Hello, just thought I would share my problems with you after installing TomTom 5.
I use a Blueangel (badged as XDA2S) with all the latest patches etc, but with the standard ROM.
After installing TomTom 5 I get the following problems.
1. No Virtual (screen) keyboard
2. The signal strengh meter does not display any bars or indicate the number of satellites locked onto
3. When I save my "home" position it only saves the co-ordinates in that session. If I shut down TomTom and re-start it then the "home position is lost
4. If I receive a call whilst the navigator is running, my XDA really struggles to display the telephone interface.
5. There is no option to change screen sizes
I suffered NONE of the above whilst using TomTom 3 so I have just removed TT5 and re-installed TT3 WITH NO PROBLEMS AT ALL.
TT5 worked well apart from the points above, but most of all I loved the extra detail and the super quick rastering/vectoring on the graphics whilst on the move.
Does anyone know if TT4 is worth installing, and what are the advantages of it over TT3?
Cheers

Virtual screen keyboard is a known problem, if you use "Advanced Planning" the OSKB works fine (or at least it does on my unit XDAIIs), the lack of sat info is strange are you leaving it long enough to sincro - it could take upto 20 min for the first time? is it wired or BT if wired is the IRdA ll beams still selected - if so turn it off and the wired unit will work I have had endless problems with my unit and in the end swapped it for another identical handset - and now it all works - I never got TT3 to work correctly as I use a BT headset and the TT3 locked it out from connecting, TT5 doesn't work fully with the XDAII2s using BT GPS and headset - when you terminate a call it closes down the GPS connection as well - since I have now set it all up running vs5 with wired GPS and BT headset its great - it does exactly what I want, check you settings and get back to me with more specific info if you want - mike
Hmm, intrigued that you say when you use "advanced planning" with TT5 on XDAIIs as if I use this option the OSKB is still missing
Hi, I get no problems navigating at all, but still no keyboard even using the advanced route planning.
Bluetooth worked fine with TT5 and TT3.
Cheers
OK I need to quantify that - I use the advancd planning to find destination on the map and save that as a fav, once this done the OSKB pops up and you can re-name it to what ever you want, its not ideal but I am prepared to live with it untill someone comes up with a fix - tt3 was much better but not on the XDA totally useless, having said that the new XDA O2 have given me has worked faultlesly since Saturday, perhaps the first one was a rougue unit time will tell, first impressions pretty good, no reset in three days and satnav plus phone operable whilst on the road - what it should have done in the first place
Hello Everyone and welcome to the first program I provide to the community!
As we all know, a constant bluetooth connection drains your battery quickly.
Now what I've done here is a program, that toggles BT-Radio unter certain conditions
You can (at the moment) choose:
Enable BT when a call comes in
Enable BT when you place a call
Enable BT whe the phone is charging
If a condition is no longer valid, BT will be switched off, i.e. if you end
your call, BT Radio will be disabled again.
Requirements:-NET CF 3.5
Usage: Choose your options and select 'run and hide' from the menu.
This has got a hard coded smart minimize, as the program needs to run in background.
Settings are saved as you make them, there's no save button.
Please bear in mind, this is BETA.
It works for me so far and I hope for willing testers, so any suggestions for further
functionality or bug reports are welcome!
I've posted it under Blackstone because that's the device it's been developed and tested with.
Anyone who wants to install on a different device is fine with me, and as soon as it's stable I'll
post it on general level.
Enjoy!
Cheers,
Thomas
P.S.: Pleeeeze don't call it 'App'
Important:
This programm will only work with devices that implement the MS-Bluetooth stack (such as the blackstone).
Widcomm driven devices (HD2 or HD Mini) will not work!
As soon as I find a decent way, to control the Widcomm stack from C#, I'll provide a version for this.
Changelog / Bugs
20/03/2010
BT switched off after a few sec on incomming call - FIXED
26/03/2010
BT stopped, when charging was completed - FIXED
Code for Charging detection was completely rewritten
