RADIO - Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development

It seems common sense that the RADIO ROM is not the best ...
The RADIO´s which can be used are also limited ....
Which RADIO works best for you ?
How can "we" improve it ?
thanks
myrin

You mean the FM radio?
My prob with it is that the basic volume level is lower than the media player and even on max it is too low in a noisy environment (e.g. tram etc.).
I would like to know if this can be fixed somehow...

the RADIO ROM

Im using the Diamond Radio by Dutty. Radio v1.00.25.08
Seems to be the best ATM (atleast for me).
Search XDA-Devs for how to flash these and to download them.

i'm not glad with this default radio rom. bluetooth and gsm were not as well as i expected.
and also gps; i have tested i-mate ultimate 9502 gps, it was great.i'm not sure that gps functionality is including radio or not but i think it could be better.

I'm using the Diamond 1.00.25.05 which worked great for me on my Diamond and seems to be as good on my TP on Tmobile in London.

I had a .25 radio, which I flashed to the .31 one. There always seems to be problems with the GPS and BT. BT drives me really crazy to be honest, in the morning, when I hop into my car, the phone connects to my Parrot CK-3100 BT HF and syncs. When I make a call, sometimes it's ok, other times the phone disconnects after I release the call. I have to reconnect manually like every 10-15 minutes. And of course, when I want to make a call in the office, near my BT enabled laptop, the phone automatically connects to the laptop in HF mode which I did not even check in the services list of both the phone and laptop! Anybody else with the same experience?

Those are radios cooked by Bepe. They are not stable on the Rapael. Try other radios for example ones made by Dutty.

Bluetooth issues with WM2003SE 2.06.00WWE

Having just upgraded to WM2003SE 2.06 (SIN v3.5) ROM, i've found Bluetooth hedset profile to still not work properly with my Sony HBH-600. I can pair my headset without issue, however when i make calls the headset kicks in for about 2 seconds then passes the call back to the phone.
Can anyone suggest anything to try to fix this?
Bluetooth just wouldn't work reliably with the inital Windows Mobile 2003.
When I upgraded to Windows Mobile 2003 SE (based on 2.02t ROM), my bluetooth headset microphone didn't work (only the XDA handset), this was less than ideal. Now with the WM2003SE 2.06 ROM it's worse than ever!
All this just to talk to someone without a wire......technology, gotta love it!
Thanks for any help!
Can anyone help at all? Thanks
Found the fix
I think i found what my issue was, i was selecting yes to "hands free" profile, hence not getting the "headset" profile offer.
Once i selected the correct profile, guess what, it works now without any issues at all.
Stupid user error!

Qtek8500: Microphone loopback!!

Successfully upgraded my Qtek 8500 (UK) with both the Cingular and QTEK latests ROM
Works great.
Using for 2 days and now my microphone feeds everything back through earpiece and no one hears anything other end.
Same with walk and talk headset.
Works fine when working with bluetooth headset or car kit.
Is this a hardware fault and just coincidence, or have I messed up the registry or Radio etc.
Anyone seen similar.
Many thanks
Try a hard reset. Sounds like something may be corrupt in your audio managment files.
Just tried a hard reset, but no joy I'm afraid.
I have reloaded the ROM twice as well.
Is there a way to rebuild and reload these management files.
It has to be software as the walk and talk headset uses a different electronic channel and separate mic!
Well that's my theory
http://www.jetwaremobile.com/install.htm
Here's a link to Jetware Mobile's website. Since you are obviously using a Bluetooth headset and a handsfree car kit, it may be that the BT extension is getting twisted up. You can download and install a free trial I believe for 30 days. I did not need this for my BT connections with the QTEK 8500 but these things can be very hardware specific. By the way, did you try the phone after hard reset and prior to pairing with any of your BT devices?
Sorry to clarify, it is the handset mike that is not working.
When used with BT, voice is transmitted OK to recipient.
However using handset by itself all you hear is a slightly delayed repeat of your own voice in the handset earpiece and the call recipient hears nothing.
Thanks

I had a similar thing happen to a Sony Z600 and traced the problem to a resistor that failed. Apparently this controled where to route the audio when a wired headset was plugged in and when it failed everything routed through the headset port vs the speaker. Not sure if this is what's happening to your Qtek, I've got one as well and sometimes it just acts wierd, drops calls, wont hang up, wont recognize key presses but I just attribute it to the MS operating system. By the way, you can pick up Z600's fairly cheap, it's a great 2nd phone & syncs with outlook, I picked up another after my first crapped out with no problems.

