BA WM5 Broadcom 1.7.1 Build 3400 Stack (Test)
This is just some test of mine to hv option with BT stack (MS/Broadcom), I only spend the last 3 hour workin on this little project, so it really possible if anything is missing or I forgotin something (its happens to me right?..lol), but I've test it and it work like it should (With My v1.3 ROM), I dont know if this test hv a bug. maybe we can test it, especially A2DP and stabilty issues with this test.
Tested operation:
1. Activesync
2. Send/Recieve File
3. Headset via computer
4. Network Access
5. BT Serial Port
6. Dial-up Networking
Known Issue:
U tell me, not tested so much.
Instalation:
1. Install the HELMI_BA_WM5_BT1.7_TEST.CAB then soft reset
Uninstall (note the step its really neccesary, or u'll endup mess with ur phone):
1. Install Enable_MS_BT_.CAB
2. Delete registry value (or the folder)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WIDCOMM]
and delete "Redirect" key on:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Bluetooth]
"Redirect"="BTConnManagerCE.exe"
3. Reset
4. Uninstall HELMI_BA_WM5_BT1.7_TEST.
5. Delete file from \Temp dir
EDIT:
I forgot to mention, after u run ENABLE_MS_BT.CAB the Broadcomm/Widcomm file will be move to \Temp folder so u can delete it safely...
Dont expect to be perfect on this release, cos its only on earlier stage, to early, hopes someone might help for improvement, and workin together with me, and I hopes some1 can make a better Install/Uninstall process.
Dont install/try if u dont know what ur doin, and backup your data is a must.
Input is always welcome. cos I believe there's still much things to do.
Thanks for http://www.aximsite.com site and everybody there for the BT file.

and also thanks -=xXx=- for the info where to find it. thanks man.
Helmi
gonna test it now helmi_c
thanks
Just intalled. The stereo works fine! Great quality for me! The hands free seems to be a bit tempremental. Worked once and then stopped afet receiving one call.. WIll try it out again..It looks like am stuck with an either. One observation: with the ms stack, there was a headphoen icon while using the phone. is absent here...wonder if that was a ms stack function?
deepak
helmi_c,
hmm weird, after i installed the new wildcom stack, my pda cant see my headset anymore.
still testing though.
wish me luck.
imatrix
I believe u guys both hv problem with MS Stack, hopes this stack will help for who having problem with MS Stack, but remember this is just some sort test, maybe still need a lot of improvement. but its seems work good with deepakr who hv problem with MS, imatrix hopes u'll hv the same result like he does. good luck.
btw In the rar there's a BTspeed cab, it might help for some headset, post on the Axim forum sites... there's also another app for controlin power if i'm not mistaken, I'll post when i get back.
A little note, this stack sometimes wakeup if gsm signal is lost/found, if the signal of gsm is good, it shouldnt happen (theoriticaly speaking..lol..).

Firstly great to see BT restarting automatically after handset is switched on from standby mode. After some fooling around I was able to set up activesync and it worked like a charm (useful for me especially since USB activesync does not work)
Couple of problems I faced
1. Turning off and restarting BT gave me a unable to load driver due to insufficient memory error. When I stopped my activesync, outlook and contacts and tried again it started successfully.
2. I was unable to find the DUN service and my PC did not recognize a DUN service either - am I looking/not looking at the right place?
Thanks and highly appreciate your prolific contribution

Hi Hemli
I have just installed this a minute ago,
Ill report back in a few hours with my experiances with this.
Hopefully it will be better than M$ BT stack with stereo headsets.
I've upload a patch that contain a newer BTCeIf.dll (1.7 the original was 1.6) and HTC_PCM_Routing.dll taken from htc device. well... in my device I dont hv problem with memory issues, even without this patch.. I dont know for sure, cos i dont test it much...currently test workin Simultaniously is BTSYnc, SerialPort 1 in 1 out, and Audio Gateway. and its still work fine.
btw please post comment here, and also what rom u currently use. Otw now, just come to trow the patch..
bro helmi,
Sorry if i asking you stupid question.
Can this file install/working with WM2003SE ?

hi..

