XDA 2S BLuetooth Reception

Hi All,
Long time viewer, first time poster.
Firstly would like to thank many of you for posting awsome information and providing a great deal of help to people like myself who rely on these places to get the infor required to really enjoy our PDA/Phones
Ok now to the problem
I have an XDA 2S with the latest Rom, i use it for business because of the WiFi and its ability to browse websites and support Putty
However since getting it i have had nothing but problems with using Bluetooth on it , i now have 6 different Bluetooth Brands ranging from Nokia, Ericsson, Blueant and Jabra and to date none have provided me with quality Bluetooth voice...... Well nothing like my Nokia or NEC mobile phones.
The issue i have is that voice is constantly breaking up, even when the phone is like 30cm away from the Bluetooth, i have tried everything but one thing!
And this is where i need to probe the wisdom of some of you
1. Is there a way to upgrade the Bluetooth Drivers on the phone? IF there is can some one direct me to either downloads, Litriture for reading or to any websites that talk about it.
2. Is there a way to upgrade the Bluetooth Firmware from version 1.1 to 1.2? The guy i was speaking with from O2 said that he has heard/seen people do it in some cases was successful and in other cases destroyed the phone to the point where a re-load had to be carried out.
Any infromation on this problem that others can share with me would be greatly appreciated, if anyone else is having this same problem please do share your experience with me and if any work arounds let me know
Mobile Spec's:
O2 XDA 2S
Firmware 1.40
Radio version 1.12
Bluetooth Headset = Nokia HS-26W
If i lack any information please let me know.
Thank you in advance
Cheers,
David.

Bluetooth carkitt no longer working after upgrade to WM6

A few days ago I upgraded my HTC P3300 to the official WM6 rom.
All works fine except calling using my bluetooth carkitt.
The carkitt I have is the factory carkitt in a Peugeot 307SW. I've read somewhere this carkit is made by Parrot and can also be found in the Peugeot 207, Citroen C4 end some Seat models. Googling showed averyone with those carkitt's has the same problem sinde the upgrade to WM6. It all worked fine in WM5 by the way. I've also tested with several non official WM6 roms, but it's still not working.
Connection and pairing the phone is not the problem. I do see the contact list in my car display and I can even see the battery status. The problem is when I dail. My speakers mute my radio/cd sound, but I don't hear the phone through them. It's just silent. I can't hear the person answering the phone and I don't hear the dial tone. The strange thing it sometimes works. I have the impression it starts to work after I strated tomtom, but I'm not sure about it. What never works is when people call me. The phone rings, but when I answer I can't hear the person on the other side.
Is there any way to fix this? It looks like bluetooth 2.0 isn't 100% compatible with bluetooth 1.1 or it's a bug in WM6. There is no upgraded firmware for my carkitt available and like saif before, a lot of other car owners have the same problem.
Please help.

Same problem here... when upgrade to WM6 official the sound in the car is gone when dailing. Phone is connected but I'am unable to hear anything... everything goes into mute...
I'm stuck with the very same problem. I'll try JetWare and change some configs, but I fear it will not work.
If I have any news I'll post them.
Regards
P.D My car is a Citroen C4, and original Citroen bluetooth I think is a Parrot 3000 or 3100
I have the same problem.
Car kit BT Peugeot 207 and HTC 3300 with cooked room wm6.
I've installed jetware extension. I can hear sound in the first call but when I hang up the next call, the same problem .. no soud.

Has anyone found a solution for this? I have found deactivating the bluetooth and reactivating on the call works.
I would hope someone finds a solution. What would be the downside of going back to WM5?? I cannot remember why I upgraded now.....
I finally downgraded to WM5, but I'm interested in knowing if new WM6.1 ROMs have corrected the problem. We have both Blak&Blue and Vanilla versions based on WM 6.1
I've not upgraded to WM6.1 because I'm tired of problems. If someone try to install it, please report
Regards

Mine is an HTC P3300 locked to local Movistar provider. To downgrade, you must find a WM5 ROM, that's all. I found ART_HTCESN_1.14.412.1_026790_ESN_Ship.exe but it is Spanish, so probably it doesn't interest you.
Downgrade procedure was exactly the same as upgrade.
Would you be so kind to test some WM 6.1 releases with the car's bluetooth before downgrading to WM5?. It could work and I assume that in any case you are going to reinstall everything, so a kick install should be not much of a problem.

Yeah i would be happy to.
If someone can point me in the direction of what I have to do.
I have a UK o2 XDA, so I assume I would need to unlock it first?

Nice!
But I find a problem, isn't your O2-XDA also known as Wallaby? I mean, if I'm right you are posting in the wrong forum or at least you should be advised not to install another PDA ROM on yours becouse you risk to brick it. We are posting at Artemis forum. Of course, Bluetooth problem seems not related to PDAs but WM6
On this forum there is info about how to unlock your PDA. Unfortunately I dont find any ROM for your device.

