Can't use Bluetooth headset with analog headphones plugged in. - Mogul, XV6800 General

I used to be able to connect my Mogul to my car stereo, via the analog headphone jack, and then take/make calls using my bluetooth headset all at the same time.
But after updating the firmware in my Mogul (I think it was the upgrade to WM 6) I was no longer able to do this. And now everytime I need to use the phone, I have to first unplug the analog connection in order to hear, and be heard by, the caller.
Is there a registry fix for this problem?

Hello...
Is anybody having this same issue?
Anyone...anyone...?

Yeah, I'm having a very similar problem. I don't know if it is related to a specific radio or ROM, though. I plug in an audio device (speaker mount for the car) through the mini-USB and the phone won't take audio from my BlueTooth headset any more.
I'm sorry, I don't have a solution for you, but wanted to let you know that you're not alone.

Glad to hear that I'm not the only one with this issue.
It would stand to reason that if a software update created this problem then logically there should be a software fix (most likely a registry edit) that can correct it.
I've looked through the registry and can't find an obvious key that might be related to prioritizing audio input/output as it relates to analog or bluetooth connectivity.
Its also possible that I'm over-thinking this and the fix may be a simple configuration tweak.

Any of you PDA gurus have an answer for this one?

Requesting Help for a Bluetooth Workaround

Whilst we all wait to see if the HTC ROM with AKU 3.?? materializes, and if it does, whether the Bluetooth stack is improved, I would appreciate some help on a work around to improve in car hands free performance.
I have recently acquired an HTC Y-cable and a Martin Fields audio plug adapter, and I can now plug my TyTN into the Aux input in my car's sterio system and hear phone calls over my car sterio. However, as you would expect when I envoke my Bluetooth hands free device the sound is diverted away from my sterio and back to the Bluetooth device.
I thought to search for a Bluetooth Mic only but have not located one trawling on the net so far.
Is there a known registry hack that will stop the Bluetooth device from redirecting the sound to it, but still permit the mic to work? That way at least I could hear the other party with clarity even if my voice is not clearer. At least that would solve half the problem of the unsatisfactory Bluetooth performance for those that could use it.
Thanks.

O2 Atom life FM Radio problem?

Hi There,
I did search many places and many sites on internet but don't know how to overcome this issue. Herein my problem:
Actually, I am using a O2 Atom Life Pocket PC phone and I want to hear FM radio on Bluetooth headset (Wireless and Handsfree feature) but I cannot use Bluetooth Handsfree to hear FM. My problem is When my bluetooth device was actually paired with my Pocket PC then I open FM Radio player it shows "FM Radio requires Stereo Headset to be connected to function". Please note that I can play and hear MP3 music normally with my Bluetooth handsfree device.
Please tell me is there anyway to overcome this problem? Or I need to make any configuration or any software for this to hear FM radio with bluetooth handsfree.
I am look forward to getting your reply soon.
Best regards,
I think it depends on the fact that the FM-Radio needs an antenna. And since this is provided by the cable of the headphone it cannot work without it.
Thanks for your response. I am still looking for the others ways to overcome this inconvenience. I hope I can find some tools, registry hack or software to fix it. If you guys have anyway to do this please share me.
Best regards,

I'm afraid that there will never be a possibility to "hack" this purely physical problem. There won't be another possilbility as to "simulate" the presence of a headset. Try the following: Buy a 2.5 mm headphone-jack and solder a single wire to pin 1,2 3 or 4 (I don't know which one is the right one for the antenna). Note that by inserting the jack the speakers will be muted anyway. I'm not sure whether the bluetooth function will be influenced by that, but I don't think so.
Good luck!
Sorry about resurrecting an old thread, but I wonder about something of the same. I'm gonna buy one of those Motorla S9 headsets, and I would like to use it for radio as well. Is it possible to use A2DP to listen to the radio, or can I only get regular low quality BT audio? I know it's possible to use the radio via BT if you use the BTAudio Toggle program (which I believe did origin here on the forum).

