theese registry keys can be the sotution!!
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand]
"LaunchAPEnable"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand]
"VoiceCmdDuration"=dword:99999
or use this cab, its the same!!
rom is the latest official wm6. how i check radio? oh cool, i'll try out that cab dude, and post here the results
not working bro. shudnt my pda restart after installing that cab? i installed in main memory, and i'm now using my headphones. still got the problem. your registry tweaked the voice commander, my problem is with the bluetooth. 0_o
as in, i listen to music using my bluetooth headset, i hear
EXAMPLE: BONJOVI'S ITS MY LIFE
Its my ..(no sound suddenly).........Now and never, i aint gonna live forever!
the sound is lost but the music is still playing
Getting the same problem with iTech R35 bluetooth stereo headphones and offical Dopod WM6 upgrade (ROM 3.00.707.17 / Radio 1.46.00.11).
The headphones were working fine for the last 6 months with decent sound quality after pairing. Ever since I upgraded to WM6, either the headphones or the phone are dropping the BT connection after random intervals of between 5 minutes - 30 minutes. i.e. the sound suddenly cuts off even though the PDA is still playing music and everything seems to still be connected ( the BT icon is still displayed in the taskbar). If I re-pair again, it comes back for a short while, but then always cuts off again
This is the exact same problem I have with my R35 and WM6. I have figured out a way to make it cut out on a song (a different format wma). if i just play mp3s it will start to skip and then cut out completely after a random time. So I think its WMP I tried different radios and it still doesn't work....
help us anyone!
I posted a thread but no one was able to help...

I don't think it's a WMP problem,since I generally don't use that app. It's dropping for me with Resco Pocket Radio and CorePlayer.
Getting fed up with Dopod firmware. First, it was the 'no-bass' problem with the previous ROM. Now, it's this problem...! Can't they just release firmware without MAJOR bugs in it?!
I don't want to suggest this but do you think it has something to do with the itech clips?
when i use my BT stereo headset (plantronics pulsar 260) the music stopped sometimes, like described above.
when i disconnect my headset, the music plays normally over the phone speaker. no problem at all.
i guess its just another bluetooth problem.
when my phone is in my right pocket, and the receiver of my BT-set is in my left pocket, my body is between them, it gives the same problem( i am on my ATB at the time, moving)
very strange.....and no, i dont have any metal in my body. ;-)
Hi,
I'm using Touch 1.2 U-Clip and I have the exact same problem. So it's not just with i-Tech. I hope someone will find a solution for this problem.
Think its the Bluetooth stack
I am having the exact same frustrating problem - after checking to see if it was a Dopod error (tried closing down everything else on the PPC, tried other wired headsets), I have come to the conclusion it is something in WM6 Bluetooth, as I did not have this problem in the previous WM5 on the same machine with the smae Blueant Stereo headphones - mind you with WM6, I have full function with the Media Player, that is I can pause, next track, etc, whereas I couldnt do this with the WM5 version. WM5 had a really annoying high pitched whine, otherwise worked a treat.
So, in short WM6 has fixed the whine, has brought full features to the headset, but skips (blanks) the songs. Just before each "blank" I have noticed that it sounds like the song slows up - much like an old tape player running our of battery.
Now, I have no idea how/where/who to fix this, so anybody with even half a clue, please let all of us know, this is getting quite maddening!

bump for the thread. and yea man, i have the same prob. its like a battery dead sound, as the song goes out of tune etc
a slightly different problem
i use the INDIGO LITE rom, and i use OMIZ 5110 stereo headset, and i dont have the skiping problems described here, however since upgrading to WM6 the sound quality is terrible, i feel like tori amos is singing in my bathroom (which if was true could be really great) but alas, its just crappy sound quality... i tried changing the registry BITPOOL to 58 and played with all the values there known to man (at least to THIS man) but nothing helps...
Going by the devices that have this 'dropping sound' problem, it seems to only be affecting A2DP stereo bluetooth headsets paired with WM6 Trinity devices. Or are regular bluetooth mono headsets affected as well?