BT stopped after a few seconds on outgoing call - FIXED
BT switches on late on outgoing call. Improved (not sure if I can get that any faster ).
Basic functions should be fine now.
Added function to permanently disable BT below a choosable Battery level (this is totally untested...).
The GUI has changed slightly (I'll sort out a propper GUI later).
XML settings file has been moved to application directory
background thread speeded up considerably (prog. still shows up with 0,0% CPU when running in B/G.
Found a tester with a touch diamond
31/03/2010
Build in debug option added
how to use it:
In the applications directory open the file BtProfilerSettings.xml with a suitable editor.
Somewhere in the settings node add the following line: <WriteLog>X</WriteLog>
Restart the program.
In your device's root directory you'll find a trace file per day, named '3132010BTProfiler_Debug.txt' (thats the one for today)
Please note, that entries are not necessarily in the exact order, as there are 2 separate threads, one dealing with System events and one polling data every second. Thats why entries may even occur twice.
01/04/2010
Code for BT Radio control rewritten, now uses direct P/I invoke instead of MS Shared Sources dll. Seems to be a lot quicker in enabling BT
08/04/2010
New version uploaded.
New functions:
Option to enable BT in discoverable mode
Enable BT for 60 seconds
Enable BT permanently
GUI changed to black (as this is BLACKstone...not Greystone )
I refrained from creating a fancy new GUI in order to keep the footprint in Memory small.
It is still beta, but apart from the HD2 issue we're getting somewhere.
enjoy!
Wishlist / ToDo
Option to enable BT for 60 seconds manually (for file transfer or other purposes) - DONE
Option to enable BT when the Dialer shows up to reduce response time on outgoing calls (not sure if this is still required..).
Scheduler to enable / disable BT.
Separate GUI from Worker Thread to get rid of the smart minimize and enable Autostart option (WIP).
It looks very useful to me, as I use HD with BT handset.
I will test it and let you know how it works for me.
Thanks!
EDIT: Quick Report:
At first call-in, it turns ON BT and handset correctly, but if I let the phone ring, it closes the BT after a few seconds. After that, in second call it does nothing.
At a call out, it does nothing (BT remains closed).
Thanks for testing and your patience!
The first issue was a bug (switching BT off after a few secs), fixed in the cab. Please uninstall and reinstall.
Second issue looks like the program was closed.
Whenever you bring it up, please make sure you use the 'run and hide' button from the menu, to send it to background properly.
Cheers,
Thomas
Tested new cab:
Incoming call works all the time, but it has two little problems:
1st. Since first ring until BT handset is ON, there is a delay of about 10-14
secs
2nd. After BT handset is ON, the ringing is passed only to the handset and
the device speaker is silent
At outgoing call, BT Profiler still not working (it is running in the background)
A step forward at least
The time it takes until a call is being transfered to the headset is something I can't influence and I think, that depends on the combination Phone/handsfree.
All I do (at the moment) is switching BT-radio on/off.
Second issue must be some setting I think. With my Jabra handsfree as well as my car kit the phone still rings. The software does not touch any settings.
Outgoing call works with me, but I admit, the delay until BT is switched on is a bit to long, which results from the event being fired a late.
For this one, I'll try to catch a different (earlier) event, which I already identified but this will be not before next week.
Agian, thanks a lot for your effort. I'll keep on developing this thing until it works as desired.
Please be patiend with me, I'm working in dev for some 20 Years now, but I'm just developing my skills in doing smart device software.
Cheers,
Thomas
I'll test this tool on my HD2. By accident I found your thread, hope I'll make more accidents like this! I will focus solely on turning bluetooth automatically on on USB connect (since thats the only time I use it).
edit: It doesn't seem to turn on bluetooth when I connect my USB cable and phone begins to charge.
Did you check, if the program ran in background?
Switching on BT when charging was my main focus bevor I started developing the program.
However, there will be a new version withing tihs week, fixing some bugs with the eventhandlers, so you may give it another try then

