JB Rom with ICS Bluetooth Stack? - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Are there any JB/4.2.2 Roms with the ICS Bluetooth Stack? Is this even possible? I've recently flashed CM 10.1 RC2 and love the project butter feel - it's amazing, but my bluetooth is so unreliable as to render it useless - says it's connected, try to make a call, and it won't connect to the car... and then sometimes will then come up 4 minutes into the conversation, etc.
I didn't have these troubles on earlier Android versions, and it's driving me to get a new phone sooner than I'd like.

Yup, that didn't work for me, 47 seconds from dial to car audio picking up connection, but then no audio and the phone Bluetooth had grayed itself out. Tried a fix permissions tenor but nothing. Maybe I have the wrong file (fingers crossed)?

Bluetooth Issue

Hey there,
I'm having a problem with the bluetooth on my desire...
I'm running stock android 2.2, unrooted...
The phone seems to work totally fine, but the bluetooth refuses to connect to my car kit... it has worked fine from day one and now all of a sudden it connects for a few seconds and then disconnects, and then when you go into the bluetooth settings to re-connect it, the menu just hangs... if you leave it for a few seconds the phone then reboots...

THANK YOU so much! That looks like it'll do the trick, now my only problem is how the eff do I install it? I've tried to copy it to the root of the mem card but it looks like the recovery thing on my phone is toast... even though it's got stock firmware on it...
Will it be easier to root the phone?
Ok, I am now Rooted and running LeeDrOiD 2.2f which apparently includes the Bluetooth fix as mentioned above...
But the problem persists...
It's definitely not the radio, because it pairs and works perfectly with another phone.
Any other ideas?

Which bluetooth fix is implemented in leedroid? I would rather recommend you a cyanogenmod 6.1 ROM, or a ROM that's built on CM. For me this fix implemented there has worked. FYI, CM are AOSP and without sense.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
The fix is "[MOD][21-July] Fix Bluetooth CarKit disconnection" and apparently fixes the issue...
Hmm, I kinda like the sense interface so would be sad to see it go...
My Desire also has a bluetooth problem in connecting with my car. Not the disconnections, but phonebook/callist access fails. Installing an AOSP Rom (or MIUI) fixes the problem, but I do like sense too.
I've concluded the sense-bluetooth stack is the culprit, however I don't have the knowledge to change the stack. Thus, I'll wait until somebody has fixed it or HTC updates the stack or until I'll buy a new phone
I am happy to say that the problem is gone when using Cyanogen Mod 6.1.0
It doesn't transfer the phone book, but the phone function works... so I'm happy...
Just have to now get used to android without sense... hmmm...

Hi, as i am having the same issue and dont really want to use a Cyanogen rom , before i do what vehicle did you get it to work with.
cheers
It was with a Pioneer DEH-P710BT head unit with built-in bluetooth...
The strange thing is that it worked absolutely perfectly for MONTHS and now all of a sudden is giving problems...
It is however, definitely the phone giving the problem because the head unit pairs perfectly with any other phone, and when using the cyanogen mod rom, the desire works perfectly with it.

[Q] Bluetooth keep crashing

I am using NexusMod ICS Zero - [4-19-12] Modified for T989 - 2nd Release
I try to flash with SuperWipe, without superwipe, Darkside Superwipe, M&S Kernel clenser, with format everything, with clear everything.
Don't know what else I should try.
how come when I come back to my restore (which is easydoes ICS ROM) the bluetooth works fine (I have to re-pair in my car after restore, because I clear the bluetooth system in my car evertime I pair the new rom)?
For me bluetooth didn't work for any of the new UCLD2 ROMS.
The bluetooth worked on the earlier ICS leaks.
Here is the LogCat for the crash
LogCat Link
Thanks,
here is the logcat for the fresh install and fresh test with the car bluetooth.
Can someone tell me what direction I should look at?
just flash your stock rom/ or just radio
there is no ICS Stock Rom available for flashing.
and I did flash the LB7 radio
I tried Gingerbread stock works fine....
then install NexusMod and same issue.
UCLD2 broke bluetooth for me also (Skyrocket). Works fine on the first ICS leak though (UCLC something).
It pairs to my JVC car stereo.
But buzzes/crashes when trying to stream.
Bluetooth will turn on/off over and over.
I still not able to find any fix or way around.
Please update this thread if you find one.

What is the version of your cmw?
I am on 5.0.2.7
Not cmw touch. Dunno maybe its working with cmw touch only.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989
I read it on skyrocket forum the Dev said on nexusmod thread that you have to be on cmw touch.
I update my cmw to touch and then reinstall the ROM and that didn't help either.
That's weird. Have no clue why Bluetooth is not working...
Anyways back to the first leak for now...

As I stated in the NexusMOD thread, bluetooth integration to my car is broken as well. Haven't tried v3.3 yet nor have I tried the make nandroid -restore from nandroid trick mentioned in the T989 NexusMOD thread... Am still hopeful that a new leak will come out with a different BT stack which fixes this

I noticed "bluetooth" kept showing up on my CTS stereo like it was connecting. Under bluetooth click menu button and set visible timeout (mine was set to 2 minutes). I set mine to unlimited, since then it stopped showing up on my stereo.

Thanks for the feedback.
I re-install the ROM with 3.8 update and tried your method but that still not stop crashing the BT and transferred the call to the handset and disconnect from the car BT.
I guess I have to wait for the new leak with the hope that it will not have this issue.

