[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] gcopher:
I know that there is a thread concerning this subject, however, I am concerned that anyone has read my reply on this subject, as the last post before mine was Aug. 2007... I needed the seniors to read, any help[ will be much appreciated.....

Here is what I posted:

Bluetooth reception...........

Has anyone got an update on this subject since Aug 07?

I have the SX-66 version (Cingular/AT&T)

I have had this phone Since the middle of 2006.

I have upgraded to what I believe is the most up to date programming mods that are available: (other than WM5/6, of which I have planned to do in the near future, I have tons of software and utilities that only run in 2003 edition and I would have to reacquire.)

BA---PH20B1

WM2003 2nd edition

Ver. 1.42.00 WWE

Build date: 09/05/05

Radio Ver.: 1.15.00

Protocol: 1337.45

ExtROM: 1.40.125 WWE

BT- PPC/PE Ver.: 1.0.0.3900

The thing about Modding the chip or placing an antennae jack IS that, all of which that is exposed, in the naked pics of the Blue Angel, are all in fact, canned and can be difficult to expose, to do any modding, without micro precision equipment and a steady hand. I have accomplished modding regular cell phones this way, however, this device is a bit more at risk and can get expensive and messy. I have a few boards, I have acquired through buying spare parts for mine in the case of accidents, of which I have performed with ALL the help of these forums. I will work on this, at this point IF you folks do not have any other alternatives, outside hanging pointless wires hanging around (me thinks that is WHY the bluetooth and wireless technologies were implemented?) With any success, I will report, outside failure, with some sort of procedure and details, that maybe someone with a bit more knowledge and expertise can modify to a possible easier closure on this REAL problem. Sure there are maybe better devices that can, maybe measure up to this Blue Angel, but I love my Angel, even with the flaws!

It has been a great challenge and all of the possibilities that XDA development has brought to the table.

In the last 2 years I have had this phone this is my FIRST posting.

The Bluetooth has been my ONLY real problem. I have to carry it in my shirt pocket using a BT headset and it is still really bad at that. I have used some of the best headsets and gone to great expense, to try and alleviate what I thought, by chance, that I could have finally found one that would supercede

the problem, however, to no avail, I still have the same problem.

If by chance that I could actually find a bigger chip, I think I would have to have the right drivers for it and will have to lead a command string, I am guessing through going to the kitchen and cooking up some ExtROM for the 'moddapplication'?

Blackberry has, I think, one of the strongest chips available. I have a 7100t that i could answer from 300 ft of a house with walls. My 650 isn't that good.

I apologize for being long winded, I suppose I am catching up from not communicating in the past, but I followed the rules of this site, and I haven't needed to ask a question and not needed to help someone else, because you guys have had the answers in these forums. Without further a'due........

Finally, if you have any FRESH ideas or direction on this bluetooth delima, outside using a can opener, .........***please***, let me know............

Best regards,

gcopher
