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,

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!!

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.

1. Pair your device
2. Set the device as Hands-Free
3. Make sure you are near enough and have activated bluetooth
4. Run BTAudio
its the way it works for me

try this one.
PS: Start BT Audio before u start anything you want to hear over bluetooth

Works perfect now. Using is important

I can't get it to work in my car! I have a JVC BT1 and it has bluetooth built in. It works fine with calls (i.e. thru speakers) but tom tom only goes thru the unit. So I tried this BT thingy and it doesn't work. I can turn the program on but still nothing. What does it mean, set the device to handsfree?
Thanks

[APP] Auto A2DP ( Auto connects the a2dp on car radio )

I wrote this application because when I get into my car it only connects the bluetooth handsfree and doesn't connect the a2dp automaticly. There is an application that connects the a2dp by pressing a button, it's called a2dp toggle. You can find it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437726
My application runs the a2dp toggle command line options to connect the audio to a car radio when the mobile gets connected to the radio for handsfree.
Before you install my application make sure you have installed a2dp toggle. Just install the cab file. After the installation you can start the service with the "Auto A2DP Manager" found in programs, you can also stop the service here. It also starts the service at startup of the device after the installation.
The CPU usage is 0.1% on average and memory usage around 300k.
Let me know if you have some extra idea's.
I like to thank te people that made A2DP Toggle and Pavel Bánský for his windows mobile managed service, his blog can be found here.
[UPDATE 4/14/2009]
I just found out that I have put the location of a2dp toggle hardcoded, so this version only worked when you have installed a2dp toggle on a dutch windows mobile on the device.
This is fixed in the new version v1.0.1.
[UPDATE 4/14/2009]
There was another bug in the application, it seems that there was a little problem with the application link. This is fixed now. New version v1.0.2.
[UPDATE 4/27/2009]
The application has some problems in windows mobile 6.5. It seems that the service runs correctly, but the manager doesn't work.
So in windows mobile 6.5 install the application and soft reset the device. It should then work. Don't use the manager in windows mobile 6.5, it creates new instances of the services and cannot stop them. After a reset they are stopped.

sweet! thanks man - i'll give it a try later 2nite. Wonder if it will work with MSVC, hmmmm

Hello
Cool idea, but it will not work for me.
I want to use this App with my XPERIA and my Car Handsfree "Funkwerk EGO Look". I start the Car Handsfree and then I switch on BT on my XPERIA after a longe Time ago (because the XPERIA BT is very Bugy the Bluetooth connects but the A2DP connection does not appear. If I start it with the A2DP Toggle tool manualy then it works.
Does this app only work on Blackstone Phone?
Bye

bug
no it should work on windows mobile 6 but I looked in to it and found the problem I will fix it and upload the new version v1.0.2, I will do it now.
[UPDATE]
You can download v1.0.2. now

Hello wian007
Now it works, thank you very much.
This Workaround is what i'm looking for a long time, now I can simply switch on BT and play Music in my car and a other affirmative effect is that Bluetooth connects much quicker.
And over again, thanks for you great Work.
Bye

Hello wian
I am again
I am searching a solution to execute a command to pause my MP3 player if A2DP is lost for 2-5sec. I want to do this with a Mortscript, do you know how is it possible to read the state of A2DP (established or not)?
Is there a Registry entry?
Bye

checking the a2dp state
to check the state me the a2dp I used the window mobile state class that comes with the framework. so I think you could find it in the registry but I'm not sure.

I was just wondering about this...
Great work so far.
- Anthony

Quick Question:-
Are you looping to check the connected devices, or are you using RequestBluetoothNotifications from coredll.dll?
-Anthony

no I'm not looping. it is based on events that get fired when a status in the status class of windows mobile sdk changes. I used managed code to write this application.
But maybe I should rewrite it in unmanaged code and intergrate the functionality to connect the a2dp, instead of using the external application a2dp toggle.

quick question-must my car radio have Blutooth?

Is your app able to transmit music/navigations commands to my bluetooth car kit? In stock my ROM is not able to do so.
My old symbian devices where all able to to that. But with windows mobile all is different.

I'm with HD with v3.0 duttys rom and cannot get this thing to work.
Any solution??

Yes, to make this application work, you have to be able to mannualy connect your mobile with your car radio to have your sound on your car speakers.
Also your car radio must connect as an handsfree control device. This triggers the making of a connection.
If you cannot make a connection with your carradio by running the a2dp toggle executable my application will also not work because my application runs also the executable.

My application doesn't provide that functionality. My application runs a2dp toggle when a handsfree connection is made.

Can you post the last lines of the log file "a2dp.log" that has been created in the root of your device?
And does your mobile connect when you run ad2p toggle?

Hope this isn't off topic.
Has anyone seen text messaging work through a Windows CE device to a head unit?
I had a Sony Erricson W810 and the HFP/A2DP worked as did the messaging push to the car stereo. (I have a Kenwood DNX7120 with BT). Could read and respond through the Head Unit...I know a bit dangerous..but the technology worked well.
My symbian (N95) devices worked fine with HFP and A2DP, but not message push either.
My current device (Sony Experia) works great with the HFP and with A2DP profile but again not with messaging.
Just currious...cwh

It has a more lines, but they are all the same as these two lines
If my mobile connect when I run ad2p toggle?? My device when I plug the key into my car, automatically connects to the car kit bluetooth. No need for any intervention.

Yes ok, your handsfree is connected but does your mobile connect with bluetooth stereo if you run a2dp toggle. It seems that this doesn't work.
So the only solution that I can think of is that you need to set your radio as stereo output in the bleutooth connections. Then test if a2dp toggle connects your phone to the radio. If so restart the device and it should work.

Handsfree
I use Plantronix handsfree when I'm away from the car and a Parrot handsfree in the car. I want the Parrot handsfree to take over automatic when use the car.
Do anyone have the solution ????

[REQ] Audio Stream via Bluetooth Handsfree?

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).

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.

Bluetooth - how it handles calls / media

Hi all
I have the following setup:
Desire
Aux Input (for music)
SuperTooth One BlueTooth Hands Free
When I drive, I use the HTC Desire to play the sat nav instructions and music out of the Aux to the stereo however, if I enable Bluetooth, all music and commands are sent through the Bluetooth receiver instead.
On the iPhone, you have the option to route audio through headphones socket or through the BT device - but cannot find out how to do it on the Desire.
Are there any applications that make it possible to route calls out via BT and everything else out over the Aux?

I would really like this functionality too.
One option for you, is to long press the Supertooth in your Desire's bluetooth device list, and edit the options so that it's not a media bluetooth device but only a phone bluetooth device.

Thanks - didnt know about that option!

Does this option actually work for anyone?
I'm connecting to the bluetooth in my Mazda and every time I uncheck Media, it just re-checks it every time I reconnect.