audio on phone n headset application

I would want/need an application w/c has a profile capability that will allow audios(call, microphone, mp3) to be redirected to both the wired earphone and at the same time spearphone or the phone itself, while the wired earphone is still plugged in. The audio needs to come out or the sound should come out on both the wired earphone and phone or speakerphone. I need this while driving and my wife needs to hear the message from the party being called or called upon. Or if I'm listening to a good music on my wired headset only, but later on would like to share it to everybody while driving again. I need to be able to toggle it easily. I've seen phoneweaver and phonealarm but these two does not fit the need describe above. If there is none existing, can somebody create this very simple app for my need? I'm willing to donate if ever. Btw, my unit is an O2 Xda Atom and I got this idea from the build in FM radio build in application that has this button w/c allows audio on both wired headset and phone. It does not work on calls and turning the radio always on drains the battery. And the wired headset acts as the antenna. Thanks in advance.

Bluetooth Audio over car kit

Not sure if this is the correct place to post this
I have just upgraded from a kaiser to the HD2. I have a Bury take and talk car kit installed so have replace the Kaiser cradle with the Universal Bluetooth cradle. The phone pairs ok, the volume is low over the car speakers but this was the same for the kaiser and I have found that bury sell an amplifier to boost the volume. So far so good.
My question now is is there any way for routing music and gps instructions over the bluetooth connection. Registry hack, app or whatever. I cant see that it cant be done. I have read bits on other threads / forums about routing to Bluetooth headsets, and im thinking this is similar.
Anyone got any good ideas? I havent installed or messed with much yet so am willing to try stuff and hard reset if required
If the carkit doubles as a bluetooth headset and no more, it will only support the protocol which enables you to place calls with the carkit, and route the audio and mic for the call over bluetooth. If you want an audio connection, be sure your carkit allows for an A2DP connection - then you will get music and possibly also voice streams via bluetooth out of your car speakers.

Possible to send all audio over bluetooth?

I've spent days searching and trying all sorts of tweaks but I can't get anything to work. Can anyone PLEASE help!
I use Tomtom 7 and I've always sent the voice instructions to the bluetooth speaker in my bike helmet (just a handsfree paired item). I've previously done this on HTC devices with BTAudio and a one line registry tweak. Can anyone offer a solution to send all the audio to a bluetooth handsfree on the HD2?
I really hope someone can help, I've got the HD2 setup just right except for this last remaining item.
Many thanks,
i have the same problem...
@noony i think u have already enabled in bt setting the option "manage system audio in handsfree device" if u didnt...try that
for me doesnt work maybe its a headphone problem i see a sort of "fhhh" when any sound is played on phone but still come out from the speeker
another issue... every time i start a call with bt the volume is at the lower level..internal and headphone too! and the last is very strange because with my artemis didnt do

Yes I've tried the "manage system audio in handsfree device" option. I can get some background noise on the headsets (I'm trying with a Scala Rider and Motorola 700 & 850) but I never manage to get any sound.
Can anyone please offer a solution? It's a big disappointment for me if this isn't possible. Any suggestions welcome, many thanks.
My Observations
I pared it with my BMW and for the life of me cant ger any audio (music) over bluetooth ( the phone works fine) I then tried it on a $20 bluetooth earpiece I ocassionally use for the phone and guess what I can play music over it fine.
I tried and tried again in the car but could not get it to work.
I think some bluetooth devices will not work. Is there a different specifiaation for bluetooth ir BT1 and BT2 ??
I havent checked into this yet.....

