Guys,
I understand you are concentrating on the WM5 upgrade and other interesting projects. Maybe, you can take a few moments out to share some of your experience with a newbie....
I am using TuMa v1.5 WM5. I am able to use BT really well (of course, the issue of BT turning off with device on stand-by remains).
I am able to connect with my TomTom and with my Cardo Scala BT headset. The problem is this: If I use the headset to initiate a call using the BT headset (by double-clicking the headset buttom to redial or by pressing the BT headset button to voice dial) the call goes through as intended BUT my voice does not go over the BT headset to the other party. Also, the voice from the other party can be heard over both, the BT headset and the phone. This problem DOES NOT appear if I make the calls using the phone with the BT headset connected to it.
Please advice. Thanks for your help and for a great forum, especuially for us newbies.

Select use for phone only. Perhaps then it works.
The headset is connecting to device audio, not phone audio.

Really? ... Wow! I'd better update my firewall again.
How'd you steal that version off my machine! 8)
For the sake of argument, I'll presume you're using v1.4, since it has the most up to date BT elements in it, but v1.3 should be very stable for BT communications as well.

Yeah ... I'm still looking into this. I hope to have this working through the Microsoft Stack. The Widcomm one is still looking like a "last resort", and it really is a bit more 'ugly' to use - especially in it's compatibility and (from what I can see) reliability.

Hmmm ... this sounds like there is still some form of a headset audio routing issue as vastloper indicates. Try ensuring that only one profile is active at the time (headset probably).
I will shortly have all the gear I need in order to properly test this myself too.
FYI: I've now recently purchased the following devices:
- SIRF Chipset Bluetooth GPS Unit
- Motorola HT820 Stereo Bluetooth Headphones
- Jabra BT 150 Headset
- Jabra BT 330 Headset
- BlueTrek X1 Headset
And now have access to another Jabra BT 500 Headset, and another pair of Bluetooth Stereo Headphones.
So ... shortly, I will have the ability to REALLY test everything out myself in the Bluetooth realm.
Now all I need is 5 ears, and enough pockets to carry all this stuff in.
The process I used....
Thanks, vastloper and Tuatara.
Tuatara- genius AND a sense of humor... thats a rare combo! We all appreciate your efforts in bringing WM5 to us. You go out of your way to make it better for us. Thanks.
Regarding the issue on this post, just FYI- I used MOHDWADEA's process for voice command over BT: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=42923&highlight=
Could this cause the problem? Does this light any light-bulbs, any 'aha' moments? Please let me know- I greatly apprecaiet it.

You're welcome ... remember it is a 'selfish' undertaking too. I want my phone to [email protected]$#@!#!! work for me ... but it's taking some work to get it to that point.

It's possible. I'm not entirely certain what this will change in the configuration (or versioning of replaced DLL's), but it is possible that there are compatibilty issues. Since I don't have a device with TuMa v1.3 on it anymore (one's on Alpha v1.5 testing, and the other is a AKU2 'brick' attempt at the moment), I can't even find out for you.
has anybody got msvc working over headset? if so what are you using? the program I was using with the hermes doesn't work on the tilt. thanx
MSVC 1.6 works out of the box as advertised. No need for any Hermes hacks (chances are they'll break something).
I've mapped mine to the voice activation key (the one with the speach bubble) but it won't start with my BT headset.
msvc 1.6 doesn't work out of the box! when I hold down button on my headset the dialpad opens and I can hear the headset connect but the msvc doesn't start. I have added a 6 buton in the reg to replace ptt with the voice command.

Well, VC does work out of the box, but you probably need to re-map buttons. On the TyTN II, Button 6 was Voice Speed Dial, and I needed to change that. On the Tilt, it's PTT and you'll need to change that.
But once I made that change, it worked like a charm without any issues on my TyTN II. I'm using a Plantronics Discovery 655, which also might matter - perhaps deleting and re-partnering with your headset might help.
With PTT re-mapped to VC you're having a problem?

I too have had no issues with MS Voice Command 6 on Kaiser. I was never able to get it to work reliably on my Hermes, but notifications and all commands work great over my BlueAnt headset. I currently don't have a button on the phone mapped to it, I only use the headset buton.

I am using the same headset with the Tilt (Att Rom) and I am not very pleased with the BT setup. I do not get notifications through the headset like I used to; and with the BT ROM available, I have no way to click on announcements through the headset. One other problem is that now the reception distance with the 655 is about 6ft at best. Any recommendations on what I can change?
I may flash over to HTC ROM, but I am a little scared as to doing that plus I would have to re-install all my apps (I think).

Sorry, I neglected to mention that I also completely disabled Cyberon VoiceDialer and disabled PTT before intstalling MSVC. Then it works out-of-the-box perfectly... even notifications!
On a Tilt, it did not work at first, but when I did the registry edit to allow for changing the PTT button, and set that button to VC, it works.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Working great!

How do you get the phone to ring through the normal speaker when connected via bluetooth to a headset. In other words, I would rather the phone rings through the normal speaker, I then hit the button on the bluetooth headset and take the call in the normal way though the headset.
any ideas? thanks
Hello,
Someone has an answer to this?
thanks
Has anyone figured out a solution to this? I don't like to wear my headset all the time just to hear when my phone is ringing!
Okay, perhaps it's just me and these other guys having this problem? Even if you don't have this problem, could you respond to let us know it's just us?
Okay, I tracked the problem down to MS VC 1.6. Now, I have to figure out a way to get this to work, since I really don't want to give up my voice dialing in order to have ringing...

