The current version 1.60 of the ROM includes already a virtual serial port but unfortunately it is a dynamic port, which is not visible to many applications. Also the ActiveSync support is difficult and complicated to use and if you want to synchronize with different computers you have always to couple the device again.
For future releases I plan the following improvements:
Support for Bluetooth headsets
Support for Bluetooth network access points
Send contacts and files through Bluetooth

i am looking also for handsfree bluetooth support if any help on that
Yeah, headset works fine, it's the handsfree profile we need, that's the one adding enhanced features....
Do you know why some headsets work better than others? I understand that the profile does not work and therefore you can not use the functions on the headsets, but I'm curious if your recent fix will help headsets such as the Jabra BT250 communicate better with the device. The HBH-65 has no issues, but Jabra does note, often very slow to connect. I like the Jabra because I can hear better-age you know.

Maybe because of the headsets itself ? I bought a HBH-35 and can do [/quote]anything with it, walk out of range and back, turn it off and on, reset the MDA, chanrge the headset etc etc. without having to re-pair...

What headset-functions do you mean ? Caller ID ? Voicedial etc. ?
That's not in the headsetprofile, that's in the handsfree profile. the headsets with enhanced functions use the handsfreeprofile also, nut just the headsetprofile...
downloaded and installed 1.0.1.2 fantastic my new bt gps works! However I can not use my gps and hbh-65 headset at the same time, any ideas please
Simply stated I was wondering if the new blutooth fix might help the Jabra BT250 work better. I know other headsets work without issue, but Jabra seems to have some problems, and I doubt that this is a Jabra problem, I believe it is a BT Device profile issue.
Can I have another link to the software cause the link is blocked from my ISP, or can any body upload it here or any other palce...
Best regards,,,
I have a new HBH-200, it works ok to answer a call but all the other features are not working, such as caller number etc.
Like i said; It's not i the headsetprofile. The headsetprofile doesn't do much except making a wireless headset possible. Answer, dosconnect and talk and listen, that's all...
Everyting else is in the handsfreeprofile (handsfree is used for advanced options for headsets and carkits)...
Link down????? :?:
not for me
Handfree Profile
I have 2 phones, XDA II and a Nokia 8910i.
My bluetooth Headset is the Ericsson HBH65.
To my surprise, I have paired the HBH65 with both phones and I am able to receive calls from both phones (not at the same time of course) without any problems. Whichever phone rings first get the use of the HBH65. In conflicts however, the Nokia seems to have priority over the XDAII, which is fine with me, but I am so happy that it actually works.
As others are mentioning, I am really missing the enhanced functions of the Handsfree Profile. Can anyone suggest any solution or perhaps work on resolving this issue as a lot of people are waiting for this. I was aware that Towas was planning to release a new version to his BT Stack Fix, has he got anywhere with that by any chance? or anyone else?
I have only had my XDA 2 for a week and I can’t get my Motorola 810 head set to work. The XDA finds it and tells me that it is compatible with headset profiles but it doesn't seem to work. Can anyone advise me?
Thanks
Andy
Have you followed the procedure for pairing the device,ie: place xda in discover mode, when it finds the headset, tap then enter code for pairing, once paired switch bluetooth to on, then make sure you have bluetooth headset turned on from the main/today screen.
I seem to have problems with my bluetooth headset every once in a while also. I have a HBH65. On ocassion, the connection doesn't seem to be working even though headset is enabled and they are paired. I've found that if I soft reset the XDA2, that the bluetooth headset will work again.
Have you installed towas bluetooth tools patch, this fixes a lot of problems with bonding and alos makes things work where they couldnt before. I was told that the latest rom release here in UK was going to address all these problems too but I havent got around to upgrading yet, I hope it supports full headset profiles so I can originate calls from the headset as well as answering the call.
I have downloaded the new Rom update and it seems no different. I have tried a soft reset and this did not improve the situation.
I know the headset works fine as I use it with my nokia handset with no problem.
Has anyone got a Motorola 810 that works ok on the XDA ?

