Hi all,
Is anyone out there who knows an solution for the bluetooth problem with the parrot Rhythm 'n Blue carkit? When it connects it keeps on synchronising and doesn't stop.
I'm using NEW WM6 Pro Business V7 by laurentius26 with radio 1.18 because I didn't like the 1.15 radio. Now it works very stable with better UMTS signal. This is in my opinion the best WM6 so far.
I had these problems also with WM5.
The carkit works fine, by the way, but it's irritating.
Try to use this tool from Jetware: www.jetwaremobile.com/
Its´s a kind of a bluetooth audio gateaway patch where you can set up the sync data or limit it for some handsfree devices which support dor example 25 numbers...
I think it should work.
Hi all,
Laurentius and I are looking at resolving the current issues with A2DP (Many fixes will be in our latest rom, however issues vary from headset to headset.
Some work fine, others are poor quality and some receive PDA lockups or long pauses between streams.
Please could those with A2DP issues, and the need for this protocol to work properly, post the following information.
The current Rom you are you using
The make and Model of your headset
A list of issues you are currently having with A2DP.
Please also try the following to resolve the issue.......
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A2DP\Settings\
Remove (Delete the following entries)
BitPool
MaxBitpool
and add the following
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway]
"Capability"=dword:0000003C
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A2DP\Settings]
"SampleRate"=dword:0000BB80
"UseJointStereo"=dword:00000001
Please then remove (un-pair) your headset and Soft Reset
After SR please re-pair Headset and test A2DP again.
Please keep this thread clean and only post A2DP issues with the required information listed above.
Thanks,
Cheers,
Beast
Hi Beast,
Isn't:
"UseJointStereo"=dword:00000000
to get proper stereo sounnd?

I have latest V1 rom from Lt.Cmdr.Ivan - BT headset is Philips SHB7102 (works great with my Wizard and SEk800i). I did exacetely what U have asked for (but i have left jointstereo=0) and nothing happend. It sounds like 2s of music folowed by 15s of silence, then again 2s of music and 15s of silence. I messed with bitpool walues and couldn't find any working set. I'm afraid that's something wrong with max BT speed and not with A2DP implementation. I had BT speed switch app when I used broadcom BT stack and A2DP works great. Unfotunatelly normal mono BT headset doesnt work at all with this BT stack so I'm back to original stack

I've found that with MS stack and my Jabra BT620s the best bitpool is 33... good quality and good range (no interruptions)... jointstereo must be 1 otherwise the sound uses too bandwidth...

I also have Ivan's V1 Rom and have an Itech Radio headset. I completed the changes that you suggested and found that A2DP works well it did before the changes too. I have noticed that the sound quality may be a little better and the pauses are slightly reduced.
The main problem I have found with A2DP with all AKU0.5 ROMS is the pairing of the headset. If you soft reset you phone while the headset is on, A2DP will be auto detected when the phone comes up. If you play music then the music starts and stops and the phone becomes unstable. The work around is to turn your headset off, soft reset the phone. When the phone comes up turn the headset on and activate A2dp by pressing the button on the phone. Music then plays fine.
The registry changes you suggested did not help the above problem. AKU0.5 ROMS all seem to have this A2DP autodetect error on reset at least with my headset. Very frustrating.

Hi Maniware,
Can you please further shed light in detail on the jointstereo?
Why jointstereo to be 1 or 0?
Thanks in advance!
KOR!
It goes well with joint stereo. Seems that it needs much less bandwidth. I've heard that jointstero=1 means that there is mono sound in effect.
"UseJointStereo"=dword:00000001 << mono
"UseJointStereo"=dword:00000002 << joint stereo
"UseJointStereo"=dword:00000000 << stereo

