TEST RESULTS ON UNIVERSAL WITH WM6 (Midget aka Helmi unreleased)

Sound IS great. But other than that, this program does not work very well on my device. Of course this is designed for Hermes but I gave it a shot.

Issues:

1:

Screen flickers

(only when this BT is turned on).

Flickers really bad and unable to use device.

Fix: set the device to standby (power button) and wake it up again. Flickering gone

2:

Once BT is deactivated for a few minutes I can't start it again.

Fix: No fix found yet. Only a Soft-reset and directly activate BT works.

3:

I can't use my GSM/UMTS connection anymore. Trying endlessly. Even after soft-reset's I can't connect. WiFi works fine though.

Fix: No fix found yet.

4:

Unable to uninstall this program. Tried several times. I get to the "Soft Reset Device Yes/Cancel". I soft reset, program still there and working.

5:

Hard-Reset, complete setup with WAP, MMS, MAIL etc.

Installed Widcomm BT Stack again.

Soft-reset:

Screen flickering (fix)

No 3G/UMTS connection avalible anymore. Even when BT stack is completly shut down.

KEEPING this post updated.

Any updates on this.... after reading through 20 pages, I sure hope this is coming close to development.

The MS Stack seems to have issues with my Acura TL BT System since it randomly drops BT Signal mid-call and transfers to the handset....very frustrating as it is starting to be more frequent.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] yegor:
Will the new stack work with P3600? Or is it Hermes only?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] new2city:
I tried mine on the Wizard and it works.. The difference was the Port number and the baud rate... Heck, even the Axim patch works on the wizard using the correct Port number and baud rate... I guess you just have to try the correct Port number on your device..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] PeLa:
Sorry for the late respons. I suppose this is off-topic here, but the BT-stack on my HX4700 (best screen ever!) does not start after several connections. After a softreset (at least daily) it works fine!

The TyTN is a very stable device. The hx4700 is a device with great features: screen & widcomm stack... To be honest I miss the BT stack most. Just one off these things people don't realise when they buy a ppc.

I hope Superdave can create a stable and usefull widcomm stack for the TyTN.

Is it possible to change the codec used in A2DP? I am using itech handfree with bluesoliel on desktop. It sounds crappy when I use the SBC codec. If I change to MP3 codec, the sound quality improved a lot.

I wonder if there is such option in Widcomm stack for hermes

Thanks a lot.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] syberianbull@yahoo.com:
so is there a completed version of this or was development terminated?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Kilihari:
Fair to say that development has at least been paused for the time being.

I think we need to find another coder, we all love Superdave for his efforts but by the time that v0.4 of the Widcomm bluetooth stack is finished Windows Mobile v7.0 will have been posted. I really appreciate that superdave has given lots of his time to try to get this done, but nothing has been posted in a long time, so sad.

I was also wondering, the crossbow bluetooth stack, is it any better than our current ms stack?

memory issues

For the people getting the out of memory problem, there are 2 things I noticed that can be easily fixed!

First, when installing SPB pocket plus, it sets the StackMode value under HKLM/SOFTWARE/widcomm/BTConfig/General to 0. Set it back to 1!

The second thing that caused the memory problem was installing HTweakC 2.1, under bluetooth it turns on "Enable Object Push (OBEX)" Turn it of again! Turn everything off on this page!

So when done this the Widcomm stack works perfect, and the soundquality is very good on my Motorola HT820. Never want to go back to the MS stack again.

Also works perfect when using TomTom and a bluetooth mouse together with the headset :)

Hope this helps some people who also want to try this!

Greetings,

Pascal

In my case I just set BaudRate from 921600 to 115200 and memory error is gone:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WIDCOMM\BTConfig\SerialTransport]

"BaudRate"="115200"

I have Mio A701

gr.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] trion:
The settings that I meant were for device the stack was hacked for, namely the Tytn (hermes).

Stack works okay at 921600 :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] NikMel:
The stack works also on my device but after setting back the BaudRate :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] NikMel:
Wel if I use this CAB file then all the sound is routing to my logitec handsfree device.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] trion:
what does it do?

Because when I connect my HT820, all the sound is already going to it. Even if I turn the sound on the phone off.

This is nice, because if for whatever reason the connection between the 2 is lost, my phone speaker stays off. If the sound on the phone is on and the connection is lost it makes a lot of noise ;)

And this was also one of the problems with the MS stack. But the worst problem is that horrible sound of the AKU 2.x stack.

Hope this hack still works when the new AKU 3.x firmware comes out, unless that stack is as good as this one, but I doubt it.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] AndrewGene:
First off, any development news for this on the tytn?