Personally havent paired a mono headset, but the problem I am having is definitely a stereo one! Any solution as opposed to taking to the machine with an axe?
Anyone found a solution yet?????? Please!!!!
I am also having the same sound dropping problems.
I have the same problem as well. I have just upgraded my rom to official WM6 rom. I'm using iTech Clip Radio.
After upgrading from WM 2003SE I have not been able to use my BT stereo headsets. I have both a Motorola S9 and a Jensen WBT212. The music from audio manager or WMP will start but then it will become choppy as if the connection is going on and off every second. Didn't have this issue with WM 2003SE. When used as a handsfree headset there is no issue. I also noticed the elapsed time of the song in progress is also erratic. This happens to both media players. When the BT stereo headsets are not used both players play normally. Anyone else having this issue? Any ideas or resolution would be greatly appreciated.
Device : Siemens SX66(WM6)
ROM Version : 5.60.00 WWE
ROM Date : 03/02/05
Radio Version : 1.15.00
Protocol Version : 1337.45
I finally got the bluetooth headset to work by installing the Helmi BT CAB for WM5 I found in the WM% forum. It is kind of strange now that it seems l;ike there are two BT connection managers but I can now get the headsets to coneect properly and the media players seem to be working properly too.

Hi I have that weird skipping problem with my HT 820 motorola stereo BT It's not really bad but it shouldn't skip I think. could you send my a link to that cab? any help appreciated.
Thanks Gyurma
BA WM5 Broadcom 1.7.1 Build 3400 Stack (Test) is the title of the thread.
which one?
thank you,but I found it,but there are several patches and stuff over there one of which (BTStack.zip) I do not know how to install which one did you use?

I got my new BT headphones yesterday. Charged them all day. I did the pairing thing last night. They worked great. Fantastic. The audio was crisp and clear. I was able to answer the phone with them, and again over the phone the audio was great on both ends. But it's like that poem about the girl with the curl. When they're good, they're very, very good. But when they're bad, they're horrid.
I've spent the entire day fighting with the BT. It seems that I can use the headphones only right after I pair them to the device. If I shut them down or turn off BT, when I go to restart, I get the choppiness that's so bad you can't even understand what song is playing. Resetting doesn't fix it. If I uninstall the headphones, turn off BT, and then do a hard reset and reinstall the headphones, I can use them again and everything is perfect. Until I turn them off, and then it starts all over again.
What is causing this?
I know I could just install the Broadcom BT. In fact, I did today. Twice. The problem with that is that I can only get it to recognize the headphones as a high quality audio device, not a headset phone device as well. I can install it as both, but they don't play nice together when I do, and if I install it only as the high quality audio, I can't answer the phone with it. (And yest, I did install all the patches and addons I found throughout that thread.)
Also, the Broadcom audio quality isn't as good as what I'm getting with the MS. Almost like the difference between an mp3 encoded at 96kbps, rather than a better quality.
I've tried the A2DPAudioFix. No help there that I could find.
Am I missing something?
Is it really a choice between crappy audio quality and no phone headset functions and having to hard reset my device over and over?
Same exact problem
Just upgraded the radio today to 1.15 and rom to WM6 last week - Bluetooth stereo headphones work ok for phone but not for music. Please can someone posts links as to where I need to look for various cabs - I've tried searching the forum but am not having much luck. Just happened to stumble on this thread.
Michelle
Stereo bluetooth works now
Well - my dh is sick of me working on this - but I know how BT stereo headphones that work w/ audio and the phone.
I am not even sure what I did other than install every cab I found and I'm sorry I don't have links-
RestartRadio.exe
BroadcomCorp_BT1.0.0.3900.cab
RestartRadio.exe
(still had problem w/ scratchy / stop / start)
then ran
ba_oem_audiogw.cab
and
BroadcomCorp_BTUpdatefor1.0.0.3500.cab
but I don't exactly the order of the last two - I am not even sure I ran the audiogw.cab - anyway, it was like magic - stereo sound minus static and skipping.
