Hi,
I've come across a similar thread elsewhere, however, I don't seem to be able to obtain a firm answer!
Is my PDA's BT stack in it's current revision (see my signature) capable of A2DP?
If yes, has anyone tried using it with A2DP products e.g bluetooth stereo headphones?
If not, are there any upgrades (ROM, BT stack, or otherwise) that would allow me to achieve this?
Thank you kindly for your feedback

I use a (mono, but it's still a headset) Bluetooth headset with my Alpine. If I'm not mistaken, It does support A2DP, as I can have my headset connected via a connectionless Bluetooth link AND use my Bluetooth GPS receiver with TomTom 5 at the same time (and I have tested this). As I can switch modes on my Bluetooth headset, I can have it just being used as an extension of my speaker and microphone during phone calls, or I can have it pass through all of the system sounds (including menu clicks and system beeps whenever I'm using the device) by pressing the button on the side. The headset icon on the top bar changes from a picture of a headset to a picture of a headset with lines coming out of each earpiece (signifying sound, I guess, that's what it looks like)
If anyone's still curious, I can post screencaps of the different icons.
For the record, I'm using Pug's 1.04 radio upgrade of the otherwise standard O2 firmware, with a Corporate install.

Hi folks!
Is there some kind of step by step manual how to get to a working solution for the well known BlueAngel Problem with it's headset connections?
I found a thread talking about some registry tweaks, but that only enables the menu option to send the sounds to the headset, but finally doesn't produce any sounds...
What I want to have is the instructions, given by the Navigon Mobile Navigator 5 beeing transferred to a bluetooth device (a parrot free speach device or a logitech headset).
I am already running ROM 1.4 and tried all various BT versions, but nothing worked..
Thanks for your help,

err.. I am looking for using bluetooth headset to listen mp3 as well, any help and suggestions? :wink:
im trying to figure out how to do that aswell, (listen to media player using bluetooth on my SVP m2000)
me too is there any idea pls

You can listen mp3s if your headset supports advanced audio distribution profile and you have PDA2K_BroadcomCorp_BTUpdate.cab installed. But if your "advanced" headset does not support old profiles - you would not be able to use it to listen phone calls.
You CANNOT listen MP3s on normal headsets that support headset and hansdfree profiles. To use these headsets you have to sell PDA2K and buy PDA2.

Can you please provide the list of BT headsets (with make / model numbers) that supports this "advanced audio distribution profile"
ht820 does the job!
I have Motorola HT820 on Orange M2000.
The HT820 supports Hands-Free and High Quality Audio profiles and you can playback audio in stereo via the headphones.
I upgraded the BT stack to 3900 and radio to 1.13 and added the extra profiles (instructions are in the Wiki), and it appears to work as both .
When the phone rings, WMP pauses and the left headset button answers the phone. Once you finish the call and hang up, WMP starts playback again.
The only problem that I still have is with intermittent dropout of the High Quality Audio. Anyone got any clues on curing this?
Got mine for around £60 UK sterling.
Is this an hardware limitation? Is this a ROM limitation? BT stack problem?
GSM phone preempting BT handfree?
If not HW, can we expect an upcoming solution to this?
Or, the only "hard" workaround is to plug a BT adapter (like Jabra A210) to redirect mike/spkr, and to desactivate BA BT.
Christmas tree, like.

Registry
Hi again.
So, we didn't really find a solution yet?
I once read something about a little change to the registry, so that a second profile for the normal BT Headset appears.
I searched but I can't find it again.
does anyone know which post I mean?
If so, can you give me a link to that, because I believe that is the right way to solve the problem...
the key is if your source (pda or notebook) is running BT audio gateway. centrino notebooks supports audio gateway. I have a Jabra BT800 and listens to MP3s played from an HP DV1000 notebook but cannot have it working through my XDA II mini (the latter does not support BT audio gateway)

Has anyone been able to configure their Jawbone (or other mono headset) to hear playback via A2DP or other means?
I've googled the entire interweb and cannot seem to get this to work.
The only option I have for the device in the bluetooth manager is "headset" the "set as stereo headset" is grayed out.
Thanks for any help!

just installed it on my tilt and it works great! i can hear windows media and mobiTV through my jawbone!

The Jawbone doesn't support A2DP. There are programs that allow you to stream audio to it (See post above). However, they stream it at phone call quality, which means music sounds god awful. Plus, it eats the battery of the Jawbone (which thinks its it making a phone call).
If you actually want bearable audio, you want a real A2DP headset.
The Jabra BT8040 supports A2DP natively and is an excellent BT headset. I wish it had a standard power plug (fewer things to pack for business trips) but other than that, it rocks.
I also have a Jawbone and prefer the BT8040...the Jawbone has much outstanding noise cancellation but the BT8040 beats it in every other category IMHO.
Or use this small free utility to send all the Audio output to the blue tooth headset (even if it doesn't support A2DP).
http://www.freewareppc.com/communication/bluetoothaudio.shtml
Works flawlessly on my phone
if your bluetooth doesn't have a2dp and you want to force audio throught the regular bluetooth headset then look for the btaudio.cab
I find this to be the easier one to use. Run the can and there will be an icon under programs. Click it will force audio and click it again will undo. This is simple cause it doesnt hog system resources.
Any one here familiar with a "work-around" (such as posted above) for the android platform?
I own a nexus one and Jawbone prime - wish I could stream music/voip(!) over my jawbone (blue tooth ear piece)..
Thanks
Jawbone 2 - should have a2dp

