ROM Upgrade for XDAII - news??

Does anyone have an update from O2 on the availability of the ROM upgrade for BT profiles? It's been nearly 3 months that they've been saying "any day now ...."!

Hey, i know how you feel. Ive only had my XDA2 since the end of February and its driving me nuts waiting for a ROM update to fix the Bluetooth problems... :evil:
by the way, how do you know the ROM update WILL actually fix the Bluetooth in the XDA2 ? have you read it somewhere ? :?

Yes, you do have a point there :?

O2 backup and support for XDA is useless
O2 is haphazard at the least in its updates and general support for the XDA well at least in the Uk they are so dont hold your breath.
The new website for example is a nightmare for getting information out of and as for support on the phone they pass you to xda warranty repairs.

have you tried pocket bluetooth tools? (http://www.angeltowns.com/town/bluetooth/) i THINK it claims to fix the BT stack problems. . . but i'm not so sure . . . maybe you dont have to wait for an upgrade =)
hope this helps.
Cheers,
Carlo

bluetooth tools works ok, its the only way i can get my gps to work

Pocket Bluetooth tools works fine, but it doesnt let me use the Bluetooth to send files or phonebook contacts as theres no profiles for it to happen in the current version.
I emailed the author about a month ago and didnt get a reply. I emailed him again last week and got an automated email saying he was on vacation until the end of March.
Im starting to wonder if he's having problems with his next version which he said he'd like to support file and contact transfers.

I doubt he is having problems, bearing in mind its a free program and takes many many hours of programming and effort I would assume he is a busy man. Even the makers of Navman suggest using his path which leads me to believe that he could charge a lot of money for his programming skills. It would be much better if O2 addressed the problem instead taking into account the fact that they released a crippled and brain damaged product to market.

Amen
I spent 3 hours installing 1.60 last night and reconfiguring the machine. Does it improve anything for headset and handsfree profiles? No. bog all. Handshaking with a CK3000 is now even worse.
Waste of b****y time.

Streaming audio part of avi

Hi all,
I'm a massive fan of this site and tell anyone who has a HTC device to check it out. This is my first post though so here goes.
I have an XP laptop on which I watch movies mostly as avi's. I have the Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 which won't work on my laptop as it doesn't have A2DP. What I would therefore like to do is to watch the movie on my laptop and stream the audio portion over my wifi network to my Jasjar so I can listen to it through my headset.
Is this possible? If so how?
I will point out at this point that, while I'm not a complete muppet, I have never had anything to do with streaming of anysort so a tutorial might be useful. I have tried to figure it out using bits taken from several threads on this, and other, forums but so far with no luck. Ok so maybe I'm more muppety than I thought I was.
Yes I do know I could get some wireless headphones with a base that plugs into my laptop and do it that way, but where's the fun in that?
Any help gratefully recieved.

No replies
So what do you have to do to get a reply around here. Always seems easy for others. They ask a question and somebody answers. Guess nobody has an answer. Now thats really diassapointing.

i think response problem is a combination of 2 things: you have a really rare question (i didn't search, but from the looks of it it is), and you didn't wait long enough for that kind of question.
I don't know what type of bluetooth services the uni supports to other devices other than serial.

Apologies
Thanks for te reply skywriter and sorry for rushing people. I didn't realise what I was asking was so hard. I just thought it was me being stupid. Well if anyone does have an answer I would be happy to ear it.

Worth Buying A hermes(Vario II) Now ? or wait for Kaiser ?

Hi,
What u guys recommend is it too late now ?...When it's Successor Kaiser will be out ?...Keem reply coming..
Thanks in advance Cheers mates

Bump........

No One care To reply in the community of 200,000

depends on what you will be using it for really, if you want a stable bluetooth connection for a car kit and you dont want to be rebooting the phone daily then in my experience i would not buy one. If i new about these problems before i got mine then i definately would not of brought it.
it does have a whole host of features though so i suppose you cannot have everything.
If they sort these problems out which i keep hearing they will then the phone will be worth having.
I will now go and see what the Kaiser has to offer as might be time to switch already from this rubbish. (Annoyed as you can tell and only my opinion, due to the fact that car kit works fine on my wizard and no rebooting of phone. This one does not work correctly with car kit, people cannot hear me speak, and phone has to be rebooted 2-3 times a day, and yes the phone has been replaced and it is the same problems.)
zomig

there is nothing wrong with my car kit as my wizard (o2 xda mini s ) works 100% with it, this is an issue with the Bluetooth stack on this device and has been mentioned more times than i care to remember.
It quite simply does not work. It is also supposed to be fixed when they eventually release a new rom. But i wont hold my breath.

If you really need the keyboard, then, the Hermes might prove OK (albeit, if I were you, I'd REALLY wait!). If you don't need it, wait or get he Trinity - the latter is much better IMHO than the Hermes (built-in GPS and, hopefully, FM radio).

Strange My new Hermes works better with my Bluetooth Headset than my wizard did. Sound is clearer and louder. and on my wizard when I would answer a call the caller would get a earsplitting screech as I pres the answer button. This is not a prob with the TYTN

Thanks u all guys .....really appreciate it
I don't care abt Bt Problem will have a look on trinity does t-mobile rlease trinity ?

How to change status in Fring??

use Fring for windows mobile on my Trinity.
It's quite convenient to have so many different messengers in one unique soft.
But I can't find a way to change my status from online to let's say, away, invisible, busy etc.
Anyone can tell me how to do?
Or maybe someone can confirm that it is impossible to do it?

bump, as having searched for it i still cant find an answer!

