Hello all. This is my first time posting a new thread although I've been lurking around here for a while soaking up all the information from this wonderful site. That said, I have been researching my problem for days now both here and on google and have found no solutions that work. So I'll see if there's anyone here who can help. Here goes....
I have recently flashed DCD's 3.2.6 ROM on my Verizon XV6800 and it works great (love the aGPS too, Thanks GC14) in every area but my car. I have a 2004 Audi A4 with the RNS-E Nav system with integrated bluetooth. Before I flashed to DCD, I had the original stock ROM (2.09.605.8 with Radio 1.30.00) which gave me full functionality with Jetware Mobile (Phonebook and Recent, Received & Missed Calls all transferred). Now, with DCD, it'll only connect to the car and won't transfer anything. If I try to load Jetware, it'll just lock up my phone while I'm connected to the car. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
No one else has this problem or a fix for it?

I wish I was rich enough to afford such a car, then I could maybe help you out. LOL
But I would gladly accept such a car as payment for figuring out your problem.
Nevermind that the car is an Audi. Does anyone else have this problem with a factory BT system that transfers the phonebook to their car.
I had this same issue on my X3 and it seemed to be the way the PPC wanted to transfer the phonebook was by using some file transfer protocol the car did not understand. I could sync it and make and receive calls but no phonebook. Took it to the sprint store and we tried a blackberry and a standard moto handset. The blackberry did not sync the phonebook either but the standard moto phone did. I don’t think it’s possible based on the profiles in the car so I gave up on the phonebook. Try changing the bluetooth stack in the rom, you will have have to make your own rom and beware of the stack you use to make sure it is one for your phone.
I flashed DCD's rom using the kitchen, so making a custom rom from there is no problem to me. What I'm not sure of is how to change the bluetooth stack. I thought it is part of the hard coding for the OS? If you or someone else reading this thread has any information on this or can point me to some info on this it would be greatly appreciated.
I have the 6800 with DCD 3.2.6, and an Audi, with full phonebook transfer so I'll try to help you out:
1. Which 6800 radio are you using? I have found 3.42.50 to be the best as far as Audi bluetooth compatibility is concerned.
2. Jetware will not work with WM 6.1 on the 6800, but you don't need it, since 6.1 included phonebook transfer enhancements.
3. What version of Audi software are you at? There have been several releases since your year. You should be able to get more info from www.navplus.us and of course from your stealer.
4. You do have your bluetooth settings set for "discoverable", right? And, (I don't know why this is the case) it seems when OBEX is on, the phonebook and other items transfer quicker.
If you have the 6800 radio and Audi software updated, you should have no problem. Jetware is no longer necessary.
1. I am using radio ROM 3.42.50
2. The reason I loaded Jetware is to have it sort my contacts by Last,
First. Is there another way to do this?
3. I am running sw0200 on my RNS-E, but was considering moving up to
sw0260.
4. I haven't tried this, but I will.
Lately I've also had the issue where if the phone is connected to the car for a while, the bluetooth on the phone will shut itself off and not turn back on until I do it manually. I'm beginning to wonder if I should just hard reset and start from scratch. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
I'm sure there's a reg tweak for listing First name first in contacts. Hunt around here or at ppcgeeks. If you want to stay on 6.1 jetware will not work (unless they release a new version).
Definitely update the Audi software to the newest version.
DCD has done nicely fixing power settings in the last few ROMS to solve the bluetooth shutting off issue, although when memory gets very low, it may still happen. You must have some other program or process running that sucks up memory if you are still experiencing this.
It never hurts to hard reset, as long as you have the time.
So, I've updated to SW0260 and done a hard reset and I'm still experiencing problems. Do you have any more suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I'm running an after market HU (Pioneer AVH-P4000DVD) and DCD's latest ROM, and Jetware works fine on mine. Just re-transfered my phone book earlier today....

