Bluetooth Headphones Problem

I have an O2 XDA Mini S and have just purchased a pair of Motorola HT820 Bluetooth headphones. I have paired the two; however, I only get the Hands Free service (which works) but NO Wireless Audio. I have not installed any other software / drives and I am using WMP 10 Mobile to play the music.
Any help with this problem would be very much appreciated.
Thanks, Harold Clements

...Ok, I have been on this for about 4 hours now and I am starting to get a bit annoyed.
I clicked on Motorola HT820 and then went ‘Refresh’ and up popped ‘Headset’ so I ticked that and saved. I then clicked (and held) on Motorola HT820. The options that I get are Edit – Delete – Set as Hands Free. I think I should also have ‘Set as Wireless Stereo’ or something, but I don’t.
Please, has anyone any ideas?
Thanks, Harold Clements

Wirless Audio Hacks
I really could do with someone’s help!
I have read about the ‘hacks’ (zoad2p.cab, Tornado asdp, AKU2.6) but I am unsure:
a) if this is a solution to for problem / PDA.
b) what a hack is and why is it needed?
Please can someone help!

I don't know wich kind of PDA you have, as you can see everyone here calls their PDAs by their HTC's code name (mine is a universal), go to look the pictures of all the PDAs, find yours and search directly inside there, it will be much easier for you to find an answer.
One simple comment, your PDA has to have the Bluetooth high quality audio (is called be some PDAs in this way), see if your PDA does contain such feature, you have to activate it if you want to hear stereo audio, generally when you pair your phones for the first time, your PDA will show you the option already ticked, if you haven't see it, chances are that something is missing in your bluetooth profiles, go to your PDA's specific part of this forum and read, with patience and some luck, I'm sure you'll find whatever you need to get your PDA's stereo audio to work.
Most of the cases, are just the lack of the profiles or even installing another BT stack.
good luck

Thanks...
Thank you very much for your advice / reply, it was very much appreciated. It seems that my PDA is a Wizard. I will indeed search that part of this forum.
Thanks again,
Harold Clements

I don't think your phone supports A2DP profile. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Neither do i know if his phone supports it, I use to have an Ipaq 6340, it suppose that it didn't supported A2DP but with an BT stack extracted from another PDA (don't remember wich one) it worked, it didn't worked very well, it dropped audio more or less each 30 seconds for 2 seconds, someone said at that time that was processor lack of power -I didn't agree with this-, but I did no further investigation.
As far as I've understood, the main bottleneck for stereo profiles (or any deamanding profile in BT) is the radio, of course, if We don't have access to the manufacturers good information, good tools, much time and even more will is very hard to find a solution to anything, most of us do not spend lots of time with this things -it's not easy for anyone with a "normal" life-, and I'm not complaining!
It's just fine for me, the whole thing it's quite enjoyable like this, some more time spent in this way and it would become a second work.
So, may us have fun and keep an excellent forum up.

To be truthful, I know very little about what I am trying to do. All I know is that I can’t get the music side of the Motorola headset working.

a hack is getting a device which dont support a feature to do it anyway
if htc dident make your device to support a2dp == bluetooth stereo
you maybe be able to get it to do it anyway using a hack
if any hacks works for your device
as it differs
bluetooth support is never support for all profiles bluetooth have
plus there are bluetooth version 1 - 1.1 - 1.2 and 2.0

The zoia a2dp hack (zoa2dp.cap) is what you need, it will give you "Set as wireless stereo" but be prepared for pretty bad skipping, that has not yet been solved for all of wizards.
Also if you flash to a custom rom (Like Molski's 2.26 it'll have the patch automatically.)