1- if i turn on bt the wifi dont work..
2- if i turn on wifi, the bt give the memory error

No, it does not work on WM2003SE, I installed it and I had to hard re-set my Imate, it works only under Wondows 2005!!
Any way I gave it a try and I had to hard reset my PDA any way!!
Helmi, I just wanted to confirm, that Dial-Up with 2nd phone works fine. Tested also BT stereo headphones from HP (A2DP with additional profile for controlling playing - skipping to the next track and pause) - So far works as only BT implementation in BA allows: on close distance and not doing much in backgroud works fine.
Another happy user of your Firmware and other tools for BA!
Later on I will test GPS on BT, but do not expect any problems.
One small detail is left from old BT stack: while creating a connection you can still choose connection using "Bluetooth" that refers to M$ stack (selecting it reports hardware error - not rreally suprising

Aha! The patch helped! I now have a fully functional headset, stereo on the headphones and a great speedy and stable ROM. Makes me one happy camper. Looks like now I can go ahead and finally configure this with all my apps. Thanks helmi
NO HANDSFREE PROFILE
Hi
nice integration and thanks but i went back to ms as my sony ericson hcb-700 wll not pair for some reason after looks like the handsfree profile is not working
The Audio stream is great with this BT solution !
But when I connect to my parrot ck3300 carkit, It opens the connection like there is a tel.call active. when i press the hangup button on my carkit the BT connection is gone.
So it seems it is connected as headset and not as handsfree phone,
One other thing, when I connect to my BT Sony Ericsson HbH ds970 stereo headset I cannot shut off the screen in tcpmp player ???
(I think this also happened with th MS stack)
any solution for this ?
Last test (with my clean AKU3.2 v1.3) with BroadcommPatch1 applied and no overclock:
Turn on/off 4 times and reconnect below service (get bored to turn on/off and play with it again):
currently active BT service at the same time is:
1. Activesync / Bluetooth serial Out (syncing)
2. Network Acces/ Bluetooth Networking
3. Audio Gateway / Calling my mobile operator and stream audio to my pc as headset
4. Send/Recieve file from pc and from pda
5. Bluetooth serial In
and currently active application (leave as background procces I dont close it):
1. Activesync (Syncing)
2. Calendar
3. Contact (580 contact display)
4. Excel Mobile opening 185kb file
5. Album
6. Word Mobile opening 220kb file (little bit slow on opening)
7. Powerpoint Mobile opening 350kb file till end slide
8. Notes
9. Task
10. Bluetooth Manager
11. File Explorer
12. Calculator.
lastly...activate Wifi...wifi detecting & connect to neighbor network... turn off wifi...activated again...detecting & connect to neighbor network again...
but I dont test the GPS (serial port) or A2DP stuff since i dont hv it.
turn off bt...turn on again...reconnect the above BT service...do this 4 times.. still no memory issues. well maybe I'm just bein lucky... but the battery is drain more faster with this test, maybe because this is somekind of stress testing.
so far this Broadcomm stack still running well...the sound from Audiogateway while this test active is still ok, but if the gsm signal is bad, the sound is bad also, so its not bt problem its a gsm problem. btw the ShutXP Icon on the tray is GONE..thats weird.., that the only issue I hv..
btw does anyone know where to find a PC Widcomm/Broadcomm driver that support A2DP, I dont remember where to find it. My PC Widcomm driver version is v1.4.2 Build 12, quite old, I want to test the a2dp profile.
btw if u play with:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WIDCOMM\Plugin\HandsFree]
"SupportedFeatures"=dword:37 (default doesnt exist)
"ServiceMask"=dword:1
"AudioSetupDll"="\windows\HTC_PCM_Routing.dll" (default MkSpk_PCM_Routing.dll need to play with this and see what more widely support device)
"AudioPreferences"=dword:2
"AudioHandling"=dword:13 (default 8 )
there's a Icon if headset is activated. but its seems unstable in my device, try it.

