Bluetooth In Mango...Any Changes? - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has there been any new features as far as bluetooth is concerned? any way to file transfer pictures or mp3s with the final rtm leak?
if not will there be any changes?

No. all BT settings are the same. No music in video over BT also.

Mango now has AVRCP 1.3 which is a very nice addition. You can view metadata (title, track, playtime) on compatible devices now.

So my Sony Ericson stereo headset MIGHT display song titles. Nice
Modem teathering would still be nice but I think Mango is going to add support for wifi hotspots now (at least on newer devices) so that should aleaviate my issues there

Are there any solution for unlocked devices?

Music to your BT headset

Hi all,
BlueMusic is a software that will allow you to listen to music played on your PocketPC with your Bluetooth headsets. It's now easy to listen to your MP3s and many other audio formats, wherever you are with your Wireless Bluetooth Headset. The software is capable of controlling the voice routing. Not only the speaker sound is routed, but also the microphone input. Now you can use your Bluetooth Headset together with Voice Over IP (VoIP) software installed on your device. This software also works with Skype.
Note: this software was created for pocket pc's with windows mobile 2005. pocket pc 2003 wont work with BlueMusic. We might add the support for 2003 in later versions.
Even if your headset does not support it the software will add this feature. Use it for Voip apps or to record notes directly from your bt headset!!

Haykuro 4.5 Bluetooth Profiles

Does the latest stable (4.5) Haykuro cupcake support stereo bluetooth and bluetooth file transfer? I miss having my stereo headphones for MP3 and I really miss being able to bluetooth mp3's, pictures and documents directly to other phones, laptops and printers.

problem with bluetooth headset - play/pause, back/for not working

hello,
i have a bluetooth headset philips shb 7100.
The bt-headset paired and connected successful with my device.
But the functions play/pause and back/forward not working.
I can hear music, volume control and the calloptions also working.
Is the reason the widcomm stack in acer neotouch?
There is a solution for this?
OR
knows someone a stereo bt-headset that works with this functions (play/pause,back/for)?
doesn't work for me either
Hi!
I have a motorola HT820, and I can't play/pause/next/previous with it either, all though the headset worked fine with iMate SP5 and HP 614c
The problem seems to be that Acer (or at least the ROMs I'm using) don't support the AVRCP (Audio Video Remote Control Profile).
So until someone figures out a way to include this profile, we're stuck!

yes, I read it in the www
I installed the "avrcp agent" (to find here in forum)
Nothing.
What I not understand:
my headset works with the windows media player mobile with this functions, but with no other musicplayer??
(is in the wmp the avrcp support..)
but wmp is not good to use
I am now using jabra bt3030. it works perfectly in AVCRP.
however, the ACVRP funtion only works in WMP default player.
I had tried to use the funtion in pocket music, coreplayer, mortplayer, nitrogen, but all don't work.
Only works in WMP! Don't know why and hope there is a way to solve it. I don't like WMP too.
I find that it now works with WMP, but I'm not sure if it was because I installed AVRCP agent.
(When I was using Rafyvitto's vanilla ROMs, it didn't work even with WMP...)

News!
pocketplayer 4.1 (no freeware) with the plugin "conduit wm adapter 2.31" (gen_wmhost.dll) works!
The plugin must be configure:

Look into the FAQs of S2P on their site. There's a link to a xda-thread where you will find a modified dll which could work with our s200. It disables the hijacking of BT-Signals by the WMP.
I actually would directly the thread, but it's not allowed for new users to post links :-(
Hope it helps...

According to this, AVRCP should work with HTC Music Player as well (not just WMP), but in my case it only works with WMP... but let's check it and see...

I tested s2p with the t-back driver.
no success

+1, mine is ACER neotouch S200 most recent acer ROM. Nothing work with my bluetooth headset philips shb 7100 other than the darn useless boring WMP . Sometime I just want to totally give up window mobile and try something else, but I have already invested too much on window mobile medical applications.
Car audio Bluetooth connection not working
hi...
I see many of you already have had some problems with bluetooth connections with this phone...but all of you say that at least can put the WMP working...
I'm trying to connect my S200 to the car audio (sony from 08 Ford Focus) and it's not working...the car audio system doesn't recognize the phone, but te phone says it's connected...
Is there any known bug for this? any way I can workaround this problem?
Tkx
I use Pocket Player, with plug-in 'Conduits WM Adaptor 2.31', checked to 'Intercept/Override WMP', checked to 'BT Remote Control', after that can use A2DP .
I also use PocketMusic, but still not know how to config A2DP .

[Q] Integrate new version of bluez with AVRCP 1.3 into custom kernel?

Bluez development team is getting ready to release version 4.97 with new bluez version that implements AVRCP 1.3 profile. This is very important feature for anyone who uses the phone with any bluetooth enabled car audio system. Unfortunately, ICS doesn't suport it. Can this be integrated into one the custom kernels?

