Where to buy stereo handset for MDAII?
My handsfree is broken.
Bluetooth Stereo Headset
I assume you mean stereo headset.
I started looking for one of these around 4 months ago - there were a handful of solutions that came with a bluetooth dongle to plug into the player (going for the ipod market and pretty expensive $200+) but nothing that could would work directly with a bluetooth-enabled device.
Around that time HP launched the first - actually an OEM'd Logitech product (which is not sold direct) - but exclusively for iPAQ. (I think Toshiba now badge the same one). Mixed reviews.
Several others have since emerged (some with mics so can work as a headset too): the Bluewalker MP02 and the AnyCom BSH-100. The Sonorix OBH-100 has a dongle but can be used without (it also has it's own 128MB flash player - so you pay over the odds for functions you don't need).
NB Now here's the thing - to get stereo audio into these things your device needs to support a new bluetooth profile known as A2DP. I'm pretty certain that the Microsoft Bluetooth Stack (as used by my HTC Magician) doesn't support this - and I have seen no promises that it will ever. The Broadcom stack apparently does.
Would be very keen for anyone who can suggest how to get this working on my PPC
you can use this

and use any headset with 3.5mm connector
i use this one
http://www.expansys.dk/product.asp?code=114076
it works perfectly but does require the dongle
because the ms bluetooth stack dont support A2DP which the headset use
but it works just fine with the headset profile

I searched jack stereo HF, better with microfon.
From BT HF I like Nokia HS-12W
On some forums people writed that connected stereo BT. But for it need to change register. I some time downloded cab file fore this. But not tested it.

Attashed file for device for BT1.2. But...
expansys is not a danish online store the link i gave was just to the danish part of it
they have sites in many places
you could try going to a normal radio hifi kinda store and bring your xda
and try out their 2.5mm to 3.5mm converters and se if they work
i cant see any russian expansys department but they are also present in polan and letvia and Ceské Republiky

I am planning to buy a BMW. THis car offers a bluetooth kit to connect your phone to the car, you know this stuff to use your phone while in the car without actually touching it and talking via the car audio system bla bla bla..
Anyway, i wonder if these kind of car bt kits are able to play music from my trinity, too? if not, what other ways are there to listen to music in the car via my trinity?
anybody made any experiences yet?
Thanks for your comments.

I know here are some devices that connect to the audio out jack and emit a low intensity fm signal that can be captured on the car's radio.
I had that for my wizard and magician. But the quality is poor. Besides you would have to buy a mini usb to audio jack converter plus you can not use the mic anymore plus it looks like a nerd had had some time to frickle some cables together...
you can try with the parrot mk6000 here
http://www.parrot.biz/uk/products/parrotmk6000
it's an installation hands free, that includes stereo stream profile (A2DP)
in BMW you can hide too the mic under the case of the original mic location
ah, by the way, it's mooooore cheaper than the original BMW one!
The BMW bluetooth kit is not that great, most stock car options like that aren't, even the dealer will tell you that and probably tell you it's only really meant (TESTED) with Motorola phones. If you do get a BMW with a Bluetooth Kit, you're going to need this as far as phone functionality is concerned when it comes to Bluetooth on the BMW, you're going to need Jetware's Bluetooth Extension found here.
http://www.jetwaremobile.com/
The bigger question is why would you bother, it's not like you have that much storage on your Trinity to play audio for music. A better option instead of investing in 3rd party bluetooth options is to get the IPOD option with the kit, this way you have stereo controls and the IPOD sits in your glove compartment so no wires or anything. Not to mention you could always just burn a CD full of MP3, even my stock BMW radio can play MP3's burned onto a CD.
Trinity and BMW
I have a Trinity with the Dopod Test GPS ROM. It pairs perfectly with the BMW system on my E90 320D with Pro Sat Nav, and all the contacts are visible on the Sat Nav screen...most of the time. Last night I could only find those on the SIM Card, but after driving off this morning they are all there again (580 of them). I haven't tried Jetware but it doesn't seem to need it to work.
The Beemer has a 3.5mm audio jack in the console. Get a USB headphone splitter/adapter for your phone and plug your Trinity into this. It will then play through the BMW system.
Excellent information mate. Thanks a lot. So that means I only need to get a usb to 3.5 mm adapter and everything else works fine.
Thanks again.
I wouldn't put out too much hope.
BMW bluetooth is tempremental to say the least.

