All device audio via bluetooth - General Questions and Answers

How can I stream all device audio via bluetooth to my radio in wm 6.5.5 (touch pro)? With wm 6.1 this was possible; no I can't get it work (I need it for navigation via radio)?
Bluetooth works for phone calls.
I have tried the BTaudio app; this mutes audio at my device; but I get no audio via my radio.

i use BTAudio as well, and everything goes to my headset. however, i don't use the BTAudio ON/OFF, where it pops up a screen and you have to push the button to toggle on and off, then minimize the screen. there is another component called BTAudio Toggle. the icon looks like a Bluetooth symbol with headphones on. i also run Manila 2D, so i just add it to my Launcher and i have ALL audio come through my headset by just clicking a button one time. and at the top of my screen it put a little icon of a head with headphones on, so i KNOW it's connected. i've only been able to find the BTAudio download WITH this other component one time, and i can't even remember where i found it. but if you want to send me your email, i'll shoot it over to you. i'm not sure if the copy of BTAudio that you are using has this third component with it, but if not, just let me know and i'll shoot it your way. Just PM me.

Caller ID, Call list, BT headset, HandsfreeProfile FYI..

I have the BT800 and I have gotten some results but I want more people to try it,,, maybe with the Sony-Ericson devices. (I am not sure if the Caller ID and call list works with the Sony-ericson BT headset.. So, if you know it works, let me know.)
The BT800 needs BT stack 1.1 or 1.2 and Handsfree Profile to work.
I do not know what MS BT stack I am running, but, with the below handsfree reg hack, I got it to work.
Get rosco file explorer, (serial available from astalavista.box.sk , or use trial version). add the registry entry of Hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\bluetooth add a new key while "bluetooth" is highlighted of "HandsfreeProfileOn"
Delete the pair on the BT800 and your PPC and turn them both off.
Turn back on the PPC and the BT800, Repair the device and the BT800, go to BT manager, click and hold on the BT800, select Handsfree.
Let me know how this worked, I have had mixed results. One time it did get caller ID and all worked well, but then only the audio was being played to the BT800 and the phone was also playing the audio and the mic did not work on the BT800, only on the phone.. BUT, this may only be my device for I have messed with it so dam much.

Activate a programm by BT

Hello,
I'm using an Atom with WM2005 and the BT headset R35 from i-tech. This allows you to control the wm player via bt. By starting the voicedial from the standard button on the BT HS, i encounter unbearable sound problems and the sound from MS Voice command 1.6 is not transmitted at all... I don't know why, but that's the case.
When I start the voicedial from my phone instead all the rest works perfectly via BT. Means, I can not use the standard button from the BT HS. Therefore my idea: Activate voicedial from a different BT button, there are enough, for instant the one that pause and resumes the wmplayer. The button also wakes the phone up.
Any idea if this is possible? can i change a registry entry to handle this event or use a tool, like the one to reprogram the hardware buttons???
Any experiences, or similar problems?
Cheers

Vox + BT Headset trouble

Hi!! I have some problem with my vox + HBH-DS970 headset. I can't redirect incoming call sound from phone to headset
With my previous phone i change "capability" parameter (4-th bit by 0, like 110101)
But "capability" parameter in Vox is 7 bits lenght!
I'll try to set 1110101 (117) and 110101 (53), but it doesn't work!
while incoming call, i hear phone but not headset
Anyone can help me with advice?
bt headset prob
I have an xda2 i and I have the problem that even when the headet is connected, at times an incoming call won't broadcast over the headset at all, and equally if i dial out the call doesn't transfer to the headset.
Curiously, I've found the solution is to go into bluetooth manager -->active connections--> and click on STATUS of the head set connected. it should show signal strength and such. I double click on the CONNECTED message (oor maybe somewhere on the screen, basically double tap until it reads NOT CONNECTED ..... as odd as it sounds... this is what i needed... as when I do this, it usually works ok for me.
Maybe it will help?
..........IB a n e
this is smart, so there is no any bluetooth manager on it
and my headset can play any sound from phone because it is A2DP and i'm continuosly use it
i have one way to solve this - JetWare BT-Extension. In this programm i can check "use phone ringtones" and that works OK
but program unstable, so i want to get this future by regisrty edit

Handle call through PC

Hey guys-
I'm running My Mobiler to output the display, and control my phone (Tilt/Kaiser/TytnII/8925) via my PC (XP sp2).
When I receive a call, My Mobiler allows me to accept/reject/sms etc through my pc (really through my phone dialer but I'm using my keyboard and mouse), but when I want to accept the call, and talk to my caller, I'm having to pickup the phone, and resort to what I'll call 'untethered' phone use (i.e., phone to ear/BT headset).
What I'd like to do (and hopefully where you guys can help me out) is to use some method or software to relay the call through my PC (and use my pc's built in speakers & mic). Bonus if the method leverages something I'm already running (ActiveSync/My Mobiler).
Additional info:
BT is an option, but it's Toshiba stack, which from my researching doesn't' seem to support the Headset profile on PC.
Thanks
well if your pc has bluetooth it should be able to work....i have a usb to bluetooth adapter for my pc and i can get the audio going to it never tired to use a mic or use my pc as a speaker phone but 1 thing for sure the audio from calls go on my pc....if i had a mic i would test it out...also as another option(if your phone has it.) u could just use speaker phone...