This is after flashing to wm6 and flashing the radio to 1.15 - and there was something else I tried - oh, I did change the registry to 64 from 128 I believe - the SD card entry.
Anyway, it's been a long day - now I'm off to figure out how to change the 72M B free in Program to give some to storage which only has 5.48 free.
Michelle
Mgrunk- Which SD card entry did you change? Could you kindly check to see what version of BT you are now on? Start/Settings/Connections/Bluetooth should get you to the version. I have mine working like I described earlier using the HELMI WM5 Broadcomm 1.7 cab, however still have periodic static and skipping. I am curious because my BT headsets worked well with WM2003SE and BroadcomCorp_BT1.0.0.3900.cab. Thanks in advance for any info.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329998&highlight=SDCARD+SDMemory_Class
is the link where I found it.
hklm/drivers/sdcard/clientdrivers/class/sdmemory_class is the entry and it was 128 and I changed it to 64 per another mesage - it did clear up the stuttering problem w/ AudioManager and WMP.
In regards to the version - now I have to BT icons on the Connections page - the About on the second icon says PE "Version 1.0.0 Build 3900"
But last night I deleted AudioManager and then had the horrible BT stereo headphone problems - I also noted while WMP was playing, it sucked the available program memory down to 5M - didn't matter what I started w/
I reinstalled AudioManager - no luck w/ BT, renistalled all the BT cabs
BroadcomCorp_BT1.0.0.3900
BroadcomCorp_BTUpdatefor1.0.0.3500 - oops looks like that probably was unecessary
HTCHeadset_AddOn
ba_oem_audiogw
But, I have persistant problems - if the ppc turns off - when it comes back on, BT icon shows on, but there's no BT. I have to go into CommManager and uncheck handset and headphones, click save, go back and click them back on and click save and then start audiomanager up and play music. But, I found that even w/ that I had to repeat the whole uncheck the services and then recheck them - somehow it's different than turning BT off and then on (that didn't work at all)
*** hey this morning the BT stereo headphones worked fine w/ AudioManager - didn't have to turn anything on or off - once in a while there's a short pause in sound but otherwise it sounds fine.
*** for no reason, BT stereo headphones are back to non-functioning - tried soft reset, reinstall cabs, etc. - no decent sound out of them - of course they work great for BT phone. Any suggestions?
I was a programmer in my former life (before 8 kids) and I design websites, but I was totally frustrated w/ the BT issue - so I'm not being methodical and I didn't really find a definite thread that said do 1, 2, 3 - so I've thrown every cab I can find onto my system.
I'm sure this doesn't help - it's very scattered and unorganized.

Mgrunk. what Broadcom do you have installed and where to get it? In WM6.0 there isn't an "about"
meanwhile found the Helmi BT 1.7 but I am getting a insufficient driver memory available. I have to preform a soft-reset which I did but didn't help. Whats is the solution?
Give up
ok, it's back to not working - I'm going to return the stereo BT headphones and wait for a new answer - maybe it's the headphones.
But, in regards to the about screen - I had 2 BT icons on the Connection page and the 2nd one had an about page - I hard reset today and it's gone.
Michelle
Mgrunk- I hard reset a couple of days ago as well just trying to cleanup because having two BT connection managers was bothering me. I have gotten the MS stack to work better by doing the SD card registry edit you suggested and another one at HKLM\software\microsoft\bluetooth\a2dp\settings\bitpool and setting it to 25 then settling to 23. It was at 48 when I started. The lower the number slows down the data transmission rate and reduces the choppiness. The lower the lower the sound quality as well so you will need to adjust on your own. Start with 25 then work your way down. What headset were you using?
Well that worked sort of
I changed those 2 registery values - I had to take the bitrate back to 21 - the sound has really degraded - but the music plays - who knows if it will work tomorrow.
Oh, and I have a set of Spider BT stereo headphones - the people I've called said the sound is fine so the mike works ok and the sound is great for the phone.