My friend you are good... BMW comes with the Ipod connector and you want ot lisiten to muzic from a PDA... i bought Lexus GS300 and it do not have an iPod connector i have to pay few hunderd $ to get it fixed...
life is a ***** you will never get what you want and you will never be satisfied with what you have...
just for your info Lexus GS has the bluetooth phone hands free built in with there mark levinson audio system but its not stereo so i am not sure if the muzic u play from your PDA will be good quality, i tried the FM transsmitter for the iPod but in the end i have to move to cable connection as the sound quality was bad from time to time and i was not doing justice to the 14 speaker Mark levinson system...
BMW bluetooth in E91 320d works!
All,
Bluetooth connection works with my BMW 320 Touring (Model E91 from 11/2006) with BMW stock Bluetooth (Feature SA644) and my P3600 (in fact I have a Vodafone VPA Compact GPS running WM5).
The SIM Access profile is enabled using the HTC-provided application "SAP Einstellungen" (probably in English SAP Settings) on the P3600. The P3600 can be operated using the Steering wheel keys (Volume, Receive/Hang up call, show numbers in SIM on the iDrive screen, browse and call numbers and dial numbers using the speech-to-text function of the BMW iDrive). I have the "basic" iDrive system "BMW Business" without the full maps on the iDrive screen, but the Bluetooth feature is the same for both iDrive systems.
BMW has a phone compatibility list and in that list only the MDA Compact III (that is HTC Artemis/P3300) is listed, but all modern HTC phones using BT 2.0 and the SIM Access profile should do. T-Mobile confirmed to me that this also applies to the T-Mobile Vario II (equals HTC TyTN).
Speech quality is like with my old Nokia 6310i, the only catch is that BMW does not offer a charge cradle for extUSB connectors, but a Car-to-USB charger will do. Also, the BMW has a 3,5" Stereo socket in the Console / Phone cradle area to which I connect the P3600 using a 1-to-3 extUSB to 3,5" adapter, then music can be played back using the built-in BMW iDrive stereo system.
I have recently purchase a SONY DR-BT20NX stereo wireless headset that is SUPPOSED to work as a hands free head set too. It's not behaving and wondered the following:
Does anyone run one of these and can advise?
Are there know problems with BT Stereo headsets on the Trinity that require tweeks?
It seems to be OK when playing music but when set as a hands free unit the phone will not ring, it will only sound in the earphones. It will not respond to an INCOMMING call only an outgoing one. NONE of the advance functions work when making or taking a call so I have to use the buttons on the PDA!
When used as a stereo headset it does seem to stop start and pause music ok from the button on the headset, and even skip to the next track. But as mentioned, NO functions work from the button on the BT headset when a using the phone, let alone the advance functions the thing is supposed to offer.
This is the second unit I've tried as I returned the first one to the supplier as I thought it was faulty as it was do too many stupid things.
Thoughts chaps...?
Sorry not much help with your specific model but I can report that the Trinity works well with the SonyEricsson HBH-DS970 both for audio and to manage phone calls. All buttons work properly.
Are you sure your model supports the Handsfree BT profile? I thought all phones and phone accessories were part of the SonyEricsson joint venture portfolio and Sony would not produce phone accessories under its own brand.
Read this, Sony BT20NX worked seamlessly (both A2DP and AVRCP) on Wizard :

@Anonimo
I did think the same way you are, until i see it myself on a store shelves... I really don't understand why either...
Anyway both DS970 and BT20NX have necklace design... or you may called it "gene"

I tried this in one of the stores and found that it was NOT working properly with my Trinity (WM6 Rom). It was skipping horribly. Gave up after 5mins of trying. The square design of the center piece makes it looks like it came from the 90s.
Anyway, I tried the http://www.itechdynamic.com/en/products_spec.asp?cid=2&pid=02050 I-Clip Radio and it worked out of the box (Flawlessly). Even the Cyberion Voice commander (for handsfree dialing through wireless bluetooth) works beautifully. Bought it after 10mins of trying, used it for 5 days now ... no regrets! It comes with a 3.5mm audio socket so you can pair it to your favourite Sony EX headphone or the over priced Shure headphone. Sound quality is unbelievable. Try it ...
Just wondering if MIZZO1628 eventually got Trinity working with the Sony DR-BT20NX earphones? I really like the look of these, and am willing to do some reg hacking if necessary - but not if its going to be a dead end...
I also have the Sony BT headphones, and they have always been a problem with every rom (HTC Wizard included) that I have used.
I nearly always must edit the registry to listen to music, and the phone call function only works for outgoing calls.
I should have known better than to buy something with 'Sony' on it, but there was a recommendation elsewhere in this forum.
Hello!
I'm looking for a nice priced mobile carkit (no headset!) wich can handle more bleutooth connections at the the same time. Like my trinity and my office phone, an good old nokia 6310i. Can anyone help me, the only ones i've found on the net are build-in things....
greetz Niels
was useless post, reffered to a carstereo with BT build in, but you want a mobile thing...

