Hey everyone,
First off, this site is awesome, and thanks so much to everyone here, especially those who have taken the time to figure out how to tweak the heck out of these devices!
Anyways, I'm running the Qtek test ROM on my T-Mobile MDA. I have a stereo bluetooth headset (Motorola HT820) that works fine for streaming audio, but the buttons don't work for controlling it (i.e. AVRCP is problematic). I use TCPMP as my audio player which worked fine with my Axim x50V in WM2003SE. Any ideas why this may be happening on this ROM? I understand it's a test ROM, and that's exactly what it's for - testing. But I sure hope I can get AVRCP to work with this!
are you able to use the AVRCP profile using windows media player?
I can seek forwards and backwards, but not pause/stop it....

Hi Guys,
I wanna share something i found out a while ago.
I am currently holding on to a Motorola HT820 and a BlueAngel and i was kinda playing around with it wondering why i cannot answer phone calls and only can play my MP3's. Here is the solution.
Install the A2DP Profile
Soft Reset
Pair it up to your BT Stereo headset using high quality audio
now, upgrade to build 3900.
Run the restartradio.exe
run the bt upgrade cab file
run the restartradio.exe
Now, pair it up to bluetooth handsfree headset.
This works wonders. It seems to work best on WMP10. I have tried
Mortplayer but, after i answer calls, it stops playing and does not resume.
For WMP10, it resumes fine. I have only tested on BlueAngel and HT820.
I dont have the luxury to get my hands on other devices as yet.

ENJOY !!!!
this currently works best on WMP 10
You can continue listening to music after your call ends with mortplayer,
you have to disconnect the pairing and re-pair again..
XDAII and Motorola HT820
Hey guys,
I'm contemplating buying a Motorola HT820 but I'm concerned that it might not work with my phone - I have an XDAII with WM2005 1.60A installed. anyone know anything?
Thanks and best regards...
Hi
This sounds like what I've been waiting for too.....
I have an XDA II running 2003SE will this work with this combo any ideas?
Good one... will try it later
Has anyone tried with Motorola HS 850???
Has anyone tried with Motorola HS 850???
So far, i have not tried it on XDAII... but i think it should work..
Can anyone confirm if this is possiable with an XDA II as having read through numerious threads on the subject of Bluetooth implementation with various Wicomm configurations, but cannot clearly identify that the A2DP Protocol can be successfully made to work on an XDA II.
I suspect that this can only operate on an XDA IIi or XDA IIs. My requirement is to get a set of Motorola HT820 Bluetooth Stereo Headphones to function with my XDA II via Bluetooth, I am not really worried about the Phone Headset function I would just like to hear Audio via Media Player 10.
Thanks
I have just upgraded to 1.40 ROM (iMate) with Orange EXT ROM on M2000. I have radio 1.13 and the A2DP profile loaded.
Everything was working fine with the old ROM and wmp9, but wmp10 does not respond to the pause, back and forward buttons on the ht820.
Does anyone have this working on ht820? Is there a known work around?
Motorola BT820 Audio Gateway and a player
I've followed the steps above and now have the two new profiles and have managed to pair my Motorola BT820's without any problems.
I've read that this works best with WMP10 but since I don't have this I decided to try Mortplayer.
Silly question : How do I get my XDAIIs to send the audio to the headphones ? Their is an outgoing connection between the two but the sound still comes out of the speaker on the XDAIIs.
If a phone call comes in then this is directed up to the BT820's
Help

i have done over 50 hard resets.. many tries and it seems to be an intermittend prob.
@woodrjh
In this way a HP Bluetooth Headphones and a Motorola HT820 works with my xda IIi in a2dp mode incl. the Buttons in WMP10.
1. remove the RunBT file from the Autostart dir -> softreset
2. Install the PDA2K_BroadcomCorp_BTUpdate.cab -> softreset
http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/handheldiPAQ/us/download/22475.html
3. Install the HP iPAQ Bluetooth Stereo Headphones Driver Update -> softreset
http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/handheldiPAQ/us/download/22475.html
If the error \windows\btceavif.dll in use come, rename it with Resco File Editor and try again the driver update.
4. Put the the RunBT file back to the Autostart.

