HTC Charmer TMobile .at - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi, I just got a MDA Compact II and i have a few questions regarding the ExtRom.
Right now I managed to "unbrand" the device, but now it lacks some important settings (like GPRS settings, MMS settings)
Some of this issues could be solved by downloading extended_rom_austria_2.6.2.28.zip and installing some of the cabs, which sounded familiar.
To further extend the usability of my device I want to know if there is a list of the .cab files explainig what they exactly do?
Another question involves the usage of a bluetooth earphone.
Is it possible to use a bluetooth stereo headphone and if yes, do all the headphones work?
If somebody has experience with using a bt headphone on the MDA compact i would appreciate a short message.
When searching the forum i also noticed, that it was not possible to use a SD-wifi card on the compcat I.
How´s about the compact II, are there any limitations or can i buy just any sd-wifi available?
Thanks in advance,
Skee.

I need a ROM cooking mentor ! Need Radio/BT A2DP

Hello,
would be happy to exchange french cooking, but ROM cooking is, if I understand, what I need to do, if I wish to upgrade my SPV M2000 (Orange France).
Could someone help me understand and manage my ROM cooking?
My cooking 'chef' !
Would like to get a clear view, understanding, method, issues of what/how cooking is.
My first goal is to enhance the BT capabilities of my SPV: BT is working just with the SIM phone, I would like to be able to have audio capabilities for any sound capable applications (mp3 player, IP phone, other).
I heard about A2DP profile, is that a software to add? a registry keys to activate? is that included in a BT latest version?
Could someone help me on that?
I use IP phone extensively, wirelessly, with global roaming, will appreciate to share my experience on using this almost WW free calling feature.
Call me !

to get a2dp you need to get the broadcom bluetooth stack and do some regitry changes
mind you if you do switch to that bluetooth stack you loose the ability to use a bluetooth headset for phone
IP phone require a much bigger bandwidth then gprs can give so to use programs like skype and such you need to be on wifi otherwise they will only send text
cooking is really a left over from the way that xda1's worked
with later models people just unlock the extented rom and place the cab files they want in there
Thank you, Rudegar, for your prompt answer.
So, you say that "cooking" is from past, and that now the method with extended rom is selecting/using cab files?
Where can I get the broadcom bluetooth stack ?
(have ftp client to xda ftp site)
Which registry changes I have to do ?
Why BT A2DP imply to have phone call with Bt impossible ?
Is there a strategy to have both ?
So many questions, but am really new at that !
Thank you!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=25443&highlight=a2dp
i link to the 2 threads about a2dp in this thread where you can download and see the registry settings which need changed
and i have both "a2dp" and headset on my xda2 because i use the i-Phono headset which kinda cheat with the a2do part using a dongle
and yes today people place programs they want autoinstalled in the extented rom and there is no way to place programs in the real rom like people could on xda1
Rudegar, you said: "and i have both "a2dp" and headset on my xda2 because i use the i-Phono headset which kinda cheat with the a2do part using a dongle"
This mean there is a way to keep headset profile along with A2DP profile ?
So your i-Phono headset works with both SIMphone and other audio applications?
What is a2dp part / dongle?
thanks for yor help!
Jennyfer
Rudegar,
the first link pointed to an unavailable file.
I got the Broadcomm BT 1.6.... from second link.
So, I just have to install CabInst (better tool?) on my BA? and install this cab from the BA?
Does I have to tweak registry?
I never did this and would not like to mess it !

I found this audio gateway registry settings from MSDN/Dev, does it apply to 2003SE ?
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...html/wce50conaudiogatewayregistrysettings.asp
It is like if BT is never totally activated (even on mobile 5.0), so perhaps these keys could wakeup some BT features?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=11729&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=50
the reg changes are described here
about cab files then personaly i just double click on them when i wanted them to install manualy
but otherwise you dont need to do anything with them apart from copying the cab files into the extented rom dir and adding their name in the config.txt in the same dir
cannot find it while file-exploring my BA.
Where is located the "extended rom dir" on the Pocket PC ?
being newbie, if I well understand, I have to use the extended rom unlock tool to access extended rom dir ?
and then edit config.txt in \windows.
I put my cab here.
And then?
- system update it automatically?
- or does I have to soft? hard? reboot?
be explicit, please! afraid to break my system.
yes you have to unlock and unhide your extented rom using the program
no you have to hardreset in order for it to install the cab files
I could have started reading the BA wiki first ! I did.
My best advice to newbies (as I am) is to start by wiki.
So, if I well understand, I can change my langage, and everything, choosing, whichever ROM, Radio & so on on my Orange France originated SPV, and install, by example, English ROM 1.4, latest radio & BT ?
Has anyone got Widcom to work with A2DP and Headset profile?
I can get my Sonorix BT stereo headset connected to both profiles, however the headset one only partially works. Call answer doesnt work - although cancel call does. Wierd. Mp3's stream fine in WMP10 though via A2DP.

