As some of you may have found out i-mate launched its FINAL bluetooth patch yesterday only to withdraw it this morning.
Well this afternoon (my time GMT+3) they launched it again. Knowing that quite a few of you folks are NOT members of clubimate and would like to get the patch, I've downloaded them (as there are five flavors of them depending on your which ROM you are using; WWE, FRA, PTB, ITA and SPA)
Device Support - Bluetooth Patch # 2 for i-mate™ PDA2k
i-mate™ is aware of the problems being experienced with the i-mate™ PDA2k Bluetooth. This is the second patch which will improve the bonding between the i-mate™ PDA2k and other devices. With this patch the bonding between the i-mate™ PDA2k and Bluetooth headsets will be more robust, after the PDA2k has entered Power Save (Sleep) Mode. Customers have previously observed that:
- when the i-mate™ PDA2k enters Sleep Mode for a period of time, any in-coming voice call alert is not relayed via the Bluetooth link to the Bluetooth headset, so no audible alert is heard.
- when the i-mate™ PDA2k is bonded to a Bluetooth headset and has entered Sleep Mode, the device will periodically wake-up while in an idle state, without prompting by the customer, leading to unnecessary power drain of the battery.
The patch does not correct the beaming problem between devices using the Brodcomm Bluetooth stack, like the i-mate™ PDA2k, and devices using the Microsoft Bluetooth stack. We are still working on a resolution to this issue. Some Jabra BT250 headsets will also still have audio quality issues and we recommend contacting Jabra for a solution.
The correct patch to install on your device can be determined by tapping Start > Settings > System > Device Information and checking the ROM version suffix, eg x.yy.zzz WWE.

Bluetooth version on the PDA2K
hey
downloaded the lastest version of the bluetooth patch from i-mate guess what.
The first update they did they upgraded the stac from build 2500 to buid 3500.
Now with the new version they have gone back to version build 3000.
Now he is the problem bluetooth driver still insufficient drivers with both of the stacks.
With stack 3500 when I connect to my Parrot 3300 bluetooth in the car it works fine I even get the network signal saying ok.
Now when I upgraded to the new vesrion which is build 3000 when I connect to the Parrot bluetooth car kit the network signal is not shown anymore so what the hell is I-mate do can they just release the new version or not.
My brother has a Qtek 9090 his upgraded to the new rom he get the license has expired on the Italian version what a joke.
Hows fault is this CD or Broadcom the makers of the bluetooth drivers.
I would like to known so I can pester the right people.
Thanks

Just after the setup, I had exactly the issues on my QTEK9090. Go in the parameters -> Today and change the theme. After this, you shouldn't have any more screen problem. After a short test, it seems the Bluetooth problems with my Jabra 200 fixed! Good luck

MDA III Warning
Just installed the Bluetooth patch on my MDA III and was presented with a completely black screen after Soft Reset. The only way around this was to Hard Reset. Yet to test the performance of the patch, but thought I would pass on the warning.
Had same problem on MDAII (black screen after reset - hard reset to cure) so am using previous patch
hi all
please i wanna help .. im in deep trouble whan i was tryin to upgread my PDA2K the screen become black and word Serial v2.06 or USB v2.06 is in the screen... i tried to hard rest but there was no response.. the screen now is empty and i dont have any information to back it again!!! please any 1 here can help me
but where they on clubimate :?:
there only last ROM. Has not understood humour. :shock:
Could someone upload these patches to our xda-developers ftp server under the blueangel directory. There should be a bluetooth patches directory somewhere there......
Thanks
All you should need to do is remove it from the cradle,then put it back in the cradle and restart the upgrade again. It should start to run again.
If that doesn't work,there are a couple of other things you can try.

Can somebody confirm that it works for XDA IIs please? cheers
Resurrecting DEAD threads from December 2004 will only serve to confuse the unwary! If you NEED this patch, go to the iMate website, register your phone and download it. *sigh* FYI: The patch has been incorporated into the WM2003 ROMs released since.
Tuatara ,
Is this patch incoorperated in Helmi WM5 Rom ? If not, any effect if i install this patch into BA Helmi WM5 ?
Thanks!

