Samsung Omnia 7 choppy bluetooth playback

---

Hi All,

I would like to know if anyone is experiencing some problems with bluetooth headset choppy playback on Samsung Omnia 7 and/or WP7 in general.

My problem is that music is just unlistenable on my device using my Motorola S9 headset. Sound is cutting every 1 or 2 second !

Using wired headset or external speaker is ok.

Thanks for you answers/feedback

Regards,

Thomas

no problems with my jabra bt headset and my hd7. Just as smooth and loud as wired for audio (just wish videos were supported).
Have you tried deleting the profile and reconnecting?
Also might try another BT (maybe borrow someone's just to check), to help narrow it down to your BT or your phone.
My wife has problems with motorola BT's and android devices.

I use a bluetooth headset all the time and sound playback can cut out if the phone is too far away from the headset, or if arms / clothing get in the way of the signal. I tend to keep the phone in my breast pocket and that's OK. In the trouser pocket, it's terrible.

So try putting the phone nearer to your headset and see if that makes any difference.

Bluetooth radio is very, very low power, and it's not surprising the signal can get cut off by objects that are in the way. Distance is a big factor too. I guess some headsets are better at receiving a reduced signal than others.

Thanks for your answers !

No matter what I try, it doesn't work... But I remember having tried my headset in the first times I got my device and it was working, I am sure ....

I am going to wait until nodo is out and we'll see if it solve the problem.

Thanks

Thomas

I have the nodo update and experience the same problem as you--choppy bluetooth playback with interruptions every 2nd second or so. The worst thing is that playback was perfectly fine before the update, and if i roll back to previous version playback is fine again. The choppy playback seems to have been introduced by nodo. Has anyone else experieced the same?

My phone is:

OS version: 7.0.7390.0
Firmware revision number: 2424.11.1.1
Hardware revision number: 3.15.0.4
Radio software version: 2424.11.1.1
Radio hardware version: 0.0.0.800
Bootloader version: 4.1.0.5
Chip SOC version: 0.36.2.0

It might be work noting that the phone had copy paste functionality on delivery (I got the phone a couple of weeks ago). The version number was pre nodo, but more recent than the vast majority of Omnia 7's out there.

Happens on my Omnia 7 as well. Solution? Disabled wireless.

Does not seem to do the trick for me. Tried to disable data, wireless and GPS. Still the same chopping playback. Do you have the same versions as I have?

No, I don't have the nodo update and the only difference aside from that is the radio software.

2424.10.10.6

I had the same problem with my BT headset after the NODO update.

Solution (at least for me):

using Registry Editor:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Bluetooth/AudioGateway

Set SupportCLI from 0 to 1

My BT headset works like charm again

I have no idea why MS changed that value in the update...

Thanks for your answer, guess I'll have to find out how to modify registry on Windows Phone 7.

Can't help wondering how you found out this :)

Neither have I. Seems like they are developing procedures on how to release updates to the new platform. Seems like things can get a bit complicated with OEMs in the loop. Quite impressed anyhow by how smooth the update was either way, quite an accievement to deliver updates to all windows phones.
