Listening to music via BlueTooth Headsets

Hi people,
I just bought a Logitech Mobile Pro Headset for my O2 XDAIIi.
It works great, but only has the option to be used with phone calls.
Does anyone know of a way of getting a bluetooth headset to work with the rest of the device sounds?
i.e. Mediaplayer..
*Disclaimer: I have here by checked the forum for this topic*
but I am sorry if I over looked the posts and have created a duplicate topic

FOUND THIS CACHED ON GOOGLE

It is now possible to enjoy great music from your PPC ...without dangling cables, entangling with PPC and hassle free way.
Has been doing extensive testings, finally here is the setup
Equipments needed:
1. A Bluetooth Stereo Headset such as Motorola HT820 or iTech Clip S (see photo) or Nokia HS-12W see http://www.nokia.com.sg/nokia/0,,74203,00.html
2. A PPC that supports A2DP Bluetooth Profile such as XDAIIi, or Dell X50v.
AT LAST!! This is a major, major breakthrough in Bluetooth high quality audio streaming, now everything works and rocks! WMP10, TCPMP all works well! Can stream stereo audio wmv video with both easily!! with BT stereo Headset!!
The problems have been licked!!
Thanks to tip offs and dogged trials by many die hard PPC users who never gave up!! Thks to Desmdlow and others!
Assume that you have already installed this
http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/ha...load/22475.html
and still faced many hiccups
Here are the steps to solve this mystery:
Step 1: Temporarily cut the BTTrayCE.lnk file from Windows/Startup folder and put it away somewhere else.
Step 2: Soft reset. This will disable the BT completely
Step 3: Install the PDA2K_BroadcomCorp_BTUpd.cab
See
http://www.pdagold.com/forums/view_topic.asp?t=5012&fi=0
Step 4: Copy to WINDOWS folder all contents of folder Broadcom 1[1].6.0 0600 Updated unzipped files. See
http://www.aximsite.com/boards/showthread....ight=itech+clip
Step 5: Copy and put back the BTTrayCE.lnk file into the Windows/Startup folder
Step 6: Soft reset
Step 7: On your WMP 10 or TCPMP, play your favorite mp3/wma/wmv/avi then on your BT Manager and connect the BT High Quality Audio Headset Profile
Voila and now boomzz....you are in business....ENJOY great music from WMP10 and TCPMP with your BT Stereo Headset!!
Step 8: For X50v PPC only, to view and listen wmv video on TCPMP goto Options-->Video-->select Raw Framebuffer. For WMP10 can view and listen to wmv as usual. Can also hear/view avi video on TCPMP too. For WMP can toggle screen on/off, forward songs, pause etc without any freezing up!

I've tried this but my "Logitech Mobile Pro Headset" wont connect to my device when trying to select it to use this profile.
Any suggestions?

Thanks very much for the advice and info.
I followed the instructions to the letter but alas still no audio from any progs except the phone
I don't have the additional High Quality Audio Service available!
Using a T-Mobile MDAIII
If you have any more ideas, would be gratefully received.
John
PS Where can I get the latest ROM updates suitable for the MDAIII UK?

Bluetunes
I got my XDA Exec yesterday and so have not tested this yet, but have been successfully using it for over a year now with no problems on my SPV C500 (Orange Smartphone):
http://www.modaco.com/index.php?download=456
Bluetunes is a very simple peice of software that allows you to use your bluetooth headset to listen to hardware sounds including media players etc.
You will need to be a registered member of Modaco.com (free) to download.
I hope that this works and will amend my post if i test it and find it unsuccessful or if someone else does first, please add to this thread to let me and others know.

