Curious if anyone else is having quiet distant audio on Qik with the latest "Qik for evo" in the android market? I am presently running the sprint lovers 2.2 rom. Can anyone confirm how qik has been running in general lately? Esp if you are on another rom.
Thanks!

Greetings fellow Droid Incredible users. I am interested in getting some information on the possibility of us modifying the bluetooth specifically in the Sense version Roms. The reason for this inquiry is I have noticed that wiimote works with Cyanogenmod on my droid incredible confirmed today in testing. It does not on the 2.2 Froyo Sense version. I'd like to keep sense and stock but have the full bluetooth capabilities of Cyanogen. I know this is a specific issue and that loading a non HTC sense rom is a work around. How hard would this be to do? Is it even possible?
thanks for your time and happy modding. Have to say these roms are a blessing.
Might I suggest the 3.21.605.1 RUU leak?
Some people are having doubts as this will be the offial OTA to be released tomorrow, but it is, says the same software verison on the Verizon page.
Bluetooth working peachy for me!
I tried the wiimote. No dice. Cook something up and I will be grateful.

Bluetooth works but doesn't fully support all the things it should like HID and SPP profiles. It's clear there is a difference in the bluetooth packages and I don't understand why.

Well since we are going THAT far lol, I know on HTC's dev website there is the 2.2 Bluez driver that you can take a look at if you have any development background.
http://developer.htc.com
HTC Incredible BlueZ Source Code (Froyo MR)
I wouldn't even know where to begin as far as that goes, hope that points you in the right direction.
I appreciate the responses guys. Keep them coming. I will be looking into a possible mod with the latest leak but a modified bluetooth stack to resemble/replicate the full functionality of the Cyanogen mod bluetooth on the Droid Incredible.
This potentially could add more functionality to bluetooth:
Connection to more bluetooth keyboards and other devices
wiimote functionality for emulators
other applications.
Bluetooth SPP and HID profiles are often used in many car types including BMW, Mercedes, Volkswagon, etc. Some people have been posting on the HTC site that they have lots of issues with bluetooth staying paired or even not pairing at all.
I believe we are working with a pre 2.1 Eclair bluetooth stack that HTC never bothered to update. Perhaps this breaks the Sense UI and they don't want to do the coding work for it work. I will continue to look for some answers.
My understanding is that there is something in Sense that does not get along with newer stacks.
Well how does the Cyanogenmod rom get the bluetooth stack working? Is it a simple file replacement or something complicated?
By not using sense. Something in the UI causes the broken bluetooth with the wiimotes.

This is what I am curious about as well.

I'm cheerfully bumping this thread. I do no want a wiimote on my Dinc (rooted with leaked 2.2 ROM), but I do have a dire need to support Bluetooth mouse and keyboard on my Dinc.
I do appreciate sense and I have applied cyanogen on my wife's D1.. which is perfect, for being on a Moto Droid..
So I'm with xarthos... i just want full BT features on my semi-stock Dinc.
on a side note... yet another reason is the fact that the BT audio quality in sense based roms sucks...
We setup cm6 on one inc, left the other with plain sense... even my wife could tell a difference in a blind listen test in the car.
almost like comparing a 64khz mp3 to a cd... massive sound quality difference.
Xarthos,
I hear many conflicting stories on htc bluetooth.
I understand htc has an incomplete broadcom chipset bluetooth stack in some models like the incredible. But this doesn't make sense since cm6 supports bluetooth just fine.
I can't really give you any useful help.
--But I do have $25 or more for the solution you describe.. Sense with bluetooth.

This has been a consistant test for me as I jump around between ROMS due to the fact that I like to play my DINC emulators with a WiiMote (Yes, I'm nerdy enough to carry one in my backback when I commute). It's been pretty consistant that all the Sense ROMS don't work while the Senseless roms do.
Confirmed working:
CM6
Ruby 1.1.0 and 1.1.1
Confirmed not working:
SR 3
Virt 2.6 & 2.7
Leaked 2.2
Stock 2.1
Not Tested:
SR3 Vanilla
Why we couldn't take the bluetooth stack from one of the working ones and put it on a Sense one, I don't know. I'm honestly not knowledgeable enough to even attempt it nor know anyone who has. I've actually a little surprised this subject isn't brought up more, I'm guessing most people either don't use bluetooth or it works enough for their needs.
BUMP!
Is anyone looking into porting/adapting the CM6 BT Stack for sense ROMS?
I tried messing around with it, but am still having problems... I have a semi-flashable zip in progress if anyone can help me figure out what to do next.
Hello guys,
I am running DJ Steve 1.4.2 rom on a Dell streak - unlocked, EU. Everything is running smoothly with one exception:
People are constantly complaining that they don't hear what I am saying. So, how can I boost the mic level? Have someone else had that issue?
im running 1.4.6 and have exactly the same issue..common steve make your wonders the time of 1.4.7 has arrived

