All Bluetooth device Mic's dead

I hope someone is able to help me.
Okay I have the Wizard, upgraded to Wizard Mobile 6.
Shortly after, all my bluetooth devices (car kit, headset...) had their microphones die. In other words nobody could hear me when speaking through any kind of bluetooth.
I then flashed the Radio ROM to a different version, and bluetooth was repaired. But now the problem has returned for no reason.
Why does my Wizard's bluetooth audio in keep failing, yet its speaker works fine and I can hear other people?
Is there a recommended update to the Bluetooth Stack I can try?

I do have exactly the same problem. After flashing XDA Mobile 6 Release 3, microphone has worked for couple of days, and then suddenly died. Interesting, microphone is working with Notes but not with phone. I went back to
XDA Mobile 6 Release 2 for some other reasons (read: 2MB more free memory for critical application) but the problem with Bluetooth microphone remains. Radio is 2.25. Any advice?

There are also at least 3 people at the Wizard Mobile 6 thread with the same issue. Very surprised none of the experts here have been able to propose a fix. Makes the phone virtually worthless if you can't use it in the car etc.
As a workaround, I have found if you mute then unmute the phone volume, the issue is sometimes temporarily resolved for a short time. It always comes back though

I have been asked to join this thread. Per a PM:
We love the ROM you have provided, and are very thankful, however it was not until installing it that this issue arose. It does not seem fair to leave a number of people with a phone that is unusable for 'phone calls'.

I don't know what to tell you. If the rom doesn't work for you, then don't use it... Don't tell me its "not fair". I use MS Voice Command, and XM6r3 and have never seen this issue with my Bluetooth headset (Jawbone). I've also tested this out with a Plantronics Explorer 210 headset that I have and it has not problems with XM6r3 either. My A2DP headset (Spider) also works fine on XM6r3 with MS VC. I've stated this in the past when people have said they have BT issues on my rom. Sorry, but I can't reproduce it, so its hard for me to fix something that isn't broken for me.
Try this... Do a hardreset on your device (take a backup first if you want), then leave it as the base rom with NOTHING extra added. Run that way for a few days (how ever long it has taken before) and see if the problem happens again. If it doesn't then its not my rom but something being added to it (probably screwing with the registry someplace). If it does happen, then as I've stated before, I've seen a number of BT devices be flakey on WM6 (especially car kits). Try a different rom then. If someone with the problem can pin it down, I'll be happy to do what it takes to fix this issue if its something in the rom that is causing it.

Thanks mfrazz. What wasn't fair was not the bug, but that you had not responded to previous mentions of it, i.e. not fair to leave us with it. We love the ROM and put a lot of our life in your hands in a way, as we rely on our device so much for work and play. Hope you understand.
Now then, I have already tried a hard reset and the problem never occurs, until WM6 is put back on. Sure, 'use another ROM' is all very well, but we love yours - again, hope you appreciate the sentiment. If you're in a relationship, are you the kind of guy who tells a girl who loves you, 'find another boyfriend', or do you try to make it work
SO, I am wondering if this is related to the glitch you mention where sometimes when switching out of vibrate mode, the ring tone becomes muted. For that, your solution is to play the ringtone again, then it becomes unmuted.
Similarly, our Bluetooth devices mic's are being muted, and if we mute then unmute them again, then they become unmuted. A link that helps point you in the right direction?
Please note, this is not certain bluetooth devices being 'flaky', this is ALL devices. 4 at the latest count, including rock solid Nokia CARK7W car kits and Jabra headsets.
Some people put it down to MS Voice Command, which I have never installed. What does that program do, do you know, to cause the bug? Again I hope that might help point you in the right direction.
Please don't dump us Let's try to fix what is wrong in this relationship

BT problem solved?
CJSnet - not sure if you have resolved this. I was having the same problem and noticed people with reTouched dialer were not, so I loaded that dialer and the problems went away. I am using a Plantronics Voyager 510. Seems the problem might be with the standard dialer.
Hope this helps

Thanks, I'll give that a try. However WM6 has pretty much finished the Wizard for me, and I'm hoping to get a TyTN II soon as a replacement. Shame.