Np. Take your time.
New version is up
Please make sure to read the notes in post #2.
Sorry it took a while, but I had to rewrite the charging portion of the program. the managed libraries are not very good in power line detection, so I had to dig into API.
I tested it again. On incoming call it doesnt turn on bluetooth. On charging it doesnt turn on bluetooth. Maybe the way the Leo works is completely different from HD? Or could it be problem i hooked it up to my pc usb, instead of just a charger?
Umm....the current version is running on my HD as well as on a workmates Diamond since Friday and it behaves well, although the time gap before BT is switched on on outgoing as well as incomming calls is still to long (I'm looking for a solution).
This version should recognize USB PC as well as chargers of different kinds (actually tested with Motorola USB charger in my car and different USB Chargers) as long as they provide power, regardless of the battery state.
My HD is not on Stock ROM, but on an Energy ROM, so its 6.5, same as yours.
At the moment I'm working on a version, that can provide debug information in a tracefile, that's probably what we need to sort out why it's not working on your phone.
Hopefully that version will be up tomorrow.
For the time being:
Have you checked (Task manager) that the program still runs in background?
(silly question you got .NET CF 3.5 installed?
Thanks 4 your patience!
Well, its not really about patience. I mean, it's your tool, take whatever time you need. Since I'm using EnergyROM, I've got .NET installed aswell. Having a debug option is a good idea, maybe there's something I did with my phone (I've tried multiple bluetooth solutions to turn on bluetooth on charger-connect before, KixAss Bluepower for example) that causes your tool not to work.
For the time being debug should point us to the right direction. I will be flashing my Lep with new energy when GTX theme from ElCondor is released, NRG cooks it in his rom with Cookie, and I dont see any bug reports anymore (so I think that won't happen in 2 weeks..)
well, if I provide software, it should better work

13:50:01 Device cradled

But, Bluetooth is not turned on. I also tried to actually look for my phone using a collegue's phone, but it just doesnt pop up on his display untill i manually turn BT on on my phone.
that looks like the HD2 simply is not responding to the BTon request, which I find a bit strange.
I reckon, Bluepower did not work for you either?
However, I've emailed the developer of Bluepower to check if he's willing to share his sourcecode with me.
Bottom line seems to be that I have to look for a different implementation to control BT Radio in Order to make it work on the HD2.
Bluepower didnt work for me neither, that's why was so happy initially to find your topic I've emailed the developer of bluepower over a month ago, no response so far.
Happy youre active!
I reckon he uses the same API as I do. Got no reply so far either.
Shame I don't have an HD2 but I'll see if I can find something in the API doc.
If BT Radio can be controlled by software, I should be able to find it.
Somewhere in the hardware interface layer I guess, as my ROM is based on Leo as well.
Hey is there anyone out there also having strange connection issues on Sony Ericsson's LiveView ?
I'm running a HTC Hero with the latest cyanogenmod.
I can pair the device in the setting. The display always just displays 0:00 AM.
when i try to connect in the software it always is listed as disconnected. when i try do build a connection from liveview side (upper left button) it's showing an animation that it's connecting to the phone. the led on the top left starts turning green, then the display freezes and it falls back to displaying 0:00 AM (and not being connected).
when i tap on the listed device in the software (guessing that you connect it that way) the second line saying "disconnected" disapears for a bit, around 5 sec., and then comes back as disconntected.
i once but only once managed to get it working somehow. DON'T ASK HOW, MAGIC, Star constalation, nobody knows, i randomly hit connect on both sides and it turned out to work that one time.
when working the time display on liveview show the actual time on the phone the display and you get all the notifications you could wish for. But at some point i had to reboot and it work never again =(
i had in mind that the my bluetooth headset (also sony ericsson, mw600 nice piece btw., loving it) might intervene somehow but it worked nicly, both at the same time.
please does anyone have an idea?!
really getting frustrated, had such high hopes in that device and really was looking forward to write some cool apps and plugins for it but now ...
First off where did you buy it?
it will release on November 19th in UK .. How did you get it ?
I was thinking the same

