Unofficial Bluetooth Stack "Upgrade" For iMate PDA

Check out this link from PocketPCThoughts.com for a new Bluetooth patch from Broadcom for the PDA2K...
Fellow MVP Helio Diamant, of Pocket PC Freak, has gotten a fantastic little nugget for iMate PDA2k owners:
Quote:
A friend of mine has just come back from CES and brought with him a little CAB file that was being given by the guys from Broadcom there. They told him we can publish and offer for download, so I am putting it here to you guys too.
When installed, this CAB adds the following profiles to the Broadcom BT stack in the PDA2K:
1. High-Quality Audio
2. Keyboard
This means that those of you holding stereo headsets can now connect them to PDA2k and here music, navigation instructions, etc from the device. As well, Bluetooth Keyboards are supposed to work well.
Early reports suggest it works with a number of devices, including both HTC Blue Angel and HTC Harrier units; it might work with other Broadcom-based (i.e., Widcomm) Bluetooth units, but there's no guarantee. If you're interested in playing "with it, you can download the CAB here. Note: This update is unofficial and unsupported; install it at your own risk, and do a backup first! As far as I know, it's a RAM update, but I haven't tried it. Good luck if you do. "

Noviur,
On which device did you try ? i-Mate PDA2k?
cheers,
bins

install seems not to work
Just tried the cab install (both from my SD card and Program Files location - after resets), but nothing seems to have changed on my i-Mate PDA2k with Rom 1.22.162 WWE.
1. No BT Services were added (still only File Transfer, InformationExchange, Serial Port, Personal Network Server, Dial-up BNetworking Server, Hands-Free),
2. No update seems to have happened, all module versions remained at 1.0.0.3500 (except obviously the BTPluginManagerCE.exe [1.0.0.1]),
3. Despite the dialog box telling it is "writing information for Remove Programs" it can not be found back in the Remove Programs.
Any clues?
cheers,
bins
P.S. Just in case, and like Noviur, reverted with Sprite Backup

The version information in the package suggests 1.6.0.0600
did you install the 1.6.0.0600 upgrade before u installed this?

i installed it.. the new 2 profiles show up but the audio one doesnt work ..
i have pda2k
any help???

I installed the new patch on an SX-66. It doesn't upgrade the Bluetooth stack or provide new services. But it does add 2 new profiles. One for a Stereo audio headset (this won't work with a Hands free device since the profile doesn't include support for a MIC.) and one for a keyboard.
I also switched my Bluetooth stack to the 1.6 version posted here. This seems to be a stack based on Widcom as opposed to Microsoft. Although my device worked and seemed to pair faster my Handsfree device didn't come on when dialing the phone. So I switched back.

Remco, thx, installed the Broadcom 1.6.0.600 cab-file first and afterwards installed the PDA2k cab-file.
Update seems to have worked and indeed have the two new client profiles.
Will check in the store tomorrow if the HQ audio works indeed and if no other nuisances arise.
Will keep you in the loop.
cheers,
bins

Installed it on my Qtek9090 with rom 1.22.00/1.06.00/1337.38/1.22.556
I was able to bond my Logitech DiNovo keyboard to the PDA and use it !
It works very well, very cool to be able to type on a full size keyboard on your PDA.
I don't own a BT audio headset, so i wasn't able to test that.
All other devices like my GPS mouse, Bluetrek G2 headset etc. seem to work ok as they did before.

nop, it was I-Mate PPC. I new it is for PDA2K, but wanted to try it
Previously I installed Widcom BT 1.6.
No luck for me ... for now at least

Did it answer calls through the b/t headset? Mine wouldn't connect to the headset for outgoing or incoming calls. Also if it does work,which PDA2K cab did you use?
Thanks

(the download URL does not work)

hi,

and that there is of the option of the BT dial up modem??
for when they will troubleshoot this.
greetings

Here's the file
I tried it on my HTC Himalaya. It wouldn't play any sound, not even callers voice. I had to hard reset the unit.
Good luck

Hi,
I just got my HP bluetooth headphones... and I absolutely love them!!!. The range is ok... not great, but enough to be considered fully usable. It crackles if there is some physical resistance between the MDAIII and the headphones, but other than that, they are awesome...
Anyone that is considering to get them, I highly recommend it. But be sure to have a 3500 bluetooth stack (with the extensions posted here of course) and Radio 1.06.02 (I am not sure whether 00 would do equally, but I recommend 02).
Treo

Me too. Can someone email me a copy of this file?