Bluetooth and HTC touch problems

Does anyone else have a problem with their Bluetooth and HTC touch? I have tried 2 motorola and a LG BT headset and no one can hear me, but I can hear them. I tried pairing and repairing. I deleted it and added it as a new device. I have even tried the BT with another phone and it works with that phone with no problems, so I know it's my phone. I even tried a hard reset. Does anyone have a solutoin to this problem? I have the latest ROM update from HTC's website for a Bell HTC touch. My motorola headset was working fine, but I think after the latest Bell ROM update it stopped. Does anyone else have this problem or can anyone suggest a solution? thanks. paul.

my jawbone did this but my plantanics 510 fine

My jawbone works fine but there's a problem using hands free connection with my '05 range rover. The phone and the truck connect but then the connection is dropped. My buddy has a motorola razor and his phone works great w/my truck. It appears to be my phone that's the problem. Any suggestions on this?
Thanks so much.

This thread is 7 months old...
What ROM are you running?

I am running the NFSFAN 6.5 rom V11 and have he same issue with a motorola BT headset.

edit: i just noticed that the initial question was about a newer ROM update and bluetooth, but ill leave my initial reply here, cuz i often look for solution in old posts, so if this can help anybody :
NFSFAN 6.5 rom V11 and bluetooth
i dunno, but my bluetooth stuff somehow works with the 6.1 update, if you cant find any working solution within an hour, id suggest using a "well tried and tested" ROM version, like the 6.1
i stopped picking the "latest and greatest" in cars, devices, apps, or O.S. for the last two years, and been living a whole lot happier since.
about my 6.1 bell mobility ROM and bluetooth :
i like to tweak my weapons alot, my htc touch has a 6.1 ROM update, and i use bluetooth everyday, and it KINDA works well, enough for me anyway...
listening to mp3 and flv everyday on the transit,
then switching at work on the audio dongle adaptor on the pc,
using an pair of sonorix bsh-100 ( foldable stereo headset + optional plug-in mike)
to me the thruth is that bluetooth is a ****ty technology, i love it, and it's well taught,
but the developpers quickly code ****ty interfaces to it.
my settings all work from htc touch to dongle, but i often have to connect the touch to the headset like up to 3 times, where it tells me its connected, but isnt, when i hear the beep, it means it actually IS.
same at work, connect sometimes once, twice, even four, it eventually connects.
it's isnt button wear off or bad contact, its just the code is ****.
i rented a SUV that had bluetooth, tried connecting my phone, worked first time, a week later we rented the same SUV model, and for the whole trip i wasnt able to connect at all... back at the rental we tested the SUV with the clerck htc touch ( nice coincidence ) it worked right away.
i want to add here that whenever i try to connect through bluetooth, it usually works the first time.
my point is, bluetooth creators did a fine innovative job, but werent supported by developpers.
test your bluetooth phone alot with friends owning bluetooth accessories, youll detect behaviors after a while, and will learn to know its "demons" !

V13 seemed to fix the issue
Just upgraded to V13, seems like BT works a lot better.
A bit on my history with BY, I just upgraded from a motorola V710, had a Moto Q for a few months too. Never had any issues with BT using the same Motorola BT earpiece, and varouis others through the last 5 years or so. Always worked like a champ, this was my first experience with BT issues.

Getting the Dell BH200 BT to work w/ the Fuze

I just recently acquired a stereo bluetooth headset from dell model number BH200 and so far the stereo music quality is superb, but the moment a call comes in or I pick up a call it immediately disconnects itself. My question would be if any of you guys have any experience with this issue. the Stereo bluetooth and handsfree profile are both set to active. Any suggestions or hints?

I'm going to go on a limb here and assume that you guys haven't had access to the aforementioned bluetooth and i'm short out of luck here... right?
p.s. SAY IT AINT SO!!!!