i have used also the other accplication bt watch listed here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1960856
i am encountering bluetooth headset loss, (jawbone) whenever i get a call it works for a minute or 2 then disconnects for 10 seconds (diverts from headset to speaker) and then it connects back to t he jawbone fine.
Lots of itmes i get occasional loss in connectivity between the watch and the phone and notice that i have to click on a button from the watch bottons to reconnect it again.
My question to you is, what sthe bext version of BT watch or smart watch to use and wit what rom for the watch to be effective, all i care about is knowhing when i get emails tect messages and a phonecall with a caller ID . dont care for anything else. please help me as to what rom you chose that is stable and works with the BT watch mbw-100 thank you for your feedback in advance, (some roms drain the battery of te watch within 7 hours like the ap3) ap4 was ok and ap5 is ok, it lasts 2 days)
what sofrtare you use, what version and with what rom, do you get occasional loss in bluetooth connectivity? what should i do? anyway to improve bt ?
Thanks a lot

I use your same version of software on COM1 and I ended up reverting to WM5 which on the MBW150 side is very good (wise choice not to get the spl3.5 one way ticket).
-No random disconnections during standard use
-Still random disconnections of the watch while on headphones, but I disable MBW long pressing the lower right button and reactivate it after the call)
-Disconnections from the watch when I use voice command (same long pressing trick as I'm expected to make a call)
-MBW's Battery still full after three days of continuous use
-Bt stereo streaming perfect, apart from initial short lack of sound during MBW data communication (I disabled join stereo with schap's Advanced Configuration Tool).
Going back to Athena's roots in my case did the job. In fact WM5 fits my needs (everything I need works fast and as expected) and I can rely on a secure and discreet connection with it through the watch. I'm only missing gps on the camera's thrills which seems to be a wm6 only option.
I'm curious about the AP5, but will wait for the Vanilla version to check it.
See my signature for the other testing I made...
Thank you for the reply Karmarock,
i have heard that wm5 gives the best battery life but i am already using spl 3.5 and i dont like wm5, i like the instant search feature of wm5 in emails text messages and many other things that wm6 has . as for the software i guess none is stable that dont cause the watch to disconnect..

HELP: Michy’s R4.1 and skipping voice problems during conversation with Jabra BT 8010

Guys,
Once again I am turning to you with a problem which is driving me nuts… After several attempts (ROMs and registry settings), I simply cannot get it working. I am using Jabra BT8010 handset and I get complaints from some, but not all, people I talk to over the phone that my voice is skipping. Some fragment of the words (a letter or two) is simply missing - not heard – by my talking partner. This has also happend to me when using official or irus ROM!!
First let me say that after I installed Michy’s R4.1 ROM the things with BT has changed a bit – in positive direction. I noticed that because the Jabra connects to the phone faster then before, when phone is rebooting the BT connection sign is gone immediately, etc. This was not the case with the original ROM nor iruses ROM 0mb PP. At this point I’d would like to thank Michy for that, since the file transfer to and from Athena now works almost flawlessly as well.
Please note that I get no skipping sound in downlink direction: nor during phone call nor during streaming of music or videos - the sound quality is just great!
But the voice skipping is just frustrating. What to do? I have tried twitching several settings in registry: BitPool, MaxBitPool, Sample rate and Use Joint Stereo. But, no combination resulted in no-skipping sound. Is it Jabra? Could you suggest what to do next in order to get this working!!!
PLEASE HELP!

I don't use bluetooth headset myself, but would suggest that you try out the latest R5.1. I find R5.1 to be much better than R4.1 in the data connection, GPS, and WIFI communication, and have no problem in bluetooth file transfer. However, I recommend that you use the latest radio version 1.58.
I find my VOIP experiencing voice quality improvement as compared to R4.1 with radio 1.57.
After trying it, I'd be eager to hear if that helps.
Cheers.
eaglesteve,
Meanwhile I got my hands on Motorola HS810. Guess what: no voice skipping or distortion what so ever!! So is there something wrong with my Jabra or simply the BT or its settings are not matching to Jabra? Someone suggested to delete the Bitpool and MaxBitPool from the registry to get protocol handshake, i.e. the device negotiate for optional parameters…?
I will try R5.1 and report back.
One question though in regards to BT and file transfer since you mentioned it: the feature to make my device visible to other keeps disabling automatically. Once I set it (check) and file transfer (via moBLUe) works, but sometimes - I swear I didn't touch the settings - the file transfer (via moBLUe) does not work. When I check the feature the feature is disabled!?!?! WTF...? I am doing something wrong or...
BR

I had the same problem with my 8010 until I went to radio 1.57 (and then 1.58, although 58 isnt as good as 57 for sound quality and the 8010). Im not using Michy but that shouldnt matter.

