Hi guys, is there anywhere a small fm transmitter with mini usb so can be attached and powered directly from TC.Some range of Sony Ericson phones are offering some for their devices.
It would be very nice if we have something like that.
No luck searching the net

To be honest, I don't think there is such a thing as a decent FM transmitter. Why would you want to limit your entire music library to FM quality at best? There are so many better options out there from Stereo Bluetooth A2DP to direct line in options. But if you must go for imo poor sounding FM, maybe the Motorola T505 (it uses an A2dp connection to the phone and an fm connection to the radio and has a built in rechargeable battery).

Here are some others. Parrot and Venturi offer similar solutions. Ego has some high end (non-FM) models.

Well, I don't know but I am not realy aiming to get the perfect sound out from my car stereo.I ve got a cheap transmitter which works just fine, but you still have to connect cables and chargers and it is mess in the car.
Of course there are so many better ways to connect via bluetooth,or change your car stereo with a b/t compatable and so on, but I don't want to spend £100-£200 just to listen music in my car.
Regards
Not sure if it's available in the UK yet, but I'm very pleased with my Venturi, http://www.myventuri.com/
Looks cool, A2DP-in, line-in, line-out, FM-out, charges HTC via mini-USB, shows song titles via RDS (depends on media player support) and has a surprisingly good sound quality through FM. Maybe a bit too much bass boost but I like it. The only disadvantages for me are (a) that it powers off instantly when the cig-lighter power drops (and doesn't reconnect automatically but there are WM tools to help with that) and (b) it fakes the Travel Pilot signal so the radio won't change to the 'real' FM TP when broadcasted.
It's maybe not the cheapest option (~100€) but it's something I can definetely recommend.
Yes I ve seen those kits as well, and they are available in UK.I was just thinkig-first you connect via bluetooth and then the device sends it through FM so whats the point?
So having just FM transmitter like this one will be ideal...

Maybe soon in China they will make one

I would like to buy ventury mini, but i have a question about handsfree function: I have a touch cruise (it is not in list at ventury webpages, but i hope it is supported too) and in every HTC phones it has not Phonebook use. So my question is, if I would like make a call, so I stop the music on the phone and press the call button on ventury and ON MY PHONE select contact and call. An incoming call just pick up by ventury mini green phone icon. Is that true? Or it is not possible to use it like handsfree with touch cruise because is not supported Phonebook use.
What is correct. Thank you
Not sure if I understand you 100%. But the Venturi works fine with the Touch Cruise (I have one too).
It does not support the phonebook, but that is no problem - you just make the calls with the phone, not the Venturi. Just use the phone as you normally do (start call / accept call / hang up etc) and the Venturi will act as your "remote microphone" and connection to the car speakers (via radio) if you know what I mean. There is no need to touch any key on the Venturi if you don't want to.
How about this one?
Any opinions?
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/New-FM-Transm...oryZ3728QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
Dear all I confirm: Venturi mini and Touch Cruise works just fine. In Italy it is quite difficult to find free FM frequencies, but once you find one the quality is good indeed. And also the microphone works good.

Guys,
I've been so busy at work this week, you wouldn't believe. I'm beginning to get the shakes from lack of coding, but a few guys were asking for something similar to a tool I knocked up for my own use. I thought I'd release it anyway, subject to future improvements. Due to lack of time it's a little rough around the edges (very brief status messages, no interface, command line only), but it generally works, I hope