Thanks!

XDA2i - bluetooth stuff - newbie question

Greetings folks ....as regards fiddling around with ROMs etc... I'm a total newbie at this ... but am willing to give it a shot ..... however am also in the lucky position of having an XDA2 and (recently upgraded to) XDA2i ....
Got a bluetooth fit in the car (AUDI UHV9649) which does nothing with the XDA2 (old MS BT stack so no handsfree :-( ) but does work with the XDA2i (Widcomm 1.0.0 build3900) ... for 3 minutes at a time .... but it then disconnects and reconnects EVERY 3 minutes ..... and doesnt do the SIM Access Profile ..... any ideas ?
So, this niggling problem has prompted me to see if there are newer and better BT setups out there that I can apply to the XDA2 and XDA2i ...
Hence my lurking on the forum ... and now 'coming out' !
From what I have gleaned from 3 days perusing the forums ......
There is a ROM upgrade to the XDA2i, but what improvements (if any) does this ROM1.11.162 Radio1.03 give over the ROM1.10.00 Radio1.0.0 - and is there better bluetooth functionality/stability ? What BT version is on this ?
------
Also see that there is a patched WM2005 fit for the XDA2 on buzznet (Buzz Lightyear you have my respect sir 8) ) .......
How stable is this ? And can anyone say what BT version is on that ?
Appreciate any answers and look forward to starting to get my hands dirty ....

XDAIIi (Alpine) - Bluetooth Stack upgrade - how to?
Hi Captain
I see your post is getting old, but it's my first day lurking the forum and so far I haven't been able to work out how to upgrade my Bluetooth stack... Have you had any luck?
I need to upgrade mine for different reason - I've just bought AnyCom BSH-100 Bluetooth Stereo Headset fooling my self that I will be able to use the headset for listening to mp3 music etc. as well as handsfree, but as it turns out the XDAIIi does not fully support the Advance Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) required to listen to high quality audio...
Even more confusing the spec on the O2 web site states that the XDAIIi supports A2DP.
Please anyone! How to upgrade the bluetooth stack? I would do it even to a hacked version that works with that headset....
Please share your experience...
Thanks!
On my device I have Bluetooth version 1.0.0 Build 3900 from Broadcom!

Extra bluetooth profiles for XDA2i (Alpine)
Hi,
I downloaded the following:
ftp://xda:[email protected] 3500/Broadcom Corporation BT-PPC AV.cab
And installed it on my XDA2i and all was well (I copied the cab file to my XDA and ran it from there)
Adds a few extra profiles to your bluetooth manager including "High quality audio"
Hope that helps! (Works for my Motorola HT820 headphones)
Out of interest where abouts does it mention A2DP on O2's website?, I'd love to be able to quote it back to them in an argument I'm currently having with them

Hi,
BIG THANX for the spot on info! This is exactly what I'm looking for I hope it should work for me too...
Can you confirm you've just installed this CAB on top of your existing Bluetooth software that comes with the XDAIIi (mine is Broadcom version 1.0.0 Build 3900)?
I was planning to buy the Motorola HT820, but I impulsively bought AnyCom BSH-100 because it's foldable... At least I can swap it now for Motorola if I can't get mine to work with this update!
A2DP on O2's website
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes I initially read about it here on these forums, but I didn't bookmark the thread. It was on the O2's web site I checked. Now I tried searching but couldn't find the thread... As far as I remember it was on www.my-xda.com
It is not on the web site anymore it appears they have taken it off, because people already had our problem and quoted the A2DP support...
Anyway, what's more interesting is that I spoke to O2 Data Support today again. The guy seemed quite apologetic and could not give me any resolution or promise future updates. What's more important he pointed me to these forums (XDA-Developers) for not supported solution to my problem. He confirmed that I can have A2DP support but refused to email me info because it is not officially supported by O2!
I'll post again with the result of this update I hope it makes my XDAIIi compatible with the AnyCom BSH-100 Bluetooth Stereo Headset I bought, by adding the Advanced Audio Distribution Profile.

