New BT Stack upgrade not compatibe with xdaIIs - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

I've tested the new BT Stack upgrades for both Imate and Qtek. I know that these upgrades where designed for the Imate (PDA2k) and the Qtek(9090). But I thought since both the xdaIIs and xdaIIIs share similar bluetooth hardware then the patches should work and upgrade the xdaIIs as well. Turns out that something inside thses patches is not right. :?
After installing them seperatly on my xdaII, they screwed up the device to a degree that forced me to do a hard reset to get it back to working condition. After installing the new patches, and after restarting my xdaII to take effect, the device just got stuck at the boot screen with the backlight off. Both versions, the imate and qtek, showed similar weird behavior :evil:
If we can get an expert's opinion on this we might be able to get this new patch working on our xdaIIs. 8)
Good Luck u guyz

I have these patches working on several phones by removing some hardware specific stuff unrelated to the stack.

A2DP "Wireless Stereo" Stuttering on new QTEK 1.30

I upgraded to the Qtek rom without any hassle at all (over the top of the i-Mate 1.30.82 latest offering with v0.60 bootloader) and find that it now pairs fine with my bluetake iPhono BT420EX and now offers "Wireless stereo" service in addition to "Hands Free"... but it doesn't work!
HELP - I feel I've come so close, but must be doing something wrong...
If I enable A2DP output by long-click on the iPHONO PLUS and selecting "Set as wireless stereo" (is there an easier way to initiate this?) I hear sounds from all the events, but 'stuttered'. Playback sound via TCPMP or Media Player and it is slow and stuttered. It is as if something has grabbed all the CPU and causing everything to respons slowly. I've got things like PocketBreeze installed but thats about all! Nothing is shoing on the running taks.
On the Hands free side, it has never worked. The phone ignores the headset (and did so on the previous iMate release). The JasJar works fine with my SE HBH600, and the IPhono works fine with my Wife's Samsung D500 so I don't understand what is going wrong here.
Has anyone else come across such problems, or can suggest where I can look for answers.
I have tried a cold reboot to clear any installed progams and it still does the above.
Any help would be really appreciated
Cheers, BossHogg.
RE
There's a 'A2DP Lag' patch somewhere on this board. Do a search, install and see whether it solves your problem
It might be an issue with headset compatibility. I have a Motorola HT820 and I don't experience any stuttering or loss of sound unless I am too far from my Universal.
Can someone do me a HUGE favor? I'm trying to get the X-Scale AKU2 AD2P files for the Treo 700w. From my quick reading of the rom decrypting threads, I need a HTC Uni device to compare the "merged" data from the update + original rom...which I only have a Treo 700w.
I need the following files: Avrcp_MPplugin.dll, bta2dp.dll, sbc.dll
The theory I'm testing is by using the Intel X-Scale compiled files instead of the OMAP compiled files (it appears the file sizes are different on each platform), the Treo 700w will be able to play files without skipping. A poster on pdaphonehome.com suggested this discrepancy.
FYI - I have already tried the AD2P lag patch thread priority patch to no avail.

Qtek Rom is one of the worst rom that i have used till now. A2DP is fancy feature even though i have applied the A2DP patch it was good for some time. After reset of my DOPOD 900 it never worked. I suggest use the recent DOPOD 900 1.30.111 on Uploads folder i can tell you it is one of the best roms that is used from stability point of view. Do not use Radio 1.11 as a.06 is the best. Cheers

It is NOT a fancy feature and, also, because you're not using a QTEK 9000
FYI, I'm using the QTEK 9000 + the latest ROM update + the A2DP lag patch with my iPHONO mini 450Rx and everything works fine

I don't know what version of the QTEK ROM are you referring. But I am using the QTEK ROM version 1.30.77 WWE with A2DP and AKU2 and I have not encountered any stability issues. Plus I never had problems with A2DP even without the patch. Works great on my Motorola HT820.
Spread the love to the Treo 700w users...we need x-scale a2dp DLLs, not the TI OMAP compiled ones for the torndado.

