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...

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
Uros
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.

I've tried several of the SE roms floating aroung the forums with my I-mate and finally setteled with the translated 2.20.07CHS one.
This rom obviously has Hands-free profile implemented to some degree, I bond my Bluetrek-G2 with the phone, and a long keypress on the G2 properly invokes the "Last call redial" feature of Hands-free.
My question is: to what extent is the hands-free profile implemented? Specifically I'm interested to know whether the "Caller ID" feature is implemented, so that headsets with built-in LCD displays for caller ID (e.g. Sony-Ericsson HBH-660 and the upcoming Jabra BT800) can be put to full use.
Any experience regarding this issue?
I saw some review/post from people with caller ID bt Headset
saying that is working fine , with the caller ID with the 2.20 CHS ROM
Were those posts on any of the XDA-DEVELOPRS forums?
NO, I saw them @ some chinese forum
which few model of caller ID Bt , working fine
"peoples say"
Here is my experience with an XDAII and a SE HBH-660
With ROM 2.02.t1, can setup the HBH-660 as a handsfree device, caller id works great, but the mic on the headset does not work at all!
With ROM 2.06, can only setup the HBH-660 as handset device, so clearly caller id does not work here, but at least the mic on the headset works!
Haven't tried 2.20, got tired of reflashing and hard-resetting my device after trying every steps suggested in the forum, even merging the 2.02.t1 and 2.06, which still has the same problem as the 2.02.t1 ...
Currently sticking to ROM 2.06 and using Pocket Bluetooth Tools 1.10. At least I can redial from the HBH-660, answer calls and transfer calls back and forth between the HBH-660 and the XDAII ...

You may have a look at this thread to see how to turn on the Handsfree on ROM 2.06
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=14386
Tried that as well ... got even worse results, sometimes the headset works and sometimes it doesn't ... have embarassed myself in front of people by wearing the headset on my left ear and still putting the phone to my right ear ...
skuld, I suggest you try 2.20.07CHS, it is the most stable 2003SE out there, and Bluetooth works great for me using the Handsfree profile (sound only comes out of the headset and the headsets' mic is operational).
I intend to purchase the Jabra BT-800 as soon as it is released and hope toi take advantage of full Handsfree functionality with it finally.
If you do decide to upgrade to 2.20.07CHS, please let me know if caller id works for you with your HBH-660.
so?
So, basicallly, the non-chinese speakers, are stuck with non fully working BT profiles, since handsfree option identifies every headset as hansdfree, and then the problem with the "stereo" effect appears.
In my case, both (device and XDA) mics and both speakers work simultaneously either in SE HBH 35 headset or BT Carkit.
Can please confirm 2.20 version solves that totally?
Any idea on why it has not been released in WWE?
2.20 indeed solves this problem, I'm currently running 2.20 for several days with no problems, the translation to English provided by Buzz is impressive and comprehansive. I don't speak a work of Chinese yet have no problems using my device, I have yet to come up with a Chinese message-box/notification of any kind. Bluetooth works flawlessly with my Bluetrek G2 using Hands-free profile.
Ummm..
Will give it a chance.
Keep me informed should you find any other problem using this version.
:wink:
yes so far so good
2.2 is a offical OS ROM for dopod 696 , which the same hardware as xda2
so it is working fine with the caller ID & bt sound
Anyone can provide me the complete REG file of 2.20CHS?

I converted the reg file from default.fdf of the ROM, but it seems to be incomplete when I compare it against 2.02 and 2.06.
I understand that Kinglee uploaded the PHM reg backup file. Can someone give me a hint how I might convert that file to a text readable format?

