Hi! I have a qtek 9090 and I'm going crazy on this... Is it possible to listen to music on the BT headset (actually a Motorola H350), or is that supposed to be used only to receive calls? Are there any settings I can change, or does it depend on this specific headset? Thanks!
BA works fine with A2DP profile (stere hi fi audio BT profile), but usually not with base firmware. I tried to use it in WM2003 with BT patches and HP headset, but it works really fine with wm5 from helmi with widcomm stack. Now I use it with Plantronics Pulsar 590 - watching movies is quite nice in TCPMP. Anyway you have to remember about few limitations of this technology:
1. BT in BA has very limited range - from backpack to headset sometimes might be too far.
2. While watching movies, remember about short delay (up to 200ms) needed to compress, send and uncompress the sound.
3. in most headsets you have additional buttons for remote control (AVRCP profile), but it works well only in WMP - havent noticed any other software, that works fine with this option, anyway I havent made in-depth testing.
4. Quality is limited by compression algorithm used in A2DP profile, but for most people it is acceptable (I prefer Koss Porta Pro wired headset for music)
It is possible to make your Qtek 9090 play music via Bluetooth, whether you're using WM2003 or WM5, but you can't do it on a mono (one ear) headset like yours. Mono headsets aren't made for listening to music so they don't support the Bluetooth stereo profile.
If you're thinking about getting a stereo headset, by all means go ahead, but consider some of jakubd's remarks; especially the first one. Regarding the third remark: Conduits Pocket Player supports AVRCP as well and is a great music player!
For some info on how to install the Bluetooth stereo profile, see my posts in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=258457
So...
...does that mean there is no way to use a BT mono headset in the same way of a wired mono headset, i.e. to listen to anything that goes on on your PPC (music, movies, games, calls... whatever, no matter the quality of the sound)???
As far as I know, there isn't...

I have tryed avery possible BT software to redirect mp3 sound to a mono headset (Motorola H605 with T-Mobile MDAIII, Custom WM5 AKU 3.2) and my conclusion is that it is impossible, until someone makes some kind of hack for mono devices to be emulated as stereo.... as far as i know there is no such hack

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,
Balu
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
same
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)

Does anybody know how to config my Blue Angel to play mp3's through my plantronics 510???
Mike Braeuer
Which ROM are you using? Some of them have the capability, some don't... some can have it added, and some can't...
If you provide a little more info then someone will be able to help
Not possible, as far as I know.
The BA can handle it, your headset can't. You can install the A2DP bluetooth profile (needed to stream music via Bluetooth) on your device, but you would still need a (stereo) headset that supports A2DP.
Other than that, I doubt you'd get much pleasure listening to mono music through one ear on a little speaker that's built for cell phone conversations...
If you'd like to listen to music wirelessly, there's a number of bluetooth headsets that support A2DP, all of them stereo and not too expensive.
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

Dear all,
I have searched high and low for the answer to this on the forums, but can't find anything suitable using the terms A2DP, Jawbone, Bluetooth, Streaming Audio.
I have recently purchased a Jawbone bluetooth headset for my HTC Kaiser. It works perfectly well in the "Hands free" service, but I can't find a service for "Headset" in order to play back audio from Windows Media Player. I would like to listen to podcasts on the way to work/gym/car/walk and also handle my phonecalls using the existing "Hands free" service.
I'm using the Dutty's WM 6.1 ROM, based in the UK, using T-Mobile.
Can anyone advise me on what I need to do in order to stream audio directly to my Jawbone bluetooth earpiece?
Many thanks in advance for your advice!
Buy a Jabra 8040...had the jawbone and its horrid compared to this. Music streams great and the audio is awesome.
Hi sirooga,
I appreciate that you like the Jabra, I've seen one and wasn't that impressed. The Jawbone today has been working very well in all my tests - air conditioning, music, even a construction site can't be heard by my caller. It's so light I can hardly tell it's there.
In any case, I've been messing around with the registry after installing Voice Commander 1.6 and noticed that I'm getting streaming sound to my earpiece. Not sure what I did. I'm going to see if I can break it and refix
I have made a quick review of the Jawbone I received today here: http://blog.evolvedsoftwarestudios....se-introducing-the-jawbone-bluetooth-headset/
I hope this is useful for other Kaiser users.
rofl, if you wanted a headset that stream music to you headset then you should have gotten a2dp headphones. you can however, redirect audio from you ppc to the headset, look at Menneisyys in the wiki, there's something in there somewhere about redirecting sound to a mono headset. i dont see the point of doing that though, the sound quality on the headset profile is just not good enough for music.........just go buy a2dp headphones
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://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.