Good to hear that deepakr, Btw I imatrix what u status man? is it workin with u (the patch)? if u still hv a static noise issues, try to delete the shortcut on the BTManager and re-create the Audiogateway Shortcut.

Thanks Helmi, great job!
A2DP works nicely, but now i get the same opposite as compared to microsoft stack. my A2DP is perfect whereas any calls that come in ring through the hedset, but i can't pick the calls up / talk through the bluetooth headset. weird uh?
Anyone hit the same problem?
I have no problems with static, just some slowdowns due to processor usage and i can't toggle the screen in WM or using display switch.
Great Job though!
edit:
maybe its because i'm connected as both headset and high quality audio? going to try connect as hands free and HQA.
edit 2:
can't for the life of me find out how to pair it in handsfree mode! Any pointers?
:? :? :? Just a notification of some strange happenings with bluetooth handsfree -
I have been having problems with connecting the bluetooth handsfree Earpiece since installing TT6 - have tried uninstalling it, and then bluetooth handsfree works fine - it also works fine with TT5.21. - reinstalled TT6 and managed (with help) to get it all working from the 512MB SD card ( just 2 main folders on there:- GB plus Western Europe main roads map & Program Files with everything else in there),
everything was working Ok until I tried to connect to tomtom for a traffic update via GPRS, - I kept getting a message saying couldn't connect to server and to check GPRS settings on device or soft reset, which i did and re inserted all the GPRS settings.
Then I could connect via GPRS to get traffic updates - but it was impossible to connect the bluetooth handsfree again. Strange ain't it !!
I don't have any problems with the bluetooth GPS which is a Globalsat 339.
Apparently the version of TT6 that is available at the moment is only a pre-release and so has quite a few bugs in it - best to wait until the retail version is available. - when it is working I have found it to be really good - so without the bugs it should be great.
If anybody has any ideas on fixing this problem, let me have your input, i'm willing to give it a go, but i'm not very technical so need simple instructions. :wink: cheers all!
You may want to...
Uninstall your ILLEGAL copy of TomTom. That would solve your problem. Then you can go an PURCHASE a legitimate copy when its released and see how a LEGITIMATE copy works on your 2i instead of using a PIRATED beta version.
It's just a thought but I'm not too bright......
Why???
But the original TT5.21 was also an illegal - cracked copy and it worked on there!
Why pay for it when you can get it for free.
No you're not are you - maybe it's a culture thing!! :wink:
TOM TOM 6 - Bluetooth Headset Problems - SOLVED!!
Sorry to upset Weatheryoko :roll: but i think i've solved the connection problem(with help from anonymous) :wink: I Hope this helps someone else with similar problems. Downloaded Broadcom 3900 cab from wiki site/Blue Angel, to overwrite files already installed on my XDA11i - in case any were corrupt, this didn't make any difference. Then downloaded A2DP cab from Alpine Upgrading forum - put on to SD card - run it on XDA - soft reset - set up pairing with Headset - at first didn't seem to work but looked in active connections and icon was there tapped status and it was connected - icon showing on top bar, tried turning on and off few times - made phone call - started up tomtom 6 - all seems to be working ok. I haven't tried another soft reset yet as that was where the trouble started before - so far so good - I now have a fully working XDA11i with tomtom 6, all the maps and whistles and bells and connectivity to my BT Headset :lol: I hope this helps if you are having bluetooth headset problems, try A2DP. PLEASE DO NOT ASK ME FOR TOMTOM 6 LINKS THEY ARE OUT THERE - SEEK AND YOU SHALL FIND!
Cheers all - pistebeast
I need help too...
I have Tom Tom on mmc card but my Gps receiver wont connect. I always get 'no gps device' message although my device is connected. the red light begins by flashing but then stays on constant. (is this relevant?).
My incoming beams box is already unchecked.
I have XDA 2i and would like exact step by step instructions how to get my GPS to work... (I'm a new user - it took me one hour to set a song as my ring tone - so imagine how long this is taking!) I feel like I have tried absolutely everything and its really starting to drive me crazy. All I want is sat nav.
Thanks.....
XDAIIi GPS problem
Chicken,
what version of TT are u using?
what gps receiver?
If it's TT3.x, 4.x, or 5.x (don't know v6 yet), first you'll need to pair your receiver with your XDA. Go to Bluetooth Manager->Tools->Paired Devices. Here (if it's not there already) tap on Add and then tap on search icon (next to Device: field). It will search for any bluetoothdevices in range. Once it finds your GPS receiver, enter the passkey (provided with the receiver, usually 0000) and tap ok. The GPS receiver should be installed.
Start TT, go to Change Preferences and browse to Show GPS Status. Here, tap on Configure, choose your GPS device (I guess it will be Other Bluetooth GPS), click on Select (if prompted for pairing the GPS with PDA just tap on Continue) and choose the port. It'll be one of the bluetooth serial ports (it's COM6 in my case). Make sure that the receiver is still on and bluetooth active and watch the GPS status. If there is No GPS device! message on the top go back to configuration and change to another port.
If still no luck go to your XDA Start->Settings->Connections->Beam, make sure the Receive all incoming beams is not selected. If still no joy, you'll need to test all the connections, check if you can 'see' the receiver with another bluetooth device ez mobile phone, than do the same with your PDA. You can also reset the GPS receiver (check the manual), you can also do it by removing the battery from it and leave it like this overnight...
Good luck!
can you recommend a good GPS receiver?
Hi Robsonix.
Thanks for your reply. I got stuck at the first stage though - but was relieved to find out I'm not a complete dummy as this is what I had already tried - but failed. I cannot get my GPS to pair up with my bluetooth. My phone cannot find it.
I bought my receiver on Ebay. its just a wire thing that connects through my cig lighter to my phone. It didnt come with any instructions!! I think its a little dodgy. Can you recommend a proper one?
I'm not sure what tom tom it is, I think 5?? But actually I havent a clue.
I cant check if the receiver works with another phone as it only has connections for the xda 2i.
Thanks for your help - I hope u can help me some more.....
any recommendations??
Chiken
ha ha. Never mind - I think I've found the problem. I'm such a thicko!! It takes two to tango right? I'm such a thicko...