BINGO! It works like a dream!
I can't believe it... As you said all I had to do is run this BT update (CAB file) and there it is - The A2DP was available in the Bluetooth Connection Wizard in Bluetooth Manager! I didn't even have to pair the headset again (after the install - I did soft reset just to stay on the safe side prior running BT Manager). I just run the wizard again with High Quality Audio selected it listed my headset (AnyCom BSH-100 Bluetooth Stereo Headset) now I have 2 shortcuts on My Shortcuts tab one is Hands-free and the other High Quality Audio!
The install hasn't changed the BT stack version on my device - it appears the only visible effect is the extra profile to support A2DP.
Now I can listen to mp3 and watch movies, be on skype and of cause use it as hands-free too - ALL this on my XDAIIi
So far I'm very happy with the headset - it does everything it says on the box!

Exactly that just ran the cab file on the phone over the top of the standard O2 rom (bluetooth stack 3900).
The only part that doesn't work from the HT820 is the remote control functions for media player (meant to be able to do next/previous track play/pause) but sound quality is perfect (seems to drop a fraction on a second silence in every so often but there doesn't seem to be any pattern to it so don't know if its the headphones the xda or just bluetooth.

dear members
I downloaded the cab file in my M500 but that dont work.Infact my homescreen is not readeble any more (hard reset?).
Is there no other way to make it possible to use my bt headset with my m500?
thanx for replyíng.and sorry if this question is frequently asked?
Sjon

Yes hard reset will restore your original install you may also try a backup if you have one.
Please note this update will work if the Bluetooth stack on your device is from Broadcom. I think the M500 may have the Microsoft one...
see also this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=30192&highlight=a2dp+bt
From experience this update works for the Broadcom BT stack.
I hope this helps...

Thank you.
I've read the post...I see now that there is no solution for my problem
Once again i was to fast for installing before reading.
best regards sjon

I can confirm everything you say applies to my AnyCom BSH-100 headset too - remote functions do not work, I also experience the same brief drop of sound! I tried with ecrypted and non encrypted connection to the headset to make sure it's not the excyption that is causing the problem. Also tried different players - no luck. Must be the bluetooth implementation
Please let us know if you manage to resolve this problem!
Thanks

Yesterday I applied the same Bluetooth update to add A2DP support to MDAIII as sold from T-mobile UK!
I did experience the same problem with Todays screen! This is not a problem at all - Todays screen gets messed up because it appears that the install interferes with the current Theme!
All you have to do to fix it is reapply your existing Theme from Start --> Settings --> Today --> Select a theme for your device --> OK
Apart from this this update does add the following two Bluetooth profiles:
High Quality Audio
Bluetooth Keyboard
You can try again - No need for hard reset to restore your Todays Screen

Please note this is FTP (not HTTP :wink: ) link! You can use any FTP client to connect to the ftp host/server: ftp.xda-developers.com with user name and password xda then you browse to the directory (you can see the path in the link above) where the cab file is and download it!
Possible reason why the link may not work for you is because you are behind firewall where the FTP protocol is blocked! Also make sure you are ising Internet Explorer when clicking on the link. Interenet Explorer can work as ftp client when the link is in the above format and FTP protocol is not blocked by a firewall...
I hope that helps!