Bluetooth Audio problems

Hello all, well recently I bought some Sony DR-BT20NX headphones under the impression they were the best, so onto the problems:
I'm using leos latest 0.5AKU WM6 Rom and when using them with the default Rom the bluetooth headset can control the music that is pause etc but the music plays for 1 second if that at the beginning of the song then its interference. Any ideas?
Using the Broadcomm stack included in the Rom that you can install after seems to sortany bluetooth problems involving audio but destroys the GSM and the radio crashes 9/10times on boot forcing a soft reboot.
Secondly I'm using on my PC/Notebook with a "Integrated System Solution Corp." Bluetooth dongle with BlueSoleil software provided, with this im able to control WMP like on my device, but I don't even get the second of audio - its completely dead audio wise apart from a dull hiss.
So after paying £60 I'm none the happier with bluetooth
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Ok quick update, bluesoleil version 3.2 fails miserably at audio.
Using 5.0.0.0 now and it works.
Whats annoying is I have to pay for this update because they gave me effectively crippled software.
Ok so thats the PC side sorted, just WM6 to go.
Edit:
My USB stick came with version 2.x of the drivers, and when upgrading to 5.x it says the BDID of the bluetooth is already registered. Duh It came with 2.x, oh damnit now I can't get 5.x. Why would a company not want my money

Have you tried only WMP or other players on your Uni? Try CorePlayer and PocketMusic, they also support AVRCP.
P.S. Using a HBH-DS970, no problems with sound... Only problems with WMP sometimes

Had the same issue....installed Jetware Mobile's Handsfree extension and it works flawlessly!!! I use it on my Jabra BT8010 and its the best buy i've ever made!!

Do this and it will work just fine -
1. Install JET ware.
2. Start the utility, go to advanced options and check all relevant ones
3. On the main screen, click on "Turn on bluetooth". If it is already Checked, uncheck it and then re-check the option
4. Soft reset (Use PSShutXp or something which does a software reset. do not use the hardware reset button)
5. After restarting, make sure you freshly pair up your headset (Delete the previous partnership on your uni, and also do a factory reset on your headset)
6. Once paired, it should work just fine.
let me know if it works...also make sure you use the latest version (v1.31 i guess)

Bluetooth A2DP on my Tilt2: WORTHLESS AS $H!T

Ok, so I finally got into the smartphone game to get a better music streaming experience. MFRadio and MFScorn just weren't cutting it for me anymore. I hated the skips and the ridiculously long (and repeated) buffering time. So I first looked at Android phones but went with WinMo because they say you can run both OS's with WinMo (and the only Android offering from AT&T has a 12-hour standby time before the battery dies, according to reviews).
I have a Bluetooth head unit and have had over a dozen phones paired with it. This phone however is a completely different story. I have installed the latest "release" from AT&T (from a thread on this site). At first I tried streaming with the bundled Windows Media Player which apparently doesn't stream anything at all (with both the bundled and downloaded releases of the OS), then downloaded TCPMP. TCPMP is everything I have ever dreamed of in a streaming media player, but the only problem I have with it is that it won't connect to a stream unless I have already opened up a browser window and went to a website. Not the end of the world.
So, I get in my truck and initiate pairing to the phone. It sees the head unit as a Hands-free and as Stereo Audio. I can get it to connect for a split second and then it dies. I get a popup notification that tells me that the phone cannot control volume when paired to the bluetooth device and audio must be adjusted from the device itself. Fine. But then it doesn't work at all. At first, I wanted to blame TCPMP until I realized that nothing at all was working with the head unit. I think I got it to work once but it never worked again.
So is there any way to fix this problem? This is the one thing I wanted working on my new phone. Yes, the notifications that my texts were successfully sent are very annoying (as well as the other notifications), and yes, Windows Media Player for Mobile is useless, but the fact that I can't stream Bluetooth audio on this phone really makes this phone worthless to me. Didn't anyone bother testing this stuff before releasing this garbage? The Tilt is a paperweight to me right now because it can't do the one thing I want it to do the most. I might as well go back to my Sony Ericsson W760a at this point!
What can I do? I have not yet unlocked anything (although I have a SIM unlock code waiting) and have not yet flashed Hard-SPL. My phone has Bluetooth for Windows Mobile Version 1.9.2 Build 600 HCI Version 4.84. I'd do anything at this point to get this working. Windows Mobile is not that precious to me either. PLEASE HELP!

