Odd request but new to windows mobile.. plz help. - Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps

Greetings,
I'm a new member to this community and i have been able to find all the answers i need in regard to my new phone here. I've learned how to remove as many of AT&T's "IMPROVEMENTS" as i could possibly remove. I'm not happy with the way it looks but that's ok. it works.
The question I have is this. My phone does everything for me now including email, gps, internet, internet for my laptop, play movies, play music. I'm curious about what else it can do. I've seen applications that just use the flash on the camera as a flashlight and it can be bound to the PTT button.
Is there an application that will be able to interface with my computer and route the sound through the external speaker on my phone for those ocassions that i lan and forget my speakers.

I don't believe there is the ability to rerout sound. That seems like it would take some crazy drivers...
Anyways I don't know of any program.
If your new to the community you may want to look at getting a new ROM. That may help remove the AT&T bloatware and make your device look better and perform much better. There are guides in the ROM development section to flashing your first ROM.

You can do this through bluetooth create a bluetooth partnership then under the bluetooth devices you will see your laptop select and hold on it and it should give you the option to set as wirless stero
Good luck!!

Bluetooth Earpiece

I just purchased a bluetooth earpiece for my IIi in the hopes that I could stream music through it. APPARENTLY, the BT device only suppors the handsfree profile, which means all it's good for is to relay PHONE CALLS. I don't use the phone that often so it seems that I wasted my money. Anyone know a solution to get the phone to reroute music to the BT device if it's possible?
many possible solutions to your problem
There are many possible solutions to your problem and many software. Go to the following blog by Menneisyys (the expert!!) and look for a blog that tells you everything about redirecting audio to headsets.
http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3
You rock! I will definitely check that site out, thanks a bunch!
EDIT: Argh, I am an idiot. I tried a crapload of tweaks to get it to play on my earpiece when all it took...get this, was a push of the function button on the earpiece. The icon on screen immediately changed, and now I'm listening to Jingle Bell Rock at pretty decent quality on my headset. Thanks anyways peeps!
Great to be of help.. Merry Christmas... Now, don't you want listen to Jingle Bell Rock in Stereo instead of mono? It's also working fine now, just that you will have to find the correct hack for your phone.. It took me 6 months to get mine..
Guys, same problem here
can somebody show the link again please

Two Steps Away From A Perfect Tilt

Well at least in my eyes anyway... I have almost the perfect setup for me running Sleuth's 3.0 WWE Rom and radio 1.64.08.21 with MSVC 1.6 and if I could just get it to do two more things it would be perfect. Crazy thing happened today, so I know the first wish must be able to be achieved. I'm sitting in the airport waiting for a flight watching my mobile slingbox with the audio coming out of the internal speaker and I have my bluetooth headset on waitng for calls to come in. Sure enough a call comes in and MSVC starts to announce the caller, but also starts playing the audio from my slingbox. "What I say how is this possible?" I'm just using a cheap Jabra headset that I got from Verizon as a matter of fast it says Verizon on it and not Jabra. The headset works perfectly with MSVC 1.6 announcing callers and everything else, but I didn't think it was possible for it to allow audio from music or streaming video such as mobile slingbox. Well it did during that incoming call, so does this mean it is possible to listen to audio through this bluetooth headset? If anyone knows what I need to do to be able to listen to music and streaming video/audio please let me know. That is wish #1.
Wish #2 is the ability to use a app. that will allow me to respond to text messages via voice, I guess some type of speech to text app. that I can speak into my bluetooth headset and it will type out the words to respond. I've found it very difficult to respond to my text messages traveling 80mph down the road and I also don't think it is very safe. So I'm not sure if wish#2 is possible, but I thought I would come here and ask.
So that being said the two above wishes would complete the coolest device that I have ever owned in my 42 years of life. If you can help a old man's wishes come true please let me know.
Thanks in advance,
JMan
This is for your first wish :
I would let another "genie" to grant wish #2
Just sliding this over to the regular Kaiser forum
Mike
Thanks for this...I too used to use something like this for the Wizard and the Hermes. Never looked into it for the Kaiser! Thanks though!
only problem is once you are completely happy you won't be able to mess around with your device anymore, making you unhappy.....

I installed this best I knew how, and I get error message "Failed to enable BT audio" I did a search on "BTAudioToggle" but can't seem to find anything on it, how to use it or install properly. Thanks for the fast response to my post, so I guess it does look like there is hope for my first wish.
Thanks again
Or
Or you could just buy a bluetooth stereo/voice headset. I forgot how to phrase the name of this. But I use the tritton bluetooth stereo caller id headset and it works good.

I'm sure most of you have already seen this but I couldn't find any reference to this on the forum. This works on kaiser XDA-Live 1.2 (and I'm sure all the other ROMs too)
from the webpage: http://www.trianglepowers.com/PPC/ViewApp.aspx?ID=52
Description: Want to listen to your music stored on your Windows Mobile 6 Professional device, but don't want to carry around a corded headset? If you've got a BlueTooth headset, then you're in luck! With this program, just start it up, and all of the sounds from your system will be rerouted from the internal speaker to your BlueTooth headset! This program does not require the 2.0 Compact Framework.

