Bluetooth GPS/phone problem - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development

Hi,
I've just started using a GPS receiver with my BA.
The problem that I face is that while using GPS normal phone operations cease to work... means i can not receive any phone calls... though the phone shows gsm signals... and its varying strengths..
also,.. after closing the gps... i can not make a call.. the phone function hangs at the dialing stage... and only a soft reset solves the problem.
i'm using radio 1.15
this render my phone unusable till the time i soft reset my phone after navigation.
Can someone pls help me out on it,

update:
MS stack creates the problem. i've to change the port everytime to make gps work and phone does not function after gps is initialized.
when i installed broadcomm 1.7 test stack from helmi... there were no problems with the gps or any phone functions
but the downside is that BT handsfree stops working...only BT audio works.
tried installing 1.6 stack also, but do not know how gto disable the MS stack... after installing 1.6 stack... MS stack is still active

"No Bluetooth Hardware" - and I haven't done any u

My Jam has recently decided that I dont' have any bluetooth hardware.
I have seen people complaining about this problem after they updated Radio or ROM - but I haven't done a single thing with my JAM. What they hellis going on. This thing is total piece of garbage....
you need to soft reset it
i have the same problem plus i have no audio on my phone..you can say that again man. abviously i already made a soft reset been doin it for 2 days now! damn! :x help anyone?
This is total garbage. How can a phone just start malfunctioning like that for no reason? This is pathetic.
I have an experience as: I have installed the radio scheduler which I can set to turn BT on and off as pre-scheduled. During the time the BT is off as scheduled, I manually turn it ON then the device say: No BT Hardware. During the time BT is ON as scheduled, I turn it OFF then ON again, no any problem's arised. When I uninstall the Scheduler software, everything's OK. But because I need radio scheduler application to turn GSM/BT ON and OFF automatically as my schedule so I decide not to touch the BT Icon in the bottom tray when BT is off. Without that problem the software run perfectly.
My XDAmini's BT is perfectly paired and worked with my Jabra BT 258. For Async function with my laptop, I use BT Tool 1.0 patch.
So for your cases, I think there is some software have been installed to turn ON/OFF BT function in lower level than the Microsoft's BT stack. Then when MS's BT stack come to check the hardware has been turn OFF, it found NO BT Hardware.
Hope the explanation may help.
I've the same problem with a french ROM. There is a message that told "no bluetooth hardware on this device" but at sometimes il works for a limited time.
I've this problem only under 1.06 ROM not with 1.03.
I need help to resolve this. Soft reset and hard reset change nothing as reflashing with 1.06
Help needing :?
Normally the issue was going to be fixed
Normally the issue was going to be fixed in the 1.06 see reporting on issue
Well.... I had the same message before when I upgraded to MA_DANG_WWE_10600_115_10500_SHIP. Then after a hard reset the problem gone. But his rom is not so stable.
Now I'm using the ma_cdlsku1_10600_110_10500_ship but override with the US radio to 110. And I can say is the most stable I had try on others.
After every soft reset my BT headset will paired by it self with my XDAmini, not like the others which I need to pair on manually. But only one thing is when the BT converage is out of range it had to pair them again. Anyway this is better then nothing.
Note: the radio 110 overiding is not for BT improvement. Just that is for the radio signal upgrade.
Hope this help.
When you want to enable the bluetooth try to make it also discoverable to other devices. This will enable for sure the blue tooth and you will not get again a "No bluetooth hardware" error.
Not true. I have mine discoverable, but this problem seems to occur randomly.
what error messege do you get? i fixed mine by installing that buzztooth or switch application im not sure of the name, but just try to remember the application that you tried/installed before that enable/disables the bluetooth with a shortcut. ow yea and a little tweak on the registry fixed mine..

Explain de REGISTRY trick on the prog you install. Give us more information please
what error are you getting? i modified the registry because i had an license expired error..if thats not the error dont bother with the registry. anyway about the bluetooth device not found error i found out the SKtools application is doing it..so the easiest way would be a restore registry on the SKtools app then soft restart.
how long does it take for you guys on a HardReset to get to the startmenu?
Same problems here:
1- No BT HW found
2- BT SW detects Flight Mode on and a message pop up saying to turn off FlightM to activate BT...but FlightMode is turned off yet! than the message is in Spanish and my ROM is Italian....
Really an annoying problem!!!
I hope that HTC has been informed about this!
Today, i've got one more this error. I'll made a screen copy when it happen.
When the problem occurs, there is no possibility to select bluetooth, all is grey
How does i take a old bt manager (before upgrading it works very well)

help - xdaII mini in-call problems

hi, my name is warren and i'm from australia, and i require some help with my o2 xda ii mini
i have been playing around with bluetooth stacks and programs to get my bluetooth gps reciever to talk with my xdaII mini, and have come intio a new problem that has only seemed to come about recently
so.. the phone works fine
except.. when i am in-call, if i turn the pda on (eg to make a note or check the call timer) then the phone stops working. i can still hear the other person, but they can't hear me. i assume the microphone stops working or something? if i call them back immediately it works fine again, its just if i turn it on in-call!
i installed a bleutooth stack on here but i cant uninstall it to see if that fixes the problem
HELP!
thanks,
Warren
Which BT stack did you install? Most GPS receivers work flowlessly. In most cases the only thing to install is a patch called BTComPort.cab.
yeah unfortunately i realise that now!
i did install the above "BTcomport" patch but i also installed this stack: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=249219
nto sure what to do. i tried uninstalling it but it says files are in use. i tried deleting all the required files, but cannot delete 2 of them which are apparently in use

Bluetooth still doesn't work properly!

My X1 has a very annoying problem with it's Bluetooth. During a call using Bluetooth handsfree the phone will drop the Bluetooth connection, leaving the call connected so annoyingly the caller can hear me cursing the unreliability of my phone. I then have to finish the conversation holding the phone to my ear without the headset.
I called Sony Ericsson, who told me to update the firmware. I did - to R2AA007 - makes no difference. They then said it was a defective phone, so I got a new one sent to me...
...this one has worked great for a month, but yesterday the battery ran almost flat and whilst on a call using handsfree it started playing up again. Now it does it all the time again, even though the phone has been fully recharged and rebooted.
I have been very careful not to change any settings with this second phone, no installs of anything. This is a Vodafone UK phone if it makes any difference. Any idea how I can get this working again? Even without the handsfree connected I can see the display flash 'Bluetooth on' at random intervals indicating that it keeps dropping. Sony Ericsson say that this is not a firmware issue that needs fixing now - what do you guys think?
there are many posts regarding your problem. one thing is for sure,you are not the only one. look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=480698 and here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=471181 here too http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=448703 i have my mbw-150 and my hbh-pv712 connected at all times to my x1 the watch is always connected but my headset disconnects randomly as you mentioned even during a call. there is no problem with your phone it's a software issue.
Thanks for the links. What annoys me is that Sony tell me there is no problem and they won't report the bug to their firmware team because "it's been fixed in R2A". This isn't the case, and it doesn't give me much hope for firmware R3A.
Same problem here
I experienced the same problem. Got my X1 in december 2008. Problems started in mid Januari, about a month of good Bluetooth operations, it started to give problems. During a call the Bluetooth connnection is lost, but the call stays open. Can reconnect Bluetooth again during the call, but after some time (sometimes seconds, sometimes tens of seconds) the connection get lost again.
Was glad when the new firmware arrived in Feb 2009. Download it, and the problem was gone fore about one month. Mid march the problem started again. Downloaded (the same) firmeware version again and the problem was gone again for some time. Last week it reappeared again
My conclusion: the Bluetooth bug wasn't corrected in the latest firmware version. Just reinstallation of a new firmeware version resets the phone and the the problem is gone then for some time.....
Seems that there some kind of an internal timer/counter that corrupts good bluetooth operations. I don't want to reinstall "firmware" every time again because I have to reconfigure my phone then every time, which takes a lot of time.
I hope that Sony finally will correct this most irritation bug!!!!
In the mean time I use a Bluetooth restart programme that "turns on" bluetooth every second. This helps moth of the time.
This works for me
In the Bluetooth-Device-Manager tap and hold the stylus on the headset you want to use until a popup is shown, then select use as headset. This worked for me when i have had some problems with one of my headsets supporting more than the "Handsfree-Profile" .
=> better connection under R1, best connection under R2(using R2 since official release)
Good luck WOODY
Hey Guys,
I think i have the solution for the bluetooth problem. i had my Xperia since 11/2008.
i never had a problem with connection when i used my headset. the problem was with the I-Drive disconnection randomly.
I flashed multiple roms from Itje and Jack with the same problem always.
now for the past 2 weeks i have been using Itje V5.5 with no problems what so ever.
the key is to turn bluetooth off in the comm manager everytime you wanna install new programs. i truly believe that installing software with the bluetooth on disrupt something ???
Hope that helps.