It currently supports the following command line options:
Bluetooth Control:
-blueon Enable bluetooth
-blueoff Disable bluetooth
-bluetoggle Toggle bluetooth
-bluediscoveron Make bluetooth discoverable
Audio Gateway Control:
-agon Enable audio gateway Audio Channel
-agoff Disable audio gateway Audio Channel
-agcon Enable audio gateway Control Channel
-agcoff Disable audio gateway Control Channel
WiFi Control: (WM5 Only)
-wifion Enable WiFi
-wifioff Disable WiFi
-wifitoggle Toggle WiFi
Infra Red Control:
-iron Enable Infra Red "receive beams"
-iroff Disable Infra Red "receive beams"
-irtoggle Toggle "receive beams"
Status:
-status Display Status messages
Command lines can be combined, so you can toggle wifi and bluetooth at the same time etc.
-AGON can be used to pass audio from some WM5 devices to a paired bluetooth headset, so hopefully you can listen to music etc over your headset without too much voodoo. This code is not widely tested (ie I lack hardware and time), but please email or report in my forum if you have success or failures, and which hardware and software it worked with.
Please note - I'm not sure what success you will have in transferring audio over, and whether or not it works on WM2003. The Magician at least lacks the hardware/software support for you to listen to music in this way, but on the Universal etc, it should permit this.
I intend to add a few more comms controls over time.
EDIT: I forgot to add, this only works on the out-of-the-box Microsoft Bluetooth stack at this stage. I may investigate other stacks later, but not right now
Guys, when you're discussing you're experiences with Bluetooth and AGON, I think it will be helpful to indicate:
1. Phone you're using
2. Type of headset
3. Command line used (eg AGON)
4. Whether you're using Voice Command
5. What your experience is (it worked, worked when you pressed bluetooth dial button, doesn't work etc)
Sorry for sounding like your mother, but I developed VJVolubilis for my own research because of my difficulties trying to use Voice Command on the Universal. This information would be helpful to try to pinpoint why Voice Command works properly for some people through the Bluetooth headset, and not for others.
Version Info:
v0.1
06.02.2006
- Initial Release
v0.2
08.02.2006
- Tidier status info
- Wizard Wifi Support (I hope!)
Ok, check it out on my webpage here.

818pro (HTC Prophet) is not working.
VJ: Sorry for the delay...I first had to figure out.. the command line thing
sorry...lol..
so i did install gs finder and i edited the shortcut (which software does allow hold and tap? at least gs finder didn't on my universal)
now i am still not sure if i did it correctly, but: if i hit on any app or entry in gsfinder including your app, nothing happens.
but if i hit on the edited shortcut (still within gsfinder, I have not figured out how to go further, and actually what does the TQ function do...?), ao if i hit the -agon edited shortcut, it will bring up the voicecontrol panel...so obviously i did something not too wrong..so while the voicecontrol is on, i will be connected to the bt headset, but once it goes away i am losing it. so same is i would be pressing the button of my headset....
@vijay555: You were aware that feature requests would come up, weren't you?
Well, I use different BT stacks on the Magician and I'd favour one short cut for enabling BT regardless the BT stack.
Hi Vijay,
I'm not sure if te fault was caused by me being a noob in this.. I tried to use the -AGON command on my Exec and realise that if I transfer the audio to the BT headset,it will activate the voice command and then transfer the audio back to the Exec speaker instead of the BT headset.
Btw ...it's a great sw bro!Yada man
Chatty: I've never used any other stack, and have amended the above post to indicate it's MS stack only for now, but send me over your stack and I'll look into it if I can.
argh2000: this is strange. I went home at lunch to test it and it works as described for me.
Basically, start bluetooth and pair, use the -agon command line and it will open the Audio Gateway, transferring all sound (eg TCPMP) to the headset.
Now, a strange side effect I found on my universal is that opening the gateway automatically starts Voice Command etc if you have the appropriate software installed. This may or may not be beneficial, but is certainly not built into VJVolubilis.
Now, my experience with transferring sound via the Audio Gateway may be a non-intentional bug. Voice Command doesn't work properly for me, on my universal pressing the VC button starts VC, but then doesn't close the gateway after it's finished recognising, so basically I can't restart VC, but I can listen to music through my headset. So for me, the Gateway stays open and all sound is transferred to my headset (a donated Sony SBH-35)
Removing the Voice Command shortcut from your startup folder may help to keep the gateway open for you so you can listen to music etc, but is probably going to have other sideeffects for VC. However, it may not!
Your experience with the agon option will vary, particularly since this tool was written specifically to aid in my battle with VC, documented in this thread.
I'll try to update the cab shortly with some shortcuts for example usage when I get a little time. But for now, it's for confident users only
V
@vijay555: I use this stack for PAN profile (surf and VoIP) and might use this stack for my yet-to-buy A2DP headset (listening to MP3) in the near future.
And I use all 3 stacks (3rd being the original MS stack) for navigation (GPS via SPP).
Chatty, are you stable with that many stacks?
I'm worried to upset my lovely little Magician with a new stack, but I'll try to investigate the bluesoleil at some point. A2DP - I've got nothing to test it on. Someone want to send me a stereo headset
I'll try to look into it.
V
@vijay555: As of now, there are only 2 installed. Except the different handling of each stack and the needed soft-reset for a switch I have nothing to complain about.
Unfortunately this project never came up with any solutions.
Do you know if their code is available? I've got some info on bluetooth profiles etc, and wouldn't mind looking into it. But later.
PM me if you want, but can you tell me what process you're using to switch between stacks? It might be possible to come up with an elegant switcher as well.
V
i couldnt get it working, i have tried all commands but it seems progrom does not pick them up, even for status
my phone is wizard wm5
any one had success?
nolovelust: I'll prepare some shortcuts hopefully tonight and pack them up.
What hardware are you using?