I had mutliple freezes , all application where the same as the ones that i have been happily using on IMATE roms. Can u guide me on the same Cheers
RE
taurus_bull2005
QTEK 9000 ROM update has only one version (the one you're showing) unless somebody changes the EXTROM or upgrade/downgrade the radio.
One thing to note. If you're not using a QTEK 9000 but another Universal variant like JJ/O2 EXEC/Dopod 900 etc things may not work out ideally since the update is customized to QTEK 9000.
If if works, then its a bonus. Otherwise you just have to accept some hiccups in the use of other maker's ROM. This also applies to say using Dopod 900 ROM on my QTEK 9000 or JJ ROM on Dopod 900 etc
I suspect the QTEK ROM don't work well on your machine and its affecting the A2DP and probably giving you those mentioned problems.
This you can test out by hard resetting your device and test the default programs to see whether the mentioned problems exist. Then test the A2DP WITHOUT other programs installed. If it doesn't work then there's a compatibility issue between the QTEK ROM and your machine. If it works fine then it must be some programs you installed thats causing the problem. Forget about the previous 'work fine' applications with your iMate ROM
RE

Just another thought. Could it be your ROM is corrupted?
Can you re-download and re-flash again?

Newbie question about bluetooth on my blueangel

Hi there,
Apologies for no-doubt coming across like a complete noob, but I am
A friend of mine recently let me borrow his Orange SPV M2000. He has burnt a different firmware image onto it - it says 'i-mate' when it boots rather than 'Orange' (the details are below).
Anyway, I am having trouble connecting the device to my Jabra 250v headset. I have tried all kinds of different connection settings but I get the same message:
Connecting...
(followed, about 20 seconds later, by)
Connection failed.
- Waiting for device
x Connection failed.
The device paired OK. Also, I have managed to successfully pair with a friend's phone and transfer files from his phone to my device.
This is driving me mad! Surely someone must be able to put me out of my misery?
Thanks,
Nik

Hi,
I would have thought that at least one of the 40+ people who have read this post would have had *something* to say?
If there is a bluetooth FAQ or troubleshooting guide somewhere, please point me at it!

Maybe i can help. I have had your same problem with my 250v (the same as yours) and my wm2003 rom.
The difference is that you say it DOES pair and when i tried (several times, with different wm2003 bt stacks) it did not even show me an available headset.
Other BT devices and the PDA in total, was working great, but... no working headset. I tried a different brand headset (can you still return yours?) and it worked. I got the S2 and G2 working, but i have had lots of probs with crackling noises on the line, so it was terrible to use (read useless, to my opinion).
On different forums the ericson HB... series is mentioned as working great, in combination with ppc2003, but i was too late on returning the device to the store and 1st kept the s2. Also you can READ and LOOK UP YOURSELF on different fora that the widcomm/broadcomm stack is not so good at all because even with a good headset, you get lots of cracks on the line when the headset and ppc are more then 1 mtr appart (or even less).
The S2 (very plastic and noisy) was working very bad for me and then my boss gave me a new jabra 250v. Unfortunately it didn't was discovered on my wm2003 pda.
Ok, so far my problem. The solution.
I have upgraded to wm2005 via helmi's 3.2 WM2005 ROM (on wiki). This has a sort of ms bt stack wich supports the jabra very well. Now i have no cracks, perfect sound on headset (hearing and speaking) and all other main programs still work (among gps).
So u choose, return headset and try a different one of flash to WM 2005. All other wm2003 options that are there (audio dll's other stacks, etc) i have already gave a try and do not work!
Sorry for the impatience. Looking at what I wrote, and how soon after my original post, all I can say in my defense is that I am having a tough week and lost the plot a bit
Sorry.
Thanks for the info. At least I know I am not the only one with problems! I am tempted to upgrade to WM5, mostly out of curiosity but also because it looks nicer (a poor reason to upgrade, perhaps?). Then again, I think I'll drop into my local Orange store tomorrow and try a couple of different headsets. I have had my old one for years now and had been using it with my Nokia. I am sure they won't notice that I am not using an Orange ROM
I'll let you know how I got on - probably one the weekend.
Cheers,
Nik

