I am currently using Elelinux 6.2.0 Speedmachine v2 ROM where there is an option to have the Bluetooth discoverable duration to be set to infinite. I need this option to have my BT car stereo (Pioneer DEH-P9800BT) connected and paired with my phone automatically whenever I am in the car.
I tried Elelinux 7.0.0 Hero v1.9 ROM but there is no such option hence my phone won’t connect automatically (I have to make it discoverable first) which is quite annoying.
Are there any other ROMs out there with an infinitely discovery option in the Bluetooth settings (preferably 2.3 ROMs)? Or is there an application available to achieve this?
Thanks for any help.

Hello,
i have a qtek 2020 1.75.00 WWE
My question is as follows:
Is it possible to have the headset mode set to "enabled" as soon as Bluetooth is switched on? At this moment, i have to go to the today screen to manually touch the headset icon to enable it. So even when bluetooth is active, i still can't use my headset immediately. When the phone rings i still have to go through the above mentiond manouvre, so by the time i have done that, the phone already stopped ringing.
So what i actually want is that the headset mode is either always enabled or that it gets enabled as soon as bt is active.
I hope you can help me.
Regards,
Ilana
Hi Ilana,
On my i-mate (XDA II) I run Pocket Bluetooth Tools (or BTHTools) which you'll find on XDA Developers if you search for it, and aside from adding additional profiles (such as the missing SPP - Serial Port Profile, which is needed to connect to Bluetooth GPS units), it also replaces the default Headset Profile app with an automatic one.
When the phone is activated by an incoming or outgoing call, the Bluetooth radio turns on automatically & I just tap the BT headset's answer button to transfer the call to the headset. When the call finishes the BT radio automatically turns off again after 60 seconds (thus saving battery power).
Give it a try - you can uninstall it to return to the default Microsoft BT stack if it doesn't ring your bell.

Thank you for your help. I will definitely give it a try!
Hi guys,
I'd like to use my laptops speakers and microphone as a 'bluetooth headset / handsfree device' so I can talk without having the phone in my hand.
Is this possible to do ?
I am using the Soliel 2.3 bluetooth stack with a Broadcom USB BT dongle which does appear to show 'bluetooth headset' as a service but my Wizard only shows 'serial port' as being an available service.
I'm currently using the NBD 8.0 rom..
Any suggestions appreciated!
does nobody know, or is this just not possible ?
I do think it's possible...
Hey,
i am using Jaguar's 3.1 and when i set up all my BT connections i saw the following in my list of connections to my PC: Serial,dial up net and headset. just for kicks cause i've been down about my rom project not turning out so good i messed with it and it works...somewhat. i say that because it was kinda choppy but that might have been 'cause i had both phones in the same room.
I use a2dp a lot with my car stereo.
Every day the phone connects to the car in handsfree mode and doesn't connect a2dp too.
so I've been running a2dp toggle each time I get in the car, and every time I complete a call (the phone disconnects at the end of calls, and reconnects only the phone part).
I've found an app that can search for devices at fixed intervals or when the device is woke up and if the selected device is discovered it will run a set app. This is an ok solution, but probably not too great for the battery.
The ideal solution would be to set the phone to always connect to a2dp on any devices it connects to, or an app that runs whenever a bluetooth connection is established (ie the handsfree connection) and would run a2dp toggle.
Does such an app exist?

Bluetooth audio streaming is not connecting automatically to my car kit (a Parrot MKi9200). The phone connection always sets up automatically as soon as I turn on my car's ignition, but the BT audio streaming never does. To make BT audio streaming work, I have to activate it manually in my phone's menu, each time I start my car. That's just too much on working days where I sometimes get in and out of the car frequently.
Both Parrot and HTC have told me that this functionality simply isn't there in the phone. Other phones can connect automatically, but not this model, so they say.
Is there a work-around? For instance, is there some sort of software utility that could help me automate the establishment of the BT audio streaming connection?
I find that on WM6 you have to reconnect manually in the comm manager to get AD2P to activate. But in some WM6.5 roms (most probably) like the EnergyROM I am using now the AD2P is very responsive and reconnects just by pressing play in HTC audio player even if stopped during the bluetooth connection to your car stereo/kit.
I have tried many AD2P auto software enablers but they eventually just remove the functionality alltogether and has me reflashing the rom. =/
I would suggest either to go with a 6.5 build or just make a habit of reconnection to the BT manually via comm manager if you want to stay with wm6
In the latest kernels from Hastarin and MdeeJay you can't voicedial handsfree anymore. You have to handle the phone itself.
In kernel Hastarin 8.1, which I use now, it's still possible to start dialing via my Jabra Bluetooth headset, and don't have to touch my HD2. That's of course very important when driving a car.
Dev's, is it possible to get it back? Thx! Or other users: does it still work on your HD2?
