Just another happy user

@Sleuth255: I'm writing this enjoying skip free music of high quality with my HBH-DS970 and TyTN combination. I’m doing this while surfing the internet, using the phone as a modem for my computer.

I have used this fix for a while. Today I upgraded my phone to the official Norwegian WM6 ROM, this just made it even better. So thanks a lot Sleuth255 for providing this great upgrade for my mobile phone:D

@Steffan: My findings are that the registry modifications are essential for getting good quality music when using a Bluetooth stereo headset. The default settings on the Norwegian WM6 ROM was:

/HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings

UseJointStereo=1

BitPool=30

MaxSupportedBitPool=30

When changed to:

/HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings

UseJointStereo=0

BitPool=58

MaxSupportedBitPool=80

it dramatically improved the listening pleasure. I should note that using TotalCommander to set the reg keys, the settings did not get saved the first time I tried. But the second time around I was able to successfully set these registry keys. I also used the power button, on the side of the device, to restart my TyTN the second time.

Again thanks for this great fix!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] keithwwalker:
Has anyone installed this patch on an X7501 running WM6?

I changed my BT registry settings to:

SampleRate 48000

UseJointStereo 1

and deleted the others.

Playback is very good and now there is only a skip every couple of minutes or so.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Update:

I installed the patch and got one skip in about 15-20min of music. I will change UseJointStereo to '0' and see if that makes a difference.

I have noticed greatly increased battery consumption.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] nrm:
Great improvement - so far

I have a X7500 WM6 and Jabra BT 8010. I was setting skips every 30-60 seconds. After installing A2DPFix and NO other register changes I now get a skip every 3-5 minutes. I'll try this for a few days and then make the registery changes and report back.

Many thanks to every one - especially Sleuth255 - for all your help.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] keithwwalker:
I removed the patch, the battery consumption seemed crazy, I had it connected to the USB charger with bluetooth on and it would not build up a charge...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] nrm:
Battery drained

I had the same problem as keithwwalker on my X7500. After a few hours my battery was down to 30%. I'll keep the app installed and try to find find out what is causing the drain.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] keithwwalker:
Just to lend perspective, I had the patch installed and with bluetooth active, even though plugged into USB and charging for at least half the day, the battery charge was down to 40%.

Today without the patch, bluetooth was on and spent 2.5 hours in the field taking notes and photos and charge is still at 90%.

Quite a difference.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] nrm:
The plan:

Device: X7500 WM6 Jabra BT 8010

With a2dpfix installed, the X7500 has a constant drain of about 425 mA. With a2dpfix removed, the constant drain drops down to about 90 mA.

The Plan:

(1) Keep a2dp.cab on my X7500 and install it when I want skip-free music. Uninstall a2dpfix when not needed. The whole install/uninstall process should only take a minute or two.

(2) Search the forum for information on power management to find a more elegant solution.

(3) Hope someone already knows how to fix the problem and will post the soultion here.

Many thanks!

Hi all

I hv the D810 and hv flashed the ROM to WM6 vers. Bought the SE HBH DS200 headset. Pairing was fine - both Wireless Stereo and Handsfree function works wonderfully. But the WS funct drops out after about 1 hr and I hv to delete and re-pair the device before it comes back.

So I added the patch to my D810, and repaired the headset. The WS dropped even faster. Tried tweaking the reg to JtStereo to 0, and Bitrate to 48 (original 30). The WS function worked well until a call is made, and then it will disappear. Hv to off the headset and on it again before it comes back to the phone.

Wonder if any seniors here could advise what is the prob and how to tweak the reg or do something to have continuous WS and Handsfree function... :confused:

Hi!

Your "A2DPFix" is great! abosolutly indispensable on many device!

But it drain quickly the battery!.........

you can make a "GUI" to complitly disable it when not used??

The only solution that I've find to not drain the battery is un-install this application when I not use the A2DP connection, and install it again when necessary...

Tnks so much!

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ITAdmin:
Ok, now that I have unlocked my Wizard and installed Ferreira's "WM5SE rev 4.0 - WM5 without stylus but style!" I now have audio quality that is absolutely fabulous! The only issue is that it still skips when making or receiving a call on my Pioneer 9800BT indash stereo once I make or receive a call. As long as I don't do that, it plays perfectly, but the minute I go off hook, and then hang up and the player starts back up, I get bad skipping.

Since I now have a ROM installed that has the wireless BT Stereo profile, will this patch possibly fix the skipping?

Thanks for any help!

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Lars18TH:
It worked !!

Amazing man. I was getting nuts with the skipping issue with my Hermes and a Parrot MK6000. I even updated to the latest firmware of the Parrot.

Honesly, when I first saw the problem and the explanation on what the patch does, I was not quite confident with it. But it works like a charm !! No more skipping (4 songs out of 4, fingers still crossed!!)