Hello Vijay,
VJVolubilis tested on QTEK 9100 (SPV M3000) WM5 :
-bluetoggle : works fine
-status doesn't works
none of the -wifi commands work
I'm wainting for the -wifitoggle command as I've never reached any software to do it.
Guys, I've reuploaded the cab, hopefully with some example shortcuts in there. Please test wifi etc on WM5 Universals. These shortcuts work on both my Magician and Universal.
Please note, they target the \program files\ folder.
If you have a non English OS, you will have to rename them.
V
Vijay I am so anxious about this software of yours. It maybe the answer for the people waiting for developments on the BT Stack for the Magician.
O.T. Vijay, if you plan to take a vacation here in Dubai, let me know. I want to personally treat you out for the work you have done for the community.
Mvmajorem I was watching a documentary yesteday about The Palm, and The World. For an invitation to Dubai, I'd quit my job right now!
Has anyone tried the new shortcuts? I'm curious that no one's had any success. The wifi toggle feature uses the same functionality as the Wireless Manager on the Universal, and tested on my Universal, it does work. I wonder if I'm doing something you guys aren't!

Compatibel list :
1. Nokia HS-36 W
2. Logitech® Mobile Freedom™ Headset (Thx to samsongam)
3. i.Tech Clip IIe (Thx to aqua)
4. Nokia HS-12W (Thx to talbot.martyn)
Desperate because having problem with Motorola H700 static, and now become display in my room. I try to find which one is good enough for my XDA IIs
My O2 XDA IIs Spec :
WM2003SE
Rom : 1.40.00 WWE
Radio :1.15.00
ExtRom :1.40.923 WWE
Bluetooth Stack : Broadcom v.1 build 3900
Additional information :
1. Extended Rom already modify by deleting foreign provider cab file and replace with usefull programs for auto install if someday got hardreset accident
2. Already install a2dp profile and audigw.dll versi 1.33 for 2 additional new menu to pairing "High Quality Audio setup and Connect to a keyboard".
3. Service Handsfree I only check box the enable service, neither Authorization, Authentication.
testing result for :
1. Jabra BT150
2. Jabra BT330
3. Motorola H500
4. Motorola HS850
5. Nokia BH-700
6. Nokia HS-36W
7. V3 (I don't know the manufacture)
Jabra BT150, Motorola HS850, Nokia BH-700 dan V3 still have problem with static from bothside experience (caller and receiver).
And the rest Jabra BT330, Motorola H500, Nokia HS-36W have no experience with static but the most good enough but still not perfect for me is Nokia HS-36W. So i bought it.
I not yet try a2dp and voice dial feature, because i don't have voice dial program.
*Update August 17,2006*
Ehm, already try trick to pairing the Nokia HS-36W for the second times as High Quality Audio setup, but XDA IIs can't find it. That's mean Nokia HS-36W doesn't support a2dp.
Hope this usefull for others

