BT GPS (tomtom 5.21) and BT headset problem - PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General

Hi all,
first wanted to say that it is a great forum.
I just came across it couple days ago, and there has been many things that I found here that improved my Qtek 2020i.
but there is one thing that i havent found in here.
I use tomtom 5.21 with a bluetooth GPS receiver. it worked fine until I bought a bluetooth headset. If im using TT to navigate and answer a call via bluetooth headset it works fine, but when i hung up the call, then Qtek looses connection to GPS, then picks it up again in about 10 seconds but runs with a big delay. I have to restart tomtom and then it is back to normal (quite annoying when driving thru town)
any of you have that problem??
thanks for help.

Hi there,
My problem might be related : the device seems unable to use both the headset and the GPS (with TT) at the same time. I don't know why. I've got a Qtek ROM at the moment, I'll see if the latest O2 ROM with upgraded radio stack does any good.
See you.

Right. Just switched to PUG's .162 ROM with O2 stuff stripped.
Alas, it comes with Broadcom stack and there's no SPP inside so I can't connect to my GPS ... Pug if you read this, help
Cheers !

seems strange: I replashed my stock O2 bloatware & buggy 169 Rom with pug's flavour, to give me the 162 rom and Radio version 1.04.
My GPS bonds fine tihe BT, and I can use TomTOm and a BT headset at the same time. Did you flash the Radio to the (far better) 1.04) when you upgraded the Rom?
I've heard quite a few people say on these forums that for Alpine, one of the most stable & speedy setups is the 1.10 WWE Main Rom, the .162 Pug rom with the O2 stuff stripped out, and the 1.04 Radio.
Joe

Yeah actually it works fine now. I made another post while I was looking for help, because the Alpine wouldn't find the SPP service when interrogating the GPS. I simply switched the GPS off and back on, and the problem was gone. I wish I'd tried that before the dozen ROM combinations I spent the afternoon testing
And indeed, I'm now running 1.11WWE/1.04.00/1.11.162 PUGS w/o O2 stuff, and finally TT accepts to work with the headset while using the GPS. What a trip !
Cheers !

Imate Rom BT Stack version

I am struggling to use my SonyEricsson HBH 35 Headset with my Tmobile MDAIII. But after a while the BT Stack stops working and I have to turn BT on and off to be able to use the headset again. Tmobile Service Line told me that they are aware of the problem and they will post a fix for that but no time frame was giving. Therefore I was wondering whether the latest Imate PDA2k Rom was having the same BT problems. Which version of BT stack is on this rom? Is it possible to copy the necessary files onto the MDA III and make it work with the never version?
PDA2K has the same issues with the BT Stack. In fcat it is just awful.

BT version... MDA III new ROM
I would like to know which version of the BT you guys have = which is most current for MDA III. To verify this go to settings/connection/bluetooth an check in About .
I have heard some news that ROM 1.20 is being tested internally, and somebody promised me to provide it to me. I am really waiting.. as current one keeps turning on device every minute...
have a hcb-30 bluetooth carkit that worked great with my Qtek 2020, but i cannot seem to get it to work with my qtek 9090....it finds the qtek allright and pairs with it, but cannot connect....my bluetooth version is 1.0.0 build 2200...
hope they get a fix out soon...

You may tried that DON'T PAIR the HBH35, Afterwards, use a Bluetooth connection wizard to add it. This may be OK to add HBH35.
I don't know how those incompetent idiots could release the blueangel with such a obvious bluetooth problem, HOW CAN THEY NOT see it! the error messeges pops up so frequently.
Go for it, version 1.5

I couldnt get 1.5 to work on my pda2k, cant overwrite certain files... how did you do it?
I didn't do it as i don't have a BT headset yet. because of these treads I'm waiting before i get the headset, gps, and keyboard for bluetooth

you don't have it yet and you are telling other people to go for it! i dont think it works for the pda2k
Did you read or post first?????????????????
As you can see Guest and firebird say it worked to some degree for them on the PDA2K (MDAIII). Since I didn't have a BT headset to try myself I thought I would help you by pointing you to someone who had.
Read posts before blasting back.

