Hello,

Can anyone confirm that the Nokia N91 supports the new A2DP Bluetooth profile?

Thanks

Interesting last post from lovecat in that discussion at the Nokia Developers Forum...

"Yes, a company called i-tech ships a small app with its stereo bluetooth headsets "MSI BluePlayer", which adds A2DP functionality to any S60 phone and therefore allows to stream MP3's in stereo. Unfortunately this appears to be a brand specific solution. At least it did not work with my Anycom stereo headset...
It seems like a bit of a pity that Nokia itself is not offering a similar software add-on. Maybe this will change once the first Nokia Stereo BT-headset hits the market... For the time being, however, I feel that Nokia owners will have to face the fact that their devices lag technically behind in terms of A2DP funcionality..."

Now if Nokia could develop an add on piece of software to add A2DP Bluetooth profile to S60 Symbian phones that would be a real hit imho

i have seen these headphones, they got a pretty bad pasting off the press. nokia does something similar, the BH-601. it seems to come with a bluetooth adapter for use with a pc etc so you can listen to music etc.

i guess it being a bluetooth headset, you could also use its built in mic for skype, cs etc...

i-tech do a rather cool pulg in bluetooth adapter. its sits in between your headphones and your stereo, when a call comes in on your phone it stops the stereos sound and lets you anserw the call.

steve_p - I agree with you. Until Nokia (sure they will not) release a software with A2DP support this seems to work for some Serie-60 phones; http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/download/dld/spt_dld_detail.php?UID=619&kind=8

Haven´t tested it myself though ;-)

Hi,

currently Nokia N91 supports only following Bluetooth 1.2 profiles:

- BIP-ImagePush
- DUN-GW
- FT-Server
- Headset-AG
- OBEX
- OPP-Client
- OPP-Server
- SIM Access-Server
- HandsFree-AG (1.0)

So currently no others :-(

The new 8Gb version of the N91 DOES support the A2DP profile; is it possible to Nokia to release a new firmware for the 'normal' N91 so that it supports A2DP too, since the only difference in hardware is the colour and the bigger hard disk drive?

I think it's really a shame that a true MP3-phone like this still doesn't support it...
