very good Castro!

the chirping I can confirm, and my issue may have been a reg change under "ROOT/mp3/GSplayer. I deleted it and everything seems to be in order, sorry to stir the pot, but the timing of the ad2p hack and my hard reset caused this. I still get intermitten cut off's in the BT audio for 1/2 sec every 30-50 seconds though... may be a buffer or processor issue. Using a qtek s200 overclocked to 240mhz paired with sonorix 0100

i just did this with my Nokia Wireless Stereo Headset HS-12W

http://www.nokia.co.uk/nokia/0,,73459,00.html

and it works great

OMFG I love you... who ever hacked this thing!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] format:
Hi Makubex!

I'm planning on buying the Nokias. Can you tell us what works and what don't work with the HS12W? For music and for phone calls.

For instance: the names appear on the display or just the numbers? For music, can you control the player? Etc. etc. (I don't know what aditional features it has).

Overall experience of the headphones. What PPC are yhou pairing with?

And so on and so on :)

(the bluetake are also being considered...)

Thanks!

Here is a link to my review:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] bnycastro:
I am using the iTech Blueband with a non-overclocked dopod 838 [WIZA100] --

Music: I also get chopping especially when I put the device in my pants pocket [front or back ~ but more on the back], I get less chopping when I hold the device or have it just in one place like on a desk.

--

Calls: I get a lot of WHATs and I CAN'T HEAR YOUs especially in crowded places, better when in the office, car, or my room.

--

Voice Commands: I don't use this feature.

--

It also slows down the device when multitasking [i.e. typing up a message or playing a game] which is a pity really. Hopefully the next incarnation [HTC Hermes is reported to have Samsung 300mhz] of this form factor will have a beefier processor TI is useable but really under powered.

Again thanks to whoever made these cabs! :D
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] techspy:
Castro,

I had similar problems with seemingly "weak" bluetooth signals when talking on my headset with the phone in the holster on the other side. I also have a Jamin and it does not have this problem. Apparantly the Jamin has a better bluetooth that is stronger. I think it is an issue of the bluetooth power on the Wizard.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] bnycastro:
hi techspy may I ask which headset you are using with your pocketpc's? are you using the itech blueband as well? You are probably right though that the BT on the wizard is a bit week, I am not sure if the processor has anything to do with it as the prophet and wizard share the same TI OMAP.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] techspy:
I have the Bluband and the Clip. I did find when running at normal clock speed, and heavy multitasking that I get some sound breakup on my Jamin. However, I have both my Wizard and Jamin overclocked slightly (to 204) and don't have that problem anymore. But, regardless of clock speed or using a2dp etc, I notice that the Wizard bluetooth connection is quicker to have static due to distance or non line of sight (pohone on one side, headset on the other). FYI, I am using the test rom on my Wizard (KJam) and probably won't change from that test rom unless I start having problems. As of now, it is stable and doesn't seem to have any problems because of running the test rom.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] bnycastro:
I see that seems logical, for me I updated my ROM to Dopod 2.21.13.1 WWE and the A2DP patch just to test it. I did loose the ability to see my 838 under WMP10 devices [syncing music], which is not really a big deal as syncing using my notebook's card reader is way faster than Mediaplayer via USB. Also I think it is not related to the A2DP patch but I am not 100% sure.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Paladin27:
Does anybody know of a way to make a shortcut that will pair the stereo headset profile?

I love having A2DP finally, but It's anoying to have to start the connections manager, click settings and Bluetooth, and then click Devices tab and right-click Stereo Headset and selet Set as Wireless Stereo everytime I want to use A2DP with TCPMP.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] techspy:
I am looking for a similar solution. So far I havn't seen anything that will do this.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Jaidnoire:
Someone asked above and I'd like to know as well b/c it is not clear. I'm assuming that everyone here has upgrading their rom BUT:

Can this A2DP add on be used on an out of the box rom?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JwY:
well i went ahead and tried on my pre-aku2 rom and it works fine

so it should work for you as well

just make sure you follow the instructions carefully and correctly or it won't work

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] zoki:
shortcut is a poor idea. I don't have stereo headset :( to test it, but those who have it should check if there is a record in the notification queue. If there is such one, it's possible to change it to set the stereo headset after device soft reset

Ok so a semi-confirm from an origianl rom user....

Running the original TMO USA ROM, I ran the cab and now when I go into BTooth-->Devices and tap and hold on my mono headset, I see the greyed out option for "Set as Wireless Stereo"

No I'll just need a Btooth Stereo Headset to fully confirm...