Same Problem
hi all,
207 FACTORY KIT / M650
I have the same problem, only the original ROM under WM5 work properly...
I Tried many bluetooth soft on several tips and WM6 release...
AJE , 1.5 / 6 /8 / 9 / 2.0 beta........
Now i am under B&B 5 (WM6.1) and the problem persist
I note that if i desactivate bluetooth stereo and fix sample rate to 44Khz, it looks to work a little better than before.
If i wait between 2 phone call (out), it works much.
If i answer to a phone call with the remote control it never works.
If i answer with green touch on the phone it work ALL the time.
Are we condamned to stay under WM5 !??
WM5 -> bluetooth but no CRM (does'n't want to work)
WM6 -> No bluetooth but CRM...
I choose to work on this but any result, since more than eight month...
HEEEEEEEEEEELLLP US AND SHAME ON PA**OT
PS: HTC and parrot pass a deal to increase compatibility of their product...
Since this time does anybody tel to parrot on this problem ?
Does newer HTC product originaly under WM6 work fine one factory kit (peugeot/citröen 207/C3...) because if no, i think parrot sucks ! they update firmware on all their product, but for product sells to peugeot or citroen -> NOTHING
Thx for the info. It's a pity that the problem persist on WM6.1
We are hooked to WM5 and to my eyes, the Artemis and PocketPCs look older than ever.
At the end, I think it is a Microsoft problem. PSA Bluetooth CarKit works flawlessly with WM5 so Microsoft changed something to the Bluetooth stack on WM6. Shame on them.
I'll wait to WM7, but I don't have too much expectations.
Regards
Some hotfixes are available from HTC regarding bluetooh, only not for the Hermes. damm.
Anyone tried one of these already? Currently still not able to updrade to WM6.1

Skype 2.5 problem - one way audio

I have installed Skype 2.5 for WM on original Artemis O2 XDA.
Skype connects wia wifi, but there is only one way audio. My corespondent can excellent hear me, but I can't hear him, either nothing at all, or only very fragmented audio.
Tested with few different corespondents, and via few wifi hotspots, so problem must be in my Aremis Skype settings.
Fring works ok (audio both ways), so my Artemis hardware seems to be ok.
Anyone having similar problem ? Any hint ? Please help.
Same Problem
I have EXACTLY the same problem as you do. Although i have a different rom version then the original one that comes with O2 xda. I also have skype 2.5, and people can hear me perfectly , but i cant listen to people!
Regards

> Let me know if you find the answer to this problem
Not yet. And I don't know if this is a hardware or software problem.
Do you think upgrade to WM 6.1 would help ?
artemis and skype
Has anyone resolved how to make work skype on artemis. I can't even pass a echo test? Help please!
Is anyone using Skype 2.5 for Mobile on Artemis (original or upgraded) ?
If YES, than this is a software problem, and perhaps can be resolved with software upgrade.
If NO, than this is a hardware problem, and cannot be resolved.
ANYONE, please info.
Just upgraded Skype to v3.0.0.256 , and still no receiving audio.
Again, is ANYONE using Skype Mobile on Artemis (original or upgraded) ?
ANYONE, PLEASE ?

DUN on Tilt 2 bluetooth

I've been wracking my brain trying to figure this out. I'm trying to establish an internet connection through my tilt 2 from my other pda. When I pair I see the dial up networking option. When I connect, it seems to connect but it won't establish an internet connection and gets dropped.
I've used this method to connect to my old Nokia E62 so I know my pda is able to make these types of connections. I was wondering if it's there's a work around for allowing this. I'm using the Energy Rom Phoenix2 build 21876.
I've searched hi and low but doesn't seem anyone else has had this problem.
Anyone have any ideas on this?
If the other PDA has wifi then use the WIFI sharing..
I'll have to go that route. I was just hoping to save on battery consumption
Same problem for me on the Tilt 2 on e2ROM. My old Tilt with WM6.1 works with BT DUN but not WM6.5 I guess. But BT PAN does work great on e2ROM just not DUN.

It's not a wm6.5 issuse because I flashed a 6.1 ROM and I still had the same problem. I'm thinking it's a problem with the BT stack they're using.

I gave up for now. I have finals to study for. Maybe I'll try again in a few weeks. If you get it then post it for everyone. Thank you.
Has anyone ever found a solution to this?
I'm trying to the same thing with a Trimble Survey Controller and my Tilt2. The survey specific software is written to only use a DUN for internet access in order to acquire NTRIP corrections.
What really sucks is that I can use Wifi to give the PDA Internet access as confirmed with PIE. But the survey software will not use the Wifi
if your wanting to do it over bluetooth set the dial as *#99# i belive to make the other pda do gprs and send the data back via bluetooth