Bet five bucks, it's some kind of Chinese clone.
Got it from phonehouse, ordered it from the German page got it instantly. So i guess no help just yet ;(. And se support isn't that supporting at all
Prooflinks, please.
Sent from my MSM using XDA App
feel free to order it from
(not allowed to post links so missing the http and the : and the //)
goo.gl/T4y21
got mine since yesterday, bought on phonehouse website in France.
Several issues for me to , on HTC Desire / Froyo 2.2 non rooted
I didnt fond any trouble to connect it to my phone but then :
First day of use : several crashes and slow down of my phone
forced to remove the battery of the phone... bad feeling
Second day of use : Left physical button is no more responding !!!
(my device falled down from my desk, 1 meter high...I wonder if it comes from this)
Impossible to empty the liveview's cache, even if the application says "all notifications are now removed" they still are in the device memory...got almost 200 since yesterday.
what is working now ? :
all facebook & twitter notifications, calls history, RSS, volume up, volume down.
I didnt received sms yet so i cannot tell, and track seeking does not work.
I wrote to SE about my left button who doesnt work any more...
My order should be here on Monday. Can't wait
Same big problems as above.
I had already posted this in another thread before finding this one.
I am in Paris, bought it on Phonehouse.fr (59 eur w/ free shipping).
- I'm on a HTC Desire Orange FR with Android 2.1
- there are 2 apps to be downloaded from the Android store: LiveWare manager (this seems to manage the connection and the plugins) and LiveView (the actual tool to manage the device).
- the pairing is immediate (in Android's Setting / Wireless / BT) but not the connection, and somehow I got to it only after random manipulations and attemps.
- but the device connectivity from LiveView software comes and goes randomly. When I managed to get it to work it stayed on for about 1 hour. Then I went to the toilet, lots BT connection, came back, no way to restablish it now.
- I've NOT found a repeatable way to connect to the device. Several times the LiveView software crashes, or it severely slows down the phone to the point where only removing the battery could save me.
- I had time to test call and sms notifications from phone to device, however all actions from device to Phone did not seem to work, or they even make LiveView hang. This concerns the music player controls (not working at all), and some feature where from the device you should be able to display the lost calls list on the phone display (but as I said - it hangs the LiveView manager).
Update.
I suspect some problem with the phone Bluetooth software.
Now I cannot make the phone discoverable anymore - tapping the "discoverable" checkbox in the BT settings does not work. Tapping 3-4 times makes the phone hang: it reboots, but it becomes extremely slow and laggish. Battery removal needed.
SE stated on their webpage (though they removed that, only a * marks this) that music control is not compatible with Desire. Sad thing.

That must be it. At least I found out the volume control works (media volume only), but not the play/stop/next/prev track.
LiveView hanging
On Galaxy S with Eclair. Paired and connected OK. SMS alert worked fine. After quarter of an hour though LiveView hanging. I might had tried to get to the home tile and kept select button pressed which could have tried to start the music player, not sure nor intended.
Left button Green LED on at all times, screen of LiveView shows green Sony Ericsson logo. Cannot get LiveView to do anything. I am hoping it'll run out of battery and reboot! Trying to pair with it after phone reboot unsuccessful.

Managed to bring it back to life. Had to hold left button pressed for a looong time till eventually (20sec or more) screen powered off. Then reset via holding left button pressed for 8s+ as per troubleshooting instructions.
cpu goes wild
Huge problems with LiveView on Galaxy S with Froyo.
Aside from dropping connection a lot, it periodically renders the phone unusable requiring a reboot.
top shows btld consuming 90 - 110% of the cpu:
Code:
3354 94% S 11 20820K 1152K fg bluetoot /system/bin/btld
[Q] LiveView
It says on the specs it requires Bluetooth 2.1, my phone has Bluetooth 3, will it work?