Thanks and congratulations :D

Worked like a charm

Hi

I first tried to tweak registry, didn't solved the problem on hermes (schap's 3.54 FR).

Tried the ad2p fix, and it works like a charm !!!

No battery draining, consumption looks almost same.

Headset Sony Ericcson HBH-DS980.

BIGUP

THANKS o/

Edit 2:

After some tests, it's draining more than usual

From ~24mA to ~92mA on idle (screen off)

Tried to disable Bluetooth to see if it continue draining the battery anormaly, and it continue. It's never under 90mA (usualy 24mA)

I removed the A2DPFix then restarted, when my Hermes is idling (same condition than above), the power comsumption is 21mA

I just can't believe that this fix continue to work even if the bluetooth is disable -_-, but it's a sad reality ...

So now, i have to do a choice:

- Getting my battery life decreasing even if bluetooth is inactive

- Installing, uninstalling (with a great reboot procedure) when i need it.

- Or living with that helly skip every 2 minutes.

- Getting that A2DPFix fixed !

I've read all the thread, if anyone have a workaround, it will be very nice

To get my battery a little bit drained when i use it, isn't in fact a big problem.

The most inconvenient part is that the fix don't stop if bluetooth is disable. (so it drains uselessly your battery)

More informations related to my test:

I used Battery Today Plugin to get mA values

I'm using a windows mobile 6 cooked rom (schap's 3.54 FR)

My device is an Hermes HERM100

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] nemo3:
The patch fixed AD2P skipping on my magician (I-mate Jam WM2003SE) with the MS stack extension (see this thread).

However, the battery consumption is a killer for me, I had to remove it. If there were a fix to turn it on on demand it would be a godsend.

I had to manually edit the registry to remove it. It wouldn't uninstall automatically.

To Sleuth: Thanks for your work so far. Please add a way to turn it on on demand, or release the source so that someone else can do it!

Task Manager

You can use DogFredTask Manager to start and stop the service: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=280104

You can also create links as it admits command line to start / stop services (the only thing is that stop from the command line doesn't work currently, he will correct it in the next version).

A2DP skipping problems - It was Audio Manager!!

My Trinity worked perfectly with A2DP for months, but when I moved to the new 4.30 Schaps rom it started to have skippings after 10/15 minutes.

After lots of tests (uninstalling programs, monitoring registry changes, etc.) I have tested other music players, like Coreplayer, and it works like a charm during all the day.

So I think it's related with Audio Manager last versions (with older ones it was working ok).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] tagore:
I tried many things I read in this thread and also other threads and forums with no luck. Sometimes I had more or less skipping, but I could never eliminate it completely. When I installed the task manager I saw the A2DP patch use 53% of the CPU and when removed the patch the CPU comes back to 7%. So finally I uninstalled all and I just installed Pocket Player 3.51 and finally!!!! the skipping dissapeared completely. I went to Advanced options and changed some things, Decoder priority to Highest, Fill input buffer before playing, Use fast input buffering, buffer size to 1MB and auto buffer to 5000msec. I dont know if just one of those parameters is the reason of the success, or all, or a mix of some, no idea, but I can tell that without any patch or any registry configuration, with just this player I got the solution.

I hope this can help to someone that is suffering like I was before. Luck.

Hello

Here are my settings for a french touch cruise and SE HBH-DS980.

The original settings were :

Bit pool 64, max bit pool 64, Use joint stereo 1

I just changed for

Bit pool 58, max bit pool 80, Use joint stereo 1

and It work fine since. If I increase Bit pool to 60, the skip problem appears again. So...

hey ppl thanx a lot for this release.. it helped me discover that my A2DP can have a software problem.. i was thinking of replacing my bluetooth headphone but later realised that it is working fine on other mobile phones so was going to give my PDA for servicing or replacement...

One question is which all devices does this software support ?? is it only HTC Devices?

@all that use PHM regedit

Hi you all,

I can't get it to work on my Trinity at all.

I am trying to change registry settings, but actually, I have two questions regarding this:

1) When I change a value in PHM regedit, is asks "save changes?", I tick "yes". Is at this point in time the value already used by the system,or do I have to make a soft reset every time I try a new value?

2) Do I have to extra-save the registry? The thing is, when I close and reopen the prog, the changed value is still there, but when I softreset, the value is changed back to the old one. Does this come from the A2DPfix? How can I permanently keep the personally changed settings?

Thanks for your help. I still believe that I can influence the hissing at least a bit by changing the registry, but first, I have to know HOW to do this.

IsiT_de...

[Edit]

I have put the autostart-entry fpr A2DP-fix somewhere else. Values still go back. Deinstalled A2DPfix. Softreset. Some of the values stay (joint stereo). Others don't (BitPool, MaxSupportedBitPools, always go back to 58/80). Please tell me how I can be sure that the changed values actually are kept and used. Otherwise, all changing is senseless, if these changes never reach the goal!

