I use jabra and if I have the phone in my pocket, the sound gets tons of static, my a2dp headset tends to skip when the phone is in my pocket, out of the pocket it works perfectly, if I put the phone behind me, thus my body is in between the headset and the phone, i also get tons of static even though the distance is 20 inches.
I tested my 3125 smartphone against the Touch cruise and the 3125 range was three times farther then the touch cruse. Back to mobileplanet this heap of **** goes.

The radio stack on the test ROM makes a HUGE difference
I have the same issue even with the new radio--bluetooth strength much weaker than my old trinity. Wonder if there is a registry setting to boost the signal?
this phone is brutal, with 3g and bluetooth on, I drop calls like no tommorrow,it seems when driving it is even worse. I seen it where it has perfect signal and for no apparent reason, it drops the call. It just gives me three faint beeps when it disconnects. I don't know what it means, also these phones are not assembled well. this sucks for 700 dollar phone, I did try the new radio also, it didn't make no difference other then I didn't get disconnected on 3g as much but bluetooth still sucked, my 3125 I measured again has 3 times the range,just having your hand in between the phone and the headset gets you lot of static on the headset. I sent mine back today. Bluetooth is critical to me,I figure HTC would at least get the bluetooth right but I guess they are a mess right now with all their issues. Hoping to get hp 614 instead.
I am using the Jabra BT3030, works like a charm. This is with the default rom.
Plantronics Explorer 510 here. Absolutely perfect sound.
Parrot MK6100 car HF set. Crap, thin sound reported on the other side. Low volume.
To be more specific- both sony ds200 and itech r35 have good sound, no static but the range is very poor and easily blocked by a human body. The sony sound is much better probably because its bluetooth 2 with a better data rate. The a2dp (only with the sony) needs the "a2dp fix" and a fresh reboot before using in order not to have the drop outs. All told, not much different than with my trinity but with less range. Very disappointing considering price and another year to perfect the system. HTC really does need to work on the drivers and software before selling the device. The average user is not going to go to all this trouble and will be very letdown.
Is eny different between this two phone? I read that have many problems with orbit2, is the same with Touch cruise, same problems? Now i have o2 orbit and thinking to buy orbit2 or cruise, but i m little sceptical, becouse of problems..
Thanke you!
Nobody knows?
Is any test between these to phones on net?
Thanks!
IMHO the o2 has a better form factor...it's more rounded...
but other than that, i'm pretty sure its 100% the same exact hardware on the inside...and as a touch cruise owner, i can tell you it's a lag ridden slow ass POS..return it while u still can, cause drivers aren't coming any time soon

Don't take that for gospel. I have owned many PPC's going back to 2000 and i can tell you from my experience, the TC performs just fine in day-to-day operation. As a matter of fact, it performs much better than my last 2 devices, a Treo 750 and the KJAM.

I have no such "problems" with my TC. However, if you want to nitpick, the FM antenna is not very strong so there can be interference if used in a place like a metropolitan city.
Other than that, I have not had any problems.
4.) bad painting
all the time...all you have to do is be viewing a web site in whatever browser and press the phone key. Depending on what other applications you have open, and how much ram you are using, it can take up to 1-5 seconds to fully "paint" the dialpad on the screen, piece by piece.
If you are scrolling through anything, lets say the programs menu, or a website, the screen flickers, and lags.
I can remember back about 15 years ago, to my first desktop PC...it was a pentium 133 MHZ, with an ATI 3d card that had 8MB of ram I believe, and it ran windows 3.11 for workgroups, and then windows 95.
Lets just say even that comp (if it were still put together) could out do the touch cruise graphics wise.
As for the other problems you are describing, I have not had any issues with those. For the most part, it's just the graphics \ user interface stuff and lack of proper video drivers.
The actual radio hardware is fine.
If i were you, I would wait until all the issues are worked out before you spend alot of money on a handheld..unless you really need it. I'm actually thinking of selling my touch cruise and getting an Atom V.
both are same inside, but i'm on my 3rd O2 Orbit 2 due to cosmetics, i get the feeling the new 'stylised' case for the Orbit 2 is rushed, as all 3 have gaps, off centre screen and now my 3rd one the GPS plug keeps falling out! lol
i'd go for the original 'design' as most complaints i've heard have been about O2 version - BUT just cosmetics, not hardware.
i really can't be bothered to send this back, but will think twice about what i upgrade to next :/
or a website, the screen flickers, and lags.

