Sorry if this has been addressed in another thread, but I haven't been able to find a good answer.
The Bluetooth stack for HTC Sense based android phones has some Bluetooth limitations that do not allow it to pair to Bluetooth game controllers, keyboards, and in some instances mobile (car) audio. I am not a developer so I only have a basic understanding how this works, but I've read that it is due to the SPP profile included being out of date.
A lot of Incredible owning Ford Sync and BMW drivers out there seem to be having issues syncing the Incredible, and I personally would like to be able to use a Wii controller or the Zeemote with my device. I bought a Zeemote for mobile gaming, but I gave it to my Droid X owning friend because it works great on stock Android, but refused to Sync with either my Incredible or another friend's Evo.
Does anyone (especially those people porting non Sense Android 2.2 to the Incredible) know if it would be possible to replace the HTC Bluetooth stack with a stock Android 2.2 Bluetooth stack? Ideally a user installable (with Root of course) APK.
I'd also like to know if this is possible/why it is not, even though I'm increasingly falling in love with CyanogenMod (especially as 6 seems to be nearing a stable release)
You have to download Bluetooth file transfer app from the market. Works perfectly.

Are you saying this will get our incredibles working as a wiimote?

Officially, Android does not support BT HID, which is needed for wiimote.
Cynaogenmod has added it via one of the devs who made it possible.
Their code is on github, if you want to attempt trying to port it to Sense based roms.
It's interesting that the Non HTC phones i've tried it on have worked fine if it is a problem with Android in general. I guess Motorolla added their own stack.
Try it on a samsung phone. Its not HTC only.

All we need to do is find an amazing chef like the guy over at Phandroid who makes the FrankenROM. I have 100% faith that guy could pull it off if he tried. He is freaking amazing!
Yes, can someone fix this. Full bluetooth functionality on 2.2 would be awesome!
Good to know about the Samsungs also having this issue. I've not had the opportunity to test a Samsung Android phone. Seems everyone I know has HTC or Motorolla.

link please? what issue is that?
Is anyone willing to cook up full bluetooth functionality in 2.2???
I would kill for this on a stock 2.2 rom w/root. I have a lot of SNES and PS1 games that suck with touchscreen controls.
I will donate money.
Anyone interested in adding bluetooth?
Please anyone smart enough to figure this out?!?

I think that I'm allowed to post this...but I recently downloaded a cracked beta 2.10 version of Swype HVGA I think? There were two choices HVGA and WVGA, not sure what the difference is?
It was working fine for a day, and then about an hour ago I was replying to a text and I couldn't even get it to type the word I was trying to type, or any word relatively close for that matter. It should be noted that when I turned my Evo sideways to landscape mode that I would recieve and error message saying that it was not the right size for my phone as well. After this happened, I tried clearing the data and uninstalling-reinstalling. When I would click on the text box after re-installation, swype would just keep force closing.
Any ideas of why this is happening?
hah you do know they are on swype 2.6..... right now right? either way, google is your friend. i also googled it and found.... nothing. i believe i am using hvga right now with no problems. if someone more knowledgable knows the difference, an answer would be much appreciated.
and also, maybe 2.1 was just locked. they do that from time to time (swype bastards)
I use the wvga version and haven't had any problems.

Actually they are on 2.10 right now...that's what I'm using. WVGA is the correct version for the EVO. I haven't had any issues and I've been running it for three days.

That link was good but the hvga wasn't the right one. Wvga is better and it doesn't force close.

It's not 2.1...it's 2.10.52.13753.t100, which is newer than 2.6 and includes voice to text. The numbering is a little confusing, as it should be 3.** if they had gone by the normal build numbering system.

No, they just released 2.10 beta.
Just a heads up
It makes no difference to me but there are some MODS around here that are really uptight about posting links to Swype. Just giving you guys a heads up so you don't get banned.
I get it! 2.10 not 2.1 or 2.1.0. Version numbers work different than decimals I guess. Could someone pm me (or email, [email protected]) a link to the 2.10 wvga? Thanks
Just a random thought that came to mind, but since Swype isn't technically ported specifically for the evo or it's screen size more specifically, wouldn't this greatly affect the accuracy of it?

The accuracy in 2.10 is amazing on my Evo. The betas that they release seem to be for various devices. WVGA work perfectly on the Evo.

Yeah I was previously on a much older version of Swype and since updating to this 2.10 now that it is working correctly I'm astounded how effortlessly and stress free it is for me to type. Easily

Hey just a heads up...the mods don't tolerate people posting links to warez on here, especially swype. I'm very suprised that this thread isn't shut down yet
what is the name of the stock white keyboard that comes on the mt4g on 2.2? i cannot stand the gray 2.3 keyboard it is horrible and slow. and where can i download it from.
id love to search, but i dont even know where to start since i dont know proper keywords for it.
Well, first I'd start with posting in the Mytouch 4G forums. They'd probably be more help then the G2/Dz forums.

I'm using this on CM7 RC1. A little slow, but I love the prediction on the hardware keyboard.
P.S. You want the High Resolution .apk for 2.2. I don't know why, but that is the one that worked for me, the other high-res version did not.
What keyboards do you guys use on your evo's. Custom/Market or even stock.
I like switching keyboards every now and again and i used at some point every one on the market. Any roms just for keyboards?? don't know if thats a big thing or not
Downloading now! Well this remove root? Which version of sense?
Oh wait, this thread is in the wrong section!
I use swype beta btw, it's awesome!
I use swype most the time but usually end up cursing it for having to hit back so often. I'm hoping blindtype will be released soon but if not there is supposed to be another one very similar to it that is being worked on.

SwiftKey scares me. It frequently knows what I'm going to type before I do.
I used to use swype until amazon had swiftkey as it's free app of the day... If I would have known how good it was when I first heard about it months ago i would have gladly paid for this app. it does get kinda scary how it can seemingly read your mind!

Hey guys Im confused on which rom to go to. I would like to know which rom is better, either ultimate droid or CM7 and why?
Thanks
Never used ultimate droid, but I would still recommend CM7. Its stable, fast, clean, lots of mods, themes, ect. Also, everything works. I've never had a problem on it, gps included.

Great thanks, I have a few questions about the cm7...how can i access wifi tether? Also can you explain what wimax is ive been trying to find out.
Thanks teh roxxorz you always help me out I appreciate it.
WImax is 4g. Tether is built in here: Menu>Settings>Wireless and Networks>Tethering no need for the wireless tether app. Although I think the Barnacle Tether app works.
CM7 has always been good to me too. Favorite ROM.

No problem man, and my pleasure to help.
Wifi tether, you can access the native hotspot from under wifi settings under hotspot and tethering; you can configure it as you wish, also can be added to your notification power widget.
WiMax = 4G, that's just the technical name for it, as its "wimax" technology. So if you hear wimax, they're talking about 4G. Also if you hear wimax rsa keys, those are your devices person 4G keys, which if lost, you've lost your 4G, permanently. Verizon's LTE, is 4G, but under a different LTE technology that is expanding.
Does that help?

As said, the wireless tether app WON'T work on CM7...so you'd have to use the native app. Barnacle tether does work, but again, same as the native.
Wireless tether will only work on sense roms, if you really needed to tether 4G speeds.
