3500 and 3100 are different. I did try 3500 (with same modifications) on H6315 and it dd not work. I forget what went wrong. I did not test long because of time and 3500 has some issues on all phones. And 3100 seemed like a good improvement.

I don't understand why there are so many bugs. One reason might be is that Widcomm sold stack to Broadcomm and Broadcomm made changes and broke it.

Any chance anyone could post a "how to" for us non-tech folks? The BT headset issue has me keeping the sleep mode OFF and it's killing my battery life...

thanks!

U can always use the screen off mode to save some battery life.

Mswlogo,

Do I need to delete any files etc before I install the patch? I have a situation where the BT SW on my ipaq just hangs (out of rrange symptom) inspite of the fact that the headset is always next to my PDA. Cannot simulate it but it has happened several times.


regards

screen off hangs the phone...

and, as I keep it in a dayrunner, any bumps turns it on, dials a call, etc...

I only keep it on so as not to lost the damn BT connection with the headset...

There's nothing technical. The file is a CAB file. Make a system backup. Copy the 3100 path to the PPC root. run it and u are good to go.
Usually its best to do a hard reset then initially install the patch, this will ensure that no apps are causing any conflicts. It it works..well you just have to reinstall all your apps...if it doesn't...then a backup restore is in place.

That's exactly the advice I would have given.

I believe headsets, Headset revisions and Possibly Phone Revisions vary and may cause one person success and others not.

thanks...guess I'll wait...the only thing I know about CABS is they usually smell and are very expensive...

<sigh>

I tried the patch. I was hoping it would eliminate the popping sound in the HP bluetooth headphones but to no avail. Sadly I've returned them. HP is sure to never get my business again. Carly needs to get her act together.

Thanks fo the update! I have updated my iPAQ 6365 from the one Paladin27 posting... Now the driver version is Broadcom v3000...

Any chance to update 6365 BT to 3500? I have tried 3500 with SoundGW.dll, but when I want to activate BT it says "Insufficient memory bla bla... "...

Also I can't Power On and Power Off when version 3500 installed on my iPAQ (the Power Button suddenly refuses to work)...

That 3500 patch I put together will not work on the H6315. I run the 3100 Build myself on a PPC-6601. Build 3500 is unstable.

You will have to hard reset to get back to 3100.

Thanks for your suggestion mswlogo... please inform for any updates... Happy New Year!

Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you!


Round of beer for all




Ran the patch, and thus far going on 18hrs no issues with my Jabra 250 headset and h6315 with the logo at the bottom right! w00t!

So in conclusion

Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you!

*EDIT* I'm using the 3500 Patch from the first post in this thread...yeah I have a small issue of me having to soft reset the phone to re-enable the bluetooth but no bigge as it's usually not more than once a day avg.

This is an interesting development. I just went through hell trying to get my jabra bt250 even get SEEN by my 6315.


Downloaded the cab file, will play with it shortly.

well, the patch didn't help.

I hard-reset, and that seems to have worked for now.

:/

not thrilled about having to do that, though.

Installing the patch to see if that improves things.


Anyone know an ETA on the official HP / Tmobile patch? the kid i talked to @ tmobile support last night said it was SUPPOSED to have gone out in the 3rd week of december but that there was one bug with it in testing that threw it back to HP, so he didn't know any further at that point.

Jabra 250 is the most troublesome headset on the HTC phones.
The company that released the patches for the i-mate phones (which is what this patch is derived from) specifically called out the Jabra 250 as having problems and to contact Jabra.

Also stay away from HS820 (audio quality is really not very good compared to other headsets).

seriously? that sucks. I love this thing, too, now that it suddenly works relatively ok.

I'll contact them if it gets better or worse.

amen to the Moto HS820 not working with the 6315. I have both the HS820 and HS810. I use the hs820 at work with my v600 because of the awesome battery life it has. The HS810 definitly works better (as far as the audio is concerned) on the ipaq. Though with extensive testing with the 3100 patch MSwlogo put out there is not a big improvement. HS810 works slightly better with the patch.

I work for t-mobile so ill let you guys know as soon as I hear something

I have both a Jabra BT200 and a Motorola HS820 and I have to say I like the HS820 much better then the BT200 (which is basically a BT250 with a dongle adapter for non-BT phones.) The audio quality is as good and the headset itself is lighter and less obtrusive and the buttons are easier to find and use.