Since then I found the answer on Fring website:
There is no way (so far) to change status on Fring on windows mobile system.
The function is available for symbian systems but not for PPC.
It is supposed to be implemented in future versions, but hasn't been released so far.

I´m sorry dude but this is toooooo much....the thread is named Trinity Mobile 6....this forums are gone to far.....Sorry if I am mean to you...but come on....use flipping Google....
I don´t care if your xda has wm6,don´t try to get any help related to Fring....I know you do whatever you want...and you are free to ask.

1)
you are not mean to me since your post is irrelevant and meaning-less, so for me it doesn't even exist.
2)
I know it is a wm6 thread, but if you check thouroughly, you'll notice there is always reference in this thread to some common soft (such like instant messengers), and even more particuliar ones such as vibrators etc. and comments and help come though.
3)
when I posted this topic, I did the same in the General thread of the forum, just in case, and no more help came by that time.
So I guess it is not a matter of thread, but just a lack of interest, knowledges or time.
4)
In any case I found the answer and since unlike you I'm not unhappy enough in life to become mean on such little things, therefore It was my pleasure to help Andehh a hand, or anyone else who would come across this information about Fring's version.

If your Pioneer car stereo which you bought at Walmart is broken, do you go to your car dealer for warranty, or to Walmart?
Think about it!

Who talked about warranty?
It was only a matter of functionality ON WM6.
Therefore, there is not only questions about the ROM itself but also about the way it works on our devices and its compatibility with some softs.
Just exchange of information and experience. It's not about seeking for seller responsability but more about something called free help and exchange.
Something u never heard about, I know.
Doesn't matter, Andehh and I understood and had that exchange.
No flooding about your car warrant please!

GPS stopped working (HTC HD Mini) - It has always worked, but now is dead - HEEELP!!!

Dear friends,
I was so happy with my HTC HD Mini, running WinMo 6.5, with the HTC touchflo interface...
Capacitive touch screen, nice cpu, good memory, so sensitive, small and great...the most perfect cell phone i ever had...and i had all the windows mobile devices, since "cassiopeia", before the first Windows Mobile 2003 devices...yes, i had all microsoft mobile OS's...
I was so happy with everything that my small gadget gave to me...I used the GPS lots of times...it help on lots of travels...allways worked very well, sincronizing very quick with the satelites...
But few days ago, i tried to activate the GPS (i'm using iGo since i bought the phone) and....nothing happened...The GPS just don't work...don't find any satellite...
While the device is search available satellites, it show the busy satellites as red dots, and the available as yellow dots...as soon as it finds enough satellites, the gps trace the route and lead me through the way...
But few days ago i tried to use my GPS and nothing happened...the device just don't search anything...looks like the GPS receiver is broken...i don't know what happened...Maybe it felt down on the floor and break the GPS receiving antenna?
Does anyone here already had the same issue?
I'm desperate! It is my baby, my beloved phone, my third hand...
Does anyone can help me? Please? I'm almost begging!
I already tried the hard reset twice...nothing happened...i'm so sad............................
Thanks i advance,

Hi!
Have you tried android in the meantime? If GPS is deactivated in android it will also not work in windows mobile. At least that was the case for older android releases.

My Dear,
My phone is originally windows mobile, and i luv it...I really don't like android...by the way, it drains battery and make the phone slow (my friend have an HTC Aria, the same HTC HD Mini but using Android, and it sucks...mine is much faster...mine never crashes, never get slow...everything is fast all the time...thats why i like it so much...the first problem was that, about the GPS).
But, seppe82, thanks anyway...
I think my problem is a physical problem...maybe when felt down on ground the gps receiver disconnected...i don't know...
Does anyone had that problem in the past?
Damn...my phone used to be so perfect, and now i'm completely desapointed...
Does anyone sugest anything?
thanks

If it is a physical problem and you didn't use android on your phone I don't know the solution unfortunately. I just remember that somebody reconnected his gps antenna but I can't remember how he did it and whether it was mentioned in this forum or not.
Now I've found that topic and I see you already posted there. I hope there you get help. By the way: I also prefer wm over android on hd mini, since I'm not so keen in games and other apps but on a fast reliable OS
Good luck!

Thanks seppe82,
I really luv my WM6.5 HTC HD Mini...is the first problem i have, and the first bad thing i ever said about this phone...
It is still the best phone i ever saw and ever had.
There are faster WM6.5 and WP7 phones, but none is so fast AND SMALL...
I can use my Mini with only 1 hand...and can drive and navigate...the size is perfect...
My sister has an HTC Ultimate...is a beaultiful and top phone, but it's oversized...My hands looks small when i'm holding it...for her, as a women, she carries on her handbag, and it's no problem, but for me, that carries on the pants pocket , is too big.
I still believe that, someday, some company will launch a better phone with maximum 3.5" display (I heard about the Nokia Lumia 800 - first nokia Windows phone - but is too soon to talk about it) ...while it doesnt happens, Mini still the best!
Well...hope somebody can help me...hope somebody knows how to "reconect the gps antenna"...
The video that was posted on the other thread doesnt talk about the gps antenna...it worked for nothing...and the user that mentioned this doesnt answer me...hope he doesnt left the forum forever...
Pleaaaaaaaaaase, sombody help meeeeeeeee...Don't let my Mini die...Pleaaaaase!!!

u will better go to a HTC service or any other phone service instead of whinning here..
this forum is mostly about ROM's and software stuff,not hardware so if you have hardware issues go to the places i mentioned above