Subject: BlueTooth manually updated on PDA2k to 1.5.081

http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=11729&highlight=widcomm
Since I didn't see in any thread about someone updating their PDA2k to the latest widcomm drivers... Just an FYI, I copied the files from the other thread onto my PDA2k. Seems to be working. Will test further to see if I'm still getting memory issues like before.
NOTE - I used Resco to copy the files over. There were several warnings that I was updating a file in ROM.. but I went ahead and did that anyway...figured I could hard reset the device if need be.
just a warning, the ROM files he was talking about overwriting, cannot be restored by doing a hard reset, it is permanent. if it messes up you will have to re-flash your pda with a new copy of the OS. that's what i had to do since i couldnt get it to work

O2 XDA IIi Bluetooth with Bluetooth Car Kit Issues.

Hi Guys,
Recent got an XDA IIi after being with the older XDA II for over 16 Months.
But I have recently run into problems with my BT Car kit :
Motorola Bluetooth Car Kit HFW-8000.
Basically the problem is that it does not always connect to the Car Kit and when it does it will only from time to time connect and let me have a handfree conversation.
I have also used the Broadcom Bluetooth Cab file here in order to extend what Bluetooth Profiles that can be used but seems not to have any great bearing to stablize the issue.
So I went down the Hard Reset Road but again still intermittent issues, I then upgraded the ROM to the New one on the O2 Website the v 1.11.169 ROM.
I also had similar issues with the XDA II but it was resolved by using the Pocket Bluetooth tools, which was great and never once after installing it did I have any issues with the Car Kit.
http://www.bluetooth.jazztel.es/
One of my questions is, is there a similar programme to to above Pocket Bluetooth tools for the XDA IIi as I have tried it with the XDA IIi but does not work.
Or does anyone know how you would revert to have the XDA II radio or is there a work around for it.
Thanks Guys
Woody
Hi Woody_XDA,
I have had my XDA2i for a couple of months now and recently got a O2 blue headset for it, I had simular problems with the headset disconnecting and having to manually connect every time I switched it on. After browsing this wonderfull forum I decided to do a corperate install and get rid of the O2 active interface, since then no problems at all. I now use Pugs modified ROM version 162 with radio 1.04 and have no stability problems at all with no twice weekly reset. Hope this helps you and many thanks to Pug for his ROM.
Mace
Ditto, I also use the custom firmware with 1.04 radio and bluetooth works a charm. It still eats battery like nothing else, but it works with no problems. Also like the fact that the XDA can cope with my GPS receiver and my handsfree kit simultaneously, that's handy for in the car.
Cheers Guys for the information, took it on board and works great, did a great deal of stress testing in order to confirm it and works excellent..Thanks to PUG again and guys thanks for the info much appreciated and this is by far a great forum
Mace - you mention some bluetooth issues being resolved since you applied the custom ROM... I posted in the Alpine Applications forum here the other day a list of issues with bluetooth that I was wondering had been addressed - so far no reply - are these the symptoms that were cured for you??
Hi Bewlay Brother sorry, I missed your other post on Bluetooth issues, my original problem was that every time I switched on my BT headset , which is a O2 Blue, I had to open the BT manager and make the connection, the phone would then occasionally lose the connection and sometimes whilst still showing a connection refuse to transfer the call. This was using the official 162 ROM with the O2 active UI. I have since installed Pugs 162 ROM with radio1.04 and done a corporate install and BT seems to work perfectly, switch on the headset, it connects, never loses pairing and transfers calls.
Hope this helps you, and thanks again to Pug,
Mace.
Mace - what you describe sounds similar - my problems were essentially the loss of pairing with my Motorola headset a lot of the times when the XDAIIi switched off its display and went into stand-by mode, also if I closed the boom bike on the headset (to temporarily turn off the headset) it would fail to re-pair when I next opened the boom mike... the other issue was that I had to make sure the phone keyboard was displayed on the XDA once I had paired up otherwise the last number redial function on the headset would not work - if I pressed the dial button on headset and the phone display was not on the screen it would simply open the phone display function but fail to then dial the number - really crap. Also reception was poor to headset even over relatively short distances from the XDA. IF these areas in particular could be cured by the upgrade then I am eager to do it - I must admit I have read that this upgrade has not been without problems for some people here so it is going to be a tough call.
Just a thought, but have you done a personal or corporate install as I think the main fix with Pugs ROM was the upgrade to radio 1.04, which I don’t think affects the BT, so a corporate install with your existing ROM may make a difference.
Did a corporate install when it was new out of the box...
whats the difference between the corporate and personal install?
Corporate doesn't install ANY of the branded O2 interface - so no gubbins, nothing to slow down the phone, you just get a bog standard Windows Mobile 2003 SE installation, aside from the O2 GPRS and SMS settings. Bosh.
hi
i've been reading the posts and i have the same problem where can i get hold of pug's ROM if it's possible cos this seems to get rid of the problem
And then today, headset will not automatically connect, needing Bluetooth manager to be opened to make the connection. AARRRGH!
BT car kit problems
I have the 1.04 Radio, but it still won't sync with my 2003 BMW 325xi bluetooh or with my 2005 Acura MDX bluetooth.

