BT Problem - HTC Touch Pro2

[Raggi73]

I'm having the same problem with my Touch Pro 2 w/windows 6.5

I did the hack to skip most of the navi warnings but I'm still getting trouble with the bluetooth.

I have a similar problem with the HTC HD2. I have previously used the Touch HD and TyTn II with no problems. It seems to be a problem with the Bluetooth stack in the phone. It will eventually be possible to change the stack, using a "cooked ROM" (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/), but we'll have to wait until someone comes up with one featuring a new bluetooth stack.

 

It may be worth trying out Jetware Mobile's bluetooth app (http://www.jetwaremobile.com/), but if the phone uses a non-standard MS stack, it probably will not install.

+1. same scenario for me, F900BT with Verizon Touch Pro 2.

So I just flashed to MightyMike's 1/4/10 ROM from PPCGeeks (http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=79579) and it works much better sofar with my F90BT. Apparently the newly released 6.5 USC (another carrier) ROM had an updated BT stack that seems to alleviate many issues. Here's to hoping it works for you too.

Are you able to answer calls and the phone not freezing? I'm pretty sure most of the ROMs use the same stack by now but I'm still getting freezes whenever I get an incoming call. Will check out the MM ROM when I have time. Thanks for the heads up.

Ditto for me. I have Verizon's Touch Pro2 and the F900BT. I saw one poster mentioned Windows Mobile 6.5, but is that a cooked ROM or is that the AT&T version of the Touch Pro2? Better asked, is there anyone that is having this problem with the AT&T Touch Pro2 (all stock, nothing cooked or hacked)? Thanks.

Add me in with the same problem, 1 ring and the phone freezes. Outgoing calls work fine but the Voice Recognition is not as reliable as it used to be.

My old AT&T Tilt worked perfectly

So I got this straight from the horse's mouth: MM uses an updated BT driver (not a new stack, just an updated driver, which seems to fix most of the issues) from the USC 6.5 ROM Update that was released. It works. I can answer calls. Hang up calls. Make calls... and all the while, my phone is just as fast(or maybe 90%) as it is normally. It doesn't slow down to a "FFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU" state anymore. I do have a small problem with answering, in that I have to answer with the headunit OR the hardware phone button, because about 1/4 of the time using the "slide-to-answer" mechanism doesn't work. But yeah, HUGE improvement.

Great info. Do you know if it required a ROM to be flashed to the phone or was it just installing a cab or was it just replacing a couple of dll's or what? Thanks.

I'm a MightyROM junkie too and am also finding the 1/4/10 release to be much better performing, on the phone itself as well as BT.

[slvrdrgn123]

Do you know which one of MM ROMS have it? He has quite a few releases out right now. Hopefully there will be a CAB to install it because I'm running Juicy's ROM right now.

 

Edit, NVM. It's his 1/4 release. Thanks.

Oh, that's what you meant by MM. My bad .

[gponick]

Juicy may have incorporated it into his most recent rom. If not, ask him to talk to MM. I know they've chatted in the past.

I've been experiencing a similar issue with my HTC TP (not TP2) using Win mobile 6.1.. I upgraded the ROM to Win6.5 and still have the same issue. I even tried it with a friends Sprint phone (non windows mobile) and a Nokia AT&T phone (Non win mobile). Every time it connects to the F500BT via BT, it reboots.