Secondly,

I would like to do some research on this during my final year at school (computer science major) but I have never done any programming for bluetooth. Is there any literature that I can read??? I would love to help out on this project.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] johnburn:
I just got my grubby little hands on an HP iPAQ hw6955 at work for testing purposes. It uses the Broadcomm BT stack (Bluetooth for Windows CE, BT-PPC/PE Version 1.7.1 Build 7800). All I can say is, "Wow! Music as it was meant to me heard." I thought I had a pair of wired stereo speakers connected to my home stereo system. Clear, crisp, not a stutter, click or skip. The CPU was barely breaking out a sweat, I was loading all sorts of apps with Media Player playing in the background and it wasn't any slower than with Media Player closed. (To be fair, I did get one -- only one! -- skip when I load Pocket Streets & Maps and it was loading a map into RAM. I'd expect some contention for storage resources in this case.)

So I REALLY hope that either (a) Someone here can get the Broadcomm/Widcomm BT stack ported to Hermes SOON (I'd even double my $10 donation), or (b) HTC finally sees the light (as other OEMs such as HP have done) and dumps the crappy M$ poor-excuse-of-a-BT-stack for the Broadcomm one. If it wasn't for the form factor and ugly screen (and price) I'd seriously consider selling my TyTN and buying the new iPAQ, just for the good A2DP functionality!

i have been having trouble following everything that has been happening in all of this. I have read all 25 pages or so. I was wondering if someone could summerize what is going on. I would like to have all of the downloads for the widcomm developement in one convienient area. thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] JohanDC:
Does this BT stack supports the Dialup Networking (DUN) profile?

I have read the entire thread but did not find any reference to it, I am just asking as I am running AKU3 on my TyTN but unfortunately the DUN profile has been removed and I really need it for my TomTom Go Traffic Info service.

If someone can just quickly let me know whether I can get the DUN profile with this stack this would be awesome! TIA
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] new2city:
DUN is still not realised at the moment.. if my memory serves me well...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] JohanDC:
Would it be a lot of work to try it out and see whether it works?

I know that in the first page of this thread someone listed some other profiles that worked out of the box. I would be very thankful if someone could quickly try/verify this.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] bruceng:
This is good stuff.

Thanks for the effort.

However, I can't seem to use the headset profile properly.

Even after I paired it with a iTech R35, & got both profiles paired & connected, an incoming call does not allow me to switch to the headset profile regardless of whether I'm using the stereo audio gateway profile or not.

Am I missing something?

TIA.

Hi guys,

Does your bluetooth stay on(A2DP) after you put the system into standby? Mine doesn't seem to stay on, disconnecting just after a few seconds? What's the registry setting to stop it doing this?

Almost there....

I have this now running on my Telus UTstarcom 6700 with TechnoShock's AKU3.3. A2DP, beautiful! Works great! My problem? It won't dial into my data connection! It says erronus mobile ip set. But this isn't every time. Sometimes it will connect, but as soon as I try to use the connection it drops it. Phone seems to be OK. Any ideas? My MSID and MIN are ok. My dial up settings are 100%. Any suggestions?

WidComm Stack development to SourceForge

Hello,

I have a suggestion concerning the development process related to this thread. As you all have seen it is very hard to obtain up-to-date information about the BT stack development because forums like xda-developers fit badly for coders and to the development process.

I propose that the current developers of the WidComm stack move the sources and binaries to the SourceForge or other open development platform. After that every capable coder in xda-developers could participate the development and (hopefully) the shiny new stack will be stable and ready within a few months.

Feedback is welcome. :cool:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] zomig:
Just installed this onto my hermes which has wm6, all went well with the install and i was glad to see the Bluetooth User Manager back. Unfortunately although it would allow me to pair my car kit with it, it would then not connect to it. even after soft reset.

This is just an update as i know this is still very much in development.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] iammaz:
Hi,

This sounds good to me. I've recently got a Hermes and want to help get this stack working so I can buy a bluetooth headset. I have no idea what superdave is up to on this right now or what files he's using.

For now I'm just going to keep reading up on this stuff. I'm tempted to buy a second Hermes for dev so I can still use my original for the reasons I bought it. If someone sets up a sourceforge page or something, pop a link on here and I'll check it out. I'm sure there are a lot of capable coders on here that could contribute. Including myself.