I have upgraded to the new O2 Rom 169 and all seemed ok, until I started to install my bluetooth head set.
Since I upgraded my radio ROM to 1.03 I have lost the connections to my headset.
Prior to the upgrade it worked perfectly, now the recieve functions just will not work.
I have down graded to the radio 1.00 ROM but the same thing is happening. So the upgrade seems to have corrupted something more important.
Can anyone help here?
Downgrade to previous ROM
I have now downgraded to the previous ROM 1.11.162WWE, and that seems to have solved the problem.
I have installed the Radio ROM update and that seems to work OK now, so I will stick to this for the moment, unless someone has any better ideas!
Hello,
I had the same problem. It seems, the old bluetooth software won't work with the new radio rom. I tried my bluetooth connection before restoring my old stuff from backup, and it's ok. I didn't have any serious things in my backup, so I reinstalled my software from install cd's - sorry, I had no time to figure out, wich software causes this issue, but hope this information will help you.
Z.
i also having problem with my bluetooth but I cant say the problem is from new radio ROM or others because i dont know the real cause. A message display and wrote
"Sorry! Bluetooth can no longer be used because the licence is expired"
"BDA ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff: Key:E3E534E19B3E8214C543A73C0A8B9A9074DD3B1753515CD8"
after that, bluetooth will off automatically.
I have found since the upgrade to the new radio, thanks PUG.
That my Handsfree and Headset Bluetooth issues have lessened.
A few little glitches but will be on the outlook for another patch or upgrade in the future :roll:
Hmm,
I have radio 1.00.00 version with t he original Asia ROM and something funny has happened:
Since the beginning, I successfully connected to Logitech and Hello II BlueT headsets + a generic car BT handsfree.
I had to perform a hard reset after one of my progs messed the registry and reinstall everything (less the troublesome prog <g>).
Since then, the BlueT handsfree does not work properly: I hear the ring but there is no volume control from the headset and I hear nothing + mike does not work. The rest of the BT conections work flawlessly, except for some rare disconnects from my BlueT RBT-2001 GPS.
The story in this thread is not encouraging but one thing is clear - the BT problems that I have are with the original radio and EROM and not after an upgrade. I have no clue what all this means except for the fact that tere is something quite problematic w/ the Xda IIi BT connectivity that I didn't have w/ any of my previous PDAs.
I thought to u/g the radio version only but decided to go for a full u/g (less the O2 stuff), hoping that my BT problems will go away.
Please correct me if I'm wrong - should I go ahead with the PUG O2-less upgrade or should I keep the old (but clearly buggy) versions?
Maybe all the problems that we have are connected to specific manufacturing HTC batches? Has anyone researched this? Is there any info correlating between problems and Xda IIi serial numbers?
Best regrads,
Al
Is anyone else finding that their bluetooth is really slow at sending and receiving items. Also that there is no way to send items direct to a contact that is in your partnership list, you have to search for them every time you want to send something. If someone has found ways around these problems, please let me know.
an adaption of the Blue angel's bluetooth interface would be lovely. It had loads of options, and let you explore remote devices. This is just like the XDA2.
Would it be possible to port the BA software onto the wizard? I think it uses a different BT stack.
they were able to port the wizards rom to run on a blue angel. I guess they should be able to use the blue angels bluetooth on a wizard.
Please help - is so annoying
Ok, after a little research i found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33532 .It has an app which i installed and has helped a little. I can now send images direct to people i have paired with without having to search local bluetooth first. The thing is it only sends images to paired people. I want it to also send sound and video files. When in file explorer, holding down on an image brings up the extra option of "Send image via bluetooth" which then allows to send by the already paired devices. When doing the same on videos and sound, it doesnt give this option. Maybe this can be done in the registry, but i dont know alot about that so maybe someone could help?
i tried this on my kjam and i had a problem with it, so i uninstalled it.
the problem i had is that the bt keep switching off by itself with no reason, even if i was already syncing over bt, the connection is lost suddenly and i found out that the bt is off (even though the bt icon on the system tray shows its still on).
i don't know about you guys, but i had this prob twice, i reinstalled it again and gave me the same prob.
i can live without it.
Ok, maybe that stack is not all that great. After soft reset lost all sound, and BT does not work properly. Uninstalled and back to normal. So again is there any way to send to people in your paired list without having to search for them every time. Is becoming a pain coz some new phones turn off discoverable after 60 seconds. So they have to keep turning theirs back on. Its a simple option, dont know why they didnt put this in. Any help?
I haven't seen more than 50-60KBps. Has anyone else seen higher transfer rates?
Wizard's BT is useless. Buggy, slow and poor.
And it is not v2.0, it is v1.2
It does not have EDR.
It doesn't even have PAN ffs... :x

Info about BT in wizard. Directly from BT CIG's site. The problem is not with the Wizard, it is in usin MS BT stack.
thanks for that emmeborn, if the problem is the stack, do you know of a stack upgrade which works good? I tried the stack form the blue angel, but stuffed up my phone, so uninstalled it.
actually, i just looked at those pdf files, and at the bottom where it has the revisions, seems they have launched a version around 1 month ago. Would this be a software or hardware update. If its software then i reckon this could solve alot of problems im having.