It gives me some hope that you've got it to work with one bluetooth device. Can you please let me know exactly what you did to get the $20 bluetooth earpiece to work?
Thanks,
yeah that was my idea but without a stereo bt device i cant try to myself...i ordered to vodafone one with some of my tons of points...3 weeks and no answer!
I had the same issue and on my old phone, the HTC Touch HD, I used the following program to my satisfaction:
BTAudio
On my HTC HD2 however this doesn't seem to work anymore. :-(
it does the same thing of the inbuild bt option on hd2 its just a "quick link" to place on the bar
anyone of u have any problem with bt device volume? before i have an Artemis and 3 different device i used the device volume was every time the one i choose...now every time a new call starts phone volume its right but device volume jump to minimum level and every time i have to press + button like as i'm playing videopoker to dont miss fist seconds of a conversation
Works fine with Jabra 3030, all audio over it, music, system sounds and calls.
Maybe it's only working for bluetooth devices that are setup as stereo. Can anyone please offer a solution here?
I've installed a 6.5 rom (dutty v7 - thank you) on my HD and after a sprite restore (level 2) bluetooth audio divert works fine. Although I notived that the bluetooth options remained the old settings (possibly due to my backup restore) and the divert was done using the BTAudio. Sorry to keep asking but if anyone can shed light on this.
Is it possible to tweak the HD2 so that audio can be sent to any bluetooth headset/handsfree or is there some hardware limitation that stops this from being done?
I've tried every app and tweak that I can think of! Please can anyone help, even iof it's to let me know why this can't be done.
Thanks,
its what we all are trying to do......now i think its only a bt device problem...if it support bt2.1 and a2dp with edr seems to work all good....
i solved in car with headphone in the box...but bluetooth should be much and much better without any cable that always have to remove nodes (its the right word? sorry if not hehe)
I'm connecting to my HD2 using Jabra Stone, an A2DP headset. When I selected the stereo headset profile on the HD2, it redirected all system sounds to the headset: reminders, SMS alert, soundtrack for videos, audio player....except phone ring. I used BT Audio over a non-A2DP headset before with Diamond2, but the ausio is very poor, and the connection drops very often. Since I changed to A2DP headsets, the Diamond2 and HD2 supports it out of the box - no hack needed.
So look for A2DP headsets if you want to redirect audio.
Thank you to everyone that has helped with replies. I've now got my answer. If the bluetooth device supports A2DP then it works! (just won't work with mono etc)
I've now tested my HD2 with over a dozen bluetooth devices ALL A2DP enabled headsets regardless of if they are cheap or expensive!
Thanks again for everyone taking the time to help.
I have an LG HBM-220 bluetooth and cannot put audio to in, only phone calls!
How can i manage to do it?
I blame it on the stupid Widcomm Bluetooth stack... If the HD2 used the better MS stack, BT would play nice with with more of our periphirals and apps
I can't use MSVC properly with BT either....
the solution is to go to the bluetooth settings, select your device and connect the stereo audio connection.
Way back, Microsoft decreed that ONLY the phone app could use a mono BlueTooth headset, although any audio could be redirected to a stereo A2DP headset.
In order to get around this you need to fudge the sytem with something like BTAudio or TekSoft's BlueAudio.
The latter worked on my XDA Orbits (1 and 2) but does not work on my Touch HD with Dutty's R6 ROM (WM 6.5) possibly because BlueAudio requires the Microsoft BlueTooth stack and I suspect Dutty's ROM has the Widcomm stack. But I could be wrong about that.
BTAudio sort of works on my Touch HD, but outgoing audio is speeded up like I've been breathing Helium.
So no current solution to yet another idiotic gotcha from Microsoft.

Hmmm. When I conect via gprs to youtube aps I can hear the voice in my mono headset (jabra 2020) but via wifi and computer as modem voice is only in phone speaker. So maybe we should look gprs or youtube aps reg tweek.
Guys
i have a nokia HB-100 headset and i'm experiencing all kinds of strange behavours
sometimes system sounds including music ...etc get directed to the headset and some other time it just directs calls no matter how hard i try thru soft resets or unchecking then checking the "play system sounds ..." option!
very strange, any insights about this? is there a tweak to go with or is it a known WM defect?
