Bounty for working MS Bluetooth stack on TP2

[helix139]

I'm sick of this bluetooth stack and its neverending issues so I'm offering a $50 bounty for whoever can get the MS bluetooth stack working fully on an otherwise stock TP2 ROM for both Verizon and Sprint with the standard set of profiles (Headset/handsfree, PAN, OBEX, DUN, Stereo, File Transfer, Activesync, Print, etc. basically everything available on the TP1) and can explain how they did it. Any and all methods are acceptable, including an installable .cab or cooking it into the stock ROM.

If the Widcomm stack works fine for you, then great and this topic does not concern you. This thread is not to debate which stack is better or for people to share their experiences on what works. It is for donating to the bounty for a working MS stack ONLY.

As I've never setup a bounty before, if someone could PM me the easiest way to do this I would be very grateful.

Anyone else who wishes to contribute, please post your amount below and PM me. will keep track of the total amount so far at the bottom of this post.

Current Total Bounty: $145 (11/17 8:44 AM)

I dont get what is wrong, I think it works fine. I've not had one issue with BT at all.

Headsets aren't hanging up, Voice command is having all kinds of problems, redialing isn't working, etc. There are numerous threads on this and if the Widcomm stack works fine for you, then great, but there are a great many of us who are VERY dissatisfied with it.

If Widcomm works for you, then fine. No need for you to post in this thread. Not to be a jerk, but this thread is for contributions to the bounty for those who want the option of using the MS stack only.

It's happening with multiple headsets and handsfree devices, including popular ones like the entire Jawbone series (which works perfectly on the MS stack) and is consistent from device to device, so no, that isn't the problem. As far as I know, only Nissans with factory nav had problems with the MS stack, so now instead of a small subset of users with no functionality, we have a very large subset of users with significant loss of functionality. It's not a hands free device if i have to dig my phone out of my center console every time I want to end a call.

I think you should set up a PayPal account to get people to donate to if your serious. I've seen too many times were people said they would contribute, just to disappear when it was time to pay up.

So set up a donation account on paypal and post a link here. Then keep updating the available balance in the account on this thread. However, I have no problem with the widcomm bluetooth stack except that my bluetooth headset sometimes needs two clicks to hang up and that my car bluetooth takes forever to hang up. Otherwise everything else works fine.

I'm sorry to disappoint any of you, but you're gonna be hard pressed to find an installable solution for this. Until the Hard SPL is released to allow custom ROMs, you're gonna have to either cope with what we've got. I'm not saying it won't happen at all ever, but it's not just as simple as a reg hack or a couple files.



Maybe this is HTC's way of agreeing with me that bluetooth headsets should be banned, lol...

But I look so cool and slick with my bluetooth everywhere I go. Everyone is like, "Ohh look at that sexy dude with his cool bluetooth. He's so stylish. I wanna be like him."

NM...They're pretty gay but I have to wear it in my car, or I have to answer to my commander of the Air Force Base. You just have to find the least gayest one.