I can confirm that 2.20 uses different bluetooth DLLs than 2.02 or 2.06.
After configuring BT headset, the user is prompted with BTBond_UI.exe screen with checkbox for headset/handsfree enabled, and greyed out checkbox for ActiveSync, Dial-up Networking and Serial.
There is quite a number of differents in the registry settings as well.
I think I just about manage to port 2.20 BT over to 2.06 (or 2.02 for that matter).
However, I need you guys to give me pointers on a couple of things:
(a) for handsfree profile - can 2.20CHS users enable the handsfree profile and use only the headset microphone to speak to the recipient?
(b) what about current 2.02 users?
(c) What can 2.20 CHS users do with their current BT settings? Please describe what you are allowed to do.
- No merry christmas present...hopefully, there's one for happy new year, aye? :wink: -
can someone post the file BTBond_UI.exe i need to try it on 2.02t version
BTHFP
Ok here's the skinny.
On 2.06 got BT HandsFree profile to pickup and end calls via headset with stereo audio but headset mic still off (Xda II mic on).
Anyone got the headset mic to work?
Need 2.20 registry to understand how BTBond_UI.exe and other *.dll works.
I posted blue tooth mic not responding to voice input topic a couple of days ago, from responses I got ... I decided to upgrade from 2.02 to 2.20 CHS, (it's a good upgrade it's got WMP 10 but no letter recogniser or transcriber input ??).... but alas G2 BT would still not respond to voice.
Then I had an idea..... I went back to the the 1.72 ROM (radio 1.17) and guess what ? The G2 blue trek headet now works Not really what you'd call progress....... but a fix !!
I would like to upgrade back to WM2003SE, but I have no idea what combination of ROM software will deliver the latest features of the upgrade plus the full functionality for the bluetooth device ??
So anybody out there know what combination works ??

Are you saying under 1.72 your G2 is able to enable HandsFree profile perfectly? What BT driver did you use Bro?
Steady...... I am just a beginner at this !!!
What I am saying is that with the 1.72.00 WWE ROM the G2 now works i.e I can hear through it and when I speak into it I can be heard. Pressing the button on the headset picks the call up and ends the call. What it doesn't do with this level of software is last number redial.
As for the BT software I have no idea what I am running ? Is there a way of finding out ? The 1.72 update was from the 02 site.
I have downloaded the 3500 BT patch and was wondering about upgrading back to 2.20.07 CHS + the patch and see if that works. Thoughts ? But I need the letter/Transcriber input and I am not sure where you get those and how to add them to the XDA2.
BTHFP
I am running both the WM2003SE MSBT and BC/WC 3500 BT on my Xda II.
Probably you are referring to the HeadSet profile Bro. We're discussing about the HandsFree profile - correct me if I am wrong.
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!
I am going mad -
before upgrading to WM2003 SE - my bluetrek G2 worked fantastically.
NOW
it sets it up as handsfree device - I hear people through the headset but people only hear me through the mike on the XDA - the bluetrek microphone seems to be "disabled" in handsfree mode.
ANY ideas how to enable the microphone on the bluetek headset so it is in HEADSET mode and not through the microphone input on the XDA ?
I have been looking for an aswer to same problem. Hopefully we can find something together. :idea:
Problem solved
When I upgraded to 2003 SE I had three main problems and spent hours trying to solve them:
1) Bluetooth handsfree automatically kicked in - when I needed headset mode - rendered my bluetrek headset useless.
2) e-mail attachments - enormous problems downloading and sending attachments
3) alarm clock - not ringing
I have solved all 3 problems by reinstalling the 2003 se rom using the rom of 2.06 instead of the "merged" rom which was causing me the above three problems - when upgrading be careful and beware of country code errors - I am no expert but I used the rom upgrade of Hery and reupgraded and am happy with the result. Every time upgrading is a dangerous excersise and if you like me just want a machine that works and not really technically minded - beware of upgrading. I was able to but was nervous the whole way through. They say version 2.06 hangs but its been OK for me. I do not have wizcom on my machine but the only bluetooth I use is the headset and for GPS which work with the microsoft bluetooth protocol.
Good luck
Since the main widcomm thread has become what I'd tend to call convoluted, I thought I might as well start a new thread in the hopes that somebody has experienced a similar problem and found a fix.
I installed the widcomm stack on an 8525, install went fine (yes, MS BT was disabled during install). Successfully paired my Pulsar 590A's and they seemed to work well. The audio fidelity was an incredible improvement.
The problem was the intermittent stops that occurred several times per song playing MP3's (generally encoded to 192) in Media Player. It was annoying enough that I hard reset, but my God I can't go back. The MS stack, even with the reg hack, is just is too horrible.
I'm running the plain ol 1.34.502.1 ROM with the 1.16 radio.
I should note that I installed HTweakC 2.0, and had run the bluetooth improve audio quality tweak prior to installing the widcomm stack. Don't know if that would make a difference or not.
Things I tried: I removed the HTweakC settings, soft reset. I shut down all the BT services except the high quality audio, soft reset. Deleted and repaired the headset, soft reset. Got fed up, hard reset lmao
So I'm going to take another stab at the widcomm stack, because as aforementioned, after experiencing the wid and then going back to MS, I can't abide the MS stack any longer.
Any suggestions, tips, whatever, would be awesome.

