Did (a little) searching and couldn't find anything definitive.
Is it possible to use the X01HT as a modem for my laptop over bluetooth or usb using the stock, post Dec.2 ROM from Softbank?
Device Info:
ROM version: 1.33.761.5
ROM date: 11/10/06
Radio version: 1.14.01.10
Protocol version 32.50.7018.00H
If it's not possible, is there anything I can do, like trying to burn a new ROM etc.?
Thanks very much!

Simply put, no.
The X01HT has a lot of features crippled by Softbank. One of it is bluetooth.
There is the Widcomm stack for Hermes development thread that possibly could fix the limitation, but its not finished yet. I have played with it, but not tired modem.

Is there any information about what Softbank has done to cripple this capability? Google has only shown me that other people are annoyed that it isn't working as a modem. I can't find much about why.
And another question - would burning a new ROM, WM6 or some such, make the X01HT function as a bluetooth modem?
It should...

Hello all,
I have an XDA IIi from O2 UK, and I recently purchased a game called Quartz 2 from Elements Interactive BV; I bought two copies, one for my fiancee's P900 and one for my XDA IIi, as it has a multiplayer option that works over both TCP/IP and bluetooth. Or so they claim... I just could not get the game to play nicely with bluetooth, whenever I tried to join or host a game via bluetooth, it instantly failed, whereas it worked fine on the P900. So I emailed tech support to see what they had to say...
Unfortunately, Bluetooth isn't able to work properly on all windows
mobile devices.
This is because there are 2 "Bluetooth stacks" for windows mobile: one
of them is made by Microsoft and one of them is made by Broadcom. It
depends on the device which one is installed (only one of them can be
installed at the same time which is done by the manufacturer of your
product). Because of some licensing issues, we're only able to support
one of the stacks.
Your windows mobile device probably uses the Broadcom stack, the one
that isn't supported by the game. We're sorry to say this, but there
isn't much we can do about this (unless Broadcom change their licensing
terms). Your UIQ device however, is able to work properly because
Symbian doesn't have these issues.
I hope this clears it all up. If there are more questions, please let me
know.

My XDA IIi runs (according to the Bluetooth Settings/control panel) BT-PPC/PE Version 1.0.0 Build 3900, with the copyright notice belonging to Broadcom. Doh!
So, questions:
Is there any way to run the Microsoft bluetooth stack on the XDA IIi? If so, are there any problems created by doing so?
Does anybody know what the "licensing issues" are? I have emailed them to ask but had no reply as of yet.
And this may seem like a silly question, but the XDA IIi *is* an Alpine (which is an updated Himalaya?), right? Are the XDA III and XDA IIi distinct models? The HTC_Blueangel wiki page mentions a German XDA III, and the forum index mentions an XDA III in the Blue Angel forum description. I just want to be clear on this
In case it's any use, the Device Information control panel contains the following.
ROM version: 1.10.00 WWE
ROM date: 12/24/04
Radio version: 1.00.00
Protocol version: 1337.39 (my protocol is elite!)
ExtROM version: 1.10.124 WWE
Model No.: PH10C
Are there any updates I'm missing/should have installed?
Thanks!
No-one's replied as yet I see, so I'll be the bearer of bad news, citlee. You have the most up-to-date BT stack and ROM. Hopefully, we'll be getting a ROM update soon, but don't expect it to change from Broadcom anytime soon.
As far as naming's go, yes it's called an Alpine (even though xda-developers seem to want to call it a Andes). I don't think you can run a MS BT stack on your device either.
Sorry to be the one to tell you..,.
Kevin
Oh ... ... bugger
Thanks for replying, at least now I know I don't have to go hunting for updates and stuff.
So the device is an Alpine, but here it's referred to as an Andes, which is an updated Himalaya? How is it different from the Himalaya? Will software (on this site, that is, not in general, for doing things end users aren't supposed to) for the XDA II/Himalaya work on this device?
Also, do you have any idea if Windows Mobile 2005 will function on this device? Of course, prior to installing it, it wouldn't be a bad idea to see what the differences/(dis)advantages of 2005 over 2003SE are...
I'm sorry to tell you this but, Windows Mobile 2005 will not work on the XDAIIi, the upgrade of windows mobile was designed to work only with the ROM version of the himalaya. the ROM that the new XDA IIi has is different, so there is no upgrade for it now, I have one XDA IIi also, but do not worry about it becuase it will just take some time untill microsoft will force all the PDA companies to include its upgrade on their devices, it's been always like this.