Using Artemis as bluetooth Headset for PC

Hi there,
I've been watching this forum for quite some time now and usualy find al the answers here. But this time I can't...
I recently received my Artemis, and since I'm a Voipbuster user, I would like to use my Artmis as a 'headset' for my PC, connecting via bluetooth, calling over Voip onmy PC, and talking and listening on my Artemis.
Is this possible and how?
Thanks for all the help,

Hi, I think its easy enough to do so. I use to do this with skype but the idea is the same.
First the bluetooth stack that windows has is no good. You gonna need another one with more profiles. I use the WIDCOMM bluetooth stack.
I dont now what hardware u have, mine was branded in device properties "blutonium" and its internal in my laptop, I search their site and downloaded the said drivers (stack). Now maybe urs maybe different... u should find one and the newest version the best. Use google or something...
Anyway, after installation I run the bluetooth configuration utility and after pairing my bluetooth headset with my laptop I shoose to use the profile "hands free audio" with my headset. Afterwards I open skype and in settings where u choose audio (in which the only option before was my sound card) now appeared the option of my wireless headset. After that the sound comes from my headset.
I think that u can choose to use the Artemis as a "hands free audio device" among others when u do the pairing.
The funny thing is that u can do the opposite and when pairing u can choose your PC to be Artemis' hands free audio meaning that... when u play an mp3 or someting on ur Artemis u can hear it through ur PC speakers... from 10 meters distance...
The only requirement is to have a new and feature-rich bluetooth stack.
Good Luck

Hey thanks a lot for the tip!
I'll try it out

Application audio over bluetooth?

Having installed TOMTOM6 on my HTC-3300 (t-Mob branded) I am looking for a way to route TOMTOM traffic messages thru my bluetooth carkit.
Obviously the phone calls go through fine, but afaik all the pda apps. sounds only run thru the mda's speaker.
Does anyone know a workaround or reg. tweak to do this?, I can't immagine I am the only one who would be looking for such functionality.....unless everybody else uses the gps function only 4 walking
Help much appreciated,
Frans

If your car kit supports the A2DP profile for Audio over Bluetooth and you select the option to use it all the audio from TomTom will be via the car kit, check what your car kit is capable of supporting - Mike

I'm using btaudio
greetz

Thanks for the tips!
My Nokia carkit does not support A2DP, it's the old CK-7W type....
I will try the above attached btaudio once more. Previous attempts using this program were not succesful, I believe the bt hardware of the artemis was not recognized.
I remember that on my IPAQ 5550 I changed a registry setting, enabling audio over BT, but I could not find such an entry in the Artemis reg.
Keep you posted on progress, and thanks sofar!

Succes!
Just tried btaudio, attached by hotatomic, and it works!!!!
Haven't tried what happens if I get an incoming call yet, but the sound for TT6 is much better using the Nokia handsfree.
Thanks!!!

Hi guys,
I'm a newbie here, and was pointed to your excellent forum from one of the Mods over at pocketgpsworld.com.
I am running copilot 6 on an O2-registered xda Orbit, using a scala rider headset, on my motorbike, and i need to install btaudio.cab to mt xda in order for the insturctions to be relayed to my earpiece. My question is this - whereabouts to do i need to upload the file to on my xda (obviously somewhere in the copilot files, but i'm not sure where!!) and do i need to unpack it first?
Any help or tips gratefully recieved!!
Welsh Biker

No transfer the cab file directly to the orbit, (storage card is usually the best place to put them).
Then in file explorer, double click the .cab file to run it and it will install the application.
It's a separate application to Copilot.

i have a orbit and i installed the btaudio cab but unfortunately it doesnt work for me. do i need to change any other setting for it to work properly? i am using a motorola hs350 headset. i am trying to use it to listen to music on my headset instead of the internal speaker. i tested tomtom6 with it and that is still being heard on the speaker and not the headset. thanks

Connect the headset to the Artemis first, then run BTAudio, switch to "on" and then minimize don't exit the program.
Have you got software that closes apps by pressing the x button or something, so that you keep switching the app off when activating tomtom etc.

how silly of me, checked settings menu, connections menu everything except the program menu!!!
Thanks a lot mate

Hi,
I seem to be having the same problem as some of the other guys. The Bt software is installed on my Orbit, I pair the phone with my car then switch the software on. At this stage the TomTom voice stops coming from the phone but doesn't come through the handfree either. If I switch the software off again the sound returns to the phone.
Is this being caused by the format of the handfree kit in my car as mentioned on the first page of this post?? How would I positively confirm the format of my handsfree kit?
Cheers
Rob.

i try to install and it works, but when i turn on audio my radio goes in mute, is possible to send the sound only when tomtom talk?