The only time I get the error you got is when my headset isn't turned on and linked to the phone. Remember also that the toggle is a toggle, the connection breaks when something else interrupts the audio, like a phone call. You must toggle it off then back on (or use BTaudioOn).
Hey thanks guys my first wish has come true and I'm now able to listen to my slingbox through my BT headset and also listen to music! Thanks again foe that.
As for wish #2, it looks like it is not possible, I been reading many post from 2004 until today and it looks like our devices just don't have the power to run a speech to text program with what we have today. I guess I'll just keep on wishing.
Thanks again,
JMan

I don't know of a speech-to-text program specifically but I would not say it isn't possible. Cyberon and MS both have speech recognition in their Voice Command products. I also have Windows Live that allows me to speak a location to get directions.
All of these apps run on TYTNII and do not require voice training to work. They are not perfect, but they do work. Hence, it should be possible to do what you ask. But no one has done it yet?

Sound from PC to Dream?

Is there a way to send the sound coming from one's soundcard over wifi to a Dream phone?
Note: NOT to stream music or radio or video, there are lots of apps for that.

What are you trying to do then.
well, i dont know about transferring the sound coming out of the soundcard, but you can setup a samba share and then use Estrongs File Explorer to connect to it and you can play your music from your pc on your phone, but honestly you didnt give alot of in-depth info about what youre trying to do, so i dont know if thats what you want. I mean if you want to hear it in both places at once then thats not the way, but if you just wanna listen to music from your pc then its good.
You should always leave AS MUCH INFO AS POSSIBLE for people when you post looking for help, that way people dont have to GUESS how to help you.
So like i said, if you just wanna listen to music without keeping it on your phone, get Estrongs (free in market) and setup a samba share (Windows Share) and connect to it and play away...
Please reply back with more in-depth info about what it is you're trying to accomplish, and maybe youll have a better chance at getting some decent help...as it stands your request is rather vague and your chances of getting a decent answer are slim so just let us know EXACTLY what it is you're trying to do and see if that gets you anywhere....hope this helps...

Well the question sums it up pretty well and it's fairly simple, I want to hear what my PC's is playing through the phone speaker or headset, eg if it's playing from a tuner card I want to 'pipe' the sound to the phone
You're going to need a compatible sound server running on the phone.
Look at pulseaudio.
Note: this is not going to be a simple project -- you need to get the pulseaudio server running on android. That means coding, compiling, etc.
Once pulseaudio server is running on the android phone, it is trivial to set the pulseaudio client on your computer to use the android phone pulseaudio server as its default output.
Good luck.
Bluetooth?
Not sure but is there a way to turn your phone into bluetooth headphones? That would probably be easier... Dunno.. Just putting it out there... If the phone supports it, programs like BlueSoleil (for pc) can pipe out all sounds over bluetooth.
do you have a wireless router? If so, you can use an app called Gmote. From there you can play music that's on your computer through your phone speaker. Also, you can use your phone to select music and have it stream through your computer. Finally, it also acts as a wireless mouse with your touch screen and you can use it to navigate instead of using your mouse if you are across the room. It's pretty convenient. I use it all the time.
I have Gmote and it's amazing, but one can only play files, I don't see a way to play the sound from the tunercard for example. Anyway not serious was just wondering if it were possible.

Dumb newbie question - should I upgrade?

