Hi All,
Ive tried the a2dp fix and it seems to have improved things. I then tried the widcomm stack and the sound was much much better except that i lost avrcp in pocketplayer and i keep gettings skips ever minute or so....and well...im frustrated!
Has the a2dp received an overhaul in wm6 and is it worth upgrading to just for the [improved i hope!] a2dp?
Please let me know as i am still running wm5.
Thanks,
G
PS- im using the moto ht820 on the imate jasjam[herm100]

I just strated using the A2DP and the quality sucks still in WM6 even with the quailty hacks to the registry. I am going to try the Widcom stack on it and see if it is better. But to answer your ? NO the WM6 BT for A2DP still sucks.
Thanks for the info dude...well thats really depressing to hear
The widcomm stack is awesome but i keep getting random stutters in the music so until someone can fix that a complete move to widcomm wont be possible. The good thing though is that you can use both the standard stack and the widcomm stack without having to uninstall/reinstall stuff so you can shift between the two[just enable and do a soft reset]
PLEASE SOMEONE FIX THE STUTTERING IN THE WIDCOMM STACK!!

Dear all,
I know that Microsoft is developing WM5 AKU2 which will include A2DP protocol; however I just can't wait for it. I saw many BT providers like Widcomm, BlueSoleil had released the A2DP stack. How can I know the BT version used on wizzard, so I can try those stacks. Many thanks in advance.
Michael
unfortunaitly those will not work on wm5, they only work on wm2003.
(have tried)
if you go into bluetooth settings you will only have three buttons at the moment, "Mode,Devices,COM Ports" you have got bt v1.2
one thing to watch out for also, is that some of the new bt headset's with a2dp with not work with voice dial, you can answer or hangup from headset, but you have to dial from the phone.
I think this is because the headset is able to be used for AVRCP (Audio Video Remote Control Profile).
(but i may be wrong)

Thanks! I tried too. Need to hard rest to bring it back.
Does this mean that we just can't do anything but waiting for MS? That's bad.
Michael
yep or someone else to do it first
I have an O2 XDA Mini S (Wizard) and have just purchased a pair of Motorola HT820 Bluetooth headphones. I have paired the two; however, I only get the Hands Free service (which works) but NO Wireless Audio. I have seen a lot about A2DP Hacks to get these devices working correctly, but shouldn’t the BT headset offer a wireless stereo/high quality/A2DP profile when you pair them?
Is the ASDP Hack the only way to get Wireless Stereo?
Any help with this problem would be very much appreciated.
Thanks, Harold Clements
You have not provided enough information for anyone to help you.
Some Roms have A2DP working without any hack.
To be truthful, I know very little about what I am trying to do. All I know is that I can’t get the music side of the Motorola headset working.
As I said in my previous post: I have an O2 XDA Mini S (Wizard) and have just purchased a pair of Motorola HT820 Bluetooth headphones. The two paired but I only get the Hands Free service but NO Wireless Audio. I clicked on Motorola HT820 and then went ‘Refresh’ and up popped ‘Headset’ so I ticked that and saved. I then clicked (and held) on Motorola HT820. The options that I get are Edit – Delete – Set as Hands Free. I think I should also have ‘Set as Wireless Stereo’ but I don’t.
I have read about the ‘hacks’ (zoad2p.cab, Tornado asdp, AKU2.6) but I am a) unsure if this is a solution to my problem, and b) what a hack is and why is it needed?
I just really want to know how to fix my problem.
Thanks for your help,
Harold Clements
Would you be willing to try a cab that i made? I dont have a wizard to test on and you seem to have the perfect requirements in which i need to test. If you are willing to try this cab would you please PM me your email address???
This cab is a variation of the zoA2DP and an idle thread process (which works great on the hermes)
Also you will need A2DP to listen to wireless Bluetooth stereo... most provider roms do not have this feature, most cooked roms do..
Also, in addition to the MS BT stack, you'll want to give a try to the Widcomm BT stack. With eit has its share of problems, it delivers much superior sound quality compared to the MS BT stack and its CPU usage is less that that of the MS stack.
Thanks very much for your replies guys. The thing is I am new to this and I don’t really understand.
Correct me if I am wrong but if the Motorola HT820 Bluetooth headphones are compatible with my mobile device (as documented) then surly it should work without much hardship?

they are definitely compaitable with your phone, as a headset for taking calls.. but not as a stereo headphones without A2DP
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.

Does ne1 have a verdict on this?
I've applied all the reg fixes and my Moto HT820 still sounds like a tiny radio.
Because of this, I haven't used it much since I got the 8525.
This is the same BT headphones I used for my previous HP 6515.
Ehh, those days, I bragged about the superior wireless quality of a2dp.
I like to get that back if I can.
Does ne1 know how ?
Maybe try the HTweakC posted here on xda. It has a tweak for stereo bluetooth sound. I tried it, and thought it really improved the sound. I was having lots of problems with my 8525 before HTweakC, and my battery life went down the toilet immediately after installing HTweakC. I eventually hard-booted.
Other people have reported that it works well. I'll try again after I get my phone re-loaded and backed-up....

Install the Widcomm BT stack. Unfrotunately, many headsets are just not compatible with the MS A2DP implementation, resulting in sub-par quality. The Moto seems to be one of them.

I've been following that thread but it looks like it still is unstable for now. Since I use my phone for my job as well, I can't risk it.
Does ne1 know why the a2dp quality is so much better on my previous 8125?
Is it a different stack?
Thanks.

I read through that entire thread and couldn't find a download link for the Widcomm stack...little help?
Hi,
I have been all around this forum and tried all the different kinds of things to fix the a2dp. I have installed the cabs, tried AKU rom, tried the widcomm stack.
The only thing with somewhat success was using the widcomm stack, which improved the quality to a reasonable degree, but then my headset will not work with calls. Call audio still comes through the phone instead of the headset.
Has anyone been successful in making the headset work without the hiss, or to make the widcomm stack work with calls and with music? And maybe there are settings u can change for widcomm like there were for the MS stack to make the hiss go away?..
I don't know what to do, can someone share their experience and how they got their HT820 and 8125 working with good sound quality (no hissing)
Thanks for your help,
Riley
same problem
Yes, I have the same problem with the hissing sound! I got a Moto HT820 running with all the features it has but it souds awful. Especially the clanking snare drum in some music tracks crack my ears .
I have installed the tornado_a2dp.cab from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=263745. Most in that thread don't complain about the sound. Further more they say it's great. What can I do?
Have QTek GER, CE2.18.7, ExtRom 2.18, Radio 2.07.10 on my device.
You see my English is exclusively school made I hope you understand me out there.
Anyone have an idea or solve the problem? Maybe another .cab or some with better sound?
It has everything to do with the headset you're using.
I used the tornado hack and didn't complain about sound at all because my A2DP headsets sound great! In fact, as good if not better than wired speakers...
Problem is, I later tried an i.tech R35, and it sounded awful... suddenly there's a hiss and ping distortion that wasn't there on my other A2DP headsets, yet they sound great when paired with a nokia phone or my PC for music.
Apparently, there is an incompatibility between MS A2DP and certain headset implementations. Something to do with the compression... anyway, no amount of tweaking has helped yet. We need someone at MS to re-write the compression codec, and that simply hasn't happened. Since some headsets DO work fine, I believe Microsoft has denied that there is a problem!
