Hi all, apologies if this has been asked before - I did do a quick search but couldn't find an answer!
I have an MDAlll and when I'm riding my motorbike I put it in a waterproof see-through bag.
1. Is it possible to listen to my mp3 music using bluetooth?
2. I use TomTom 5 with a bluetooth GPS receiver. Is it possible for the audio instructions to be heard via bluetooth?
Cheers
John
the ms bluetooth stack dont support that
the vidcomm should but dont seem to support normal headset profile
i just got the bluetake I-Phono it solves all issues
but i guess it would be hard to wear under a bike helmet

Hi guys,
anybody can help me to find out using the bluetooth earphone hearing the mp3, i'm using the mini xda , also is it possible to dial phone number using the vito voice using the earphone
thanks
I´m looking for a solution of similar problem too. But there seems to be a problem in Windows Phone Edition. The Bluetooth stack works together only with the radio stack. Means it supports only the Headset or the Handsfree profile.
What we need is the support of an Audio profile. In the case of stereo output there is another problem. Bluetooth is too slow to transfer it properly.
Maybe you will find other hints when looking for other key words in the forum: "navi speech output", "widcom bt stack" or "bth tools"
I´m looking for it because I want to hear the output of Navigon on my bike (that would be mono). The widcom bt stack is under construction and may support the profile in the future. The BTH Tools is an addon to the MS BT stack and solves some problems with Headsets and GPS mice. :?
Another solution would be to fit an bt transmitter in the earphone jack and use an separate receiver with normal earphones. But the harware is really fat, because its usually developed for home entertainment. :shock:
i'm getting these
http://www.bluetake.com/products/BT420EX.htm
they work
Okay, I found them too. But with a price of about $ 200,00 they are to epensive. I won´t divide them into parts to fit them into my helmet.
Hi guys
I've not used a bluetooth headset with my MDAIII before so please excuse a few simple questions!
I have a motorbike and use Autocom to commect to my phone, mp3 player, radio etc etc. Trouble is - lots of wires!
My question:
Can I use the MDAIII & bluetooth headset not only for the phone function but to listen to media player or listen to a film etc etc, or is it exclusively for the phone?

The guys here are desperately trying to find ways to make that happen. Unfortunately, no news yet.
as far as i read then you can install vidcomm bluetooth stack and get the music part working but then it will not work as phone headset
or you can stick with the normal stack and only use it for phone headset
i just use this
http://www.pdacorps.com/default.asp?key=pages/iPhono.htm
then i can do both
and ditch the dongle if
anybody else solve the issue
Is it possible to use a bluetooth headset for ALL audion not just the phone? I already use Pocket Skype but I want to be able to use my bluetooth headset - since it doesn't consider the Skype to be a phone call - how can I make it use the headset for all sounds produced by the device?
All help and advice appreciated. All good advice and help appreciated more. All useful advice and help... ah, now we're talking!

think people have been able to get headsets working for normal audio using the broadcom or vidcomm bluetooth stack insted of the ms one
but it also seems that those bluetooth stacks dont support the headset profile so people cant use their headset for phoning anymore
Interesting catch 22 - phone bluetooth or other sounds bluetooth - but not all sounds bluetooth.
Isn't it silly things like this that make a great device irritating?!(Rhetorical)
yes it's silly
guess it comes down to ms not liking bluetooth which they dident invent themselfs so their stack is kinda thin
not sure what vidcomm and the rests's excuse is
i personaly bougth the bluetake iPhono headset which have a dongle which makes it possible for me to use my headset to work with both
phone and music

If what you say is correct, then there is a bit of a conundrum. The telephone operates via the bluetooth stack - so how does the gps receiver connect? There is apparently a way for the PC element of the device to use bluetooth, so why not audio?
I think using an external Btooth transmitter id a bit OTT. This is a software fix requirement.

