Can someone hack the HBH-ds970 mp3 track id to work on PDA phones?

Regarding the Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 wireless stereo bluetooth

I've been told that you can get the Caller ID display working by installing this:

But what i don't get is why when playing mp3 (using Pocket Player or any other equivalent program that can play mp3 files), the Track Info/ID simply won't display, and only works on Sony Ericsson phones. I mean AVRCP works with no program..i can fast forward/backward (although with a little lag) and adjust volume/play/pause etc.
Surely there must be a hack around this because if you can get it to display track ID on Sony Ericsson phones then surely you can get it to display on PDA phones..

Any ideas? Cheers!

I;m pretty sure this is not possible, You would have to know how to send commands so the headset would read them, which sorta needs a little info from sony-ericsson.
Theres a reason why it only works with Sony-ericsson phones.

may b kinda late reply ... sorry for tat,

i was tryin to get "the info" how do they communicate, but tat info may be only written in the secret book of sony ericsson, i m still tryin :) , but fortunately se is oing to release their first wm phone xpeara x1, which they are saying going to be perfectly compatible with these handsets and if we get a copy of rom to cook then .... guess what :cool:

so just hold tight and wait for may b 6 monts or so :D

Can't wait to get the ds980 working with wm6 phone (Titan)

There's an app that sends those info into the SE watch right?
Maybe you should work with the developer there, coz I can't imagine it to be that big of a diff? (Hopefully?)

I have the SE headset and CallerID displays with my TouchXL with WM6. It does not display the track information, but the display is too small for that in my opinion anyway. There is likely something in the SE Walkman player that sends the MP3 information to the headset. My only thought would be to see if the SE P1 windows mobile device works and see if the settings/music player can be ported to another device. Sorry I don't have one to test...