Blue Angel - A2DP Bluetooth

Hi all
I have got Blue Angel:
ROM: 1.42.00 WWE
Radio: 1.13.00
BT: 3900
Last week I upgraded to the T-Movbile 1.42 Rom. I then installed the A2DP profile patch and was amazed that my Omiz OMS600 headphones were actually working using the high quality audio profile, and they were working very well.
The other day I did a hard reset to sort out a few things and left it at that. Later on when I came to reinstall my A2DP it wasn't working, nor was using the headphones as just a normal headset. I tried all sorts, including downgrading my ROM because at that point I was wondering whether or not it was actually on a previous version that I had it working.
Anyway... eventually I decided it was the headphones that had an error so emailed Omiz who were very helpful and sent me the download for their firmware flashing utility. This upgraded the ROM of my headphones from 1.06 to 1.25. I can now pair my headphones as a headset but not as High Quality Audio. I can get it to add a High Quality Audio shortcut in BT manager but when it trys to connect it says: "connection failed". Before it was also saying "service unavailable on device" or somthing similar.
Any assistance would be good.
Thanks a lot.

A2DP & WM5
Hi there,
I got the patch from: ftp://xda:[email protected] Upgrades/BT profiles for build 3500/
But I'm not sure if it will work on WM5, I think I have read that it will not, this is my main reason for not moving to WM5 yet... although at the moment while i can't get A2DP working I am not much better off.
How are you finding WM5? Is it reliable enough to compete with WM2003 yet, or is there still a bit of work needed?

It doesn't work under WM5. WM5 has a Microsoft bluetooth stack, this patch does not apply.
WM5 on the BA is quite stable if you have the time to work with it. I am not going back. If somebody comes up with a BT fix for the stand-by problem that does not drain the battery, all of my issues will be fixed.

A2DP on WM5
Thanks for that... I might consider upgrading one evening when I have nothing better to do!
Do you rekon we'll ever see A2DP on the MS bluetooth stack?

Yeah I think so. Apparently it's not out in the wild yet, but w/ BT 1.2, a lot of people will be looking to do more with it.

Did you mean: "the mamaich rom has microsoft bluetooth stack". I really hope we can get WM5 with the same stack I had on w2003. (Broadcom, I think). Maybe it is out there but I can't see it...

I agree. By the moment, I'm very pleased with the performance of WM5 on my BA. It actually runs faster than w2003! And I'm beeing very objective, believe me!
I'm having a big annoyance with writting (sms, word, etc) as the spelling isn't allways what I wrote. On the SMS window, it seems the screen gets redrawn all the time and it loose some words...
The other big is not having A2DP. I think is very frustrating having such a nice machine without a good software that makes all its goodness work! :?
Some delayings on the screen repainting and (I'm using Pocket Informant) slow performance on the everyday tasks as opening the contacts list, or changing toanother program, for example...

looking 4 answers: ad2p & bluetooth & wm5
somebody with an answer to this theme?
WAS: ad2p & bluetooth & wm5
It is somehow possible?
Anybody there? :roll:

Answer is no, not possible yet.
And to the poster above - yes, just need the bluetooth connect issue solved where it drops connection when it goes into stand-by mode. The fix that drains the battery by keeping the unit out of standby mode really isn't a fix for me.
Not that I am complaining - I'm happy to be an early adopter along for the ride..

How do I enable A2DP on my BA??
Hello!!
I have searched the forum many many times and visited wiki, but I could only find 2 threads which is close to what I need to know. This is 1 of them.
I have got Blue Angel:
ROM: 1.40.00 WWE
Radio: 1.12.00
BT: 3900
This configuration came from the recently rom upgrade from o2.
It seems to me that it's possible to enable A2DP on a BA running on WM2003 SE, which allows me to stream music to a bt headphones??
However I just could not find a thread which has an instruction on how to do it. Not even on wiki. After reading some threads, I came to my own conclusion that I need to upgrade me BT to build 3900 and install a patch??
So this was what I did,
Since my BT is already 3900 "offical" version, thus I didn't do anything to it.
I d/l this file BA_OEM_AudioGW (1.33g.00).CAB (83KB) and ran it on my PPC. I then got the audiogw.dll in my windows folder.
That was all I did. It didn't work of course. I have another file, BroadcomCorp_BT1.0.0.3900.cab but didn't use it as I'm already on 3900??
So I was just hoping that someone who has done it and was successful, could point me in the right direction!!! Thanks a lot!!!

anyone tried running both cab loacted at
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/BlueAn...age BT 1.0.0.3900 and audiogw.dll - 1.33g.00/
if it works, do let me know. I currently do not have a bluetooth headphones to test with.

