Best radio for bluetooth - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De

With all the radio choices, I don't know which is the best one for bluetooth.
I use a wireless bluetooth stereo headset a lot so want a radio with best bluetooth stack so I can minimise/stop crackling.
I have searched through the forums but cannot find a clear answer.
In terms of Rom I'm using, I currently am using a 6.1 WWE rom but was thinking about changing to a PDA one(either 6.1 or 6.5).
Would choice of custom rom affect radio a lot?

Where are you located and what network are you on.it would help a lot.
For even better answers. Check the radio section that is pinned at the top of the forum

Sorry, I'm in the UK on T-Mobile.

the bluetooth stack in the rom itself has more to do with it than the radio does...pda roms are usually on point as far as BT goes, i would start with v7, also make sure that you have either SPL 3.29 or 3.34, and then one of the recommended radios for that rom series. check for posts in the pda thread from other guys in the uk as far as what might be the best radio and go from there.

Please use the existing radio thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=393182

New or different ROMS or Bluetooth Stacks?

After spending all afternoon wondering this site and trying every way to get A2DP to work on my Sprint Apache w/ new ROM, I am just about fed up. I need to ask a couple of questions before I break down and but another bluetooth stereo headset or clip.
Are any Apache owners out their running a different ROM and/or BT stack that improved over all performance and/or their A2DP experiance?
I probably know the answer to this one, but what would be the best headset to get to confirm if my problems are with my device or the clip I have already
(Bluesonic HS-H989)?
Have you tried the zokie A2DP .cab file? By adding this file to Wizards, it adds Stereo Bluetooth to ROMs which don't have the stereo BT.
I've heard the Apache is similar to the Wizard. I used a similar .cab file to add A2DP to my xv6600 which was the predecessor to the Apache xv6700.
You should be able to find the zokie .cab file by searching this site. I doubt the .cab file will hurt your device. Worst case is you'll have to reflash it. Make sure you have the original ROM just in case.
If you cannot find the zoki .cab file. I can email it to you.
Let me know if this works. I am currently using a wizard on the TMO network so I can go international, but the EDGE network dosen't compare to the evdo.
A2DP and Motorola HT820
Hi,
I too am trying to get my Motorola HT820 bluetooth headphones to work with the Verizon XV6700. I haven't been able to find the zokie file.
If you cannot find what you are looking for here, try a search on whole site. The universal and prophet sections are somewhat compatible in programs.
Alot of info was originated here but is scattered and not specific to this unit, so I would go do a search at pdaphonehome.com and ppc6700users.com.
Good luck!
The cab is here...

WM6 Data connections

Hi guys, after digging through the entire WM6 forum, and testing some ROM's for myself, I found a common problom among all of the WM6 ROM's
There are some issues with the dataconnections via UMTS/GPRS. Let me explain.
Let say I have an open GPRS (or UMTS) connection and am browsing some websites. I lose my connection in a tunnel so I wait. When I come out, the dataconnection is useless, and has to reconnect. Thats the part where I it all goes bad The icon will say that there is no connection anymore, but when going to the connectionmanager and modifying the connection will report that the connection is in fact in use!
To my knowledge, there is no immidate fix for this, and ive seen a lot of posts about this issue.
What makes it even more cranky is that it can also occur when the radio switches from UMTS to GRPS when connected.
The commmanger is sometimes able to correct is by restarting the phone, but many times it is forcing me to soft-reset
How did you get to all this you may ask? Well I live in a small village in Holland, and what makes it a pain for WM6 for me is that my hometown is on the border of a GPRS/UMTS zone (IN the town, GPRS - 500 meters out, UMTS) Plus the fact that when going to school, I pass through a tunnel going under water thus canceling all connections
As I said, the error comes op when roaming, or getting disconnected.
Is there anyone that can shed some more light on to this issue? (Or in the best possible case even fix it? )
Edit:
WM5 does not suffer from this.
This is actually a well documented problem amongst some Radio ROMs with WM6. Each person will tell you a different favourite Radio ROM and the only real way to find one that works for you is to test them.
My personal favourite out of quite a few that I've tested is 1.13, locality UK. Works fine for me, boosted signal performance and reconnection for data is fine for my needs, but then I don't use Push eMail or anything that requires permanent connection so I might not be the best judge for that kind of stability.
1.15 has just been released and a lot of people are saying it's the best, haven't tried it myself yet.
There is a thread titled "which radio rom works best where you are?", contains a lot of post stating which is their favourite Radio in their particular location, should help you along the way. Sorry, would give you a link, but feeling lazy
Hope it helps.

