Hi all,
is there a (cheap) solution for transmitting a Bluetooth signal (over my HD2) to Aux Audio? That would be great! Oh and I'm not looking for this for my car, but for a stereo music box (hope this is right word in English!)
greats!
Check these out ..... i bought them froom woot for 12$ ...you can connect ur cell phone to it using btooth and then put the aux cable instead of headphones..

And if you still decide to use it also as a handsfree for calling purposes check the sound quality of the mic before buying (call few friends with it and ask them if they hear you). I did not do it and now I have to use my Philips shb7100 just for listening music over a2dp because the mic is crap (or the AD conversion mechanism)
Bluetooth® Home Stereo Adapter DC800 [Motorola]
I use Motorola Bluetooth® Home Stereo Adapter DC800. this was a costly item 5 years back running up to 100 USD...but now a days you will find seconds everywhere on line and even the new one's shouldnt be too costly....
I am very happy with the performance...I connect my HD2 to this by Bluetooth
And DC80 has a output wire to my Home Theater....and it plays wonderfully.
I also have a Input wire into DC800 from my TV headphones jack....this allows me to use my Motorola HT820 headphones to listen privately late night shows when others are asleep....
try to find them in your country,..who know you might get a good deal on ebay/online.....
I always had my HTC Tilt 2 playing music in my car through bluetooth. Now with my new HD7 I noticed the sound quality is very bad. It sounds like its streams at a low bit rate so all the high frequencies create crackling distorted. Overall sound doesn't have any richness to it. I use the BlackBerry Remote Stereo Bluetooth Gateway: http://www.amazon.com/BlackBerry-Re...M0/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1289972227&sr=8-11. The quality of the Tilt 2 paired up with it was really good. I think they need to fix this pronto.
Yeh I have the same problem too, its exactly the same if I use 3.5mm jack aux too, just far too quiet, causes so much distortion, neither bluetooth or 3.5mm sound any better. If you put headphones in you can tell there isnt enough volume at all.
Really needs fixing, seems more of a software issues as I've seen people with various WP7 models complaining about low volume.
Right now I'm having to use my old Touch Pro for audio streaming in the car.
Mine sounds great through headphones and car stereo (BT).
In the car I prefer the sound to my iPhone 3GS through BT and line out.
And the volume is loud enough using Ultimate Ears 5vi IEMs with plenty if bass
Enable the SRS Surround
Sound quality is always in the ear of the beholder, so difficult to fully compare what people consider good or bad.
I find the internal speaker, headphones and line-out (via 3.5mm) too quiet. Quality seems ok from the 3.5mm jack though.
But I tested the BT recently and at high volume it didn't sound very good on a beefy car stereo (with sub). I was disappointed, but had no basis for comparison at the time.
I have this issue too. I'm using the Sony DRBT140Q. The audio sounds perfect when connected to my G1 and Sennheiser BTD-300. But when connected to the HD7 the sound turns kind of...fuzzy on the mids. Gonna go try out other HD7s at the T-mobile store and see if it's a problem with my handset.
I also have this issue. With wired headphones the sound is OK, but with bluetooth audio the sound is bad. I tested it with a jabra BT3030 and with a SonyEricsson MW600. The sound is good with both Headsets when they are connected to my notebook.
HTC are not known for good blutooth support, I was hoping they would get their act together with this phone.
3.5 jack is fine, but bluetooth quality is aweful! was fine on the HD2.
On BT, the bass and mids are ok, but the highs are terrible, they are really crackly/distorted. You can get away with it on dance, because its not too noticable, but in Rock music, it just sounds ****e.