[WIP][FIX][Bluefix - Temporary fix for cm10.1 bluetooh issues][2013-05-07]

Hey guys,
I got tired of the Bluetooth headset issue stopping me from using cm10.1 as my daily driver on long car rides. So here is a temporary fix I made by reverting these two commits and rebuilding the CM kernel.
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/lge-...e1dd464b1e5aba74f7293c5e18f#drivers/bluetooth
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/lge-...49e0a49c9d90f2bafbf08822863#drivers/bluetooth
The official bug report can be found here, https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-518. If you are affected by this please head over and vote for it.
This is a temporary fix until CM patches the bug. I haven't had the time to really test the impacts of the reverting but it does cause a wake lock when BT is on. When I find time I'm going to look into fixing the removed code instead of simply removing it. Any other dev is welcome to pitch in. Current work on this project can be found here, https://github.com/nexwave-mat/lge-kernel-iproj/tree/cm-10.1-bluefix.
Usual policies apply. This is a WIP and I do not take any responsibility for problems resulting from its use.

Tested with version cm10.1-20130503-NIGHTLY-p930 of cyanogenmod. Kernel built on 2013/05/04 @10:57pm with repo sync about 30min prior to that.
@lyfkevin feel free to include this in your WIND kernel if you see fit.
Warning:
There was an official patch merged into CM. I would strongly suggest to discontinue use of this. More details, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2140790&page=27#269.
Just saw this, https://github.com/cyanogenmod/andr...mmit/ef61f8ebbf1119a29617dddbcf0a7753bf29bf2b. I will test and report back here if it is a fix or not for our devices problems.
the new kernel code have fixed this problem

With or without Wind, and what version?

For those flashing WIND kernel along with this fix, make sure you flash the fix after flashing WIND and not the other way around because, correct me if im wrong, flashing WIND over the fix will overwrite the BT commits.

Full stock would imply without Wind. For that matter, and sorry if I wasn't clear, the fix is a custom build kernel. It replaces Wind or any other kernel currently on the device. The only changes between my "fix" kernel and stock are the two reverted commits in the OP.
If time permits I will look into it more and come up with a better solution. Although I read in an other post that @rmcc might be looking into this issue shortly. Although nothing is for sure...
I dun hv BT headset to test.
How does Bluetooth in wind 2.0rc0 work? Does it work well during turn on?
My friend dczz gave me another patch which fixed BT wakelock (battery drain) when BT switch off.

Yes it works well. I just turn off BT when done using and reset phone to stop battery drain. Text messaging over BT does not work but other than that it stays on and connected.

Official CM patch
It seams there was a patch for our Bluetooth issue merge into the CM kernel a short while ago, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2140790&page=27#269.
@lyfkevin correct me if I'm wrong but I thing it would be better to revert your current Bluetooth fixes and merge CM's patch for version 2.0 of your WIND kernel. In theory it should stop crashes and allow deep sleep with BT on. Now we just need to test it. Let me know if and when you will have a new build up and I will gladly test it out.

I just added a comment to the CYAN-518 that might explain some of the issues, or perhaps an additional bluetooth issue in cyanogen.
Just a quick note, I'm running the nightly 5/11 (day after the RC2 release). I'm able to connect to my Bluetooth portable speaker no problem and also I have a Sensordrone bluetooth device (multiple environment meters in one) and no issues connecting with that either.
...Previously I had the 5/6 nightly and it didn't even "see" any bluetooth devices.

[Q] Bluetooth stack or driver issue?

So I've tried every custom ROM for my E973 and I've noticed something odd. The ROMs built using the team LGOG tree seem to have an issue initializing bluetooth. It takes about 6-7 sec for bluetooth to come on, and android beam file transfer doesn't work. On the other hand, with Paulicat's AOKP and dvhexer's CM 10.1, bluetooth initializes within a second or two and android beam works fine. Is this down to drivers or some other difference in the bluetooth implementation? Would it be possible to create a flashable zip to apply to the ROMs with slow bluetooth to make it faster/more stable?

man, Still haven't had a response.
For what it's worth, I'm in the same boat as you. AOKP and AOSP will work everytime. Everything else won't work as well as stock. I got nothing to report that fixes bluetooth. If you find out why, let me know.
I use bluetooth a lot.

Bluetooth issue

I was the kind of guy who want to try some of the new version for this phone...
One issue I saw on each version except the original from bell is ... the bluetooth is not always working propely... not sure if @tdm can see the difference between v20f and cm bluetooth but since i'm back with this one i don't have to fight to have it connected to my car radio!
Anyone else having issue like mine??

Even the stock Gingerbread firmware wouldn't work with bluetooth keyboards (the stock ICS just cops out and has a message pop up that says that the phone is not compatible with bluetooth keyboards!). I found that only Cyanogenmod 9 RC1 and RC2, and Cyanogenmod 10.1.x stable builds work with bluetooth keyboards. Try Cyanogenmod 10.1.3 and see if that fixes the bluetooth problem.

I have also experienced no bluetooth issues with Mokee 02072014 release version. Very reliable, bluetooth works like stock, no BSODs or reboot problems, and best of all its Kit kat.

I should try that version.
HoNo!'s almost-stock V20F and Sphinx 4.1 are the ones I found to have a reliable BT connection to FORD Sync, automatic connection. Everything else I tried I have to manually connect it and sometimes I have to do it 3-4 times to get connected with the exception of Carbon ROM which is pretty much 1 shot and it would be connected. I wouldn't even care for BT if it is not for the cellphone use bylaw in our town.
