Hi
I just flashed my SGS with 2.2.1 and it seems that the bluetooth stack has not changed!
So is there any custom rom that contains the original bluetooth stack and that is will allow my SGS to be appaired with a Wiimote?
Thanks in advance.
I'm looking at the same thing. But I believe it would require some patch to the kernel's bluetooth modules.
The pairing mode is not supported by the kernel used on the phone. This could perhaps be ported from another source, if the hardware supports it...

JM7 is the latest Eclair build for the Galaxy S (not the captivate)
Wondering if BT works and if Sync Schedule for Exchange is there - the biggest things wrong with previous i9000 builds.
Thanks for any info.

bluetooth will most likely not be functional with a captivate kernel since it's the kernel that controls that, the ROM just chooses how to interface with it. since they weren't designed to be used together, they probably won't "just work" together without heavy kernel modifications.
as for exchange, couldn't tell you (don't have any exchange accounts)

The Froyo build is working with BT. And the BT chip should be the same between devices, so I am not convinced BT won't work.

They also use the same wireless radios yet the fmradio app doesn't work even with the i9000 kernel. We also have the same gravity sensor/accelerometer, yet that doesn't work properly either. It's more than just kernel. It's a combination of the rom, the kernel, and hardware access. Considering these are issues specific to running software not designed to work with the captivate, they will likely never be fixed by samsung so a new rom won't make them magically work.
As for bluetooth working on froyo, it works in eclair too for pairing, just isn't fully functional with audio

OK, let me clarify as i am hoping for experiences not speculation -
BT audio for phone calls works fine in Froyo with a captivate kernel according to reports but not in previous Eclair builds - has anyone tried BT audio in JM7?

I would love to know where you say someone said "BT audio works fine in froyo with a captivate kernel."
we have no captivate kernel compatible with froyo. when you flash a froyo build, you're using the i9000 kernel because there are no captivate ROMs available yet. if you try using the eclair captivate kernel in the froyo i9000 ROM, your phone will not even boot (have to fix through download mode)

My typo -I know the kernel is specific to the version. - i have not tried a Froyo build yet - but the fact is Froyo BT works for audio as reported in other threads. So it is not unthinkable that Jm7 could have working BT Audio on our Captivate.
Again, all i am asking for is if someone has any first hand knowledge, not speculation. I know what the older versions have as I have tried those - just tired of flashing ROMs for now.
If you tried out the Nexus S rom ported to the galaxy S, you probably know that the bluetooth drivers are capable of pairing with a wiimote unlike the stock bluetooth driver. Does anyone know of any rom with the Nexus S bluetooth stack on it? or does anyone know how i could possible put it in my current rom i'm using (cognition 2.3b8).
Also, could anyone make an odin version of cognition 2.3b8 please? flashing to stock every time i screw it up is annoying. If you can't, that's fine.

Would want this as well!
I'd love this too.
Cm7 has this

Maybe this is just me but most builds I install don't have a working wired headset. I have tried searching for a fix, but the only thing I have found is that it could be a kernel problem that has not been fixed due numerous kernel updates. Does anybody know of a fix that can take care of this problem, or know of a NAND or Clockwork build (preferably desire HD) where the wired headset works.
Yes, i have this problem with the wired headset.
Now with my Bluetooth Headset (Calypso BT) buttons are working perfectly
My conclusion is that the problem is.. the sound card driver =)
Correct me if i'm wrong, i'd be honored to see someone correcting me
when i use Gauner1986 ROM with ROM's kernel or MDJ kernel 9.2, 9.3, my Wired headset buttons are working fine, but when i upgarde to 10.3 oc MDJ kernel, it does not work anymore
I just tried the new CoreDroid rom (Jan 24) and it doesn't work. I also tried the revolution 2.3 rom and no luck.
+1 for this problems... Only Gauner1986 HD 0.3 is Work... Others HD or Z Build... does not working at all... so, i can't anwser my phone calls when i driving my motorbike... and control music player :-<
Gauner's kernel supports this function. MDJ's does not. It is that simple.
If you want your buttons to work, use Gauner's kernel.
The core Droid roms work great with wired headphones I'm using the supersonic with no problems

CoreDroid - the wired headset doesn't work.
So the question is what is included in gauner1986's or older kernels that is missing or modified in other kernels (like MDJ's 10.4OC)?

