Hi!
first, i'm sorry for my faulty english, but who cares...
lets try to sort things out, because some topics are really messed up
my challenge on the search for a full featured sw/hm setup for stereo music, headset, handsfree, voice command now lasts for about 2 weeks, and i'm still not satisfied . So i will post my impressions and problems here, perhaps we will find a satisfying solution
my hardware:
himalaya (xda II O2)
ROM 1.72.01.GER wm2003
RADIO 1.17.00
ht820 motorola headset
tweaks:
CSR Bt see (http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33532&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=a2dp)
what i got done until now:
- a2dp profile works great, brilliant playback in my ht820
- 2 sec connection time on start, i can live with that
- no skips during playback, i can live with that too
- incoming call during playback: no problem ansering by pressing multifunction button on ht820, headset profile is activating
bad things:
- only functions with wmp, i can live with that
- doesn't resume playback after call, well i don't like that
- no guess how to enable ms voice command over ht820, thats sad
- playback buttons don't function, sad too...
so if you're a owner of a Himalaya (xda2, xdaII, mda2, don't know all it's names ) device post your comments, achievments, answers...
for you whe are annoyed of all the steps to enable bt stream music to headset, i wrote a mortscript to be placed on today screen to toggle ht820 on/off, i hope it may be useful, be aware you need SwichIt by Buzz_Lightyear (http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=17476&highlight=switchit) installed for proper functionality. you may have to edit the mortscript to fullfill your needs (paths,....) with an editor like notepad .
ok thats all for now from me, look forward to some life on this topic

yes, wmp is not that loud, thats true
i think it's pocketplayers preamp, perhaps there's some plugin for wmp , too, but i've never seen anything like that
can you use MS voice command with wm2005 and is it possible to use the headset for it?
ooo i havent been playing around with voice command yet. post the prog here, i'll try it out. or the link to it.

well i found that on buzzdev, perhaps you've already seen it:
http://buzzdev.net/component/option,com_simpleboard/Itemid,59/func,view/id,15342/catid,26/
i guess its a beginning to solve the volume issue.
here you can download a demo of voice command, its one of MS produkts, that really functions , well i like it.

I just installed a wm2005 image http://buzzdev.net/component/option,com_simpleboard/Itemid,59/func,view/id,14533/catid,26/ + crb stack
next previous buttons on ht820 function now but pause play button does not...
it also does not resume music after call, did you manage to solve those things?
i didnt install that rom on mine, but a previous one b4 that. giodata rom. everything works for me on windows media. jus that its not loud enough so not useful for me when on da bus. i use pocket player now when on da bus. i think itech blueband is louder but lack the music control. so u are saying that the 2.01 rom dont work fully?? im thinkin if i shoul flash to that. btw is windows media now louder after u use this rom?? compare it with pocket player for me. im thinking to upgrade to 2.01 or not.
VVGEO, you are the master of all things wicked and PHAT! I've been trying to get my bluetooth headphones working for 4 months! It works with excellent audio quality now! Thankyou for posting this.
i'm looking for a good mp3-player such as HTC Audio Manager, which I enjoyed on my Kaiser
unfortunately HTC forgot to install it on Diamonds and Touch Pros, so I tried the Windows Media Player, which ****ing SUCKS
no sorting in playlist and library, very small buttons and really aweful at all
the CorePlayer/TCPMP is a cool player, but has no library for sorting genres etc.
its buttons are too small as well imo
well, I tried to install the originally HTC Audio Manager (qvga), but it doesnt start - the taskbar shortly changes to "load rc fail" and nothing happens
so I installed Audio Manager VGA which I found around here, but the .exe doesnt work as well because of an error message about an unsigned security certificate
I even get this message, although I disabled the security policy in my Touch Pro's registry to ignore those warnings
I'd really like to get the HTC Audio Manager on my Touch Pro, but if you'll tell me, theres no possibility, it would be nice if theres another similar cool player which you suggest
Whats wrong with the built in player integrated with TF3D? If you select the left option and open the library you get all of the options like the old Audio Manager Program and the same functionlity just a modefied look to it. You can even use the "scroll wheel" thing to advance your songs time and other "iPod" like features similar to the old Audio Manager.
While I liked the old audio manager and the way it worked I like having it built into TF3D so I dont have to load anything to play my music, its already there, playlists and all.
It did take a little getting used to since they redid the UI but it works just a well for me.
I think PocketPlayer is what you are looking for.
HTH
i dont like to use the TF3D, so I disabled it
much thanks to DeepThought, the PocketPlayer is really nice!