I tried the radio 1.15. Like many have said most radios are country compatible. With me the best is 1.09 and i moved to it.
Also radios are interlinked with your network providers, th4 some work better and some dont. Thats my experience.
Tried them all !!
I've posted in just about every thread and must have bored everyone with my postings on this subject, I simply can't find a combination that works reliably under WM6 - none of the Radio versions seem able to cope.
It is interesting that this has not been addressed yet, it is a fundamental issue to using the XDA as a business communication tool.
It would be good if one (or more) of the excellent XDA Developers could try & solve this before delivering any more builds that tweak minor settings & deliver questionable value to a limited audience (I hope this doesn't sound like a whinge, it is not, I like the work done here & enjoy the new feaures).
Well done for setting this up as a dedicated thread.
While I was on aku 3.2 Jwright it was smooth as sailing with radio 1.09. After moving onto wm6 there is a feeling of disatisfaction.
few hangups, communication is not very smooth, missed calls occasionally and sluggish. This is being faced very regularly.
Well!. hope to see a good solution soon.

Ive been through every radio ROM from 1.09.00 and up. The one I found working best for me is 1.15.00 but the issue isnt resolved. It will still happen To see if the radio is actualy better than others I flashed the stock WM5 ROM to my 9000 again to see if it will occur there as well, but no sigar. WM5 is having no problems.
It happens stricktly on WM6 ROM (any version, and any radio) :'(
push mail best option
Hello
So which ROM is the best option for a working push mail?
From the above comments I guess a WM5 - which brings another question : which one is the faster/most stable, at least to compare with WM6 ?
From what I've read, Jwrigh 3.2 seems to be better than Helmi 3.5
A side questions: can anyone do manual activesync to mail2web with SSL enabled?
Thanks

My personal opinion goes to the Qtek factory ROM. It is pretty much vanilla and has decent speed and good reliability. The ROM works good with almost any radio version (1.15.00 is very nice)
As for WM6, many people have it running great, but I am having problems with radio stability.
Tested today again with radio 1.15.00 and the JWright 2.02.00 WWE Crossbow, and no luck. All morning was great, no hickups. And going home this afternoon the whole thing jams up. A little baloon stating that dailing failed or something of that matter. When I restarted the phone via Commmanager, it went working again but switching from UMTS to GPRS locked it up showing the baloon constantly
AFAIK, the developers are aware of this issue. Jwright did a few enhancements on 1.13 with the release of 2.02, it was better, but unfortunately still left a few glitches... Have faith though, I know these guys only do it as a little hobby, but they do come up with some incredible results 99% of the time
Honnestly - the work being done is truely amazing. I should know - I did maintain my own rom for the Sharp Zaurus 6000 so I can tell you how tough it is to fix small bugs - I remember spending weeks to find a workaround for a keyboard issue which was due to hardcoded stuff in Qtopia libraries (what a shame). I had to resort to kernel hacking to change the keycodes, then do the same for the console and Qtopia, etc.
I was contemplating to work on Linux for the Universal, but it is such a great device right now with WM6 that I don't want to spend time on that. I couldn't do much better with free software at the moment (except add more stability and run GAIM which can work behind http-proxy - I need that for my flat rate wap !). Push mail is a killing function.
Anyway, now that the network connectivity issue seems to be pinpointed to the OS (instead of the radio rom) maybe something will be possible ? On GNU/Linux, I would add a script to cron, to try to ping some IP, resolve a FQDN - whatever, and if the connection fail issue a stop/start to the ppp daemon. If this fails too, do the same to the GSM. It shouldn't be very hard to code on WM.
I really enjoy the Universal - good form factor, almost complete (I would just add GPS and more RAM). It is really useful to me in my "off-line" life.
Guylhem
I couldnt agree more on how much great work is done on the Universal (Or any other HTC device for that matter ) And I have great faith in the experts on this forum that a solution will be found
i have tried Jwrights WM6 ROm with 1.13 and 1.15 Radio, the GPRS never connrcts in Egypt. i then tried Darkforces ROM with 1.13 and 1.15 Radio again the GPRS never connects in Egypt.
i then tried Jwrights Rom with Radio 1.09 and the GPRS works 100%. i think there are some issues with WM6 and 1.13 and 1.15 Radio Roms.
does anyone have any other thoughts?
Ill give 1.09 another try over here in the Netherlands te see if there are any minor differences I can spot (Currently using 1.15.00)
Hmmm,
I've got two places were I go on the internet using gprs/umts. And it gives two different results. But when you look at the coverage it can't be a coincidence. Beause at home i lose my signal when it switches between gprs and umts which it does all the time. And at that adres the coverage for just umts is not that good but that for gprs is. really annoying.
But at that other place i have a superb connection with a great signal. and that coincides with the coverage.
So it means that what is important is how a certain rom handles the changes between umts and gprs. Which is already known now is the question who makes sure that the change between umts and gprs goes smoothly??