They're behind the neck, over the ear as opposed to earbuds but I didn't want wires. The ones I really wanted were $129 - earbuds behind the neck.
Michelle
I've been able to keep my BT headphones working by deleting the entry and forcing them into pairing mode and re-pairing them whenever they get choppy. If I'm careful about how I shut them down and restart them (shut off music, wait until I hear the headphones stop transmitting sound, shut off headphones, shut down BT -> start music, start BT, start headphones) I can use them several times before I have to re-pair them.
But it still seems very weird to have to go through all this crap to use them. If I deviate from that shutdown and restart pattern, I have to re-pair them to get them working properly again. If I do a soft reset, I have to re-pair. It can't be the headphones. They work great with other BT applications.
They do work fantastic when they're working though.
a link from a different forum
http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/ppc-...-rom-only-read-1st-post-before-posting-7.html
so, now I'm off to convert some of my music to mp3 - and then I'm going to try some different players - AudioManager has the same issues w/ wma music as WM10 player - having the bit rate down to 21 really makes for some static in the music.
Update: didn't work - low rate mp3's w/ MortPlayer had same issue

I have a x7500 and using Bluetooth Receiver setup with headphones and headset for phone. Good news is that all of this actually works pretty well overall. Bad news is that my MP3 music players restart automatically after I receive a phone call upon the ending of the phone call I can tell Pocket Player not to restart after the phone call and this works. However, iPlay still wants to start no matter what! Is there any way to tell the audio gateway or A2DP or ???.....NOT to restart music after a phone call ends.
I would appreciate any help on this. I have been searching forums and looking at registry entries but no success in stopping the restarting of music players so far.
that is a software compatibility issue
i have no problem listinging or watching movies via AD2P
when phone comes in, it pauses, and goes to Phone mode
when i finish talking, and hang up
it switches back to Music / Movie mode in AD2P
no restart no issues at all
using CorePlayer
i got 3 different headsets
Jabra BT8010
Moto HT820
Sony DS970
they all work perfectly
my guess is the Pocket Player you are using?
try another Audio Player software
Yes. I agree. It is a compatability issue but sometimes there are still options to exert control. So Pocket Player has option to restart after phone call but iPlay does not. Thus Pocket Player offers pretty good control in this area. However, it just so happens that iPlay has some very, very high end features that I really like but just does not have the phone handling at this time with the version that I have (although plays fine thru Bluetooth). I am hoping there might be some registry setting to tell A2DP not to try to restart music after a phone call.
Anyone ever heard of the ability to do this?
doesn't have to be a software issue. I have the same problem but with Touch Flo 3D skin. It starts playing music after the call, even if before the call I wasn't listening to the music I've tried to disable the Touch Flo 3D, but then the standard Media Player starts after the call . I have to remember to turn off the music after every call - it's driving me crazy!!
Hi there,
i have an annoying behaviour on my HD2 when connecting to headset, bt a2dp and so on. I just find some articles with the same problem in the nexus forum, so i start this new thread.
If ever i plugin my headset, the sense musictab opens and with a delay of 5-10 seconds it begins to play. this is really annoying, because i hear my music and books with mortplayer. when inserting headset, after the delay, i hear my mortplayer music and the music which is loaded in my sense tab. so everytime i have to go to sensetab manually and stop playing music.
i can reproduce the same behaviour when connecting to my bt-caraudio (parrot). everytime when a2dp is connected, the music starts to play. also, i have this issue with my motorola s9 bt-headset.
does anyone have the same issue or perhaps solved this problem ?
best regards, chris
Disable the sense music tab as it seems you're not using it...
i tried this too, but then wmplayer is coming in front and wants to play.
is it wanted from htc, that everytime someone connects the earplug the music starts ? sometimes i just want to connect my earplugs while driving with my bike to answer calls. i have no intent to hear music in this situation
Hmm, doesn't do this for me. What ROM are you using?
