This is in the Prophet forum. The cab is there on the second page and contains the latest drivers for A2DP. Make sure you delete your A2DP headset partnership first. Then run the two cabs on your device and you should be able to connect.

Cingular SX66 Upgrade - a complete "How-to"
I am not associated with XDA-Developers, but these guys do a lot of good work. If this post helps you, please support their efforts by making a small contribution to XDA-Developers forum – I did. This is a long post and I wouldn't blame moderators for shortenning it. If this is the case, the entire procedure is available on my website:
http://www.souljernation.com/files/SX66Upgrade.doc
Well, I was one of the lucky winners of a Siemens SX66 "AT&T" variant, sold by Cingular, which can not be upgraded using the Siemens SX66Update.exe program. Each time I try, I would get a COUNTRY ID ERROR.
SO, after loads of research, I finally put all of the pieces together to get the thing upgraded to Version 1.33.10 with Radio Stack Version 1.12.00 and Bluetooth stack 1.0.0.3900
This configuration is working pretty well for me and has solved a bunch of the little annoyances of the 1.32 version of the ROM and 1.02 Radio ROM.
Here is the procedure for upgrading – get used to going through the initialization process – you’ll have to do it several times. I am not sure if a full backup is a good idea since it will overwrite the BT stack after you upgrade it. But it is definitely a good idea after you are finished upgrading and getting the PDA restored to the way you use it.
You will need the following files which can easily be found using Google:
Siemens’ upgrade package: SX66update.exe
Hacked Upgrade utility: MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
Blue Angel Flash Tools: BAFlashTools.zip
Radio ROM version 1.12.00: R1.12.00.zip
Restart Radio utility: restartradio.exe
Broadcom Bluetooth stack cabinet: BroadcomCorp_BT1.0.0.3900.cab
Now, you do not want to search all over the internet for these, so here is a nice clean package that contains everything all ready to go…. LMSX66Upgrade.zip
http://www.souljernation.com/files/LMSX66upgrade.zip
You can extract this file to its own directory or build the file set by downloading the files individually.
Here is how to build the file set:
1) Extract the Siemens SX66Update file.exe to a new directory called SX66Upgade (using winzip or winrar). Add the file MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe to this directory.
2) Extract the BAFlashTools.zip file to another new directory called BAFlashTools.
3) Extract the R1.12.00.zip to the BAFlashTools directory.
4) Don’t worry about the BT stack and resetradio for now – just keep track of them.
If you downloaded my fileset you can skip all of that stuff and just extract it to a temp directory somewhere on your PC.
Before proceeding, make sure that you have a good connection and partnership from PC to SX66, that the main battery is fully charged and that you have the power supply plugged in to the cradle. These are all very important steps!!
Remove the device from the cradle.
Start the upgrade –
Manually trigger a bootload by holding the record button and the power button and pushing the reset. Your device will say SERIAL, but the back light will not be on, so it will be difficult to see.
Plug the device into the cradle and the display should change to USB.
Go into the SX66Update folder on your PC and run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe and follow instructions – don’t worry that it does not display the current software versions.
In about 1 minute or less, you should see a bar graph displaying progress. If the program is inactive for longer than a minute or two, restart the PC and try again.
Once the ROMS are updated, the system will reboot, go through the initialization process, but don’t waste any time because the system will get wiped again after the radio upgrade.
Wait for the device to go though the program installation and become usable and partner it with the PC again. (I know, this is tedious – but, hey, we’re geeks, right?)
Next, open the BAFlashTools directory and run BaUpgradeUt.exe. This will take you through the same process, but only flash the radio ROM with the 1.12 stack.
Once complete, the system will go through another complete initialization. Suffer through it, plug it in to the cradle, and partner it with your PC yet another time.
Using the Explorer option of ActiveSync, create a temporary folder on the SX66 and copy restartradio.exe and BroadcomCorp_BT1.0.0.3900.cab to this new folder.
Using the PDA, go into the temp folder and run restartradio.exe by taping it once. This will shut down the BT stack. Look for the telltale “X” by the antenna ICON in the menu bar.
Next, tap the BroadcomCorp_BT1.0.0.3900.cab file and it will self-install the new BT stack. This file will delete itself once installed.
FINALLY, do a soft reset by pushing the reset button and you are done.
NOTE: the Bluetooth stack is integrated into the system ROM. If you do a hard reset or the battery dies and the system memory is lost, the BT stack will revert to the old version.
Good Luck!!
Perhaps this should find its place in the wiki?
This is made obsolete by the new series of 1.40 roms. Soon enough, Cingular will have their version too.
Instructions to update to 1.33.10 are already on wiki, as they are the same instructions as all the other ones. So are instructions to upgrade your bluetooth to 1.0.0.3900 (also made obsolete by the 1.40 series).
Not to mention that there is a 1.13 radio rom, which is superior to the 1.12 rom, seemingly.
I actually noticed all of that, yet I found very few posts to actually recommend those versions and fewer still that actually detail how to find all of the right files and upgrade the SX66 specifically. This is especially true of the SX66 AT&T variant which can not be upgraded with the Siemens' upgrade package. It took me a very long time to find all of this information and get it to work right based on scattered postings - I'm just trying to save brother SX66 owners a little time and frustration and would argue that this post is actually valid until obsoleted by an official Cingular update package (which undoubtedly will not work on the AT&T variant.....)
I'll give you that. I was just refuting ejdmoo's post more than anything.
I assume that you are refering to the wiki upgrade information here

