Any 6.5 ROMs with BT controls working? - Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development

I've looked through several of the 6.5 rom threads and flashed a few, but haven't found one where the BT headphone controls work. I know MS made changes in 6.5 (thanks B4PJ), but was wondering if any of the 6.5 chefs had overcome the problem. thanks for any tips!

are you talking about audio controls? like next/previous/play+pause?
If so, ive got mine working with the newest energy rom and mortplayer

That's exactly what I'm talking about. Mortscript, huh? Could you point me to a thread to learn more about how that works?

I'm using a Jabra 3030 stereo bt headset and it works great with arrup's ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=521007 . his even comes with a real nice interface s2p found in the multimedia folder that has built in support for bt. I'd try his out. Also Nrg's ROM seemed pretty nice I just think arrup's is a little more stable, but Nrg's is probably a little faster. hard to tell though. Nrg's is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=517296 . Both are really great chefs. and BT worked with both for me. definetly try arrup's first though if you're having BT trouble, like I said the S2P app. has support built in. it's basically a really nice skin for WMP, but seems to work a lot smoother, and actually allows what you were listening to when you turned it off to come back up.

Appreciate the assist - BT is working, I can hear music and make phone calls, etc. I just can pause/FF/RW music, or answer or hang up calls because the BT controls don't work... I think I'm headed back to 6.1.

Mortplayer. not mortscript. its a completely different audio program. i havent tested avcrp controls on any other program...

AVRCP doesn't work in the newest Manilla3D but it works in Coreplayer. It's not WM6.5

The problem lies with HTC's AudioMAnager not having been updated to the new WM6.5 API's. All WM6.5 ROMS with WMPlayer work fine with the AVRCP, and most other media players work off the WMPlayer API's. AudioManager by HTC is totally standalone and hence it does not work.

BT Controls work with ShEp's ROM as well. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=497699

That's what I mean. the controls all work on Arrup's ROM for me. pause/ff/rw/answer call. all work on arrup's 6.5, and most others from what I've seen and heard..

Right now dude, the WM6 unofficial ROMs do not have any support for the streaming audio, but on certain Bluetooth models, the MS$ Voice Command works well. You'll either have to wait for someone to actually make the right drivers to work with the WM6 ROM or go back to the official ROM.
so it should work on this Xda-Atom-ENG-20060426-MOT0822 rom. guess ill have to go back to the official rom..cant freakin drive and look up a contact on this thing. thanks.

[REF]Information for the ROM CHEFS out there.

Hello PPL,
i dont usually post in the forum but iv got some info for those cookers out there. Got my Touch pro yesterday, been playing around with it. Found some bits with the standard HTC rom Version 1.90.405.1 Radio 1.02.25.19
Wifi- Works fine but gets very warm at top of device (posible power usage problem,Radio)
Bluetooth A2DP- had to change bit rate from 44100 to 48000 (through Adv config)
FMRADIO- works fine but will not feed radio stations through bluetooth headset. Only to wired headset.
TF3D- can be sluggish.... hope you guys can speed things up out there.
Voice Call record-any chance of this in upcoming roms. have heard this is possible on device
Graphic equalizer- any chance this can be modified for Bluetooth Headset.
Landscape mode via shortcuts menu. runs without graphic acceleration. (use TOMTOM 6.030 in landscape. No option to change to this in tomtom program. screen refresh (2fps if lucky) very wiered whole phone slows down until return to home screen which then returns to portrait.
This device is a great platform for you guys to develop your roms on to. Cant wait to see some of your work in the next comming weeks. I hope some of this info is a help to you lot out there

A2DP only works on a bitrate of 48000 it doesnt support other
the fm radio probably uses the wired headset as antenna like the old sony phones. even if one gets it to work through bluetooth it would still be needing this wired headset to receive broadcasts
reply
i thought by having the wired headphones and connected the bluetooth that i would get the volume from radio through to bluetooth but still reroutes to wired.
in regards to A2DP. the playback quality from touch without adjusting value was pretty poor. especially at top range sounds. if A2DP only supports 48000 how comes there is an adjustment on SCHAPS ADV config to change bitrate to 44100.
I have a question, are the wired headphones any good?
Is it possiable for someone to extract the software for the fm radio? Curious to see if it works on the fuze...
....
Wired headphones not to bad to use, earphones dont stay in my ears one of those people with funny shapes ears.
Anyone do you think there will be a fix to the landscape issue because i use my tomtom alot for my job and i like the display in landscape.
cheers
Remember people, Raphael is still in the VERY early stages, loads of stuff should be fixed fairly rapidly, best part of having a PPC

probably the radio application not supporting it.
A2DP should work with 32000 , 44100 and 48000 , but i found out it only works well on 48000 with the blue soleil software i use on my pc.
further investigation showing that the device and rom support all bitrates.
most logitech a2dp devices work well on 44100 joint stereo mode. allmost all nokia a2dp devices use 32000 joint stereo. jabra uses 48000 stereo. sony uses 48000 stereo. the rest im not familiar with. older a2dp devices tend to work better at 32000 joint stereo mode.

