XDA Keyboard with XDAII - General Accessories

Hi Guys,o
Does anyone know if the XDA folding keyboard works with a XDAII?
Cheers - James

if its the expansys one they told me it does, ive got one but i cant get it to work, any ideas.. peter

Make sure you have beams unchecked in settings/connections/beams.

Mine works!
You just need to check that you turn "Receive all incoming beams"under Settings/Connections is turned off.

i cant get it to work all beams are turned off!!!!!!!!! it looks good though!!

Are you loading a keyboard driver? I use the keyboard driver that comes with special edition rom, maybe somebody could offer it as a stand alone for you to try.

SOLUTION: To the "No Sound" problem on BA

OK.. Folks... after all the hard time i am facing with my unit. And all the love and care i spend on my BA. I came to the conclusion that the problem with the "No Sound" issues is link to the bluetooth.
What happened to the "No Sound" issue is that when making/receiving a call, the unit will try to connect to the BlueTooth Handfree profile (even if the Bluetooth is turn off!!!!). So, when this happens, the speaker and mic is disable because the unit "thinks" is connected to the Bluetooth Handfree profile.
Some user suggested that when the "no sound" issues occur, you can either soft reest or you can turn on/off your bluetooth and that will cure the problem for a while units it happens again.
What i did, i disable the entire bluetooth so that it will not load up on startup. Once i did that, the problem never did came back.
Procedures:
On root "Windows/StartUp" remove the file "Run_BTTrayCE" (same it somewhere else) then reset your unit.
Once the unit is reset, the bluetooth will not load on startup, that means the bluetooth is disable.
if you want your bluetooth to run again. you can either place the "Run_BTTrayCE" back on "Windows/StartUp" or to run the "BTTrayCE" in the Windows dir.
I hope some experts here can take this advice and see if they have any clue with what's going on..
BTW: Upgrading Radio Rom, or Bluetooth stack will not do anything so pls. don't waste your time on it.
I hope i have helped someone out there who is piss with this problem.

Hey there!
I like your solution but I personally think it might be a bit overkill! I used to use the Bluetooth all the time on my XDAII but on my XDAIIs I only use it for my bluetooth GPS. I am going to try deleting the profile for my Bluetooth headset and see if that makes any difference (seen as I don't use it because the sound quality is terrible).
I'll post back with results!

Still dont work even take away the file!
Hi, I do it as you say
just cut and past the file into my Storage Card
and i do a soft reset
"No sound no voice " problem still exist
Should i just delete the file entirely instead of just cut and paste it some where?
I am afraid that i will loose this file forever therefore i save it on my storage card
i dont know if this going to be a problem?
Please help this problem make me sick for almost 5 days already
Umm, creamcream, there is no reason to worry. In the worst case scenario where you lose the file, you can just re-flash your rom, or ask another forum member to send you the file. I would gladly do so.
creamcream: Is your bluetooth disabled? And, if so, you are still experiencing the no-sound problem? Because if you are, then you have discredited this theory.
thanks the lastone
Hi, i solve the problem at this time
I just want to knwo how u update 1.40 rom?
is it stable?
Official?
I am worry that if that is not official it will be very dangerous for my Xda IIS
by the way is it fit for all model
such as
sx 66, ppc 6600 and Xda IIs
is it simple to do so?
can i have the link where to download thankyou "thelastone"
If you are planning on upgrading your rom to the current highest version, 1.40.00, then I recommend you check out wiki for instructions:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel
If you do it properly, it is perfectly safe.

Hi Creamcream
I just want to know when you move "Run_BTTrayCE" to your SD Card and follow by a soft reset. When you unit boots up, do you see the BT icon on the bottom right hand corner? If the icon is still there, that mean you haven't successfully disable your Bluetooth from startup.
Also, the other way to try it is try running your bluetooth manager. if your bluetooth is turn off, it will give you a errors message saying your Bluetooth fail to turn on.. somthing like that.
Pls let me know your result....

