I have bluetooth enabled handsfree in my car. Whenever I make a phone call the sound is routed through the car speakers and there's a microphone in my car...
My question is: is there a way to route music from my ppc to my car? I tried a lot of softwares (VJ Volubilis, BlueTooth Audio...) I think its routing to my car (on the ppc it says that its routed and I stop hearing the music), but nothing comes out of my car speakers...
(calling works fine)
any solutions, or is it a hardware thing thats missing in my car?
Thanks!!!!
Not sure if this will work but it is worth a shot (I'll try it myself later on)

I use this and it works fine for me.

Hey nir,
I went to the site and register but the program seems to be out of the beta 4 stage (it says it expired in October). Is yours still working? If it is, can you post the cab? Thanks.
oh.. maybe it's working because it was already installed on my device for a while.
mine works fine.. it's the same cab on the website.
thanks everyone!!
Well I tried them all and it seems its always the same problem... it connects to my car and the sound disappears from my ppc, but nothing comes out from my car.. on BTmusic it gives:
Status: enabled
Headset: connected
A2DP: off
And I tried everything to turn A2DP on.. but it always stays off (menu -> A2DP) , is that the problem?
I feel that my car recognizes only when a phone call comes in, but fro some reason is not transmitting the music from my ppc.
I have a 2006 BMW 525xi with idrive, my ppc is a tmobile wing, and i tried both s2p and the default music player.
In your bluetooth Partnership settings - Click Start, Settings, Connections, Bluetooth and and click on your car's bluetooth, Does it show both Wireless Stereo and Handsfree (are both boxes checked) if not make sure that Wireless stereo is checked) should work if it is. If you do not see wireless stereo and only handsfree - then you will not be able to stream music because your car's bluetooth is not able to stream the music, only calls. My new car's UConnect Bluetooth does not support wireless music streaming, only calls. But in my other car I have the Motorola T505 which can stream both Calls, (handsfree) and Music (Wireless stereo). In partnership settings I see only Handsfree and serial port for Uconnect and my Motorola shows both Handsfree and Wireless stereo. You may be out of luck trying to transmit music if you do not see Wireless stereo in the partnership settings (your car's bluetooth may not support it. If you see the (Wireless Stereo in partnership settings but it is not checked, then check it off and start enjoying wireless bluetooth music streaming.
thanks ...
that's what i thought also.. no i dont have wireless stereo option, i only have the handsfree...
I will ask this knowing that most likely the answer is "no":
anyway to fool the bluetooth to stream music through handsfree?

There might be a way, but I don't know how to myself. I don't know if the sound quality would be any good - Mono Vs. Stereo Sound Plus pitch no Base etc.. If so, you will probably want to explore other Options - MOTO T505 I use is great - If you have AUX jack - you can use that - There are other bluetooth devices as well capable. Good luck. If I see or hear anything else I will reply back to this tread or PM you

It is a newer verson - Google it and download and install on your device. You probably only have version 2.0. It is easily found in this XDA site - Various Links - and on microsoft's web site
if anyone is still interested in this problem check out my comments here:

I'm after an upgrade for BT. My headphones need 2.0w/EDR + A2DP.
Can anyone help.
Thanks
try this...
run both files
Didn't work
This install is to enable the A2DP feature for BT, not to upgrade the BT stack.
Thanks anyway.
Can anyone else help??
I am not sure I can help, but I am curious what headphones you got that will only use 2.0?
The headphones are Logitech FreePulse Wireless
Link to headphones are:
http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/products/details/GB/EN,CRID=2412,CONTENTID=12492
They're pretty good. This pair is a replacement, from Logitech, for 2 pairs of the old iPod headphones. They were replaced due to the cracking headband problem. Unfortunately the new pair does not operate the remote control functions (on the iPod or the phone). They just have volume and mute controls on the headphones.
These new ones connect to the phone OK, but I'm not able to set the device as 'set as Wireless Stereo' and there are no service listed. I'm guessing it the phones version of BT that's stopping the connectivity problem.
What's your interest BT or the headphones?
Cheers.
I am interested in finding the ideal a2dp headphones (decent sound, comfortable, no distortion/skipping, controls work right). I've tried several with my qtek 8300 (moto ht820, sony hbhds970, nextlink spider), and each seems to have its own problems. I've settled on the Sony set, but it has issues with switching from handsfree to wireless stereo (won't automatically switch back to wireless stereo after phone call). I haven't tried any logitech set yet, though.
Hello,
I have downloaded the zip file but seems to be corrupted. Can you upload it again. Many Thanks.

