Hello all chefs, I'm having a pain with the BT interface to my car kit and headset on the current ROM, on other ROM's its been ok, is there any way to create a CAB with only the bluetooth components and their dependancies in? If so can we populate this thread with ones from your ROM's
BT
How I would appreciate this...
Off-topic a bit maybe, but I have been trying for long without luck to backup pairing (registry) of GPS and car BT devices and then reinstall them (either after flashing same ROM or different one).
BT
The problem seems to be that BT connectivity works with some WM6 ROMs (original HTC and some of Schaps for example) but not with all.
I use Pays ROMs which are quite excellent but BT is not working with my Audi MMI. It worked with HTC Original.
Same problem over here
Same problem over here, Original HTC WM6 Rom and Schaps work ok. Others keep conecting and disconecting win an Audi handsfree Bluetooh radio.
so maybe SCHAPs will let us know what he has done differently, I have found the same occurs for me, I had an older SCHAPs rom installed, I decided to move over to a clean more up to date rom which has poor BT quality and performance for some bizarre reason..
Bluetooth
Which of Schaps WM6 ROM versions are working with Audi MMI?
I think people's best bet (and I promise this isn't the same glib answer people give a lot around here) but your best bet is to run a search.
There are quite a few versions of Bluetooth 'software' around - and I don't mean the external programs but the whole internal software 'mechanism' of bluetooth in windows devices. The 'stack' that largely controls bluetooth has a number of different versions and I'm 90% convinced that I've seen OEMs floating about for it.
Rather than the XDA search (which has had problems lately), try using google and search for the terms you want with site:forum.xda-developers.com after. Thus (DON'T include the inverted commas) you'd maybe put:
"bluetooth stack site:forum.xda-developers.com"
into Google and it will prob find your info. Sorry I'm not being more specific.

Hello all,
I've recently installed Pug's modified ROM for Alpine (EXT 1.11.162, Camera fixed, O2 stuff stripped, Radio 1.04).
I was very happy with it happy until today, when I wanted to re-install TomTom and of course pair the BT GPS. Alas, the BlueTooth stack (Broadcom 1.0.0.3900) does not allow one to create a Serial Port Profile connection with a BT device.
Before that, I'd used the original O2 ROM and a Qtek 2020i ROM, both had SPP. I even think the Qtek ROM had a MS stack but I'm not sure.
Question is : is it possible to add *just* the SPP profile ?
I'm "downgrading" to O2's original 1.11.169 ROM - 1.00 Radio in the meantime. Apart from that, how to solve this ?
I've tried using the 1.6.0600 CAB (under /BlueAngel/CABS in the FTP) but I must have done it wrong, for it totally screwed up my device and I had to hard reset. Too bad there aren't any BT upgrade instructions with it
How about going for a Microsoft BT stack ? Is that even possible ?
Pug, don't take me wrong : you've done an excellent job, and I'm sure this isn't your fault
Cheers !
Mr_Smoke
SPP service not detected with BT GPS
Right, I'm narrowing it down.
I've just installed a Qtek 1.11.02FRE/Radio1.02.00 => it works.
I wrongly assumed that the SPP profile should appear when one wishes to create a new BT connection. In fact, what I did with the FRE ROM is : explore BT device, and when it finds my BT GPS, it checks the services it supports, and finds SPP alright.
The cooked .162 ROM didn't do that, and I have no clue why.
I'll try another couple of ROMs and see what comes out of it. My poor XDA IIi has had about 10 ROM uploads today
Will keep you posted...
False alarm
Guess what ... It works with pug's ROM.
No idea what didn't work out the first time.
Sorry for the noise
Cheers !
I have read every post about MS bluetooth stack vs widcomm etc....
I know someone can build a cab file that will uninstall the MS one and replace with the newest widcomm stack.
I LOVE my universal but I carry TWO phones with me because the universal's connection via bluetooth is not PERFECT for phone calls like the blackberry (oh i fking hate the blackberry for everything else).
I REALLY REALLY REALLY want to use only my Universal but the static on bluetooth KILLS me because I am on the phone 10 hours a day.
PLEASE please help me. Fish
This file fix Blue Tooth
Bluetooth stack
I would second Fish's comments about the Univerasl and the Bluetooth stack. I have bluetooth in my car and it is great WHEN it works. When it doesn't work it takes a lot of tinkering to get the car to recognize the phone again. I'm of course not sure if the issue is on the Universal side, but Bluetooth turns it self off, so there is some kind of problem. I have tried different radios, currently 1.13 (tried 1.14 as well, but went back). I'm very interested in finding a solution (not using two phones), can you please provide some detail on what the CAB file does to Bluetooth?
Thanks,
Sven

