[Q] how can you install a new version of bluetooth? - G2 and Desire Z General

i was wondering if there's a way to flash or copy/paste a new bluetooth. i would like to have bluetooth 4( i thought that was the latest version) because i use bluetooth very often.
thanks in advance

i thinking that Bluetooth are hardware related and not software replaceable bro

That would be hardware, not possible to do yourself.

Simple build.prop mistake, BT is HW based, not software

^ This, Would be like saying you upgraded your USB from 1.1 to 2.0 , or 2.0 to 3.0 just from a driver upgrade. Not possible.

Those of you running 2.2, wiimote?

For anyone running a 2.2 rom and new modem, can you link to a wiimote? I'm curious if the BT stack has been changed.

Nope, none of the wiimote apps work still. Would be cool though.

Tv out and the bluetooth stack fix are the two most vital changes I am waiting for. I hear that CM 6 will fix the bluetooth.

Sixaxxis Controller Capatability

It's a new app that lets you bluetooth your PS3 controller to your Android phone, but only works on devices / software implementations that support the protocol.
Any ROMs that work with this? I'm running ACS Frozen 1.1, no luck.

Short story: This lets you use the PS3 controller as a controller for your emulator of choice (NES, SNES, N64, PS One, etc), for your non-gimpy Starfox 64 delight.
Wow, this would be an awesome toy.
Just tried it on EPICUREAN SCrAMbLED EGgs22 v4 and no go :'( "Error: Missing required protocol".
I wonder exactly what protocol is needed, and how hard it would be to port to different hardware platforms (like ours).
From their site <10char>:
Additionally, it is incompatible with most HTC devices and some newer Samsung devices. This is due to the required bluetooth protocol not being implemented on these devices. We are actively looking into a work around, but currently the only solution is to install a custom firmware, such as Cyanogenmod, that supports the required protocols.

It shouldn't be ROM-dependent per 'se, but I was curious if it was fixed in EG22. Apparently not.

Touchwiz (& Sense) uses a different bluetooth stack that won't work, you need to be on an AOSP ROM (CM7)

Thank god this is finally an option. Not being able to use my PS3 controller on SNES ROMs was really the only thing I missed from my Touch Pro 2...
I wonder if this works on the Nexus S???
/I also hope the dev plans to sell the app on the Amazon App store!!

From what I have read in their forums, it works fine. I'd link ya but I'm on mobile at the moment. Thread can be found under General / PS3 controller works on Nexus S 4G 2.3.5 rooted stock rom.

So does anyone know how hard it would be to implement the standard android stack into custom roms. Is it simply a matter of switching the files or are there a lot of communication issues to deal with when changing bluetooth stacks. As I recall there was a custom stack built for my old touch pro that hadn't been too difficult for someone of decent knowledge to make, so hopefully its a similar situation.

It would take significant hacking.
Bluetooth is built into standard android (AOSP) via BlueZ. Samsung with their TouchWiz uses a custom stack instead. TouchWiz pretty much infests every android file.
CM7, whenever it becomes stable, should fix it, being AOSP.

Just one more reason I can't wait for CM7 to be fully functional (heck, I would be happy with everything but 4G & WiFi)

Yeah.
Both the Sixaxxis and the Wiimote applications work.
I was playing Muffin Knight with the Wiimote this weekend.

Stock FM from 2.2 doesn't show the Icon but bluetooth is enabled if you check the radio status from terminal emulator and such. Spirit FM I think doesn't do that. You'll need to find Spirit FM Free, the author placed it in some filesharing site and removed it from market.

YOU CAN NOT enable FM without bluetooth, spirit FM uses the same instructions to enable Radio as Stock or CM roms. The reason you can not see the Bluetooth icon on stock Roms is that its hidden, but you can easily check that its on, by say getting any bluetooth manager app, and going into it, realising bluetooth is already on
what is the latest version of spirit fm radio????
Check this
I think the below link is the one. Please check

Car audio and phone guy question

I just had a new deck installed, here's the one I had installed, http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/CD-Receivers/DEH-P8400BH
And when I plug my phone in to the USB, it says device unrecognized. Is that normal for Nexus devices? Is there any fix for it? And no bluetooth information is displayed, i see its something to do with something that LG or Samsung puts in their branded phones, so its absent from a Nexus, is there any rom with it in it?
Hey there. Same deck and same phone here. For the USB to phone, don't bother. Never got it to work myself. As far as information displaying while playing, many of the custom ROMs support this (CM10.1, AOKP, etc.), so you might want to give one of them a shot. I'm not sure this is something that can be added, or if it's something that that requires a whole ROM to implement.

The nexus 4 doesn't use UMS for mounting. It uses MTP. Unfortunately it won't be compatible with your deck or any other device for that matter.
There aren't any ROMs that will change that either.

I'm guessing this wont be in any AOSP based ROMs though? None of the ones I've used support this. Maybe I'll try CM when they finally get a stable version out, can't stand nightlies.

Haha, gotta love a cheap solution. Esp as he's just bought a new receiver.
Don't bother with cm right now. Apparently because of the new Bluetooth stack Google used in 4.21 they had to pull out AVRCP v1.3 (the Bluetooth control protocol that allows for song meta data to be sent to the headset) out of cm10.1 and revert back to v1.0 that only allows control...No metadata.
Stock Android only has AVRCP v1.0 so that's why it doesn't work on any stock Nexus device.
...but my wife's GS3 has AVRCP v1.3...boo.

Android 4.3 Bluetooth Radio Track Info Now Working

I just wanted to let you guys know that AOSP finally has bluetooth track info working with Bluetooth 4.0. The leaked 4.3 was not working with the track info with the car radio.
Most likely when the ROM was pulled from the phone off craigs list a few keys areas were missed. I tested this with the Nexus 4, 7 & 10 and all is good.
I know this is the HTC one thread (my personal phone) but I wanted to share that we are good to go with Track Info after all these years.
*Yes I know HTC Sense and Samsung fixed this with their own bluetooth stack, this is and upgrade for AOSP users.
WooHoo!
I installed the leaked 4.3 ROM on my Nexus 4 last week and Bluetooth LE (track info) worked fine.

Avrcp 1.3 is what you're talking about. Bluetooth LE (low energy) is a lower power Bluetooth specification.

Avrcp 1.3 is new? Because i really missed track info whilst driving, it makes looking for songs really hard.

Not new. Its been in OEM firmware for a while and custom aosp based ROMs like cm prior to 4.2. It's new as far as being an official part of AOSP.