i suggest you watch your program memory levels while playing the 192 bitrate file and while running the widcomm stack... you will find that your device runs out of program memory... as media player required a fair amount of memory to play high bitrate files that only gives you a minimal amount left for the widcomm stack which also requires a decent amount...
i suggest you try mortplayer or a different mp3 player and see if u have the same issues...
Yeah that definately makes sense. I was careful about closing out everything but the media player and the bluetooth manager, but I had wondered if the higher bitrate levels were what was causing some of the problem. I'll try mortplayer and see if I get a better result.
Using MortPlayer is a good idea, especially with your Plantronics headphones, since AVRCP (play/pause/next/back buttons) should work with it.
Excellent, I'll def try that. I've got Widcomm back up and paired. I tried TCPMP first and I definately get less skips, but they do persist. I'll try Mort and see how that does, had just chosen to try TCPMP because it appeared to be less of a CPU hog. I am also wondering if the A2DP fix that Sleuth posted will do anything.
FWIW, I started experiencing more probs last night. Active sync via USB wouldn't work, and the memory issue started popping up. Boy, really is a frustrating issue. The audio quality is like 10x better, it pairs easier with my computers, and I like the interface. But grr, I'm at the point where I think I'm going back to MS again. I'll just bide my time until some of the bugs can be worked out. I really appreciate all the help though guys, this place is a treasure of unspeakable magnitude.
for me the skipping disappeard when using Sleuths A2DP Fix.
and this is a known error, not only with widcomm but with ms stack too.
i do not have the AS error nor memory problems with the widcomm stack, using Xda-live 0.2 and Widocm 0.3.
using mortplayer for music and tcmpg for video , no problems what so ever (except that i must sometimes (quite often) softreset to get my headset to pair (using plantronics 260)

Yup, it IS less of a CPU hog unless you use the equalizer - with about 70-80% (see my article in the General forum on the generic CPU usage of all MM players). However, it doesn't support AVRCP - only the latest version(s) of the commercial CorePlayer do so (see my AVRCP-compatibility articles).
If you need both AVRCP and very low CPU usage, go for iPlay.

As has been pointed out in several of my articles (do you follow them? They're all cross-posted to the General forum), if you install the Widcomm BT stack and don't apply the related COM Registry hacks, you can only use the "old" (pre-WM5) ActiveSync approach, NOT the newer. That is, in your case, you don't see your PDA because it'd require a different way of connection than before installing the Widcomm stack.
Try disabling your firewall / antivirus software to see whether they allow for the connection.

It does't - it only sets the MS BT stack quality parameters, NOT those of Widcomm.
Also see my Widcomm & MS BT stack quality-related article in the General forum, where I elaborated on all these parameters.

I've been working with the Widcomm BT Stack for a week now in combination with a Logitech Mobile Headset HS200. So far this is what I experienced:
XDA Live v0.20
- Connected using MS Stack, no tweaks: Poor sound quality / severe skipping
- Connected using WC Stack, no tweaks: Average sound quality / servere skipping
- Connected using WC Stack, Sleuth255 A2DP fix: Average sound quality / average skipping
HTC AKU 3.3 with 16MB poolsize
- Connected using WC Stack, Sleuth255 A2DP fix, several tweaks: Good Sound quality / average skipping
- Connected using MS Stack, Sleuth255 AD2P fix / workaround: Poor sound quality / almost no skipping.
Here it got interesting. Apparently without the Widcomm BT Stack the skipping was zero to none with all the tweaks. But the MS Stack sucks bigtime, so how much you tweak it won't sound as good as the WC Stack.
Now running WC Stack with Sleuth255's workaround to avoid skipping making some minor changes in the registry. Skipping is brought down to a minimal when using Widcomm BT Stack now, but I'm still not satisfied.
I'm waiting for the XDA v0.30 release, so I can try a 16MB poolsize and A2DP on WM6.
Edit:
Wow HTweak 2.0 greatly improved the sound quality. Still have some minor skipping, but for the time being I can live with this.

