Hi I am new here. Please guide on how to enable the Audio Gateway preference feature in my XDA IIs. The latest Broadcom Build 3500 doesn't help. I am dying to listen music through my BT headset. I know the sound quality will not be good, but I really like to listen music wirelessly. Please help. Thank you.
Please guys, really need some help here
Bump, we all want this - anyone had any joy with this yet?

The music from the one-sided analog bluetooth headset is very lousy unless you get the digital headset from NextLink.
In Malaysia you can get it here:-

Also, lisening from your bluetooth headset will drain your headset battery very fast.
Alternatively, you can get the iPHONO bluetooth headphone or the HP bluetooth headphone instead which gives very good quality sound.

I know about the HP stereo BT headset and I know with a mono BT headset it will produce lousy quality music but the problem is that my XDA IIs still does not have the Audio Gateway preference (even upgraded with the latest BT patch and the unofficial BT patch). U can check it at the Bluetooth settings and choose the headset/handsfree service part then tap on advance. Only telephone voice calls preference is supported. I had seen the ipaq's h6300 series, it does have 2 preferences for its headset/handsfree settings where one is for telephone voice calls and another is the Audio Gateway preference. Even if I buy the stereo headset, it still won't play any music coz the Bluetooth does not have that service preference (unless that stereo headset package provides a upgrade to the current Broadcom stack). Hope u get what I mean here.
Damn Broadcom and O2! It is such an expensive device but does not have the feature of a lesser device like h6300 series
Just read a thread that registry tweaking can be done but the information is kinda messy. Hope u guys can help me out here. Thanks.
i have the same problem. same exact problem. grrr.. XDA IIs with a treo 650 headset. i only lack the servie for audio gateway. i want this to work so badly even with the poor quality. if anyone please help.
stereo - Blueangel - possible?
Anyone up to this yet? :roll:
I've found the thread, but, as you say is kinda lousy... If only I could understand how to make it, I would help to make a wiki... :roll:
Anyone else the same experience? Contrary to almost every other WM device I have used in the past, the voice sound quality both on BT headsets and on parrot carkits is way below par. It sounds thin and metallic.
When using the speaker on the device itself (held up to your ear) the quality is excellent, so to me there is a major flaw in the the BT implementation on the Kaiser. The x7500 sounds way better, so it's not the OS itself.
Finally, someone else with good hearing
I have exactly the same issue. Even it's tolerable but is some situations it's very hard to hear the other party. Doesn't matter what headset I am using - Nokia BH 900, Jabra JX10 2 or Jawbone - they all sound thin. I really hope that there is something in registry that can be changed to resolve this. Or maybe a different DLL. In fact, this is the only complain that I have about Kaiser. I've tried this suggestions but none of them worked unfortunately.
Increase Audiogateway capability:
HKLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Bluetooth/AudioGateway/Capability
(Dword:69)(Default is 37)
[I'm assuming this is a bitrate setting, but not sure how this differs from those above]
4-Change the Bluetooth channel from the default:
HKLM\Softare\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Device
From there open the subfolders and find those labeled channel. The DWORD key value is the channel number. Change the number to something other than the default.
[i've only tested up to channel 7 because I'm not sure how many channels there are. This seems to have improved issues with interference and intermittent drops, but these issues seem to have more to do with where the device is in relation to the headphones than anything else. You'll have to experiment to see what works best with your gear and environment.]
5-Increase the Bluetooth microphone sensitivity:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway\Mic Volume
(DWORD:10)(Default:5)
6-Increase Bluetooth earpiece volume:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway\Spk Volume
(DWORD:10)(Default:5)
[again experiment to see what works best with your headset and environment]

Ouch. Just came out of an escalation meeting for which I was forced to use the TyTN II for almost an hour over my Sony Ericsson HBH pv705 headset, and I have to rephrase my first post.
The audio quality is leaves not just a bit to be desired, it is just blatantly bad!
That, I feel, is the only *real* letdown of the TyTN II
Have exactly the same issue here. Was using it today in the car using the Mercedes bluetooth kit, and the sound was very thin and tinny. On my Hermes the sound was full and fine.
It's like listening to one of those shortwave type radios
OK. Now we have to determine is that :
Hardware issue
or
Software issue.
I've briefly used one of the preproduction units back in June and as far as I remember BT was OK. But I can't be sure 100%.
Anyone still using pre-pro units? Please, check how BT headset sounds like.
I really, really hope that this is software issue. Otherwise I am afraid that I am not going be able to keep the unit .
Sorry to put this into the mix but I have actually superior sound quality using a Parrott Car Kit and a Motorola Stereo Headset as compared to previously using these devices with my Hermes device with the newer WM6 ROM's.
I have made no changes but just wanted to share my experience.

It's probably due the fact that car kit has already plenty of bass and stereo headset is using a2dp. My stereo BT headset sounds good as well.
Handset itself sounds good, wired handset sounds good. Again, I really hope that there is a way to change something in software that will fix this problem. i guess, we have to wait until device is in more hands and some hackers will find the way
In that case, my second addition to the mix to counter yours. Aside from my SE PV705 I also have a Parrot carkit (3200 LS-Color) and I have the same poor audio quality over bluetooth ...
bt
same here ,i paired it with my car and it's worthless..i can hear the person but they can't hear me.this the worst bluetooth phone ever.

Just damn! Flagship HTC device... It's better be software fixable.
Using Sony BT Stereo headset - quality pretty good - better than TyTN.

We are not talking about stereo A2DP quality. Again, stereo BT sounds very good to me as well.
nono - this is simlpy the voice call quality through these headphones - not using the A2DPprotocol - just headset protocol.

