PDA Bluetooth working with Car Stereos? - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

I have been searching long and hard to find a working solution to make my PDA work with my car stereos bluetooth, my stereo is able to use both audio bluetooth and headset bluetooth with live info like signal strength, battery and more.
Dose anyone else have trouble with make PDA's work with car stereos?
I have tryed to contact Both phone maker and stereo maker, both tell me it is not campatable due to the type of bluetooth in each are different. The ones in a PDA are the same as the ones in PC, and in regular phones it is a dumb down version and the same goes with car stereos it a dumb down version and the send signals differently.
SO ANYONE FOUND A FIX?
ANYONE WANT A FIX?

Never tryed it
If u guys get it working let me know
I have a At&t Tilt wm6 cell

you could use something like the R35 clip bluetooth and plug that into an auxillary input wired to your car stereo. Then your PDA bluetooth can sync up with the R35 bluetooth thingy and would be input into your car stereo...
i assume you have a BMW tho with built in bluetooth which would not work.
and by different version of bluetooth they probably mean like v1.1 or v1.2. i dunno if that'd make it not work but it is probably a culprit.

I do not have an auxillary input on my car. And as far as the bluetooth they are different chipsets with different ver also.
Has anyone been able to connect to a car stereo. (Aftermarket Stereo)
I have a Pioneer AVIC-D3

I dont have an external solution, i actually have a Head Unit that has BT built in. It is a sony series reciever. WORKS GREAT! i use it everyday. One of the best purchases i made for my POS car.

Seconded -- I have the Sony MEX-5000BT and its BT performance is better than any headset/headphones I've ever used.

Maybe I need to buy a sony, as pioneer knows about its compatability issues and are not releaseing a firmware update to it. Any other stereos out there that work. I have had issues with sony headsets. I am a real big fan of pioneer and this new head unit I have.
I know there must be a way.
There just has to be.
I will find one you just wait and watch.

I Found It!
I have fond the solution and did not even know it.
I have been working with a friends CAB file trying to make it work in a OEM folder install.
I just happend to ask him what the cab file was.
Check it out.
http://www.jetwaremobile.com/index.htm
I have already tried it and it works great.
Infact before when I would connect to my stereo with any phone and the phone would ring it would ring the generic tone. With this plugin, it rings the personalized ringtones have for people. This is cool and all for only $15.
Hope this helps out others.

yup, i have the same one. dont know how i lived before i had it.
Also, this unit does allow for ringtone passthrough to you car speakers along with anything else that you can get notifs through BT. The only downside for notifs is that you have to be on the stereo BT function on the radio. Calls will come through reguardless of the function you are using.

Using 8125 to play audio VIA bluetooth to car stereo!

Hello all...
My first post here!
I found this site by googling the term "Bluetooth Toggle", which was presented to me by a Cingular CSR. Looks like a great place for information, so I know I will be hanging here often! :!:
What I want to know is, can audio files stored on the mini SD card in the phone be played VIA bluetooth to a bluetooth enabled car stereo I intend to buy (or any bluetooth device or receiver for that matter) to use as a handsfree kit? The radio is a Pioneer DEH-9800BT and will do the handsfree job well.
What I would like to accomplish is the elimination of carrying a portable MP3 player along with the phone as I do now! I have a wireless FM transmitter that I plug it into in the car and a second set of stereo speakers at my desk to listen to the audio files on the portable MP3 player. Can this new phone transmit the audio VIA bluetooth to the car stereo and also to my desk PC, with some type of bluetooth reciever/adapter/widget type device?
I haven't received the phone yet, but it should arrive in the next couple of days, so I'm trying to get a jump on getting it setup. Does anyone know if this phone can handle a 4GB Mini SD card or is there a limit on the size?
Thanks for any help!!

Well... Im not sure about this BUT...
Has your car got a tape player? If so you can buy a cassette to IPod cnnecter and then a headphone socket adaptor to your phone. This would enable you to play your mp3s from your phone in your car.
Below is some ebay links that I used, the sellers have more of the same items still for sale.