So funny - I wanted to know that it would work b4 I'd shell out for the headset....but I'll need a headset to test it fully... :) :roll:

problems with my A2DP iTech s35 connect but no output..

OK, hope fully anyone can help me.

I installed the German Qtek updated ROM, then the A2DP cab. The phone does then recognize the iTech Headset, and I also do have 3 options, headset, wireless stereo, and "freisprechen" (handsfree).

Now, no matter if I check all three boxes or only wireless stereo, the sound is NOT transfered to the headset.

If I press the connection button on the headset, it tells me no speach dial shortcut (ok), THEN I SUDDENLY DO HEAR THE MUSIC FOR A SECOND OR TWO!!! but then it drops again...

Thus connection must be there but somehow supressed, or whatever...

Anyone got an idea what the reason could be? Any solution advice?

Works great on my 8125 w/Qtek AKU2 ROM overclocked at 240MHZ. I'm using HP iPAQ bluetooth stereo headphones and the sound is perfect. No hiss or dropouts. No AVRCP though either :( so I might return them to CompUSA and go for the moto HT820 instead. Why the heck did M$ leave this out of the production AKU2 build?????

Does anybody have a headset w/built in mic that also can do the wireless headset profile working? It would be cool to switch the phone through the headset too...

FYI: I'm using this with TCPMP w/no problems. At first I thought I would be limited to media player only due to the reghacks I was adding but that is not the case.

damn this rocks!

Edit: AVRCP on the iPAQ headset works fine with Media player though. Looks like version 0.71j of TCPMP doesn't support it yet.

headet

the motorola HT820 does phone and music...

Yesterday we thought the Moto Bluetooth stereo headset was interesting but we hadn't seen it and couldn't quite explain it. Today we have all the answers. (Ok, maybe not all the answers.) Here's how it really works. The HT820 supports both headset and hands-free to connect to a phone via Bluetooth. It also supports two new Bluetooth profiles for audio, one for receiving stereo broadcast and the other for controlling audio devices. If you have an audio device that supports the profiles, or you have an adapter—either one of Motorola's that we mentioned or even the naviPlay—the headset will be able to pause your music when you take an incoming call, and you can even skip tracks using buttons right on the headset. If, however you don't have a Bluetooth audio device or adapter, you can plug a player into the 'phones using a cable, in which case, the HT820 will mute the audio when you get a phone call, but won't be able to pause it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Sleuth255:
So the HT820 headphones have a built in mic too then? That's perfect.

Re: Any luck with BlueTake i-Phono??

i used widcomm stack patch 4 ipaq and it worked perfect

upgraded to wizard - even on the resr rom w/a2dp

these bt420 were not recognized as stereo

might be because they are quite old and dont support avcr so the new a2dp stack disregard the as not 100% compliant

the bt420 = high quality soung everywhere else and cost accordingly

but i guess u need the 450...

Original US TMO MDA ROM

Do I need to unlock the device if I do not upgrade to AKU2, but just install the CAB on the original US TMO MDA ROM (1.8.10.2 WWE)?

Also, any recommendations on the BT headset that might work best (both A2DP and handsfree). Moto HT820 seems like a good candidate...

Thank you
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Jason Lee:
I discovered something interesting. If you have your headphone paired and are playing music in media player you can turn of your ppc with the power button and the music keeps playing and you can still controll it with the headphones! This is not the same as mapping a button in media player to turn the screen off. It is like actually turning the ppc off. the buttons I have mapped to media player on the ppc do not work because the device is "off". very coo!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Sleuth255:
@hrvoje:

HP's iPAQ bluetooth headset works great but won't do headset profile (no builtin mic). Because of this, they cost a lot less then the moto headset. Something you might consider if you don't care about phone handsfree.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] pzucchel:
i have two report the two following things on the motorola HT820 which i own. What follows relates indeed to rom 2.17 and the A2DP hack which i downloaded from this list:

1. does all you'd expect (including voice command) through its buttons and its mic

2. Still, listening to stereo music, i get interruptions on the stereo stream. tried all possible solutions - no way. and i had the same with the test rom 2.08.

The a2dp.reg (registry) file can NOT be imported using Resco Registry Editor. How did anyone import it? I have to type it manually ONE-BY-ONE and it took a friggin 10 minutes. Anyone who have the file that can be imported using Resco Registry Editor?