If you're using PIE, there is a fix for that. After applying the fix, scrolling is just fine.
I also have no scrolling issues using Netfront 3.5.
cosmetics i agree with that.
if you look in the accessories thread, there are multiple posts about the top screen being crooked and not glued onto the other screen, hearing snap backs when tapping on or around the corners.
Also I agree that the micro-sd hatch is very poorly designed, also along with the GPS plug.
Just a thought, that keeps recurring though my mind...why didn't they put more time and thought into these devices, when they cost upwards of $1000.
Unless of course, they made it this way, cosmetics and software, purposely...
But that's just me...there are some people who don't seem to have a problem with the way this device performs.
I think though, that I'm being over critical, because all of the previous HTC devices I have used, have never had problems that have even come close to this, and also, they didn't cost nearly as much. I just expected so much more from the TC.

On the TC
1) Wi-fi is fine
2) Only used BT to transfer files between laptop and phone, works fine.
3) No problem with earphone
4) not sure, the actual radio ROM (reception, etc) or FM Radio. 1st one is fine, 2nd one reception can suck.
5) Sux donkey balls. See the post about dialer skin lag. very true.
6) Never happened.
The device is fine overall with day to day use. but sometimes stuff just won't freakin work or will lag. every once in awhile my GPS will take forever to lock or when it does it will be off by a bit. sometimes windows live mail won't send/receive when i want it to. other times i feel the device just can't handle multiple things at the same time. opening audio manager when you have several hundred music files takes about 5-10 secs. then when listening to music while typing an sms, you will feel some lag while typing as opposed to typing with no music playing.
I have an Orbit 2 ...build wise its fantastic. Before I bought it, I was going to buy the iphone, the salesman in the O2 shop gave me a demo on the iphone's rigidity and build quality, he held the iphone flat in his palm with the screen up and slammed it down hard onto a wooden desk from a height of approx 1 metre....it looked very impressive...when I got my Orbit 2 I did the same.....not even a scratch....
Also thought I would comment on BT issues..since I failed to mention it in my previous post
Handsfree works great.
I have a handsfree system in my automobile, and I have a motorola HS850 as well.
No problems whatsoever.
Also, activesync works great over BT, so does internet sharing using the PAN.
File transfer takes a long time, but that is to be expected, since BT data transfer rates aren't as good as USB.
A2DP however, sucks the big one.
I've tried 5 different a2dp devices\headsets...
It's all lag ridden, staticy at times, and sometiems it just plain stops and skips for 5-20 seconds.
It seems like whenever you use a2dp it lags the whole friggen device as well..
I emailed HTC about this and their response was less than helpful.
They gave me a bunch of a2dp headset models that they have "tested"
and then told me that just because they were tested doesn't mean they are fully functional without issues.
I tried to tell them that it wasn't the headsets and it was the device itself, but they didn't seem to listen to what I had to say.
Never tried a2dp, but i don't have a hard time seeing this happening with this device. just the kind of thing to be expected. and i wanted to have stereo bluetooth to listen to music, etc. is it really that bad? guess i won't be trying that.
as far as build quality, it's good so far. except the loose volume switch on the side that rattles. kinda lame there. i've heard of the orbit2 jog dials falling off. there's another thread about that somewhere.

I'm one of the ones not having a problem with my TC. I agree the web using ie is slow but is also on every other wm device I've had. So I use opera mini.
Upwards of $1000?? Where the hell are you buying it anyway? That's a bit exagerated isn't it? I concur tho that phones are getting more and more expensive and the quality of build is not equal to cost. Actually my gf's t-mo go phone cost $40 and is seemingly indestructable.

