Just a relatively short question about bluetooth audio performance.

Been using Meschle's Touch 3.0, currently drooling over getting a bigger SD card for my music, but thats another story.

I've just started to use bluetooth music, got my funky headphones and am loving the lack of cables :) But the phone really slows down when doing so. Everything is in slow motion, if i want to access contacts or programs, the phone becomes painfully slow. I'm thinking that the cube may have something to do about that, but i want to keep this rom on my phone for just a little longer before i reflash.

Will Removing the cube(or changing to a version without it) yield a tangible speed increase or is there something else that i can do to improve performance, currently running @ 247mhz.

Cheers

P.S have the registry modification for giving higher priority to BT audio, maybe that has something to do with it, not sure.

Yes, I discovered that it really slows down the phone if you're streaming A2DP...

two solutions/workarounds - 1: use a lean rom - I'm now back at Vanilla 2.01. Secondly, try using CorePlayer (www.coreplayer.com, serials are 'available') for playing the audio - it's far more efficient over a2dp, so should make an improvement

what we can expect ? An OMAP 201 event overclocked at 267? If you really need A2DP, perhaps you should change your pda.

Biou, your post isn't helpful in the slightest, did i sound like i was making a complaint? which part did i say i need A2DP? Do you have money to throw around whenever you see a new feature? I sure as hell don't! I've got bills to pay!

'Perhaps you should change your pda' isn't going to help me in the slightest!

But i suppose i should expect that kind of response on a public forum, I suppose my expectations are too high, even here!!! How about this......if i 'ever' post another question again, please choose to ignore it unless you actually have something useful to say, thanks and goodbye!

And now thats over with......

TangerineTractor: Thanks for the insight, i was leaning towards getting a lighter build, the cube feature isn't something that i ever use, so that can go without hesitation, but......everything else........i love all of the little extras that come with the rom, plus the HTC home integration with audio manager is sweet too. although the audio manager isn't the best playback software out there, it's the ease of use which has got me.

Lots to think about but i'll probably use one of the lite(no cube) Artemis Touch 3.01 roms, and chop from there. I'll check out coreplayer also.

Thanks again!

Hi bro,

I have went through lots of painful experiences in tweaking the ad2p settings when I was using HP rw6828. For artemis, its is a really painless to tweaks the settings. But for AD2p, if you are using the direct way of streaming, it is normal to experience lack.

You may wish to try MIS Blueplayer which gave excellent sound quality. but apparently, tweaks need to be made so that you can have the player playing in power saving mode.

Hope this helps.

Well, I decided to upgrade to Meschle's Non-cube 3.01 firmware, opted for the full version as most of the extra's don't necessarily run in the background.

Seems to much smoother without the cube running in the background, and as i never really used the cube, it's not exactly a feature that i'm going to miss.

Bluetooth streaming does seem to take quite a bit out of this poor little phone. But i'm still loving it.

Now all i need is my psp bluetooth adaptor, and 8GB memory card, and i'm all set :)