Hi, I also have the same headphones and the same problem - only on HTC Universal flashed with WM6.
I search a bit on Google and it seems that the problem is with MS Bluetooth stack - it was working correctly for WM5 (but no A2DP), now in WM6 A2DP works, but handsfree does not.
Right now I'm testing alternative BT stacks - started with UniBT (it's Broadcomm stack modified for Universal) - now A2DP works flawlessly (before that, it didn't), but handsfree/headphones mode does not. At least trying to receive the phone call doesn't turn the headphones off.

i tested my fuze with a jabra bt2010 and it works fine. I'd prefer to not carry 2 bluetooth devices so i'm trying to find a way for it to work. I've been suggested to use a widcomm bluetooth stack as well but i dont know how to change my stack. If anyone here does know how to do it, please do enlighten us.

It's been nearly a month so I'm going to bump this thread in hopes of someone might possibly have some insight into this.

Push/bump.
I got the S9 now, it works for both functions but craps out completely when i'm outside, really bad signal reception as well as "muffled sounds" according to my audiophilic and audiophobic friends.
I think it has to be something to do with the actual firmware inside the bh200 that is wreaking some unknown havoc.

Dell bluetooth headset BH200 not working with Sony Xperia X1i
I have a Dell Bluetooth headset model BH200 and in A2DP mode, works flawless but the moment it is used with handsfree mode for call, the connection is broken and the headset switches off itself. This headset works very well with other non WM6.1 devices. Any clues with anony one what should be done in this case, some people have suggested JETware Hands-free Extension , any one tried on this.

I actually gave up on the bh200 and got myself a jabra bt8010. it works like a charm and the sound is just as good as the bh200

Indeed... i used to have a WM device (Mio A501) and I had the WM6.1 Pro..
I bought this BT at that time and it didn't work on WM6.1 (it even didn't asked me the PIN to pair it) but, when I tried with WM5.0, everything worked great, great sound on call's music, etc.. now I have a Sapphire and I'm not able to make calls on it (music works), but since I'm not driving and people used to look like "what a crazy guy speaking in English alone, no cables, it must be a mp3 or something.. hmmm" when I was on a call, it doesn't make a huge difference

i have yet to try this on wm6.5 but I highly doubt there would be a change..i'll give an update when I do charge up the bh200

i charged the bh200 up completely and tested it out.. it was a failure.. looks like 6.5 did not do anything to help...
Maybe windows mobile 7 will work.......... maybe.

You can use BH200 on call by this way only(I tested)
1. Turn on BT
2. Accepted call(However just Turn on your BT after accept call is OK)
3. Turn on BH200
4. Pair ur PDA w/ BH200
5. Done

IS this thead still active? I have a solution
Guys..
Use Reg edit and make the following modifications in your WM device by creating a new DWORD value 0 with the parameter UseESCO. Check out the path
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway\UseESCO = DWORD:0 (Dont use space between UseESCO)
Then restart the phone and delete any previous BT devices on your phone, start up the paining process and get it to work.
worked flawlessly on my Dell BH200
Thanks,
Raj.

seriously????
the fix is in one freaking registry tweak????
I'll have to wait 2 months before i can test this since i left the damn thing to rot in the US while i'm here in thailand..-_-

Heya, Finally got back ot he US and tested out the BH200 with the fix you mentioned. it works!!!!!
although, i'm wondering if you're having problems with the bh200 not wanting to connect to the phone automatically.

Need help for the same problem in android
I am having similar issues on my Nexus one. Dell BH200 works for music playback but stops functioning when a call is made or received. Even the connection between the phone & BH200 gets lost.
I would be really glad to get some help on this.

Very poor bluetooth connection

Hi guys,
i recently received my iTech R35 A2DP Bluetooth Headset for my Touch HD which is identical to HTC BH S100 since its only rebranded.
Pairing, controls and everything works fine, but when playing music the connection constantly gets lost for short terms regardless of the distance between the phone and the Headset.
The weird thing about it is, that the headset works perfectly with my friends HD. He even could go away like 10m without any kind of interruption.
I already tried some different settings with HD Tweak but no improvement.
Besides I noticed that overall bluetooth performance with my phone, as it once took about 30 minutes to send a 50MB file, isn't that good.
Thanks for any help!
Update:
I tested the Headset today with two other phones (SE W950i and some Nokia). It worked perfectly so I figure something has to be wrong with my phone. I'll perform a hard reset on the weekend and see if it changes anything. Otherwise I'll have to contact the customer service.
Has anybody here experience with german support. If I had to send the phone in, how does it usually take til u get your phone back?