How good does this widcomm replacement bt-stack work? is it worth a switch from the ****ty ms bt-stack or is it to much trouble with it?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] trion:
With AKU 2.3 and 3.3 I had lots of troubles, sometimes had to reset to get it working again. Since using WM6 it works perfect :)

And if you first listen to music on the MS stack and then switch to this, it's just so much better :)

So yes, it is worth the switch :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] chrisryn:
didn't like it

I tried the widcomm stack for a day. Didn't like it cause I couldn't get the button on my headset to work. Maybe I installed it wrong?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] KevinBaker:
Hi guys,

I've read though the entire ~23 pages of this, apart from all of the other device chatter seems there has been fantastic progress made!

Running V03 of this hack, and I'm having problems connecting to my Nokia CK-7W. I've connected to my BT GPS with no problems but I can't set up the handsfree under any profile - even just as audio. When I instruct the phone to look for all available services I get a "An error occured while attempting service discovery. Please make sure the remote device is turned on, Bluetooth is enabled and the device is discoverable and try again".

The handsfree is working perfectly with the MS stack still. As soon as I turned the car on the message to pair the device popped up in the Widcomm stack so it can see it/pair OK.

Any ideas?

Edit: Forgot to mention I'm on WM6 Vanilla
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] stinger32:
Trion--> no trouble to find each other when enable bt after they been turned off? Does vc works? Does all functions on the HS works?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] trion:
You said the handsfree is still working perfect with the MS stack, but did you disable the MS before using the Widcomm stack? You can't use both at the same time, so first turn everything of in the MS stack!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] trion:
I don't get this question, sorry.

I don't use VC, so don't know.

All functions on the headset work, including AVRCP.

Standard it only worked with Windows Mediaplayer.

But I use Pocket Player and on their website you can download a WMP plugin, and then you can also use AVRCP in Pocket Player.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] stinger32:
is there any guide around how to install and configure? What happens to the ms stack when I install widcomm? can I go back easy if it isnt working ok?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jantsuh:
Poor project management...

Broadcomm BT SDK is free, it does not matter if it is open source or not. WHAT we really should make open source is the integration code (read: the stack) for our devices. SourceForge would be the best choice for that.

However, I can see that not very many of this topic posters are sw professionals. This explains the poor version management and buggy Widcomm Stack deliverables seen here. :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] KevinBaker:
Thanks for your reply :).

Yes, I have made sure the MS Stack is turned off. This is also proven by the fact that I could connect and use my bluetooth GPS without issue.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] KevinBaker:
Its here, second post of page 8. You must have missed it when reading the entire thread ;).

Really easy to turn off the MS stack, simple press the Comm Manager button on the side of your phone, and make sure Bluetooth is not on (i.e. click on the icon if it is) - done!

Hi, there...

i have installed tody the widcomm bt stack in kyphurs new xdal 0.2 ...

looks like very fine at all...

but... ... now...

i have an sony CarRadio (MEX-BT5000)

it has an integrated hands-free kit also a Audio Gateway functionality (Bluetooth Audio)

first i have to say that with the original M$ Bluetooth Stack are had no errors... all worked quite good... audiostreaming and also hands-free mode...

only error i had is that the phone doesn't send the RINGTone to the Radio...

ok i have thougt that with widcomm there no problem to fix this small error... butt.....

with widcomm i only can add a audigateway... no handsfree mode is acceptet...

bt manager says that the radio has no service for this...

also when i want to search what services are available the bt manager says no services at all... but when i directly connect the highquality audio gateway it works...

but no phone calls are redirected to radio...

sorry but i think theres a bit vulnerability with widcomm...

maybe anyone can say me a fix for my problem...

I have a sony headset hbh-ds970 and it can be paired to only one phone, I can connect the high quality audio without a problem to multiple sources, but to only one phone. So, to get it paired with the widcomm, I had to reset the headset so i could pair it in handsfree mode since it had previously been paired before...Could that be the same for your sony radio? maybe it needs to be reset and then paired???

Ok, so I finally installed this but I can't get it to work. I disable MS stack, restart the phone, widcomm stack gets enabled on reboot. I go into Bluetooth manager and pair the device, but then I can't get ANYthing to get to my headset. It's a plantronics 320. It sees the device but even phone calls (which worked fine with MS stack) don't get routed...NOTHING gets routed. Am I doing something wrong? I installed the cab, do I need to copy that .dll somewhere specific as well?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] :
I installed the Widcomm BT setup as was linked to a few posts above... But when i rebooted after installing it (required a soft reset), it gives me an error:

The Bluetooth Radio failed to turn ON due to insufficient driver memory available. You must perform a normal reset before you can turn ON the Bluetooth Radio.

But I had 26.48MB of free program memory, but only 3.48MB Free of Storage (is that the problem?)

So I attempted to remove it but when i try to uninstall it the device (i-mate JasJam) just freezes...

Help!!!

Can i get a list of the files, and their locations so i can manually delete them...