did the bluetooth tools patch support voice dial from bluetooth headset? if not did anyone know the new rom from O2 works with this function? thanks!
Andy, no it doesnt support originate call from headset but it did allow lots of different gps and headsets to work, the headsets work for answer call/drop call only as far as I know, in the notes for the xda2 upgrade it mentions the headset profile but I dont know if anybody has hot the headset facility to work yet, I havent upgraded yet so I am yet to test it.
I have installed the new ROM and as far as I can see it does nothing for Bluetooth beyond fixing some compatibility issues on some headsets. It still only allows one headset profile (so if you have a headset and a handsfree kit as I do you need to delete bonded pairs when you change devices - now there's intelligent functionality!!). No headset dialing so still not a complete BT headset implementation. No handsfree support.
Anyone else think that the XDAII is a great PDA but about the worst apology for a GSM phone in the last 10 years?
If anyone can point me to a decent set of BT tools to add on let me know.
Not really.
I fully agree the XDAII is a poor phone, with the best agenda and contact list available, but that is!
I wonder if Phone-pda makers are really going the so called "convergence" way.
To date, and after many different PDA/phone/PDA-Phone devices I've tried, no one is even close to the mark.
Something so "simple" such as merging an OLD Ericsson (or Sony-Ericsson) T-68 phone abilities, with just a PPC 2002 (yes, not even 2003) PDA, should produce a combo, no machine on the market is even close to.
IT'S SO DIFFICULT?

Hello!
I´ve just finished upgrading my XDA mini to the german TMobile ROM-Version 1.13(with BlackBerry Extensions) and i´ve installed the Bluetooth Patch from this Forum. Now i want to use my new Moto HT820 Bluetooth Stereo Headset in combination with my Bluetooth GPS Reciever. If i use each device on it´s own there are no Problems, but if i use them TOGETHER none of them works....
Can anybody help...?
Thanks,
Thomas
Same problem here, Parrot CK3100 and a GPS. When on the phone, quality of conversation is not 100%, also GPS falls behind.
Any solutions? Perhaps another BT stack ? Or maybe PocketBT Tools is the solution?

same problem here, parrot ck 3100 sounds bad when navigating with tomtom gps. i guess the different BT signals get in eachother's way ....
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I was always under the impression that Bluetooth will only work with one device at a time due to the fact it creates an exclusive pairing session each time it connects.
Please Help US!!!!!!!
No one seams to be interested to help US!!!
Problem to use GPS and headset at the same Time!!!
Please help!!!
Thanking you in advance
maybe no one has the same problem anyways ... when i navigate with tomtom the parrot still sounds like crap, when i turn the bleutooth gps reciever off it sound good .. anybody?
i am considering buying a bluetooth headset but....any luck by now with using BT headset and BT gps at the same time?
or is it just not possible with this phone?
havent tried this since i got my BT headphones but i wouldnt think it is possible given i cant run headphones and use some heavy applications too sucessfully.
plus im sure tomtom and streaming would both want to use similar ports
anyone else knows if it is possible to use bluetooth headset and gps at the same time?
And does the voice from tomtom come through the headset or not?
(i prefer not)
it works for me
I'm using xda mini with plantronics 320 bluetooth headset, a noname gps receiver and igo europe as navigation software. Of course they work one at the time so when the phone rings gps connection is lost but when I finish the call gps connection is restored. The sound of the headset is the same when i'm not in range of gps receiver.
I did a big mistake when I installed a different bluetooth stack hoping that it might help(ROM 1.12.00WWE). I was wrong. I had to hard reset the phone and since then everything is just fine (about 2 months).
ok i finally got around to testing this, im using tomtom 6 with the maps located on my storage card. also using some mp3 i had on my storage card.
started music streaming to bluetooth HT820 headset, running ok. started tomtom up paused into tomtom splash screen (i thought oh ho this aint going to work too good) sure enough once the tomtom maps kicked in the gps and the headset stopped working (tomtom froze up).
as far as i could tell it wasnt that they wouldnt both run but they was both working from storage card and needed a high level of access to do it.
so in a nutshell i dont think this would be possible, this is using a 400 htz cpu and 128 memory
Hi there,
Finally I assume I found out why some people have problems with their unit using BT and others not.
Those, who use BT headsets only (not stereo) and don't use the AD2P and AVRCP Profile don't have any problems. (I can confirm this - tested it with HBH-660 and Motorola without any troubles!)
And those people who have a stereo headset like the HBH-DS980 (which I own personally) and/or do own a car radio that can receive AD2P signals to transfer Stereo sound, face with the BT disconnections while listening to music and/or during a call or just right after...
So I think SE should solve this issue quickly as it seems to be a problem in WMP 6.1 in accordance to X1 hardware with AD2P / AVRCP profile devices.
So I start a poll for anyone who could confirm this or not !
BTW: I am using the Generic AT ROM but this BUG is affected through all other ROMs too, so that shouldn't matter -
Thanks,
Freako
My kenwood headunit uses avrcp and a2dp and works fine.
There was a discussion on this issue already and it does exist w/ my AT&T Tilt (Kaiser) as well w/ all the A2DP headsets I tried (SE DS220/205/980, JVC BT-1, ClipD R Radio, Jabra (forget what model)) so far
I believed the bluetooth issue that R2A fixed is another one where BT will turn itself off if not use for a while.
The 'turn off' issue is still there with mine! I had it only after 2,3 days but then continuously turn off by itself! Now, still happening! Generic_UK R2A
Generic Swedish R2A.
No problem for Bluetooth! But when I softreset x1 via spb mobile shell panell it crashes on boot.

Yes absolutely Jackleung, you're right, the new firmware should have fixed the automatic turn off of BT only, but I belive what michaelthemage said, that it still exists after his UK firmware update so do I - today the BT icon dissapeared suddenly - so it was turned off automatically ... very curious...
Anyway, Jackleung, you say that this problem was present in earlier WM6 machines like the Kaiser? As far as I know I did not try a stereo BT headset on my previous Tytn II but you say it seems to be a bug in WM6.1 in general, right ?
Very interesting that trinode doesn't have these problems with it's Kenwood headset - maybe I give it a try if it isn't too expensive -
On the other way Persian Boy links it with the SPB Shell - I do have the standard SBP Panel that you can download from web. Maybe I should uninstall it and try again - maybe the SPB panel makes these troubles? Personally I can't imagine, but will try anyway -
So far,
Freako

The problem I am talking about is A2DP/Headset disconnected after phone call, and I have to re-connect it after that. I don't thinks it's WM6 or SPB panel issue since only HTC devices (X1, Kaiser w/ no SPB install) have this issue. My other device Asus P525 (WM6/6.1 w/ Widcomm bt stack) or Eten M600 (WM6 w/ MS BT stack) do not have this issue.
Is anyone with the Bluetooth problem running MS Voice Command? I'm still on R1A. I had no trouble at all using my Motorola T505 A2DP kit, but when I installed MSVC, the stupid thing would drop out as soon as I picked up a call. Uninstalling MSVC seems to have done the trick.

Hi, yes I have Voice Command 1.6 on my device. It's working pretty well, but I know, what you're talking about -
Please try it with a usual BT headset (without the AD2P / AVRCP profiles!) if you have this possibility, - you'll see that it will work without any hassle.
I made this experience after I tried the HBH-660 and a Motorola headset.
Anyway - the new firmware R2A is recommended, even if the BT issue isn't solved.
But interesting to know that it seems to be a bug in HTC machines... so it will exist in further firmware updates... probably... I personally don't hope so....
No problems with the Sony HBH-IS800's and the bluetooth turning off randomly.
I have a problem with the WIFI randomly turning itself on during phone calls but no problems with anything turning off.
I have HBH-DS980 and I don't have any problems with disconnecting it on my X1 - not with R2A and not with R1A UK roms, also tested few modifided roms and there woudn't any problems too. I am also using SE MBW-150 watch and it also don't disconnect's with X1 (tested with R1A and R2A). I have BT turned on in my X1 all the time (previously in R1A rom and now in R2A) and after I turn on my HBH-DS980 headsets it will connect with them automaticly. Only sometimes I have to switch off and switch on againg BT to get connected with headsets but I think its headsets problem not the phone. But I never had a problem with suddenly disconnecting (not even once).

Thank you very much ell82, but maybe I should describe more specifically - disconnections also happens after calls - for example, if you switch on your BT headset (in this case the DS-980), you see a symbol next to the BT symbol on the top of the phone, that indicates, that a BT headset is connected. Now, I figured out, that after calls this symbol dissapears and the BT headset dissconnects, so I have to push the button on the DS-980 again to get connected with the phone, you know? And when I get a call, the phone does not automatically transfer the call to the headset, I always have to push the button on it first, to be connected again...
And you also confirm that sometimes you have to switch the BT on and off again - this is absolutely the same with my phone.
You assume it is a problem with the specific headset DS-980 ? Maybe, but SE support told me that there is no firmware update or sth. similar for this type... what a pity -
Anyway I hope it is not a hardware bug of the phone - I haven't heard of any phone that was repaired or refurbished because of the Bluetooth bug.
Ok, so can we say that the HBH-DS980 will not work with X1 as it should do ?
This is very pity, because it is the top of thir line of headset products... and I liked it very much on my previous P1i and it worked perfectly on it...