I'm using SRS Wow HD in ELF, but will definitly give it a try on the Pro.
It works through BT.
And maybe then the BT trick that was tried with having the earplugs connected might work.
Attached you'll find the version i made the with the advanced settings.
As for Wifi what is the default setting in it's power mode?
suppose this works on a wizard also ?

I have a wizard but haven't tried it, been playing to much with my ELF
hehe i would too if i got one ^^
im still waiting for my touch pro to arrive
in the meanwhile i will give the srswow a shot and try it on a friends plain mda vario, since mine allready got the srswow thing.
i'll report back on that one.
We'll i'll be ordering mine on Friday morning so with luck it's in on Saturday.
Def the first thing to install and test can't live without it anymore.
Once your used to Sound enhancements and go back to regular you realise what your missing.
And i never tried the HTC equalizer as it did not support me ST-BT headset.
thanks will try WOWHD tomorrow. default power setting in wifi is best battery. HTC should really work on there software, hopefully there music player should get better with later rom versions. Now using windows media to play audio getting a much better sound quality.

Well it wasn't working over the headset it had no effect using the HTC Player.
But then switched to my BT headset and WMP and it's doing it's jiggy.
Also working on the build in speakers using WMP.
Looks like the HTC player is using it's own Audio Driver.
But with the ToiuchFlo3d config tool it gets even better.
I can't compare it to a previous diamond situation though.
For me that's an easy choice. WMP it is then. Gives me one less tab on the Home screen
I'll try the BT Sample rate tomorow.
Touchflo was doing fine barely glitches

Skype with windows 6.1

Has anyone found a Skype that works with windows 6.1 and DCD'd newest rom and radio releases?
I have tried 2.2.0.18... No luck It worked great on WM6 but once i put DCD's 3.2.5 on my phone it will not run.
So I tried the newest on on the Skype site 2.2.0.45 and it runs but no luck with sound.
This isnt critical as I use it only once in a while on my phone but it is a nice feature to be able to use.
Any input is greatly appreciated.
i found this same thing yesterday, i reflashed since i had to include voip in the kitchen. was able to get it running and make a call, but no dice on the sound.
im using skype 2.2.0.20 on DVD 3.2.0/radio 3.42.02 and it works, although i can only make calls with my BT headset

Is DCD 3.2.0 WM 6.1? If so, you're the first person I've heard of that's gotten it to work!
I tried my BT today and couldnt get it to work for me with the newest Skype release from Skype. I also tried it with FRING I can hear people but just cant talk to anyone.
Very frustrating. Its like Skype dolesnt recoginze the mic on the 6800

yeah, thats been the problem from the beginning, thats why i have the build of skype, its the only one i know of that works for calls (albeit only via BT)
http://xbehome.com/xda/SkypeMobilePPC_2.2.0.20.cab
There is a low CPU version of Skype that I had working on dcd 3.2.0 and earlier. The sound came through the speakerphone on the back of the phone. Since updating to newer dcd ROMS it doesn't work anymore. Look for a thread titled "voip on wifi" or something like that for the cab. But it only works on older dcd ROMS.
I just installed SkypeMobilePPC_2.2.0.20.cab on my Sprint PPC-6800 with 15 MB free, and running the PPCGeeks 20270 kitchen and the 3.42.40 radio.
After the install and a soft reset, when I try to start Skype, I get a Skype can not start popup.
Try finding a beta version. I use version 2.2.0.20. I would upload the version I'm using but it doesn't seem to work. The version I have also only goes through the speakerphone, but I usually pop on a headset bluetooth or through the bottom port and it works fine.
I just downloaded 2.2.0.45 (actually mislabeled as 2.2.0.38) from this Skype forum post http://forum.skype.com/lofiversion/index.php/t177281.html. It starts and I can hear the ring when I make the test call, but I couldn't hear anything from the other end. I could hear the hangup sound when I hung up though.

Quoted from the skype forum link on your post....

Go to the original post
This hsa been a problem with Skype for something like 9 months. It has something to do with the Mogul's chipset and a copyright issue. It used to work with old versions of Skype, but, as you observed, no longer, as you can no longer talk or hear.
Don't bother to ask Skype. They never answer this question forthrightly! Your best bet is to forget the issue and move on.
You are right, the "new" audio engine has something with the Mogul's chipset, the older GIPS audio engine worked but Skype can no longer distribute that audio engine. I have forwarded this issue, but I don't know if/when is going to get fixed. Logically the audio engine developer is also involved not just skype. //Quote

RADIO

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.

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.

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
Andreas
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.