Bluetooth stack
The upgrade will not help at all....
However......
I got my boss the Verizon XV6600WOC and it has the same Bluetooth stack just version 2400 instead of 2200.
What stack versions are you guys working with?
Now I just need to rip the bluetooth files out of it. If i find any success in getting his bluetooth stack version on to mine, I will post the files and instructions here.
BTW: His stack HAS to be better since we both have a Jabra Freespeak 250 and I have a HBH-200 and his bluetooth headsets work flawlessly with absolutely zero crackling or interference
It's not worth posting... but here it is.
ed, yes! get his build 2400! that would absolutely rock. I've heard great things about it.
Roadblock
I dont have any tools to extract ROMS, files, etc. from Blue Angel's or Harriers
Before my PDA2K I had an SX56 from Siemens, now THAT I can do just about anything with at this point.
I need the tools to:
Save the ROM and extended ROM with Activesynch and to be able to extract the files from it
Just posting to keep this thread current and at the top of the page
Can anyone provide assistance on how to extract the Bluetooth stack from a Blue Angel to a format which can be inserted onto another device?
If what's being discussed here is true, the BT stack in Verizon's Blue Angel could be the solution to the BT problems with the other models like PDA2k, MDA III, etc.
Thanks!
Progress
I have good news and I have bad news and then I have some more good news, but not today.
Good News - I was able to get a lot of the files off the XV6600WOC and some of the extended rom cabs.
Bad News - 3 files are protected somehow and I cannot copy them with the device on. BTCESTACK.DLL, BTCEPROFILES.DLL,BTPANMANAGERCE.EXE
Delayed Good News - There is a good chance that I might be getting an additional XV6600WOC unit that I can do a proper rom dump on and post it here on the 15th.
I will post 2 attachements. One is the bluetooth files, the other is some of the extended rom cabs after I unlocked it. I was not able to get the unit in my hands long enough to get them all, the guy had to leave. Also, a proper rom dump was not possible, since he had all his programs and data installed.
Hope these files help somewhat.
Extended Rom Cabs for XV6600WOC
Here are some of the extended rom cabs
Awesome. Thanks for getting what you could, Ed. I will play with them a little later tonight. Thanks again!

Off BT.
Move BTTrayCE from /Windows/StartUp folder to another location.
Reset.
Copy the 3 files.
Relocate BTTrayCE back to /Windows/StartUp folder.
Reset.
Hope this works Bro.
I copied the bt files you posted to the c:\windows directory.
For a quick 2 minutes test I noticed the phone still turns on every 30-60 seconds or so after I make a call via the bt headset. We may need those 3 other files (if not more) after all.
ok, I downloaded http://www.asukal.jp/BT_Headset.CAB which replaced the files you were unable to extract with the bt 1.6 stack. So far so good. I will test it and let you guys know.

Regarding the files you got out of the above CAB file:
Are they the same version as the files you couldn't extract from the XV6600WC? If not, this could cause big problems.
Just a friendly warning; let us know how it goes.
nah, the cab above is not the same version. it worked none-the-less. i seemed to have gotten more auto turn ons with the cab, so i now reverted back to my pda2k's original 2200 stack with the verizon files he posted above. I definately notice the phone syncs with the bt headset much quicker, and so far hasn't lost connectivity with it. I still hear static when im only 5 ft or so away from it. (its the sony ericsson 660) I didn't get this with my old moto headset.
From http://www.seeo2.com/support/XdaIIs/template/ServiceMenu.vm
As it's only available for O2 Asia customers then I cannot see the files / nor get at it ...
Can anyone oblige / test ?
Cheers
Mark
Here you go

Prelimanary test are good. I'm guessing the patch is exactly the same as the one posted for the Pda2k from Imate, it is build 3500. SO far no issue with my sony hbh-660 headset and no issues yet with my TomTom Navigator USA bluetooth either. So for now, I am very pleased with the results, but I am going to give it one full day, especially with the headset before I can completely be satisifed. Adios.