You seem to have a lot of complaints. However, I can tell you that I have experienced no such lags as you mention using A2DP. I use a Moto S9 when I work out at the gym and no problems at all. I can even surf the web while using A2DP using Opera Mini or Mobile without issue. Keep in mind that I push multi-tasking on my devices.
I will say however, that using the S9's with the TC in NYC is crappy due to the weakness of the BT signal. I used to have the same issue with my Treo 750 using WM5 then when I upgraded to WM6 the issue seemed to lessen enough to the point where I didn't quite mind the "occasional" skip.

Did they up the ram? Because 64mb is unaceptable. Causes freeze-ups and shut downs. Gotta have 128mb minimum.

Hm..I don't get it..
I tried those and they had the same problems as all the other ones I tried.
I tried them in my house, working out, airports, planes...no matter where i went they were the same. I dunno man :-\ I am having alot of bad luck lately...
And also, to comment about the price thing...the Sedna costs 1000 and the touch cruise is currently going for 700-800...I paid 850 for mine but i got it after one of the first shipments to the wholesaler. This is in the US though...I've heard these same exact phones cost like $50 in hong kong. Dunno if it's true but...search google checkout for the HTC Sedna, and see how much they cost.
$50 for a Cruise in HK??? no way. link?

Yea, surgex0, you might wanna do some investigation, b/c A2DP works perfectly for me also. No skipping, great quality, and I can multitask w/o a real slowdown in performance. I've used it with my Samsung A2DP headphones, my Sony A2DP input/output adapter for my home stereo, and random A2DP demo products in stores. No issues here... Maybe try other headphones, or if you are on a custom rom try the original rom.
A2DP is pretty crap on this device drops out left right and centre... apparently there is a patch for the tytn for this issue, can it be ported by one of you techies????
yes, the polaris is quite bad with bluetooth, my TyTN is MUCH better! For instance, I have a Motorola S9, with the TyTN I can be in another room and still have perfect reception, but with my polaris I can't even hold the device in my hand without chop chop chop...
so if someone could port the fix that would be great, but I don't think that is the problem, I believe it is the radio that needs to be fixed. I mean, you can tweak the os and regsettings for longer distance, but then you loose the quality, and imho the only way to increase the signal strenght is to change it in the radio itself...
but hey, someone could try, or port the broadcom stack (which probably woudln't work because of the above statement)
The TC sucks whith Motorola BT headsets (doesn't matter which one... generaly), but works good whith others...
The TyTN has a different processor, different motherboard, on SW solutions, and of course a different Radio IC, so it won't be possible to install/adapt that device specific patch for our TCs...
Also there are several threads dealing whith BT, no need to start a new one...
The other threads are about people trashing there radio roms this is a different subject matter - so i'm quite happy the new thread was justified...
People who dash around telling people not to start new threads or search are truly the most annoying people on the planet - if you don't like the thread don't read it a.hole
There is a thread whith BT headsests and their problems already...