Unstable Bluetooth Signal Strength - Samsung WEP200 Bluetooth Headset
Hi, I just got a Samsung WEP200 Bluetooth Headset. It would pair with my O2 XDAIIi but I cannot hear any voice in both incoming and outgoing calls. When I check the BT Manager, it shows a totally unstable BT strength that varies from very strong to very weak. The same headset worked well with other BT phones. My ROM version is 1.11.00 WWE, Radio version 1.04.00.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

BT headset unusable

Hello
A while a go, I upgraded successfully to wm2005. Since then, my ba works like a charm. Memory, BT, wifi,... all is going swell! The only aggravating point is I no longer can use my bt headset (jabra bt250v and jabra bt800). The problem is that there's so much disturbance that I cannot hear what people are saying and vice versa. I already upgraded the radio till the last version I could find on the ftp, but no luck.
Today I tried with other headsets (another jabra and another sonyericsson) and I have the same problem. But just now, I hooked it up with a sony ericsson bt carkit and the reception is flawless. Too bad that carkit wasn't mine ;-)
So I'm really at a loss here...
If any of you could help me out, I'd really appreciate it!
Thanks!
Beldin
Which rom are you using?
I'm using Helmi's 1.4 rom Vanilla version and it works great with my Bluespoon AX and i-Tech Clip Radio.
You might want to hard reset and flash the WM5 and Radio 1.15 rom again.
I have upgraded to the vanilla version, but the problem remains... (nice version btw!)
The following was also the case with the previous version: when I hold my ba very close to my headset, the cracking stops. Then I have not only my ba to my ear, but my headset in between
I also have a bt gps receiver, which works fine, no matter how far in my car.
So now I still wonder why my ba has such a bt audio problem...
try i-tech s35

BT connection to BMW 1 hands free aborts

hi,
I am driving a BMW series 1. I have an integrated hands free system in the car. I can connect the Touch Diamond with it. Even all the contacts can be shown and dialed with the multi functional buttons on the steering wheel and the radio. Here comes the issue:
During a call the BT connection aborts. Sometimes after 5 seconds, sometimes after 5 minutes. When TomTom Navigator is running it hardly ever worked. So my guess is, it is a performance issue and if TomTom is not running then it only aborts because the battery gets below 60% and perhaps some kind of powersave mode would be activated? I am using a cooked Rom based on the latest original HTC Rom. With the original ROM it was even worse. I hope a cooked ROM would solve the issue. Unfortunately not.
The technical support from HTC told me to ask my car manufacturer. They told me of course the opposite. After I told the HTC guy that it works fine sometimes and I guess it is because of the battery, he just told me to keep it loaded all the time. Quiet funny, but if the performance is the reason then it will never work with TomTom used at the same time.
So, does anyone has any good idea what I could do? Are there any patches available?
I would be really happy for any answer. thanks
Sascha

I had an issue with connecting my diamond to my X5. I fixed it by changing the bluetooth handsfree gateway dll from HTC custom dll to the Microsoft voicecommand dll. Not sure if it will address your issue, but it is worth a shot.
I posted it on ppcgeeks.com. (Sorry i dont have the link handy at the moment)
thanks a lot. i will try and post the results.

No bluetooth handsfree with cooked roms

When I flash my HD with a 1.56 cooked rom, I'm unable to connect with my handsfree. I can pair with the handsfree through bluetooth but I can not hear or speak to anyone.
If I flash with the stock HTC 1.56 rom, I can pair and talk through the handsfree.
Is there a fix for this? I've tried several cooked roms and the outcome is the same.
Thanks!