Extraction
Anyway to extract the files from this setup?
Good question. I know it's a setup.exe pretty much that kicks off the install process via active synch, then seems to place the temp files in Flash memory, thus requiring the soft reset. Not sure there is a way to capture the files being written to temp space, but I am sure there is someone on this forum that can do it
If you run the installation without connecting your XDA, you will find the cab file in:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync\Bluetooth headset upgrade patch for Xda IIs
Interesting that with the first imate posted bt patch the 3500 version which was withdrawn, one file showed build 3000 all others 3500. this O2 patch makes all file versions 3500 so is a final release and later than the imate patch.
Imate say they have a new final patch coming soon which will prob be the same as o2, since these all come from htc.
Patch seems good so far.
3500 Patch seems to be good
Downloaded the 3500 patch yesterday and installed in my i-mate PDA2k, certainly seems to have fixed the main BT headset problems (Sony Ericsson HBH-20). Thanks to those who take the time to post these things. A good Christmas present.
not so good. again scrasheesssss into the headset.
Waiting for another patch
hey this is the same old patch that was released by QTEK 3 weeks ago so whats new in it. I have checked both the patches they are both the same, not even a single file differs. But as always O2 is the last to deliver patches. It is very slow in providing updates, all other operators have provided new rom updates butO2 is still waitng dont now for what.
THE LAST TO DELIVER PATCHES????
Imate didn't release this patch for almost 4 days after O2 and before they had a 3000 build release. Tell the Tmobile MDA people, Siemens SX66 and all the CDMA versions of the phone with crippled bluetooth who have had no "official" update.
Great that Qtech first and early but O2 were second when all the rest are still waiting.
ONLY qtech has released a full upgrade rom. No others have.
Of course the patch will be the same, its not the operator like Qtech or Imate that makes these things, its HTC.
Patch Not Working in SX66
I dl'ed the patch into my SX66, and was hoping - no PRAYING - that it would help the BT issues..
My Jabra 250 sounds just the same..damnit!! (grin!)
Any other ideas, folks?
BTW, HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Well, needless to sat after further testing of the O2 xdaiis patch, I am still having issues with my Sony headset. I am connected for 4 hours and then all of the sudden the pairing just drops and I have to reconnect the headset which is very frustrating, so it sems this latest patch has some issues. NOt sure what to do now. I have already sent O2 support several e-mails with just a standard canned response, which is total BS
The Imate patch is way way better
Well I have tried the XDA IIs patch and I must say it sucks a.. The Imate patch which is a lower bluetooth stack build is way better. With the O2 patch the XDA IIs still randomly turns on. Garbage!!! Come on O2 release a new rom with media player 10 and a bluetooth fix.
Michael :idea:
No problems here...Motorola 850 works PERFECT. The official BT patch works great...must be either your headset or 3rd party software
Where...
can I get the imate patch...and is it the whole rom or just hte BT stack> Many thanks;' perhaps THAT will work in my SX66 and my son's O2
Guest, I have two XDA II's with a Motorola 820 bluetooth headset, and with all native apps installed and on the O2 bluetooth patch release it turns on randomly. It does not with the I mate patch so, the O2 release is garbage. Thats why Imate pulled they same bluetooth stack build that O2 released. There is issues with it.
Hi
I have been playing with this for a day now, and it has introduced more bugs in the wifi functionality. If you want to use WiFi from your IIs then I would avoid this 'update' like the plauge.
What you get:
- ROM: 1.31.00 WWE (13th Dec 04) so this is 2.5 months old
- Radio 1.06.00 (1.06.02 is latest)
- ExtRom: 1.31.139 WWE (no real updates to existing progs)
Whats Better
---------------
- The camera performs better in low light conditions (I used to get vertical lines on the screen
- Bluetooth stack build 3500. A vast improvement, but the latest is now build 3900 which some say solves the 'scratching noise' that is heard in some headsets
Whats Worse/Not Fixed
---------------------------
- O2 Active V3.5. Its bloody awful - spends its life redrawing the screen, its very sluggish, and adds nothing to the today screen. I never used to use the old version, but having the O2 icon was handy for its ability to list the active connections and terminate them. Much is made of the ability to change the position of the icon (which I never found to be a problem in the first place. Tapping the new icon starts O2 Active rather than listing the active connections. To list active connections, you need to tap and hold for 5 seconds. I find that after tapping and holding, I get the menu, but that the menu then fails to respond to my 'close connection' taps. I reverted back to the old O2 active program.
- WiFi. They have completely buggered it up. It was unreliable at best beforehand. I have a network at home, which I finally pursuaded the device to connect to after multiple resets. I headed into work this morning (2 AP's) switched it on, and it just sat there searching for the network. I went into Tools-->Network cards, and see the work network listed as 'connected' (it was not connected, I had not given it the PSK yet). I soft reset the device, and it finally saw the network and prompted with the usual 'Internet/Work' dialogue. I was then asked for the pass key. At this point I noticed that there is no longer a possibility to activate the soft keyboard in order to enter the pass key (A right pain in the arse when the passkey is just a random multicase/numeric key, and all you get are ** on the dialogue). Anyway, I entered the key, and the device refused to get a valid IP address. Doing IPconfig showed that the wireless card was trying to use an old GPRS IP!!! I tried a renew (3rd party ipconfig tool). I tried stopping and starting wifi. Eventually, I soft reset (still the same), so I stopped wifi, soft reset, started wifi - and *finally* it decided to go and get itsself an IP address. (this is a bug I saw in the old firmware, but its worse than it used to be).
