Hi Guys,
I was wondering if you could answer my questions, I have an XDA II with the latest O2 Rom, i also have a Nokia HS-4W bluetooth headset, i wanted to know if it was possible to be able to listen to mp3 or my tomtom Instructions through my bluetooth headset? I love my XDA II but i would love it even more if this was possible, i am suprised O2 didnt include this in their new ROM.
I would appreciate any advice or any URL's that show you can this can be done,
As always thanks in advanced
Kind Regards
nya
Hi,
I don't want to spoil your XDAII experience, but unfortunatley that is not possible... yet...
Huge steps have been made by several good and experienced users on this regard, but there's still a long way to go...
Please use the Search feature, because there are several places in this excelent forum that discuss this and similar issues... :wink:
Good luck!

Its the biggest disappointment with the xda 2, I thought I would be able to use bluetooth headset dialling, music etc but it seems it is beyond the capability of those that write the firmware/software to make this possible. I have no idea why this should be as many phones and pda's have this capability.
Thank you for your reply .... its ashame this is not possible...
with the right bluetooth stack it would be possible not in cd quality because of the speed of bluetooth but pretty good anyway
otherwise you could use something like this

do you know where i could get the right Bluetooth Stack from ?
with the headset i linked to you dont need a new bluetooth stack
i dont think the current vidcomm bluetooth stack support A2DP which is required for at least stereo sound
this upcomming stack looks like it will support it

Thanks for your help Rudegar, much appreciated.
I'm looking for a way to redirect my TomTom voice instructions from my MDA Vario through my Parrat CK3300 BT carkit sounding on my car-speakersystem by using the bluetooth stack. Now Parrot claims this isn't possible due to a phone limitation. I agree and think it's shortage of Microsoft WM5. Now I've looked up some info about Bluetooth Audio Distribution and found the following:
Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP)
AKU 2.0 for Windows Mobile 5.0 (for both, Smartphone and Pocket PC), which is expected to be released early next year (2006), will also includes support for the Bluetooth Advanced Audio Distribution Profile profile which is designed to transfer a stereo audio stream like music from the device to a headset or car radio.
A2DP is already implemented into the Samsung SGH-i300 Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition Smartphone, however this isn't based on Microsoft's A2DP implementation but Samsung added it itself.
(Refer to http://www.theunwired.net/?itemid=2779 for more info concerning this subject.)
So if this article is based on true facts, it means that Microsoft will soon release a patch for all WM5 based devices, which enables them to receive all audio (e.g. TomTom voice instructions) through the bluetooth stack.
Somebody knows more about this subject and if it's true that after having AKU 2.0 installed, you can hear the navigation instructions through your carkit or headset?
Many thanks,
Youri Festen
there is a facility on this forum that will allow you to switch audio to and from the bluetooth, not high quality or stereo but standard quality.
There is ?
Been loking around in the threads for quite a while, but didn't find a replicatable solution...
Here you go
Tried all kind of files, but no go...
All i want is ALL audio over the Carkit (Supertooth2). That is TomTom + Phone.
I don't care if i have to trun of the carkit to return audio to the phone. But i don't want to have to reset or something.
I have a XDA (Himalaya) btw. Still with Rom 1.72 00WWE 15/03/2004 (Ext Rom 1.72.125)

whoa it worked
i know im reaching here, but really wanted to try to stream to the new cingular 2125 (aka hct). downloaded and ran the app with my iphono steroe headphones (luv em), got intresting results.
it worked. ran the app, pushed the button on the headphones, got music. call came in, answered (with auto answer) talked, and on hangup it went back to music. however, if i ran another app on the phone such as voice tag in contacts to initiate a call, it brought in the call, but on hangup went back to the speaker. had to run the toggle on again to get headphones working, not elegant - always want more - but im a happy guy til a2dp comes out for mobile 5. thanks!

