Hey,
I bought a pair of Nokia BH-604's today, and they work fine on my N95 8GB. I did the A2DP bluetooth hack on my N810, but can't get it working in Canola. It just sounds crappy.
I tried to go to home/user/.atabake, edit config and change from oms to mplayer like I'm supposed to, but whenever I try to go to home/user/.atabake it just says Permission Denied.
What am I supposed to do?

Alright, I downloaded Kagu.... but I haven't had a chance to install it yet.
Are these the proper instructions for using Kagu and A2DP? Do I have to do all of this?
kagu can use mplayer to play. mplayer works correct with a2dp.
1.Edit /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf
...
#Disable=Sink
....
[A2DP]
SourceCount=2
SBCSources=1
MPEG12Sources=0
2. Install 4 scripts:
a2dp
switchOnBT.sh
speedup
speeddown
3. create device using python script (http://wiki.bluez.org/wiki/HOWTO/AudioDevices)
import dbus
bus = dbus.SystemBus()
manager = dbus.Interface(bus.get_object('org.bluez', '/org/bluez'), 'org.bluez.Manager')
bus_id = manager.ActivateService('audio')
audio = dbus.Interface(bus.get_object(bus_id, '/org/bluez/audio'), 'org.bluez.audio.Manager')
path = audio.CreateDevice('00:11:22:33:44:55')
#audio.ChangeDefaultDevice(path) #change the device to be used by default
sink = dbus.Interface (bus.get_object(bus_id, path), 'org.bluez.audio.Sink')
sink.Connect()
4. start under user
a2dp firstrun
5. set kagu player - mplayer

#audio.ChangeDefaultDevice(path) #change the device to be used by default
sink = dbus.Interface (bus.get_object(bus_id, path), 'org.bluez.audio.Sink')
sink.Connect()
4. start under user
a2dp firstrun
5. set kagu player - mplayer

sink = dbus.Interface (bus.get_object(bus_id, path), 'org.bluez.audio.Sink')
sink.Connect()
4. start under user
a2dp firstrun
5. set kagu player - mplayer
1 install a2dp-support
2 pair headset.
3. Write down bluetooth address of headset
4. a2dp first run in xterm and enter the bluetooth address
5. then a2dp enable in xterm
6. run kaju- settings- player -mplayer
7. play.
But these are right off the head... u may want to check the a2dp thread.Those instructions u gave are very old.
And remember switch off the bluetooth on ur phone. I it doesnt worj the first time... follow the cycle again.
Hope it helps. Sorry i cant re read the thread because i have exams.

Alright sweet, I did the initial stuff mentioned in the first post, so I should be fairly close to listening to my new headphones once I do a few more things!
Thanks again!
I totally understand about exams also, I have mine next week, keep getting distracted though! haha

I never really liked kagu, and canola gives you all the media options. When I changed the.atabake file I used emelfm2. I think that's easier than using xterm. A2dp audio can sometimes not be smooth and cut out a little bit. But I found that if you have advanced power monitor installed, it lets you select the cpu policy and if you set it at performance it makes the audio a lot smoother.

Well, I will give kagu a try, and I will also attempt to change the file .atabake usin emelfm2.
Just curious, how is it easier to use than xterm (I've never used it, but I am downloading it right now)?
I'll look for advanced power monitor sometime soon also (didn't find it in the download section on this website)

I used to use it on my tablet before i had my n95 for listening to internet radio. But since the n95 also has the internet radio app... i stopped using a2dp on my tablet.
The problems being;
1. once u start a2dp u just cant touch the tablet. Browsing is impossible without the stream breaking.
2. Too cumbersome
3. I can do everything on the n95

Well, I picked the headphones up for a good deal, so I figured I would try them out on all my devices.
I was mainly hoping to use them with my N810 for JUST listening to music.... I mean like when I'm on public transit or in class or whatever and I just want to listen to music (not browse the internet or anything).
I don't use my N95 for media THAT much... but I guess if the A2DP support on the N810 is really that bad I will!