I have upgraded to the new O2 Rom 169 and all seemed ok, until I started to install my bluetooth head set.
Since I upgraded my radio ROM to 1.03 I have lost the connections to my headset.
Prior to the upgrade it worked perfectly, now the recieve functions just will not work.
I have down graded to the radio 1.00 ROM but the same thing is happening. So the upgrade seems to have corrupted something more important.
Can anyone help here?
Downgrade to previous ROM
I have now downgraded to the previous ROM 1.11.162WWE, and that seems to have solved the problem.
I have installed the Radio ROM update and that seems to work OK now, so I will stick to this for the moment, unless someone has any better ideas!
Hello,
I had the same problem. It seems, the old bluetooth software won't work with the new radio rom. I tried my bluetooth connection before restoring my old stuff from backup, and it's ok. I didn't have any serious things in my backup, so I reinstalled my software from install cd's - sorry, I had no time to figure out, wich software causes this issue, but hope this information will help you.
Z.
i also having problem with my bluetooth but I cant say the problem is from new radio ROM or others because i dont know the real cause. A message display and wrote
"Sorry! Bluetooth can no longer be used because the licence is expired"
"BDA ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff: Key:E3E534E19B3E8214C543A73C0A8B9A9074DD3B1753515CD8"
after that, bluetooth will off automatically.
I have found since the upgrade to the new radio, thanks PUG.
That my Handsfree and Headset Bluetooth issues have lessened.
A few little glitches but will be on the outlook for another patch or upgrade in the future :roll:
Hmm,
I have radio 1.00.00 version with t he original Asia ROM and something funny has happened:
Since the beginning, I successfully connected to Logitech and Hello II BlueT headsets + a generic car BT handsfree.
I had to perform a hard reset after one of my progs messed the registry and reinstall everything (less the troublesome prog <g>).
Since then, the BlueT handsfree does not work properly: I hear the ring but there is no volume control from the headset and I hear nothing + mike does not work. The rest of the BT conections work flawlessly, except for some rare disconnects from my BlueT RBT-2001 GPS.
The story in this thread is not encouraging but one thing is clear - the BT problems that I have are with the original radio and EROM and not after an upgrade. I have no clue what all this means except for the fact that tere is something quite problematic w/ the Xda IIi BT connectivity that I didn't have w/ any of my previous PDAs.
I thought to u/g the radio version only but decided to go for a full u/g (less the O2 stuff), hoping that my BT problems will go away.
Please correct me if I'm wrong - should I go ahead with the PUG O2-less upgrade or should I keep the old (but clearly buggy) versions?
Maybe all the problems that we have are connected to specific manufacturing HTC batches? Has anyone researched this? Is there any info correlating between problems and Xda IIi serial numbers?
Best regrads,
Al
My brother bought me a MDA Pro from Hong Kong just recently. I'm loving the device so far, except there are a few things I've realized about the device that are rather discomforting. With help from some posts from very smart and friendly posters on this forum, I've managed to "get around" some issues that I've had (adding the BT Icon on Today's screen, for instance -- Thanks, Buzz!), but there are a few concerns I still have left that I was wondering you guys could help me with. So here goes:
1. Although I am getting used to the German "QWERTZ" Keyboard, I would like to "fix" some of the Fn mappings. Is there a utility (free, non-free, whatever) that I could use to remap those combinations?
2. The wireless manager does not display any color to indicate weather a service is turned on or off as shown in the attachment. The "All Off" button also cannot be selected. Is there a way to "activate" them?
3. I'm unable to pair the phone with my Jabra 250 over bluetooth. The same headset works fine with my XDA IIs, so its not the headset. The phone can't even detect the headset. Its pretty basic stuff, so I don't think I'm doing anything wrong. Any pointers to debug this sort of thing?
Thanks, any pointers to any/all of the above will be appreciated!
FWIW, I found the following page on t-mobile germany's website that lists english manuals, including ROM upgrades for the MDA Pro.
https://after-sales-service.t-mobile.de/eg_online/t-mobile/t_mda_pro.htm
I have the following ROM currently installed on my device:
ROM version: 1.13.69 WWE
ROM date: 10/12/05
Radio version: 1.04.02
Protocol version: 42.37.P8
ExtROM version: 1.13.162 WWE
My question is: has anyone attampted upgrading their MDA Pro with the 12/2005 upgrade found on their site? If so, I'd like to know their opinion if its worth doing the upgrade. I'm very tempted to do the upgrade, hoping the new ROM would fix some of the issues I mentioned above.
OK, after several hours of reading various posts on this site, I've learnt a little more about my device. Apparently, I have a Dopod 900 ROM installed on my universal (The Dopod Logo during startup concurs that, too )
Anyhow, I was wondering if any kind soul here could post their WirelessMgr.exe and WirelessMgr_Service.dll from the \Windows folder on their Universal? I could try to replace mine with someone else's to see if that helps at all.
[fixed thread's subject appropriately]
All those views and no replies?
these are from a O2 ROM.
Thanks a lot, dude! I'll replace mine with these when I get home tonight.
bleh... forgot to mention.... backup ur originals just incase
Hi,
I've just been reading for the last 4 hours, searching for a solution to my problem of the Hermes not working with my bluetooth nokia car kit.
Specifically, I'm getting serious breakup in areas with perfect reception.
People on the other end of the connection are hearing serious ghosting of their and my voice. Other times, the phone is crystal clear.
The phone doesn't seem to be losing sync and has always paired as soon as I get in the car and turn it on.
I bought this as a business tool and at the moment it isn't worth squat to me.
I have read as much as I can and implore someone to tell me if this issue can be fixed, and if so, point me in the direction of what I need to upgrade without all the acronyms. And yes I have read the wiki
Below are my spec on the unit.
Thanks in advance.
ROM; 1.31.305.2
Rom Date: 09/08/06
Radio Version: 1.38.30.10
Protocol: 32.71.7020.12h
Extrom: 1.31.305.106
Anyone have any thoughts?
i have the same problem with my dopod d810 and the nokia car kit. It connects fine over bluetooth and I can hear everyone else clearly, but no-one else can hear me properly - mainly the ghosting problems and static.
I've been looking at the following registry entries, but have not had any luck as yet..
HKCU\controlpanel|AudioAdvContrl
And as yet have had no luck...
I'll keep trying