What exactly does this file fix/change ?
I've just installed the WM6 crossbow helmi_c version
do I still need this file ?
This is a Stack changer to change from MS BT stack to Cambridge Silicon Radio BT stack. Originally developed for Dell AXIM (about what I've found). Seems to work fine there, but need to uninstall/reinstall after every soft-reset because of a volume lock bug.

I'd rather go with the widecomm BT
I installed the Hermes Widcomm BT stack on my Universal. Sound is great, but the rest is troublesome. We need a developer to fix the code for us so it works on the UNiversal .
Check my thread in UNiversal/accessories. Or move that thread over here please!

Tried out BT Stack change for Hermes patch/program.
TEST RESULTS ON UNIVERSAL WITH WM6 (Midget aka Helmi unreleased)
Sound IS great. But other than that, this program does not work very well on my device. Of course this is designed for Hermes but I gave it a shot.
Issues:
1:
Screen flickers (only when this BT is turned on).
Flickers really bad and unable to use device.
Fix: set the device to standby (power button) and wake it up again. Flickering gone
2:
Once BT is deactivated for a few minutes I can't start it again.
Fix: No fix found yet. Only a Soft-reset and directly activate BT works.
3:
I can't use my GSM/UMTS connection anymore. Trying endlessly. Even after soft-reset's I can't connect. WiFi works fine though.
Fix: No fix found yet.
4:
Unable to uninstall this program. Tried several times. I get to the "Soft Reset Device Yes/Cancel". I soft reset, program still there and working.
5:
Hard-Reset, complete setup with WAP, MMS, MAIL etc.
Installed Widcomm BT Stack again.
Soft-reset:
Screen flickering (fix)
No 3G/UMTS connection avalible anymore. Even when BT stack is completly shut down.
We need a specific one for our Universal. Who's up to fixing this for us?
KEEPING this post updated.

Quoted from my A2DP/AVRCP thread in accessories.
Even with the new WM6 roms - I have tried ALLLLLLLLLL of them the bluetooth phone quality sucks.
I am using the new Pdaviet 2.0.03 (something like that) and i have tried
THREE different headsets
Jabra BT250v
Jabra BT500
Jabra BT500v
All have the same crackly sound issue. But with my blackberry (ass phone, i HATE it) the sound is PERFECT.
I am soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo tired of carrying two phones with me - i can not live without my memory (or i mean the universal, which i use as my personal assistant). But my clients can not live with the quality of the phone call connection. Now if I do not use my bluetooth and hold the GIANT universal up to my head (kinda like a military field radio) then the clarity of the call is great.
It is the Bluetooth stack i am 100% sure of it.
OMG Helmi_c let me have your widcomm stack PLEASE I will even pay you for it.

Thanks for the info
I changed the channel in the registry of the device to channel 5 as suggested on that webpage. It was the same quality. I then tried a few other channels and the same results - connection quality still staticy.
Thank you very much for trying to help me though. Fish

I'm also worried with the same issue, because I've exactly the same problem. But I don't think only altering of BT stack should fix the problem. My understanding is, something is also to be done in radio (rom) side itself. Because I was using a different radio rom last year at about May or June and my BT headset worked perfect. But I can't remember now about what build that was, because later on I've updated my radio to few other releases.
Radio rom has NOTHING to do with the Bluetooth or Wifi - It's ONLY the firmware for the GSM chip.