The question could have been asked there, and google would still find it.
I just got a brand new crusie and I love this thing. I had a Tilt, then the origianl 3450 Touch and now the crusie.
I've got it all set up and it seems to be working great on my AT&T network. modded someof my setting with cabs/ htc customiser.
The only problem that is KILLING me is the bluetooth performance is HORRIBLE. Both with my Motorola stereo S9 headset and my Jabra XJ10. The stereo moto set break in and out if I move a little or put the phone in my pocket. If it's right next to me not moving it's ok. If i run with it in my pocket, NO chance!
The regular jabra works ok with the TC right next to me as well, but if I walk even 15 feet away it just breaks up.
Both of these worked GREAT on my touch?
I remember when I had my Tilt there was a reg edit and an option in the Kaiser tweak for bluetooth performance. Has anyone had any problems with BT performance?? Any way I can Fix this????
Also, I'm either in E, G or H. Att here in chicago has a huge 3G network that supports HSPDA. I assume E is edge. Is G 3G or GPRS?? When my TC is in H is that the 3G or HSPDA? I don't see a 3G symbol?
I really an very impressed with the crusie, but REALLY need to figure out the BT issue as I use my jabra and moto S9 EVERYDAY...
Any help would be highly appreciated!!
You have installed the bluetooth hot fixes from htc.com?
I installed both the BT hot fix cabs.. The problems in the hot fixes (when the device goes into sleep mode) etc is not what I am experiencing but I tried them anyhow.
If I remember in the kaiser tweak there was some setting for bluetooth band width for performance?? Can we use the kaiser tweak with the TC? I assume not.
Is there a value in the reg that can be editing for this???
thanks again
FYI -- I have the same issue with my S9's. They worked great with my Touch, my Shadow, and my Dash but they work awful with the Touch Cruise. You pretty much have to hold the device up, near your head, to get a constant connection. My Plantronic 855's work fine though. Given that it's S9-specific, I don't think you'll find a registry tweak to fix it, though I could be wrong. If I had to guess, I'd say it's something that needs fixing with the S9's, not the Cruise -- wish they'd made them firmware upgradeable
Fixing Polaris choppy bluetooth stereo
I am using an O2 XDA Orbit 2 which is the UK O2 networks variant of the Polaris/Touch Cruise. I experienced the exact same problem with choppy stereo bluetooth sound on a pair of Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 headphones (which performed perfectly with my original HTC Touch). I performed the following registry tweaks and this seemed to improve performance significantly:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A2DP\Settings :
Name: UseJointStereo
Value (DWORD): 1
Delete these two key/values
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A2DP\Settings:
- BitPool
- MaxSupportedBitPool
I will give that a shot and I'll let you know.. What is the bit pool and the max??
Ok---
Under my settings, the use jointstereo DWORD value is already 1? what was yours?
should I still delete maxsupported and bitpool completely? any idea of what those do??
You want to turn joint stereo off, and that would be changing the number from a 1 to a 0. That won't help with distance, but it will improve the sound quality considerably. It's pretty much the same with any WinMo device -- for some reason joint stereo is turned on as a default. I returned a lot of stereo bluetooth headphones before I found this setting. I thought they were all crap, turned out to be the setting. If you Google 'bluetooth' 'joint stereo' you'll find info on how the setting degrades sound quality.
It's a shame this is turned on by default, the average user will never be poking around in their registries and wouldn't have a clue as to why stereo bluetooth on their WinMo device sounds so bad.
I've not changed the other settings the post mentioned though, if you do let us know how it worked out. Personally, I've switched to wired earbuds -- the best sound quality of all

UseJointStereo is set to 1 (this was the default setting); I don't actually know what the other two key/value pairs function is. I did some google research on choppy bluetooth stereo sound a while back after purchasing my XDA Orbit 2 and experiencing the terrible bluetooth performance. Apparently, the effect of making the changes I suggested is to improve the overall quality of the audio and reduce the 'choppiness' (intermittent signal connection/disconnections).
Both BitPool and MaxSupportedBitPool should be deleted (i.e. both key name and value) for the full effect of this tweak.
For more information on these registry keys just google BitPool, MaxSupportedBitPool, usejointstereo and polaris (all in the same search query).
I use sony bluetooth dr-bt21g stereo headphone. Installed hotfix and done reg tweaks. If i put my phone in my pocket it breaks up really bad. If i have my phone next me; amazing sound.
i think moral of the story, if ur on a plane or in the house then bluetooth headphones are good. If ur out washing the car, jogging or even walking they are crap so i have to revert back to wired ones
But I'm searching high and low to see if there is a fix for this. I cant believe that the Athena had very decent bluetooth connection. No problems at all. But switching over to Polars, I have to consider giving up my bluetooth headset. That aint good.
Is it an hardware problem? Is it possible the device is to small? I dont know
I hope they fix this!!!!
i dont know! it is bloody annoying when i paid over 50£ for my headphones. I tested in on my imate jamin (now with a2dp) and its the same so i dont think its the cruise. I just think bluetooth has not evolved enough yet, just a thought tho and i will test, wonder if the wifi conection interferes with bluetooth signal?
OOOOOHH.. Good insight timmymarsh. I havent even test thoroughly the wifi.
Good thinking buddy, I'm going to try that...turning off wifi and turning on and see if there is any difference!!!
BTW...thats good to know that it might not be the TC. I read somewhere on the Polaris thread that the bluetooth setting on this phone were suppose to be set up for newer bluetooth earpieces.....I dont know how true that is!!!!
I have never had an issue with bluetooth or wifi on my TC But I never have both on at once, If I am using bluetooth, wifi is turned off and vice versa. In the past I have had really big issues using lets say ericcson phones with moto headsets but if I upgraded the headset to the latest firmware they worked fine. I really do think that the issue is the headset and not the phone.
mm i really should learn not to post after drinking wine hence removed