It does so when I set S2P to do it, but not otherwise...
i use artemis 6.0 with the newset radio (9) i think. i reflashed the rom in the last minutes, so i will check if it is something with the settings i made in the last days
Hi all,
sorry to dig out such an old thread, but felt it was better then starting e new one on the same matter.
I have the same problem with my HD2 with Artemis 14 (WM6.5.5). When I connect to car kit using bluetooth. And randomly also sometime when plugging the headset, music starts palying automaticaly.
Very annoying, especially since I don't use Sense's tab as a player.
Any one found a fix / setting on this ??
thanks
Hello peeps,
I wonder if any of you folks with an HD2, use it with Bluetooth A2DP and satnav?
My predicament is this...
I am a motorcyclist, and occasionally listen to music from my HD2 via a Bluetooth A2DP helmet. It works great, with good sound quality and no skipping of music tracks using Manilla Music Player.
I also have Garmin Mobile XT, which I often use in the car, and the voice prompts and directions work great through the HD2 internal speaker.
However, if I want to use Garmin Mobile XT with my BT Helmet, it works OK, with the exception that audio coming from Mobile XT seems clipped right at the beginning. For example, the instruction:
"Drive 3.4 miles, then keep left." - which is how it would sound through the internal speaker...
...will more often than not sound like...
".(point) 4 miles, then keep left." - when heard through the helmet.
As you can imagine, it would be quite dangerous to have to keep looking at the screen to confirm instructions, and you can believe how confusing this is when actually on the road and relying on voice direction only.
I have searched thorugh all of the HD2 forums for the tags 'bluetooth' and 'audio', found some similar issues that peeps were having with music player playback stuttering and the like, and tried some of the remedies offered by other forum dweller (like the increase file cache, line rate, etc), but to no avail.
As a computer professional, I am inclined to say that the symptons seem like a buffering or issue. But obviously, I am not a cellualr expert, so I will leave the really diagnosis for the pro's here ;-P
Perhaps one other lucky HD2 owner will have experienced (and hopefully had solved) a similar issue (perhaps not with the BT helmet tho ;-P).
Thanks for taking the time to read my post, and I'd greatly appreciate any feedback anyone has to offer.
Rgds,

Me Too!
I'm using a Samsung SBH-650 Bluetooth Stereo Headset, and I get exactly the same thing! I've no idea about a solution, but at least you know you're not alone.
I have the same with Jabra BT530. No reaction from HTC, no solution here.
i saw once a thread about a similar problem.
there they wrote that the bt-chipset which is used by htc for the hd2 is a Broadcomchip. They told, that there are some differences between the os and the chip and something about the problem, that it switches to standby mode too early or something like this.
this could be the issue. your phone turns the chip too early in standby mode and you cant hear the whole sentence cause it needs time to turn it on again.
sorry mate, im not having a solution, but thats something i read. maybe it helps.

Bluetooth is a slow (imagine RS-232) comms protocol that was designed primarily for local audio connection. EDR (Ehanced data rate) was brought on for high data rate stereo connections.
If you want stereo audio connection, simutaneous phone connection and GPS connection running while all the associated SW packages are running in your phone, then you are asking a hell of a lot of even a 2.5Ghz laptop!
PLEASE, lets get the device in perspective......
Hello,
Sorry for my english.
I'm biker too, i'm using a Parrot BT Headset and i've got no problem.
I'm listen to music (with S2P) and using copilot live at the same time without problem.
Sometimes instead of S2P, i'm listening to webradio (with Wunderadio) and using copilot live without problem...
Listening radio or music allow that the BT channel is always up.
regards,
Thierry
i'm not a motorbiker, but i use bluetooth headset for listening music.
When wifi is on, and there is not wlan accessible, bluetooth lags every 30 seconds when trying to connect.
I'm reviving this ancient thread, cause I'm having a similar problem with my HTC Amaze and it's driving me nuts.
Sound is played back with about 2 seconds lag, very, very annoying. Never had any issues with my Motorola Droid...
Can anyone explain why this is happening and if there is a possible fix/hack?
Help?!
