Bluetooth A2DP Widcomm update for i-mate jam

Does anyone have a Bluetooth A2DP (audio profile) update for the i-mate jam? I would like to use HP Bluetooth headphones with my device, but the i-mate jam uses the Microsoft Bluetooth stack which does NOT support the A2DP profile. Thanks in advance...

Widcomm's drivers are not yet compitable with Magician.......

widcomm drivers for magician
anyone working on a port of the drivers? i understand there are already drivers available for the XDA II... it would be great to be able to use Bluetooth headphones with windows media player on the magician!

Blue tooth head set - but not for phone?

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.

How do I route (phone) audio to computer via BT?

Hi guys,
I have an XDA ATOM and a BT dongle using Bluesoleil.
I've paired them both up and I am able to use the computer as a "Wireless Stereo" - thus rerouting music/sounds to be played via the computer speakers. Now I can play mp3's and other audio from my PDA direct on my computer speakers.
This is great, but not exactly what I hoped for. I was hoping to route the phone audio instead ("Wireless Headset"). That is, routing the audio that I hear when I'm in a phone call. I've configured the Bluesoleil application to have the "Wireless Headset" service enabled, along with all the other services.
The weird thing is, my Atom only shows up "Serial Port" and "Wireless Stereo" when paired with my computer.
Any ideas on how I could get it working?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You need to set yr Atom as Handsfree in yr Bluesoliel BT Software....

Hi,
Thanks for replying.
How exactly do I do that? I dont get any options which I can change when I'm pairing up the ATOM with my computer. It pairs up as a "Device name" and then BlueSoleil picks up all the services the ATOM is compatible with, ie. DUN/File Transfer. It doesnt seem like its possible to specify the ATOM to be a handsfree device in BlueSoleil itself.

look for the services after the device discovery..there are options for BT Audio..

I'm able to connect to my computer and use the Audio Gateway (in the headset mode) (computer is being used as the headset)
I can enable the handsfree when in a call. I'm able to see the number of the caller on my computer when the phone rings. I can answer the call from my computer.
Problem is I can't hear a thing.
I have switched the audio mixers between Realtek AC97 Audio (my soundcard), Bluetooth Audio and Bluetooth High Quality Audio and I still can't hear a thing. Is there a way to map my BT dongle's audio gateway output to my soundcard?

BUMP.... anybody?

The BlueSoliel software is notoriously crap, it's why it's used on all the cheap dongles, because they charge so much less for their licenses.
This should work fine with the Widcomm bluetooth stack on your PC, I have done this before as it was nice to use my PC's headset while I was gaming to take calls also.
Haven't tried it in a couple of years though, but it definately worked with Widcomm.

if i were to get a bluetooth dongle i would buy one directly from broadcom
(who makes the widcomm software)
because even if other makers also license the software
broadcom release firmware to match the later versions of widcomm
if other dongle makers dont newer versions of widocmm dont work or dont work very well with the software

Well that's the thing... with Blue Soliel I would expect this kind of a problem, but I have a dongle which uses the Widcomm Stack. I've tried everythign possible and yet no sound. I even tried it with another laptop which was using a Blue Soliel donle... tried doing it both ways... ie accessing sound on both ends... but nothing.

BT USB dongle with Itech R35?

Hi, i'm wondering if i can use my Itech R35 stero headset with any random USB BT dongle.
i plan to use it for my computer.
thanks!

It should work with any of them, but be careful to find one that supports A2DP and AVRCP out of the box. Doggles like from Jabra or I.Tech is probably the safest bet (I'm using the Jabra A320s with the I.Tech R35), instead of D-Link or some other non-BT audio vendor.

How to make WiMo my laptop headset?

Hy All, I'm looking for a driver or bluetooth application that helps me make my Windows Mobile my headset from laptop speakers.
I know that is possible to use Stereo Headset from WiMo to stream audio over bluetooth from WiMo to laptop. But what I'm looking is the reverse.
Anyone knows how to find it?
Please, don't tell me to buy a bluetooth headset (because I have 3). It's a enterprise project that I'm working on and the headset needs to be the WiMo device.
Regards,

it's up to the bluetooth stack on the pc if it shows the pda as a audio gateway you can
if it don't you have to get another bluetooth stack which does may require another bluetooth dongle if the one you have don't support the bluetooth stacks which support the audio gateway profile

That's is the problem. How can I configure my bluetooth application on the PC to recognize the PDA as a Headset so I can configure later as a default speaker of my computer?
Any clues? I'm using the defaul driver and bluetooth program of Windows 7.