I have exactly the same problem on a Desire Z. It seems to me overall that the LiveView is an unfinished product ATM. I hope for a software update very soon!
Threads merged.
I believe I have narrowed it down to the phone as the feature works after I reboot the phone. I noticed this when I got in the car and only the Media Audio led was lit on the receiver. When I go to the bluetooth menu on the phone and select the paired device (car receiver), Phone Audio is unchecked and I cannot re-check it. I have tried deleting the phone from teh car receiver and also the device from the phone and repairing and setting it up. It will connect and cannot select 'Phone Audio'. I also noted that after a reboot, bluetooth feature is turned off and needs to be turned back on. Once I turn it back on and click the gear on the BT device, I can turn on and off the Phone Audio and it will work for a while.
This is an 'all of a sudden' development as I have been running the same firmware and ROM for 9+ months. I am S-off and am running firmware 3.35.401.12 with the ViperOne 4.3 ROM. I have upgraded programs from the play store, but cannot figure out what might be causing this. Can anyone here help me fond a solution?
Thanks!
Keith
So just to clarify, you're using BOTH phone and media Bluetooth connections to the one single bluetooth media AND voice enabled head unit in the car?. One receiver?.
Do you have any apps running that will disable things when battery power gets low, like snapdragon battery guru?. Does your rom have any such features built in?.
Make sure both devices bluetooth lists are clear of old devices that no longer have access on resonable terms. Just to make sure its not scanning for another device as a primary.
Make sure you car audio system is running the latest firmware. It can usually be updated via cd/dvd/sdcard.
As mad as it seems, make sure the time is correctly set on both devices.
Beamed in by telepathy.
Yep, yep and yep.
Battery is full , I do not have battery guru installed. I did not change anything. It just now needs to be rebooted before it will connect to BT Phone Audio. Medial Audio connects and works properly, just as it always has.
I have a single Pioneer Premier head unit that I have used for years with multiple phones. If I reboot the phone before it tries to connect, it will connect and Phone Audio works. When it is 'locked out' (my term), I cannot select the block on the that is labeled 'Phone Audio' to check it. As the screenshot shows, it is 'unchecked' and no amount of touching it will check it. The only way to 'check' it is to reboot the phone. Oddly, it reboots with bluetooth turned off and when I turn it on, usually, it is already enabled (Phone Audio).
Thanks for the help,
Keith
After a little research it would appear that, apart from being right about the max enroled devices allowed is 3, "discoverable mode" is required.
Did you connect the phone to the radio or the radio to the phone?. Which discovered which for pairing?. Try pairing the other way from the way you did.
Can you access any options by holding or tapping on any of the fields in the picture above. Something to do with pbap if you can find it and turn it off, most likely under contact sharing. If not, dont worry.
Try turning contact sharing off or see if the stereo will copy them and store them so you can turn that feature off.
Other than that it could just be an incompatibility between the devices. It is not unknown for car audios to be crap hardware.
Beamed in by telepathy.
I am on teh same page of keithspg
I recently resetted my HTC M9 and as coinsequence I have been obligated to reinstall all BT devices (car, 2 headest, laptop)
It worked well (as in the past) for few days but now I have the same issue : I cannot switch on the audio phone !!!
Below the picture:
I could not find any other solution than to wipe the ROM and reinstall. I am now running viper 6.0. no problems. If you are not soff, you may want to ruu it. If you are soff you may want to wipe and install again whichever ROM you are running.

I am also having the exact same issue. I still have not been able to track down which app is the one causing this conflict. I have also done a factory restore and that seems to have worked for a time but the issue started again. It may be unrelated but... Have you changed the themes? I think that's one of the last things I did before it stopped working. Also restarting the phone "fixes" the issue for one connect/disconnect, but after the bluetooth is disconnected it will no longer allow to use phone audio. I have gone into the settings for the "Paired Bluetoth devices" and I am unable to check "Phone audio". It is not grayed out but it doesn't work either. This issue is driving me crazy, I hate to have to restart the phone every time I get in and out of the car just because the bluetooth wont sync. That being said, I have another clue into the issue. Today I was using the bluetooth in the car while on a phone call and transitioned to my Jawbone Icon when I exited the car flawlessly. I turned off the car, turned on Jawbone (so there wouldn't be a conflict of the Jawbone trying to connect to the phone while it was still connected to the car) Immediately the Jawbone connected and I was able to carry on with the conversation. I was really happy about this. However, when I was done with my phone call I turned off the Bluetooth and turned off the Jawbone. About an hour later I received a video through Whatsapp and when I played it there was no volume. When I pressed the volume button on the phone the volume bar had the Bluetooth symbol!!! The Bluetooth had been off for quite a while now and there where no Bluetoth devices present.
Hopefully this gives some insight into this issue that will help resolve it. Thank you very much!
I have also tried the soft reset and the issue persists.