Try reading and understanding what you read before posting. See the post of dalamario that is the BTAudio on/off tool !
Is this goingt to be anter shout and wild guesses about what file or tool should "really"work ?
I tried all so called "easy" fixes, hell, i've even got a whole dump of my registry, cut through all the BT + Audio and BT + Headset threads, here and on PDAPhonehome, Howardsforum, and the reduced-to-user-bla-bla on pocketPC-club.nl.
And still zilch.....
Ow, and don't think i'm someone who wants easy answers... Think again, i've been around quite a while on PPC forums and the lot....
What i do want/like is usefull answers ans clues on how this BT and Audio stuff works, beut even after reading some on MSDN i can't find a solution yet....
That's why i jumped in on this thread, i'm not going to reinvent the wheel if some allready has the solution: Tomtom and Phone audio over BT
So i'll stop writing now, and continiu searschin for a solution... There must be one...
Sorry mr high horse, wont bother trying to help next time just in case i might not be right, but then if everyone did that no one would answer anything.
The Wizard can do system Audio over bluetooth.
This has been proved with the easy hack that allows you to activiate voice dial using a BT headset.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=29837
MS Voice Command leaves the Audio Gateway open after initialising, whilst Voice Dialler closes it.
So maybe try installing Voice Command and doing the hack in the above referenced thread, and then see if you can launch Voice command from your car kit. This should leve the gateway open and allow all system sounds to stream to your BT kit until you hit the button again.

Just a little patience. Test version of Qtek 9100 ROM with A2DP already exists. It works with I-Phono bt-stereo, for example. So I think it will be released by March.

Do you think that when it works with I-Phono, it will also offer us the navigation voice instructions through BT-headsets or carkits? Hope so!
Can't test it with car navigator.
if audio streaming is enabled, i would have thought you should be able to hear navigation commands.
i have used the bt audio switch that started this thread to hear tomtom commands through my headset, and it works fine.
saves me explaining to my 84 year old dad why yoda is giving me directions :lol:

It's nice.... I'd really like Tomtom over my carkit... Ohh, the XDA was so much easyer just soldered a Ground and Left/Right channnel into my TomTom/Leadtec connector, and plugged it in to my JVC Front-in line...
I bought the Qtec 2020 because BT seemd so much easyer
Does anyone know whether its possible for Stereo sound with the version of Bluetooth on the JasJar?
It has Bluetooth version 1.2, someone told me that Stereo was only supported in Bluetooth version 2.0.
However, after some investigation I now think that this is actually not version specific, but rather whether the OS supports A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile). WM5 does support A2DP.
So, I think that it will actually work on the Jasjar, my question is, has anyone tried it and can confirm that it does work? WHat headsets are you using?
Sorry guys, currently bluetooth v1.1, not v1.2 as I stated earlier..
New ROM should be out soon for Universal that will allow this - it's currently in testing right now, but should be out before March.
So to answer your question: No, not yet, but soon.
That soon is six months now.......
We are waiting for Win CE update since forever. It has not chnaged since the phone started shipping (see the build numbers)
Only German roms seem to have been updated - but whats the use - we dont understand German.
Smile for buying a beta phone.
Naw.. last year they said it was coming in 2006. This year theyve been saying its coming in March since January. So as long as it really does come out in March theyll have kept to their word.
Any news? :/ i want some damn stereo
I thought that upgrading the radio stack to 1.0.6 (or I believe 1.0.8 is now available at Buzz's site) allowed you to use stereo Bluetooth? I'm sure I saw it in a thread here somewhere....
Edit: Sorry, must've been dreaming. Can't find anything that comes close to backing this up!
XXXXXXX,
Thank you for your email.
The new AKU-2 service pack released by Microsoft is currently being tested by o2, we currently have enough testers testing this service but thanks for your interest.
Unfortunately we have no timescales when this will be available to our customers, I would recommend periodically checking our XDA Exec website at http://www.my-xda.com/xdaexec_soft.html for more information.
If you have any further problems, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