It is the long awaited rom update. A test version of that rom has already leaked. You can find more info in the Wizard upgrade forum topic about that version.
I am awaiting the localized swedish version of that rom and the latest about that version is that it should be released mid March.
Hi
I have a BMW X5 and a HTC HD2 with the newest ROM. When I enter the car, HD2 is recognised automatically by the car and I can place phonecalls dialing from my HD2. The only thing that does not work is that BMW tries to upload my phonebook from the phone but it does not get it. BMW says "please wait" - forever.
Before I flashed the ROM, this worked. Anyone has any ideas? I would even pay for someone in Zurich who comes and fixes this. One thing I could do of course is to downgrade my ROM again. But before I do this, I want to explore any other options.
Thanks a lot!
PS: jetwaremobile.com definately does NOT work on HD2
I have exactly the same issue. The HTC HD2 works ok for calls etc but the phone book upload is "please wait" forever. Very annoying. I have the standard up to date ROM and BMW X5 2009 model. Any help would be great.
Thanks

I have a 2008 BMW, and I did experience this the first time..I sat there waiting for a few mins adn then got bored...but after I had turned the car off, been away and come back..it transferred straightaway.
Funnily enough, when I had my iphone (yes..sorry) I had the little image of the phone next to the BT signal on the display. I don't get this straight away with the HD2, but it always eventually appears..and then stays there until I hard reset my phone and do a ROM upgrade and then start the pairing again..where I just get the BT signal...then randomly..a few weeks later, the phone image appears again....very odd
Works fine here with a BMW 5x from 2008.. Using miris 6.5.x ROM

Hi, I also have a 2008 BMW (E93) and I do see the phone logo. It also syncs about 250 of my >3000 contacts. With my TyTN2 I used "Jetware Mobile" to sync just one dedicated category. But that doesn't work anymore with MinMo 6.5

Which ROM do you use 1.66? or earlier? With my earlier ROM I had no problems, but since I upgraded to 1.66 (German), the phonebook does not transfer...
Bluetooth auto control problem
I can’t control my bluetooth (on/off) when using Inesoft phone profiles/controls; I have also tried other programs but no success(in another program the window of bluetooth was disabled); through all programs, I could control phone, WIFI, and gprs but not the Bluetooth. The only way to turn the Bluetooth on/ off is the Comm Manager (Manually); could anyone help please. Thanks

thank you, I am glad it worked for you...you must have a newer generation ULF than me then.
Is your phone HD2? mine is Toshiba TG01..I have managed to make it work 50/50 of the times, but I do not know WHAT CHANGES are between it working and not working...it is very frustating to know (and experience it working) that it can/should work, but not being able to
I have a new HTC Mini HD and have the same problems with my 2009 BMW 3. BT Headset function works just fine, but iDrive keeps trying to sync the telephone book, unsuccesfull. Instead, my phone's battery gets drained. Anyone any sollutions?
Unfortunately I don't have an answer for your question, but it sounds like it might have something to do with the bluetooth stack used for that ROM/Radio not being recognized by the car. Perhaps the layer that deals with data transfer is removed. Sorry I can't be of more help here.
What I can do to help is to offer a warning. I am a former BMW Client Advisor, and have been told many, many times by service technicians that using phones which are not specifically approved by BMW can affect your car's ECU (brain) and if it needs to be repaired or replaced, it will not be covered under warranty. That could be just nonsense to force you into buying only phones which BMW has tested (or vendors have paid for a marketing fee), or it might be spot on, in which case you run a pretty big risk.
Hope this helps.
OK, problem solved. BMW updated my carsoftware to its newest version last week and now my HD2 works perfectly with my car (again). I can make calls AND my phonebook is synced as well.
Hint1: Try if your phonebook sync problem exists with the SIM contacts as well as with the phone contacts
Hint 2: worldwideweb.bmw.com/com/de/owners/navigation/bluetooth/compatibility_check_intro.html

Hi All,
I have a BMW X5 2005 model. I can pair the phone OK but it constantly disconnects and reconnects once the transfer of the phonebook occurs. The phonebook transfers always start from scratch when this happens and nothing gets loaded to the car's phonebook.
If a call comes in, or if I make a call while it is connected (like within 5 seconds) the phone stays connected for the duration of the call.
I have tried all the Regisrty tweaks and none change the behaviour.
I also read it is because the HD2 uses Widcomm BT stack and not the MS BT Stack.
Zippolly and a_petrov303 and all those that have it working, can you please tell me which Rom you are using? I am using the latest Energy's 6.5.x rom. i noticed someone mentioned Miri's 6.5.x Rom works.
Thanks,
Rob
I have a 07 E60. The HD2 pairs fine, synchs contacts fine, but the sound quality is so bad it's not useable. Of course bmw says it's not a compatible phone, but I think there is a problem with the car as my Diamond won't find it, even though it is supposed to be supported
its mainly due to the car bluetooth, BMW etc don't make the car kit mostly siemens do and they are slow on the uptake of doing updates.
anybody found a snap-in for the hd2 yet?
I have a 7-series F01 and it is really annoying to have to deal with that usb cable...