Do you select the correct port number to match your gps port number in the gps setup in TomTom?

SPV 1500 "Alpine" TT5 with GPS receiver
I've just joined this Forus following the aquisition of an Orange SPV which is now unlocked to run on T-Mobile. I have also used an MDA Compact II (Charmer?) successfully for the past year.
Like this current thread originator "chicken" (and no doubt many others) have had difficulty running my Holox BT-321 BT sat receiver with TT5. It pairs OK, but I TT5 cannot "see" the device, even though I have selected just about every Com device available.
I recently bought a wired sat receiver (just like chicken did), and thought this would work better. However, TT5 will not see this device either!
Can someone tell me how I can check which Com port is active on the PDA, or check if there is an input stream coming in from the sat receiver?
This is getting bloody frustrating now. My old Nokia 6600's worked first time out of the box!
Thanks

Ok ive got an xda2i and mini s.
I have tomtom on the 2i (not changed it over to the mini s cos i like the larger screen) I want to get a stereo head set for use on the motorbike so i can listen to music, also want to be able to listen to tom tom comands. When a call comes in take the call as i pull over. (saves takin off the helmet).
Does the xda2i support A2DA?? its standard UK spec with only the O2 upgrades from them.
Now using the jabra 205 headset i have at the mo, i know i can play music (poor quality) and have tomtom run at the same time. Thing is when a call comes in the music and tomtom mute and the call comes through (which is good) but when the call ends the music and tomtom revert to the xda2i. i have to press the button on the headset to switch back.
Is there also a good voice dial for the xda2i.
So if the xda2i does support a2da will it do what i want?? I know that if it will ill have to strip the system and fit it to the helmet (doesnt bother me if it will work as im an electronics engineer)
You can download the audio bluetooth from Broadcom via google (Broadcom Corporation BT-PPC AV is the download you may want to check out).