Hi, I am thinking to buy the Bletake Bluetooth I-Phono BT420Ex + BT430EX with my Qtek 2020 / Xda II, And I want to know it will work properly... my ROM it´s 2.20CHS.
And if yours answer it´s positive, how?
You connet the audio dongle to the output of the pda and the headset with the pda by BT?
Thanks
yes as bluetooth headset it's supported
and the xda dont have to support the dongle
as far as the xda see it the dongle is just a wired headset
the dongle take care of everything wireless
heck if you want you can connect the dongle to something else
and still have it as bluetooth headset for the xda at the same time
when you get a call the headset disable the audio from the dongle and act as a normal bluetooth headset
Hi,
according to this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=245461#245461 , I assume that you have this bt headphone and you have used it with satisfactory results...
Now, I still have a few doubts :
1) Do you connect the dongle to the pda and use it to listen music?
2) You use the bt manager of the pda as a handsfree?
3) Or do you use the dongle with the pda to both listen to music, and talk on the phone?
4) Or do you never use the dongle at all...?
5) Did you upgrade the bt manager of the pda? If this is true, where can I do it in the forum?
Thanks for all...
1 yes
2 yes
3 only needed when i listen to music
i just use bluetooth tools
and the org ms bluetooth stack
if one have a bluetooth stack which support a2dp
the dongle is not needed at all
Thanks!!
Many thanks for your patient and reply.

I am currently using the A2DPToggle which I find very handy, especially the signal strength bar. The Bluetooth mouse & SmartBar also captured my attention...
I just got my new bluetooth car stereo installed today and A2DPtoggle is a must have!
I was just wondering if you thought instead of one click to sync up we could get it to automatically based on if the phone portion of the bluetooth hooked up. Basically in my car stereo the phone sync automatically and i have to hit a2dptoggle to sync up the music portion, why couldn't we just go based on whether the phone portion synced up.
I believe it may be dependant upon the device you are trying to sync. For example:
A Stereo Bluetooth headset or vehicle Bluetooth reciever may automatically launch it's stereo profiles whereas a simple handsfree-equipped headset may have to be sync manually.
Since A2DP correlates directly with stereo profiles and not mono (or basic handsfree profiles) it may be safe to assume this much. With that said I have (2) Bluetooth headsets; a Jabra BT8010 (Stereo & Handsfree) headset & BlueAnt Micro X3 (Handsfree). Both sync automatically with my 6800 but the Jabra launches it's stereo profile while the BlueAnt launches its handsfree. I do not have a vehicle BT receiver to test with. I also use no2chem's 5047 rom which has the lastest BT stacks...
love that companies products. specially the keyboard.
I'm sure a bit of mortscript could sort this out pretty easily.

Hi,
I'm wondering if there is any way to stream audio music and/or FM radio from Windows Phone 7 (I have the HTC HD7) to a non A2DP Bluetooth headset (I have the Jabra EasyGO).
It seems that I can only make and receive calls with it.
I've searched all over the place (and web) and cannot find a way to do that.
The only way is to get a new Bluetooth headset with A2DP capability?
Is there is a workaround, please let me know.
Thanks.
I don't know of one. As far as I know, the Headset profile is mono-channel only (plus another channel for the mic) anyhow, and probably quite low bandwidth, so it would likely sound awful.
Thanks for your answer GoodDayToDie.
But I don't mind for quality... Actually I'm not interested to listen for audio.
I just want, for example, to hear drive directions when I'm driving using navigation software (Navigon) instead of hearing from the loudspeaker.
Hmm... I thought the phone *would* use Headset profile for driving directions. Weird. I find the WP7 implementation to be so bad that I prefer to keep using a 4-year-old Garmin Nuvi instead, but I could have sworn I tested it and it came over the BT (and my car only has Headset, not A2DP). Maybe poke around in Settings?
Alternatively, if your car has Aux In, you could use a ripping cable (double-ended headphone cord, they're very cheap) and then the phone will play instructions over the cable into the car's stereo. This is also a great way to use the phone's music player, including Zune Pass if you have it, to play music in the car (I do this all the time). It uses less battery than having Bluetooth transmitting constantly would anyhow.