Okay, so the only thing that has me still thinking that WM6.5 is still superior to Android is the depressing quality of A2DP in the Android builds for the HD2.
I mean, granted it's higher quality than listening to music via the hands-free profile, but it is woefully lacking when compared to the A2DP coming from WM6.5 on my HD2.
I found a thread of Evo owners who are similarly upset over this, and there seems to be one ROM variant out there that addresses this for Evo owners, so surely this must be something that can be fixed on the ROM's for the HD2? (also, RIP Leslie Nielson)
The thread is here
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9888
Has there been any research into what (if anything) users can do to better the quality of A2DP on Android?
Yes.. thank you for sharing this issue with us.. i hope google will fix this bug.. it just gives some white-noises in a music! i can't describe it
EDIT: Check this out, someone actually found a way for it!
is this wat u mean? or im showing something off (fast forward to 1:38)

while reading this issue 9888.. i found out that it was fixed on CM 6.1
Can any developer take a look at this for the sense roms?

Check out this thread! Loads of us have been asking the same question for a while now. I wonder if it's fixed in Gingerbread...anyone tried it?
I have tried Cyanogen's new Gingerbread build on my HD2 and for the first time, I heard crisp, quality A2DP over my phone. It was awesome. However, I want to continue using my Froyo sense build so really would like to see a fix. It's possible....we just need a genius or 2 to work it out! I wonder if Cyanogen is contactable?
I am using the NAND stock Desire ROM on my HD2, and my AD2P is working flawlessly with my Sony Xplod unit in my car. HTC phones always worked good for me.

My wife is trading up to a Rezound and I would like to load a ROM on her phone that would turn it into a media player for my son. Does anyone know of such a ROM? Would like it to not have a working radio so he would not accidental call 911 and obviously don't need apps like messenger , dialer and bloatware. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Any rom will do... but Imo if you put aokp 29 on that i500, your wife will switch back to it over that rezound. 4g is about the only major advantage the Rezound has over tha fascinate. I doubt ICS source will ever be release and neither will s-off. Also many folks are having SMS issues with the Rezound, which is why Verizon discounted the POS already
I dug my old TMOUS HD2 out yesterday and (finally) deleted WinMo 6.5. Flashed Android KitKat (ChauTien CM 4.4.2 v2.0) to NAND and it looks beautiful. Everything I've tried so far on it works fine, except Netflix- app installs fine from Play store but when I run it I get "Sorry we could not reach the Netflix Service. Please try again later. (-9)". All the other phones, tablets & computers in the house can reach the Netflix server. I was hoping to make the HD2 my regular carry phone, but no Netflix is a dealbreaker for me.
Are there any good, stable Android ROMS out there that will give me Netflix support? If you know of some, pros/cons of each would be appreciated as well.
Thanks!
Hello Me, it's Me.
(I'm replying to myself, but really more for the benefit of future searchers)
After a lot more forum searching, it looks like HD2 Android & Netflix can be had if you're willing to install a Gingerbread ROM. Sadly, you can't use anything newer than that- IceCreamSandwich, JellyBean & KitKat ROMs just don't work with Netflix on the HD2. I don't know if anything past that might work as Lollipop hasn't been released yet at the time of this post. I'm currently using the ROM from this thread: [27 OCT 2012][MAGLDR/cLK]TyphooN CyanogenMod 7.2.0.1 v3.8.9[2.3.7][A2SD+][tytung r14] and Netflix works fine. Other Gingerbread ROMs may work as well, but this is the only one I've tested so far.
For the benefit of future readers, I tried the steps listed in this thread: [Edit][Fix for issues with GPS and other apps] HD2 Netflix Master Hack, both the edits to build.prop and installing the .apk for old Netflix app. The old app (as I expected) didn't do anything but force me to install the current app from the Play Store. The changes to build.prop didn't affect anything with the Netflix service but certainly made the rest of my phone buggy. So, don't bother with that stuff, it's outdated and doesn't do anything, or at least not anything good.
After the above, I started from scratch (did a full wipe and re-flashed the ROM). This time I just went straight to the Play Store and installed the Netflix app. It works! :good:
I don't know how to tell if I'm getting Netflix' highest-quality stream, all the old threads I've been wading through seem to indicate that the Netflix apps at that time would only feed the HD2 a lower quality stream. But the app I just got from the Play Store is obviously a much newer app- it shows the new Netflix Logo they recently introduced, and it supports Netflix Profiles, which didn't exist back when Gingerbread was a current OS. The picture quality I'm getting is definitely acceptable to me- it's not as nice as on my HTC One S, but that's no surprise.
TL;DR: If you want Netflix on HD2, install a Gingerbread ROM and download the App directly from the Play Store.