Ah, makes sense, Pocket player is a good alternative, forgot about that one
I think is should be the correct forum for this. If any of you use core player, nitrogen, pocket music, or whatever, you'll notice that windows media player often hijacks your bluetooth controls. I've noticed this in quite a few pre cooked roms, but not when I cook my own using the kitchen. Is this a bug or a feature of the chefs and can it be disabled?
What you want is a stock "BTHCI.DLL", if i recall correctly

To clarify what Da_G just said . . .
Da_G said:

the stock BTHCI.DLL for WM 6.1/Raphael does as you describe. WMP is always controlled by AVRCP, no matter what player you're using (unless it's HTC Music Player). The modified BTHCI.DLL that Da_G provided for WM6.5 corrects that "issue" by allowing other media players to access AVRCP control. However, this breaks the AVRCP functionality of HTC Music Player.
If you prefer to use the 6.5 BTHCI.DLL file, I made a cab install of it:
T-Back 6.5 BT Driver.cab
Thanks to Da_G for providing the updated driver!
P.S. The reason you don't have the issue when cooking in Da_G's 6.5 Kitchen is because Da_G included it in the "Mods" folder.
wow man, you guys rock. Thanks G and thank you captain for the cab. You guys and this community just make every visit fantastic. Thanks a lot for this. Windows media player was driving me nuts.
I have a Sprint Touch Pro and was a little frustrated that I couldn't use the AVRCP controls from my BT8010 with my favorite mp3 player Pocket Music. When I found this thread, I was excited to use the T-Back 6.5 BT Driver and it worked very well! The play/pause and skip/next features work well within PocketMusic! However, now in order to get the audio to play through my bluetooth headset, I need to go to my Bluetooth settings and disconnect then connect my BT8010 before it works.
Has anyone run into this problem too?
Caption_Throwback, You are my Hero!!!!! I have been without AVRCP controls since last May. I use Pocket Player, as it has many controls that I need, but I've been frustrated by their lack of support on this problem.
I will be sending you $$ tomorrow morning.
Wendy, now in N. Calif, but a Bristol Gal born & raised!
Da_G & Captian_Throwback, YOU GUYS are True PPC PIMPS..
Thanks....
thank you for this!
it this "only" for WM6.5?
would be nice for WM6.1 too
Works on 6.1

I'm on an at&t fuze, WM6.1, works like a charm. I mean, all the time, everytime. I use Pocket Player from Conduits for my media player. I have Forward xx seconds and Pause/play again. Life is Good! ps, I don't use Windows Media player, so can't say if it works or not.
you are so right - thank you so much
Thanks for this cab file - I've been looking for an answer for this for ages!
I've installed the cab and bt headset no longer starts up wmp, but still cannot get it to control Coreplayer - do I need to set it up somehow elsewhere, like ACRCP app, and if so, what settings should I use?
Many thanks

It works fine with CorePlayer for me without doing anything. Did you soft reset after installing the cab and/or restart CorePlayer?
Yes mate - done all that. I am using Energy rom 6.5
Maybe I'll try reinstalling Coreplayer or something
Just found this thread and wondering if it will help me. I am presently using NRG's energy ROM for the touch diamond 2 (6.5)
Since going to the 6.5 ROM, BT control only links to WMP but I want it to link to HTC Audio Manager. Will this cab have the desired effect?

