Widcomm Bluetooth stack on JasJar & removing MS stack

[parallel666killer]

did anybody try to replace the original MS Bluetooth stack with the Widcomm Bluetooth stack?
i'm trying to do that with the broadcom bluetooth stack 1.7.0 from aximsite.

and how to completely remove the original MS stack?

Those threads are showing development, so I guess we'll have to wait and see if there is a final product that shows up

Thanks for the link. There also was a posting in there that it did NOT work on the Universal. Thoughts?

hmm... I hv a newer Broadcomm Stack 1.7.6.500 and 1.7.1.9000 workin with Universal, but currently Pausin the progress due the problem with my memory...lol.. I've forgot the setting/configuration to enable Handsfree Profile with Universal, previously I've successfully make handsfree (transmit all audio to standar BT headset), and about A2DP its globaly known that Broadcomm is so much better with A2DP then M$ one. Hopes I'll hv time to play with it again.

Last progress:
- Blue led didn't turn on, but It will if u suspend the device, and it will blink even after u turn off broadcomm stack..
- Forgoten the Handsfree setting/configuration
- Others function seems to be workin ok.

Hello,

I think you don't need to remove M$ stack, just turn it off by doin the following:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Tr ansports\BuiltIn\2]
"driver"="_bthuart.dll"

Add a "_" and the m$ is off.

Anyone read this? http://www.pdagold.com/articles/detail.asp?a=197

If I am not mistaken they say that there is a security vulnerability in the Widcomm Bluetooth 1.4.2 and no patch was released. Is 1.7 going to fix this security issue? Also does M$ have this same problem?
What is the benefit of switching over to Widcomm?