- WiFi still marks the wrong networks as 'available', i.e at work, 10 miles from home, my home network is marked as 'available' and my work network is marked as 'unavailable' !!! (this is an old bug)
- In Network adapters, the dialogue, 'My Work Network Connects To:' is blank, and there is no longer a possibility to select work/internet (options are blank). This is new to v1.31.139 (anyone else also missing this)
- If you select a wifi connection and change it from being a 'work' connection to an 'internet' connection then the change does not stick. This is new to v1.31.139
- In the MMS applet, it is no longer possible to select a 'modem' directly. I used to be able to select 'O2 Active'. You now have to select a profile that includes an appropriate modem. This is new to v1.31.139
- When editing a network profile in 'network management' eg: My ISP. the device still forgets to display existing modem/vpn connections. (same as old version).
Out Of Date Software / missing software
-----------------------------------------------
- Photo Contacts (CallerId cab) is still version 1.17 (latest is 1.20)
- Missing O2 plus - other o2 devices include this
- Missing Intelipad
- Missing Smartdialer
- Old build of Java Midlet software
- Old build of MMS composer software
Other Thoughts
------------------
For my money, the device feels more sluggish than it did before. Though its difficult to prove this!
O2 has spent far too much time on that O2 Active rubbish - does *anyone* actually use this [email protected]?? - and not enough time integrating/testing the latest versions of CE, drivers, and third party apps.
I'll add more to this as I find new bugs, and send it all off to O2 in a couple of weeks.
What I am now using
------------------------
I am now using v1.31.139 + Bluetooth build 3900 + PhotoContacts 1.20 + Java build 1004.
----------------------------
Additions: 1/3/05
- SMS notify no longer seems to work. Anyone else suffer from this? MMS notify works fine and SMS notify is switched on. Perhaps the notify event is missing, but I have no idea how to sort this.
- VPN over wireless lan is still not possible - it tries and fails to connect. VPN over GPRS still works OK.
Additions 02/03/05
- SMS Notify problem is *not* to do with the rom update. I removed the registry key: HKLM\software\microsoft\inbox\svc\outlook since I had no need for the outlook folder in inbox. Removing this also kills off SMS notify!! I backed up, hard reset, preventing the stuff in the extended rom from installing. Installed PHM regedit, exported the outlook key, restored my backup and imported the reg key!!
- Internet/Work settings missing from Wlan setup. After restoring the backup, these had returned. Pretty strange, perhaps they were linked to the same registry key. No additional software bar the contents of the extended rom had been installed. If anyone else gets this, I suggest back, hard reset, restore might fix it.
Regards
Nigel
I have the same version with the latest radio build and cannot got the device to connect to my home Wifi what so ever.
Not exactly much use. It detects the network but refuses to connect. Either it says its connected but does not get an IP or it continously prompts for the network key.
I have also upgraded and am finding that the device often freezes when I try and switch it off, this happens about once or twice a day needing a soft reset.
I dont use the active stuff (which I never use) and am dissapointed that the O2 icon now starts O2 active rather than list the state of connections and allow you to trun them off i.e GPRS.
I agree the device does seem to be slower, I think I will be going back to the original code base and applying the BT patches, anyone know where there is a CAB installer for 3900?
check the ftp server
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/BlueAngel/CAB_Files/Bluetooth Upgrades/
username xda
password xda
its the file that ends in 3900.
I installed 3900 over the recent O2 update (3500) and all went fine. Just do a soft reset before playing with bluetooth or it will moan about an expired stack.
Nigel
SMS Notify
Hi
Anyone else found that the SMS notify stops working once the latest O2 update is installed. MMS notify works, but SMS does not - its damned anoying!
UPDATE: Found the reason for this see end of original post
Nigel
Thanks for the comments on the update. I think I will stay with the original 1.12 ROM! Where can you get the other updates for the Camera and Java and Bluetooth etc? I'm currently running Bluetooth 3500.
Cheers
This is why you should sell you XDA IIs on ebay and buy a XDA IIi :lol:
Well that IS a concept! Thanks made me grin!
Hi since I installed the new Rom, my clock keep on freezing. The phone goes on standby > then it freeze. If I wake up the phone , it will still be frozen.
I have to click on start > Today in order to refresh it. :evil:
Any ideas ? It's still happening with no other today pluggin. :x
Would you recommend we dont bother upgrading the ROM atm then?
I upgraded also - the process was simple and took around 10 mins. This made my Bluetooth much more reliable and over a greater distance. I also find the 2s locks up frequently and requires soft resets.
Does anybody know how to remove the entire o2 software - I dont know anybody that uses it and Im sure it would speed up the whole device.
Remove entire O2 software:
You mean everything in the extended rom or just o2 active?
Hard reset, and when the message pops up about installing blah in 3 seconds (after you have done the touchscreen config) then soft reset. This gets you a plain vanilla HTC Blue Angel before the operator has installed its sh1te on it.
You can then selectively install just the bits you want, download the extended rom from the ftp site here, or unlock yr extended rom, copy out the cabs to main memory/SD etc, and then tap just the ones you want to install them.
If you just want rid of o2 active, then hard reset, and wait until the corporate/personal? message appears and then soft reset. O2 active is the last thing to be installed.
Nigel
mhanbury:
Hunt them down on the FTP site. Compare the version/build numbers with those in the new O2 extended rom.