Hi Everyone,
I had a strange thing happen to me in the car the other day and I was wondering if anyone had any views on it. As my phone linked up to the cars BT hands free kit the radio cut out as if I was making a call.
To get the radio on I had to turn BT off on the phone.
Interestingly enough when this happened I had Audio manager running. And right enough I played a track and it came out on the cars speakers. This would be quite useful only I havent managed to repeat it yet.
Certainly I get a bit of music in the 'gaps' when I make a call if audio manager is running but that is it.
Cheers,
Andy
!!! come on guys !!!! someone give me some feedback !!!
BUMP
Anyone ? Please ...
i believe theres is a program called bttoggle or btcicle, which routes audio to bluetooth on running it, i use it to route audio thru my bt headset once in a while, a simple search for bttoggle or something like that should sort it, i wonder if i can upload it here... mods if this file is not allowed please delete...
oh the way i use it is i just kept those files on my storage card and put a shortcut for the btaudiotoggle in the programs folder...thats it..click to turn on audio to bluetooth, click again to turn off..
You might want to check if your Wizard is paired with the car BT using A2DP in addition to handsfree mode. If so, that could explain it -- to fix it, just turn off the A2DP pairing on the Wizard, then re-establish the connection when you want to use the Wizard as an audio player.
No A2DP
Nah just a parrot hands free kit in the car. just wanted to be able to play through it as well as making phone calls.
first off, major props to the xda community, you guys are the best!
now for an interesting problem/project:
It's been a month since I've purchased my Motorola S9 bluetooth headphones http://www.motorola.com/motoinfo/product/details.jsp?globalObjectId=177 and have been amazed by what I can do when combine the S9 with my HTC touch and cyberon's voice dialer which is a voice activation program
I use it to:
listen to stereo music
launch programs
stereo music remote control
speed dial
raise and lower volume
teach iphone users the meaning of envy
just being able to do that with with the a2dp remote and microphone of the s9 makes it feel like it's 2030 where people are wired to computers and technology is transparent and everywhere. The s9 feels like sci fi technology... almost. the s9+htc touch is a great no hassle way of getting the information you want pumped into your ears
so as a tech enthusiast I've asked myself,
why the hell can't my computer do this?? i mean, it's 2008 and I'm still using a keyboard and mouse for everything?
I'm trying to make the S9's work on my mac book pro running windows xp+bootcamp drivers but windows doesn't even support a2dp much less handsfree wireless mic profile
i've an online tutorial by katy hxxp: www.djkaty.com/drupal/vista/bluetootha2dp but installing broadcomm's bluetooth stack gives me an error telling me that there is no bluetooth radio device detected which is total bull as i've been able to send files to my HTC touch via bluetooth. I've also tried installing another bluetooth replacement stack called bluesoleil; with no luck
I've also am about to start trying adding widcomm using this guide (http://www.dev-toast.com/2007/01/05/uncrippling-bluetooth-in-vista-rtm)
but in the guide said a2dp doesn't work with widcomm
anyways how do i make bluetooth a2dp work and my s9's mic to work via bluetooth on pc? is my ultimate question
also, if you could recomend a voice activation program that works as well as cyberon's voice dialer I'm looking for the type of functionality where I can press the voice button issue a command and then good stuff happens I bet lots of other people thought of doing the same thing like this
could you please help?
A step by step guide would be aprechiated
update: I've been able to install widcomm drivers version 5.1 and everything works... except the a2dp UGH!