from personal experience
Got a working bluetooth handsfree for my XDA IIs, at last....
I Tech Clip II mini... I am very confident that all I Tech Clip will work since they all use the same technology....
I was actually looking for Logitech mobile freedom, but couldnt find it, they give me the newer version, which is Logitech Mobile Traveller... not good... same story with Motorola H700....
So far I have tried Motorola H700, Jabra BT110, Jabra BT250, Logitech Mobile Traveller... all give static if distance is more than 30 cm......
Tried I Tech Clip, no static at all until distance is about > 2 m .. (i know BT Handsfree should work up to 10 m dist, but not with IIs - IIs has very crappy bluetooth hw/sf cause it is very difficult to pair with other hadsfree).
This is from my personal experience, and I am very happy now I can use bluetooth handsfree without static. My friend actually told me that the sound is v clear, and v loud too... Bought it for 170 Ringgit Malay when on holiday last week - get normal charger, usb charger, car charger - pretty cheap and good....
Just for you info, I am using WM5 (Helmi's) with latest bluetooth 3900 and 1.15 radio. I use keylock and big mike's fix for the bluetooth issue. It works for me, and I dont have to worry about accidentally pressing the screen when IIs turns on by it self caused by big mikes fix.
Cheers
hi all
i have a bt headset (HP)
after i paired it with my hermes, the only way to connect to them is going to comm manager-bluetooth settings-devices, click the bt-headset icon and choose "set as wireless stereo". is there a simpler way to do this? (much like the regular headset ised for phone calls, which connects automatically after the first pair)
thanks

after you set up a "pairing" ... when your pda's bluetooth is on, turn on your headset ... and then press the "answer" button, just once and it will sync in a few seconds.
This is how it works on my Motorola stereo headset.
works, thanks!
Gear4 BluePhones
I have the same problem as the topic starter, but I have a different headphone I have the Gear4 BluPhones.
I've tried the same, pressing the answer button after I turn the headphones on but that does not do the trick.
I run Black 4.0 WM6 on my Hermes..
Htc Bh S100
I have the same problem with my HTC BT Headset.
The Wireless Stereo connects automatically, but the Hands Free has to be refreshed each time a new connection is made .
My Nokia HS-12W connects flawlessly.
Therefore it just depends on the hardware design IMHO.

I had the same problem as simonk12. After reading the post from margatenj I thought if hitting answer would trigger a device to setup hands-free, perhaps using one of the music controls would trigger wireless stereo. On my Sony DR-BT30Q headset, if I turn on the headset, it connects straight away as hands-free, if I then hit play on the headset control, it connects as wireless stereo and the icon appears.
Running FuN_KeY_s_ROM_WWE_1.2.0 if that helps.
Jez.
SWEET!!!
I've confirmed this also works with my Sony MEX-BT2500 Bluetooth Car Stereo. I was seeing the same thing happen. My Handsfree was connecting as soon as I started the car, but the A2DP I had to go to the bluetooth settings and re-set the stereo as my Wireless Stereo.
tabashir was right in my case, I had to press the Play/Pause button to invoke the A2DP to reconnect.
Thanks a bunch for this answer, I've been driving myself crazy about this!
I have the Pioneer DEH-P9800BT Bluetooth Head Unit in my car, which supports stereo BT music streaming from any A2DP device.
I also have the HTC TyTN II Mobile which supports the same.
I have paired the two devices, and on the initial pairing successfully played music from the HTC through the Pioneer. When that worked, the BT Audio icon appears in the title bar of the mobile (headphones with a musical note in the middle).
However, after switching off the car and later returning, I have issues:
It is impossible to reconnect the BT stereo music playback, unless I delete the Pioneer device from the list of BT devices within the mobile phone, then pair them again. Nothing else seems to work. Simply, I just want all music to be routed through the Pioneer whenever it is in range of the mobile.
Are you able to solve either problem?
Same problem
My Dopod 838Pro and my Nokia a2dp headset work fine when they are initially paired, but the only way to make them work together after disconnecting either unit, is to delete the pairing and set up the pairing all over again as above.
A further issue for me is that my headphones work fine for outgoing calls, but incoming calls are routed to my handset speaker.
I have had the Nokia BT a2dp headset now for three days and am at a loss after much experimenting with all of the suggessions earlier in this thread.
I am a new memebr and would be so greateful for any advice. Apologies if this is a problem covered elsewhere.
I am about to make you very happy...
The default solution is to go into your Bluetooth settings page on the music device where you see the Pioneer BT Unit, and (on Windows Mobile 6) hold the stylus down ('right-click') then 'Set as Wireless Stereo', when you get in the car. It should now connect back to the stereo. That is a pain though an many screen-taps.
The other solution I found is to download freeware program A2DPToggle, which provides a one-click function for this on the WM6 home screen

