Connecting HTC s740 to BMW Bluetooth Carkit - General Questions and Answers

I have a 2004 BMW 3series with an integrated bluetooth carkit. Unfortunately I cannot get the connection with my HTC s740 working. The phone recognizes the car and connects. But not vice versa. The dealer thinks the software in the HTC is too advanced. Does anyone have any suggestions? Can I downgrade the bluetooth software of the phone? In my former car I had a Parrot which worked perfectly with the HTC. Unfortunately I sold the Parrot with the car.
Thanks for helping me out!

What rom are you using?
I have an issue with my HD and TOuch Cruise on 6.1, although using 6.5 on my Cruise works fine??
It is reported that cooked 6.1 roms dont like connecting to car bluetooth kits.
Im still looking for a solution to this, probably to do with bluetooth stack/drivers.

bluetooth problems HTC s740 to BMW
If you mean the ROM of my HTC, it is. 5.2(.20279.20279). It is a 2008 smartphone.
Do I need to upgrade the phone?

lol is that a cooked rom or stock? if cooked, see this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=519676
I know its not much help, but you will appreciate that things are happening.

To be honest; I have no idea what you mean. What is the difference, and how I am I about to know. I didn't change anything on the phone, after buying it........

Hey bro,
If you have no idea what rom you are using, u will be using stock rom.
Stock = offical HTC rome included with device.
Cooked = another/different rom, not originally intended for use on ur device, or provided by HTC. A cooked rom has been "altered" to work on ur device. They work better and faster and provide more functionality than stock roms.............
It would appear that bluetooth is a problem with all 6.1 roms (cooked or stock!!)
ok, time to complain to HTC (for what good it wil make)
I may merge these threads into one, as they are related.

Spectec SDW-820 wifi card - cannot use on XDA II

hey i need help regarding this new wifi card i bought.. does not seem to work on my XDA II.
Rom 1.72.00WWE
radio version 1.17.00
ext ROM 1.72.901
Hello
was there an update ? Because I see that the XDA II is in
the compatibility list
D you still have a problem ?
I wished to buy that card on my XDA II (upgraded WM 6.1)
Well, please search. There is a lot of posts around here about these spectec wifi cards. They work pretty well, but you have to find the right driver. The wm6 driver does not seem to work well on my device, but the 2003SE or the wm5 one (I don't remember which one, give a try...) works flawlessly (even on wm6.1)
hi,
i am having no end of problems with my Spectec 820 and my himalaya XDA 2.
I got it going when i was running the stock WM 2003, but i have since updated to WM5 and now WM6 and have not been able to get it running with any of the drivers off the website.
I have used all of the drivers (WM 2003, WM5 WM6) as suggested on this site when i have had WM5 and WM6 installed with absolutely no luck.
The only glimmer of hope was that when running the WM5 driver on WM6 it came up with wifi symbol on the top of the Today screen but the device wouldnt do anything else, i couldnt get a connection, it was if it recognised there was some kind of wifi card but nothing more, no networks, no searching not a sausage.
I am very frustrated as i really want WIFI but dont want to give up on my Himalaya as even now, running WM6 i think it is a great device.
I am contemplating buying a SPectec 821 but i am worried it will not work.....
Anybody ha ve any ideas?
hello
guess i can help you, by sending you this:
WM6.1 by Chandra Shekhar, the best i ever tested its rocks !
wifi, gps and all stuf, works, perfectly
hope, its gonna help you, a bit, enjoy!
thanks to Chandra Shekhar
Hello!
I'd like to know if this card works on MDA I.Please answer

I need an s100 rom in a m500 - how?