We know the MS BT stack is crappy. I found out today that Helmi_c is developing one. But, still, this thread should be more about how to resolve the BT stack change (or just shut it until our friend Helmi_c finishes his school stuff and gets back to being the ROM-N3rd in need of more RAM that we all love so much) than bringing up more issues about the MS BT stack.
Thanks.
guys,tried almost all roms on my universal,some of them works a few days,after 3 months i flashed with the good old official rom,better and stable than all
anyway,the only reason for this waste of time was this a2dp issue,being not able to listen music to my motorokr(tested with 2 laptops and 2 htc,working great)
so i think is just some kind of incompatibility motorokr-universal(yes,i try all the a2dp hacks/registry editing found here
I've searched around for this and can't find anything, so maybe someone can help to point me in the right direction or let me know that at least the problem is known but not fixed yet.
I can't get Wifi and Bluetooth to work on my 8525 with WM6, currently using Schap's 3.54c rom and radio version 1.48.
I have motorola s805 stereo bluetooth headphones and would like to stream radio over my work's wifi and hear it on my headphones.
The problem is Neither wifi or bluetooth work reliably when used at the same time, (no problems individually). I have even tried reducing the bit pool, but can't take it below 24 because it sounds to bad then, but it still doesn't work.
Anyone have any ideas or can at least verify you have the same problem?
I have the same issue when trying to play internet radio over wifi with my ht820 a2dp linked to the jasjam (Sleuths v2 rom). The only time i ever got a2dp and wifi streaming to work was with the widcomm bt driver that is now extinct.
Thus i have come to the conclusion that the problem is not with the hw but has more to do with the standard ms bt stack.
If anyone has found a workaround please do share
Thats a start
Thanks, that is helpful.
I remember seeing a widcomm stack thread....
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Widcomm_stack
I'm going to check that out, also if there is a specific rom that comes with the widcomm stack I'd be interested to know.
I find that with bluetooth turned on I can associate to my Cisco AP at all. As soon as I turn Bluetooth off it works fine.
I had hoped my issue was due to the way the particular WM6 was put together but now Im using offical Dopod and it is the same.
Widcomm stack
Well I found this
http://www.htc-devs.com/uploads/Univ...m_bt_stack.CAB
at the end of the Widcomm stack for Hermes development thread.
I'm not sure where it came from, but I installed it and so far I can use IE while connected to my home wireless network, and listen to music on my headphones.
The com manager will not show bluetooth as being on, but go to settings-bluetooth and you can re-pair.
Currently I'm getting some hiccups, but its working at least. I'll keep you updated and I would still like to see a rom that incorporates this stack so that the com manager works right.
It also changes the headset icon on the top bar.
Streaming!
I'm streaming SomaFM with no problems!
AVRCP problems
I didn't notice this at first, but after the widcomm stack has been installed the AVRCP functions don't work... so Im going back.
AVRCP
It works in WMP, just not audiomanager anymore.
Bricking Blog
Pretty much what this thread has turned into.
If you install that cab above, don't uninstall it, you'll get bricked.

Ok so it seems to be a pretty universal feeling that the bt does not work well on the Hermes. I personally am having trouble with filesharing.
So i searched (forum and google) and found different threads for different bt stacks, but I want to know what is a solid, stable, well-working one I can put on my phone?
I was under the impression that the BT stacks were pretty well intertwined with the ROM making them all but impossible to mix and match. But then I haven't really tried myself, so don't let me rain on your parade.
If anyone would know the answer to this question, it would be Sleuth. He is best man for tweaking BT that I know of. BTW, I haven't had any trouble BT filesharing (assuming you mean objectpush?) with SuperD-Lite. What are you trying to share with?