You don't need to disable BT completely,
it will be enought to disable Hands-Free service
in BT Settings/Services/Hands-Free/
uncheck: Enable service
and in Advanced menu
uncheck "Telephone calls" for sure

@stachoo...wow, I hope this works for me..Ive just disabled the bluetooth using your method... will have to check the results...if this works for me then your a Lifesaver!!!!Tnx.
It has been almost 24 hrs since I disabled the hands free service... and I did about 5 calls, and until now I havnt experienced any "no sound" problem...I hope this is it!!!! Thanks!!! :lol:
GUYS
what about this problem :
The bluetooth turns off when you power off the screen ??
My findings so far:
If I keep Bletooth on all the time "nosound" never happens. At least not for about a week and did no softresets. However after some time something brakes regarding bletooth serial. The GPS thinks it´s online but nothing gets through. Closing and opening the serial port cures it momentarily. (This was with handfree services enabled). This never happend when I toogled Bluetooth on/off regulary.
Tried the trick to disable handsfree service yesterday but without unchecking "use handsfree for telephone calls". With Bluetooth turned off tonight the nosound reappeared, so just disable the main handfree service is not enough.
Have now also unchecked "use handsfree for telephone calls" and will report back if nosound occurs again.
(To the guy whos Bluetooth turns off: You probably have an old sw version where our nosound problem had not been introduced yet. 1.12.00 or soo...)

Disabled BT handfree and unchecked "Telephone calls" yesterday but unfortunately the nosound bug hit anyway tonight.
The idea to disable the handsfree service was a nice one but no, it did not prevent the nosound bug to strike!
Back to my own solution that sofar has prevented the nosound bug: Keep Blutooth on all the time.
i have tested all this but the only thing that wrked was...
right guys I have been reading and trying but the only thing thats worked for ME was radio rom upgrade seriously. I have an SPV m2000, i have tried all ROM updates, and at the moment I am on is...
by the way I upgraded to radio version 1.12 but this never solved it so i went back to 1.10 which works,
ROM version: 1.40.00 WWE
ROM date: 03/10/05
radio version: 1.10.00
protocol version:1337.391
ExtROM version:1.31.124
I dont know but i managed to only install what I wanted of this (orange rubbish ext rom)
NOW FOR THE DOWNSIDE MY UNIT USED TO BE SOFT RESETTED EVERYDAY, but now i only reset very very LESS times, its definetly better than before I can vouch for that. BUT WE NEED SOMETHING SOLID.
Product recall????? :lol:
Such problem as creamcream has
I have no sound from speaker (only on incoming call - it rings)
But in all other cases it keeps silence.
Flashing new ROM doesn't helps too.
It didn't helps for me.
Nor Bluetooth disabling, nor Flashing.
You say that you solve that issue.
Sorry - but I don't understand how did you do it?
Answer please -
What to do?
Thanx in advance.
OK, just to say I'm having the same problem for too long time now. No sound on calls nor the other party can hear me.

(1) Is XDA Orbit unlocked ? (2) Anyone tried Skype ?

Just a few questions to those that have already bought
1. Is it SIM unlocked ?My XDA Exec was, so I assume O2 is carrying on the tradition ?
2. How is skype performance over wifi ?
many thx
c.
dunno about the sim lock
to use skype you need to boost the CPU to 264Mhz otherwise it can handle voice on skype properly
its easliy done and when done works perfect
I use Skype with it, works very slow, voice does work kind of delayed.... but still.... intrested to know how you over clock it though?

Do a search for 'omapclock', its freeware. I've got my Orbit overclocked to 264mhz and its much zippier through the menus. I've got skype installed as well but haven't got around to trying it via wifi yet.

Hi
I used omapclock - does it but does not keep it all the time??
any suggestions.
Tried the current Skype Version today without overclocking the device.
SkypeOut works great for me AFTER disabling 3 codecs in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Skype/Phone/Audio/DisableCodecs
Put into the field: ILBC G729 EG711U
That disables 3 codecs.
Calls to the Skype-Echo/Sound-Test won't work - but SkypeOut worked fine for me via WiFi - but only through the hands-free speaker of the phone.
Any idea how to use the normal speaker?