Eaglesteve, what solution do you have for VOiP?
weird. i am on michy 4.1 spl 1.2 and radio 1.57, and i think i have the same problem, but only with skype voice calls.
i am using plantronics pulsar 260.
it is so bad that the word "hello" breaks into 3 or 4 fragments.

Using Jabra BT8040 with Athena and another cell phone,
poor performance, ocassional voice breaking and soft.
Just upgrade its firmware and monitoring.
With another simple bluetooth by Motorola H375,
no such issue, voice was clear and loud both ways.
I have tried several settings with radio 1.58 as well as 1.57 and in all cases the voice is distorted with Jabra BT8010 ;(
On the other side, using the Motorola HS810 I expirienced no problems at all at any setting i gave. Eventhough I like Jabra VERY much due to its features I will replace it...
I'm on ROM AP4, you might try that, too.

I have same expertise as you (jabra with some troubles). But if I connect this headset to a blackberry no problems and it is perfect
I have 7500/4.1(3.5) and a BT8010. I have solid connection with my blue tooth.
From your descriptions, it sounds like you have a defective 8010.

This is my second Jabra 8010. I have experienced the same problem with both!
Yesterday, I have flashed Athena to Michy's R5.1. No change.. the voice skipping is still present ;(
I decided and will replace Jabra. I have two candidates: Nokia BH-902 or Motorola SH-7x0. As said Motorola before Motorola SH810 gives very good – no distortion – voice! Will see how the Nokia behaves. Any pros and cons for each???
Thanks guys for your help.

Yes, same effect here, I'm using the Jabra 8010 also and have sometimes the same problem. From my point of view it is a jabra problem, not a ameo / athena nor a ROM problem.
After updating on radio 1.58 I have some problems with the connection to my Pioneer carraudio Sytem (used as a handsfree set) also. So I've decided to go back to 1.50, after that I will update on michyprima and check it....
Kind regards

Hi all, I'm new to this forum, but I have learned a great deal from you guys & gals! Hail to all!
I have the same problem with my U1000 & bt8010 under Radio 1.57 & 1.5.
For me, the problem seems less noticeable if I:
1. stand / sit STILL (sigh...)
2. have more ram to the system (no big TODAY plug-ins like spbDiary)
In theory the 8010 is perfect for big dogs like the athena. (gosh i love the phonebook and the music ... even mono makes me happy ...)
Just a simple suggestion but based on what I've read on this last page with you guys changing the radio's and ROM's has anyone decided to update the Jabra BT 8010 Firmware. I've never experienced the problems you guys have it might be a last hope but why not go for it. Firmware found here:
http://uswww03.gnnetcom.com/Myjabra...=/myjabra/bt8010_control_center_na.html#step1
The software is at the bottom of the page, however you will also need to install the program to you computer to actually install the firmware. Follow the directions provied on the link, and feedbacks please.

tootallk2000,
I have been using the FW 1-40-0 for more then a year now and compared to older FWs it does not make a difference

In my post #12 I claimed I had "solid connection with my blue tooth". I spoke too soon. The first time I played music on Pocket Music I got lots of skipping.
This was also a problem discussed at length last year. I did a reg search on "priority256" and found that the decimal number was 131.
I changed it to 256 and NOW I have "solid connection with my blue tooth". I have not had a single skip in 15 minutes of playing music.
OOPS - I just got a 1/2 second skip.
on my post at #6, i also spoke too soon. when i tested skype at our office (faster dsl connection), the voice is smooth, no skipping. i guess it was just an internet connection problem.

[Q][FLYER] how to keep BT radio alive?

I use A2DP with JABRA headset e.g. with Sygic + Navigon route planners.
Every time when a spoken instruction is started the BT radio is swithed on but appearently needs some time to go alive and you always miss the first part of the instruction on the headset.
I sincerely hoped (this is my main application for the flyer) that after the official FOTA of HC this would be somehow fixed but sadly it is not.
Does anyone know a workaround or a solution for this?
Is there a way to not switch off the BT radio with silence while BT is switched on? (nevermind the battery use!)
Thanks
Ronald
Clearly I need to find another forum for this issue.
Any suggestions where?
Clearly
Sent from my PG41200 using XDA App
Clearly,,,,
but its not the radio turning off, if the radio turned off, it would disconnect/ this happens on a lot of devices, especially hands-free car devices, they miss the first part of audio when its not continuously streaming. Happens on my Flyer and Moto and Samsung phones with my Moto BT car device. There's no solution available.
