Ok, So what is A2DP? Why the big deal over BTtoggle? Like I said, I searched and got that much, but that's all I understood

ok this (bttoggle) allows to use a regular headset and listen to music is mono (cant remember I think maybe 8kb) which is low quality and a2dp allows to listen to ur music is stereo which is a lot higher quality and u actually get that sound like ur listenin to ur ipod or cd player with the highs, meds, and lows actually hearing bass and what not. note that this is I'm laymens terms.

maybe this helps.

Hmmmm i dont think i have the new rom but my headset(bluetrek x2) has worked with no hacks and extra effort from day one. All i do is press the button on the headset and the audio gate opens/turns on. I guess i am lucky....from what i understand it is the samplling rate that has to get better before BT will sound as good as a wire? as in 8 bit versus the 16 bit we are used to? is this limitation something that bt is likely to overcome ?

you can over come and get a2dp on the phone which offers stereo sound via bluetooth headsets.....but the headset itself has to be a2dp compatible.

Makes sense but i understand even the best BT stereo(mine is not a stereo headset) quality sound is not killer either. Is it still 8 bit ? I know the a2dp profile makes BT headsets that are stereo sound much better then the mono in both ears you get without it.

I'm not 100% sure what the rate is to be honest but with the a2dp profile sound quality is increased but not on regular headsets tho...

i have a treo 700wx and i installed the toggle...but when i switch over to the audio gateway and push the button on headset nothing happens and the sound still will come out of my speaker....u mentioned of locking your phone but the wx doesnt have device lock on the today screen...is the toggle not compatible to the 700wx? appreciate your help!