I had the BT problem too, deleting the profile and repairing the phone did the trick for me...
Have a Citroen Bluetooth car radio (Blaupunkt) and was using that with a WM6 device. Lots of problems until I loaded Jetware which made it rock solid. Dumped the WM phone - now using a Android HTC (Desire).
Very unreliable bluetooth on Eclair - never solid and directory (phonebook) always an issue. Just switched to Froyo (Leedroid) hoping it would fix the issue. No such luck - most of time connects (pairing works fine) but as soon as I allow access from the car radio to the phone (to read phonebook) things go south.
Was wondering if I'm alone in this or if there is a fix for it. Ideal would be to have Jetware on Android - one great feature it has is that it can limit the phonebook transfer to a specific category - which is much more usefull then pushing the entire 500+ entries to the car.
Any help appriciated.
thnx
Exactly the same problems with wildfire/2.1. Was hoping 2.2 would fix it! SORRY TO HEAR otherwise.
No solution found yet. htc unable to help on the phone either.
(JVC 811 head unit)
Very disappointing after perfect WM integration.
Guy
Have a colleague that had the same issue on his Audi.
If you DENY access to the phone book - it works fine (although it takes a while to fully sync, and the number of entries is still an issue)
+1 for Jetware on Android - reeaaaaallly need it..

Good morning fellow forum member. I've recently begun having some significant bluetooth connectivity issues with my continuum and Ford Sync system in my 2011 Fiesta. Now, before you start ranting about your loath for microsoft or Ford please hear me out. In theory, the Sync system, combined with bluetooth technology, is a great way to go hands free. It also allows for the coordination of the system and Pandora & Stitcher Radio on an Android phone.
Anyway, lately my bluetooth connection to my car has been causing FCs on my phone. They are the type of FCs that cause the "long-short-short-short" haptic feedback but doesn't throw a pop-up message describing the cause of the FC. So, when the feedback occurs the phone will sometimes lock up but it always disconnects the bluetooth. I don't use bluetooth in any other fashion so I can't be positive that it's not an issue with the car's bluettoth system.
With all of that said, is there an inherent issue with the bluetooth system on our phone? If so, is there a fix for this? I'm currently running the EC07-clean_new ROM. This was installed over the SCH-I400-EC07-FROYO-REL-PRODUCTION ROM. My broadband version iss:i400.0.6v.EC06, Kernel 2.6.32.9 and build SCH-I400.EC07.
Any help that you brilliant folks could offer would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Ray
I run bluetooth constantly (it's the only way I talk on my phone, driving or not.) I've never run into this issue. Have you recently downloaded any new apps? I found that there are some apps that simply don't play well with our phones. Especially radio based apps (I.E. the issues a lot of us were having with gps based apps, or gps losing it's lock, after a while. Wireless tether 3.06 beta completely screwed my phone up... etc). The only other thing I could suggest is to drop your phone from the sync, and reconnect it... I do this with all my bluetooth devices at least twice a week as a matter of course. And if you want to experiment to see if it's sync or your phone, assuming you have bluetooth stack on your computer, you could connect it to your phone. Other than that, maybe find a friend that has bluetooth and connect it?
Thanks for the suggestions. The most recent app I have installed that uses a radio is the new Stitcher, though I have been having some issues with "My Tracks" FCing but I think that is another issue. Anyway, prior to your reply I found an app on the market called "bluetooth fix repair" It's free and I gave it a shot. I've also deleted the phone from my car's list and repaired them. So far so good. I have a bluetooth stereo headset I'll have to try. I probably have too many apps to begin with. I'll see about deleting some of the ones I don't really need.
Thanks again,
Ray

I think you should be good with rourine disconnect/reconnect. Asfor too many apps, the only thing rhat matters there is storage space. Android wint let you run "too many" at once. Itll delete from ram as needed. I was just saying that certain apps dont seem to play well with others. But that is an android issue, not your phone in particular.
I'm not here for a long time. I'm here for a good time. To hell with the red wine. Pour me some moonshine. - King George
I'm totally stumped here. Yesterday I decided to reflash my phone. I figured any issues might be ironed out. It must be an app issue, although it is going to be a PIA to uninstall then reinstall each app and test the BT after each app install. I thought that it might be the trailblazer101 car cradle, desk cradle or the sticher apps that were giving me the problem but that doesn't seem to be the case. Maybe I'll try replacing the BT files with the ones from eclair to see if I end up with the same trouble. Any idea if that might cause more problems? Are the BT files android version specific?
Peace
EDIT: I've not swapped the BT files from eclair but I did spend an hour or so listening to Stitcher radio via a bluetooth headset. It doesn't seem to be a BT issue. More likely an issue with the connection to the Sync system itself. Connecting via bluetooth is no problem in the car. It's not until I attempt to engage a function other than the phone that an issue occurs. I may try to reflash the EC07-clean ROM and see if there was something with the EC07-Clean_new version that I've been running for the last few weeks.
OK, the BT issue seems to be corrected. I flashed adrenalyn's EC07-clean ROM and that seemed to do it. Something must have gotten corrupted. So, issue resolved...i guess.
