Guys,

What do you think if we have a new Bluetooth stack to our Uni?
It's Broadcom 1.8.7 Build 0600. So far I know it is the latest build from Broadcom.

This thread has been created using Internet Connection Sharing over Broadcom BT stack (1.8.7 Build 0600). :D

Cheers.

Hi Ranju!

I'm using currently the roadcomm stack provided by Helmi (UNIBT.cab) . It works well for me! I'm not at home this time, so I can't check the version of the build, but I'm sure that Helmi's is older! It would be cool if you could include the new stack in your ROM, or provide us just a cab file to install:)

Thanks for your great ROM too, Ranju!

In my mind the widcomm/broadcomm stacks were the best! I have only one problem with them now. When I'm using the headset profile with Helmi's stack I can't receive or make calls using the BT headset, in fact I can't hear any audio at all. The other issue is that I believe that the headset button cannot be used to initiate microsoft voice command. If these issues can be resolved then I think there will be a mass following on this project!

I've started working on the latest Widcomm build. Basic part is working now.
Let's see ...

helmi's stack was ok, expect handsfree profile, if you will port newest version, and all necessary profiles (handsfree, a2dp, and others) will be working it would be great suprise for uni users

Do you make the Handfree profile working?
Few months ago, I've tried the 1.8.7 Build 300 combined with Helmi's old one, all ok but HF.

I DO think it's useless without HF.
Really expect your wonderful work!

How did you combine BT Stack v1.8.7.300 with the old? I can use any directions or help.

Any chance to have ActiveSync over BT working properly with this stack and your latest ROM?

Thank you for all your efforts!

Last time I tried to install the Widcomm BT stack, it froze the phone after every bit of fiddling (i.e. after listening 1 minute of A2DP music, or after browsing the phone with FTP for 1 minute, etc)

Now that basic and some advanced profiles are also available for the MSBT stack, I don't miss the widcomm anymore.

Moreover, it's a pain in the ass to program! (i'm making a bluetooth-multiplayer game)

Whats the advantage that the broadcomm stack has over the MS stack? My BT is currently working perfectly (useing Ranju 7.4), A2DP works like a charm, calling thru the headset works fine. So why would we want to use another stack? (no rant, I'm really interested and want to know ;-)

It handles better with COM ports, and you can use even another phone as a BT modem for example. And the UI is much better :D

Hmmm... I would appriciate it. I'm struggeling with Helmi's Broadcomm BT stack, it complains about there not being enough memory. Though I do have more than 20Mb free.
And also, MS doesn't quiet work with stereo hands free either, it just stops after 5 secs. And I have tried a bunch of registry-tweaks.
So -I- for one, would appriciate work on a bluetooth stack that actually works, very much.
Thanks Ranju, for offering your work on this!
Thank you very much! :)

You can do that too with Microsoft BT stack, and I think it's actually easier...

OK, maybe 4 you but for me the MS stack was shitting with my GPS, i needed an hour to connect to my regular GPS! With Widcom it was just a click... And, for example with Ranju-s ROM you can't use another BT phone as a modem! Only with widcomm! (i know there are ROMs with MS BT wich CAN use other phone's internet conn. via BT...)

Is anybody testing this stack? Could we get a DL link to it? Thanx!

You are speaking with a staunch opposer of Ranju :D
