[Q] Rom w/ Nexus S Bluetooth Driver - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

If you tried out the Nexus S rom ported to the galaxy S, you probably know that the bluetooth drivers are capable of pairing with a wiimote unlike the stock bluetooth driver. Does anyone know of any rom with the Nexus S bluetooth stack on it? or does anyone know how i could possible put it in my current rom i'm using (cognition 2.3b8).
Also, could anyone make an odin version of cognition 2.3b8 please? flashing to stock every time i screw it up is annoying. If you can't, that's fine.

Would want this as well!

I'd love this too.

Cm7 has this

[Q] Anyone try JM7 (i9000 eclair) yet?

JM7 is the latest Eclair build for the Galaxy S (not the captivate)
Wondering if BT works and if Sync Schedule for Exchange is there - the biggest things wrong with previous i9000 builds.
Thanks for any info.

bluetooth will most likely not be functional with a captivate kernel since it's the kernel that controls that, the ROM just chooses how to interface with it. since they weren't designed to be used together, they probably won't "just work" together without heavy kernel modifications.
as for exchange, couldn't tell you (don't have any exchange accounts)

The Froyo build is working with BT. And the BT chip should be the same between devices, so I am not convinced BT won't work.

They also use the same wireless radios yet the fmradio app doesn't work even with the i9000 kernel. We also have the same gravity sensor/accelerometer, yet that doesn't work properly either. It's more than just kernel. It's a combination of the rom, the kernel, and hardware access. Considering these are issues specific to running software not designed to work with the captivate, they will likely never be fixed by samsung so a new rom won't make them magically work.
As for bluetooth working on froyo, it works in eclair too for pairing, just isn't fully functional with audio

OK, let me clarify as i am hoping for experiences not speculation -
BT audio for phone calls works fine in Froyo with a captivate kernel according to reports but not in previous Eclair builds - has anyone tried BT audio in JM7?

I would love to know where you say someone said "BT audio works fine in froyo with a captivate kernel."
we have no captivate kernel compatible with froyo. when you flash a froyo build, you're using the i9000 kernel because there are no captivate ROMs available yet. if you try using the eclair captivate kernel in the froyo i9000 ROM, your phone will not even boot (have to fix through download mode)

My typo -I know the kernel is specific to the version. - i have not tried a Froyo build yet - but the fact is Froyo BT works for audio as reported in other threads. So it is not unthinkable that Jm7 could have working BT Audio on our Captivate.
Again, all i am asking for is if someone has any first hand knowledge, not speculation. I know what the older versions have as I have tried those - just tired of flashing ROMs for now.

[Q] Bluetooth Voice Controls on new leaked Froyo

Anyone try using BT voice controls on this leaked Captivate Froyo ROM? I have a BlueAnt Q1 and it is not working. I did try it on the leaked I9000 Froyo ROM and it worked fine.

I'm wondering the same thing, I asked in the thread discussing the ROM as well as several other people, but it's the one question that has not been answered once, let alone 700 times
I don't think it works, but I think we're more likely to be able to get this from the i9k rom to put in to JI6 than we were to put it into one of the Eclair ROMs. That's just my 2 cents, but i'm no coder.

Wired headset buttons not working on most builds

Maybe this is just me but most builds I install don't have a working wired headset. I have tried searching for a fix, but the only thing I have found is that it could be a kernel problem that has not been fixed due numerous kernel updates. Does anybody know of a fix that can take care of this problem, or know of a NAND or Clockwork build (preferably desire HD) where the wired headset works.
Yes, i have this problem with the wired headset.
Now with my Bluetooth Headset (Calypso BT) buttons are working perfectly
My conclusion is that the problem is.. the sound card driver =)
Correct me if i'm wrong, i'd be honored to see someone correcting me
when i use Gauner1986 ROM with ROM's kernel or MDJ kernel 9.2, 9.3, my Wired headset buttons are working fine, but when i upgarde to 10.3 oc MDJ kernel, it does not work anymore
I just tried the new CoreDroid rom (Jan 24) and it doesn't work. I also tried the revolution 2.3 rom and no luck.
+1 for this problems... Only Gauner1986 HD 0.3 is Work... Others HD or Z Build... does not working at all... so, i can't anwser my phone calls when i driving my motorbike... and control music player :-<
Gauner's kernel supports this function. MDJ's does not. It is that simple.
If you want your buttons to work, use Gauner's kernel.
The core Droid roms work great with wired headphones I'm using the supersonic with no problems
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App

CoreDroid - the wired headset doesn't work.
So the question is what is included in gauner1986's or older kernels that is missing or modified in other kernels (like MDJ's 10.4OC)?

I think you're right. If you stick with a Cyanogen 6.1 Froyo build it should work. I am running NexusHD2-Froyo v1.9G NAND by tytung and it works fine with PowerAmp in case that helps.
CMYLXGO's BlueTopia v1.0.6n and the rest of his should work if you are looking for a Desire HD base.
PRJ kernel should work too...

Right! i am using CM7 with mdj kernel 10.4 it not working, then i change the kernel now it work like a charm .

Wiimote working on CM7 - what about DArky imp?>

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/12218-wii-controller-bluetooth/
I noticed a few peeps have their Wiimotes working on the CM7 releases for Galaxy S.
I would love to get this working on my Galaxy(play mario 4 again till my thumbs bleed!)
but I am really loving my DArky Rom.
Can anyone envision a way to intergrate the BT or Kernal from CM7 into a DArky Rom?
I dont understand where the system calls its bluetooth stack from. Isn't this the Radio ? Or is this in the Kernal or something?
I dont mind starting again, just loving the stable rom complete with all my apps.
Any insight would be great.
Thanks all

[Q] Stable Honeycomb witn USB gamepad support

Hello.
I was wondering if anybody knows for sure of a custom ROM that has USB gamepad support? I have been trying pretty much all the ones in XDA and its hit or miss. I found Galaxy Soup works but its beta and the camera doesnt function.
I think the magic is in Motleys version three kernel. Maybe there is a Honeycomb ROM with that kernel?
Thanks for the time