I've posted a question in an Eten forum re using the normal speaker. The X500 has an app that switches Skype from the handsfree to the normal speaker.
Still on Skype, a version 2.2 (beta) has been released yesterday that has been optimised to work on 200MHz processors. Is this the one you have tried, and in this case how is the quality in general?
No, I tried the "old" one from December 11.
The German Skype website doesn't provide the new version yet - I had to switch to the English site.
I'll test the new 2.2 Version this evening.
Anyone tested this app (what's it called?) from the x500 to use the normal speaker?

Re. the X500 I'm hoping to receive a reply as to what registry settings need to be changed, and I've also asked if the CAB with the app can be extracted. I'll post the reply when I receive one.
EDIT: StiflersMom - When testing Skype 2.2 could you please try without/with overclocking (if indeed you overclock) and tell us about the separate results?
sooooo, have you unlocked your artemis? i have a MDAc 3, and it is still unlocked, can somebody help me? Please!

I read somewhere that Omapclock settings are lost after switching the phone off. Try BatteryStatus instead (freeware). Despite the name it has several other options, including cpuspeed settings.

Just plonked my Orange sim into an O2 XDA Orbit and works fine so looks like they are sim free.
I have used skype lite version over GPRS. it worked, and i was able to talk to other ppl, but the gprs speed is very slow so my voice was crackling a lot, while other person's voice did come in a bit clear.
will try with wifi sometime soon!
Just used Skype 2.2 over Wifi to my land line and it was as good as any phone no issue so far any way. Pretty sure i wasnt overclocked at the time. I was happy enough to load up £10 quids qorth of credit ( though seems scammy to buy 10 quid credit and have to pay 11.50 :/ inc tax.
Does anyone know a tester to test stabillity of the overclock ? its really dangerious for me i cant help but keep trying a higher oc had at 280 for 5 seconds before i chickened out lol only had less then a day
I have the 3.1 ROM with cube thingy and it has a, um for lack of better word menu bar, i press and hold for a moment to access the options. There you can set the OC to stay on always.
I dont know how far too push it ( i overclock everyhting any way i used to over clock my crt monitor lol ) but without stabillity test i am abit worried i'll screw the rom or somthing.
FYI on the overcloking the hotter it gets usually decreases the mount you can overclock stabally, this prog also shows temp, my one seemed perfectly stable at 247 @ 40c quite warm i had wifi going full and was streaming radio, also shows power pulled its pretty damn neat... i am luvin my orbit i have had it almost 24 hours now lol nd thanks too all the good work done by people have it pretty tweaked and close to near how i want it very quickly a hours instead of days n maybe weeks so thsnks
Ed oh i baught mine off ebay it was a month old when i got it and it was sim unlocked but not CID unlocked. payed £200 seems good to me concidering the tomtom i baught as a prezzy forsomeone came in over £100.

VitoFindMe

Just wondering if any others are using this neat little app and what your experiences are with it?
I tested it on a roadtrip by leaving my trinity in my friends car with the screen off. Every few minutes I would send an sms to my trinity and it would reply with my friends coordinates. I would then input his coordinates into my PNA to see where he was. Worked great. I was most impressed by the battery life remaining on my phone when I got it back...after 18 hours and 120 or so text messages I still had 80% battery remaining.
Anyone else use it? What are your thoughts?
Top Class App
Hi, this is a pretty smart bit of "FREE" kit. I use for cycling / walking if every i get knocked off or lost Help knows where I am instantly!
***** star all round
Do you need to activate the built-in GPS through it, or would VitoFindMe start it by itself?
I'm asking because this could be a nice way to keep an eye on the kids, or if my trinity gets stolen.
Thanks for the tip anyway.

It runs on the today screen and always runs as long as it's on the today screen. You can also specify gps settings manually or have it detect. The only catch is you have to activate the product or you will have to soft reset after sending coordinates 3 times. Activation is free btw.

