HTC sound equalizer not working with BT headset

[hass]

When I try to use the sound equalizer it just says I have to connect a headset - but I have a BT headset connected!!!

Is there any registry hack to make it work with BT Headsets and not just usb ones?

Does anyone else have this problem?

We talk about HTC Audiobooster?

It only works with the HTC Kabel Headset! It doesnt work with Blue Tooth devices :->

I've had the same problem - very irritating.

however, look up and download SRS WOW HD - install, reboot the phone.

The Audio Booster disappears from the HTC Music Player, and you have a settings option for the SRS WOW HD. It does take a bit of processor time, and a fair bit of tweaking of its options, but it does make the Dual sound quite nice.

Shame about the occasional "break" in the music though.

THis Programm work ONLY with the Kabel Headset!!!

Does SRS WOW HD work with bluetooth headsets?

[NetrunnerAT]

Yes it does, but you need Edit your Registry, too support your Blue Tooth driver.

Here a Copy from a Thread about this task:

That worked through BT headset it is necessary to copy all parameters from [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\Wave Dev] in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\BtA2dpSnd
Except for value of parameter "OldDriver", he should be such, as was "DLL"
For example:
Before
"DLL" = "bta2dp.dll"

After
"DLL" = "WOWHD_ARM_WCE_PPC2005_Driver.dll"
"OldDriver" = "bta2dp.dll"

To have real stereo with your bluetooth stereo headphone you have to change the following registry key:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A2DP\Settings
Change the UseJointStereo value 1 to 0.

The value 1 means dual mono, value 0 means stereo

Importent ... befor you edit ... you must 100% know what is your device blue tooth driver!!! different HTC Device ... different Drivers!

I added the information above and installed the driver. I am now restarting to see if that fixes otherwise I uninstall the drive and go back to the old one.

grrrr

you doesnt understand me ... what stand in the regkeys befor you edit the settings? have you restart your device after change?

[hass]

I now did a hard resert but thanks!

[cojones]

I spoke too soon - I now have no sound during phone calls! I am right now removing the changes I made... :mad:

That happened to me too, needed a pesky hard reset. Can anyone explain the reg changes again?

[NetrunnerAT]

this are the reg changes and it works! if its a big problem for the most guys, i can provide a modded version for Qualcomm Devices. i need only few min. to edit.

[hass]

I did a hard reset to get my phone working again. I don't know what it was that stopped the sound on my phone but I just have to make do with standard instead :(

[NetrunnerAT]

Stopped? You mean the little breaks?

Oh ... this isnt a SRS WOW problem! it is possible you tweak your device with some registry settings? Breaks in the Audiostream have many reasons. the most are ...

Buffer in the Blue Tooth Stack are to high
Buffer in the File System are to high and the MicroSD Card go in the deep power down mode (this problem can you have, if you here a very large file and a big part can stay in your ram!)
you switch to the next track (this is the most reason)
process task doesnt become enough resources (possible ... )
generel powermanagment problems

all this bracks are only timing problems of many parts in your device!!!

[hass]

No, not the pauses issue that others have referred to - after installing SRS WOW and making the registry changes I had no sound at all during phone calls. Music worked fine but when I called someone or when they called me then I couldn't hear them and they couldn't hear me.

I had to hard reset to fix the problem.

[miko2]

Did anybody succeeded with xt7500 + srs wow over bluetooth ?
at least tried myself and at the moment no progress.
Before reg keys copy BT worked well and connected with
headset. After keys copy ppc BT menu indicted that wireless stereo are'nt
avaliable.
Is it nescessary copy over also same named settings ? example
both folders have before copy same named settings, like index, etc.
Good comments appreciated.

If you added bluetooth support to SRS and lost sound (or downloaded a cab with bluetooth support builtin) you need to follow the earlier instruction warnings, namely:
Preserve your Index, Prefix, and OldDriver settings so that they match what was previously specified in your BTA2DPSND registry folder (with the contents of olddriver matching whatever was in driver).

I was wondering what app is better? HTC Audio Booster or SRS WOW HD sound driver? I am looking for the one that has more tweaking and better sounding with the usb headphones, not the Bluetooth.

[NetrunnerAT]

HTC Audio Booster doesnt work via Blue Tooth. It only mod some settings in the audio amp.

[Mattyg986]

so HTC audio booster is the better of the two overall?

[Mattyg986]

so SRS WOW HD audion driver is the better of the two overall?

Depends on your preferences.

After a while of using the SRS WOW HD I've given up on it - its just plain awkward changing the settings, and it can give some very unpleasant effects. The sound from the Jabra BT620s was acceptable without any EQ anyway.

And I've actually given up on the Touch Dual now - its just been a total pain in the back end, and I'm finding my archaic SE K800 a much easier phone to use. I'd be back on the N73 if I had a memory card free (gave away the 2gig card ages back!) - the N73 stereo widening and EQ work via A2DP very nicely, and given sound quality leagues ahead of either the Touch Dual or K800.

I've learnt my lesson in a painful way - shouldn't have got the Touch Dual, should have picked up an N95 ....