I have Omiz headset (with MP3 and radio FM) and due to work with my Magician I had to manually change some registry entries. Point was that my PDA was not correctly identified as a A2DP device (only HF). I paired my PDA with normal BT dongle with A2DP profile, found registry entries with dongle mac adress and copied manually keys coressponding with a2dp service to folder with my headphones profiles. After all that it was possible to chose headphopnes in BT menager as stereo audio receiver.
Maybe its similar and u should look in registry...

jarekt, can you post those registryvalues please?!

Can't get streaming audio to BT headphones
I still have had no luck with the BA_OEM_AudioGW (1.33g 00) Cab or any registry settings under WM5.

BT a2dp WM5
have you tried the file (.cab) i uploaded in BlueAngel under uploads, it let me pair BT Stereo under wm5. Nevermind I looked someone deleted it dont know why. PM me and i can send if you want, I tried to reupload but Uploads appears broken.

I am on thesame situation of errorist.
My machine is on Broadcom 3900, and I want to make A2DP work.
If anyone can shed a light on how to make it work, I'd be very very grateful.
BTW, I have a Motorola HT820.
UPDATE:
I have installed the 3900 stack + audiogw dll even though I had a factory-installed 3900 stack, and I managed to connect in handsfree mode.
I still have not found out how to connect in A2DP mode though...
Any help is appreciated.

Hi All
I dont know how useful this is going to be, but i spent ages doing research to get my ht820 and my 02 xda 2s working properly, and when i did, i wrote a semi bad guide here
http://www.corecodec.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=29&expv=0&topic=2840.0
if its any use i'd be tempted to maybe write it up proper and put in in the wiki, either way, try some of the steps or files ive listed (most of them are from here)
but it gets it working with TCPMP aswell, which is a lot better than WM10 anyhow
good luck

BTW: ivans rom uses the broadcom stack, so the patch may work, however i dont have the headphones to test it with

i've onstalled this two cabs too, but new profile didn't appeared. Bay Be some registry values didn't appied? who did this patch?

Bluetooth stack with A2DP stack

Guys,
Where can i get a bluetooth stack that have A2DP stack on it so that i can use it on my stereo bluetooth headset for audio....

Try this
ftp://xda:[email protected] 3500/Broadcom Corporation BT-PPC AV.cab
In combinbation with bt 1.0.0.3900
ftp://xda:[email protected] Upgrades/BroadcomCorp_BT1.0.0.3900.cab
Works fine on my pda.

I tried the first cab and it broke my today screen! The wallpaper is black behind PocketBreeze and scrambled behind iLauncher. Weird. Soft reset doesn't help.
I already had BT 3900 so I didn't use the second cab.
Oh wait, today screen problem solved! I switched wallpapers and then switched back to the original, it's fine now. I'll submit this post anyway for reference if it happens to someone else.
Anyway, the A2DP profile is there all right, so thanks Vastloper!

thanks. but the link seems not working....

my fault
it works now

I tried the 1st link, but it made no difference.
how to check if I managed to have a2dp profiles on my sx66?

In Bluetooth Manager, select "new connection". There should be a new option in the list called "High quality audio". Use that to connect to your headset.
Did you download the .cab file and run it on your device? You have to download it, copy it to your pocket pc and run it by tapping on it in file manager. If you did all this and still don't have the High quality audio option, I have no idea what could be wrong.
By the way, once you've managed to install the patch: if you have a ROM version with Windows Media Player 10, you may want to read this thread.