Hmmmm .... I don't believe you ever stated what type of headset you are trying to get working here? I find your problem to be very strange, even though WinMo does seem to be lacking in a lot of different areas, audio streaming via bluetooth stereo headset is definitely not a problem I have encountered. It even streams flawlessly through my 5.1 hooked to my pc via a crappy 8 buck bt dongle and still sounds excellent. Have you considered that the problem may lie with your bt headset itself?
Also, when you say that you installed latest "release" from AT&T (from a thread on this site), what exactly do you mean? I am running the "unofficial" leaked rom from AT&T on mine and I just paired my Motorola S9 stereo headset and it is playing great for me. You also may want to try using some different software, give S2P (Slide 2 Play) a try and see if you have different results. That's what I am using right now, but I have used TCPMP to play a few xVids through my headset and have had no problems.

The problem is not in the head unit. 25 other phones can't all be wrong. I have no problem using my bluetooth headset. That is probably why you don't see the problem. Anything more complex than a headset will not work with this release. The problem lies within the phone as soon as it displays a notification (which, of course I cannot disable) which reads, "The connected Bluetooth headset does not support volume adjustment from the device. Adjust volume on the headset itself."
That message is the kiss of death. So basically any Bluetooth head unit will not work with this phone? Sounds like shoddy programming to me. Yes, I am using the "leaked" release. I really don't think this release will ever see the light of day. Its horrible! You cannot disable notifications (I don't need to know when my text messages were sent successfully), and it looks like whenever I get a system notification, any program I am using crashes immediately. Like I said before, as soon as I get a notification, I lose the Bluetooth connection (which is like a split second before the notification comes up). I highly doubt this "leaked" copy will ever see the light of day, officially (unless AT&T and HTC do absolutely zero testing on it).

A little clarification for those who don't know... when I say "head unit" I'm talking about a Bluetooth-enabled car stereo and when I say "headset" I mean a Bluetooth headset

My Tilt 2 works absolutely fine with all my BT devices, including 2 Motorola headphone sets and my Sony Xplod head unit in my truck.

I was mis-understanding you about the head unit, I did think you were talking about a headset. Sorry bout that, my Mustang doesn't have built-in BT so I have to use a Motorokr t505 for those chores. It works well but it does give me the same message that you are getting about "volume can't be cotrolled etc" but I can dismiss it and carry on without any problems.

but the fact that I can't stream Bluetooth audio on this phone really makes this phone worthless to me. Didn't anyone bother testing this stuff before releasing this garbage?

Since you don't need your phone for calls, just get Sirius or XM. Ya know, considering you only stream music through the phone..

Did you try the BT headset or head unit with the original stock ROM before you flashed the "leaked official" ROM?
Seems like you might have a couple random issues, with the BT issues and the system notifications crashing programs. I haven't flashed the leaked ROM, but I do know that many random issues with cooked ROMs can often be cleared up by running Task29, which completely wipes the phone memory before you flash a new ROM. I think you will need to HardSPL before you run Task29. Might be worth a try, sometimes fragments of the old ROM interfere with the new one, and cause some bugs.

Bluetooth protocols can be implemented differently by different manufacturers.
I know of many people including myself who have NO PROBLEM with the tilt 2 and different Bluetooth products INCLUDING car radios.
I am using the "new" AT&T ROM and have no difficulties.
Clearly your pissed but your subject is wrong. I would suggest changing to "Worthless as $HIT to ME"

I think my problem is that I am getting notifications which seem to be killing my connection. Is there a way to turn all notifications OFF? The only ones I care about are missed calls, incoming SMS and maybe a birthday. I would like to try to kill the notifications first because I think this may solve my problem

You can get yourself a free reg editor (like Total Commander) and apply the following tweaks to modify the notifications:
SMS sent notification: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/06/24/enable-or-disable-the-sms-text-message-sent-notification-bubble/
Other notifications: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/06/24/tweak-and-configure-how-notifications-work-in-windows-mobile-notifications/
Although, this sounds like a band-aid just hiding a deeper problem. What you are describing is not typical behavior, and this is something else going on.