I have recently had this problem on my stock ROM HTC 10. The HTC Australia website online chat actually gave me a solution which worked (!)
Settings > Apps > ... (menu) > Show system > Bluetooth Share > Storage > Clear Data
New findings on my phone.
I have an M9, rooted, unlocked and s-off. It has a stock ROM. I have had this issue for a while now. I don't know when or how it started. Everything used to apparently work fine. Could have been some update or an app I added at some point in time that possibly we all share. I had been restarting the phone as well to get the "phone audio" to work. That became excruciatingly tedious. I did find that, on my phone at least, placing the phone in airplane mode, waiting a moment for that to kick in, then starting up the Bluetooth, brought it up with "phone audio" checked. Then I would just turn airplane mode off.
Still a ridiculous way of getting it to work correctly. However, if this technique works for others as well, then I am thinking that airplane mode is disabling a service or something that is keeping it from connecting correctly. I will be looking into this as I hope some more savvy folks will be as well. If someone does figure it out, please share.

I found another thing that might be causing the issue by reading other forums. I made the adjustment on my phone this morning and I believe it to be working at this time. (For now anyway). I think it might be related to location services accuracy settings. There are a couple of ways to get there. In Bluetooth settings when the Bluetooth is off, you might see a link to it on the initial Bluetooth page. Otherwise, I found them under, Settings/Location. I have my mode set to "Battery Saving". But under the triple dot should be Scanning. Here I turned off Bluetooth scanning and things seem to be doing okay thus far. Just seems like it takes a few seconds longer to connect to my devices. However, so far, no issues. I may be speaking too soon. If I find it didn't work, I will correct myself in another post.

Same problem. Either after using my Fiat Car bluetooth system, or after my BLT bluetooth headset, my Phone audio stops and I have to restart my phone.
On my bluteooth headset I only use the "media" audio.
I am using a Samung galaxy 3 watch also.

Thank you!

Late post, but just ran into the same problem with my One M8 with final Viper ROM and my newly installed Pioneer BT head unit. Turning off BT scanning on the M8 worked for me as well.
Bluetooth audio and or media check boxes can't be checked
I was able to resolve the issue on my HTC One M9 by turning WiFi scanning and Bluetooth scanning off, updating the Bluetooth checkboxes for audio and media (both of which were unchecked and wouldn't allow me to check them), and turning the scanning back on.
Since nougat, I've had these BT issues.
1) BT will seemingly at random turn off
2) BT, while on, will disconnect from Android Wear
3) Related to 2, my Anymote Home (BT LE) will not connect
Is this happening to anyone else?
happen to me. i cant use my watch anymore.
random turn off ~ 10 times a day.
In my case, it looks like it is open, however the connection gets lost. I use it on my car BTW.
For a solution if I turn off and on the car nothing changes, if I turn off and on the Bluetooth, it is fixed. So, the problem is definitely on the phone side.
Mine has the same issue (random switch off, poor connection to my smartwatch). I would be very interested if someone knows how to fix it.
Thanks!
Update: now it randomly disconnects from my smartwatch (Huawei Watch) and needs to be reconnected manually.
I'm starting to hate this phone!
2nd update: did I tell you I bought this phone last week? Very disappointing...
Update #3: I marked Bluetooth server as an exception in battery optimization. Had no effect.
Update #4: Solved?
I did some research and I found that this isn't a Z5 Premium problem but a Nougat problem. I'm (somewhat) relieved.
During that research I found a possible solution: reset your network (settings>back-up & restore>reset network>reset settinigs). And (dare I say) it worked! I did the reset 24 hours ago and Bluetooth didn't shut down once! :good:
