A2DP Enabler updated. Ads were removed.

If you still use A2DP I've got a good news for you. I just posted an 1.3 update which removes Quattro advertisements. They didn't work anyway, since Quattro were purchased by Apple. This also removes annoying CoreLocation warning and white rectangle at the bottom of the main form.

Regarding future development and USB Drive. I still do not have any time to respond to suport enquiries and have to warn anyone who will try to use that this application that it was development on 2.x.x firmware and probably have issues on modern devices.

If anyone have connection problem to apt.dmytro.me please drop me e-mail, I am keep an eye on the server, but sometimes it fails.

A2DP Enabler updated

I have just updated A2DP Enabler, an application which enabled A2DP profile on original iPhone 2G. he primary goal for this update is to disable it for non iPhone 2G devices.


The update is also resolves a problem with "paired devices" list which sometimes doesn't populated properly.  The update is optional, if A2DP works properly on your device you do not need to update  but shouldn't hurt at the same time :)

Requires original iPhone 2G with iPhone OS 3.0 or higher. It doesn't work on 2.2.1 firmware and never will be.

A2DP Enabler can be downloaded from apt.dmytro.me repository

A2DP Enabler Released (1.0.1)

I just released a small update to the A2DP Enabler application,  the application which enables A2DP Bluetooth profile on iPhone 2G (also known as original iPhones, iPhone Edge, simply iPhone).

The biggest change is a version number to force Cydia update expired versions around a world.  In fact a released version of A2DP Enabler was available in repository since 1st of December, but looking into my Inbox it seems it wasn't noticed by many users.

If you have updated it to the 1.0 released 1st of December - there is no reason to update it another time.

Released version removes beta expiration only.

A2DP Enabler. FAQ and short instructions

Sometimes I am getting e-mails asking about instructions how to use A2DP Enabler.  So step by step guide:

A2DP Enabler for iPhone 2G (original iPhone)

Have a good news for original iPhone owners, you can use Bluetooth Stereo headsets with your iPhone now.

Bluetooth Stereo Profile (A2DP) and Remote Control Profiles were available for iPhone 3G starting from firmware 3.0, but wasn't available for original iPhone. This tiny application A2DP Enabler fixes this.

Technically it should be compatible with any A2DP Headset, but since it seems iPhone BT module is quite weak RF signal, I'd recommend trying few headsets to check what fits you. Lennie from http://a2dp.info agree to recommend best headsets from her collection, but until this review complete please post your experience here.

iPhone and A2DP. Why there is no Softick solution yet?

Softick is known for their A2DP for Palm OS devices (Palm Treo, Centro), less known a Mac OS X version of the same application (Softick Audio Gateway for Mac OS X) and we've been often asked why we still doesn't release A2DP for iPhone.

iPhone and Bluetooth

Did you known that iPhone Bluetooth Stack shuts down WiFi during discovery? I didn't. I suspect that any Bluetooth activity will terminate WiFi activity. So you will not be able to listen to the Internet radio using A2DP headphones using iPhone.

Yeah.