I havent tested properly turning wifi off when bluetooth headset on yet, but yesterday i was washing my car in trousers that had no pockets, so i stuck my phone down my pants against my ass (ha ha). Reception was brilliant when i was moving around; previously when i had put my device in my trouser pocket the reception was terrible. I guess my body was acting as an ariel extending or improving the bluetooth signal hence the good reception.
Extreme i know, but at least you next have a valid excuse when someone says "is that something in your pocket or are you just pleased to see me......."

I did eventually test the bluetooth signal and quality with both wifi on and off and both my polaris and prophet.
With wifi on the signal was terrible when deivce was in my pocket, with wifi switched off the signal was good. The signal only started breaking up when with wifi was swtiched on and searching for an access point.
I now only use a2dp with wifi switched off. Im a happy bunny. btw my prophet never signal never broke once when jigging around the room, my polaris did a lil bit even with the wifi off, but there was a marked difference!!
Glad that worked out for you. For me, WiFi had no effect at all, on or off, the signal with S9's are just as bad and the Plantronic 855's just as good.

I've been having bluetooth problems with this phone since day 1 & I'm wondering if it's just my phone or if anyone else is having the same experience. No matter what rom or headset I use, I get a craptastic connection. I don't have any problems pairing devices, but I can't get 10 feet away from the phone without it disconnecting and I can't even turn my head without the audio cutting out. It also randomly disconnects for no reason & sometimes won't reconnect until I reboot. This has happened with every rom I've tried & every headset too. I've bought & returned multiple headsets thinking it was just my Blueant, but it happens with every one.
Could I have a faulty unit or does the bluetooth on this phone really suck this bad? I listen to podcasts & music all day long at work so I need to have a decent connection. Opinions needed please.
I think it may be a bad phone.
I have and used the following bluetooth devices:
Plantronics 590A
Jawbone Icon and Era
BlueAnt S4 which I use in the car. And auto connects before I sit down to drive when I have it on.
Sony Ericsson MW600
And Jabra Pro 9470 (office phone setup that connects to my phone via bt)
All connects without a problem. Have you done a titanium backup and perform a factory reset? And after the reset use titanium backup to restore app and data only and leave the system settings alone. You can restore the wifi stuff if you like. From there that's like a fresh install. Hope that works for you.
Yeah I've done many, many wipes & fresh installs & nothing helps. I don't have any problems connecting, I just have problems STAYING connected & listening to audio. It cuts out constantly without me even touching the phone. I've never had such shoddy bluetooth on any other device.
*sigh* Looks like I may be doing an exchange...

Well before leaving the store...if you are going to a brick and mortar to do the exchange, bring the bt headset with you and try it out there and try to replicate the problem with a new phone.
I do not have range problems but I don't usually have my phone more than 5 ft way from me when talking on it via bt.
I have a replacement on the way for bluetooth problems,people complained of a horrid background noise and the range was maybe 8 feet before major static would kick in

My BT sounds like crap! People say it sounds like I'm in a wind tunnel or they can't hear me that well, when they speak to me it cuts in and out.
This is when I connect to my Parrot BT in my truck. I know its not the Parrot system because my HD2 works fine with it.

If I bring it to the store, would they exchange it for me? I ordered it directly from T-Mobile, I didn't get it in a store.

horrid bluetooth sound quality
it seems a lot of people have been having issues with the bluetooth sound quality. i have mine paired with a motorola HF850 car kit, which has bluetooth v1.1, or something like that. i wonder if the problem is with backward compatibility, as people seem not to have as many issues with newer devices. would flashing a different radio potentiall help this problem? is it possible to downgrade the bluetooth version with a custom ROM? any other thoughts on ways to address this issue?