Honestly, it make no sense to me....
try it!! it will work ...
@mdshaded
I hope youre kidding, I've had BT problem (BT turns off) since I got this phone last year.
With Itje's WM6.5 RC1 I still have the same problem.
I am not Kidding, I tried all cooked and original roms. I had a pocket PC phone for the past 3 years: Trinity, Kaiser and now the Xperia.
Again my dropped BT Connection were with my Car BT system, never with my Stereo BT headset.
try to hard reset and then install Itje V5.5 and keep your BT off until you are done installing all your programs then turn it on and report back.
Cheers

I had tried more phones (Eten M600, Asus P525, Kaiser, X1), and did a lot researchs and only HTC's one (Kaiser, X1, Diamond, TP, HD ...etc) gives such issue. Not on my Asus P525 and M600. And I had tried many A2DP devices (Sony: DS-205, DS225, DS970, DS980, Clip-D Radio, Jarba (forget what model), JVC-BT1 (car system)) and only HTC devices give me issue.
And your suggestion of turn off bluetooth while software installation make no sense as installation only perform files coping + registry registration which I don't see any relationship from BT issue.
Dear Jack,
I know it does'nt make any sense. but i had this problem on other devices and was always corrected with a cooked rom except with the Xperia..
there is nothing to lose.. just try it..
my phone had no single dropped connection for 2 weeks now.
All the Best.
what bluetooth issue, ive been using hbh ds-200 since ive got the xperia (used on buses, around the house and alot of places) works great and has a further distance than p1i but only has an issue of button compatability. i think it could be the the bluetooth device ur using or the lack of software. may be wrong completley but hear me out ive had it rnning for ages with music on or durig a phone call cause i cant be bothered to pull out of its case to avoid scratching the phone (i know its stupid) but like i said it is working, for me atleast
same problem ...
I'm experiencing the same problem:
my X1 periodically drops the connection to my BMW iDrive while I'm speaking. But, when I'm not in the car I'm using a plantronics voyager 855 and never had a problem ! So there seems to be a problem with specific bluetooth devices.
Before the X1 I had a touch diamond and it worked without any problems with the same iDrive.
Thomas
Dear Thomas,
i am glad that you mentioned your problem with the I-Drive. I did not have a single drop in BT Connection for 2 weeks now. I truly believe that installing some software impairs the BT connection with my I-Drive.
Again never had any problems with Headsets.
My I-Drive Version I believe was newer than V.25.
Cheers.

Bluetooth Problems on X1

Hi,
hopefully anyone has an answer to the strange bluetooth behaviour of my X1.
The first device is a bluetooth headset from Sony. It works good, if bluetooth is activated. But after some time of not using the headset, the phone just switches off bluetooth. Sometimes after a few minutes, sometimes days after my last use of the headset. I tried all settings of the bluetooth-settings with no change. And it sucks if with the next phone call the headset cannot connect anymore because bluetooth was switched off.
The second device is a GNS TrafficBox Plus FM9BT-Y. Somehow MN7 does not detect the device directly, so I have to use the workaround with the serial port and outgoing connection on COM1.
The initial minutes the connection works fine, but then stops and is not restored.
Here as well trying different settings changed nothing.
How can I find out the address of the bluetooth devices?
Is there a tool to further test bluetooth connections (like what speed can be used, the address of the device, etc)
Regards