This is exactly the same issue I am talking about and it's NOT specific to DS-980 alone. I tried DS-980, DS-205, DS-220, JVC BT-1, Clip-D Radio, and one Jabra model. And they all have the same issue on my X1 and Kaiser. (but not on my Asus P525 and Eten M600). The issue not happening 100% of the time but at least 80% which is enough to be frustrated.

Yes, 80% of that time is ok, but the 20% lead to be very frustrated - ABSOLUTELY !!
In a time (2009) were bluetooth does exist several years and where all bugs should have been cleared over the years..., the truth shows that there still exist "minor/major?" bugs in current phones...
BT Headset problems
I can confirm that the problems with BT and HBH-DS970 are a fact - and it seems to drain the battery enormously. I have tested for a few days the PV 710 (Mono handsfree), no issue. Today with the 970 my battery was empty after 6 hours standby, and it was disconnected allthough the icon said "BT-Stereo-Headset connected! After switching it off, the icon remained. Strange, isn´t it?
I come from P1i and there was no such problem at all.
I experience the same problem. New NL firmware and a Volkswagen (Bury OEM) Bluetooth carkit. My Nokia 6500 and SE K850i work perfectly but terminating a call makes the BT connection disappear on a fairly regular base. If the other party terminates it usually stays connected
...very strange but anyway it seems that it is mainly affected with AD2P / AVRCP devices - I hope it is just a software/firmware bug that can be fixed easily and not caused by a hardware failure....
Sorry guys but again I have to say it doesnt effect on my X1 and DS-980, never and I'm using it a lot. Have you guys tried it on fresh phone, without any additional software?

The first thing after the purchase of the phone was to couple the device with the DS-980 headset and the bluetooth issue was really not expected and made me angry and at that time I didn't have any extra software on it...
When did you buy your headset ? I bought mine approx. 1 1/2 years ago...
Maybe the current items go better with the X1?? I don't know.
But we found out that this issue was also caused in other Windows Mobile devices like the Kaiser, TyTn etc.
The poll shows significantly that there are still some who have troubles with bluetooth, even after update-
AND now we can ask them if any of you have tried the headsets with clean and fresh install ? (Xperia X1 without any additional software, even without sbp panel, etc...! )
I am curious...

Hey, is anyone using the bluetooth headset Jabra BT8040, When I first bought the headset, I had no problems using it. But I've noticed a few months ago, that whenever I use the device, the person I'm calling wont be able to hear me but I can hear them. Anyone have any ideas to solve this problem?
Similar problems
I've got the same earpiece and I've had some problems with it, including: unable to pair (or saying it's paired when it really isn't), unable to connect the BT on a call, and sometimes the earpiece will just disconnect from the phone (but the call will still remain active).
That last one is the closest I've come to your issue. I usually have to put the phone in discovery mode (and the earpiece) and try repairing them from scratch.
I've heard from others with this earpiece that they haven't had problems, but I don't know anyone who has this earpiece and the Raphael. Also, I've got the Motorola S9 bt headphones and I haven't had any problems with them. So, I'm not 100% it's the earpiece but then again it could be.
i have this jabra for about 6 months and had no problem at all with Raphael!
Changed ROM
I've just changed the ROM on my phone (as in signature line) so that may change things for me with the Jabra BT.

I'm using the updated ROM and radio in my signature line with the Jabra BT8060 (wasn't it? whatever the one we were talking about in this post is) as well as a Motorola S9 and I pair it with my laptop for internet access that way. So far I have not had the same troubles with the Jabra BT as I used to. It could be due to updated drivers for the BT or the fact that I'm not using TF3D (just the new WM6.5 interface).
Either way, I'm having good results so far.
I spoke too soon on BT...
I've spoken too soon on BT. I was trying to get my Motorola S9 working so I could listen to music from my phone. No luck at all - it shows the S9 connected for both the calls and the the music, but it only works on calls and the music plays on the device with the speaker. And it was working just fine this morning. Bluetooth in general is so frustrating to me that I would literally remove it from every costom ROM I use EXCEPT for "Internet Sharing" (on an Acer laptop and netbook) over bluetooth and activesync with a PC. Not just with this phone, but seriously, with BT 2.0 it should work A LOT BETTER than it does.
I have similar issues with several different Moto H700's. I can hear them but they can not hear me. Possibly the BT drivers from HTC need a fix????