I use the Sony MEX-5000BT headunit in my car in handsfree mode. I've used it with both the Kaiser & Wizard, and I can't tell any difference in sound quality between the two phones in handsfree mode.
A2DP is a different story -- the Kaiser is much better.
I'm having the same BT issues with my phone. Voice quality on my original TyTN was great through BT. But with the TyTN II, it is sub par.
OK, this is rally confusing. As far as i know all units have the same ROM/Radio builds. Or are they?
Let's start to put numbers:
Mine
ROM 1.56.405.5
Radio 1.27.12.11
protocol 22.45.88.07H
BT is too quiet and tin.

Same as above. BT sounds great with my Scala 700 earphone.

What type of device you have been using previously?
When you switch from handset to BT headset on the fly do you hear difference in voice quality? Doesn't seems like BT headset doesn't have the same frequency range as a handset?
Greetings all,
How do I adjust the left-right balance on the Tilt? I am using the AT&T WM6.0 factory rom with a plantronics voyager 855. I tried installing AudioBooster but that does not seem to help.
Tried using the headset with another phone? Might be it having some defect...
I don't have another phone that does stereo (A2DP Profile). But I did consider trying to pair the headset to my PC. It's also possible that the issue is with my hearing. Nope, not an issue with my ears, just swapped L/R and the plug-in earbud is still louder.
Regardless of this being an issue with the phone, the headset, the song, or personal preferences, I should be able to adjust the balance and swap L/R signal if necessary. Such a feature would likely be common to all Windows Mobile 6 phones. I'll ask this question again in a more general forum.
Cheers,
Aaron
hello, I did this stuff here Alfa Romeo & Galaxy Tab integrating seamless the tab and my dashboard.
The overall result is very good, except for the audio volume, and being not an audio expert I fear that this is an impedence problem.
To make it very short, I just connected the headphone plug with the inputs of a 50W ("rms", real 50 watts they say, not fake 50w as standard OEM car audio), a kenwood KTP-500 thing. The problem is that the max volume is VERY VERY low in comparison to whatever oem standard ****ty car audio device, and that is quite impossible to me, and also for audio tuning shop owners I enquired for some advice.
So I think I need to convert, somehow, the signal to be good for the amplifier.
The amplifier has got switch between "low gain and high gain" but it does not change that much.
So I've got 2 plans to get an at least "normal" audio volume, amplifying the signal with some kind of "line amplifier", or find a guy (perhaps here? ) who can explain me the setup error, so that I can fix it. Shouln't be that difficult, but I'm ignorant in this stuff, and surprisingly, neither do know the people that works at kenwood/alpine/whateverBlingBling-audio shops in my city.
I also tried to debug my installation connecting a PSP, some other phones, a small television, an old cd player... all with the same low-volume result. So it's not a GalaxyTab (p1000, the good 'ol one, since it's exactly 2din fit) issue, but more general, having knowledge in audio signals may help...
So what is the point with connecting directly an earphone jack to the inputs of an amplifier? It's so amazing after 1 year having the tab as audio unit, it's a shame to have this volume issue è__é thanks for any clue
p.s. the audio quality is excellent, anyway, no buzz, humming or distortion. It's only... too low
I have the same problem, the volume is very very low, especially in a telephone conversation using speakers. However the sound quality is excellent. The problem is that you can not have a conversation without a headset ,when youare in a opne place.
Hi folks. Just moved to a different carrier, we were previous Google Pixel owners, but our new carrier doesn't support them so we had to move to S10s.
The big complaint here is the horrible sound quality coming from the phones to all of our Bluetooth devices. Cars, speakers, living room sound bar. Static-y noises and what sounds like just a far lower quality across all devices than what comes from our Pixels which we still have. Our kids Iphones have no issues playing clean and clear either.
Really frustrating issue, we both use our music service daily and this is darn near a deal breaker.
Any ideas or solutions out there? I've searched high and low to no avail. Thanks in advance!
Anyone? No one else has this issue?
is your phone rooted? Is this a snapdragon or exynos version? If its exynos version, rooted, installed aptx bluetooth codec and viper4android for better audio
Exynos, fully stock here.
No problem with bluetooth audio.
US Snapdragon phone. Completely box stock. Bluetooth even connects at an audibly lower volume. It sounds almost like it's connecting through one of those old FM Bluetooth transmitters. It's terrible. I've fiddled with every solution I can find online for others suffering the same issue, nothing works.
Actually, I didn't want to root my S10. However, the sound quality via bluetooth is so bad that you cant avoid Viper4Andriod.
That was also the case with the S8. At the point Samsung has huge deficits.
Without root / V4A you just have lousy sound quality.
I'd really love to find a workaround that doesn't involve rooting, but if that's all there is.....
I had the same problem with snapdragon unlocked variant. The factory audio quality over Bluetooth was terribly bad. It was tinny.
Interestingly when i used "seperate app sound" feature it has improved. But not as good as exynos variant when i compared.
Steps to follow.
Advanced Audio setting -> seperate app sound -> Turn ON ( select the app and bluetooth device )
Let me know if it works.
Never did find an answer to this question. Found that when it's plugged into a 3.5mm port it's even more noticeable. It's got to be a software issue. The static starts as soon as any music begins, and ends on any song switch or pause. You can actually hear the static 'kick in' right before the sounds start to play. It's horrible. Doesn't do it on my backup phone, or either of my kids' iPhones. Just these two S10s.
Hey man, did you ever find a fix? all of a sudden I started having this issue. If I turn "Call audio" OFF it is fixed and the quality is great again, but with Call Audio on, its crappy, on my car, or headset, same behaviour.
The phone seem to be using the Call Audio profile despite no active call.
Did some more testing, if I hit on "Disconnect" on my car system, I get the "call disconnect" sound and after that the audio is great. The issue seem to be the phone thinking its on a phone call and using call audio profile to stream the audio.