This is what I do. Works great. Of course you have to have a cassette player in your car. Another option is a FM modulator but I don't like them for at least 2 reasons. 1-It times out from inactivity so you tend to get blasted by static when getting reconnected and 2-It's another piece of equipment to flop around inside your car.
Pioneer 9800bt
I bought a 9800bt, It does work with the wizard. However you have to manually connect BTAUDIO. The phone will auto connect but it is clunky. If you are listening to BTAUDIO from your phone and you receive a call the phone tells the radio and you can answer it on the radios remote. However when the call ends your BTAUDIO goes into chopper mode after that and you have to disconnect and reconnect.
Thanks for the quick replies!
I will post my results after I buy mine and install it, and of course, try to figure it out.
I just go the phone last night and it's complicated for my first PDA/Phone?PocketPC.
I am just now trying to figure out how to get my phonebook out of my 6340i and load it into the 8125... Whew.. :roll:
Thanks again!

Hello all...
I finally purchased an 8125 by extending my Cingular contract for 2 years and got it for $199.99. I looked everywhere for a good deal so I wouldn't have to do that, but no joy!
Anyway, as I said above, I also purchased a Pioneer DEH-9800BT in dash CD/MP3/WMA/Bluetooth receiver in my vehicle, and so far I am able to make calls through the stereo which is fantastic!
The only thing I found that I hope there is a way around is that when I beam my contacts from my phone to the Pioneer, the radio doesn't seem to like the format Outlook uses.
When I beam a contact, the number format in Outlook is like this; 1 (555) 555-1212, but the radio sees it like this; 1 555 555 1212 and spaces make the dialing stop. It appears the Pioneer doesn't recognize spaces, commas, dashes or parethesis characters and just makes a space where they were in the dial string!
Has anyone seen this issue on any other type of devices?
I would also like to add a 2GB MiniSD card and play audio VIA BT to the stereo, but I can't for the life of me figure out how??? The stereo says it can do it, but I think I need to add something to the 8125 to make it work!
I have searched this and other forums but I am even more confused on what I have to do. It looks like I have to add a A2DP to the 8125, but not sure how to do it, and I sure don't want to hose it up my first month. It's not like a PC where I can just blow it out and start over again, as from the reading I have done so far, I see some folks with bricks!
I have added all the specs from my phone below so I would appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction!
Thanks again!!

scosche alternative
I bought a Scosche bluelife receiver and tried to make it work with my 8125, works terrific for only a few minutes and even that is after a rather stylus intensive setup everytime you get in the car.
I too have a pioneer unit (no cassette) and subsequently bought the $10 cd adapter cable on Ebay, and use a JustWireless 3.5 to 2.5 adapter with mic to connect it all together. Other than cables draped all over the car, it works awesome for calls and music. SOund quality is excellent.
An added benefit of the hard wire.... no a2dp puzzles to figure out either... That was a pain to get going on the 8125. Good luck.
9800BT and Wizard
I have the pioneer 9800bt and a Qtek 9100 (Wizard). As said earlier I have to manually connect the phone to the deck either from the phone or deck. To do it from the deck the phone has to be "registered" with the deck.
After much research I found that the reason for the need for manual reconnection is due to the horrible bluetooth stack of the MS phones. The deck automatically detects and connects to my Blackberry 7290 and a friends Sony 910i.
BT Audio works fine, once the devices are connected just press Src to get to BT Audio and start playing from the phone. Unlike phone calls the phone does not initiate connection for audio playback.
I just orderd a Sony 990i to replace my Qtek.
I had the P990i for literally 2 days. I immediately sold it. With the latest ROM, the unit is slow and menu is clunky. I use Direct Push and with the RoadSync software, it's buggy. Hardly any software available.
Things I did like about the P990, it's slim to hold and light (but it's all thin plastic). The camera is the best I ever used on a phone. Sharp and clear. Bluetooth with the HBH-DS970 headphones were sweet but the volume wasn't as loud as I wanted. Screen was crisp with the smaller screen.
For phone features and bluetooth, it was excellent. For PDA use, it was useless (to me, anyways).
Overall, I'm glad I got the chance to play with it - now, I know how the unit performs and I won't have that 'wish I had it feeling'.
Good luck.