Bluetooth H/free & GPS Problems after WM6 upgrade

Hi all, First of all I'd like to say this is the most informative forum I have been involved with . Up till now I haven't needed to post any questions.
Now....
I have an i-mate Jasjam herm200 (purchaced from Telstra). Until recently I was running WM5 which it was shipped with. Apart from the slow speed of the PPC (due in part to the Telstra Bloatware) it ran fine.
Since then I have tried many cooked ROMS inc. all Jasjamming's WM black editions, Most of Schaps WM6 and a few others, and I'm having problems with connecting my HS850 headset & my Altina GBT709 GPS receiver.
The Headset,
After pairing the headset I found that when making or receiving a call the person on the other end can only hear me for a few seconds but I don't hear anything, then when the headset Icon appears on the screen the call remains active but I can't hear the other person & they can't hear me.
I reflashed the Telstra Jasjam shipped WM5 rom: 1.31.305.2_106_6275_1.38.30.10_108_ship and the headset stilled didn't work , reflashed it with the same rom again (various WM6 roms in between) and it will work fine.
Can someone tell me if the problem is with the HS850 or the WM6 upgrade?
The GPS,
Since I have started flashing different roms I have never been able to connect the Altina 709 to TomTom Navigator 6, even when reflashed with the shipped rom. I cannot figure out if the problem is with the Bluetoth or a configuration issue with my PPC.
I can live without the GPS as I have a stand alone TT GO 500, but not being able to connect the bluetooth headset properly is driving me NUTS!!!
Please Please Please can someone help me figure this out.
Squirt
Any ideas people?
Don't know if this helps,but I found the Telstra customisations that you can install give me grief with my parrot car bluetooth system - they mess with the bluetooth stack in some way. I found the Telstra WM5 rom didn't play nicely either, which was my main incentive to upgrade to WM6. Are you using a clean install of the WM6 roms without tacking any of the telstra stuff on top?
I eventually found a .cab with just the proxy manager which is all I needed, and schap's roms work nicely for me regarding bluetooth, so I'm a bit wary of fiddling with it now.... I know the black series (and a few others that must have used the same build) had bluetooth issues for me.
Thanks for your reply, I'm currently running Black 3.0.1 which has been the closest I've got to getting the BT H/Free working.
With 3.0.1 I can hear the person on the other end through the phone speaker not the BT, BUT, They can hear me through the BT headset........strange.
I'm just waiting to catch up with a bloke from work with a different brand BT Headset to see if it makes a difference.

General question about losing connection while upgrading

I THINK this is a general question although it happens to me while trying to upgrade a BA. I have done lots of unlocking and flashing before and have a few Wizards as well as this BA. Unfortunately the BA forum doesn't seem to attract many senior members who might know the answer as I have asked it there. (Sorry to re-post)
I SIM unlocked to use T-Mobile with my Cingular SX66 to do a comparison with my Wizard to see how this BA performs: I can't figure out if this is an older unit (05 versus 06??) or a newer one (400 MHz rather than 190) and installed a ROM called Helmi, which has lots of features I don't need but which seemed to be the only WM6 ROM around for this unit (?). Unfortunately Helmi himself doesn't seem to use a BA any more so development of this otherwise quite good ROM seems to have stopped before he ironed out bugs.
Installation of Helmi went fine and without a hitch but worryingly (as I would like to test out VoIP on this unit) this BA wont connect to the Internet. WLAN is off by default and turning it on just flashes up a list of local WiFi LANs: It wont actually connect to any of them. It does take you through the steps and asks all the seemingly obvious questions and at the end of the process, it just doesn't connect. Even more annoyingly, every few minutes (or when it doesn't connect), it turns WLAN off again, so you don't really know when it did this (or, of course, why). It takes you through all the steps and then gives you the Configure Wireless Networks screen which shows all local networks which you KNOW to be available as "unavailable".
A cook called Xplode responded that there IS a problem with WiFi on the BA.
So I gave up on Helmi and tried installing a new one cooked by Xplode being cooked by a present BA user, presumably? Xplode's installation utility (which seems to be pretty standard across the HTC range, which is why I am asking here!) sees the BA and correctly identifies my unit and the Helmi OS. I then try to upgrade and with nothing changing on the BA, the computer stops seeing the unit and fails every time with Error 101. Sometimes if I try again it fails with Error 150. Rebooting doesn't seem to help. When it fails, curiously the upgrade utility hangs on the screen and the upgrade panel (with no progress of course) stays transparent in the foreground. I am using Windows XP and the original radio ROM as i cant see how the Radio could affect how the computer sees the BA.
Or is the BA just a buggy unit and should I stick with my Wizard? (I kinda like the thinness and size of the screen on the BA and wonder if VoIP might work better on a 400 MHz unit than a 190 MHz one?).
Does anyone recognise these disconnection-while-upgrading symptoms, or has anyone managed to get any of the Wizard WM6 ROMs working properly on the BA?