qtek 9000 - Logitech Mobile Bluetooth Headset
I'm not quite sure if my problem is right here - because i still have the original (last build) WM5 ROM (130.96 GER, Radio 1.09.00, ExtROM 1.30.185 GER).
I encounter statics while using the Logitech bluetooth headset, which is a mono one, making phone calls impossible due to stressed phone partners ... Only the person on the other end of the line encounters interruptions, me, as calling, not.
This is the main issue for me to update the ROM, and I'm trying to find out if any of your nice new ROMs will be of help.
Anyway, I haven't tried yet I'm afraid to destroy my device ...
thanx
Anna
my feedback:
device:
itech r35
Problems:
sound muted after 2 seconds of music.
audio players used:
audio manager
windows media player
i tried your advices, but not worked for me....
Sometimes it works when i put 70 (binary) on both Maxbitpool and bitpool...but on next device activation or reboot it just stop working...
A2DP and wireless
Just to be clear, my results are when I do not have wlan activated.
I changed UseJointStereo=dword:00000000.
Quality is good and it is definitely stereo.
Still have the auto detect problem. Interesting though, if I walk out of range for a while with the headset on, when I come back into range the A2dp is autodetect and the music starts playing through the headset again, quality is good. If I soft reset with the headset on and A2DP is autodetected, the headset is unusable.
If you do any of this with wlan on the quality is very poor with starts and stops.
Also noticed that audio manager does a better job with bluetooth than gsplayer, I think audio manager may have better caching.
Freezing
I think there's a problem with the latest core os files (AKU 0.7.0)... i havent' tried the MS BT stack, but with the Widcomm, using the bluetooth for anything more than 1 min, completely freezes the phone.
It does when listening music, transferring files, etc... if BT is idle, nothing happens (except than freezing the device when the Comm Manager gets confused and enables BT instead of gsm radio).
So it seems related to the core files.
Switching on and off, transferring data thru BT is a critical task and subject to lockups.
For the record, i used to use the BT A2DP and file transfer without ANY problem whatsoever in my old and horribly-underpowered HTC Tornado (omap850 @195mhz) so IT MUST WORK!
im using your latest rom and Motorola HT820 does not have a problem with it... even in the earlier roms you cooked... even tried it in indra's xoj version and darkforce's rom..
just wanted to clear it out just so you can rule something out...

A2DP problems should go away, but then will come the freeze-after-1-min problems, like with my HP Stereo bluetooth headset
I've flash to your latest WM6 AKU 0.7 (WIFI Fix update 3) ROM just now. But sadly to say, the freezing thing still occurs after playing music with Audio Manager. It even freezes when watching videos using WMP. Usually around 1 minute it shall start freezing. FYI:

I had the Qtek 9000 with italian version WM5 and i flashed WM6 with no problems. if you dont wanna have any problems unzip the attached file and add in the folder the 3 files (ms_.nbf ; nk.nbf ; radio_.nbf) from your prefered WM6 ROM (I personally use the latest Laurentius & Beast ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=325466) start into bootloader (Power+backlite+softreset) and ROMUpgradeUt.exe
VERY IMPORTANT: you have to charge your batery before any flashing
I'm having problems using my Raphael in combination with a JVC KT-BT1 car stereo.
When, for example, I'm running TomTom, and the phone is connected to the car stereo, all sound is sent to the car stereo through A2DP. No problems there, BUT: the start of each route description is cut off. It looks like the connection has to be set up every time TomTom says something.
One way to solve this is to keep for example a media player running in the background, so that the A2DP connection 'stays alive'. This is however obviously not a nice way to fix this.
I must say that I've had the very same problem with my previous phone (N95), so I'm kind of suspecting it to be a stereo's problem. However, I do hope someone else has come across this issue and knows how to fix this.
Is there a 'A2DP_keep_alive = true' setting somewhere?
Thanks!
There was a setting for this afaik, it is somewhere in the Hermes section. I tried it, but it has a downside as well (although maybe there's a fix for that as well). It has to do with redirecting sound over bluetooth and keeping that connection open.
Having a carkit myself, I wanted to use it like this: the radio plays and whenever a direction is needed, tomtom would announce it via the car speakers. However, in my case, when tomtom announces via the speakers, the radio mutes as the carkit takes over.
When using the hack where the "connection" is kept open, the carkit takes over all the time, which basically means no music from the radio.
If your carkit can work alongside the radio at the same time, then maybe this is a solution for you.
Check out (in hermes forum, so not 100% if it works for Raphael):