The easy solution would be to put the phone on vibrate.

Alright, this describes the behavior perfectly:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1564340&postcount=27
So, the work around is to set "Use handset spkr or wired" under notifications in VC.

Hi all,
I'm having some troubles with my carkit in combination with my Kaiser. I'll try to explain;
I connect my Kaiser to a JVC KDBT1 headunit. This unit supports a2dp streaming (thus the wireless stereo profile), and phone calling (the handsfree profile). It works flawlessly, stereo streaming and calling apart from each other that is. If I'm listening to music on the bluetooth audio source, the wireless stereo profile, and I get a call, the headunit switches to the bluetooth phone source, and I get perfect handsfree calling. But the troubles start when hanging up the phone. The headunit then switches back to the bluetooth audio source, but by then the Kaiser has disconnected the wireless stereo profile. After reconnecting, everything works again. But reconnecting while driving a car is something I don't wanna do to often
So my question is, why does the Kaiser disconnect this profile? It looks like a timeout or something, so I tried changing registry settings by using this link as a guide:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa916863.aspx
Unfortunately this didn't solve my problems.
Someone who can tell me what's wrong?
The same problem in my car. any solution?
try this
try disconnecting from the call using your remote control from the steroe, instead of pressing end on your phone or waiting for the call to end. also install on your phone the btfix.cab. i had the same problem and i tried both of those solutions. as well as set the sync b/t your car and phone to happen automatic.
You might be best off by giving everyone a little bit more information -
What ROM are you running?
What radio?
What version of everything - AT&T - Orange - TMobile?
I have a Stereo headset BT and it switches back and forth easily from phone call to steroe and back easily - no problems - This is the same as your scenario EXCEPT that it is a headset and not a CAR but same technology. So I suspect that it is your configuration that is hosing you up.

Thanks. Will try the same rom and radio and see.
A2DPToggle from http://www.teksoftco.com/index.php?section=freeware should provide a fast workaround as it places a link on the Today screen to reactivate the Wireless Stereo.

Just a word of caution on this application...it really burns through your battery if you have it on your Today screen.
Just tried the same version as whk (the official ATT rom downloaded from HTC USA) but the same problem still exist. Once a phone call is longer than 30sec. The A2DP will drop after the phone call.

I have a Parrott wireless in my Lincoln. When I get in it recognizes the Tilt with no issues. I travel from Dallas to Houston and talk on the phone all the time. I can answer using the Parrott or the phone - it does not matter.
I never have an issue with phone calls.
When I use my Motorola headset I have no issues switching back and forth between phone calls and music. It works flawlessly.
There are a couple of issues that I do have -
1. when you use either the HT820 or HS820 you are SUPPOSED tob e able to press the button on the headset ONCE and it is SUPPOSED to re-dial the last number - both of mine simply beep once and do not dial anything.
2. I have Microsoft Voice Command - (love it by the way) and I have it set to read incoming message headers only when BlueTooth is enabled. This means that while in the car it reads me the incoming detritus so that I know if I need to read my emails right away or not. PERIODICALLY - it will read me the messages on the Tilt speaker (this means that it recognized that there was Bluetooth available but did not make the jump to light speed for what ever reason. USUALLY it rectifies itself after a couple of messages.
Sorry that I was not of more help.

I thought that a2dp toggle program was just a software switch of sorts..wonder why it drains the battery?
I was going to load that program in hopes of using my Motorola H700 BT to listen to music and Slingbox..mono of course.
Hi Bill,
Thanks for your info anyway. Today, I just tried my good old Eten M600 on the same carkit but I couldn't reproduce the problem. It automatically switch back to a2dp after an > 30sec phone call. So, I think it's Kaiser's problem.
For BT redial, some headset (e.g. my sony Ds220) 1 press for voice command, and 2 press for redial.
I wrote a mortscript to automatically reconnect A2DP after a phone call ends. It has solved my problem. You can find a copy of it at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2267998&postcount=516

Disable today screen, and use cmdline switches. It's the today screen which drains battery!

Yep. Try this script...place it in your windows startup folder so that it will startup and execute in the background every time you reboot your device.

JVC carkit problems
Hi
I was reading your postings, and noticed that some of you are also the jvc BT-1 car radio.
Does anyone have the same problems as me ?
When I make a phone call using my carkit and afterwards hang up the call, my connection with the radio is somehow troubled.
When I directly make another call, my audio isn't routed through my radio.
When I wait making a new call, after several seconds my radio gets disconnected and a few seconds later it will connect again. At that point I can make a normal call again.
The worst problem however is, when I leave my car. When the radio turns of, my Kaiser doesn't return sound to the normal speaker. I have te reset the phone.
I am using hyperdragon III Rom 25-09-08 with radio 1.65.24.36.
Any idee ?
Thanks Maikel
hi,
please tell me, how can i listen to fm radio from my mda diamond without the headset?
I know you can set a registry parameter headset to 1.
Then i can open the radio.
But i can´t listen to a radio channel.
Some frequenzes show me a strengh with two bars, without heatset.
But i can't hear anythink.
Someone can help me?
Big thanks
The radio uses the headset as an antenna to recieve the radio signals. That is why you will recieve low signals without a headset.
But i can't hear anythink!
Even no noise
I'm not 100% sure but it might be because it can't pick up any signals at all even the noise from the FM signals. Or the Radio app might be filtering out any really low signals with a lot of noise.
Well, that's just my take on it.