Jason langridge over at his MSDN Windows Mobile Blog Site recently posted some info about the new Parrot MK6000 Car Kit which incorporates A2DP Bluetooth Audio streaming. Its not exactly what you are after but its a good example of an out of box solution.
See Jason's post here: http://blogs.msdn.com/jasonlan/archive/2006/09/30/778362.aspx

Bluetooth and Wizard
The Wizard can do all those things. As you can see from this thread there is a bit of incompatibility with the Pioneer 9800BT but it does work fully once manually connected.
For the PC all u need is a bluetooth adapter, I believe Windows already provides the headset profile so the phone can play to the PC also.
You may need to upgrade your ROM on the Wizard to get A2DP support.
I am not aware of a memory limit on the phone, I have a 2gig miniSD, the only reason I dont have a 4gig is because I couldnt find one at the time.
9800BT does not dial spaces
I worked around the dial from phone book issue with the deck by changing all of my contact numbers to solid numbers with no spaces or symbols. I used a scripts of course, I have almost 100 contacts.
I've been looking at the Alpine BT adapter for use with an Alpine head unit. It apparently supports handsfree, A2DP and AVRCP. Anyone here tried it?
anyone tested the MK6000???

BT Headset works for calls but not music??

I have a 8125 with a Nokia BH-600 bt headset. It works great when talking on the phone but I really want to listen to music too...
Is it possible to play music through the Nokia BT headset?
I have Media Player, Sound Recorder, and the CORE movie player but none of them play sound through the Nokia BH-600 headset! I also have a Moto H700 if that makes a difference.
Thanks!
I am not an expert on this topic so someone can correct me if im wrong, but you cannot play music through your bluetooth headset unless the headset is A2DP compatible. You also need the A2DP hack that can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=263735&page=7
Anyway, to get an A2DP headset, look on eBay; you can normally find them for around 60-80 shipped, for a quality one. The hack is a cab file that just needs to be installed before pairing the headset.
Hope that helps.
Being dumb here... how does this hack work?
I posted the link in my above post. Basically, just download the hack, copy it over to you phone, and click on it using file explorer and it will install. I am pretty sure it just adds to registry tweaks and DLL certificates, but I am not 100% sure. All i know is that is works great! After the install and a soft reset, when you pair a A2DP headet, it will have the option for setting as wireless stereo. Take a look at the thread above for more information.
Ah, so then any audio that that gets produced on the phone gets streamed on to the BT headset?
Sounds promising. I was wondering if there was a way to get navigation commands to go through my car BT kit.
I also wanted to be able to do that, as I have a bluetooth speakerphone in my car. I do no think this is possible with just a regular bluetooth headset or speakerphone.
However, I do think if you have an A2DP headset the navigation sound will come through. I am not sure if your car kit is a speaker phone or a headset, but if you prefer a speakerphone in the car (as I do), I highly doubt it's possible, because I dont think anyway speakerphone is A2DP enabled. Nevertheless, people on this forum have done more amazing things so search around, you may find something.
And yes you are correct, after the pairing, any audio that gets produced by your phone will come via the headset (hence my thinking for navigation working with A2DP headsets)
Hmm, i have got a parrot ck3000. Not sure if it is A2DP compatible. Is this hack/cab file uninstallable? lol, im asking so many questions! I think i might just give it a try.
Heres a question (as these forums are a mess and i can never find anything), Is A2DP included in any of the latest roms? I am running the AKU2 rom that t-mobile last released, so i assume that some of the cooked roms are miles better.
your options
There are 2 ways to approach this issue:
1.) A2DP hack or updated ROM (for the best possible sound quality) needs an A2DP compatible headset/headphones or home BT transceiver.
2.) Mono BT hack for BT headset (you lose Voice Dial) has the lesser sound quality of the mono audio channel (the one you hear when on a phone call) See this tutorial for more details and options.
I highly recommend any and all BlueTooth articles by Menneisyys one of our Moderators.
See his articles on BlueTooth and more here.
Awsome! Thanks for the link to that article. I will give the BTAudioNav a try to see if this works how i want it to! Coolio! Thanks
Ah balls it. It looks like its just another constant streaming program. Shame, i would have loved to just get the commands to be said and then the radio wont be contantly cut out.
my 2cents
Just installed this .cab on my wizard (o2 xda mini s, G3 un-updated at all.)
Works a treat, I'd foolishly bought a a2dp headset without checking compatibility and now it is compatable.

