Anybody using the SE HBH-DS970 bluetooth headset with the Hermes and if so what is your experience?
Thanks
i use that one waht is your wonder?
I wanted to know if everything works fine and if you are happy with the experience (sound quality, responsiveness, etc.).
I tried it briefly at a store and everything seemed to work except when I received a call I could not hear the person talking. It may just be that I needed to do a soft reset but if I know it is working with the Tytn for someone else I will buy it.
Thanks!
No Good.
1. Sound Quality is very poor even with the A2DP hack. Far from my M600i. It's much better with the original usb headset. so I guess maybe Sony Ericsson has a different A2DP encoding implement or have some tricks on the media player?
2. Only the Call Key and Volume keys work. I don't know if there any PPC music player support DS970's music keys.
1. After registry twiks the sound quality is super.. seems even better than native usb headset.. Only one problem I couldn't solve so far.. it is skipping every 40-50 sec. I am using now original rom from o2 germany. I am going to try imate rom or at least new radio rom. Let see, if it helps
2. All keys are working with native Windows Media Player.
I am using it with PocketPlayer. Works fine with every button. Sound quality is super after the hack. But I got the same problem as SWayf, music got skippy every while...
Multipoint Function with PC Headset profile?
Has anyone tried to pair this headset with a Hermes and simultaneously with a PC that supports the bluetooth headset profile so that it is possible to switch from VoIP (eg Skype) and the mobile phone easily?
Following on my previous post, I now have the headset in hand and although I can connect to my PC and phone simultaneously using the multipoint functionality, the PC connection is only for music playback, ie the microphone is disabled, so I cannot use the headset for VoIP calls. The Bluetooth Service Class is listed as "Audio Sink" rather than "Headset". I don't suppose anyone knows of a way to activate the microphone in this mode?

Really regret buying it.. Tried the A2DP tweak with the Hermes Tweaker but no luck. Better soundquality but sound keeps skipping every 30-40 seconds, useless for listening to music... I would got nuts having to listen to those skips that often..
Anyone found any tweak to get rid of the skipping problem?
Buttons works fine for controlling Tytn audio quality is ok and I love the looks of it, if I just could get rid of that skipping..
How sick is this! I found this tip on another forum.
Try installing this taskmanager, start wmp and then the task manager, close any apps you don't need to use and then set it to monitor system load.
http://www.iaccarino.de/silvio/ppcstuff.htm
As long as it's running NO SKIPPING so far, have been listening to three full songs so far....
Which of you gurus can figure this one out??? So it must be possible to fix the problem by emulating what this software does??
Any updates on this?
Considering buying one, but wont if there's no fix to the skipping
I've just bought one of these headsets. God, the sound is atrocious. Can someone please fill me in on the hack that was mentioned earlier? I've got the Fit4cat ap on my Hermes but the sound is still rubbish even after adjusting the the "improve BT A2DP sound quality" setting to "excellent". Is this the hack that was referred to earlier or is there another I am not aware of??? Please, can anyone help with this. I feel I have wasted a serious amount of cash on this