does this method enable your bluetooth headset to receive calls?
Has anyone been able to make these headphones work with the wizard?
I have searched forums but cannot find a solution.
Hp do not have any drivers to install onto wm5 operating system.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
you don't need drivers. Just use search to find the cab update en use them.
I've just received mine: they work perfectly!
just bought a set, Help
:?: Hello, I just bought a set of these off ebay, have t-mobile mda vario flashed with the cingular rom. I am reading your posts, but cannot figure out what you are talking about with the cab update. my device finds the hp headphones just fine, but there is no usage choices listed,how do I get these things to work? is there an install file I can download? Please help.
HasC,
I've got the Logitech one and they are the same as HP.
Power of the headphones and keep pressing the power button until the led flashes red.
Then you can connect it to the wizzard with the usual 0000 pin.
Did it with mine and it works.
Cheers,
Drifter
thanks for reply, but pairing not the problem
Hello, they paired just fine with the wizard, but how do I tell the wizard to play the audio through the headphones and not the internal speaker?
Drifter, you the man!!!
Mine is working beautifully now, your instruction to wait for red light to flash solved the problem.
Thanx
totally confused now???
Hello again, They are paired, but there is nothing listed in "Services to use from this device" List, is there some software or driver I need to install? is there some menu choice I need to select somewere. Please help.
jappetto,
I am also using the cingular ROM, all I did to make them work was to follow Drifter's example on pairing them. Once they were paired it just worked straight off any audio player that I used, eg Mort player or windows media player, WM allows me to forward tracks as well.
I really dont know why you are having trouble, try removing all bluetooth paired devices from your phone and pair the headphones first. This may help
Still confused
"cab update en" sounds like software I need to download. am I using the wrong rom?
tried deleting all and pairing headphones first.
sees them but there is no services listed to use. how do you tell media player to play through headphones? does it happen automatically when you turn yours on? or is there a button or command I am missing?
read all about the A2DP update in the Tornado forum as well as the A2DP threads here before you start to use your headsets. You will need A2DP to make these awsome HP headphones work to their fullest abilities.
Japetto,
I am using this ROM:
ftp://xda:[email protected]_RUU_WIZARD_217_AKU2_WWE_CF2_A2DP.exe
It has A2DP settings configured already.
When you pair the headphones with this ROM installed, make sure your volume is not on silent on phone (should adjust automatically) when using headphones. If you are using WM player and cannot hear sound through headphones, press round connect button between the volume and track forward/reverse buttons ( the same one used to pair the headphones). this should establish a link with the headphones and start working.
No other software/drivers are needed to make them work.
Hope this helps.
ive got the normal tmobile uk rom...would it work??
what its the quality of sound from the headphones...when compared to the headphones given with the MDA Vario
also could someone direct me to a link where i can buy them from
Thanks
I'll Try it
thank you HasC
SBouri,
No, you need to change ROM so that it is A2DP compliant, at present t-mobile have no ROMS for this, mine was originally T-mobile ROM.
The quality of the headphones are fantastic, they are better than vario supplied ones because they are wireless and I have had the phone upstairs and was able to listen from kitchen downstairs, occasionally there was some interference, but close range, worked seamlessly for me.
HasC, fair enough mate..ermm i'd rather not upgrade my rom as i dont want to take any risks which will turn it into a brick
i am a techi but the phone doesnt give problems as other people post about..so id rather just keep the current t mobile rom
thanks for the reply though

You don't ned to upgrade your rom to get your stock Tmobile MDA to work with BT stereo headsets!
Just install the A2DP hack.cab found in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=48535&highlight=a2dp and your stereo headset should show all options for Handsfree, Headset and Wireless Stereo.
I have not upgraded my rom, as I agree with SBour, I *can* do it but it's not worth it to me just yet....
I am using the stock Tmobile Rom, the A2DP hack and I-Tech Clip s35 stereo headset. The sound is lound and crystal clear.
Jaidnoire, nice one mate, will give it a go and ill order the headphones asap...i found a site through kelkoo for £48...is that cheap compared to any other sites you may know of?
Can anyone tell me what the battery life is on the Motorola HT820? As i manily want to listen to MP3s of my Vario
The HT820 manual claims 14 hours for music listening or 17 hours talk time.
I have a T-Mobile MDA with their latest 2.26.10.2 WWE ROM and a stereo headset made by Philips called, VOX340.
Without doing any modifications to registry I was able to hear WMA files in stereo from Widows Media Player and even the foward/rewind functions worked via AVRCP. However, the AVRCP connection only woked once and I can't get it back. I am still hearing stereo, but no longer forward/rewind functionality.
Anyone know how I can get it back again?
I'd appreciate any help.
Howard
Update
AVRCP was working again after I recycled power, then after a while it stops working.
Is that happening to anyone else?
Howard
Did a phone call or a notification come in while you were listening to music?
I think that sometimes messes up AVRCP.

Even after resetting the PPC and switching off / on the headsphones, NOT starting any other program on your PDA (just listening to music)?
The same happened to me several times but always because of for example starting other apps.
BTW, ever thought of installing the Widcomm BT stack on your PPC?
Thank you all for your input. I'll look for all these potential causes today.
Also, I need some guidance to install Widcomm BT stack.

Hi guys,
Ditched Orange and went to o2, just for their version of the Polaris!
(Also got fed up with Oranges' delays in bringing out decent phones, and their belief that the future of mobile devices is a clunky keyboard!).
Set up my orbit2 blue tooth with my BT stereo in the car... first time round, hands free worked fine, BT Audio worked too.
Coming back for the drive home in the evening, hands free still works fine, but the BT Audio is nowhere to be seen - no BTA icon on stereo, and playing music through WMP just comes out the handset.
So...
1) Anyone know why / fix?
2) Any Widcomm stack available for the Polaris / orbit 2 yet?
While i'm here...
Anyone know why WMP wont let me add mp3's stored on storageCard\music to the WMP library?
Thanks...

Open the BT menu and tap and hold your BT car stereo.
Then select "Set as Wireless Stereo" and it will connect using A2DP.
While on certain ROMS you need to repeat this procedure there are others where you don't.

That's great - works like a charm!
Sound quality's great too - thanks for your help mate
Hi!
I'm not sure if this is the right forum, so if I am wring, please let me know where to post it.
I would like to use my older smartphone (an HTC touch diamond 1) as an mp3 player for my daughter. She has hearing aids capable of using bluetooth, the device actually receiving bluetooth is known as "Oticon Streamer".
I tried installing A2DP toggler, the program seems to work in general (I can connect to the Oticon Streamer, it is recognized as bluetooth headset, I can only switch A2DP on while streamer is actually on and connected), but eventually it does not work: sound comes always and only through the speakers. For playing music (mostly mp3) I am using mort player.
Do I need special software for playing music files when I want to send them to A2DP or is there something I could try to make it working?
Any ideas are appreciated! Thanks!
You don't need any 3rd-party add-on/SW to get bluetooth working for A2DP. The MS bluetooth stack on WM6.1 on HTC diamond1 should have everything you need. I have the same HTC phone and I also use BT stereo headsets which supports A2DP. Just pair the hearing aids if it supports A2DP.