Can A2DP
XDA 21 support A2DP
gone to that link... thanks. ive dloaded the file but have no idea what to do with it. im serious i have no idea at all. i need complete idiot guide for it.. post in the other location or here, i dont mind
many thanks
cool i got the file installed and have nice clear sound, it switches between a call and wmp BUT if i run tomtom5 the music starts to drop out.. big gaps and the same happens with the tomtom comands. this happens to tomtom even if i dont have wmp running.
getting fed up with this stuff now. at least with the wired headphones it all works....
Did you install any battery monitoring software...
the xda is from a hard reset, tomtom 5.2 installed, then the A2DP cab. thats it.. not even put on my contacts or anything. totaly clean. then added the BT-Q800 GPS and its little test program which only when run is used to find which com port the gps is running on. used the setting from that to set tomtom correctly.
TT tested with the gps fine.
then added the headset. tested fine.
BUT when i try to have both the GPS and headset working thats when it gives up. i have a feeling its going to be something to do with the bandwidth on bluetooth.
The audio starts to chop up as the GPS is connected. Ive not tried it with the wired gps though
What your Roms and Ext, version
Hi
Is there any software for the tytn2 which will allow me to use it as a bluetooth gps?
Thanks
i have installed a program named GPSgate. You can try this... but i never tested it. You can link your gps to bleutooth virtual com port and trough USB i thougt.
Good Luck
GPS2Blue, work perfect with my Kaiser and my UMPC via bluetooth
Looks like GPS2Blue will do the trick - what settings did you use on the TYTN2 ?
Thanks
I had the same question this morning Downloadd GPSGate end it worked perfect as a GPS via BlueTooth.
How did you do that doemaarwat

No just kidding. I installed the software on my TyTN II. Then started the program and it came with a wizard. I checked Active Sync and BlueTooth. After that you have a new row at the bottom of your screen. There you can see that it is active. I turned on the BT on my device. Then browsed BT devices on my computer and there a got a SPP port and it was mapped to COM18. In my program (which we wrote ourselves at our company) I connect to COM18 and all works fine.
Yes Blue2GPS is small, simple, light and it worked with NO FUSS and no bull.
I can use the GPS on my phone to track my position using Google, Microsoft's Live search and Delorme all the while sending a GPS signal to my laptop where I can also track my position - Lots of fun!
GPS2BLUE is but simple - It works.
Beautiful. Had exactly the same question and this has flatly answered it I spent hours this morning trying to get my Tytn2 to work as a standalone GPS receiver that my old brick of a Ipaq h6340 could use for it's SatNav software.
Thank you to all
Yep, try GPSGate.....
This is going to sound silly, but is it possible to share a bluetooth GPS via Bluetooth on the Tilt?
I have an unused smartphone with Tom Tom on it which I'd like to use as a car nav so my Tilt isn't tied up doing it. But I want the Tilt having use of the GPS for TrackMe and other things.
I will not use the Tilt's GPS for many reasons, so I use a Bluetooth GPS, and share it out to multiple programs on the Tilt via GPSGate. All that works well. But it'd be nice to be able to share the bluetooth GPS with the other smartphone as well.
AFAIK the GPS won't connect to multiple devices, and I tried to set up a bluetooth output in GPSGate which didn't seem to work. I know the Tilt can connect to multiple devices on Bluetooth, but perhaps GPS data is too much to share. But figure it's worth asking.