Im using Itjes Touch 7 final & i have the same problem - infact i've had it with the last 3 of his roms with my blutooth to SEAT car. I'll be on a call in my car & it switches the blutooth off without warning. generally after about 10 minutes of actual call time. But it doesnt disconnect unless during a call ? There is no rhyme or reason to it, it just sometimes happens?
So any further info will be appreciated

I have Ra2generic DE with the 1.10 radio ROM on it.
At the beginning it was fantastic not having the bluetooth issue. Everything was working so extremely goood... no switching off, no disconnecting of and from the bt headset,, etc...
After a while the issue was here again...damn! So the bt became not very useful in its functionalities.... then I saw that it was not possible to see through my bt freespeech device in the car the last calls on the phone... hm, ok I said. There were lot of calls (incoming, outgoing, missed, etc) on the list...I erased them all...
Now it is working in a perfect way.... no disconnecting, no switching off..and this with the stock ROM and Radio ROM.
I tried it a few months before posting it here... now I'm cleaning up my calling list every 2nd day (I really call a lot) and I have no problems..
Hope it works for you..
i have the same problem, the bluetooth disconect without any reason, i have tried more than 10 Roms and i dont have any solution

Bluetooth with clarion mind
Am having trouble connecting with my new Clarion MIND - is seems the phone does not see the profiles (very similar to the phone adding the older SE Bluetooth Watch, the 100). Has anyone built a .cab to sort this out?

Bluetooth car kit disconnects after a call...

I'm starting to struggle with my T-HD, I seem to have more fixing & patching applications on it than the nice day to day stuff you would want or expect on a high end device competing against the iPhone...
My current source of annoyance is that the bluetooth connection between the T-HD and my Landrover Freelander 2 that has been working fine for 6-months now either (a) doesn't connect or (b) does connect but when I dial out through the MMI saying "dialing" but then drops out or (c) we make a sucessful call but at the end the MMI states "phone disconnected" and when it reconnects it re-sync's the phonebook which all takes time...
Based on advice from the forum i've...
deleted and recreated the "pairing" ensuring everthing is visible,
used HD Tweak and Advance Config tools to fine tune the BT settings,
tried different BT COD values,
removed PhoneEX
installed JETware Mobile
All to no avail, the phone connection still drops.
My Nokia 6300 works fine by comparision and I can't fathom why, after 6-months of operation, this fault develops.
I've searched high and low for BT fixes, W6.1 drivers and HTC hotfixes but the options seem to be more "fixing applications" or a custom ROM nieth of which I'm keen to undertake as my T-HD is fill up with applications to fix basic functionality that should work.
Anyone else have any ideas? Can the BT drivers be replaced or updated?
HELP...
ROM ver 1.14.405.3 (22273) WWE
ROM date 12/09/08
Radio ver 1.09.25.14
BT ver 2.0/2.0+EDR
I got the same problem with my BT car Kit (Motorola T605).
I've only made it work if I connect the streaming on the BT configuration, but it have other problems as all the PDA sounds are routed through the car stereo, which can be uncomfortable if you are listening to the radio or a cd.
Could it be that problem is related to a 'power saving' configuration?
Hi there...
There seem to be plenty of fellow sufferers, strange that HTC don't seem to recognise their BT is flakey.
Sorry, what do you mean by "streaming"? I haven't seen that config.
and I have the "Power - Advanced" settings deselected (ie do nothing if inactive on mains power or battery)
All the best...
Well my HD won't sync it's phonebook with the Freelander 2... very occasionaly accepts an outgoing call via the mmi.
It will randomly lose connection also, requiring it to be re-synced.
Are you using the official ROM on your device? The bluetooth stack in the old official ROM is outdated, and honestly, garbage. Have you tried using a newer ROM, whether it's the official 1.56 ROM or a custom ROM? I used to have a ton of Bluetooth issues with my device and my car as well until I moved away from the official ROMs.