Well, I just performed the hard reset and it solved the issue. Very strange since I hadn't installed that much programs.

Well, the problem returned and I now figured it out in detail.
There's no correlation with the programs installed.
Once the Bluetooth headset is in the Bluetooth-Device-List as it was connected before the constant lags are there.
If I delete it and re-pair the headset the lags are gone for this one time until the headset got disconnected. Even if I get out of range and return in reach connection is crappy from then on.
Didn't anybody recognize such a strange behaviour too?

I have a similar issue with my Sony Ericsson HBH-IS800 phones.
I thought I'd solved it by re-pairing with the handset, and initially that pairing seemed to last for a while, but now it seems I have to re-pair at least once a day to avoid the stuttering (it's really bad, isn't it?)
Frankly, I'm getting pretty disenchanted with my HD. Every time I discover a tweak which sorts an issue, another issue raises its head. I've lost count of the many hours I've spent trrying to get it to work as it ought to.
Wishing I'd got an iPhone. Okay it's not as good on paper, but at least everything works....

I have to agree the bluetooth is dodgy for me at the best of times in trying to connect to any computer.
Surprisingly, Ive had a good file transfer between my HD and MaxOSX, I can't say the same for Windows XP or Vista where on both accounts it has failed to connect via bluetooth to perform an active sync.

Thanks for your information. At least I'm not the only one with this issue.
Meanwhile I tested this behaviour with my buddies HD and it's the same pattern with his one.
I contacted german support today and will report after their answer.

i've been having the exact same problems with my hd. i would be able to pair it with my landrover, but then the connection would be lost. (there's another thread on this somewhere).
anyway, i tried installing BTRestore and BTRestart along with Mortscript and a custom script to help keep the bluetooth active. however, my problem was not that the bluetooth was turning off, but that the connection would not stay active.
so i installed a custom rom, Dutty's version 1.7, and also installed jetware bluetooth program (www.jetwaremobile.com); so far so good (*fingers crossed*). this is my 3rd day and the bluetooth works great. the phone connects with the car instantly, my phonebook works and i can make and receive calls without losing the connection.
so maybe updating the rom will help you too.

Sorry, it's been a while since HTC answered my questions but since their answer was quite disappointing I had no rush to post it.
Summarized they told me the HTC BH S100 was not compatible with the Touch HD even though I pointed out that it's in compatibility-list of the Diamond and both are running the same Chipset and OS and that it works fine after the first pairing.
As I'm tired of reconfiguring my phone I'll wait some time to flash another ROM. I hope WM 6.5 will be released soon and fix this problem, too.

Bluetooth causes phone to crash

I tried different roms curently using hyperdroid/ Miri with no success the phone always crashes when i pair/connect my bluetooth and try to make call. I followed directions of a poster to pair/connect and unpair and reboot. It worked once and then same problem again.
I want to use android on a regular basis but cant use it without bluetooth. Can anyone help ? Thank you !! I searched this forum and on the web for a while before posting this. If you have a solution please help.

Try different kernels. I've found that even though I continue to use the same build (ShubCRAFT 1.5), when I swap kernels I get differing results with the BT headset.
Media Audio tends to work whatever, I've had no problems with that, but phone audio is a different matter.
I've been using michyprima's r11 kernel lately (noAXI) and that seems to just about work but I do have to make a call and press the Bluetooth button immediately initially to get it to work.
Even then, it's flaky, as when the phone rings and I press the answer button on my BT headset, it brings up the Voice Dialer dialog over the top of the phone app and doesn't answer the call. I've resorted to only connecting BT to media and not using it for the phone.
I appreciate that doesn't solve your problems - I've simply decided to try each and every kernel until it's fixed! I'm sure the wonderful devs here will get round to fixing it soon but I think they've probably got other things higher up on the priority list right now!
I'm using a Sony Ericsson MW600 BT headset btw.

hello sorry for my English
my jabra bt hyperdroid on 1.2 works, but sometimes there is more sound for the march to re-I does not restart it by pressing the restart button, but I removed the battery!
For me works like that
success

I forgot to tell you that I deactivated the sound of media
