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

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.

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.

Hi,
I followed all the instructions on adding a2dp to my ppc, I upgraded the rom,etc and ran the tornado thing. My 8125 sees the headphones and has the wireless stereo service, however, it does not actually connect to them as they even after I find the headphones theyt are still in discovery mode. Any ideas anyone.
I have exactly the same problem. I'll post the solution when I figure it out. I phoned iogear and they told me to set my 8125 to send the audio to the headphones instead of the speaker. Not helpful.
solution found
upgrade to the latest beta rom 225 and it should fix it
Sending all audio over bluetooth
Had similar problem when trying to send music from phone to the headphones. Found the tool, see attached, that has three small programs. There is a bit that has to be changed to tell the device to send all audio to the headphones, otherwise it just does it for phone calls.
The BTAudioOn forces the bit on. BTAudioOff forces the bit off. Just put them onto your device and run them directly. There is a also a toggle program, but it isn't intelligent. It does not query the system and toggle, but instead has its own tracker which gets out of synch.
Hope this helps. My apologies for not crediting the creator of the program, but I believe I found it at Microsoft's site.
Audio quality was very poor due to bluetooth on device. I tested with very old Cingular ROM. Have not tested with the latest 2.25 Cingular ROM to see if there is any improvement. Used Motorola's Stereo Bluetooth headset and also iPhone Stereo Headset with similar results.
Having installed TOMTOM6 on my HTC-3300 (t-Mob branded) I am looking for a way to route TOMTOM traffic messages thru my bluetooth carkit.
Obviously the phone calls go through fine, but afaik all the pda apps. sounds only run thru the mda's speaker.
Does anyone know a workaround or reg. tweak to do this?, I can't immagine I am the only one who would be looking for such functionality.....unless everybody else uses the gps function only 4 walking
Help much appreciated,
Frans
If your car kit supports the A2DP profile for Audio over Bluetooth and you select the option to use it all the audio from TomTom will be via the car kit, check what your car kit is capable of supporting - Mike

Thanks for the tips!
My Nokia carkit does not support A2DP, it's the old CK-7W type....
I will try the above attached btaudio once more. Previous attempts using this program were not succesful, I believe the bt hardware of the artemis was not recognized.
I remember that on my IPAQ 5550 I changed a registry setting, enabling audio over BT, but I could not find such an entry in the Artemis reg.
Keep you posted on progress, and thanks sofar!
Succes!
Just tried btaudio, attached by hotatomic, and it works!!!!
Haven't tried what happens if I get an incoming call yet, but the sound for TT6 is much better using the Nokia handsfree.
Thanks!!!
Hi guys,
I'm a newbie here, and was pointed to your excellent forum from one of the Mods over at pocketgpsworld.com.
I am running copilot 6 on an O2-registered xda Orbit, using a scala rider headset, on my motorbike, and i need to install btaudio.cab to mt xda in order for the insturctions to be relayed to my earpiece. My question is this - whereabouts to do i need to upload the file to on my xda (obviously somewhere in the copilot files, but i'm not sure where!!) and do i need to unpack it first?
Any help or tips gratefully recieved!!

No transfer the cab file directly to the orbit, (storage card is usually the best place to put them).
Then in file explorer, double click the .cab file to run it and it will install the application.
It's a separate application to Copilot.

i have a orbit and i installed the btaudio cab but unfortunately it doesnt work for me. do i need to change any other setting for it to work properly? i am using a motorola hs350 headset. i am trying to use it to listen to music on my headset instead of the internal speaker. i tested tomtom6 with it and that is still being heard on the speaker and not the headset. thanks
Connect the headset to the Artemis first, then run BTAudio, switch to "on" and then minimize don't exit the program.
Have you got software that closes apps by pressing the x button or something, so that you keep switching the app off when activating tomtom etc.
how silly of me, checked settings menu, connections menu everything except the program menu!!!
Thanks a lot mate
Hi,
I seem to be having the same problem as some of the other guys. The Bt software is installed on my Orbit, I pair the phone with my car then switch the software on. At this stage the TomTom voice stops coming from the phone but doesn't come through the handfree either. If I switch the software off again the sound returns to the phone.
Is this being caused by the format of the handfree kit in my car as mentioned on the first page of this post?? How would I positively confirm the format of my handsfree kit?
Cheers
Rob.
i try to install and it works, but when i turn on audio my radio goes in mute, is possible to send the sound only when tomtom talk?
Hi all
I also need help with audio features. Is there an app that will send all audio through the head phone socket (connected to autocom on motorbike) and phone calls through bluetooth have tryed the app in this tread but it wont split it only redirects all audio?
PS sorry for the high jack of your thread just seemed a good place to ask this.
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)