It worked perfectly, in my configuration menu, i have the high quality option.

Anyone had trouble actually making an A2DP connection work with these mods?
The A2DP profile is there, and seems to have all the right stuffs, but actually making it connect to my earphones (sony DR-BT20NX) is proving an issue.
Thus far ive only managed a normal HSP hands free style connection.
Such a waste.

Same here:

Nothing but "connection error" (Have'nt tried your HSP connection, though)

Awesome!
Thanks, this worked like a charm although I did have to perform a Hard Reset first. I can now listen to stereo sound through my Oakley O Rokr sunglasses and use my hands-free headset.

I downloaded and installed
ftp://xda:[email protected] 3500/Broadcom Corporation BT-PPC AV.cab
which gives me the High Quality Audio profile. However, I only get sound when playing music through Media Player. All other sounds (system sounds, telephone, sounds from games) are muted. Am I doing anything wrong?

Any help? NEWER - BETTER A2DP update?

ok so i have an htc p4000 and i recently bought a scosche bluetooth receiver kit and i'm able to produce some sound but its not high quality. i checked and my phone does support the A2DP service but it sound like my device is outputting sound for headphones and not normal speakers. i used both the cabs you put on here and they are functioning but it says that my bluetooth is off in it. my dad has an ipaq and the bluetooth manager on his phone seems to pick up my scocshe perfectly and is perfectly able to play. anybody know where i can find that bluetooth manager? thanks for the help if you can help

Put Microsoft Bluetooth Stack back into Touch Pro2?

I'm using a T-Mobile Touch Pro2 which includes the Broadcom Bluetooth stack and Microsoft Voice Command 1.6.2105. The problem is the Bluetooth software is not compatible with Voice Command and I hate it.
Voice Command is unable to announce TTS events via any bluetooth headset despite having the option for that turned on. Also, activating Voice Command via a bluetooth headset button is either very slow, or unstable (doesn't work sometimes).
Has anyone been able to create a Rhodium ROM that uses the normal Microsoft Bluetooth stack, which has been known to actually work with 3rd party programs?

I had this issue and moved to NRG's Genesis 6.5 rom. everything works fine.
I have not seen a 6.1 rom that works tho.

My TMoUS TP2 works perfect with my Motorola S9's when using the MSVC that came on the stock ROM.

Finally someone who has the same problems as I have.
There are also other annoying side effects of this Broadcom stack:
- As we all know the stereo output is nothing compared to for example an IPhone. Therefore I always used WOW SRS as a sound mixer which closed the gap at least to some degree on my Kaiser.
But now with the TP2 and its Broadcom stack as soon as WOW SRS is installed (I know about the different settings and driver versions to get it working, so this is not the cause) the BT stack is only connecting the hands free profile after this and the stereo profile is simply not working any more.
With the old MS stack this was not a problem.
So I'm back to the old crippled stereo output again
- One could imagine using the integrated HTC sound mixer/booster, but here another even more annoying thing comes into play:
The internal sound mixer (and also the FM radio by the way) are not working with BT at all!!!
Both are only working with a cabled headset and I found no way of getting the FM radio sound to the BT headset or using the sound mixer function on BT.
Together with the non working voice command thing this whole BT integration is so dilettantish that I can hardly believe HTC is selling it as a "professional smartphone".
If someone has any workaround for the above things I would highly appreciate it.
And of course if one of the chefs could implement the old MS BT stack in a cooked ROM this would also be a great thing, but I have not seen one so far.
But even if, I can only hope that some HTC people are reading these comments and that HTC is putting some more professionality into this issue and will soon get it together as a working whole and not as this amateurish implemantation it is currently

What Pioneer headunit/Pioneer bluetooth unit are you using?
I have an AVIC-D3 with the Pioneer CD-BTB200 module for bluetooth. I have zero issues making it connect with the CD-BTB200 module. I can make calls, receive calls, play bluetooth stereo, etc. The ONLY issue that I have is that when the phone rings on an incoming call, I only hear the ring through my phone's speaker, not the speakers in my SUV. This was not an issue with the M$ Bluetooth stack, however. Go figure. If I can figure out how to make the phone sounds play through my speakers (yes, I have the send notifications/sounds box checked in the advanced bluetooth properties), everything will work 100%.