BlueSoleil, with some external BT dongles, does support A2DP. It's just that the BT dongle itself must support it in hardware.
That is, shop for an external BT dongle if you do need A2DP.

thanx but i'm trying to get my internal laptop's bluetooth to use it I've heard good reports that i'm just using the wrong version of widcomm drivers.... time to reinstall everything...again
besides who wants to carry around a laptop with a dongle flopping around? i'll try to avoid the dongle solution if i can
A2DP and bluetooth stack
Having same issues here. My goal is using BOTH A2dp and Blackberry wireless sync via bluetooth (just a serial port).
I find it impossible as Blackberry will only work with native xp drivers and A2DP is not supported in xp.
Currently i gave up wireless sync and am using A2DP with Bluesoleil, which works fine for me.
Anyone ever tried using A2DP WITHOUT switching to a different bluetooth stack?
Hi! I have a brand new Jabra 620s bluetooth-headset. When I turn the headset on and search for bluetooth devices on my computer I can see it, but I cant see it when I search for it on my touch pro.
What could be the problem here?
I had a similar problem last night (and have it quite often when i need to pair). It doesn't detect it until the 3rd or 4th time in which last night it didn't even detect it either. I power cycled the headset and my phone found it the first time.
Yeah, I tried rebooting my headset and my phone several times, but I still can't get it to work...
Figured it out... Had to hold in a button on the headsett to make it avaliable for new devices...
But new problem:
I don't get sound in the headsett when I play music. But when I make a call the sound is in the headsett. What could be the problem here?
Maybe its the settings in your a2dp profile?
I read this "Set-up of the 620's was simple enough, the headset unit is paired with the device that is streaming the music and / or a mobile phone. A smart move from Jabra allows the 620s to be connected to both a mobile phone and an audio device simultaneously. However our set-up was rather more straight forward than most as we used Jabra's own Bluetooth dongle that supports the all important A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) profile. Real life for most users is a different kettle of fish with support for A2DP being quite sparse, most music gateways and servers and even music ready mobiles rarely support the required profile." source: http://www.lordpercy.com/jabra_bt620s_review.htm
Maybe some tweaking in hklm\\software\microsoft\bluetooth\a2dp\Settings
I believe this headset also supports AVRCP profile. In any case, make note of your original configuration prior to making any changes.

You can use Advanced Config to enlarge the bluetooth bitpool under the bluetooth tweaks. Set it to "very high" for best sound quality (uses more system resources tough).
HTH
Maximum bit-pool setting is 1561. I dont think it solves the problem, cause the quality is still really bad.
Any other tips? Or do I have to return the headset cause a brand new ~1000$ phone cant play on a wireless bluetooth headset?!
Bump.. Are there really no solutions?
I am too cheap to buy a bluetooth headset. So,
"Is it even possible to stream audio from a laptop or any other music source to winmo phone over bluetooth or wifi, so that I can use my current kickass wired mobile headphones"
Ive been trying to get something similiar to work myself, any progress from other members would do well posted here lol
~Dark
Did you get any progress with this? I would like to play my laptop (Ubuntu) music on my phone whilst I go into the kitchen (for example) and I can't be bothered taking me laptop down. If not, I may have to find some wifi solution (though I'm not being too optimistic).
Yes it can work - but - you need a A2DP source that can transmit to the phone...
There is a product that nokia do that I have which is a A2DP gateway box which can either act as a receiver or transmitter to an A2DP phone - but I am not sure what protocols it needs to work... I assume, but dont know, that it works with general A2DP because it will receive from my S710 & Touch Diamond phones - although I have tried the transmit part of it yet the documentation clearly states it will transmit...
the device has phono stereo input & output ports which can be rigged through to whatever sound source you have in mind...
As I say though I havent personally tested the A2DP transmission facility but I very much doubt Nokia would say it worked if it didnt...
Hope that helps...
Well, if I already have an A2DP source, how would I go about getting the phone to recieve it?
news about it please?
I was about to start a new thread for this lol
I want to stream music from my macbook to my phone, and hook up my phone to my home stereo. That way i dont have to waste money on a a2dp receiver when my phone has the capability.
Is there an app for that?