Hard-reset your xda.
When the Personal/Corporate screen comes up, select corporate and enter 0506 - zero five zero six
This won't install active.

ExtROM Version: 1.31.139 WWE
Ive had mine for 2 days now and ive had to soft reset about 6 times! and Hard reset once!
and this is annoying the hell out of me! can anyone tell me what im doing wrong. Why is it that whenever I do a hard reset I have to change the name of my activesync folder? If I try to keep them the same, it says I cant because there is already a device with that name!?!? :twisted: Or am I just being a noob?

This is really wierd. My IIs works fine - doesn't lock up, doesn't need hard resets or anything so drastic. I don't have any other apps on the device though, just the standard one's O2 supplies (GPRS Monitor etc).
What other apps are people running? I'm guessing Today screen plugins are causing grief (Pocket+ etc)
yeah I did tried my phone with no today plug in but it is still crap, was working just fine with the previous rom......... what have I done :x
At least it keeps me busy....
The problem is you should have bought a XDA IIi not a XDA IIs.

How can I Sovle it??
Thx ~~
First thing I'd do is ugrade to the latest ROM - you are still using the older one. If you still have problems after that it may be worth going from BT3500 to 3900.
If you don't know how to do either of the above have a little search around the forum. The new ROM is on the O2 site and there are numerous postings about the 3500 to 3900 upgrade all over this forum.