Sorry, dont know too much about this but you say it breaks the functunality for htc audio player - it is already not responding to this program. My aim is to disable windows media player funtionality and then somehow create a link to htc audio manager. It probably cant be done but this is one of the few posts I have found that offered a glimmer of hope.
hope they resolve the issue on future ROMs

Unfortunately, you can't have it both ways .
The BT driver included in the ROM you're using is the same one posted in this thread as a cab. It enables AVRCP for all other players (and prevents WMP from launching when trying to use AVRCP controls with another app), but doesn't work with the HTC Music Player. The "stock" BT driver will restore the AVRCP functionality of HTC Music Player, but if you want to use a player other than that one or WMP, then AVRCP won't work at all; it'll simply launch WMP.
P.S. Just to clarify - with the stock BT driver, WMP does NOT override HTC Music Player AVRCP control. So if that's all you're trying to accomplish (for it to behave as the stock ROM), that is doable.
Can you make one for TOPAZ?
Thanks

Does not work for my topaz.
UDK RC4
I'm trying to get TCPMP to work on this device (checked the threads already) and can't seem to get TCPMP 0.721RC Recomp to work on this device.
The problems I'm having is that when I install the program is fine. When I open the application the bottom buttons (play, stop and fast forward) are missing. When I load up a video the phone crashes and I have to soft-reset to get the functionality back and remove the program.
I did a search and it mentioned something about a "special" verison of TCPMP that is supposed to work with this device but I spent about 2.5 hours reading all the threads and now I'm really confused.
I guess what I'm wondering is how do I get it to work on this device (0721RC Recomp worked on my 6800 with 6.1) or does core player work as well as TCPMP?
I'm running the stock 6.1 rom with the clean up cab.
Thanks for your help....
Both work fine for me. The graphics in TCPMP for play/pause, FF, and stop are messed up like you say, but it still works.
Core works fine on mine.
Core v1.3.2
could not get tcpmp 0.72rc to run.....but core player1.3.6 works fine
TCPMP 0.721RC works for me. Did you install the Flashbundle? I also have black buttons but it works though.
It works for me NP. Stock VZW 6.1 ROM. Only problem I have is setting Hot Keys. Nearly every key registers the same key code. K for Raphael supposedly is a short term fix. Have there been any better key map fixes released yet, that allows the use of the whole keyboard?
I have the same problem.
I couldn't play .flv payers.
please help me
my phone is sprint htc touch pro2
I use the TCPMP from http://code.google.com/p/tcpmp-revive/downloads/list. There is a nice skin too. All buttons work fine as well. I watch movies on the train during morning/evening commute.
To all cooks, in all of the most resent roms with WM6.5 or WM6.1 running TF3D 2.0/2.1 or higher the audiomanager doesn't work with avcrp (bluetooth remote control) so I have to get my phone out of my jacket when I want to go to the next song, my remote control doesn't work. I'm aware that this is a bug in the audiomanger, but is there anyone who have fixed this yet? I'm absolutely not a fan of wmp or other players, and I'm stuck with some old wm6.1 version where avcrp still works.
Does anyone has a solution for this?
Edit; CR192 Touch HD™ V6.5.0.0.2 has a new engine `Audio Manager Engine ( LEO )´ which works, maybe other rom cooks can use this aswell to get avcrp up and running
Hello!
I have same problem, i think the bug is in wich program has to answer to remote button presses. I think wmp and manilla audio manager are both answering to buttons on remote and all music playback goes to hell
Usualy when i press play/pause button audio manager starts to play song and wmp is starting in the background, then music starts to shater and in while all comes to hold
To listen to the music via bluetooth i disabled music tab in manilla, and im using wmp
BHole
I believe this should solve your issue. Except, if you Plan on using MSVC, make sure you install that first then the cab, that's only if you don't have it already in the ROM.
AVCRP fix
Here is a cab that i been using. and it works like a charm
Thanks for your reply's, I'll try to flash a new rom when I'm home with one (or booth) of the cabs. I'll let you know if it worked