or
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=300268 (which refers to BTaudio: http://www.davidmays.com/blog/?postid=6 )
If there's a better fix I'd like to know as well.
Thanks, but unfortunately it didn't change a thing.
If there's so few people having this problem, I'm really suspecting my car kit...
I have a parrot CK3100 btw, so it happens with a different carkit as well.
Okay, I have searched and cannot find anything on this exact topic, so hear I go. Has anyone used a bluetooth handsfree car kit with the Diamond while using the internal GPS? I realize that you should be able to but with all of the issues people are having with the GPS and having to uncheck "receive all incoming beams" and all I thought it a good idea to check. I tried to use a bluetooth hands free with my bluetooth GPS on my Touch and realized that when a call comes in it looses satelite signal. I am hoping that I can use a bluetooth hands free with the Diamond (waiting for Rogers in Canada to get it) because I hear the built in speaker sucks.
Thanks in advance, Wayne>
Wow, 68 views and not one person has used a bluetooth hands free car kit with the GPS
Hi I have used GPS and bluetooth hands free at the same time no problems. Only issue I have had is when using Duttys rom with the experimental bluetooth drivers, and using gps, and on a phone call both me and the person on the other end of the call have heard the directions. I have moved to another ROM and don't have any problems.
I have connected the Diamond to my bluetooth radio and it works in hands-free mode without problems.
Navigating with TomTom and receiving or making calls at the same time is absolutely no problem.
EDIT: I use the official O2 1.93 German rom
Can you please confirm something for me - when i use TOMTOM with my bluetooth car unit there is a lag off a few seconds. E.g. instead of hearing you have reached your destination, it cuts off the first bit and all i can hear is destination. There is also a delay in the ringer. Is this ROM related? If i switch ROMs will it resolve this for me?
I have connected my phone via bluetooth to my car radio, but TomTom uses the phone's internal speaker, as my radio does not support A2DP, but only hands-free. Through the internal speaker the directions are without any lag.
Incoming calls are signalled on my radio after a short lag (1 second or so). I guess that is normal behaviour though.
what a bummer that is - it renders tomtom useless via a bluetooth device. my unit is a JVC AVX-33 which supports A2DP. So basically when tomtom says turn left in 100 yards etc, because of the lag i dont get to hear it. I have more like a 4 second lag
Is that also the case when you're streaming music over bluetooth to the radio while using TomTom?
Because I was also thinking about getting an A2DP capable radio for my car for this scenario. But if there is such a lag, TomTom would be completely useless over BT.
I have no problems with music at all. No lag what so ever. Looking back now, it just appears to be system sounds, which includes tomtom. When I change ringtone and click play, there is also a lag at that point
That's strange.
You could try Advanced Config and change some of the BT settings to see if that helps, though I don't see why system sounds lag and music does not.
Maybe someone else can shed some light on this problem?
I'd be grateful!
I have tried this solution without any luck
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=262119
Have you perhaps tried connecting your Diamond to another radio or other device that supports the A2DP profile?
Perhaps a PC or notebook with bluetooth?
You could then verify that it is indeed a problem with the phone itself and not with the radio.
I have the Supertooth Hands Free Kit, and it works pretty fine. I pair it, then start a connection, click two time on the Supertooth Button, and I even get the sounds of all Apps over the Hands free kit (GPS too).
For me it works fine.
I had no trouble with my Parrot kit and the Diamond running TomTom both with the Vodafone rom and 3rd party one from here. I have the trimmed voice commands using my Touch Dual but no such issue on the diamond. Navigation prompts come from the phones internal speaker and not my car kit.
That's interesting Blackfear gets GPS prompts through hands freee but wseed does not. The only reason I am considering getting a hands free unit is because I have heard the Diamond has a bad speaker. I was hoping to get all sound through the bluetooth speaker phone.

Really, that is not what I wanted to hear. Are you using a bluethooth hands free, and if so which one? How can it affect the internal GPS? My problem was because I was asking the phone to communicate with the bluetooth GPS, and the bluetooth hands free while announcing turns and phone conversation. I was hoping the internal GPS of the Diamond would not be affected at all by a bluetooth hands free.

I'am using a bluetouch handsfree set and as navigation tomtom 7. When a phonecall comes in, i have no satelites till i drop the call. Maybe this is a problem with my not standard skippy rom, but i don't know if this happens with the standard rom.

I just tested this, because i was curious - i never noticed this.
And i can confirm, answering a call with a BT handsfree while navigating. It doesn't affect the GPS. I can even stream music via A2DP to my car stereo at the same time, i hear the music and navigation instructions loud and clear without lag trough my car speakers.
So this problem might be ROM-related, not hardware... I hope this is good news
The ROM i use is the official one from HTC website : "_HTC Touch Diamond_QMR_RUU_Diamond_HTC_NLD_1.93.404.1_Radio_S igned_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship.exe"
The BT headset i use is a Jabra BT350
I stream A2DP to a small BT audio receiver, Sony MBR-100
I hope this helps!
edit :
I read somewhere in this topic about a lag trough the A2DP connection.
I actually can tell how much lag there is : 400 msec. Totally acceptable for Tom Tom i think..
I know this, because sometimes i use TCPMP for watching video's in the car, e.g. at McDonalds and i have to set the audio delay in TCPMP to -400 msec to get it lipsync
Thanks, Aldo it's not a big problem for me with my build in navigation system, it's nice to know that it's rom related.
Hi,
Does anyone know if the Polaris can supports two bluetooth connections at once?
I have a PC in my car and a seperate handsfree kit and would like to be able to connect to both at the same time.
I have searched the forum and on other xda devices people have mentioned that they had no problems connecting to 2 bluetooth devices at once.
For example they connected to their handsfree kit and to their sat nav system.
I gave it a try in my car last night but had no luck.
Im not sure if it makes a difference what radio rom i have? I ahve the Murata 1.58.21.23
Thanks