You have made me very happy.
I do not mind all the screen taps, I am just so relieved that my headset finally works, both with music and sending calls.
One further question: My BT headset is now fine for music and ordinary calls but it still will not do activate when I am talking on my SIP application (Fring). Has anyone sorted this one out yet? Thanks again.
Best regards!!

Thanks for finding that! Just installed a brand new Kenwood KDC-BT838U and had this problem. A2DP Toggle was great but there was one feature I wanted that it didnt have. With command line options you could turn a2dp on or off, but there was no toggle option. So I wrote another one, A2DPSwitch. Description here:

BT to laptop
Hello,
i have an issue with the BT connection to laptop using active sync.
when i establish a connection to the laptop first time, all is ok,
but... the HTC HD2 BT not connect automatically to the laptop when i go and back close....then i need to establish connection again. how can i tell the BT to connect automatically to the laptop every time?
thanks.
I have just found out this small app and it seems great for me. Maybe it is too late to ask this favour, could you please do another executable that toggles bluetooth on and a2dp on, and in second press toggles both off?.
Your current executable works great for me, but I have to turn BT on previosly, it would be great if the executable could do both things.
Best regards and thank you very much for this great idea.

Hello all. I have recently bought an HD2, and I have tried this BT trick I prepare for the diamond, but doesn´t work in HD2, Anyone Knows something similar for the HD2, to enable A2DP automatically without having to enter BT config screen?
I have tried enabling BT first in the HD2, then turning on the headset, and pressing play, but it connects with hansd free profile, snif....
Best regards and thank you in advance.
Also on my Desire with Philips SHB6102.
Headset is paired correctly.
This Headset used phone and media profile but i use only media.
When i switch off phone profile in the options of the headset it doesn't auto-connect with media profile only!
Any tip?
Hi!
Got a little question I hope someone here can help me with.
Is there a way to connect the mediaplayer in Cruise to the caraudiosystem with Bluetooth?
I got a NissanQashqai with BT handsfree and it works great in general (there are some complaints in microphonequality though...)
I had hoped it should be possible to play music from the cruise via the BT connection aswell, but sofar no sucess.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Pair it and then use BTAudio (if needed)
You should check the pairing guidelines of your car with a bluetooth enabled device. Follow those steps and you should be able to pair your cruise with the bluetooth of the car. Ofcourse, you'll have to make your device discoverable. Also, If you experience that all audio is not being transferred to your paired device (your car), use a utility like BTAudio on your cruise. Hope this helps.
Music is only supported through car systems with the A2DP profile. You need to check car's manual to make sure it actually supports A2DP. However, the majority of oem systems don't support this and only a few aftermarket systems do. Besides going aftermarket, as reccomended by the above poster, BTAudio can provide a makeshift fix, however the music quality will be poor as it will be at best telephone quality (liken it to listening to music through a phone call).
Aftermarket is truly the best way to go if you want wireless. Here are a few pics of my io Play setup which supports the handsfree and headset profies (HSF/HSP) as well as the stereo music and remote control profiles (A2DP/AVCRP).