- Connected using MS Stack, no tweaks: Poor sound quality / severe skipping
- Connected using WC Stack, no tweaks: Average sound quality / servere skipping
- Connected using WC Stack, Sleuth255 A2DP fix: Average sound quality / average skipping
HTC AKU 3.3 with 16MB poolsize
- Connected using WC Stack, Sleuth255 A2DP fix, several tweaks: Good Sound quality / average skipping
- Connected using MS Stack, Sleuth255 AD2P fix / workaround: Poor sound quality / almost no skipping.
Here it got interesting. Apparently without the Widcomm BT Stack the skipping was zero to none with all the tweaks. But the MS Stack sucks bigtime, so how much you tweak it won't sound as good as the WC Stack.
Now running WC Stack with Sleuth255's workaround to avoid skipping making some minor changes in the registry. Skipping is brought down to a minimal when using Widcomm BT Stack now, but I'm still not satisfied.
I'm waiting for the XDA v0.30 release, so I can try a 16MB poolsize and A2DP on WM6.
Edit:
Wow HTweak 2.0 greatly improved the sound quality. Still have some minor skipping, but for the time being I can live with this.

I have never had skipping but the sound quality with the WC stack is just way better.
I've edited the LVSW edition to a 10mb pagepool to try how this works as I find the WC stack with normal pagepool to slow.
I will upload this version here:

Tnx might give it a try. Still waiting for XDA Live v0.30 release or perhaps the new Black v2.0 release everyone's talking about. Give a nice 16MB pagesize, and test the Widcomm BT Stack. I have this thing for new ROM's...

Hello,
I installed this ROM in my X01HT and WC Stack. After That, I did this:
1. Close BT Manager and turn BT off.
2. Open registry (need Resco Registry plug-in) and make the following changes (no need of soft reset after them):
[HKLM\Software\Widcomm\BTConfig\Applications\0001]
Change ComPortNumber from 8 to 7
[HKLM\Software\Widcomm\BTConfig\Services\0001]
Change ComPortNumber from 9 to 6
Rename [HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\Serial8] to [HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\Serial6] and change these subkeys acordingly
"FriendlyName"="Bluetooth Serial Port COM6:"
"DeviceArrayIndex"=dword:00000006
"Index"=dword:00000006
When you have changed this, suspend (off) the PDA for a few seconds and turn it on again. Then goto Bluetooth Settings- Services-Serial Port-Advanced and verify that thet ports that Widcomm is using are 6 & 7
But now I can't switch on the phone App. When I open the Comm App, and push the "Phone" button, it didn't start.
Please, somebody let me know what I'm doing bad.
Thanks
Cesar

