So... again.

Is there any updated version of this BT stack?

My problems with it (don't know the version I use):

- long connection time (the first seconds of the songs are missing)

- is it necessary to reconnect at the beginning of each song?

- quality is poor (with Motorola HT820 compared with Logitech Wireless for MP3 which have a dongle and connects it to the 2,5" jack)

- pause not works

- only works with WMP

- skips in playback (mostly at the beginning)

- it works worse and worse over time (soft reset not slove this)

Can anyone tell me how can I use this stack with Pocket Player v2.61?

after 19 pages of wading through the same questions, junk, jibberish and some just plain rubbish (who was the kid that posted '---' twice?) im going to stick with wired headphones...

when and if this 'project' becomes more refined and some definitive answers can be posted, i would be interested.

on a lighter note...anyone tried IRDA headphones? :lol: :lol: :lol:

BT upgrade of A2DP driver

I tried it on my O2 Mini and connected it with a iTech R35 headset. It works perfectly well both on listening stereo MP3 songs and handfree dialing and call taking in the initial trial. Well done on this upgrade and thanks for sharing. :D

Today, I was listening MP3 songs while going to my office. I note some issues. It took sometime in playback between songs and feel some missing of the song at the beginning - a couple of seconds. I also encountered no sound from earphones on a few occasions but the player was running. I note that some users encountered pause every certain seconds but I never encountered this issue so far. :?

AVRCP is also working correctly but some delayed action is noted.

Hope above will be improved in the future.

Anybody want to try the conduits pocket player?

I'm thinking that the BT might be disconnecting after every song because of the silence between tracks. This might be its way of conserving battery life. The Conduits pocket player 2.61 seems to support AD2P and AVRCP and has a feature called gapless playback that fades the end of one track with the start of the next, so there is no silence between tracks.

While this might not remedy the missing few seconds of audio when you start playback, it might prevent BT from disconnecting and reconnecting between tracks.

Someone, please try this out and report back!

i-Tech Bluetake Headphone Work

Hi all,

Co-incidence! I too just got the I-Tech Blueband as a birthday gift... and actually bought it myself, but mine I got from 3-mobile Melbourne Central, Australia for $99 (Aus).

I too can confirm that the audio quality is GREAT, way better sound, volume, convenience, comfort and looks than those stupid low volume, ugly, fall-out-of-my-ears every-five-paces O2 wired headphones/headset!

Yes there is a slight pause (~4seconds) before EVERY song and yes the device says "connecting" and the bluetooth headset icon then changes to green colour when connected. The phone streaming works perfectly too, and automute/resume when receiving and hanging up a call (via button on headphones) works perfectly.

*****IMPORTANT***** I have thus far only got it to work using Windows Media Player and it does NOT appear to work with Audible.Com Player, Resco Audio Recorder, pPod, Core or Music Creation programs Syntrax, Z4, Phoenix studio, or Pocket Synth Professional.

Also VERY IMPORTANTLY I noticed that only tracks recorded in in STEREO play in Windows Media player. If the 'channel' tag on your .mp3 files indicates the track is in mono it will not play. This is dissapointing as a large number of podcasts are distributed (and probably recorded) in mono.

Hope we can get a workaround for this as I wanted to use the headphones largely for listening to podcasts. I'd really prefer to avoid conversions as this was all about convenience! Oh well, at least some of my podcast feeds are recorded in stereo.

Cheers,

PS

I am also using it on my Magician with ROM version 1.12 (ToDo phone edition) and the BT stack posted at the start of this thread[/quote]

Connecting switches on my mini

I love this patch and the delayed start and sometimes parts of the music missing when the mini is busy is ok.

The thing that really annoys me is that between songs the bluetooth reconnects and switches the screen of my O2 mini on. This drains the battery very fast. So now between each song I have to press the 'activate' button in Windows Media Player to switch the screen off.

Is there a smarter solution?

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Karol:
I use a tiny applet called ScreenOff. Make a Google search. Just assign it to a hardware button and apply after starting streaming. The screen stays off all the time.