Hi!
Got hermes and ds970 to work (almost) perfectly
I did this, step by step:
-Hard reset hermes (got o2 xda trion with latest htc wwe rom 1.35 radio 1.18)
-installed ms voice command 1.6
-installed beta version from jetware and their hermes fix
(all files can be found here http://www.jetwaremobile.com/beta.htm don't forget to soft-reset after installation of the "code signing certificate")
-installed a2dpfix
-get HTweakC and set a2dp quality to "medium" do not set it any higher, as the sound quality will be better on medium than on e.g. "excellent"
Configure Jetware Software to show CallerID etc...
Working:
-CallerID shows name!! AND number (alternating) everytime
-A2dp quality is quite good (could be better, but definately very usable)
-Voice command quite usable (still rarely switches back to device speaker)
-very stable bluetooth connection
-remote control of windows media player
not working:
-display doesnt show song title, but i guess we'll never get that on a wm5 device...hope i'm wrong.
Wanna thank everyone on the hermes gps thread...keep up the good work!!
so you can stream media player to the headset too as well as controlling VC1.6? Does VC1.6 fire up when pressing headset button?
Hi!
When I'm listening to music, and press the headset button:
-Mediaplayer goes on pause
-after 2-3 seconds I hear the voice command ding-sound and can say my command. Then hear the lady from microsoft ;-) respond (on long responses the sound sometimes switches back to the device speaker such as when the lady asks me what number-entry to dial and there are 5 numbers in the contact.)
-then switches back to playing mediaplayer for about 2 seconds until the phone initiates the call and then pauses mediaplayer again and switches the headset to the call.
-after the call sound again goes to a2dp and the song resumes playing.
Hope it stays that way...I'll be very very carefull what programs I install.
programs I got installed at this point are:
spb diary
prssreader
navigon mobile navigator 5
google maps (the new not java one)
wakeitup
pocketstreets 2005
tcpmp
clearvue pdf
spb gprs monitor
totalcommander
+the ones mentioned in my post above
(all programs, if not mentioned otherwise, are the latest versions)
oh BTW I tried setting a2dp quality to "low". I can't hear the difference to "medium" and think it will be less stress on the cpu.
what does not work, is also that the announciation of new messages from voice command 1.6 when set to "announce only over bluetooth" still come out of the device speaker.
Hope it works for you, too.
excellent. i'll try these settings. thanks for detailed message
got myself a ds970 and followed your instructions Brevi. music streams brilliantly but i can't transfer calls to the headset,make calls from the headset nor can i get VC1.6 to fire up when i press the headset button. if i start VC1.6 on phone, then i can say command on the headset and that works.
Do you install the JetDial app?
What settings did you configure in the Jetware settings?
any ideas?
i have the "new" btagext.dll which fixed VC1.5 and mono headset - do you think that's the issue?
Update: Aha, i uninstalled the JetDial app (stupid or what) and now everything works except starting VC1.6 using the headset button. i suspect, JetDial has left some reg keys that need removing. No idea what though
Hi! Yeah, you probably need to do a hard-reset to get a clean install of all the little "helpers". I'm confident it will work then.
Tell me if you get the "play reminders only over bluetooth handsfree" option in vc1.6 to work maybe with the btagext.dll. I'm away from my main computer for a couple of days and unfortunately can't mess with my phone till I get back.
Hi, since coming from the Treo 700wx I don't miss too many things but I do miss not being able to continue streaming bluetooth stereo(WMP music) from the Mogul to my Motorola S9's with the device off i.e. just pushing power button once. My only option seems to be blanking the screen in WMP but that really doesn't lock the device from input. Is there any option to do this without enabling keyguard/locking? Maybe the HTC devices or the Mogul in particular just handle this differently than the Treo(among many other differences)? Thanks in advance.
I just got the Motorola S805's. I wish WMP had that feature built in. A program I've used before, that I can't seem to find on my computer, is http://www.handango.com/PlatformPro...=2&N=4294913805 95837&R=51696&productId=51696
This program worked perfect for the display issue!!
I have the S805's also (great headphones) and stream with SiriusWM5 which uses WMP. It's quite annoying to have the display on while streaming. I am not sure if TCPMP also has this behavior.
I just installed TCPMP and tried opening up an MP3 and putting the device in standby and audio pauses.
Man this blows.. even in Windows CE media players gave you the option to blank the screen to save battery life. With all the advances in software you would think this would be trivial.
yeah i just installed the trial version of PocketMusic. When I had it before I didn't have BT headphones. But I've tried just about all the settings I can think of, and all the results pause the music at some point. at this point though, I really don't mind locking up the phone with WMP. but it is annoying cause it's having to hit several buttons vs 1
if i were able to get PocketMusic to work with the display auto shutoff that locks all the buttons, i would only need to hit the power button to access it again.
TCPMP works for this...You have to go into Options -> Settings -> Hotkeys -> goto the 2nd to last option & set the "screen on/off" to what ever button you like...Now when you are playing music just hit that button & it will kill the display.
On a side note...Anyone able to get SiriusWM5 to work w/ TCPMP on the new WM 6.1?...I keep getting an error saying "Player: Audio codec (windows media audio) not supported by the player!"
I am getting the same error with TCPMP

I stand corrected. Using my old method of using device lock that blanks screen while using bluetooth, when I would fast forward WMP wouldn't light up like b4. Now i just switched to the included headphones and when I put it in standy by it shuts off. I might try that link i posted above.

