Recommend a build with BT headphone support?

Hi Folks
New here, been trying to find a good build for my new TP.
The last one I tried was the XANDROID 2.1 AOSP build that is popular right now.
I had a couple of 2.1 builds before that. All builds say BT works...but no luck.
I'm trying to find a build that the AD2P BT headphones work ok. I'm running the Plantronics 590a headset. All of the builds I installed so far, the sound playback to BT is super choppy.
I've tried searching the forum for AD2P and BT headphones...but I haven't had any luck on a confirmed build...minus an old sense build by KlinuX that I'm having trouble getting to work...
Anyone know of a build with BT headphone support working ok? Or any fix I can install for the BT stack?
Thanks!

Bt isint exactly in a perfect state, i would not advice to use it for a headset, but hey some else might disagree with me.
and i cannot stress this enough, next time please use the search function on the forums.

man am so glad to see youall bringing up this topic about bluetooth i recently tried one of the android products i have the motorolla s9 bluetooth headset and when i pair my device to the phone yes it was choppy so i was looking all around to see if there was a fix damn oh well i guess we gotta wait some longer for the other builts to come out but i find there moveing slow on the production of them even they havnt gotten the camera to work yet what is takeing them so longgg

Seriously guys? You're really going to whine and complain about how it's taking them so long?
Jump into the code and help! If you can't, then you are not allowed to complain .
They're working on it, and are well aware of the issue. The devs are doing this in their free time, no body is getting paid to do this work...
With that said for the most part all of the builds have the same functionality. There may be little differences here and there, but it's not like one build camera works or one build BT works perfectly. So please continue to wait patiently, donate to some devs, and learn how to write device driver code

whats up

[Q] The TyTN II on Android...

First of all, I'd like to thank all the super-talented people on this board that have persevered and have managed to create and tweak these Android ports for our devices. You peeps truly are amazing! Never would I have imagined running Android on my nearly-ancient TyTN II, but now I can.
Now that the praise is out of the way...
Are there any (or are there any coming soon) Android ports that would allow for full functionality on my TyTN II and actually be stable? For example, USB connectivity doesn't appear to work. As soon as I connect it to my PC, it starts and stops continuously. The Bluetooth functionality seems to be present, but whenever I attempt to connect a headset to the device, it only recognizes it for music playing, not for calls or as a hands-free device. In addition, it doesn't matter whether I overclock or not, I'm still hounded by constant application crashes and it seems to get worse the longer the device is on. These things (at the least) are constants no matter which port I install.
Any ideas or suggestions?
In the end, I'm still very thankful for all the talent here at XDA and am amazed at all you've accomplished.
Thanx again.

I have had my old Tytn2 running Android fast and stable for weeks now - details in my sig. Edit the nbh for Kaiser and your panel then you just need to do two extra things:
1. Run the wifi fix
2. Get hold of an app called SD Dual Mount for USB mass storage.
Not sure about BT. I don't use it on mine.
Like you I am in total awe of these guys getting Android working so well on our ancient devices.

u can run it but its not going to be as stable as a native android phone i dont think...

Eventually it will be.

So, nothing right now to stabilize and utilize the full functionality of a BlueTooth headset? Thanx again.

Nope, they are the same as linux kernels just ported to our phones. .25 is almost two years old lol. It is stable though as it is more developed for our kaiser.

What will i miss on using the .25 ? and what will i gain?
I've seen things like "2.6.25 users get the wifi patch here"
So we need a patch for wifi ?

yup there's a patch 4 wifi... but yaffs arent implemented over .25 right? couldnt that be intetesting????
Sent from my Full Android on Vogue using XDA App

Personally I'd go with .32 at this point. .25 isn't any more stable on my phone as far as crashes and lockups are concerned. And data loss issues with .32 seem to be mostly ironed out (I would still keep a /data backup in case tho).
Plus the performance increase from .25 to .32 is well worth it.

32 is probably better at this point. For quite a while, 2.6.25 would survive crashes better, but I think they're pretty much equal now in that regard. The 25 branch doesn't get attention of developers anymore.