Bluetooth Headphones Problem

I have an O2 XDA Mini S and have just purchased a pair of Motorola HT820 Bluetooth headphones. I have paired the two; however, I only get the Hands Free service (which works) but NO Wireless Audio. I have not installed any other software / drives and I am using WMP 10 Mobile to play the music.
Any help with this problem would be very much appreciated.
Thanks, Harold Clements
...Ok, I have been on this for about 4 hours now and I am starting to get a bit annoyed.
I clicked on Motorola HT820 and then went ‘Refresh’ and up popped ‘Headset’ so I ticked that and saved. I then clicked (and held) on Motorola HT820. The options that I get are Edit – Delete – Set as Hands Free. I think I should also have ‘Set as Wireless Stereo’ or something, but I don’t.
Please, has anyone any ideas?
Thanks, Harold Clements
Wirless Audio Hacks
I really could do with someone’s help!
I have read about the ‘hacks’ (zoad2p.cab, Tornado asdp, AKU2.6) but I am unsure:
a) if this is a solution to for problem / PDA.
b) what a hack is and why is it needed?
Please can someone help!
I don't know wich kind of PDA you have, as you can see everyone here calls their PDAs by their HTC's code name (mine is a universal), go to look the pictures of all the PDAs, find yours and search directly inside there, it will be much easier for you to find an answer.
One simple comment, your PDA has to have the Bluetooth high quality audio (is called be some PDAs in this way), see if your PDA does contain such feature, you have to activate it if you want to hear stereo audio, generally when you pair your phones for the first time, your PDA will show you the option already ticked, if you haven't see it, chances are that something is missing in your bluetooth profiles, go to your PDA's specific part of this forum and read, with patience and some luck, I'm sure you'll find whatever you need to get your PDA's stereo audio to work.
Most of the cases, are just the lack of the profiles or even installing another BT stack.
good luck
Thanks...
Thank you very much for your advice / reply, it was very much appreciated. It seems that my PDA is a Wizard. I will indeed search that part of this forum.
Thanks again,
Harold Clements
I don't think your phone supports A2DP profile. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Neither do i know if his phone supports it, I use to have an Ipaq 6340, it suppose that it didn't supported A2DP but with an BT stack extracted from another PDA (don't remember wich one) it worked, it didn't worked very well, it dropped audio more or less each 30 seconds for 2 seconds, someone said at that time that was processor lack of power -I didn't agree with this-, but I did no further investigation.
As far as I've understood, the main bottleneck for stereo profiles (or any deamanding profile in BT) is the radio, of course, if We don't have access to the manufacturers good information, good tools, much time and even more will is very hard to find a solution to anything, most of us do not spend lots of time with this things -it's not easy for anyone with a "normal" life-, and I'm not complaining!
It's just fine for me, the whole thing it's quite enjoyable like this, some more time spent in this way and it would become a second work.
So, may us have fun and keep an excellent forum up.

To be truthful, I know very little about what I am trying to do. All I know is that I can’t get the music side of the Motorola headset working.

a hack is getting a device which dont support a feature to do it anyway
if htc dident make your device to support a2dp == bluetooth stereo
you maybe be able to get it to do it anyway using a hack
if any hacks works for your device
as it differs
bluetooth support is never support for all profiles bluetooth have
plus there are bluetooth version 1 - 1.1 - 1.2 and 2.0

The zoia a2dp hack (zoa2dp.cap) is what you need, it will give you "Set as wireless stereo" but be prepared for pretty bad skipping, that has not yet been solved for all of wizards.
Also if you flash to a custom rom (Like Molski's 2.26 it'll have the patch automatically.)

Application audio over bluetooth?

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

I'm using btaudio
greetz
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!!
Welsh Biker
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.

That's brilliant, many thanks. I did as you said, and it is now working perfectly.
Once again, many thanks indeed

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.

Modifying the Bluetooth Stack

I am not sure if this is a dumb question but I have a Samsung Blackjack II (I617) and I have moved from an HTC Excalibur. The excalibur has a far superior bluetooth stack and works with an in car bluetooth kit that I have where as the Samsung is really basic and dosn't.
So my question is...can I change the stack by adding a .cab file for example and improve the bluetooth stack?
Any help would be appreciated as always.

I need Bluetooth help please

Hi all I have a v1520 (ASUS P550)
I am having problems with bluetooth volume of Microphone when in conversations using my in car hands free.
I have read that changing the bluetooth stack can help this or indeed that some third party stuff can asweel.
Finally there may be reg edits that could help me.
Can anyone shed some light.
It is wm6 professional rom and as I cant find a new rom any suggestions would be great
thanks in advance
Bluetooth Woes
Hi, I have the same issues, bought a bluetooth keyboard, the driver does not find the bluetooth stack, so it all ends there!
I can see and pair to the device but it does nothing.
Same Phone Vodafone v1520 = ASUS P550.
Has anyone got and answers, comments, help.
The keyborad manufacturer, iGO said, "We no longer make the keyboards, so there will be no further driver updates". Nice!
Any assistance would be greatly appriciated.
bluetooth problem solved
Hi, well I now have a a working bluetooth keyboard. Using it to write this post. The way to fix the issue? buy a different keyboard!
I have now got the Freedom Input unversal keyboard. After a little hassle 'unlocking' the driver with help from their tech support, very fast response, it all seems to work well. The instructions with the packaging aren't very good, but the downloaded manual is a step by step guide. Once paired and thr driver setup, you can turn off the keyboard and blutooth on phone then turn them both on again and away you go, it remembers all the settings. running on Vodafone v1520 - ASUS P550 Windows Mobile 6. many Thanks for your interesting site.
Cheers, Adrian.