Oh i see. Im not very knowledgeable about how bt is incorporated and all.
Well I've had trouble finding, linking to, and sending files to my bro's phone (it sometimes works, sometimes doesnt). First he had an LG CU500, now its a Blackberry 7130c. Same with each. I've tried the "file explorer to find file and select 'beam file'" method and Dr. Yar's bluetooth app. Working bt isnt life or death for me, but it was always handy to share a ringtone, etc.
I just tried again with the blackberry. I went in with file explorer, chose a small mp3 on my storage card to send, chose "beam file", waited till his device showed up, clicked on it, and then it said "failed". Is anyone else having similar issues?
EDIT: Ok so now i go and find my old Razr cuz i know bt works on there, and lo and behold it sent! I guess its sometin about the blackberry. Although im still interested in if htere are any ways to improve/upgrade bt.
There was development underway on the Widcomm Stack nearly a year ago... check out this from the wiki Hermes Widcomm Stack I think you will find your answer there.
...and yet I find this stack 10000% better than what was on my 6700.
Especailly with my Audi, the BT never turns off when the phone goes to sleep and all my contacts show up in the HID.
It has been perfect so far!
I had issues with Bluetooth when I was using the latest official WM5 release for my Cingular 8525. None of my Bluetooth headsets would stay connected or even paired. But since upgrading to the "official" AT&T WM6 ROM, Bluetooth works just fine!
I have had very little if any BT issues using vp3G's 3.0 ROM. Very happy but waiting for 4.0!
I'm on Schaps 3.54c and my 8525 has been perfect with my Parrot3300GPS in my car. The parrot picks up battery, signal, contacts, etc. No problems. I wish my Wizard behaved that well.
Hi all, First of all I'd like to say this is the most informative forum I have been involved with . Up till now I haven't needed to post any questions.
Now....
I have an i-mate Jasjam herm200 (purchaced from Telstra). Until recently I was running WM5 which it was shipped with. Apart from the slow speed of the PPC (due in part to the Telstra Bloatware) it ran fine.
Since then I have tried many cooked ROMS inc. all Jasjamming's WM black editions, Most of Schaps WM6 and a few others, and I'm having problems with connecting my HS850 headset & my Altina GBT709 GPS receiver.
The Headset,
After pairing the headset I found that when making or receiving a call the person on the other end can only hear me for a few seconds but I don't hear anything, then when the headset Icon appears on the screen the call remains active but I can't hear the other person & they can't hear me.
I reflashed the Telstra Jasjam shipped WM5 rom: 1.31.305.2_106_6275_1.38.30.10_108_ship and the headset stilled didn't work , reflashed it with the same rom again (various WM6 roms in between) and it will work fine.
Can someone tell me if the problem is with the HS850 or the WM6 upgrade?
The GPS,
Since I have started flashing different roms I have never been able to connect the Altina 709 to TomTom Navigator 6, even when reflashed with the shipped rom. I cannot figure out if the problem is with the Bluetoth or a configuration issue with my PPC.
I can live without the GPS as I have a stand alone TT GO 500, but not being able to connect the bluetooth headset properly is driving me NUTS!!!
Please Please Please can someone help me figure this out.
Squirt
Any ideas people?
Don't know if this helps,but I found the Telstra customisations that you can install give me grief with my parrot car bluetooth system - they mess with the bluetooth stack in some way. I found the Telstra WM5 rom didn't play nicely either, which was my main incentive to upgrade to WM6. Are you using a clean install of the WM6 roms without tacking any of the telstra stuff on top?
I eventually found a .cab with just the proxy manager which is all I needed, and schap's roms work nicely for me regarding bluetooth, so I'm a bit wary of fiddling with it now.... I know the black series (and a few others that must have used the same build) had bluetooth issues for me.
Thanks for your reply, I'm currently running Black 3.0.1 which has been the closest I've got to getting the BT H/Free working.
With 3.0.1 I can hear the person on the other end through the phone speaker not the BT, BUT, They can hear me through the BT headset........strange.
I'm just waiting to catch up with a bloke from work with a different brand BT Headset to see if it makes a difference.