You only need to configure the keyword, when you send an sms with that keyword vito will reply with the current location as soon as it gets a gps fix:
" Go to http://maps.google.com and input "38.7093 -9.14376" into search box "
You may want to disable the sent message notification, and hide the vito plugin on a pocket breeze tab so that it isn't clearly visible that the device is running it, otherwise whoever finds the device will immediately read the scrolling message on the today screen: "Attention, VITO FindMe is installed! This phone can be located via SMS"
Thank you for your imputs. Can't the scrolling message just be hidden at the Today Screen by unselecting "Find Me" at the Today Items settings (settings>today>items), like I did, or if it gets hidden it won't work?

Maybe you can try this www.mtsfriends.ro
Isn't Eten "LocateSMS" just to send your position where FindMe automatically responds with your position when it receives an SMS from someone with the correct code in the body of the message?

[Q] Bluetooth Message Access Profile(MAP)

I am thinking about getting the One X but I do have a question first. I search the forums and read plenty of reviews to no avail. Does anyone know if the One X support the Bluetooth Message Access Profile(MAP). I would like the feature in my next phone to use with my Ford Sync system.
Me too. Though my Sensation does it pretty well. Never hurts to be sure...
It apparently does support it. I was able to see text messages on my BMW 550's iDrive screen earlier. During pairing, I got a MAP Access request.
However there appears to be some kind of bug. When you go to Advanced Options in Bluetooth Settings, the only thing you see if FTP Server. However briefly other options flash and then disappear. Once earlier the options 'stuck' but if you'd check them they wouldn't save.
Hopefully the forthcoming OTA fixes this. I was really hoping this phone would show contact pictures in iDrive. The Sensation supports this. I suspect something in Bluetooth needs to be enabled that is not. (I borrowed a Lumia 900 with WP7 and it did this -- quite cool.)
Can anybody else test to see if the Advanced Options menu does the same thing?
When you got the MAP Access Request, did you select the 'always allow' option too? If not go back through the pairing process again to fix this.

Awesome. Thanks for the help.

Still doesn't work, unfortunately. The options appear quickly and then disappear.
I cannot get Contact Pictures to work, nor E-mail. Text messages seem sporadic.
IT WORKS!
I just got the One X yesterday and it works perfectly for me with Ford SYNC and for the BMW iDrive in my wife's X5d. You are correct though, there does not seem to be any literature or documentation stating this as part of the phone's capability. My selling agent was willing to send me the One X to try out over the weekend. To my surprise and contentment, I finally have an Android phone working with AT&T and all of my BT capabilities. No compromises.
Any tips on getting it working? I enable "Message Access" in the Bluetooth advance setting. My Sync system won't Download unread messages and it won't let me send text message from the car. The phone hasn't pop up with a allow MAP access request dialog either. Any idea what I am doing wrong?
I am also using the ATT One X. Not sure if thats the problem or not.

I currently drive the BMW X3 F25 with advanced bluetooth connectivity , and although sms and phonebook works fine the email function in the office menu just states"No messages with the current filter." Before buying my HTC one X I checked the bmw compatibility site and saw that the HTC sensation supports this function with no problems at all, however after they updated their site to show the One x it does show no email support for one x but support with the sensation. What is really bugging me is what makes the sensation so special to allow the email support that the One x cant offer?
Is there any custom roms out there that might give me that support?
Are you on a specific custom rom allowing you ALL of your BT capabilities in your wife's car (inc Email) ?
Kind regards
Sorry to bring up an old thread, but I'm hoping to get some help here. I have been having trouble getting the MAP settings for my One X to stick to connect to my Toyota Entune. I will set up the advance settings in bluetooth, but it will not save. Entune is set up to go. I just can't get the settings to say on the phone. Anyone had this issue and was able to fix it?
I am a sensation user and before I rooted my phone most of the features worked. I have been looking high and low for more info in this so I will give you what I have.
4.4 (KitKat) has native support for MAP (Message Access Protocol) which is part of the Bluetooth stack. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth_profile#Message_Access_Profile_.28MAP.29)
Most Makers of the phones (HTC) have to set the profiles accordingly. The sensation had it for the HTC email app that was part of stock because it was built with that MAP profile setting from HTC. My car could not send a text message but it could receive them. After loading KitKat on my Sensation I can now send the messages but I think Google hangouts is messing with the receiving side of it. I am still trying to wrap my head around this but there you go...
Good luck!