I wanted to do this, for my own as well. I think the problem we're facing is... drivers. The phone has a slightly different bt/wifi/radio module, therefore required the broadcom drivers. I'll look into making it work with the MS BT stack though... although I'm not too optimistic.

The worst thing in my opinion is the described fact that the internal FM radio and the equalizer/booster can not be used with any hooked up BT device.
Therefore listening to FM radio with BT headphones is simply not possible.
By the way I think this was also an issue in older models, so I don't think that this is a newly introduced thing with the TP2 and the Broadcom stack.
Does anyone of you guys see a solution for sending the FM radio output to the BT channel?

No, because the cable of the wired headset is used as antenna. even if you manage to fool the radio application to start with the wired headset not connected you won't hear anything but noise.

I am using a JVC deck and it connects great. Sound quality is a bit better than from my Wing; my only problem is that when I disconnect from the call it takes my TP2 2-3 minutes to show that the call is actually ended, it runs slower than molases like I have 50 programs running and all trying to access the internet and downloading large files. After the 2-3 minutes the phone has returned to normal like nothing was wrong. I am thinking of flashing to one of the good looking 6.5 roms that our wonderful chefs have cooked up for us, but I cant decide which one to try first!

The point is that I want to be able to use the wireless BT headset with all the audio sources on the device. This would only be logical.
Having to use the wired headset as antenna is of course the other annoying thing in the hardware design of this device (since I think HTC should also have been able to get FM reception with a built in antenna or even the phone frame. Don't know why they have not done this in order to at least allow using the radio in situations where one has got no headset at hand, especially with the TP2, which has got no 3.5mm jack)
But apart from this issue still the only consequent thing would be to be able to use all audio sources with the attached wireless headset. That's what is it for...

Yes, this first seemed to be an option to me also, but on my TP2 if I open the btfm.exe I get absolutely no sound, no matter which speaker setting in the software. Not on the wired headphone, not on the internal speaker and also not on the BT headset, even though it is successfully attached with the stereo profile.
Have tried this with several ROMs, always the same problem: No output at all.
And on some it even won't start (error message Unable to extract skin template)
But since HTC has included this exe in the ROM but has not put a link in the start menu I think they know about this lack of functionality, but have not solved it.
Does anyone know more about btfm.exe and a way to get it working?

Hi Guys,
That is my first real complaint I have about the Touch Pro2 !

Hi everyone, I have a similar question related to the Microsoft bluetooth stack. I have an ATT Tilt2 (stock ROM still) and have downloaded the Office 2010 beta programs from the Marketplace. A new feature (at least I think it is new) is the Presentation Companion for PowerPoint which allows you to control a PowerPoint presentation using your phone.
When I try to set up the Presentation Companion, however, it gives me a message about not being able to find any bluetooth devices. The instructions from Microsoft say that you must have the Microsoft bluetooth stack installed on the phone and the computer you want to control to get this functionality. I never get to the point of connecting to my computer so I figure it must be the phone.
Has anyone else had similar issues or tried the Presentation Companion? I tried applying the .CAB update listed earlier in this thread but it did not help.
On a side note, with the stock bluetooth stack I have had no issues connecting to my Pioneer headunit in my car for hands-free and A2DP stereo streaming. I have not tried to use the controls from my radio to control the playback, so I'n not sure if that works. The headunit I'm using is the DEH-710BT.
Thanks!

I have a Pioneer AVIC-D3 and have no issues with playback (or the controls) using the BT stack in the Rhodium. This, of course, was tested with Windows Media Player. I can do forward, reverse, pause, stop, play, etc.