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but here goes.
I recently bought an inexpensive bluetooth headset from Germany, and I've been trying to get it to work with my phone (HTC Magician, O2 branded, recent firmare) for audio streaming. It works fine for calls, but I'd like to get all the audio from the magician to stream to the headset. I've downloaded and installed the new bluetooth stack from here, and that got me a little further than before. However, whenever I try to play some audio (for example, through WMP), it fails to connect to the headset for streaming, and tells me so. In the control panel, I'm unable to select my headset on the audio tab as the default device, because it doesn't show up in the list. Ideas, anyone? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
try going into bluetooth pref. then click and hold on your device name until it pops up and select edit. then check the boxes for the headset service you want to use
All I get on the edit screen is the box to change the device's display name, and a cancel button.
EDIT: my firmware versions are as follows:
R 1.12.00
G 1337.42
D 1.13.00 WWE
Also, I have applied the BigStorage hack.
EDIT 2: It seems I have a headset that doesn't support A2DP, so I'm not sure if it's at all possible to stream non-phone-call audio into it. I should have read further into the above-linked thread before posting; sorry.
Anyway: is it possible to stream audio to a non-A2DP headset? (help still greatly appreciated )
Hi,
I am looking for a way to stream audio from the Touch HD to my Car. Unfortunately the cars built-in audio system doesn't support bluetooth. But there is that handsfree-thing, which works really great with calls. So I wondered, if there is a software solution that streams my music from the phone as "incoming call" to my car?
I've tried "acbToggleBT" and "BTASP" and both didn't work in the Car, but they did work with a bluetooth headset.
It would be really great if somebody knows, finds, posts, programs or has an solution.
Thanks in advance!

I can't remember but there was an option to route normal audio to the bluetooth handset in my HP iPAQ which is missing from HD.
Believe me music streaming to HSF device will be as good as listening to AM radio on poor reception. Go get a bluetooth A2DP profile audio headunit like Sony - MEX-BT2500 (this is the one I use and works like a charm).
Thanks for your reply.
Perhaps I took the wrong words to explain what I am looking for.
The thing I want is a piece of software that "imitates" an incoming call and sends the audio from S2P to the handsfree of my car.
Maybe this explanation is a bit better...?
[edit]
have you tried BT Audio
it's a paid app
acbToggleBT always worked for me
try this
There are 3 apps
btaudio on
btaudio off
bttoogle (on/off)
i made a cab file for it

Excellent. I can get this to work via bluetooth headset.
Unfortunatley this didn't work in my car (which is what I believe the OP wants).

ausi - does this work on a car stereo i.e. does it emulate an incoming phone call?

All i can say is this based on using it on my HD with WM 6.1 & 6.5 (Dutty ROM):
Once you install the program and then execute it (Press On):
It will transfer all Music & Audio from Movies (Core Player) etc. to my BT Nokia Headset or my BT Car Speakerphone (Motorola T305), i do not have a Radio BT set so i can't tell you, you'll just have to try.
This Cab solved my problem as the basic BT HD ROM sertting only transfers the Phone audio while this little cab transfers ALL audio, so i would presume that it may help you with your BT radio, you can always uninstall the cab if it doesn't work for you.
There is NO emulation invloved here!!??
Good luck!
Hi Ausi, tried on my Nokia BT car handsfree but no joy
The handsfree only accepts an incoming call as stated above so some sort of emulation may be needed. Would be happy if someone knew about something...

Funny... my HD does the reverse. I get de BT audio but on the BT phone I got nothing but static...
I've got a Sony Xplod bluetooth radio in my car.
When I start up it automatically connects to my HD, however it only connects as handsfree rather than both handsfree and BT stereo.
I have to go into comms manager and bluetooth settings, then select and hold on the xplod in the device list.
A menu comes up asking what I'd like to connect as, and I pick stereo, then repeat for handsfree.
Give that a go. Holding on the device to bring up the menu gives you the BT profiles the device is capable of, so with a bit of luck stereo/headphones will be an option for you.