12V FM transmitter with USB connection to Cruise
As I have checked around and tried to get a easy solution for connection via BT, I now beleve there are none. The car is simply not fitted with so advanced BT system, too bad. It would be so simple and neat if it worked...
Anyway, lurking around and reading all about FM-transmitters instead, but not really finding a good product here either.
It would be nice with a 12V FM transmitter, fitted with an USB connection, where the crusie will get powersupply and identyfies the FM transmitter as a wired headset.
I bought one model to try it out, http://www.clasohlson.se/Product/Product.aspx?id=16990147
but had no sucess, it charges ok, but it does not see the charger as a headset and sends out the sound. The transmitter needs to see the Cruise as a USB-memorystick, and controls the USB-stick with stop/play/fwd/bwd.
Anyway, tried the WM5 storage 1.73, but it does not seem to work...
Any ideas of a better product or a solution?

MyVenturi is pretty good -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=387247
And personally I'm also happy with my Jabra 3030 (A2DP) although it does not charge up the Polaris.
Before I go any further I want to explicitly express that I only have made this small release to make my own life a little bit more comfortable. I make this remark because I do not want to offend the developer of the basic component of my release in any way.
My release relies completely of the functionality that Vijay555 built into his VJVolubilis release. This great piece of software (that has much more features than I use) can be found here: http://www.vijay555.com/?Releases:VJVolubilis
===========================================================
As I have a Bluetooth carkit with a reasonable sound quality, I wanted to use this carkit to play podcasts over my car speakers. VJvolubilis is very well capable of toggling the BT Audio gateway, so the functionaliuty is available (see link above). But I wanted this functionality to be better accessible when driving.
So I created:
- A Icon resource with a Green and a Red BT icon
- 2 shortcuts that send the agon/agoff parameter to VJVolubilis in order to switch on of off the BT Audio gateway and that make use of the customized BT icons
Having it all (together with the VJVolubilis executable) in a single installer cab gives me just what i wanted. The shortcuts are placed in a Start menu programs group "BT Audio" (please note the custom icons apparently will only be visible in the start menu after a soft reset).
I have put the two shortcuts on my Sense shortcuts (in Sense the custom icons are visible right after intall !), so i can now switch the BT Audio gateway on and off quite easy (ie when driving).
I use this on WM6.5 and Sense 2.1 on my MDA Vario IV / HTC Touch Pro
One more remark on the credits: This release relies hugely on the work that Vijay555 put into VJVolubilis

Absolutely!
I don't know if VJVolubilis still works as well as it should as I haven't looked at it for quite some time, but the code I used should work on all Microsoft Bluetooth stack phones, so absolutely, be my guest

Well VJVolubilis has been working on WM5 and WM6.x for me to toggle the BT Audio Gateway. So you did quite a good job back in 2006!!
I tried this on my tilt2 with EnergyRom and on clicking BT Audio On does nothing. When I turn on bluetooth it's connecting as heatset, but for stereo , it's connecting when I select stereo audio from communication manager/ bluetooth. But with this cab file installed nothing happens. It's really difficult to go to settings every time connecting to audio.
I am not sure if Rhodium has Microsoft stack or not. Does it only work with Microsoft stack?

Depends on which ROM you got

This app will NOT use the Stereo capabilities of the phone.
It just opens the BT Audio gateway that normally is used for telephone calls via Bluetooth. This way you can use any ordinary BT carkit (or headset) to e.g. listen to podcasts.
The quality is reasonable. Also, after any phone call coming in you will have to re-open the gateway (as the phone app closes it alfter ending the call).