There are only two solutions. Both I think are not what you are looking for. Both are MutliPoint connections. ( you can only use one phone at a time)
1. Headset ( which you do not want ) eg jabra 5010.
2. Or the handsfree system car kit by FWD. (http://www.funkwerkdabendorf.de/con...ID=14775&dbc=648a1f6aac7531e97dba991cb0bed8d7)
AUDIO COM can be buddied with up to 4 phones and has also built-in sim car holder/ reader.This uses your car radio installation or you install a seperate speaker .
I have both my P3600 + my nokia 6310i so I can switch between my private phone & my business phone. And if I ever forget my phones there is the built in sim that I can use ( a second sim card from my business phone).
It was fairly simly to install. ( I got it done in 30 minutes) You can download the instruction booklet from the same link above.
I have looked high & low for asuch a soluton and I think I have found the best so far for 2 phones.

I am too cheap to buy a bluetooth headset. So,
"Is it even possible to stream audio from a laptop or any other music source to winmo phone over bluetooth or wifi, so that I can use my current kickass wired mobile headphones"
Ive been trying to get something similiar to work myself, any progress from other members would do well posted here lol
~Dark
Did you get any progress with this? I would like to play my laptop (Ubuntu) music on my phone whilst I go into the kitchen (for example) and I can't be bothered taking me laptop down. If not, I may have to find some wifi solution (though I'm not being too optimistic).
Yes it can work - but - you need a A2DP source that can transmit to the phone...
There is a product that nokia do that I have which is a A2DP gateway box which can either act as a receiver or transmitter to an A2DP phone - but I am not sure what protocols it needs to work... I assume, but dont know, that it works with general A2DP because it will receive from my S710 & Touch Diamond phones - although I have tried the transmit part of it yet the documentation clearly states it will transmit...
the device has phono stereo input & output ports which can be rigged through to whatever sound source you have in mind...
As I say though I havent personally tested the A2DP transmission facility but I very much doubt Nokia would say it worked if it didnt...
Hope that helps...
Well, if I already have an A2DP source, how would I go about getting the phone to recieve it?
news about it please?
I was about to start a new thread for this lol
I want to stream music from my macbook to my phone, and hook up my phone to my home stereo. That way i dont have to waste money on a a2dp receiver when my phone has the capability.
Is there an app for that?
Hi guys.
I want to buy a new head unit for my car in the next time.
My requirements are quality audio, mp3 via USB and/or SD card, nice and simple look, multiline display AND bluetooth handsfree set.
So I am very interested in this car stereo: Kenwood KDC-BT61U but its not working with ANY Windows Phone 7!!
I tried it with my HTC HD2 WP7 7740, HTC Titan and Nokia Lumia 800.
It looks like that most of the car stereos still dont support WP7.
For now it was only pairing with ALPINE CDE 126BTi. Its a good quality car stereo - no doubt about it - but its just crappy looking.
Is there any chance to change registry or something to enable some other bluetoth protocols or I dont know what else to get it working?
Kenwood said that they THINK to work on an firmware update... ok I think everybody knows what that means...
Thank you!

I haven't had any problems pairing bluetooth with the ones I tried and I haven't heard of other people having issues either. Now if you're trying to use Zune support on the stereo (don't have time to look right now but I know I've seen it before), I can't help you. Bluetooth audio won't be as good of a quality as using a cable connection but it does give you the ability to skip forwards and backwards from the head unit.
I just got a new lexus and it works fine. At plays whatever music I am playing on my phone
For me the handsfree communication is the most important thing.
When I was in that shop I saw a lot of devices showing up in the bluetooth list but only a few were car stereos.
I need a solution for my Kenwood if possible...