I'm also in the Netherlands (Arnhem-Utrecht) and I've tried lots of radio roms.
In my view it's true that wm5 works with different roms then WM6.
I've tried 1.12 (fixed) 1.15 and 1.09 with WM6
1.09 is in my view the best, 1.12 and 1.15 both had problems with the BT and the device hanging when soft-resetting.
I'm going to try 1.14.10 1.13 and 1.10 also to see which off those works best.

Dial-Up Over cellular included in ROM

Hi All,
I have a need to use my Kaiser as a modem for dial-up over the cellular line (not HSDPA but old style analogue connection). According to the person I spoke to as HTC this has been disabled, as the drivers don't support it, however I have found in some posts here that an older radio 1.27.12.32 people were able to use this feature.
The question I have is does any of the home brew ROMS/Radio's support this feature?
I am currently running HTC original ROM 6.1 and radio 1.65.16.25
I'm new here and would appreciate any help.
Thanks
Anthony

Emonster questions

Today I bought my eMonster after reading these forums for a few weeks.
So far here is where I am at:
KAIS140 MFG
SPL-1.0.Olipof
CPLD-8
Radio 1.71.09.01 (Original was 1 63 08 26)
Currently running RUU_Kaiser_WM6.1_ASIA_WWE_3.10.707.1.YK_Test
Obviously these questions will have some Japanese localization but any help would be great.
Currently I can make calls and be heard and hear the other party.
I have wifi and 3G access access.
However the problems I have are as follows.
The camera no longer works. It simply gives me a black screen.
Audio works when sliding open the phone but if I try to run media player the audio then stops working completely.
It seems there were several applications that came with the original rom that are now lost including the GPS program.
Also it seems that although the OS is in English now input itself seems limited to chinese.
Any tips from users who have an Emonster or can point me in the right direction would be great.
Thank you so much for this great wealth of information.
Candiman in Japan
I dont know but from what I've gleened from the forums, bad audio and broken camera is always a radio incompatability issue.
I have tried a few radios, apparently this is the latest radio from Japan.
However I have tried a few others as well with limited or worse results.
I would like to try the original radio but I can not seem to find it for download.
Does any one know where I can find 1.63.08.26?
I did a back up with SPB back up but does that include the radio?
Its a great phone and I look forward to mastering it.
Thank you for the help!
Could it be because of You used SPL 1.0? i read in forum, for WM6.1 ROM, it's better to use HardSPL 3.xx (3.28, 3.29 and 3.56).
But still as kb9nvh said, it's main impact of incompatible radio

[Q] Radio FM Tuner

Hello, I'm new here, and ashamed to say that while I like PDAs and know how to operate my Touch 2, I'm a complete newbie about their most advanced features.
I was looking for a more sophisticated FM radio tuner, as I'm not really satisfied with the one bundled with my ROM. I found Power Radio here on the site, but couldn't really understand if my model is supported or not: I found many pages regarding a possible installation on HTC Mega (but I seem to have issues with GFMAPI), one suggestion to rename the FMSDKWrapper.dll file (which I couldn't find on my PDA), and many other technical pages which I couldn't understand. However, after many wanderings I think that the correct answer is that Power Radio is not for me.
So, up to my question. Do you know any other sound FM radio tuner to substitute the crappy one on my Touch 2? Note, I'm not looking for an internet radio tuner, I don't want to connect to the Net.
Thank you.
