Hi guys, just a crazy idea.
I loaded my old XDA II with the WM2005 ROM that is floating around in the XDA forum.
First of all I can confirm all the bugs and problems people face with this obvious BETA build of WM2005 on the XDA II, but…
I found the improved MS Bluetooth stack quite interesting.
So here’s an idea:
Would it be possible to extract all WM2005 BT parts (files and registry entries) form the XDA II and place them onto the Magician.
Obviously the XDA II is using a different BT chip, as the Magician, but I found in the registry of the XDA II
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\HCI
the bthcsr.dll
and in the Magician registry
the bthusb.dll instead.
And we know from the exercise with the Bluesoil stack that the Magician uses some kind of USB BT chip.
So I believe these are the driver dll’s for the different BT chips, so by keeping the bthusb.dll on the Magician the WM2005 stack may accepts it.
So here’s the problem:
I managed to export all WM2005 BT registry entries I found, but I got stuck by copying the bt*.* files (dll, etc.) of the XDA II, as they are obviously in the ROM and Resco File Explores can’t copy them.
Even if we manage to get the files, I believe we face the same problem how to override and load them into the Magician.
Maybe by copying them into a different path then \Windows, a directory in the RAM and set the pointers in the registry to this location.
I know it’s probably a hopeless project, but maybe some of you are mad enough and have some ideas and ways of doing it ;-)
I’m happy to help with everything, getting the stuff of my WM2005 XDA II, so let me know if you have some ideas.

Can you tell us please, if there is any new features in BT stack? Any voice dial support?
BT profiles I found in WM2005
Hi, had a quick look through the WM2005 registry and found the following BT profiles:
- Serial Port
- Dial Up Networking
- Headset
- Hands Free
- Input Device (probably Keyboard etc.)
- Active Sync
YES!!! I wish we could!
:idea: :idea: :idea:
Lets see a cab file include the reg and the dll files with the new features 8)
torklemm,
can u dump the rom and upload it to xda ftp?!
Ecactly my problem, never did that 'dump rom' excercise, and I'm not to deep into that Hex code hacking to do it myself, so if anyone else can get us a dump of that WM2005 Rom so that we can try to integrate the required dll files and registry entries into the Magician, that would help.
Ahmmm
guys...
why dont u try the bluetooth stack provided by widcomm instead... it has more features than the 2005 microsoft stack as well, u'll save hell a lot of time and energy extracting only the blutooth stack from the package and am using the widcomm stack currently... it works like a charm... though mine is a himalaya but i've upgraded to win2003se
ROM Version : 2.06,00WWE
Radio Version :1.14.00
ExtROM Version : 2.06.00a
See if u like it... u'll find the widcomm stack on this forum itself, in the Himalaya Upgrading section... but this stack doesnt work with the radio and rom version that himalaya provides... i actually upgraded to the new OS version mainly for the widcomm stack and ofcourse why would i mind a landscape view
adios
always

I have tried installing the latest widcomm drivers... well not just the latest one.. all of them.. but it always gives an error about the lack of memory even tho there are lots of memory to spear.... so no one till now could figure out how to make it work on the imate jam...
It's been ages and no widcomm / broadcom driver has been released or designed for the wm2005 platform. After installing the wm2005 rom, I figured out what a pissed poor job MS has done with their new BT stack. The BT stack that's embedded within wm2005 is soooooooooooo ****ed up, that it's almost as useless. I sure hope someone would come up with a modified version of the widcomm / broadcom BT stack driver that can actually run on wm2005. I've got my fingers crossed.
Hello,
Is it possible to extract the new AKU 3 AD2P drivers from any new device and use them on tornado? the new imate universal ROM for example?
I was thinking about the same thing... Does anybody thinks it's possible?
a2dp drivers
I wonder where the current ones are from (from the 'tornado hack')?
Buehler??? Buehler???
hack the htc oops! did i say that
come on someone from htc post this beta rom you guys that work for htc know this is positive!!
How about the ones from Crossbow (WM6)?
Does anyone know if the A2DP support improved (particularly support for itech headsets, which sound terrible with the A2DP_Tornado hack).
Hi all,
I've got a HTC Touch HD (Blackstone) running WinMo 6.1 (ROM from Dutty v3)
The problem i have is incompatibility with my bluetooth car kit (Nissan Qashqai).
From all kind of fora on the internet i've found the probel is really related to the MS BT stack in WinMo 6.1 (and 6.5 also, i've tested this with a custom ROM lately). As far as it seems right now 6.0 and 5.x doesn't have these problems. So now the question is is is possible to downgrade or repalce the normal/standard BT stack in WinMo 6.1 with the one of WinMo 6.0 or even 5.x Also a non microsoft stack might solve this issue.
Anyboday any idea?
Thanks! Jeroen
3 questions really...
I'm trying to get the apple wireless keyboard to work on my Toshiba G810 runnning WM6.5, without installing teksoft blueinput. Many cases have been successful in the past but seemingly only on WM6.0. WM6.1 and 6.5 somehow doesn't work.
I'm wondering if, for me, it's because of my particular bluetooth stack. It does have built-in HID, but without teksoft blueinput it doesn't work (which makes me wonder what is missing in the WM6.1-6.5 stack that blueinput adds, but is also present in WM6.0)
Question 1: how do I find out what type of stack I have
Question 2: How does one go about porting a stack from one device to another. Is it as simple as dumping the rom, replacing the files, then re-building the rom? If so then I already know how to dump and re-build so all I need are the files. I suspect there's more work than that though.
Question 3: Can one install the WM6.0 stack onto the 6.1-6.5 ROMs? It seems that the 6.0 stack has all the functionalities of 6.1-6.5 and also works better for my purposes.
haven't seen any htc devices which used other bluetooth stacks then ms's default one since wm5 came out
if the interface don't look different it's ms stack
