I have a problem concerning the use of my Touch HD with my hands-free car kit (Nissan Qashqai). Pairing works fine as well as receiving and making calls. The annoying issue is the following:
Upon connection the display in my car shows the field strength as well as the battery status. The field strength indicator is OK, but the battery status indicator is always wrong. It always shows the battery as currently empty. It can be seen here, where as user having the same problem has posted a photo.
I already used HD Tweak and altered the bluetooth settings but without success. Also other WM6.1 devices don't show this issue. I suspect, someting might be wrong with the HFP 1.5 bluetooth profile in the Touch HD.
After reading this document I think that the AT+CMER command is not properly transmitted or the answer is not properly processed
That's as far as I came...
Can someone confirm this or even better: provide a solution for this?
Thanks heaps in advance,
Udo.
Hi
Yes, i can confirm this.
I think this is a Problem with communication between WM6.1 and the radio.
I am not sure, that the answer is not properly processed. Because the HTC TyTN II with WM6.1 works fine.
I believe that the AT+CMER command is transmitted to the wrong value.
I hope, anyone can help us

Same problem for me, always empty battery with the Touch HD.
Works fine with my Windows Mobile 6.1 Diamond.
I own a HTC Touch Cruise II T4242 connected to Handfree of a Toyota Rav4 and i've the same problem. Battery status at thru bluetooth indicates always empty. I wonder if anybody come up with a solutions...
Bump...
Any solution yet?
Hi, i recently got a HTC HD Touch on Orange which i bought on ebay. The phone already came loaded with WM 6.5 on and so far i love it except for one problem. I have a Datsun 350z with intergrated bluetooth. When i tried to search on my phone it couldnt see anything, so this morning i upgraded my phones ROM to the latest Dutty's_HD_WM6.5_5.2.23016.5.0.3_Leo_R5. Since then i can search and find the bluetooth device of the car, input the pin code for it and it is added in my devices tab, however nothing appears in the "Select services to use from this device" section.
I am wondering if nyone had any idea if i am doing something wrong or whether its jsut that my car doesnt support the phone? I was also thinking about reverting back to WM6.1, would that work? Also, how do i go about getting a vanilla copy of WM 6.1?
Any help would be much appreciated,
Regards

Just a quick update. I can get the phone to connect to the bluetooth module in the car but its not easy. Basically when i put the keys in ignition that bluetooth gets power, i then have to quickly search for bluetooth devices on my phone and then it will connect. Would be nice if the phone just connected everytime to the car like my Blackberry did. Is this hardware or software problem please?
Not that anyone actually cares about my problem but i thought i post the answer up for anyone that might be struggling in future.
What was stopping my Bluetooth working with my car was having WiFi on. When i disable WiFi the car + phone works perfectly together. In my particular situation i use my phone to connect to an ad-hoc network, and because the phone is not connected to the ad-hoc when in my car the searching constantly is causing the problem. Whether this would be the same with infrustucture mode im not sure.
Hi
I have a BMW X5 and a HTC HD2 with the newest ROM. When I enter the car, HD2 is recognised automatically by the car and I can place phonecalls dialing from my HD2. The only thing that does not work is that BMW tries to upload my phonebook from the phone but it does not get it. BMW says "please wait" - forever.
Before I flashed the ROM, this worked. Anyone has any ideas? I would even pay for someone in Zurich who comes and fixes this. One thing I could do of course is to downgrade my ROM again. But before I do this, I want to explore any other options.
Thanks a lot!
PS: jetwaremobile.com definately does NOT work on HD2
I have exactly the same issue. The HTC HD2 works ok for calls etc but the phone book upload is "please wait" forever. Very annoying. I have the standard up to date ROM and BMW X5 2009 model. Any help would be great.
Thanks

I have a 2008 BMW, and I did experience this the first time..I sat there waiting for a few mins adn then got bored...but after I had turned the car off, been away and come back..it transferred straightaway.
Funnily enough, when I had my iphone (yes..sorry) I had the little image of the phone next to the BT signal on the display. I don't get this straight away with the HD2, but it always eventually appears..and then stays there until I hard reset my phone and do a ROM upgrade and then start the pairing again..where I just get the BT signal...then randomly..a few weeks later, the phone image appears again....very odd
Works fine here with a BMW 5x from 2008.. Using miris 6.5.x ROM

Hi, I also have a 2008 BMW (E93) and I do see the phone logo. It also syncs about 250 of my >3000 contacts. With my TyTN2 I used "Jetware Mobile" to sync just one dedicated category. But that doesn't work anymore with MinMo 6.5