Hi all
I also need help with audio features. Is there an app that will send all audio through the head phone socket (connected to autocom on motorbike) and phone calls through bluetooth have tryed the app in this tread but it wont split it only redirects all audio?
PS sorry for the high jack of your thread just seemed a good place to ask this.

[APP] Auto A2DP ( Auto connects the a2dp on car radio )

I wrote this application because when I get into my car it only connects the bluetooth handsfree and doesn't connect the a2dp automaticly. There is an application that connects the a2dp by pressing a button, it's called a2dp toggle. You can find it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437726
My application runs the a2dp toggle command line options to connect the audio to a car radio when the mobile gets connected to the radio for handsfree.
Before you install my application make sure you have installed a2dp toggle. Just install the cab file. After the installation you can start the service with the "Auto A2DP Manager" found in programs, you can also stop the service here. It also starts the service at startup of the device after the installation.
The CPU usage is 0.1% on average and memory usage around 300k.
Let me know if you have some extra idea's.
I like to thank te people that made A2DP Toggle and Pavel Bánský for his windows mobile managed service, his blog can be found here.
[UPDATE 4/14/2009]
I just found out that I have put the location of a2dp toggle hardcoded, so this version only worked when you have installed a2dp toggle on a dutch windows mobile on the device.
This is fixed in the new version v1.0.1.
[UPDATE 4/14/2009]
There was another bug in the application, it seems that there was a little problem with the application link. This is fixed now. New version v1.0.2.
[UPDATE 4/27/2009]
The application has some problems in windows mobile 6.5. It seems that the service runs correctly, but the manager doesn't work.
So in windows mobile 6.5 install the application and soft reset the device. It should then work. Don't use the manager in windows mobile 6.5, it creates new instances of the services and cannot stop them. After a reset they are stopped.

sweet! thanks man - i'll give it a try later 2nite. Wonder if it will work with MSVC, hmmmm

Hello
Cool idea, but it will not work for me.
I want to use this App with my XPERIA and my Car Handsfree "Funkwerk EGO Look". I start the Car Handsfree and then I switch on BT on my XPERIA after a longe Time ago (because the XPERIA BT is very Bugy the Bluetooth connects but the A2DP connection does not appear. If I start it with the A2DP Toggle tool manualy then it works.
Does this app only work on Blackstone Phone?
Bye

bug
no it should work on windows mobile 6 but I looked in to it and found the problem I will fix it and upload the new version v1.0.2, I will do it now.
[UPDATE]
You can download v1.0.2. now

Hello wian007
Now it works, thank you very much.
This Workaround is what i'm looking for a long time, now I can simply switch on BT and play Music in my car and a other affirmative effect is that Bluetooth connects much quicker.
And over again, thanks for you great Work.
Bye

Hello wian
I am again
I am searching a solution to execute a command to pause my MP3 player if A2DP is lost for 2-5sec. I want to do this with a Mortscript, do you know how is it possible to read the state of A2DP (established or not)?
Is there a Registry entry?
Bye

checking the a2dp state
to check the state me the a2dp I used the window mobile state class that comes with the framework. so I think you could find it in the registry but I'm not sure.

I was just wondering about this...
Great work so far.
- Anthony

Quick Question:-
Are you looping to check the connected devices, or are you using RequestBluetoothNotifications from coredll.dll?
-Anthony

no I'm not looping. it is based on events that get fired when a status in the status class of windows mobile sdk changes. I used managed code to write this application.
But maybe I should rewrite it in unmanaged code and intergrate the functionality to connect the a2dp, instead of using the external application a2dp toggle.

quick question-must my car radio have Blutooth?