[Edit #2]

I installed the older TweakUI. It also gives me the possibility of changing these parameters, and they actually stay changed.

BUT, I tried several random changes, and no success. So here is the next question: How do I change wich parameter in which direction and with which "distance" in order to find a working set? I am definitely not going to try out all possible combinations, with a soft reset, it takes more than a minute to check only one, and there are probably 100.000s of combinations.

How did the folks that found a working set advance?

AND: What the h... are these parameters good for? Is there a set that should work in every case, even with bad sound, mono and making the machine slow as hell? What are the maximum numbers I can fill in?

So many questions...

A2DP BT skipping on other sets...

Hi Sleuth255...

I know this will wound odd but here goes anyeway... I've tried everything I can find on the boards to get audio from an APACHE (I know EV set) to a Pioneer AVICN4 car system. It detects my device just fine and plays but the skipping is awful. I've tried the regitry edits on the bit rates and I suspect something like HTweakC for an Apache might help adjust the quality of the audio.

But I'm wondering if anyone has found a way to get good audio from an XV 6700 to a bluetooth audio player by pioneer--particulaly the AVIC N4 device. Pioneer tech support is pretty clueless.

Thanks for your help--an y assistance appreciated!

still skipping with built in car kit + audio gateway

Thanks Sleuth for a great cab!

Here are the steps I've done repeatedly and I'm still skipping:

- ensured A2DPstart is in the startup folder

- I see services.exe running in task mgr

- after a *hard reset* I directly installed your cab, soft reset, applied

your "latest breaking news" changes, soft reset

My phone is the Kaiser with Shifu's 27 May 2009 M2D ROM. My HT820 headset has *never* once skipped before and after your patch, but when I'm listening to music in the car it still does before and after. In the car, I have the Blackberry Bluetooth audio gateway for music, and for phone calls, my altima has a built in car kit. So in the car, I'm connected to *two* devices automatically, and that must be the culprit for skipping.

Any ideas on how I can remedy this?

Thanks,

David

In Sweden 3 recently announced the HSPDA or Turbo 3G as people likte to call it. Should get 1.8 mbit which is the limit of the Tytn (net does up to 3.6 Mbit now). It's not available where I live yet but it's coming. I'm sure I will use it intead of my normal internetconnections at home and at work.

Nice stuff coming from 3 is the new add on subscrition: X-series some really cool stuff you can use at a flat rate, includes Orb, Sling, Skype, Messenger etc, etc. At a fixed cost for datatraffic these things are getting quite interesting and with HSPDA speeds even moore so.. I only hope it will be available for the Tytn to.

Se it in english here:

3 is for sure the most progressive operator in Sweden!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sleuth255:
What ROM are you running on your TyTN jompao?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jompao:
It says

Rom: 1.18.263.2

Radio: 1.07.01.10

Protocol: 32.40.7010.02H

ExtRom: 1.18.263.9704

Sounds old, no?

When you upgrade to a new rom version is all special stuff from the operator in the ext rom deleted? Can I upgrade and still have all settings from my operator, Swedish language, keyboard etc, or is all that gone? If so it's not wrth the hassle of upgrading.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sleuth255:
hmmm...

yes, the TyTN ROM upgrade will remove operator settings for data. Odd that you're working skip-free with that ROM. You have the SE headset too.

strange.... there's still more to this it would seem.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jompao:
If you backup all the stuff in ext_rom and restore after an upgrade, then hardreset will it install all those special stuff from my operator as it did when first starting the unit?

I recently uploaded a copy of the swedish ext rom in the other hermes upgrade section.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Hiryu:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sleuth255:
@jompao: Yep, it will. Your operator's customizations are all in the Extended ROM.

After upgrading, abort HTC customizations by pressing reset when it starts the customizations countdown. Then, load your operator's customization cabs from the extrom dump you have. The order to load them will be shown in a file called Autorun IIRC. You can view this with notepad.

Not working for me

Upgraded my TyTN to South African ROM,

Your A2DPFix patch installed correctly (TaskManagers shows me that service is running) but the working of my Jabra 620s is worse that it was before (on original ROM 1.18 :( ).

I get 2-3 minutes of music with skipping and then I can hear only skipping with some portions of music!

During this my TyTN can't respond on stylus (hardware buttons are still working)...

I don't understand what is going on...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jompao:
Which players are you using successfully with Sleuths great fix and the A2DP hack?

Works ofcourse with wmp, also testing the pocket player by condutis which seem fine, but a little buggy, also forget about the EQ it decreases the soundquality if you listen carefully (listen to some acoustic music and it's obvious distortion).