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!
Hi,

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

All,
Does anybody have any fixes regarding the sound quality when using Bluetooth A2DP protocol? I use my Evo to mate with a Bluetooth receiver so I can listen to Rhapsody over my home stereo. The sound quality is flat. The high frequencies are not present. It sounds like a bad quality MP3. I know that its the A2DP causing the quality issue as directly connection (through 3.5 jack) is awsome.
The Apple 3GS A2DP sound quality was awsome. I am not sure why the Evo is not sounding good. Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks,
Lance
use the cyanogen rom--this uses a bitpool of 53 giving you the best bluetooth quality possible. the stock/sprint/htc bluetooth drivers are set for a bitpool of 32
Is there any other ROM that has the bit pool set to 53?
Lance
Nope all Sense roms use HTC's ****ty low bitpool setting. This is why I'm running CM as well it's the only rom I can A2DP to my Sony Head unit and get good audio. I attempted to contact HTC about this issue here's the juicy details
Here's my initial question
I have terrible static when streaming music over A2DP on my HTC EVO to my sony mex-bt2800 car radio. If I use CyanogenMod 6.0 which uses a open source bluetooth stack my A2DP is crystal clear to my radio. I have used logcat to look at whats going on I dont know if its a bitrate problem or a bitpool problem or if my radio isn't in your acoustic database.

Here's the response I received
Although the android software has been updated to be more compatible with Bluetooth headsets and car kits. Most of the time a Bluetooth manufacturer will have a list on there website stating devices they have found compatible, but this is not always the case. From the information on your issue it seems that your device is simply not fully compatible. The only thing we would be able to recommend would be to try another headset.
Then my response back
I would like an Engineer to read my question if possible since I don't think you fully grasp what I'm saying here. First My EVO's Bluetooth A2DP WORKS 100% clearly when using a Open Source ROM which implements Bluez Bluetooth stack http://www.bluez.org/
When I run your Sense UI ROM the Stock ROM you release which uses your own proprietary Bluetooth Stack I get static in the background so you cant really say its my phone now can you? Its your implementation that's not working properly. I'm not about to try every car stereo till I find one that works with the EVO when I know my stereo can work perfectly with my phone when using a properly coded open source Bluetooth stack.
Here is some extra info from a logcat that shows how your Bluetooth makes a connection through A2DP and what I believe is too low of a bitrate or bitpool setting
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=708265&highlight=bluetooth+bitrate
PLEASE DON'T GIVE ME A ANSWER THAT YOU JUST READ FROM A SCRIPT. I would like a true response from someone who understands and can grasp my question fully like an engineer or a developer, when you give me a generic response of oh your Bluetooth headset isn't compatible keep buying new ones till you find one that works, that really makes me upset since you didn't even read my question it's a car stereo and there not cheap.
I await your educated answer.
And there final bull**** reply
We apologies for any inconvenience you may be experiencing. We will document your concern for review in development of our upcoming devices and future software updates. The situation is still an incompatibility with our device and your car kit weather on software or a hardware level. Unfortunately at this we have no further information beyond what has already been provided.

Well I commend you for trying. This is something that makes me want to tear my hair out so I would love to see this resolved as well.
good on ya mate.
anyone know how to get another bluetooth stack on stock rooted 2.2?
I asked Flipz a while ago but I don't think he's looking into it. I also asked Netarchy he said he would look into it sometime but that i shouldn't hold my breath since he hadn't even looked at the code yet. HTC has released the source for their Bluez implementation so all we need is a dev willing to look into adjusting the bitpool setting.
This is a HUGE problem. I am flashing CM6 right now. HTC I am very disappointed with you..
The cyanogen rom also has great dsp equalizer
CyanogenMod will also make you a tropical island than transform your EVO into a jet plane and take you there ;-)
But in all seriousness, yeah, CM6 has BT fixed. One of my friends nagged Cyanogen about it last month, and he patched it right away.
I wish somebody could help us by increasing the bitpool on the Bluetooth driver. The Evo would be so much more enjoyable (for me at least) if the sound quality was better thru A2DP.

It would be nice if there can be a patch of some sort...
Just an update today I got a call from HTC customer service since i gave a poor review of my experience on a survey they sent me. Talked in great detail about our problem with the Bluetooth stack told him about the bitpool setting how its 53 on CM and 35 on there roms. So hopefully on the next update well get a fix for the Stock Sense UI rom.
^^LMAO!!! dont blv the hype
I read that the CM6 ROM has this issue fixed. I have also read reports that the ROM email client doesn't support word wrapping (which I really do need). Can anybody confirm this?
Also,
Can anybody in ROM land please create a patch or an update to their ROM which increases the Bitpool to 53? I understand that the Bluetooth driver code has been released.
Thanks

That was a streaming issue, not a bitpool issue.
The BT audio was a lot better on my TP2 when I updated the registry bitpool to 48 from 32.
I wish they would fix it.