Thanks I will try these out and report back
For the record my head unit is a JVC KD-BT11 and I have never had any kind of problem pairing any other phone

Somebody else just posted a very similar issue, and found the app hAndyUtils to be helpful:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=741311
I think hAndyUtils might just be a app-based way to make the reg edits I posted earlier. But give it a try.

I scanned through the topic and did not see anyone mention this so I thought I would add my .02. The Tilt 2 is different than many other WM phones when it comes to bluetooth as it contains the Widcomm BT stack instead of the MS stack. (Just as an aside, on all my past phones, there were people bemoaning the the fact that it had MS, and trying to replace it with the Widcomm, so I am getting a real chuckle out of folks complaining about the Widcomm and wishing for MS )
In any case, the utilities (Blue music toggle etc...) that used to work for me to toggle between streaming in stereo and plain phone qulity no longer work. However, all my stereo headsets (I own three different brands/pairs) all work perfectly with the Tilt 2. And stay connected and streaming all day.
By the way, coming on a forum that is full of people helping each other and using profanity, anger and threats, is not the most conducive way to get your questions answered. The odds are that the problem you are having is already solved somewhere among the 6+ million posts in this forum. I do not know where or I would post it for you, but it is probably out there. Good luck. And if you find it, please post the link to the answer back here so that other serchers will find it too.

maybe it can come from the phone itself
i had a rhodium for almost a year and never got my motorola headset ht820 to work well enough for me to use it... (more skips than music...cant move my head without a skip)
i flashed to a NRG rom before trying my headset...i tried eveything as far as ref setting, different radios...even flashed my ht820...
no improvement...
then my phone fell in water not so long ago...got another rhodium same model (european)...and it worked perfect out the box on stock rom i can go in a different room than my device and still hear music with no skips...and it still does with nrg rom and latest radio...
so my guess is maybe some actual devices have bad bluetooth hardware ???

I have the Motorola S9 and the HT820 and both work absolutely fine on my Tilt 2.

Can I change my Bluetooth stack to MS? I have installed Hard-SPL and have experimented with cooked ROMs to no avail.
I sent the phone back to AT&T, went to Trinidad & Tobago for a few weeks and came home to a new Tilt 2 waiting at my doorstep (which could have been stolen by anyone!) and I am still having the same problem. So I guess I sent back a perfectly good phone!
I would love to try some different Bluetooth stacks if possible. Where do I go from here?

Did you ever try the solution in this thread? It fixed a lot of issues people were having with bluetooth car kits. Maybe it will work for you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591322
The solution source is here: http://www.everythingwm.com/forum/moto-q-9c/q9c-and-infiniti-g35x-bluetooth-problem-16833-4.html
And here is the solution. You need a registry editor to do this:
1. Modify the HandsFree plug-in:
HKLM\Software\WIDCOMM\Plugin\HandsFree
i. Change SupportedFeatures to 45 (default is 1135)
ii. Add value HFBDA binary, set to same value as LastConnectedBda
iii. Add value HFDeviceType decimal 2
2. Modify the WIDCOMM bluetooth general settings:
HKLM\Software\WIDCOMM\BtConfig\General
i. Change bdaddr to (no value)
ii. Change (or add if not there) DisableReopenAudio to 0 (default is 1)
3. Reboot device
You may also want to do the A2DP quality registry edit: Add a DWORD value of LineSpeed to HKLM\Software\WIDCOMM\Plugin\AV\ with a value of 320.
Give it a try, it may work for you.

I will give this a try and report back. Thank you very much for the response!