Not to mention the .25 kernel is right about 2 years old now.

Ok, i'll agree with you. Yet... i rather have a .25 working good, than a .32 faulty.

kernel update
sorry for dummies question, but...
I have tytn ii as all of you, and have same bug with all 3 versions of Android setuped on it.
The microphone not working at least, so when i call somebody, i hear him, but he isn't hear me.
All other, include wifi, internet working good.
I found that it's well-known bug, and kernel version change could help.
But how to change it?
All versions i downloaded, based on 2.6.25, it's 2.6.25-01106-g50cf5f2-dirty on my device.
I found zImage file 2.6.32 but when i change zImage in andboot and restart - it's don't help.
i found NBH file for tytn ii ( kaisimg-panel2-240x320-2.6.32-tilt-froyo-09-09-10_21.nbh) , but how to install it?
Pls help!

Try one of these:
http://androidhtc.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=androidhtc/kernel-release.git;a=tree
If ur having problems look for a guy named l1qu1d, look at his signature it says something bout "atools" click on it and follow the guide....

There will be a formal list when it drops. I will make a thorough post of what's changed when the time is right.
The big ones are RIL & BT. Audio routing won't make FRX07, so BT audio won't work, but pairing with BT devices & transferring data should.

Great , thanks!
Sent from my MSM using XDA App

seems silly to me to evenrelease fr0x7 without the BT and the audo routing fixes already in place at least for the rhodium users., i understand that the BT and audio routing fixes are mostly RHOD specific so why not make 2 version's of FR0x7? Those are the changes that most ppl weant they want there BT and loud speakerphone. Just curious as to why it would even be released without those things since the fixes are out, if it means having to wait to release fr0x7 than wait IMO. i donno just my 2 cents

Audio routing isn't stable,isn't for all the devices and it's still being developed
So it's a time waste adding it now,then frx08 will have it..

Couldn't have said it better myself. Audio routing will not be implemented until it's stable.

Kernel issue, not a build issue from what I can tell.
Also, from what I've gleaned - the cam works, but only in low light. See
[UPDATED 04/29][DEV - Camera ( camcorder improvement ) ] Camera tests for more information.

Bluetooth data would be great. I have an asus transformer which will not connect to an adhoc network, so WiFi tethering is out. The only solution I can find for tethering a honeycomb tablet is through pdanet tablet, which requires android on both devices and uses bluetooth. Thanks for all the hard work.

Is there a wpa supplicant hack for the transformer? My A500 tablet has the same issue stock, but with mod or custom ROM wifi tethering to my rhodium works perfect on ad-hoc. Anyway, maybe worth looking into.

Yes there is. I'm on an adhoc posting this from my TF right now. check the TF section for the xoom supplicant file or just flash prime 1.5 as this fix is already implimented in that rom

Will it have the new MMS fixes? That's the biggest thing missing for me. People love to send pictures and I always have to boot WiMo and ask them to resend it.

Yes, it will work for all carriers assuming you set your APN. Still hashing out the best way to do this, might just have to leave it up to the end-users to configure.

I flashed prime on my TF last week. Works great and has the WPA supplicant fix already built in.
I can tether to my TP2 in winmo or whatever! Works GREAT.
Also, waiting for FRX07. Great work on FRX06!

@arrrghhh, tnx for your reaction, but im not an android expert, is there a way to implement the fixes mentioned there in frx07??

Not easily, there's many, many changes. The easiest way would be to pull from the XDAndroid repo (all of our code is available...) and build your own system image.
07 will be out soon. In the final stages of testing.

[TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0C 2.3.7 Build

Hey folks,
This is a completely new build, with all the new changes baked in. We wanted to do a semi-official test release to collect bugs and hopefully do a formal official release with everything settled. The main pain point is the CSV files (see pre-install prep).
So a brief overview:
New acoustic routing code baked in. Should fix most if not all audio routing problems, and will provide more debugging if stuff does go wrong. Also allows for more granular tweaking, see the CSV files.
GPS fixes for GB - GPS not only works in GB now, but it doesn't kill sleep! I was able to use GPS, get a solid lock, and put the device to sleep no problem.
BT should work & well with the new acoustic code. Post results.
RHOD users now have a choice of kernels. .35+ all have the new acoustic - so .35, .39, 3.0 and 3.1 are all fair game now... This is bundled with .27!!
Keep in mind, autobuild .27 kernels will produce no audio in this build... Obviously the bundled kernel will work, and the absolute newest .27 autobuild kernel does work now - Feb.27 2012 or newer.
rootfs tweaks - first, it will detect which kernel you're on (.27 or .35+) and automatically apply the correct firmware. Second, is it will always copy/extract the modules... failures there were getting annoying, and this is surefire if brute-force...
Few Easter egg apk's...
Probably a lot I'm forgetting, this might change
Pre-Install Prep REQUIRED!!!​
This step is crucial, and I forgot all about it! You must copy all of the *.CSV file from your WinMo ROM - these are in the \Windows\ directory. There's a very easy way to do this. It involves the Total Commander app for WinMo (Direct Link for the perpetually lazy...) (included in EnergyROM and others probably).
Now you're in Total Commander looking at your \Windows\ directory. Whew... lots of files. Fear not! Hit the "CTRL" button, then the green "Plus" button. This opens the Select/Unselect files dialog. Put in *.csv, press "select" and voila. All CSV files are selected. Now - File -> Copy/Move -> I want you to copy these (should be 10) files to the ROOT of your SD card. No folders!!! This is hardset right now, until we get it all implemented into the build properly. Thanks!
Install​
Assuming you've done the pre-install prep; this is installed just like the other XDAndroid builds - grab your startup.txt (don't forget rel_path= if you don't have it at the root of the SD!), ts-calibration and boot!
Download

Caveats:​
Audio stutters every 10sec. The only fix I've heard is using a kernel from G3rmo (unfortunately it is old), or
Code:
su
kill -9 28
Which kills the [battery] process. I'm sure this will have negative effects on the battery meter/battery life...
SD Card not working...? "Waiting for SD Card" appearing on boot...? Try putting this command in your startup.txt
Code:
msmsdcc_1bit msmsdcc_fmax=14000000 msmsdcc_nopwrsave
See gummbah30's post reminding us of these commands.
SD Card has partitions? (If you used a non-XDAndroid build the answer is YES) Then you need to add "no_partitions" to your startup.txt. Between the quotes on the set cmdline line. Do not put it on its own line, it goes in between the quotes! Make sure there is one space between each item.
BT might still be flaky
The CSV files from my BLAC100 are attached for the lazy. I'd like to gather CSV's from each RHOD, I'm curious if any ROM devs have changed them out either... This could get interesting. If you folks don't mind, post up your CSV's, point out differences with mine, etc... We're trying to figure out how to unify these, if possible! Thanks!
Keyboard tiny/unusable? Either change the IME (long press on the input box) Get rid of it! I've heard "Hackers Keyboard" is a good alternative - many options. There's also "Better Keyboard", Swype, etc... Side load the APK using AndroidApps, adb install, etc.
Please post back any issues, enjoy!

Interesting, does any sound work...? Does it play thru the earpiece instead of the rear speaker? What about previewing ringtones? Next time you pull a logcat, make sure to use -v time. Using GetLogs makes it much easier .
Thanks for testing btw. The more the merrier! If we're going to make this change global, we want to make sure no devices are left in the dust. So it's up to you guys to test and ensure that it works properly! If it doesn't, we'll try to fix it.
If anyone feels like hopping on #xdandroid on freenode while testing, that would be great! Thanks again!

i attached the file i found on sd card after pulling the logs with getlogs. i hope this is the file you wanted.
i just added following commands to my startup, because i cant boot without them:
msmsdcc_1bit msmsdcc_fmax=14000000 msmsdcc_nopwrsave

Those commands are necessary if you have a SD card that doesn't play nicely. If you need 'em, put 'em in.

