my phone is a HTC touch cruise, WindowsMobile6.1.
it was no problem playing mp3 music before. i got a bluetooth stereo headset recently, and i connected it with the phone and tried play music via the headset and it worked. but after i turn off the headset windows media cannot play music any more. it always popup with this 'Unspecified error' message. i tried soft reset the phone but still cannot play. and when i connected the headset again it worked with the bluetooth again.
the interesting thing is if i put the mp3 into application data\sounds, then i can play it in notification setting preview without blutooth.
how can i get the player working without the bluetooth headset? i guess this may because the player still try to play via bluetooth while it is disconnected, but how can i set it back to normal?
THis is a wierd problem i havent heard before.
I use Sony bluetooth headphones with my t cruise with now problems at all. The only ***** was having to go thru settings/connections etc to connet them, which i solved using a2dp toggle switch (see my post).
As for your problem, mm wierd. You say ur using wm6.1, so obviously a cooked rom yes?? what rom are you using? I havent flashed my cruise yet as i am waiting for the official wm6.1 from htc to come out first to try and compare.
This is probably a bug in your cooked rom. From my understanding of a2dp drivers it is only turned on when bluetooth headset is connected. When the headphones are off, the driver is not on meaning u should be able to use media player normally (or am i talking ****??)
You might be in for a hard reset......
Let me know how u got on please.
looks like a2dp is not turning off after disconnecting the bluetooth headset. If it was me I would hard reset and try again. if the problem comes back, try a different rom.
the rom was put in by seller when i got the phone,, i'm still new to the WinMobile, don't know how to load the rom again. i installed the TCPMP now, it seems working ok. i'll try some other headset and see how it goes..

Hi, the headphones that came with my Cingular 2125 (HTC Faraday) doesn't work in my phone, but works in everyone elses phone that i try, and that A2DP program doesn't work either with my bluetooth handsfree set either... any help on either one of them is much appreciated. (bought my phone off ebay and they may not be the same headphones that come with it, but it fits and works in any other phone i try...)
Thanks a lot.

Did you install the a2dp patch?
no, i didn't know their was one. im going to look for it now and see if it solves my problems. but it may be my bluetooth. i have a Motorola H3 bluetooth headset
edit i installed the fix and when i go to settings >connection> bluetooth> Menu>Devices>Motorola H3 i get the option of headset but i cant hear music through it. do i need a different media player?
or is there any way to get my phone to recognize the orignal headphones it came with.
The motorola h3 isn't an a2dp headset. I'd suggest the motorola s9, which is absolutely the best I've ever tried (and I've tried alot), but expensive. with an a2dp headset, you'll get an options for "headset" and "wireless stereo".
You can get music to go a non-a2dp headset, but it somewhat of a pain, and sounds like crap anyway.
But it is wierd that your wired headset doesn't work w/ your phone. when you plug it in, does it automatically switch to 'headset' profile?
@ dm251z, nope it doesnt automatically say headset or switch into the headset profile nor does it allow me to select it.
I suspect that there is hardware problem, but of course I have no way of knowing. normally, you can stick just about anything into the headphone jack, and the phone will automatically switch to headset profile (I just tried sticking in an adapter w/o headphones, and that switched it). I don't think that that profile can be switched manually, only hardware controlled. So maybe the headphone jack is shot.
sorry I can't be of more help. I guess I'd suggest trying stereo bluetooth. You can't go wrong with a decent bluetooth headset...even if the phone is shot, you can still use the headset with your next phone. Also for the a2dp patch to work, make sure that your phone has the latest ROM installed, or at least some version of aku 2.x
good luck.
ok. thanx alot for all your help. i even tried a friend of mines adaptor and it didnt work either so i guess ur right. o well. thanx again.
hey guy,
I'm having problems getting this thing to work properly, i've searched and searched and can't seem to find anyone else with this problem:
Device pairs fine and seems to function perfectly as a handsfree, however, using media player the audio comes out of the phone even as the 'click' sound effects are coming out the headset! Can't seem to get any audio from media player or core player to come out the headset, the 'htc streaming media player' uses the headset but you can't open files etc using that.
I've tried with WM5 and WM6, same results.
Anyone faced this problem before?
Hi
I've just purchased this headset last week and am thoroughly impressed by it so far. There's not much info on it out there but theres a few characteristics I've found out about this headset; i wonder if you can help me confirm them.
- It seems like when you take the headset off your head it automatically turns off? at first I thought mine was faulty but this behaviour was quite consistent and I figured it was just a power saving feature.
- seems like it likes to turn by itself if idle quite fast.
- need to manually set the device as hands free for it to actually work as a hands free
- unable to use the mic when connecting to pc. I wanted to use it for my sip client on the pc but alas the microphone function doesn't register? What should I be doing to make this work?
In regards to your problem; I'll outline the steps I take to use mine.
1. turn on headset
2. turn on trinity bluetooth from comm manager
3. go to bluetooth settings from settings
4. touch and hold down the nokia bh501 item until the drop down menu appears ,then select "set as wireless audio" or similar
--> you should hear a sound, if you can hear this then it will work, if theres nothing
--> alternatively, select hands free if you want to use it as hands free!
5. open your favorite mp3's and it should work fine.
Does this work for you? Btw im using Mun's TE wm6 rom. What rom are u using?
Eureka!
Your post made me realise I had only tried the headset with AAC files and not MP3 and guess what? The headset only works with MP3 files! Although this is probably a limitation of the trinity.
I can also confirm it doesn't work with nerodigital video files.
I'm using the GPS enabled WM5 Ship ROM.
I'll do some more tests on different media files, it would be a real shame if we're limited to only MP3s...
EDIT: Wow the sound quality is amazing and the bass is fantastic!
I haven't tried playing AAC files because I haven't got any...I specifically converted all my formats so I could use GS player. I'm pretty sure the headset can play WMA as well..I haven't really tested...
The next thing I notice is this constant high pitch ringing or hissing sound...It's very uncomfortable.
I've seen reports of this all over the forum in regards to the Triity, let's hope there is a fix available soon.
wma file work.
i have wm6 and a motorola ht820 and it works great. the only thing is that the perfomance of the trinity decrease while i'm using the bluetooth-headset.