AVRCP 1.3 on BlueZ
During the past weeks I’ve been working again on the BlueZ project and now we can finally announce that the AVRCP 1.3 profile is officially supported.
Technical background
For those who don’t know what I’m talking about, here comes a little background for those buzzwords:
BlueZ is the user-space part of the Bluetooth® technology stack used on Linux and Android. It has support for several Bluetooth profiles such as RFCOMM, HID, PAN, PBAP, OBEX, HFP, A2DP (some of them are implemented as separate projects) that are defined by the Bluetooh SIG. In simpler terms, BlueZ is what allows your Linux device to do amazing things with Bluetooth technology such as stream stereo music, make phone calls and other wireless magics.
One of these profiles supported by BlueZ is AVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control Profile), which allows two devices to communicate through Bluetooth technology and exchange commands/messages to control the music/video being played.
New features
Until some weeks ago BlueZ only had support for version 1.0 of the AVRCP protocol. This early version allows a Controller device (e.g. a Bluetooth technology-based car kit) to tell the Target device (e.g. a smartphone) to play, pause, go to next music and go to previous music. We’ve now upstreamed an implementation of AVRCP Version 1.3, which adds some nice features to the previously supported version, such as:
Transmitting metadata of the music being played;
Change Application Settings such as Equalizer, Repeat, Shuffle and Scan modes;
Set current status of media playback: playing, stopped, paused, forward-seeking, reverse-seeking.
Some time ago I bought a Bluetooth stereo car kit. How boring it was having the ability to stream music from my phone but not see any information regarding who was playing, which album, etc. This is no more. Now we have proper support for AVRCP 1.3 . Our ProFUSION team utilized the open source baseport for the OMAP™ processor-based Blaze™ mobile development platform from Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) to help achieve this milestone. Additionally, we worked together with TI on testing and debugging to make this AVRCP 1.3 support a reality. Below you can see yours truly holding a Blaze™ mobile development platform from TI, sending music metadata to a Bluetooth technology-enabled car kit.
Awesome!
This is great news! I am very eager to get this working in my Nexus S.
Any update on this? I would love to see a way to implement this in a rooted phone...
bumpity bump
will he a gooood thing, no other news? bye

Any ROMs with the updated Bluez bluetooth stack?

The more recent releases of the Bluez bluetooth stack for linux
(the one used in the Android codebase) incorporate nearly all
the full features of bluetooth:
Provided by BlueZ:
A2DP 1.2
AVRCP 1.3
DI 1.3
HDP 1.0
HID 1.0
HFP 1.5
PAN 1.0
SPP 1.1
Of most pressing interest to me right now is AVRCP or Audio/Video
Remote Control Profile. This is what is used by remote devices
controlling what is playing on our phones. Currently gingerbread
(and therefore our sensations) are using AVRCP 1.0 - this is for basic
pause/play, skip/back functionality.
The newer profile AVRCP 1.3 allows the phone to send the remote
control the track metadata as well, so your car or bluetooth headset will
show the 'Now Playing' track name instead of being annoyingly blank or
just saying 'bluetooth'.
So as this blankness has started to really annoy me I am
desperate to know if there are any kernels or Roms where people
have integrated the new Bluez stack (or just have AVRCP 1.3
enabled)?
If there are no existing roms, are there any projects to develop
this for the sensation?
Restoring some functionality that was present in my old nokia
phones (smart & dumb), even in the old WinMo HD2 and most
annoyingly - the iPhone, would hopefully benefit all users of the
sensation.
I noticed that the new Motorola RAZR actually supports AVRCP 1.4,
so is there any way to port that back to us?
Thanks
Bump! I am also interested to know if anything is being developed / updated for the Sensation's BT stack.
Also curious about this as well. I've got a rooted Vizio vtab1008 with Gingerbread, and development on that platform is pretty quiet. The Bluetooth stack it has is terrible (although not nearly as bad as the one on my LG Ally) - it simply can't keep its bearings about itself when trying to use a Motorola Bluetooth stereo headset. Audio skips and stutters annoyingly much of the time (rare to get a "clean" session), and almost completely loses its mind if the device goes to sleep and wakes up while the headset is connected - the connection integrity breaks down so bad it often disconnects itself completely or locks up the Bluetooth stack.
So... that said...
I was interested in finding a way to make this work, if it hasn't yet already been done or proven impossible. Not intimately familiar with the Linux platform inside-and-out, but I've gotten pretty good at it (*almost* had a working build environment compiled on the device itself once - just forgot about it). First thing I can think might be a barrier is if the updated version needs to have all the app-interface core libraries or interfaces to be recompiled under the new BlueZ version's libraries - which may be a PITA, though if I understand the architecture correctly, there's only a handful of higher layers in the stack that would be "touching" BlueZ and be affected. Or am I way off? :/
bump ....
this would be sooo awesome
just buyed an sony ericson mw600 an get the the title information shown up with the CM7 ROM.
Only works with the stock player, but it has AVRCP 1.3
Bump!
AVRCP is ROM reliant? or music player?
Cause I would like to use BT audio streaming between my Sensation (ARHD6.6.3 with faux123 6b5) and my car kit (VW).
Thanks!
I have an HTC Sensation 4G on TMOUS, and I am looking for the same solution here. I am rooted with a stock rom, latest ICS.
Does anyone know how to get AVRCP 1.3 on my phone, or a ROM that supports that profile?
Also, does anyone know if JB will support this newer profile?
Thanks!
bump