Bluetake I-phono mini

The audio connection between my HTC magician and my i-phono minis works very well, but I got a major problem by any call that comes in. It doesn't switch to headset mode and the headset turns completely off. Anyone else got this problem an how did you fix it???????????????
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Karol:
Well, I didnt fix it. I was just not aware of this problem. I have the i-phono minis since a couple of weeks and I never had an incoming call while streaming. But, you're right, I tested it and I have the same problem with switching to handsfree while streaming.

And I don't know how to fix it.

Hi Karol!

First, Thank you very much for your entry. Now I am a little bit more confident about getting my I-Tech Blueband headphones to work with my device! They will arrive in a few days! Then I hope I can make a positive entry in to this forum.

You reported that the pauses between the songs are almost unnoticeable! Can you please describe it more precisely? How long is such a pause?

Do you face any pauses during the songs while listening?

Do you think that the pauses between the songs are short because you installed ScreenOff?

Your quick reply will be very much appreciated!

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] twist:
So I installed this on teh Cingular 8125 and the VX6700 and so far the registry patch would not fix the audio from being muted on the VX6700 or the Cingular 8125, any know another way to bring the audio back, we're going to jack in the box (its 3 am on friday) and when we get back were gonna try to transfer files and what not, I see this does not add support for the default file explorer to hold click and select transfer file I only have Beam and Email and MMS as sending options.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] dsacgt:
Yes I have that problem too. Basically I have to take the headphones off my head and talk via the phone itself. Very confusing first few times it happened!!! Hope a fix becomes available. I use the iphone bluetakes.

In summary BT streaming is fantastic with these headphones but the major limitations in orderr of annoyance at present are:

1. Incoming calls aren't routed to headphones during streaming (outgoing calls are fine)

2. Only works with windows Media Player. I want it for movies, audiobooks (audible.com player), record/playback of audio notes etc

3. Extremely clumsy to turn on/off media player, headphones, streaming, audioprofile. eg when I hop off the train and go to work I need to revert to non-headphone audio. I must exit media player, turn off the headphones, turn off the bluetooth streaming (this last part is extremely clumsy). I wish this could be streamlined to one or two button presses rather than half a minute job!!!

4. Screen gets turned on after every song

5. 4 second delay between each song (ie you miss that part of the song)
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Karol:
Here is the reply from Bluetake support:

Dear Carlo,

About the switch issue, BT450Rx is design for bluetooth audio-sink device and control by the bluetooth audio-master device ( your mobile phone ), so the auto switch ability will depends on your mobile phone.

Some Mobile phone / PDA models may not release the bluetooth A2DP profile connection switch Bluetooth Headset profile connection automatically, this will cause the headphone to fail to switch the connection from HSP/ HFP to A2DP.

Please contact to us if you have further question.

Best regards,

i.tech blueband, turns itself off

Hi Guys,

Today I just received my I.Tech Blueband Headphones. I downloaded the Stack installed it, then I paired the headset and tried to stream the music. First, everything went OK and I was able to listen to the music on the headphones. Now, streaming from device is OK when the Headphones are turned on and are connected to the i-mate jam,

BUT the headphones turn themselves off in random periods.

So I have to switch them on again to listen to the music. It would not disturb me if this happens once a day, But if it's twice a minute, this is really annoying.

Confirm O2 mini working fine with Itech Clip S35

Hi Guys,

I can stream mp3 from my O2 mini without any pause,

Check my audio file birate at 128Kbps, 160kbps ,I even had some audio at 256kbps.

When call comes in,music pause/mute, music resume when call ended.

Tested distance up to 15 metres not problem.

Now a have a phone with wireless mp3 player.

I had also bought a dongle Itech 35 CON, it allows me to connect my cd players audio out to it device and beam audio to my Itech Clip 35.

The next thing I like to try is to route my Clip to my car radio aux and have mp3 from my O2 to the hifi system, hopefully it will work as a carkit as well.

I'm actually using just Windows Media player. I'm pretty much satisfied with it except for the pauses in between music tracks (because the bluetooth does for some reason connect and disconnect in betwen tracks) and the skips during the playing of the music itself after about 30 seconds or so.

Also, when calls come in they don't pause the music and transfer your headphones to their handsfree profile?