I think you're right. If you stick with a Cyanogen 6.1 Froyo build it should work. I am running NexusHD2-Froyo v1.9G NAND by tytung and it works fine with PowerAmp in case that helps.
CMYLXGO's BlueTopia v1.0.6n and the rest of his should work if you are looking for a Desire HD base.
PRJ kernel should work too...

Right! i am using CM7 with mdj kernel 10.4 it not working, then i change the kernel now it work like a charm .
Hi everyone, I see that in Cyanogen rom 7 there's a FM Radio app that is part of the system (I think). I have a gingerbread Stock rom rooted and with the SU and quite satisfied with it, but i would like to have something similar like the FM radio app. So my question is: There's an FM Radio apk for gingerbread stock roms?? or this is something exclusive of the Cyanogen rom ?
Thank's in advance
Cheers
Unfortunately, the FM radio app requires changes deep within the system framework. So, without a custom ROM, the FM radio app cannot be used. Your only alternative is to use a streaming radio app.

My FM app does not require framework changes.
It "almost works" on most Nexus One ROMs, except for audio.
I have an experimental method that can get FM audio out directly to a Bluetooth headset, but the audio quality is awful.
I'm trying to determine if the FM audio path can be enabled on stock kernels.
I've installed the last stock ROM in my mother's Nexus One, and I finally achieved to run FM radio.
I used the last custom kernel from @intersectRaven (downloaded last version at http://intersectraven.euroskank.com/kernels/Nexus One/2.6.38.8/20120112_14XX/) and the old free SpiritUL application (I don't remember where I downloaded it).
At this moment, I only found an inconvenient: you can't use the radio and bluetooth at the same time, you need to turn off the radio and then turn on the bluetooth.
I hope this response can help some other users which are searching a solution for this problem as me.

Yeah, there might have been 1 or 2 now rather old versions of Spirit UL that were effectively released as free.
Newer versions can work with BT on, using an HCI/Bluedroid shim library, on 4.3+ AOSP ROMs with /system/lib/libbt-hci.so .
But you still can't get FM over BT on Nexus One.
Hi,
I have a bluetooth keyboard - IGO Stowaway XTBT01, and have successfully used this with CM7 and some older Samsung Stock roms in the past. I was hoping to use this on ICS but have not yet found an ICS combination of ROM and Kernel which work.
None of the recommended apps from market worked for me even though the keyboard pairs and sometimes (but most of the time doesn't say) 'connect to HID device'. But even with this, the keyboard doesn't work.
After flashing multiple kernels on top of JW1/JVZ and others to test this, I found that CF ROOT always works perfectly (maybe due to the fact that this is close to stock kernel?) and all of the other kernels do not work for me that I've tried (eg., Semaphore, Speedmod and others). I did notice that for kernels like Semaphore there are many options one can choose in the tweaks but I'm not sure if this willl improve the compatibility (eg., CIFS, TUN support and others--I don't know what these mean).
Does anyone know if there is a way to get the kernels such as Semaphore or Speedmod, etc. to work with this Bluetooth HID device? Are there settings to change you're aware of? I do miss the benefits of kernels like semaphore (speed+batt life+ color+sound) offer but am not sure if it's possible to get them working with this. Any thoughts appreciated!
Cheers,
CM10.1/Stock works
I know it's been a while and JB is out now, but wanted to leave a stick in the sand for future users. Here's my experience with JB:
CM10.1 nightlies (the recent 4.2.2-based ones) seem to work fine for me with the stock kernel. Switching in other kernels (tried Semaphore and Devil) seems to break the HID in the manner you described (pairs correctly, but no connection thereafter). I'm sticking with CM10.1 for the moment but investigating workarounds.
Update
Checked the logcat after one of these pairing failures on Semaphore, found this error:"Failed to open uhid, err:No such file or directory". Looking into this...