Just got a new car mp3 player with bluetooth support. Cost a bomb but risked buying it because it said on the Pioneer website it was compatable with the s100.
However, I cant get the player to recognise the phone so I really need to change this Orange M500 into a Qtek s100!
I have no idea how to do this, where to download the rom from etc.
Can someone please point me in the right direction.
Many Thanks in Advance,
debully
Everything you need for the update is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=46628 though I would be surprised this solves your problem. The S100 & M500 are both Magician so same hardware.
What's your radio version (of your magician of course :! & what attempts in pairing your magician with the pioneer have you made?
M
Hi,
My:
ROM is 1.06.00 WWE
Radio 1.05.10
The attempts at pairing are EXACTLY in accordance to the Pioneer user manual. It's worth noting that the Pioneer successfully pairs with a Samsumg D500 so this rules out the possiblility of a faulty unit.
At least if I have an S100 rom installed (which is in the compatability list) and still can't get it to pair I can RMA it or contact Pioneer c/s.
Thanks for help,
debully
You still can try Radio 1.12 or 1.13 & a newer rom. I'm very pleased with the 1.13.
I assume you've set BT to 'discoverable' on your magician?
& yes this would be a good point to ask the shop or Pioneer for help. As they state it should work it's time for them to show how.
Success, M
BTW does your magician pair correctly with other devices?
Been tearing my hair out with this one all days.
Works and pairs great with every other phone I can lay my hands on:
D500, C500, C600, various Noks.
But just wont find the bleeding m500. The m500 can find it, but not the other way round. Just wont pair.
Successfully installed the s100 rom - many thanks for patiently pointing me towards the sticky's that were glaring me in the face.
Tried a couple of b/t stacks, Toshiba (would not work) BlueSoliel etc. Still no good.
This is the link to the compatability table on the Pioneer site:
http://www.pioneer.co.uk/uk/campaign/support/bluetoothCompatibility.html
I've gotta get in touch to find out exactly how they managed to pair these 2 devices.
Anyone know if I'd have more luck with a Prophet based machine as it's likely I could buy-out my contract with Orange and flog the M500 on ebay and take out a new contract with an M600.
Many thanks for your help,
debullu
Specs sheet from Pioneer looks fine. Have you tried radio versions 1.12 or 1.13? With the latest BT patches that came in the 1.13 ext-rom?
Still best advice is, like you say yourself too, go back to the shop & have them prove the compatibility.
Success, M
Tried all the roms now upto 1.13 and all the radios upto 1.13.
Tried all the b/t stacks and addons I can find.
Still, the Pioneer head unit will not recognise or pair with the Magaician.
Looks like I'll have to get a new phone/ppc.
Damn,
debully.
Man that's terrible, couldn't the store where you bought offer some help? You got it for it's BT capabilities & now you got nothing, tried to return it?

T-Mobile Dash WM6 ROM - useful to us?

Hi,
I just wondered if anybody could confirm whether the impending WM6 release for the T-Mobile Dash will be of any use to the ROM Cookers here? I'm still using Helmi's v1.1, and think it's great, but could do with a bit more stability, and was hoping a "release" ROM might provide that.
The reason I ask is that it appears that the Dash's ROM has leaked already, but I haven't seen a Universal ROM that seems to be based around the new released core, as I would have expected, or have I missed something?
Cheers,
Steve.
Dash is A SP phone;
Uni is A PPC phone;
can't build uni rom based on dash core.
allway: as U said, and second thing(even if dash will be ppc) is more than possible that has different HW - thats the reason why U cannot use ie hermes roms for uni.
but u can use some parts of roms from different device usually bundled sw, mms, voice dials....

Fair enough. I thought the two platforms were being brought together, and realised that the difference in hardware may already be handled by the drivers etc that we already have.
Presumably there will be apps etc that may be of use, as phsnake said.
Cheers,
Steve.

HTC P3400 Rom on Prophet

Hello everyone!
This question may sound a little awkward but is it possible to install the HTC Gene (P3400) ROM on a Prophet?
I'm asking this because I read that the P3400's hardware is pretty much the same as S200.
Thanks in advance!
It will doen't work!
Little example:
The HTC Orbit has nearly the same technical aspects as the HTC Prophet but you can't flash a Orbit ROM onto Prophet!

in case you don't know you can install Wizard ROMs on a Prophet i've done it myself, it just doesn't mean it will work well
never heard about htc orbit, but if you're talking about htc Artemis (xda orbit), it doesn't have the same hardware as the prophet: it has gps and fm radio and the prophet doesn't, for example. not to talk about the flash chips and stuff...!
Maybe or maybe not...
Hardware sound similar, but on p3400 no wifi hardware for example...
So might be possible to install, but some stuff will never work.
Wm6 10.0.15342.0
So could we make it with WIZARD's Wm6 10.0.15342.0 ? People having this device is really enthusiastic about this new brand ROm coming straight from Microsoft.
As soon as i get some free time i am gonna work on it.
i think it can work,but D600 look like dopod c858 or M700, but who can fix the rom for D600?

Hands free kit for the HTC S710

HI,
Is anyone using a handsfree kit for the HTC S710
I was looking at a Parrot CK3000-Evolution. see link below for Halfords advert:
http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/...logId=10151&productId=240407&categoryId=79852
Does anyone know of any problems
Thanks
Sorry, I know a "me too" reply is a little useless for you so I'll try and add a little more than that
I'm interesed in this too but I'm concerned that it may be effected by the whole Bluetooth DUN (or lack of) thing on the S710. I'm using a Vodafone v1415 as opposed to an HTC S710 and as yet have not been able to re-enable the BT DUN.
Aren't Vodafone wanderful!!
Can anyone give any indication if BT car kits in general work with BT PAN or do they need DUN??