Good deal! Some headsets seem to work better than others - we'll have to work on that once everything has settled. Glad everything else is working well!
As for there only being 5 CSV's, that might be true for Blackstone. What WinMo ROM are you on...? Perhaps some other users can verify. On my RHOD running EnergyROM there's definitely 10 CSV files in \Windows\. I might ask everyone post theirs so we can detect any differences - so if anyone would like to post all the CSV's they have in a zip file here that would be great!

I'm a former HD owner and today i have a HD mini Photon , my current Android ROM is working very well .
The only real problem for me is the audio routing . Could you give me some help to test this in Photon? I can try to change my ROM in order to apply your fix. Don't worry if i don't have success doing that , i know devices are not the same and i don't disturb you .
Because this is HD forum if you want you can PM me.

If you're on a native Android device and you're having audio routing problems I would talk to the developer of the ROM. If you re-read the first post, I detail why we have audio routing problems to day, and why this test build fixes those issues.
Your issue is completely different and entirely unique compared to our woes. Sorry.

Thank's arrrghhh , Photon is a WM 6.5 device (maybe the last HTC WM device) and the issue is the same I had in my blackstone for two years. (BT pairing but not audio ) it was my bigger problem there and with photon .... having the same problem..
I'm reading some times the blackstone thread looking for some light about this issue and today i found your thread. Trust me , the issue is the same and the way to resolve it must be similar.
I had success booting android HD blackstone roms in photon (more or less) and i will try to test your build. at the moment the booting animation start well but never end.
I'm changing some modules to obtain a bootable build but i don't know which libs or kernel modules are you changing here.

I had success booting android HD blackstone roms in photon (more or less) and i will try to test your build. at the moment the booting animation start well but never end.
I'm changing some modules to obtain a bootable build but i don't know which libs or kernel modules are you changing here.
Thank's

Oh I see.
Others have this same problem...? I'm wondering if it's your headset, or the port. Do you know how audio routing works on the port for the Mini? Is it a kernel-only affair, or does userland effect it...?

Is a general problem , I don't know if the problem is only in the kernel but i can give you some issues we have with the sound:
- the stereo wired headset sound only works if we use headset with micro , if we use headset without micro the sound is mono.
- The fm radio sound only works if we start de FM radio in WM before run haret , in other case we have only 5 seconds sound in Android FM radio, after 5 seconds the sound stops suddenly.
- the loudspeaker and sound in general in incoming calls is very low.
- The Bluetooth headset and the bluetooth hand free paired without problems but not redirect the sound.
I think the problem is not so different you want fix here in blackstone.

The fixes here apply to MSM7k devices. I'm not sure what you would need to port it to other devices... pretty sure our kernel would not work on your phone. That's going to be the hurdle. I would encourage you to analyze the userland stuff tho - that certainly might be useful to you.

Don't misconstrue, I haven't done any of the actual development on this acoustic code .
See Jerome's tree if you want to see where this all started. A few others have cloned his tree and made some modifications. We're still working out the kinks. Perhaps it can help your port as well...
Like I said earlier, I am betting the userland stuff will work for you folks without a ton of changes (don't know for sure!). The kernel stuff for this new acoustic will need to be ported - our kernel will not work on your device.

TMO Variant AOSP Alpha Builds

I won't post the link here because I don't have permission to do so, but a couple of the developers from Cyanogenmod have been working on Alpha builds, and a new one (4.4.4) was released last night sometime. The following link is to the dev's G+ page so go ahead and find the link from there, not too hard.
https://plus.google.com/+TomMarshall/posts
Also, APN's are working along with LTE speeds, haven't tested out phone calls yet due to no vibration/sound anywhere in the device, so it's not really "usable" at this point. The newest SlimROM Gapps work just fine by the way.
Hopefully we can keep this thread as a central point for discussion since now there are multiple spread throughout the General and Q&A forums.

