AD2P...

I have an 8125 with Congular's/HTC's 2.25 ROM, and just got an HT 820.
Neither my Mac nor the 8125 have AD2P, and these past few days I've been doing a lot of researching. ROMs, Reg hacks, people wanting a CAB-install of AD2P, etc. Though all of the threads I looked at, especially here, are a year old. No response from the HowardForum thread I made ; I should have come to XDA first.
So, has there been any luck in another phone's ROM's AD2P profile being able to be installed like an app, or a Registry edit that can 'add'/enable it ? I found a Reg edit for the Dash to enable BT Stereo, but there were no corresponding items in my 8125's registry.
If the ROM is the only way, what would be the most stable, AD2P (, better than 2.25) ROM ? And it's full file name...
This is rather annoying ; theses headsets sound great, plugged into my computer with wire, but I can't walk from my computer – the intention I had for them ! Some time I will have to buy a BT dongle for my Mac, and hopefully I don't have to re-flash some new ROM to 8125, but I have a trip this weekend where I'd like to wirelessly use these, so, so be it...
And, while slightly off note, be there any Crossbow ROMs that support AD2P, and work well with WM5 applications ? (I don't know much about Crossbow, so maybe it's best if I stay from it, also for it's illegal... I'm assuming discussions are allowed though, but if not, just tell.)

I've got Crossbow Underground for a faw days, and it's working propertly.
Also I've got the Jabra 620s BT Headset. It's working even better on WM6 rather than WM5.
If you want to use the BT Headset on a WM5 ROM. You'll maybe need to search for "tornado" along the wizard forum. This works well to get the wireless stereo working.

I've heard goodof Underground ; maybe I will try it.
Is the 'Tornado' another ROM, or some hack ? I'll search it...

Some additional files and register edits to upgrade to AKU2.2 or just enabling AD2P or something

Thanks for the help ; the Tornado patch/mod I can't and don't feel like trying to get it working, so I'm looking at Crossbow.

I got the Tornado mod to work – halfway. I copied the non-CAB files where it said to, and then went here to download a Wizard-compatible CAB file. Now it works.

Tried the last option which is working so enough to install only that .cab

Problems with Skype.

Hi everyone I'm new with WM, before I had only Symbian. I have ATT Tilt which I've unlocked and updated to Kaiser firmware, with help of this forum. Before Skype worked perfect for me, I had WM6 pro, but now when I've upgraded to WM6.1 it wont work, during loading message appears: Failed to load file. I've tried to reinstall it for few times... no help. Maybe somebody knows any solution for that problem. Thanks.

Seriously, does ANYONE read anything around here before they jump into a new ROM? Would you jump into a pool BEFORE looking to see if any water was in it? How many threads have people already posted and said "NOT ALL APPLICATIONS ARE WORKING ON 6.1" Start reading, read some more, THEN post a relevant question.

Downgrade back to WM6? Though I think I read somewhere that once you upgrade, you can't go back. There was a thread where people were finding problems with their phones after they went back to 6 that going back to 6.1 again didn't solve.
I remember when Vista first came out and the reports of programs failing left, right and centre. That's one of the main reasons I'm not bothering to upgrade until the compatability issues are resolved...

Is there any alternative program, that is also works with Skype network? I know Fring, but it's not so good. Maybe there are others?

Verizon XV6600 Upgrading questions...

I wanted to see if anyone had some insight on which rom would be best used for my XV6600. I currently dont use it for a phone anymore and it is just used in my car for GPS (Tom Tom) and ocassional music through bluetooth to my stereo. I know newer versions of Windows mobile do not work with my phone, but I was wondering what the best upgrade would be for my current model. I am looking for something that would be easy to navigate without the use of a stylus since I use it only in my car. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I think you answered your question.
The only ROM you are going to find for that phone are ones that the carriers have released, and if they haven't released anything newer that what you have on your phone, that is your only option.

Yeah, I came to the sad realization yesterday... But I am trying to make the most out of what I have /w registry tweaks and will probably use SPB Pocket Plus and Time to configure the interface for easy access. If anyone else has any suggestions please let me know. Thanks.

Newbie to Xperia X1i & WinMo 6.1 needs help

Hi all,
First and foremost, my apologies to all if the subjects in this post have been covered elsewhere. I've had this 2nd hand phone for only a week and I find absolutely great. I have spent the most of the last week searching forums and websites for information. Learning about new technology is something I enjoy thoroughly.
I can connect it up to my PC via USB and BT without a problem. It will connect to my WLAN without a worry. I will probably have more questions on those subjects later.
The 3 main problems I have are to do with are (1) the SIM Manager and (2) the speakerphone volume.
The SIM Manager problems are to do with:-
(a) duplicate entries after copying SIM contacts to the phone,
(b) not being able to choose between SIM and phone as to which contact list to use and
(c) not being able to edit those phone contacts on my PC like I could with Nokia's PC Suite.
(1) As far as (a) is concerned, I used "Kaiser SimFix" as suggested elsewhere in these forums and it worked a charm until I turned the phone off. It then went through the process of updating itself. After the update and seeing "UPDATE SUCCESS" at the end of several lines of tasks I found that I had to remove the battery and put it back in after a reasonable period (and yes I do know about powering down such things and waiting for the system to drain residual power) and found that the system decided to do a fresh install of the OS and everything else. Consequently, I lost all my settings and the "Kaiser SimFix" CAB file and it's effects. Any help on this problem would be greatly appreciated.
In regards to (b) is there any solution at all?
As far as (c) is concerned, is there any software out there that will let me do this?
(2) In regards to the speakerphone volume, I have read about several registry hacks here and there that seem to have some effect on this problem but I don't think this is a viable solution as, from what I have read, if you turn the phone off you have to do the hack again. I don't want to be doing this all the time.
Are there any permanent solutions to my problems anywhere, other than buying the latest and most expensive of the new toys (which I would do if I had the money )?
Cheers and many thanks in advance for any answers.
Graeme

There are several solutions to your problems.
Get advanced config (do a forum search) or sk tools (commercial, google is your friend). Both provide settings whether to show sim contacts or not.
You can synch your contacts with outlook and edit them there.
There is a software floating around in the xda forums to improve speaker volume. Once again a search will help.