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

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...

I have the same headset HT820 and audio sucks, long pauses etc etc.
Can you post your firmware Revision for me please, it should be printed on the inside of the headband.

Haha.. can you help my friend Beasty please
He's so happy with his new headset.

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:
Bluetooth model: i-tech Clip

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 just got a pair of BT620 bluetooth headphones and love using them. The only problem I have is that even with bluetooth enabled, I have to repair the phone everytime I want to use them. If not, it only recognizes one service instead of stereo wireless and headset, and I still have to repair it to get it to play music.
Is there a way to fix this or does my titan just have a crappy stack/manager?
hey,
have u played around with the bitrate settings on the bluetooth using advanced config? that helps quality of music.
I use a2dp switch to turn on a2dp purposely, i just added it into the programms bit of my htc home along with wmp shortcut. Turn on ur headphones then activiate the switch, works gr8 for m8 touch cruise and prophet although u dont say what device ur using. see this and thanks to its creator!!!
let me know if it works for u!
My wired headset has never worked like in Windows Mobile. Polaris just refuses to play music through it. I think developers are working on this, but some users have found workarounds that work.
I created this topic to keep track of this issue in order to give it the importance I think it has. I hope you think the same.
I also agree that this issue deserves more attention from the developers, especially because, at least for me, is the main inconvenience with Froyo at the moment (this and the related issue with usb mounting and adb).
I can confirm that one workaround is to plug either the headset or usb in recovery mode and then quitting into android, after that it works as normal until the next reboot, in the sense that if you unplug and replug the headset / usb it will recognize it. I don't know if it will be hard to fix, but it seems that android cannot communicate with the usb port after fully booting.
Same problem here. The recovery mode workaround does recognize USB but it would not recognize my wired headset.
The working around for the wired headset RC W100
The headset is working with Incubus RLS12 only when you unplug the headset it isn't directly play on the phone speaker.
You have to stop playing (pause) and turn off (end key) the screen. Unlock the screen and start playing with the music on the phone speaker.
It isn't necessary to reboot with the headset connected to enable it.
Hi!
I can't get my wired headset to play music through it. Unless I've not understand the workaround it does not work for me. Here is what I've done:
- stopped the music player (while playing through phone speaker);
- switched off the display;
- connected the wired headset;
- start playin' again but it plays always through phone speaker;
Thank u.
I can confirm this issue.
I really love the work done with Android, but I can't use it as an MP3 player, because my wired headset doesn't work.
Is this known with the developers, and being looked in to?
Nothing new on this issue so far?
Up!
I am still ionterested in this issue!