I have DavidEuck 8.5 running and the bluetooth handsfree with my JVC carkit works fine. Can you try to pair with another bluetooth handsfree set and see if thats works fine? I would recommend at least upgrading to the latest radio.

i have the same problem with most of the cooked roms specilly some times i can not hear the voice of other party this problem arrises with Miri's rom that i like it and Duty's rom that is very famous
for me stock roms and kwbr rom works fine
i have tested 3 devices Motorlla car kit, the expensive new Nokia sterio bluetooth headphone and sony erecsson sterio bluetooth head phone they all have problem with some cooked roms; i hope i can find a wm 6.5 rom that does not have this problem specially with good memory management like miri and kwbr that doesn't eat lots of memory.
Me, too. I am using daviddeuck v6. After 3 weeks sometimes it works and sometimes I cannot hear the other party.
I tried 2 jabra models with the same results.
Same issue
I had the same issue with my parrot 3200LS and Dutty's extreme 2.2/ Laurentius26's L26_THDV2.2_Ultimate Roms.
I even tried JETware Hands-free Extension for Windows Mobile phones (http://www.jetwaremobile.com) --supercool program btw!
But all to no extent.
Reflashing back to Laurentius26's L26_THDV7.5_WWE CE OS 5.2.20769 (Build 20769.1.4.5 L26) ROM "solved" the problem for me.
Now I get my phone's ringtones through my parrot (and thus my car-hi speakers ). Hope the problem is solved in newer roms...
(Btw, great job with your ROMs guys!! )
Y
Happens to me to.
ROM:
dutty v3.4
perhaps we could make a List of working/not worling Roms.
For me it's an essential feature for ROM choice.
Epecially bought a Radio for this feature...
Almost same for me.
Duttys v 3.4 ROM
Ford Car Kit (just talk, no music) connects and works without any problems.
iTech Clip R35 (A2DP, AVRCP) will not pair at all.
(I don't know if the profiles mean anything. Just remembered that there was a lot of talk about supported profiles in the R35 manual.)

Use Onkologs Lite-Rom and it works perfect.
I found i couldnt pair my phone with a few handsfree devices i was testing in a shop - seems there is a problem with the bluetooth stack and the newer roms. Odd this hasnt been reported sooner
i feel there is a problem with the configuration between windows and manilla some where or the driver for blue tooth is not complete that is why it loses the connection somewhere for most of the cooked roms
I agree, there must be something wrong with the bluetooth stack.
When I use a 1.14 ROM, I can hear and speak to people through my hands-free. But, when I flash a 1.56 ROM all I get is "dead air" when I answer a call through my hands-free.
I've tried flashing to Dutty's, Miri's, Laurentius26's, Topix's and a few other rom's, with the same result, I am unable to hear & talk to the other person on my hands-free.
I also tried updating to the 1.14 radio and I've tried older radio's and I still have the same problem.
Starting July 1st, my state will require drivers to use hands-free devices when dialing and driving.

after trying almost all the new roms i returned back to the latest stock rom (28-4-2009) Bluetooth and every thing works absolutely perfect and it has got excellent memory management (only 32% with full loaded program), i use this rom when i want to rely on my HD.
by the way i think all the kwbr roms also works fine with bt. i wish i can find a 6.5 rom that works fine with blue tooth and has got good memory managemt, just waiting may be miri will do something, his rom got good memory management that is very imprtant for me
After the "SD card not shown", this is another weird report by using cooked ROM
has anyone got bluetooth devices to pair with a cooked 6.5 ROM ?
if not this is a pretty major problem ??
Yes I have.
I just got Miri's V15 pairing with my factory fitted Range Rover bluetooth kit and it works perfectly including giving access to the address book.
Previously I was using WM6.1 and many of Dutty's ROMs and I had intermittent drop outs with the car and phone.
Miri's ROM has upgraded my radio so I can't be sure if WM6.5 fixed the problem or if it was the new radio, but for the first time in 6 months I actually have a working hands free kit in my car

Well, that's me fixed...
Both car and iTech Clip works with Duttys 3.7/2.1 ROM.
And I'm ashamed to say; that the clip didn't connect earlier was my fault...
I used default code 0000 as stated in iTech's documentation, not the real default code of 8888...
Once I used the correct code, all was well...

I am using now Laurentius 2.1. My bluetoothheadset that suports only handsfree talking works properly. With my Jabra BT8010 only stereo music works, handsfree is a game of luck.
Hope any ROM expert will fix this in the future. For me it is one of the most important features of my TOUCH HD.
working!
Hi,
yesterday I flashed to Duttys 3.9 Turbo - and I love it!
BT works as A2DP & Handsfree!
beside it's very fast - what else we need