Don't bother. I have 3900 on my IIs and it still does the same thing.
Thanks for rakh1 and kevinnugent reply~~
In fact ,I tried to downlaod and upgrade the newest ROM form the O2 website ! but my O2IIs is not buy in UK ! so....
In the mean time ,I"m also "cooked" (crack?!.. I don't understand what difference on "cooked" and "crack",haha~) the ROM by the "XDA3nbtool",but have the error message on installation ,that show "Radio image file checksum Error ",when I replace the original radio image,that will show the other image file checksum error.....
And I contact the O2 Custom Center in HK ,but they ask me to contact the Singapore customer service ,and said "they just have a repair service only!they haven't technical support ! "
OMG!! haha...a sick joke !! :lol: :lol:
Finally,the Singapore Custom Center still haven't the solution about this problem !... they just send the "bluetooth BT3500 update patch " for me to try (haha!!...) it can solve this problem or not !!
I have the same problem about BT disconnection
I posted an item about the same problem two days ago...
And the "official" technical support did the same to me: send me the 3500 BT Stack (and I found it in the web and installed two weeks before. Great technical support!).
In fact it's frustrating: I need a car kit that works well for my job, but impossible with Qtek. So, if I want to have a hands free car kit...I must buy another phone?.
Incredible for an expensive machine like Qtek 9090.
I have'nt tryed for the sort of multiple patchs of 3900, but I have no faith in it.
I you find a solution, please let me know.
Good luck!.

Hey ~I have the solution now?!~and I tried it a whole day~any problem!
Firstly You must stop the "Auto Power Off" Function on the O2IIs,then go to:
http://www.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=14621
to download the "screenlock" (software) and install it ,after the installation ,you will not have the icon on the “Program file “ (haha…may be the software bug),than go to “file exploroe” ->”My Device”->”Program files”->”screenLock”->”screenlock.exe”,When you run it the first time it will be create the icon on “program file”,If you want to leave it, press the button 1 and 4 (Calendar and Message button on the IIs) simultaneously! Now !the Bluetooth will be connected every time ~
but I still hoped the O2IIs announce the newest rom update for the Asia user soon……..
By the way, when updated the BT3500 ,the “auto resume” problem will be solve or not ??because I’m updated to BT 3900 still no change…..
Thx
Cangratulations Alextly!
ScreenLock works fine, and although this is like killing flyes with a bazooka, it's the only solution that I know about it, and this convert this solution in the better one.
The only question I've got now it's about power consumption. This program Locks (turns down) the screen but, if I understood well, with the screen locked the CPU is sitill gorking "underground", so the battery life can be reduced (I must do some proves).
As far as I know, the BT3500 doesn't solve the problem (I installed and it's the same). I ignore if the 3900 it does, but I'm afraid that it will not. I have not installed because the 3900 I've fount it's some sort of different patches that and they doesn't seem to be very reliable. So I prefer to wait for official Patche. And as says "kevinnugent" seems not to work.
Let's keep the faith for official technical service (my faith it's going down for minutes).
Thanks for you're finding and congratulations. I would never find this one.

ScrrenLock
ScreenLock it's not as fantastic as I though: it shuts down the PDA automatically when you are in no-battery mode (for exemple when you're using TOMTOM), and increase battery consumption dramatically.

Interesting... I don't seem to have the same symptoms with my SX66 paired with my SE HBH-300 and HCB-30 (car kit). When the SX66 goes into standby, the BT seems to stay connected. If it does disconect with either handsfree, I just press the call pick-up on the handsfree and it re-establishes the BT connection within 2-3 seconds.
I'm using 3900.

In fact I think the connection must not be disconnected. And with my Qtek if you have good luck and re-establish the in some way, maybe you will hear nothing...
My car kit it's Drive Blue from Parrot.

I have spent every nights of the last month to find a solution to the bluetooth problem (it turns off when the device turns on, so the headset is unusable) and.... I GOT IT!
This is a test version. I publish it so I can receive some feedbacks. If these will be positive, I'll release a definitive version.
How to install:
Copy the new bthuart.dll in a temporary location (where you want, but NOT in Windows)
Turn off the bluetooth
Remove the device from cradle
Make a soft reset
Move/copy the new bthuart.dll in the “\WINDOWS” directory overwriting the original
Turn on the bluetooth
Connect the headset
Enjoy!
NOTE: if you receive a message that is not possible to overwrite the file, try to repeat the steps above again.
Try to turn off and on the device as many times you want, the headset must stay connected.
There's a drawback with this solution:
When the bluetooth is on, the device turns on after a random time. Now that the BT is always on, the device resumes many times in a day. To prevent an excessive battery consumption, modify the options to turn off the backlight and the power as soon as possible. Consider to lock the device when not used with the “Device lock” today's plugin.
I have tested it with TuMa 1.3, but should work with every WM05 version.
If anyone is interested in technical details, let me know and I'll post a detailed description here (or would be better a Wiki page?)
[EDIT 2006/06/02] Scroll down in this page and download the CAB made by Tuatara.
I guess I'll be the first to try. I'll let you know how it does. Also can you post more tech info about what you found and how you went and changed?