Hi altae,
Thanks for the qiuck reply.
I downloaded and installed the "Advanced Config" CAB and all went well until I went to launch the program itself. I then got a message saying I need to update my version of the .net framework. Am I correct in saying I'd have do that first? If so, how and where?
As far as using outlook is concerned, for private and personal reasons, the only M$ software I will use are there operating systems. If I had any experience using another type of OS I would probably go down that path, but I don't, so I won't.
I'm having trouble getting the Windows Update program on my X1 to do anything, and yes, I am connected to my wireless network and can surf the net from the X1. Update just sits at the checking screen and does nothing.
Where do I go from here?
Cheers,
Graeme

yes, you need 3.5 of .net compact framework as stated in the app's thread
it can easily be found on the forum or via google/microsoft
you can either directly dl to your device or to your PC first b4 installing

Thanks Draken,
I managed to get the upgrade to 3.5 without a hitch. I already like this WinMo quite a deal. It makes me look like I know what I'm doing. LMAO .
I'm going to have another look at this "Advanced config" over the next couple of days and see what else it does.
As far as the loudspeaker is concerned, the volume of the ringtones, alarms and alerts are all loud enough on my phone. I have been reading and searching for days on this topic and these threads all seem to be referring to those items mentioned above and the radio which I don't use. All I'm interested in really is getting the speakerphone volume loud enough.
I have found thread leading to a cab file called "OTPXperiabeta02.cab" and might have a go at that.
What are your thoughts?
Thats enough for now.
Cheers and TIA,
Graeme.

advanced config is what the name says: advanced
you can do good, but you can also do bad when overdoing it, so start easily, don't change too much in one go (most changes requires soft reset to take effect)
in case you get problems you have it narrowed down immediately to latest change
regarding volume, there are many threads out there claiming (and enabling) full volume for this or that, as I'm content with all available volumes I didn't personally try any of them, so I can't comment
the cab you named is not known to me, so again I can't comment
enjoy the device

If you dont like Outlook it is a bit more difficult to edit your contacts using your desktop. A solution would be to export your contacts to an xlm file. Once again I have to mention SK Tools which is really worth the monney it costs. But as always with Windows Mobile there is almost certainly a freeware out there that does the same.
Im glad you managed to get advanced config running. I completely forgot to mention the .net cf 3.5 requirement.

Hi Draken & altae
I'm definitely aware of making changes on a PC and would be more so on this new device because I know so little about them .
Unfortunately, with a WinMo device, you don't have the option of using the "Custom" option while installing software that you do with new PC software.
The OTPXperiabeta02.cab appears to have done the trick at the moment but I haven't had the chance to test it fully yet. It has been suggesated to me that the problem lies in the fact that SE made the phone with poor quality speaker so that they could sell more or their BT devices. I'm not so sure about this but you never know what the marketing management of a major corporation like Sony might come up with.
I haven't installed the "Advanced Config" cab yet and will do so with the advised caution.
As I'm getting sensible answers, I'm keen to keep going on this thread with other questions and my further discoveries about this toy unless directed elsewhere. Anybody else who feels like being involved with this thread is more than welcome.
Cheers,
Graeme.

No you dont have the same possibilities as on a deskop when it comes to installing a software. But many programs leave you at least the choice whether you want to install the software onto your storage card or if you'd like it to be installed in device memory.
Concerning your contacts editing problem: I don't know every software out there. I know that there are solutions to synch your phone with other programs than MS Outlook. Some of those solutions are freeware and others commercial. Look for relevant threads here at XDA or google it. I have always used Outlook and thus have not been in need to look for another program to synch my phone.
From what I read in the forums the OPTXperiabeta02.cab is the solution for your speaker phone problems because it (the cab) improves the volume of the speaker and therefore the speaker phone too. I can't judge how much this cab improves the volume because I have never used it (I consider the volume sufficient).
There is no reason to be afraid of advanced config. It's correct that you should be careful when you tweak your phone with this tool. If you change to many values at once you take the risk of running into troubles and not beeing able to narrow down the reason because you adapted so many values simultaneously. But you won't manage to destroy your phone with advaced config. The worst that can happen is that you need to perform a hard reset because you end up with a messed up operating system.

[Q] HD7 update problem related to U2M8107(?)

Hello everyone,
I would like to ask you if you know a way I can remove the U2M8107 and the effects it has from my HD7. The problem is I never put this in my phone and I do not know what it does. I know that I can't update my phone now for some months as the OS version I have is 7.5.
Additionally to this I have a startup screen of a car that says "Designed by ansar".
I know this is a noobish question but search engines only brought me to this forum.
Thank you.

Update:
Okay I managed to update my phone using a cab file I found here after reading for some hours ^^. The tutorials are very helpful and detailed. The only problem is that now under the information of the phone itself, it says it is a Nokia Lumia 800. However I'm sure it was for a HD7. Anyway the phone is working fine but this is the only issue.