BTW, I am able to see the "Set as wireless Sterero" option, but just to be clear:

Having the "Stereo" option REQUIRES a BT Headset with Stereo capability, otherwise the option is just shown but it's GREYED OUT. Is this correct?

Re: Speaker phone hissssssss background noise

I've not had that xp although it seems a common complaint. I've seen a few posters note this same issue on Summiter's A2DP rom thread. I am using the base Qtek AKU2 Rom with no customizations other than EdgeIcon though. I also entered the A2DP settings by hand.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Sleuth255:
I'm running a Cingular 8125 with the Qtek 2.17 production AKU2 rom. No customizations other than EdgeIcon. I'm using TCPMP v0.72RC1 exclusively with equalizer on and preamp set to about 60% (top slider). I'm running the rest of the EQ flat with all sliders set to 50%. Sound is loud enough to rock out to Alice in Chains while mowing the lawn.. (although my ears were ringing the rest of the afternoon) :D
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JwY:
you're going to have to make a comparison with the same headphones though

@JwY:

So you direct connected your bluetooth headphones and compared then? My FA303s have no means to direct connect, but I believe the HT820 can. I'll be sure to try that.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JwY:
well i'm using the r35 so the headphones remain the same where in one case it uses a2dp and the other is using a wire and adapter

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Sleuth255:
Will do. On the hiss issue, the HP FA303s are dead silent. I'll check this with the moto headset when it arrives on the 4th.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] AndreasD:
It works for the Wizard ...but for some reason the quality is not so nice. Seems like a low bandwith ... with a hiss in the background. Does anyone else experience such thing.

I did use all the a2dp_cert.cab files and all but i did not modify the registry manually. I think this was done automatically.

Does anyone know how to fix this (Improove Sound quality) ? Thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Sleuth255:
What headset are you using? Also, try this:

When you connect your headset, your HTC Wizard should display an icon that looks like a headset with a musical note inside it immediately to the left of the GPRS icon on the top title bar and on your headset you should hear the same sound that activesync makes when your device is recognized. If this isn't the case, then A2DP isn't being used or hasn't been set up correctly. On my FA303, when I put them on, I press and hold the power button until I hear a rising beep. At this point, the LED on the headset goes into a quick blue flash to show its on but not connected. I then tap it again and I see the A2DP headset icon discribed above and hear the activesync connected sound in the headset. At this point the blue LED on my headset changes to a steady blue flash.

I used the .cab, and for some music i have also this little hiss in background.

I tried to use the equalizer of Tcmp but this little hiss is always there.

I'm sure it came from the phone because i don't have that noise when i use an other bluetooth dongle with a2dp profile.

I get that sound as well (Active Sync) so it seems fine.. but i get the impression the Bandwith is around 96kbps yet it seems the MS Stack is the cause of it ... i once had a Widcom Stack in my old XDA II and it went around the MS Stack and it streamed the music with a bandwith of 192kbps .. so my guess is the BT stack problem... has anyone tryed another BT Stack that works on an WM5 OS on a Wizard ?

yes, it is because your headset does not support the A2DP profile which is what you just installed.

There is a differnce between a bluetooth headset and bluetooth headphones.

So what tweaking did you do to make it work? I can't get my HS850 to work as BT headphones. I'm pretty sure this is because they weren't designed to so the under the BT options "set as wireless stereo" is greyed out.

But if I have media player playing music and I press the button on my HS850 it activated the voice speed dialing and I could hear the mp3 audio coming through my HS850 so I know there is a way I can get it to output the audio through my headset just not sure what I need to tweak.

works with old TMO US MDA ROM

I have successfully installed Zoki's CAB (hvala, Zoki) on my TMO MDA. I still have the original TMO USA ROM (1.8.10.2 WWE). I immediatelly managed to pair it successfully with the Moto HT820 and all the services worked like a breeze (stereo sound, handfree, even voice dial).

However, the connection does seem to be failry unstable. Amost every time I switch the device back on, I have to go back to the BT settings and refresh the services. The Voice Dial seems to be the most difficult one to revive - I have lost that part and have not been able to get it back (even though all three services - Handfree, Stereo Sound and Headset - are checked). Go figure.

I have not been able to get it to work together with WiFi at all - it would work for 1 - 2 secs and then revert back to the built-in speakers. But from what I have been able to gather, this seems as expected.

Still, I am very happy with the whole thing. Thanks to everybody who worked on this.

Hope this helps.