Which ROM do you use 1.66? or earlier? With my earlier ROM I had no problems, but since I upgraded to 1.66 (German), the phonebook does not transfer...
Bluetooth auto control problem
I can’t control my bluetooth (on/off) when using Inesoft phone profiles/controls; I have also tried other programs but no success(in another program the window of bluetooth was disabled); through all programs, I could control phone, WIFI, and gprs but not the Bluetooth. The only way to turn the Bluetooth on/ off is the Comm Manager (Manually); could anyone help please. Thanks

thank you, I am glad it worked for you...you must have a newer generation ULF than me then.
Is your phone HD2? mine is Toshiba TG01..I have managed to make it work 50/50 of the times, but I do not know WHAT CHANGES are between it working and not working...it is very frustating to know (and experience it working) that it can/should work, but not being able to
I have a new HTC Mini HD and have the same problems with my 2009 BMW 3. BT Headset function works just fine, but iDrive keeps trying to sync the telephone book, unsuccesfull. Instead, my phone's battery gets drained. Anyone any sollutions?
Unfortunately I don't have an answer for your question, but it sounds like it might have something to do with the bluetooth stack used for that ROM/Radio not being recognized by the car. Perhaps the layer that deals with data transfer is removed. Sorry I can't be of more help here.
What I can do to help is to offer a warning. I am a former BMW Client Advisor, and have been told many, many times by service technicians that using phones which are not specifically approved by BMW can affect your car's ECU (brain) and if it needs to be repaired or replaced, it will not be covered under warranty. That could be just nonsense to force you into buying only phones which BMW has tested (or vendors have paid for a marketing fee), or it might be spot on, in which case you run a pretty big risk.
Hope this helps.
OK, problem solved. BMW updated my carsoftware to its newest version last week and now my HD2 works perfectly with my car (again). I can make calls AND my phonebook is synced as well.
Hint1: Try if your phonebook sync problem exists with the SIM contacts as well as with the phone contacts

Hi All,
I have a BMW X5 2005 model. I can pair the phone OK but it constantly disconnects and reconnects once the transfer of the phonebook occurs. The phonebook transfers always start from scratch when this happens and nothing gets loaded to the car's phonebook.
If a call comes in, or if I make a call while it is connected (like within 5 seconds) the phone stays connected for the duration of the call.
I have tried all the Regisrty tweaks and none change the behaviour.
I also read it is because the HD2 uses Widcomm BT stack and not the MS BT Stack.
Zippolly and a_petrov303 and all those that have it working, can you please tell me which Rom you are using? I am using the latest Energy's 6.5.x rom. i noticed someone mentioned Miri's 6.5.x Rom works.
Thanks,
Rob
I have a 07 E60. The HD2 pairs fine, synchs contacts fine, but the sound quality is so bad it's not useable. Of course bmw says it's not a compatible phone, but I think there is a problem with the car as my Diamond won't find it, even though it is supposed to be supported
its mainly due to the car bluetooth, BMW etc don't make the car kit mostly siemens do and they are slow on the uptake of doing updates.
anybody found a snap-in for the hd2 yet?
I have a 7-series F01 and it is really annoying to have to deal with that usb cable...

I had the BT problem too, deleting the profile and repairing the phone did the trick for me...
Hi all, I have a wildfire and i have noticed a little problem.I have always had a WM ( upgrade my devices every year) and Android Phone.
I have noticed with android the bluetooth connection issue does not have the option to leave the device "discoverable" all the times ( unlike WM devices).
This was not much of a problem with the 1.5 ( htc hero), when it was paired with my bluetooth stereo everytime the phone rang it would connect to the headunit and work very well. I was actually impressed as it would save on my much needed battery. And work very well interms on hands free in the car.
The phone i have now is a htc wildfire,the phone will ring and when i pick up it remains on the internal speaker and does not "search" for the default hands free.
My device is not rooted, currently running the oem unlocked unbraded rom.
I have a few questions but done know where to place them?
Is there a way round?Does anyone know of a fix?
Who actually makes the rom?
Can they not program the device to have the always on feature?
Is it possible to extract the bluetooth program/app from the 1.5 and port it to the 2.1?
Thank you in advance.

So, I have been looking on the forum for 3 days know commenting on all forums with questions regarding BT. Now I do know that BT on WP7 does not allow to transfer files. I also know that Headsets are able to connect, however.... my phones does not allow it for some reason.
Like the title says I really need Handsfree for my daily life.
My phone does not find my headset, it just keeps searching. I kept it next to each other for 1 hour.... after a hour still searching...
I know Bluetooth is on the Update list when it comes to the next step in cracking WP7, but allot of you guys use BT with a headset, any other have this problem? How do you fix this problem?
I heard it might have something to do with the Radio, that correct?
Please guys help me out!
I'm using a Parrot carkit on BT and that works just fine. The Parrot (that's nothing more than a headset) shows up in my BT devices and I can make the connection. I'm using the 'default' DFT WP7. Exept from a terrible battery usage, WP7 works magic !
I use sony ericsson bluetooth HBH IV835. Never been any problem at all.

I have the same problem. One guy said that his bluetooth started working when he flashed the Moon Light Rom, I flashed it and it still did not work for me. I use magldr 1.3 and the 1.12.50 radio. I am now back on the original DFT Rom.
I've run WP7 for only a day and managed to connect it to my Nokia CK7. I took much longer than normal to pair but it worked in the end. Whilst this doesn't really help at least you know it is possible to achieve.
The primary reason taken WP7 off my phone is that I NEED my database apps (currently Handbase) plus the traffic data from google maps.
For the brief period I was using WP7 I was really impressed but for some reason I never managed to dual boot it with Android as I kept loosing the Android partition. I certain this was my fault but having spent more than two hours reformatting the SD card as per the tutorials on here I gave up and flashed back to 6.5/Android.
