (especially when compared to my old SE P900 which had an excellent player - best I've heard so far... )

Stereo BT experience is very positive
Hi all,
As always, someone has to have a different view of the issue. I got my trinity a couple of weeks ago and went and bought a Plantronics Pulsar 280 stereo headset. Mostly because of the stereo jack. I have not updated trinity nor have I applied any fixes, just paired right out of the box, as always from trinity BT manager. It really sounds great, particularlly the base is fantastic because of the earbud design. Even you may choose the actual headset of your dreams by using the standard 2.5mm jack. I have owned a "no brand" headset (still do) but it is not BT 2.0 and I think it makes a difference. The plantronics does not skip and it sounds great. Most of my MP3 is 128k and above so no limits with that. I have not checked my registry settings as they are default rom image set. I am using ROM 1.15.412.2 and Radio 1.20.00.11 (my trinity only speaks spanish for now, hope to change that soon).
Point being that the software and quality of the headphones makes all the difference, don't be so quick to blame trinity, just a piece of my mind. Keep it up guys!!!

Is it possible to send voice commands from TOM TOM to a bluetooth enabled device?
What are the settings? I can get the voice commands to work with my Jabra headset but not my receiver...
I just got a nifty car receiver that takes A2DP music and phone calls. GPS routing over BT would complete it!
I did some more testing.
It seems that the tomtom signal comes over the A2DP bluetooth signal.
So on my car stereo, the tomtom commands will come through, only if I have the stereo on bluetooth mode. Not the best if you wish to listen to the radio.
Is there a way to force the tomtom commands over the HCP (Hands Free Profile)? That way the voice commands will be forced to the car stereo and interrupt radio play.
kww
there used to be a registry patch or program that peeps used to use to allow them to listen to music through the BT headset. This was before A2DP existed hence the need, most peeps dismissed it because it was mono and poor quality audio (like listening to your music over a phone line,) but I have a feeling it is exactly what you are looking for !
I have downloaded a couple of programs, but they don't seem to work.
What is needed is some sort of program where you can pick the software to rout the audio either to a2dp or HFP...
the software im thinking of gave the choice of routing ALL system audio (including music) via headset profile bluetooth or not, at your choice !! trust me, it is what your looking for.
Problem is, most of those programs are/were pre WM5 and don't work with WM6, BTaudionav is an example. Regardless, if you come up with a software title, let me know.

you should search in the forum for the universal, that is where I would have seen it, as that is the phone I had at the time, It shipped with WM5 but was a long time coming with a rom that supported A2DP, in the mean time these programs popped up !

I am going to read through the entire thread, but the line of code that says:
"UseJointStereo"=dword:00000000
just turns off the A2DP; 00000001 enables.
Further, it routs all A2DP to mono.
Got through the thread, it really doesn't do what I want.
What I am trying to do is to have music port to A2DP stereo of my car receiver as normal, and have TomTom audio commands to the HFP.
That way you can play music over bluetooth, and when tomtom audio starts, it will pause music play and the tomtom command can be heard loud and clear.
As of right now here is what I can do:
TomTom audio commands via A2DP to car stereo (makes for a boring ride)
Music via A2DP to car stereo
Play both music and TomTom over A2DP, but music player is NOT interupted when a TomTom audio command comes through
I am going to search the tomtom forums, but I doubt I will have any luck there.

I see what your trying to do, and it is true there is nothing that quite manages it, the problem is that tomtom would have to be written or modified to use HFP when the commands are played, the best you could hope for is to reduce the volume of your audio to ie 70% and leave tomtom at 100%, this will make the tomtom commands really standout when they are played.
That would be a good compromise, thanks.
fwiw, I have the question into tomtom support, but doubt if those monkeys can do anything...

I hope you get a result, but as you already know, their support is useless
I have read a bit about mort script. I have to learn more, and perhaps there might be a way...
Try Teksoft BlueMusic, this routes all audio to headset.
I used to use it with Skype on the Athena, till I found Fring.