USB Radio Transmitter

Does anyone know of a Kaiser compatable radio transmitter for the Kaiser so I can use it like an itrip and play my tunes from my kaiser in my car over a radio frequency?
anybody have any experience of this thing:-
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/11-Pin-Mini-U...=item150134591006&_trksid=p3286.c33.m20.l1116
Any old usb/headphone splitter will allow you to do this, as the FM transmitter element simply plugs into the 3.5mm headphone jack - FM transmitters are, notoriously, pants though but if its your only option, I would suggest getting your own splitter and then getting a different FM transmitter that has digital tuning, so you can select any frequency, and not be limited to 4.

You know what I am looking for... I would love to see a Bluetooth FM Transmitter. Then you can just enter your car, and wirelessly play your music through your phone. Anyone know if these even exist? I did a brief google search but it looked like everything was either a car kit for hands free talking or just people wishing they had one kind of like me.
Universal Belkin adapter.
Personally I use the belkin 3.5 inch universal FM transmitter.
the audio quality isnt grand but its very passable.

I've been using that for my PSP and zune for a while now and i'll be using it
with my kaiser as soon as I get my miniUSB to 3.5 adapter in the mail.
I recomend it.
Say that again...
Hi...
FAO Captainsensible/JPHCCFC or others with experience on this...
I'm wanting to do the same thing but have absolutely no technical knowledge about this kind of thing.
I have a Mk4 VW Golf with the standard VW fit, quad speakers radio.
What products would I need to buy to get my Kaiser playing through the car speakers, and, how would I need to set it up.
Links to the products and detailed advice in plain English welcomed & much appreciated.
TIA.
Regards,
Mark.
Another option would be this, http://www.techlore.com/article/10247/How-To-Play-an-iPod-or-Other-Portable-MP3-Player-Through-a-Car-Stereo/.
I think the quality is better than the FM transmitter.

I use an iTech-clip connected to a cassete player adapter normally for a walkman. Gives me BT stereo music and when clipped to the sunvisor acts as a hands-free automatically cutting off the music when a call comes in.

It took me a while to track one down! But I finally did and I just purchased on off ebay... It is from a brand called Scosche. It sells new for US$90.
It functions as a Bluetooth Reciever (for bluetooth devices with Audio Push, such as the Keiser...) and as a hands free. It plugs into the car power, and I understand it has a built in battery for portability. I should be receiving it later next week, I'll update on how it works

I was one of the first in the states to get the venturi and have been using it for several weeks now. The quality is great and it is the only device I know of that transmits caller ID to the FM radio via RBDS. It is not the cheapest, but only thing i know that transmits FM, charges phone, and does bluetooth calling/stereo. (not to mention it works flawlessly with the Tilt/kaiser)
Hi,
Just saw this on google:
http://www.aftermarketcellular.com/ic/UNIJABRAA120S.html
Most new radios have a plug in the back for external CD or other audio, just connect this and you dont need an FM transmitter.
Good luck...
I have a Monster Icarplay for the ipod. I am wondering if there's any way of modding it to use on my kaiser. I know the ipod connecter is just a modified usb connector - so I am wondering there is some sort of adapter that goes from ipod connecter to regular usb. I don't think I can just snip off the end and solder in a reg. usb because there are controles on the ipod connecter plug. Any thoughts?