I have a seimens sx-66 and none of these methods worked. They all either gave me the country id error or they froze and left me with no radio.
What i ended up having to do was download the official ssiemens version for the PH20B1 near the bottom of this page.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Upgrades
and then add [CHECKCEID_TYPE]=1 to the ruu.conf as described in this page . And was FINALLY able to even upgrade to the official siemens rom that i'm supposed to have no problem with.
this is what i started out with
PH20B1 : B 1
WWE : E
XGULA001
1.20.10 : 1 0
1.20.115
1.02.10 : 02.10
Sorry The SX-66 is not very well supported on this site and all the begging that I have done for somebody to open a wiki section for it has not worked.
Here are the facts (in my eyes)

So that 4 Woskars for Charlie !!!
I installed the "o2_connect_iis.cab" file in my WM5. I use unloacker to get it from Extened ROM folder when I still used WM2003SE.
But When I start it, it informed that "O2 connect application is designed for O2 devices, which can't run on other devices". Is there anyone know how to fix it ?
The Autoconfig also not come with the WM5. How to install it to WM5? I have seen a lot of cab in Extended ROM folder about Autoconfig. I must travel around the world, so it is convinient to me to have this autoconfig. Please help me
hey everyone. I downloaded WM6 with voice command 1.6 built in (cool huh?). Well yeah. The only problem is that now when I try to remap my bluetooth headset to voice command via the registry hack, the path is COMPLETELY different. its no longer under OEM, but under microsoft, and...yeah, its just different. I wanted to know if the registry hack was still possible since I have it built in to the ROM? and if so, how would I do it?
ok, so I decided to try to not act like a noob and I searched throughout most of the threads that involved voice commmand in this forum. Molski suggested that you copy the "voice command.lnk" from the \windows\ folder to the \windows\StartUp folder. this didn't seemt to work. are there any other suggestions or is it just not possoble on WM6? if so, i'll go back to faria's 3.3 ROM
So where can I download WM6?
Nevermind, I found the thread and how it has been removed.

It seems not too wise to refuse from such a great rom because of VC...
BTW it was mentioned that the "integrated" VC is not able to use BT.
All you need is re-install VC v1.6 and all will be nice (at least for me).
If you don't like to waste storage space you just may modify the installation cab with changing default directory to "windows" and it will "overlap" the integrated version.

You are very wise my friend. I simply installed VC 1.6 and everything worked!!! I can now activate VC through my Jabra BT250V! Thank you so much!
if i find a cab, how exactly do I install it? i do have a registry editor, rescoe. I just got my new AT&T Fuze, and there are some issues, like hte fm radio, etc, and i see where people listed cabs for fixes, but I am a newbie and not sure how to install these.

Hi Pam, .cab or cabinet files are installed from within your device, just click on it and it will ask you where you want the files too be installed (device or storage card). You will find that there are .exe istaller files that can initiate the same process, but you have to be connected to your computer, which most of us don't like. It is an easy and clean way the install files directly in your device. I personally like to keep a lot of cab files in my storage card so that if I delete the cab or flash my device i can reinstall all my favorite applications again, no matter where I am
hi,
I flashed my phone with this rom V-LITE 4.3 COBALT and my bluetooth has stopped working ie not icons or picking up any devices like my cars bluetooth.
I have done the following so far:
1) hard reset the device
2) reinstalled the above rom
3) reinstalled another Jack's lite 4.3 rom
4) checked the windows directory for BtSdKCE30.dll & BtCoreIF.dl but could not find the files.
even when there is no software installed still the same issue, any help or guidance will be appreciated.
edit:
i have tried few other roms now and two seem to the generic ra3 one and also energyrom (my guess is that these are full roms while the ones i was trying were lite one so missing a lot of drivers)
I have installed the v-lite 4.3 as its the one i really like but keep getting the following for bluetooth.
"Problem with bluetooth hardware" error does anyone know how i can fix this? does it need updated drivers or something?
update,
I have got the bluetooth to work by renaming the following file to
Windows\BTHCI.dll.old
the restart the phone and it will recreate it again
but it still does not pick up my car bluetooth but picks up other phones without any problems.
there so many BT files within Windows folder but not which one to change or rename

I got the "Problem with bluetooth hardware" error when I try to add new bluetooth device.
I try to rename the "Windows\BTHCI.dll" file using total commander, but the file could not be renamed nor deleted.
Is there anything else I need to look out for?