I have a jawbone 2 which I love for the noise cancellation, but if I could get it to support A2DP the possibilities for voice control of my GS3 would be endless. I know this is an old thread, but it would be great if anyone has figured this out.
Please let me know if there has been a workaround.
Thanks

Hey people. Having a bit of a problem here. I've got a single ear bluetooth headset that i'm trying to route audio to.
Telephone calls work fine but I need the ability to route notification / confirmation sounds and raw music streams (basically all audio) to the headset.
I've tried a few solutions (VJvolubilis, bluemusic-etc) but every time I enable the audio gateway, I just get a hissing sound that plays over the headset, while all other sound is routed thru my hima.
I was thinking about configging the headset in the registry to support wireless stereo but wouldn't have a clue what settings to enter.
Could someone provide some advice (or a regkey for wireless stereo) on how I could go about routing all standard audio?
Oh BTW, i've tried the broadcomm stack for hima. Apparently the wavedev.dll file included doesn't know how to either recognise the widcomm stack, or work with it to route audio.
Can someone with a wireless stereo headset post a reg backup of their HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth directory?
Also anyone with working streaming standard audio to a single ear BT headset, please post both your audioGW.dll & wavedev.dll from \Windows.
I would think that your BT headset does not support the A2DP proflie and therefore cannot be used to stream BT audio.
My stereo BT headphone works just fine using the MS BT stack since WM 5.0 AKU 2.X
Sascha
SaBo, the headset is NOT a stereo BT headset. It's a single-ear handsfree headset (the apple bluetooth headset to be precise).
I know it WILL work with all routed audio because i've synced it with a friend's HP PDA that had a native BT stack and all audio (including mp3s and notifications) played thru the headset.
I'm not trying to enable A2DP, i'm trying to force the phone to route all audio thru the mono earphone of the headset.
Anyone else have any ideas?
As I know, it's impossible in himalaya because of technical reasons.

Afaik it's not possible on Himalaya.
You will need an A2DP Headset and it will work.
Sascha
I know for sure it can be done. I had other issue, but that was the point.
you have to change some registrity entry, a don't remeber which, as soon as i find it i'll post it for you.
Here is a hack: try it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=257415
http://foro.todopocketpc.com/showthread.php?t=128642
Andur, no luck on those 2 hacks.
Tried em both. Nothing happened.
The second hack, i enabled BTAudioOn.exe. All that happened was a hissing sound (kinda like background noise/static) started to play outta the headset, while all other sound kept playing outta my Hima.
Any other ideas? Or even better, any ways to fix the widcomm stack so i can use that to route audio? This MS stack is so useless.
Hello all,
Have searched forum but not found exactly my problem.
I'm running ASerg Rus v.24 ROM on my O2 XDA Diamond and I have Parrot CK3000 bluetooth car kit. Gadgets work together flawless as they should unless I use any GPS software. When I'm running any software using GPS (e.g. Navitel Navigator or PocketGForce), on incoming call the carkit rings, but when I push button on carkit to answer, it makes "bleep" sound indicating that it lost connection to Diamond, and the sound goes to handset, not thru carkit. It is obviuos that I can't hear anything and speak to handset pinned to car dashboard. I just have to say aloud to the caller that I have some problems and I will call back in few minutes... It is very annoying that I can't talk while GPS'ing.
Anybody else experienced problems like this? Any solution?
Do you get your sat nav directions through the handsfree when in use? If so how? Usually that means that the Parrot is using A2DP BT profile and not the handsfree profile, but I do not think the CK3000 supports A2DP. Have you tweaked in some way the phone or added an app so that the sat nav uses the handsfree profile? I did using BTMusic app. If you have it may have something to do with the settings on that.
No, navigation software speaks thru phone's loudspeaker, not thru car kit over BT. And PocketGForce I've mentioned above does not speak at all since it is a measurement application using GPS only for getting current speed.
I don't know, maybe I have to play with different radio versions?
I am the happy owner of a HTC Topaz.
I ride a motorbike, and have recently bought a bluetooth crash helmet with built in speakers / mic which works a treat for answering and making calls and also for listening to TomTom navigation instructions from my HTC Topaz.
However, I have yet found a solution to allow me to listen to the built in radio via bluetooth. Because HTC requires the plug-in headset to act as an antena the radio doesnt work without it.
However when I plug in the headset, i get instant radio reception but then the sound is routed to the plug-in headset , rather thean the bluetooth speakers.
My logic tells me that there must be some way to use the plug in headset as ONLY an antena allowing the sound to be routed by deafault to the bluetooth headset. Surely this is software driven?
I am not a software Guru, but keen to learn and frustrated that there doesnt seem to be a yet obvious solution to this problem.
Any help would be appreciated.