What ROMs have 16 Mg of PoolSize? What is that ROM? Is it for Hermes?
i am just wondering if anyone else has the same problem with the widcomm for hermes as I do, when running the memory footprint goes from around 25 down to 2 mb in a matter of hours.
Anyone else noticed? (I am using black v.2 wm6)
(tried wit for 2 days without widcomm, no memeory loss, with widcomm memory loss was unavoidable)
anyone with a solution?
Well after installing gullom's Touch X i realize that the batery will go off very quickly.
So i install PDA VIET 4.0.0.0.6 Touch rom and I'm impress, but i have some questions.
1.I can't send or receive any file from bluetooth i think that i have to install bluetooth ftp but i cant find it anywere.
2.I have a pda in my work with pocket WM2003 and in the keyboard menu has an option transcriber i "google it" and i found a site that says that WM6 has it too but this rom doesn't??I'm I right???
3.I have a a car radio with a hands free bluetooth kit that when i receive a call it stops the music and plays the sound of the call on the phone.
My question is can i make the same with tomtom, not the complete sound of the pda, but the sound when tomtom gives an instruction.
4.Where can i found good software for my pda???Any sugestions.
Thanks and sorry for the non perfect english.
PS.My pda is Qtek S200 with the amazing rom PDAVIET 4.0.0.0.0.6 Touch
PS2.I decided to create a new post because of no awnser in the pdaviet post
1) No answer
2) The removal of transcriber is because of memory... Some cooked ROMs and some kitchens give the option to put transcriber back in.
3) Not sure if this is the right place...
4) Google/use any search engine it
The battery drain problem has been fixed or at least reduced in Touch XB.
Well l3v5y,
Thank you for your anwsers.
I liked the Touch X, but when i have it installed i have to make at least one a soft reset on my pda.
This rom (PDAVIET 4.0.0.0.6) it's much more stable that gullum's rom.
I'm having problems on this rom to get sending or reveiving files from bluetooth.
In touch X i have an option on bluetooth options to activate ftp to receive and send files.
I found a cab of transcriber,but after install it and going to transcriber option on the keyboard menu nothing appens.
Well thanks again for your help, if someone has the anwser for the other questions please say something (in particulary the question about tomtom, i think that this will be very usefull).
The easiest way to get the transcriber function would be a cooked ROM... I shall, if you want cook one for you if i can't find a cab soon...
hmm...
You can add the Transcriber with a simple .cab file for example here:
http://www.4shared.com/file/25551333/d1146f29/Transcriber.html
This is the one for Crystalv4, but I've used it on other ROM as well.
As far as TomTom goes, I don't think that will work. It may with a old workaround App, I think it was called bluetooth to hands-free or something, just try searching with similar terms. The problem is that this app will re-route all audio from prophet main speaker to bluetooth hands-free protocol, which also means mono, not stereo.
Hope that helped.
Here ya go, try this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=278778&highlight=audio+to+handsfree
Thank you for the awnsers.
I can pass all my pda sound to the hands free kit, but i want to pass only the tomtom instructions so i can hear music on my radio and when tomtom gives me an instruction the music stops and gives me the instruction and then continues playing the music.I want this because if i pass all the sound of my pda i cant hear music and if i listen to the instructions on the pda i cant hear them because i listen to music very high.
So if someone knows how to do this, please say me something.
Sounds like you want some software for your car, and something to discriminate between TomTom sounds and other windows sounds on the device side...

Have you tried this? What other sound is comming from your pda when you're using TT??? I only had it installed once, but as I remember, it will only send if audio is present i.e. when tomtom says 'Turn left in 100 meters'. I'm not sure, since I haven't used it in about a year. Also, it's setup like that to save on battery drain. After all, it would be stupid to send 'silence' now wouldn't it!
The programs i tested does the same as my hands free.
I will describe more how does my kit works.
When i connect my car radio hands free kit to my pda ,i have 2 options make my kit an hands free or a wireless stereo.
When i choose the first i can hear music from radio stations or for cd normally and when i receive a call it stops playing and forwards the sound of the call to my radio.
The second option forwards all the pda sounds to a special menu in my radio (BT Music), that allows me to hear music from my pda but doesnt allow me to hear radio stations and cds.
Basically i want to make my tomtom instructions like 'Turn left' like a phone call so i can hear music and hear tomtom.
I tried many BT programs that forwards the sounds to BT Kits, but none of them works has i want.
This uses Hands-free Protocol...
This should do exactly what you want. It makes the stereo output of your device recievable for a hands-free set using hands-free protocol. Try it before you abandon it. I'm not garranting anything, but it's worth a try isn't it? I mean a lot of people in this forum wouldn't care, and say 'Read the wiki' so try it, and then say it doesn't work. It is actually a really old work-around for devices that don't support a2dp, so that people can still listen to music over a regular headset.
Sorry, the first link I sent is apparently something else,but may still work. What I was actually talking about was this little app.
http://www.clubic.com/telecharger-fiche35703-btaudio-toggle.html
whilst most of my replies are 'read the wiki' theres nothing like this on there, and its worth a try. if it works, write something about it on the wiki to help others!
OK i will test it and i will give news
Need Software to Test.
Ok so i tried this app and my conclusion is...nothing.
I downloaded it and installed it (copy the 3 files to the storage card), and tried to execute, but nothing gives me an error like 'Failed to enable BT audio'.
I tried to enable and disable bluetooth, but nothing..
So if anyone has more software so i can test it and post like a review of my experience with that software
Edited:
I started a new thread about software review and testing if you have anything to test or to give to know please go to here