Are you sure there is no sound period? I thought there was sound through the earpiece just not the external speakers.

Well, even if there is, that doesn't do any good for the casual user flashing this ROM, they won't hear/feel a phone call/message if the phone is in their pocket. Even if everything besides sound/vibration is working, I still like my phone to act like a phone, you know?

I'm on the 09/07 build and I have sound through the earpiece, calls seem to work fine.
Edit: Headset sound works as well.

That's all well and good, but I have to have a phone that notifies me of a call/text while it's sitting on my desk or in my pocket. I fully appreciate the fact this is an Alpha build and I'm not complaining in the least bit, I just can't wait until 5.0 hits the G3...or at least 4.4.4 stable with a good 5.0 theme.

If anyone is wondering this ROM is actually based off Slim as opposed to CM. It has Slims Recents, Quicktiles, Floating Window, Shake Events etc, which are all working.

This is what I don't get, given the fact that this is a PHONE, I would assume that the first thing to get working correctly would be any and everything relating to calls/texts.

Uh...well, everything gets tested and built from the ground up. So some things come along faster than others.

I know, my whole gripe with test/alpha build is that getting the phone part of the device isn't necessarily a priority upon releasing something.

The "phone" part of the build does work correctly. The audio not working is a separate matter that has nothing to do with the "phone" part of the rom.
While audible notifications are most certainly a requirement for a daily driver, the reality is that these are alpha builds that are being worked on by a select few people. Everything will get worked out, it's just a matter of time. Been here in this very place several times with phones before the G3, unless you're in the know how, you just gotta play the waiting game

Yea i know, been thinking about trying to learn how to go about compiling a CM build from scratch, or port from something similar, but that's a lot of time and effort.

I'm not sure why you have a gripe at all? It's a very stable alpha build that is actively being worked on and provided to you for free! If you don't like the pace of development why don't you contribute? I understand that you opened this thread to discuss AOSP builds but contrary to your assertion that you are "not complaining" you've posted some inaccuracies about the 1st and only AOSP ROM and told us over and over how you need your phone to be a phone.
We get it. Go back to the LG ROMs until this one suits your needs.

I'm simply responding to people here, I pointed out what works and what doesn't work with the TWO working Alpha builds. There is a third in the works by AICP but has yet to be released. My only gripe really is for a build to be released, although a test build, without the main functionality of the device working properly...that's it.
I am on an LG ROM at the moment.
The purpose of this thread is to discuss the builds as they come out and to have a central location for all prominent links.

The thing is a lot of those things aren't phone specific so if they work on other builds they should work here.

For anyone who has tried this, does it get rid of the artificial sharpness?

It looks fine, I mean I don't notice any over sharpening, but then again I don't have my face less than a few inches away from my eyes. Either way, the animation scale is set to .5 so it looks faster than it really is. Set the scales back to 1.0 and everything is really fluid with NO skipping/stuttering/whatever you want to call it.
Lack of vibration and sound across the board is really the only issue at this point. For day to day use, I mean.
Still waiting on the AICP build as that will probably incorporate the missing necessities that the other two builds are lacking.

Correct you don't get it. The source code for the ROM is already done, it already has their features. What they are doing is adding the device source and trying to get the drivers working. Its not like they think well lets go add 1% battery, its already in the source code. What they are working on is the device side not the feature side.

I'm not sure why you continue to mislead based solely on your preference. I'm on the build right now, it is easier to state what doesn't work because this build is very close to beta:
1.2 09/07 build - Not working:
External Speaker (...On the back, Headset audio and earpiece audio are working fine.)
Vibration
Cameras & rear LED
External SD Card
Bluetooth
I haven't come across anything else that isn't working. Wifi, Mobile Data, GPS, incoming/outgoing calls have worked without a hitch. Also this is AOSP so there is zero of the text sharpening that is present in the LG ROMs. I've changed the governor to interactive by default it's set to performance and the cpu does not scale which will contribute to heat reports that initially popped up.
