Can anyone tell me if the XDA II can be upgraded regarding the version of Bluetooth ie. spec states ver 1.1 can this be upgraded to ver 1.2 which allows for the use of stereo bluetooth headsets etc.
Thanks
Mike Simmonds
i think bluetooth revision and profiles supported are 2 different things
you may want to look into bluetooth stacks insted of revisions because i think thats hardware related
I guess from this then, my original question should now be,"Can I use/upgrade my XDA II with bluetooth stereo headset (rated bluetooth v1.2)"
Thanks for the reply

AFAIK, Bluetooth v1.2 is backward compatible with v1.1. Besides the same basic technical stuff, the 1.2 adds Advance Frequency Hopping so it can connect better in a crowded wireless radio area and faster connection between Bluetooth devices... And the v1.2 compatible Bluetooth devices can still connect until 100 metres.
So basically yes, you can use a device/headset rated Bluetooth v1.2 with your XDA.
I once tested a v1.2 Bluetooth headset from Billionton to connect with an XDA II Mini, I can still communicate with the Mini and me are roughly 80 metres apart, although the sound quality was horrendous, it's mostly because of the headset itself, not the connection fault.
Just to be sure, try pairing it first if you want to buy a v1.2 Bluetooth headset with your XDA.
Can I assume also, that I would be able to stream stereo audio via the XDA II to the stereo bluetooth headset, & would a headset mic also function?
Thanks for your reply

As far as I understand, both Himalaya and Blue Angel are equipped with Bluetooth version 1.1.
I've done some research on this, since I wanted to connect stereo headsets to my MDA III just like you apparently. The 1.2 standard is downwards compatible and apparently it will work to connect a 1.2 "stereo" headset to your device. BUT you will not be able to enjoy stereo.
Headset and device can connect, but since your device uses 1.1, it won't be able to broadcast stereo.
(I haven't tried all this, but it's what I found out during extensive research).
Apparently, Bluetooth 1.2 requires a new chip. So unfortunately it isn't that easy to upgrade from 1.1 to 1.2.
the ms bluetooth stack and also the vidcomm i believe dont support A2DP
which is required to get stereo audio to a headset
you can use this though

i seem to get handsfree phone only when i connect the omnia 7 to my FMT300 BT handsfree car kit. I cannot stream music !
the FMT300 works fine with my BB Torch and HTC Desire
is this to normal?
Handsfree Device is the only Bluetooth profile supported by WP7 currently.
thx for your reply, and what a big disappointment.
so why do they post it in the specs if it doesnt work ?

Disappointing! I remember WinMo 6.x had pretty much every Bluetooth profile under the sun! I'm going to try it with my BT headphones... see if anything happens.

Done! I turned on Bluetooth and my headpones appeared instantly (as "headset"). Connected fine. I can play music through my Bluetooth headphones - tried using a marketplace sample as I don't store music on my phone.
@CreepinJesus,
thx for giving this a try, this made me give it a go at my older Parrot PMK5800 kit and guess what, the Omnia 7 was happy to pair and play music with this kit.
"can't have it all" i guess, but at least it proves a2dp over bt could work
cheers
Perhaps it only allows music playack over headphone devices and not hands-free kits? I don't have a hands-free thing to test it with.
I've been able to play music through A2DP to my Sony Ericcson MW600 headset no problem. A2DP is definitely supported by Windows Phone 7.
There is however, an issue with video. Video sound still comes out of the phone speaker, and is not sent over Bluetooth. It's an issue with WP7, not the phone and hopefully will be fixed in an update.
I can stream music over my Motorola T505 car speakerphone just fine
Enclosed the reply from the supplier (Technaxx):
"The music stereo streaming depends on the mobile phone functions.
Check if your mobile phone can be connected with the transmitter over the A2DP protocol.
(Some phones need to be connected with 2 separate BT profiles: BT Headset and A2DP)"
no clue what this all means.
As far as I can see the Omnia does not allow for any settings, right?
it just connects and one hopes it works
this apposed to my BB Torch where i can set different kinds of connections, the Omnia has no settings at all.
A2DP is the profile it needs to use for music. I think your headset is connecting only with the headset profile, so it cann't play music.
I'm not sure if you can set profiles... If you can, somehow, you need to set your headset to use A2DP, then you will be able to play music through it.
Thx for your reply.
The thing is the "headset" is an FM carkit and A2DP works fine when i connect any of my other phones (Palm Pre, Palm Plus, BB Torch and HTC Desire). In all these cases i get both handsfree phone and music streaming. No special settings needed. These phones also all allow me to change the type of connection from within the phone afterwards.
None of that when i connect the Omnia 7. Al i get is handsfree phone calls (a handsfree connected confirmation window pops up). No other connections ...
So i really think it is an Omnia 7 "absence of settings" compatibility problem. There are no settings available in the phone.
I am using my BB Torch at the moment also because market is not available in the Netherlands ...... not much fun with this phone
dont know what happened but i gave it another try today and now it seems to be working.
unbelievable ...
the thing is you still do not get to see the profiles that have been set but it works ..
thanks everybody for the support ...
My A500 can't connect to my Jawbone speakers even if I try to connect manually. However, it is paired but doesn't connect.
I don't think a2dp is supported in 3.0.
A2DP
Is supported.
I use my Motorola A2DP headphones all the time. AVRCP is also supported.
The Title says allready enough, I think.
I need help, because after USB OTG is Bluetooth A2DP the second thing, which isn't work for now.
My Spec.:
- AOKP by Roman (Android 4.2.1)
- Sony Ericsson Hi-Fi Wireless Headset Z354 (Profiles: A2DP/AVRCP)
Nice Greetz Ricardo
the specifications do say that it supports A2DP even in the manual... didnt work for u eh?
A2DP works great for me. I use the phone with my car and it sounds quite good.
bluetooth in android 4.2.1 is seriously borked

Works well with my A2DP headset.
yeah, works fine with my altec lansings and my motorola s9-HD
But it has problems auto connecting to my car Bluetooth hands free kit (parrot)
I have to manually connect everytime, then its ok, but its a bit of a time waster every time.
My new car navigation ( KIA Rio) want me to use A2DP to play music from mobile device and to the Navigation unit.
I don't know how to enable A2DP and after connect to the car Navigation . Please help me.
A2DP is enabled by default on your phone.
You need to have bluetooth on the phone turned on prior to connecting with your car.
Then sync with your car and follow the onscreen instructions and read your owners manual.
The S7 ad2p feature doesn't seem to be working with my Parrot Mki9200 carkit. Nor will it autoconnect for some reason.
It pairs and connects manually with handsfree working for calls, but music won't stream over ad2p to the kit. (Music streaming is enabled, even tried adding it as a trusted device).
Anyone any ideas?
I'm having the same issue with mki9200 and a galaxy s7 edge.
Call audio works fine. Music streaming nothing at all.