OK You ROCK!!!!
This totally works and solves the problem with WM6 and SiriusWM5 for me!
I am streaming Sirius using Windows Media Player in Standby mode right now!!!!
can someone make this into a cab?
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Preferences]
"UnattendedPlayback"=dword:1
"FastCacheReserve"=dword:00800000
"LocalCacheReserve"=dword:00800000
Here you go:
Use at your own risk. I installed it on a TytnII and it didn't work. The registry entries were installed properly but WMP stopped playing when I put it in standby.
Since I know how to edit my own registry and don't need a cab it's not worth my time to further test. If it's useful to you then great!
Anyway.. here is the cab you requested:

Enjoy!
awesome reg settings!! fixed the issue for me. Tried pocket music and like the EQ functions but will probably stick with WMP now that it will play in standby. Thanks!! Once again this forum comes through for the Mogul cult!!!
These settings did not work for me, the WMP stops and the device powers down. How did you get it to work?
I ended up using armstrom's Devicelock v1.2, a very clean solution to turn off the display and lock the buttons with one button press.

I assume this isn't phone specific? Ive always wanted to be able to shut the screen down to conserve power but still listen to audio
Not sure, maybe dcd version or verizon related? My DCD 2.1 works great in standby with WMP streaming over a2dp with those reg edits.
Try the HTC Audio Manager version1.02.919.713 and the program allows the phone to sleep while still playing without any changes. It also uses about half of the ram that wmp uses when the program playing with the library loaded up.

I can only find UnattendedPlayback in the registry. I can't find FastCacheReserve or LocalCacheReserve. Any ideas? Should I just change the UnattendedPlayback to 1 and not worry about the rest? Thanks
Thats what I did just changed it to 1 and reset and it worked.

That's what I used on my Apache (before it fell off my motorcycle on the freeway ). The HTC Audio Manager works great with the screen on or off.
Dear friends, just sharing what I discovered today. I have found many posts ASKING about how to make any audio player working with set on standby mode. Maybe some of u know but for those who don't here is what I found today.
If u want to play music while set is in standby (screen off) :-
1- play WMP
2- press start
3- goto today
4- press power button, so that screen goes off thus set is in stanby
Thats all - WMP is still playing, Good ???
Enjoy!
Heh, no buddy, that doesn't mean anything. There are a bunch of registry settings that should be there. In all my new roms, this is taken care of. Other thing is that the headset should be plugged into the phone to make this happen

Do you know something funny? After you go to standby with the headphone connected and then remove the headphone, it continues to play . Seen it with AudioManager, dont know about wmp.
@mehra: It really depends on your particular device, there are a lot in which it doesn't work without reg tweak even when the headphone is attached, like mine, until as krazy said, you do the tweaking.
ok
i was lucky for no tweaking was required.
Hi there,
Can anyone help me?
1. I used to use the control buttons on the earphone to pause and play the next/previous song but now it doesn't work anymore. Rebooting doesn't help either. I install Shake2PlayNext on the market but it only works when the screen is on. Anyone knows any solutions that I can control the music while off-screen?
2. The on/off data (G/3G) function is not working properly, sometimes I try to turn it on but it says "Service is not available". What I have to do is to disable all wireless connections by Airplane mode then turn on G/3G; rebooting can also solve the problem but both solutions just function for several hours then I have to repeat all those annoyed procedures to connect to data. Any experience?
I'm on rooted 1.5 stock ROM
Thanks
I have a silly little problem. I put ROM Omega V25 XT with Co0kie's Home Tab v2.0 on my HD2. For audio and video playback I use CorePlayer v.1.3.2, which works without problems (tested on HD2 with the original ROM and the HD1 for a year now). The problem occurs when you switch off the screen, the sound just goes out though CorePlayer continues to work properly. In short the sound will not work if the screen is off. I tried the Omega v26 but same problem is present. Just don't know what to do. If you leave the phone and the screen turns itself off then the sound works but every 15-20s is interrupted. Does anyone have any idea. 3 different ROM did not help, reset did not help. Ideas?
I think there's a setting somewhere within coreplayer to set the sound to continue playing when the screen is off. Not sure though.

Option Play music in the background is active. The problem is that cell phone turns off the sound, but play still goes normally. After unlocking the phone can see that music still going. To reactivate the sound it is necessary to pause and restart music. If you use a player from the SENC and the sound works without any problems.
I have the impression that the ROM will shut down all applications to conserve battery which prompted me to turn off the power savings, but this did not help.