Have you tried this software? it has additional support for the nokia HS-12W and a 30 day trial.
http://www.jetwaremobile.com
worked for my bmw x5 BT when nothing else would.
Other options would be to upgrade the radio to 1.40 and/or OS to one of the wm6 variants excluding black 3.0 and 3.1
i noticed big hands free improvements with the BT stack on wm6, to the point where I didn't need jetware anymore.
good luck!

Ford's probably using stereo bluetooth for its connection. You need to enable your phone with A2DP first, then do the pairing. I have had good luck with the Tornado version of A2DP for the Wizard, but only after I overclocked my phone's processor, and made some minor adjustments to the data rates at a registry level.
If you're a noob, you need to do a LOT of reading before trying this, or you'll lose your ability to generate sound altogether. Not as dramatic as bricking your phone, but makes it almost as useless...
Just search these boards, the answers are here. Search.
...and welcome to the XDA Dev boards!

Normally, this is where I say, "Start a new thread, for this new question, because nobody is going to open this thread to answer that question."
However, you've asked a question that usually results in the person asking being lambasted (read: flamed) for asking a question that is, in most cases, a matter of total opinion. As has been said many times before, about this subject:
What's best for you isn't what's best for (nearly) anyone else.

So....that said, I recommend you look at the Wizard Mobile 6 boards, read the Wizard wiki THOROUGHLY, and know your phone very well before you even consider trying to load a cooked ROM, or you will have an expensive paperweight instead of an incredibly useful tool.
Whatever you do, please do not post a question like "What's the best ROM for me?" because only YOU can answer that question, and only after you educate yourself to what's possible, and what your specific needs are.
If you just want to sync your phone to your car, then stick with the A2DP upgrade, and an overclock (OMAPCLOCK via SmartsKey is my preferred method of overclocking). That's my advice, free of charge.
Could anyone help me find a A2DP upgrade. I have honestly hunted, but I am getting confused...
Tried Torbado A2DP without success. I run a 02 Mini S

Hi
I have got Stereo headset now showing, but its greyed out for the radio device?
Anyone got any ideas?

I would highly recommend looking at JETWare BT Extenstion. It adds a lot of functionality that MS left out of the BT stack.

Hi,
Got it working....
With other phones they were pairing automatically. If you search from the radio
Phone >menu then search, after a long wait it finally pairs...
Installed http://www.jetwaremobile.com/ which may have helped...
Thanks for everyones help.