Is your app able to transmit music/navigations commands to my bluetooth car kit? In stock my ROM is not able to do so.
My old symbian devices where all able to to that. But with windows mobile all is different.

I'm with HD with v3.0 duttys rom and cannot get this thing to work.
Any solution??

Yes, to make this application work, you have to be able to mannualy connect your mobile with your car radio to have your sound on your car speakers.
Also your car radio must connect as an handsfree control device. This triggers the making of a connection.
If you cannot make a connection with your carradio by running the a2dp toggle executable my application will also not work because my application runs also the executable.

My application doesn't provide that functionality. My application runs a2dp toggle when a handsfree connection is made.

Can you post the last lines of the log file "a2dp.log" that has been created in the root of your device?
And does your mobile connect when you run ad2p toggle?

Hope this isn't off topic.
Has anyone seen text messaging work through a Windows CE device to a head unit?
I had a Sony Erricson W810 and the HFP/A2DP worked as did the messaging push to the car stereo. (I have a Kenwood DNX7120 with BT). Could read and respond through the Head Unit...I know a bit dangerous..but the technology worked well.
My symbian (N95) devices worked fine with HFP and A2DP, but not message push either.
My current device (Sony Experia) works great with the HFP and with A2DP profile but again not with messaging.
Just currious...cwh

It has a more lines, but they are all the same as these two lines
If my mobile connect when I run ad2p toggle?? My device when I plug the key into my car, automatically connects to the car kit bluetooth. No need for any intervention.

Yes ok, your handsfree is connected but does your mobile connect with bluetooth stereo if you run a2dp toggle. It seems that this doesn't work.
So the only solution that I can think of is that you need to set your radio as stereo output in the bleutooth connections. Then test if a2dp toggle connects your phone to the radio. If so restart the device and it should work.

Handsfree
I use Plantronix handsfree when I'm away from the car and a Parrot handsfree in the car. I want the Parrot handsfree to take over automatic when use the car.
Do anyone have the solution ????

Force bluetooth "phone audio" from nexus 7?

Nexus 7 2013 WiFi
Stock 6.0.1 rooted with Timur's Kernel v4
For some reason when I BT connect my tablet to ANY pioneer head unit (tried 3 so far) I don't get the check box in bluetooth options for "phone audio" . I am using the Verizon messages+ app to make calls and receive texts over wifi Hotspot from my phone. This works amazingly but for some reason I can't get it to route through to the pioneer bluetooth connection. I tried a set of bluetooth headphones and the phone audio checkbox is there and it works flawlessly.
I did some Google searching and searched this sub but don't see anything relating to this problem.
edit: see below for update
Is there a way to force a bluetooth profile to use "phone audio"? Is there a Config file anywhere I can manually edit?
I've tried Bluetooth Auto Connect and choosing the phone audio option for the head unit but it did not change anything.

I assume your nexus is lte ?

Sorry should have put that info in the initial post. No, it is the WiFi model.
I would be wifi tethering my phone to get network connectivity. This is a Nexus 7 carputer type build.
Bit of an update though:
Per a website that I cant post a link to until i make 10 posts.... It looks like the nexus 7 2013 lacks the HFP (Hands Free Profile) by default. Now I'm not entirely sure why the bluetooth headset works if this profile is not present other than its possible the headset uses the HSP (Head Set Profile) but I can't seem to find any documentation on if the N7 actually has the HSP.
Through extensive googling, I ended up at posts talking about Bluez bluetooth stack implementation. This is a bit over my head though and cant really find any solid documentation on implementing it on Stock 6.0.1
I also ended up getting directed to the source.android page that mentions at the bottom:
Custom Bluetooth profiles - If you want to add Bluetooth profiles that do not have HAL interfaces provided by Android, you must supply an SDK add-on download to make the profile available to app developers, make the APIs available in the Bluetooth system process app (packages/apps/Bluetooth), and add them to the default stack (system/bt).

But like I said, this is over my head.
Anyone with any sort of experience give me some insight?