Okay I read, well skimmed the FAQ, thanks to the authors.
I am about to buy a used SPV M2000 ORANGE with sat nav software.
I already have an Orange pays as you go phone and am happy with Orange.
Is there any point in me upgrading the SPV to the latest ROM software etc. or is this really just for enthusiasts who want to tinker (nothing wrong with tinkering if that's your thing).
I really just need a decent phone, sat nav, (important) mp3 player. Dont watch utube or play games, take the odd photo.
Thanks for taking the time to read/reply.
hi and welcome to the forum.
interesting question you have there.
well, upgrading to the latest roms has pros and cons.
pro:
+ nice look
+ latest software can be installed
+ nice ui (many things are easier now)
+ finger friendly
+ new features like a2dp...
+ envy factor
+ stable
+ no loss of data if battery empty
con:
- not as fast as wm2003
- maybe not available in your native language.
- keeping up with latest builds and reading this forum can be addictive
if you hadn't had a blueangel before, you should definetely upgrade it, the minute you unwrap it. then you don't see the slight drop of speed and responsivity. also, while sat nav and mp3 are not even the tip of the iceberg of what the device is capable of, it seems, both those uses are for on the road, meaning you probably don't have time to fumble around with the stylus all the time (pro upgrading).
depending on what sat nav software you plan on using, you will most certainly be able to use a newer version with a newer operating system. bluetooth gps receivers are more compatible with wm6 than before, also the pairing and setting up is easier.
for mp3, im wm2003 you basicly have 2 options: the integrated windows media player (it sucks btw.) or TCPMP. in wm6 you can pick literally from hundreds, which one fits your needs best. S2P is nice for dashboard music playing, TCPMP is better for in pocket playing, because it can be operated using the side buttons. also, as mentioned before, the newer builds offer a2dp, bluetooth stereo output.
let me just describe a short situation here:
stereo bluetooth handsfree
phone (in my case it was the UNI)
bluetooth gps
the phone can connect to both bluetooth devices at once, you can listen to the sat nav commands through your handsfree, while, when it does not talk, listening to music, wireless and if a call comes in, you can still answer it.
this is only possible with a cooked rom, because of a2dp, extreme multitasking , new apps that wouldn't work with wm2003.
one last thing, if i'm getting that right, you are planning on upgrading once and staying with that os. while the newer builds are stable and fast, there is always room for improvements, the development never stops and so there will always be even newer builds coming out, that have more features, are easier to use, faster and have longer battery life. that's why i said this is addictive.
regards
Chef_Tony
Thanks, for reply, I will give upgrade a go.
Hopefully not too complex, I am used to flashing the rom on my satellite box, - easy.
Fingers crossed.
it's a little more complicated than that, especially when done for the first time. but all steps are logical and need to be done just once, then you are good to go, and every possible following upgrade will be a piece of cake, a few simple steps. have a look at the tutorial linked in my signature. it is constantly updated after user input and i believe that makes it pretty clear and understandable. also, you will find all the software needed for the procedure. if something is unclear, please report it to me and either i can add more instructions to the tutorial or explain, what it means.
From my opinion,its not good to go for old one.
i always prefer to buy a new one.
And for upgrade question,it is always possible to get it.

[Q] Newbie begging help

Hello!
I am looking for something that does not seem to exist. I registered here in hopes that the brilliant minds of XDA might be able to offer me a solution.
I want Bluetooth hands-free calling on my desktop PC.
Let me explain: I work in my garage. I use my garage PC as my only music source. I use it for email and web stuff too, of course, but its main job is providing a streaming source for music from the server in my house.
When I am working and my phone rings, I cannot hear my phone. Tablesaws and routers and sanders are noisy, and the music is blasting.
What I want is the same thing my $200 car stereo does: mute or pause the music and announce the caller ID through my speakers. When I am done with the call, resume the music.
Seems simple, doesn't it? I have been googling this for quite some time. No answers anywhere, it seems.
If/when I push the button to answer, I want to use a microphone and my speakers to talk on the phone...simple as that. Yes, I know, there are a hundred ways of doing this other than my PC (stream to tablet, BT to tab, tablet to stereo, etc.) but nothing is going to live very long in all this sawdust (including my PC, but I don't care) so the goal is to have to buy nothing but a BT dongle and some software.
So...since I work on stereo stuff for a living, the stuff you guys do is a complete mystery to me, but I know what I want.
Does anyone know of an app that does this? If not, it seems to me that this would be a fairly marketable thing, does anyone have an interest in developing this?
Thanks for looking, and hope you have some brilliant answers for my dilemma.
Thanks!
Luke Fisher
well if you plug your phone into the speakers and play music of it like Pandora or even download your own music. Then when you get a call the music will stop and your ring-tone will play through the speakers till you pick up the call or miss the call.

Yes this is true, there are no cross platforms apps that really do what you want. This will happen probably in the next years it has to do with getting the platforms to work together.
I looked into this a couple of months ago, I did find a work around if you want to operate in linux........ then you can get the phone and computer to work together but then you are doing your own custom programming...... and you just want an app sounds like you do not want to be the programmer
Maybe someone else knows more and chime in............

Linux? Isn't that Charlie Browns best friend? Has a sister named Lucy, right?
Guys, my phone is a POS, ain't gonna go there at all. Samsung Instinct S30, until I find what I need a phone to do I am not giving up any money at all.
I know I can connect a cell phone to a PC with nothing but a simple BT dongle, but getting it to pause the music is the tough part.
Maybe I will just get another JVC KD-R900 and use it for shop tunes. I could run the shop stereo from it, just use the AUX in on the JVC from the PC.
Oddly enough, I listen to full albums, often several from the same artist, so I have no use for broadcast radio, nor sattelite or internet radio, just full CDs on my hard drive.
Thanks for the input so far, guys!

Hmm... I have just done something similar with my phone.
Here's the setup:
You'll need:
1. A hi-fi system
2. An Android phone (any would do, but some of the apps in Andriod is critical)
3. 16-32gb sd-card
4. Bluetooth dongle for answering phones
Plug your phone into the hifi using the stereo sound jack, and plug your phone into the charger. Play music straight from the phone, and when it rings, you can set certain music apps to mute the music while letting the ringtone through. I'm quite sure that the default music app from el Goog, does that well.