What's the make/model of the USB BT you're using?
Mine is:
Toshiba Bluetooth Stack for Windows
Version v5.10.15
When I pair up the profiles displayed on the tilt are:
A2DP: Advanced Audio Distribution Profile
SPP: Serial Port Profile
The profiles in the Toshiba BT manager are:
DUN: Dial-Up Networking Profile
LAP: LAN Access Profile
If I use my BT headphones (Sonorix C3) with MortPlayer, A2DP works, If I try to use the Toshiba USB BT it doesn't work.
I think the one I need is (either)
HSP: Headset Profile
or
HFP: Handsfree Profile
I'm suspecting the toshiba bt stack is to blame, anyone else able to use a toshiba stack and get HSP/HFP working on their PC?
Im currently using My Mobiler to use my VOX due to having removed the broken screen from its shell
whenever i take a call, all i do is put it on speakerphone and it works fine
using the computers speakers and mic would be great fun, but for me its impossible due to the bluetooth dongle i use not having any compatible (free) software that uses audio streaming, but if it did, audio streaming should work with both speakers AND a mic! so it should in theory work.
i think

Speakerphone isn't an option, I'm in an office and the sharing of my conversation with my coworkers via loud speaker wouldn't be appreciated.
I intend to use a headset+mic combo hooked up to my pc, this way I can listen to music off my pc, and handle calls.
flow would be:
[Phone]<--display&control(via My Mobiler)-->[KVM - PC]
[Phone]<--voice*(Need solution here)*-->[MIC & Headset - PC]
Salling Clicker Is on the road to what I'd like to do, although it doesn't have voice support under windows. It's on the road to PPC <> PC convergence.
Any one have any experience with tweaking Salling Clicker to work with voice?

When I paired my MDA Vario III with my notebook (HP TC4200 Tablet PC running a Broadcomm BT stack) I had a "Voice gateway" service available from my phone. This is in addition to DUN and Network Access Point services. Basically when I PC and phone connect my PC acts as a BT speakerphone.
I've not used the setup that often but it seems to work pretty well. When 1st connected a pop up briefly appears to inform me that the "Call Monitor" is active and that's it til a call comes in. At that point a notification gets displayed saying the number or callerID with buttons for "Accept & "Reject". If I take the call, or transfer and active call to the BT headset then my PC picks up the call.
By default my notebook uses its built in loudspeaker and microphone. However I can also pair my PC with a BT headset then route all sounds through it. It's a bit of a faff though as I have to change the active sound device to whatever headset is connected. I also need to connect the PC and eadset 1st if the headset is also paired with the phone, otherwise the real BT headset may take the call instead of the "virtual" one (notebook). I haven't tried this with my BT stereo headset though, only my conventional mono...
Whilst playing during a particularly boring teleconference I also discovered that I can record the calls and pass the sound through a text to speech converter supplied with the PC... the results of the latter are more for entertainment than serious use, althoug I suppose with some training it might be better...
I also use Salling Clicker. The phone events work pretty well, but to date I've yet to take a call using the PC whilst it is running.
Not sure if this helps in your case, but it seems like what you want to do is definitely possible.
Fatman it's like you've taken a page right out of my book. What software are you using for speech to text? This could make for a useful and entertaining audit trail... Sounds like I need to pickup a new BT adapter based on the Broadcomm stack. If anybody has had any luck using the Toshiba stack, please share.

I'm not sure if the program is available as separate software. It's called "Microsoft English Recognizer" and was pre-installed on my notebook. I have no idea how it compares to any other programs. I've only playted around with it very briefly as a way of killing time during a boring teleconference!
However, I can't see why any program couldn't be used as the sound from the phone is available to any software as the BT stream from the phone becomes the default input sound feed.
One thing I will definitely be trying next time is recording the call whilst taking notes using Tablet Enhancements for Outlook. THis basically augments the normal MS Outlook Journal functions so I can take handwritten notes which can be edited, commented, and then later searched. If you record the microphone feed (i.e. the phone call in my case) the notes are then linked into "timeline" of the call so you can see what notes were taken when, and conversely what happened in the call when you took a particular note... should be useful if it works...
Let me know if you need any additional info about BT stack versions and drivers etc but it does sound like you'd need the Broadcomm stack - ISTR reading that the Brioadcomm stacks on some PocketPCs have laways performed better than the MS equivalents, and it appears that the same if true for PCs too... The BT on my notebook is far more reliable, and flexible than that on my work PC which uses an MS BT dongle. However, that may be due to the fact that the BT on my notebook is built in and not USB...
Good luck!

[Q] HELP! A2DP Toggle on Droid 2, 2011, NEW

So I recently got a jawbone era bluetooth headset, and UNLIKE the Droid 1, the Droid 2 (which is the only phone I have now) cannot handle a hard-wired i.e. 3.5mm connection through the headphone port AND an A2DP headset at the same time, or at least not very well...
The issue is this, I want (like I use to do with my Droid 1) to plug my phone, and thus the music player on it, into my car's speakers via the headphone jack and STILL have my bluetooth headset on. When I exit the car, it'd be nice if the phone would then play the music on the headset when the headphone jack's connection is unplugged, so that means not having to manually turn the "Media" support for the bluetooth headset on or off all the time, "Media" being the A2DP if I understand that correctly.
There use to be an app, or more precisely a widget for that, but went out of commission after the 1.6 OS was upgraded. I've rooted my phone and tried to get that app working, but no luck. I can get into the options, but not the widget itself.
So, oh talented developers and gurus, I'm hoping for a solution of some kind, and as far as I'm concerned, there are a few different possibilities...
1) Some kind hearted soul will update the A2DP toggle widget for 2.2 (soon perhaps?)
2) There might be some Music app or other app out there that will accomplish the same thing, either automatically (would be nice) or manually (not as nice, but acceptable).
3) There might be a ROM out there with Droid 1-like support for the automatic switching A2DP/headphone jack...
Basically, I'd like a one or two 'click' toggle for the bluetooth 'Media' (aka: A2DP), or an automatic solution.
Anyone have any ideas?