If you have the phoned paired via Bluetooth Sound Enhancer makes no difference to the sound whatsoever. Even if connecting to 3.5mm and using sound enhancer it sounds terrible in my car.
Think I'm just gonna have to carry on using my Touch Pro 2 until something is changed with the volume. I just think there isnt enough, you have it too loud its distorted so you turn it down and then turn the radio up but its no better because you get a lot of hiss etc.
If your listening though AUX make sure all the sound enhancements are off, they make it sound terrible. They only make an improvement through the phone speaker.
They dont affect bluetooth at all though.
So is anyone going to fix this?
I have Mozart 7 and fits the same description as previously said :
Bad audio quality when connected with Bluetooth headset (Sony Ericsson MW600)
(crackled/distorted, a low pitch noise at the background, sounds like interference from other things) - ive tried it on everywhere its the same
sounds perfect when its wire connected
This is making me really angry since i got this Bluetooth together with my mozart 7!!!
Can we notify anyone about this in particular??
I have the same problem. Bad quality when streaming via bluetooth to my car radio. With my HD2 and Windows Mobile 6.5 I had exactly the same problem for which there were registry hacks to improve this. Do you think the same registry entries still exist on Windows Phone 7?
Bluetooth audio quality FIXED!!
Ok guys here it is. I figured out how to improve the Bluetooth music streaming quality.
1. Your device must be unlock to do this. Even if your device relocks it doesn’t matter.
2. After unlocking device download and install the XAP file RegistryEditor 1.1.0.0. This is a registry Editor for WP7.
3. Once you have the RegistryEditor 1.1.0.0. on your phone do the following registry hack:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A2 DP\Settings]
"Bit Pool"= change Value data to 51.
As I suspected the problem was in the sample rate settings. After I did the hack it sounded beautiful and at full sample rate. Some people don’t have the ear to catch the difference. I like to think I have a very good ear for this sort of thing. Being a musician and aspiring sound designer. I listen to all my music in the car through Bluetooth stereo gateway so I rely on this Bluetooth functionality 100%. Here is an example of the “Value data” number translated to sample rate.
Medium Quality
Bit Pool=35, Sample Rate=44.1 kHz = 229 kb/s
Bit Pool=33, Sample Rate=48 kHz = 237 kb/s
High Quality
Bit Pool=53, Sample Rate=44.1 kHz = 328 kb/s
Bit Pool=51, Sample Rate=48 kHz = 345 kb/s
Last Note: Even if you cannot unlock your phone anymore it won’t matter. As long as you gain access to that registry and change it. Unless you do a hard reset or Windows update you will need to repeat the process or unless Microsoft slaps their head about this issue before they release that update.
Wow that sounds like a plausible solution!!
Has anyone else tried it yet? Im still considering whether to hack my phone or not.
Try it. You wont regret it.
It works! did it last night and music was perfect in the car this morning! so happy now!
Just need a reg hack that allows me to download big files from the marketplace through my own 3G signal and not wifi now and ill be very very happy!
Also set "UseJointStereo" to 0 since one of the common joint stereo algorithm uses a lossy audio compression. BT Music sounds great with these changes!
What a difference
Thnx, sounds awesome.

Verizon Trophy Fixed
Thanks for this fix! I finally got my Verizon Trophy fixed after
1. Trying to deploy RegistryEditor 1.1.0.0 only to get a deployment error
2. Trying to deploy RegistryEditor 1.2.0.0 only to get a deployment error
3. Editing the XML file in RegistryEditor 1.2.0.0, which successfully deployed the .xap but wouldn't actually let me edit the necessary values BitPool and UseJointStereo. I could change them in the editor, but as soon as I navigated away from the editor they would return to their defaults.
4. Attempted this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1271963 only to be unable to run Connection Setup app
5. Completed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1271963&page=64 after about 10 iterations of trying to open the Connection Setup app at the exact moment described. I didn't think it would work, but it did.
So, in summary, in order to install a registry editor (1.2.0.0) AND have it edit the BitPool and UseJointStereo values on my student developer unlocked Verizon Trophy running official mango update, I had to do an interop unlock.
Took me a few days to sort through, but I'm so unbelievably happy with the result!
Has anyone experienced trouble with a paired bluetooth headset & the NC? Whenever I try to listen to audio it stutters and when I try using the mic all I get is static for the first second and then the headset promptly disconnects. The NC says there is an audio problem but I don't know enough to get more info than that.
I've tested my headset to confirm it still works properly but am at a loss on how to improve the quality.
have the static problem plugging my earbuds into the audio jack. want even really aware the nook had blutooth.
Remember the range of BT with CM7 is currently measured in inches not feet move an inch past range and your sound stutters and dies..
Some folks say they get 2-3 feet in range, so far the best I have gotten with 3 differing BT headsets is about 7-8 inches and none of the microphones with them have worked.
Do we have an indication on whether this problem will be solved in the future? Finding a way to increase the range of BT (unless it is gimped by design) should be on top of the list by the developer community.
The possibility of allowing the Nook access to a blutooth microphone would possibly help make the device even better -- as it is its only main shortcoming.
Hi,
I have a fringe use case where it would be really great if I could get the audio on my SGS to output on the headphones jack and the bluetooth at the same time. Is this possible from a chipset perspective?
Darky 10RC5.3, Dark Core 2.1, Lagfix On, Samsung I9000 SGS 8GB + 16GB uSD
I'd say yes to hardware... but good luck finding software to do it.
I'm really surprised that android doesn't have more flexible audio routing (per app volume control, control over whether music stops when on phone call, etc etc)
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.