I'm browsing around trying to decide what unit to purchase. The thing I like about the Motorola is I do not have to plug it into my cigarette lighter (other than for a charge, of course).
But, I had purchased a Motorola speaker phone a couple years ago and the sound quality for the person on the other end was pretty bad. With this sound quality for me as the listener would probably be OK, as it would go through the radio.
Has anyone used one of these yet that can report back?
The positive feedback from Venturi on the Verizon one sounds good.

what I want to know is ...
how does it transmit to the FM wirelessly though ???
and if there's another radio nearby happened to be scanning stations ... will it also pick up my private conversation ??
I can understand when this is routed through the cigarette lighter plug ... but wireless ??? and they don't specify the type of FM radio ... so I just assumed any regular car FM stereo ...
anyone for answers ???
Good questions.
It seems to me that it transmits to the FM device via BlueTooth; then the FM device transmits to the radio over FM frequency.
And I assume that if someone in a car nearby (I don't think it will transmit very far) happens to tune the the same FM frequency you are using, that they in fact would pickup your conversations.
I would like to be able to have the bluetooth transmit my stereo to my radio, and if I have on a BT headset, have my conversations go there. But, I'm not sure that is possible.

Does anyone have a pioneer deh 7900bt?

Hey guys,
Does anyone have experience with this head unit?
I am getting this head unit in the mail and i wanted to know if it works as advertised with the mogul. I want to use it as a BT speakerphone and stream sirius.
Are there any tricks or tips for use with this head unit?
I am REALLY excited about it but I want to be prepared for it in case there are things I need to know.
Thanks guys!
Pioneer Premier DEH-980BT
I have the DEH-980BT (first model with bluetooth). Make sure you pair the pioneer head unit with your phone and after pairing register the phone in the pioneer unit (read the pioneer instructions) if you still have problems change the following registries in your phone
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\SYS\COD
Change to 5898764
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway\BTAGPBModule
Change OEM to \Windows\BthAGPhonebook.dll
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway\BTAGExtModule
Change OEMAGW.DLL to \Windows\vcbthag.dll
You might still have problems setting both hands free and wireless stereo at the same time. I only have only hands free set on my phone and its works great.
I have the DEH-7900BT and it works flawlessly. I have to initiate the pair from the phone in order to get things setup, but once I have paired them the phone auto connects every time I get in the car and both the handsfree and stereo audio work as advertised. AVRCP even works correctly.
speaking of pioneer HU
has anyone tried the OEL screensaver studio appz ?
is there a site of people's creation available on the net ?
i can't find anything about it.
BTW, i have the 980BT unit and its top notch !
wait, so this radio has bluetooth streaming music right??, because i bought the Pioneer DEH 6250 BT and it doesn't have that function so i sold this 6250 to my friend and i was looking for this one 7900 because i thought it would bluetooth streaming music audio
why would one not use a cheap FM transmitter to do the audio to stereo? They charge the phone, use less power, and are like 4$ on amazon?
FM Transmitters SUCK!
1. Audio quality is crap compared to BT2
2. No A2DP support with a FM transmitter (on screen track info on your stereo, track fwd/back control, etc)
3. Noisy interference with other cars, towers etc.

Bluetooth for audio output?? Can't get to work!

Hi,
I've got a 3xx series Plantronics headset and i've got a question about using it for more than JUST calls.
Can I use it for watching movies?? at the moment, when the movie plays, it automatically goes to loudspeaker, even whilst paired.
I know of something called A2DP, but I'm not sure that my BT headset is that... Can I install something or change some setting to make the music/movie play through my present headset??
Thanks!!
A2dp is a stereo profile, should be active if you have a stereo headset and are listening to anything stereo on the phone. I've been having trouble getting A2DP to stay active on my phone as well, but I just read about a program called A2DP Toggle found Here seems to be working for me tho I'm not sure its what your looking for.
Well I don't own a stereo BT headset. Just a normal one-ear one.
I want to know if there is a way to port the movie/music sounds through it.
So I think its a bit different to your case. Anyone else?? Thanks
btw, I've used a simple bluetooth headset with my PC before and it ported all the sounds from the PC to my earpiece... so technically it should be the same case for phone? I hope there's a way...