BT Finally fixed - See new post
Firstly we have to be clear on turning off blue tooth. You need the red line through the icon so after a soft reset the blue tooth does not turn back on.
Secondly I found no matter what I tried, I could not overwrite the DLL on the unit itself. However, After turning off the BT properly as described above and resetting the PDA, I was able to copy the new version over the top of the old one by exploring the device from explorer in active sync while in the cradle. And yes it does actually appear to work! The blue tooth no longer turns off.
I am also using Tuma 1.3 currently on an XDA iis. It would be great if Tuatara could encorporate this file into 1.5 due out soon.
I will place a copy of this post with a copy of the file in the 1.3 forum. I hope you don't mind.
Regards,
Simon

BigMike has been working on this for WEEKS now, and has been communicating with me about this. In truth I was actually hoping to have v1.5 done, so that BigMike could incorporate it into v1.5, and all of his hard work would be the HIGHLIGHT of the ROM release!
BigMike deserves ALL the credit for this!
And absolutely ... it will be in TuMa v1.5! I'll also be working on the power management related issues - to keep the power drain in the device as low as possible. This may mean little 'tweaks' like the backlight might take a moment to come on when the unit rings, or other 'small' details, but I'll see what can be done and let you know the results.
I'll be testing this as well tonight!
I haven't had a chance to test this, but here's a CAB file installer which should avoid the issues of stopping/locking/copying the file. It may ask you to reboot your device to complete the copy instead.
Let me know if this works! Again, all kudos to bigmike for this!!!
Italians do it better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol: :lol: (i'm italian so i'm joking)
Great Bigmike finally my BA it's the best choice......
I'm really happy now. Really thanks to everybody...... that works for our BA..... really really thanks.
thanks a lot, let me try it with tuma1.4
I installed the cab posted by Tuatara and it works fine. Using v1.3. Thanks bigmike and Tuatara.
Grazie
Grandissimo!!!
Thanks a lot!
Hi,
congratulations to BigMike and all developers here!!!!
I just don't konw how is it about other ROMs? I have Ivans v4 r2.1 and I don't know how is BT made in this ROM - is it same as TuMa? Is this patch usable for Ivans ROM?
Maybe stupid question but I really don't know
Thank you, Martin
ps: what about TuMa 1.5??? Will it be as fast as Ivan's? Sorry for that question - I did not try any TuMa ROM - I just read somewhere here, that Ivan's ROM is faster.. I did not try it..
Will it be easy to "upgrade" to TuMa 1.5 from Ivan's?
Also working on TuMa 1.4. Thanks!!
now if I could just get sddialer to actually launch when I press BT headset button =(. the phone app starts instead, even though reg path points to sddialer.exe

It's only usable on the Microsoft Stack based ROM from Ivan (the older ones I believe, and on the Original mamaich BA which Ivan's is based on), NOT on the newer ROMs which have the Widcomm stack. Installing the CAB file on that ROM will have no effect. It should also be entirely usable on ANY TuMa version from 1.0 to 1.4 without issue.

TuMa v1.4 is as fast (probably faster in the long run, since it won't suffer from slowdown with continued use). This same performance will be applied to TuMa v1.5, although I've made the filesystem more robust, since there have been a few cases of lost data with v1.4's speed tweaks.
Speed is NOT the primary concern of the TuMa v1.5 ROM ... for this and all previous ROMs (barring maybe v1.4), the focus has ALWAYS been on stability over performance. But I think we've got BOTH features now, and with Bigmike's BT Fix, we're going to be getting close to that 'PERFECT ROM'.
Again ... 3 cheers for Bigmike!
THANK YOU BIGMIKE! One of the biggest issues is solved....... (now tle laggy hw keyboard remains )
I just want to say thanks to bigmike for hes good job
Fantastic job ... works a treat on TuMa 1.3. As an added bonus, it seems to have cured my battery draining problem as well?! Anyone else noticed this?
Worked perfect :lol:BIGMIKE THNKS
Hi,
Where can I get this new .dll from?
Thanks