No luck. And my bdaddr keeps resetting to a binary value when I reset the phone

[Q] Bluetooth Headset

Hello,
I've got a problem: I recently bought a htc magician (used) and I always was using a bluetooth headset (hama, mono) for listening to music. Now, I was going to try it with the new htc magician but - it didn't work.
I must say I tried nearly everything. When I look for it with bluetooth, enter the authentification code for pairing, it works. Then WM asks me whether to use the device as headset - no problem until here.
But when I open up the "Audio"-Tab in the bluetooth settings, the headset is not in the list - I cannot listen to music.
I already tried using BTAudio. I hear the normal operating sound, but no music, no rings, nothing at all. It is all by the device itself, which is particularly.... bad in the subway or somewhere else in public places.
Now, until this point, I really thought that microsoft WAS able to build a system that works, which I see not confirmed right now.
I must say that I have an IQ of more than 130, and I build programs since I am 5 years old, but somehow, this is something you need to be god himself - or bill gates. Shouldn't have bought one of these.
What can I do to listen to music, finally (I could actually buy an mp3 player for 40 Bucks, but I would like to listen on my bike too, which is rather... unpracticable when having a cable almost strangling you).
Well, so I need your help.
I will NOT:
1. Change anything at the ROM of my device
2. Buy a new HTC
3. Change my opinion about Windows
4. Pay attention to ANY COMMENTS ABOUT MY NICK!
Thank you in advance

[Q] blueooth problem for DEFY HAS BEEN SOLVED

HI PEOPLE
SINCE I HAVE UPGRADED TO 2.2.2 I'M WITNESSING SERIOUS ISSUES , STARTING OF LAG AND THEN SLOW AND MEMORY AND ETC.
BUT THIS ONE IS DAMN CRAZY , THIS IS BLUETOOTH ISSUE.
AS ALMOST EVERY DEFY HOLDER KNOWS THAT U CAN NOT SEND SONGS AND MUSIC STUFF THROUGH BLUETOOTH , AND U NEED ADDITIONAL APP TO SEND THE FILES.
THE APP IS BLUETOOTH FILE TRANSFER WAS WORKING GOOD BUT NOW SUDDENLY IT STOPS SENDING AND SAYS TRANSFER COMPLETED WITHOUT ANY PROCESS OF IT.
ANY SUGGESTION WOULD BE REALLY APPRECIATED!!!
yes it happenned and now fixed with ES FILE EXPLORER app. and it supports unraring the files too.
this app sending audio files as audio/*.
and it's not making ports for bluetooth. so far succsseful.
it has root options for superiours.
so if u like it just download it from the market.

what happened xda no one has solution for this matter?
everyone checking and no one answering.!!!!!!!!!!?????????????

I just have two suggestions for you:
1. NEVER WRITE ALL CAPS! It's like constantly yelling at someone.
2. Never expect an answer. This is a community of volunteers that help you if they can, not of people that should help you!
Have you wiped your phone? They sometimes say that you should wipe your phone after an update. Give it a try, try to get the phone to a state as fresh as possible.
Cheers!

thanks man ,
i'm on it.

This is not the only BT problem, BT headsets do not work properly either!
I have tested ALL possible ROM's and none work! I now have the famous CyanogenMod 7, latest nightly build and no luck.
BT headsets only work as half-duplex !! Can you fuc'en imagine! WTF?! The other person can not hear your voice, while he speaks or some other backround noise comes from he's end.
I have Jabra Wave, which is awesome and it works with all other phones, Nokia that is. I have read on some forum that this is Motorola policy to prevent use of other than motorola headsets, WTF!!
I'm guessing this problem comes from the BT chip firmware that flashing andoid can not reach or change.
We seriously need a bluetooth firmware patch / hack to DEFY, and other motos as well!
I'm willing to donate some money to who ever can fix this!
[edit]Iqua Smart Badge Bluetooth Headset does not work neither, it keeps beeping 5 sec intervals![edit]

Um.. I have a Nokia stereo headset, works full duplex and plays music in stereo. I've had other issues but now fixed.

I have BT problems with my Audi carkit. Could this be related to the problems you're experiencing?
Sometimes I have disconnects when a phonecall is in progress, sometimes I get an error on my car screen saying that the phone is not supporting some function, but when I try again, it works...
Any ideas?
I contacted Audi, and they are "suggesting" to buy another phone

Sometimes i have the same problem but we re install bluetooth file transfer and i am ok

Guys thanks for sharing the problems of this issue but so far i can not even send an image or a video through share which is built in the OS.
and regarding the Bluetooth file transfer app it's making it 30 ports for no reason.
and here i am, it's stopped sending the whole files even now i'm trying to wipe the data and reset and it might helps.
