Hi People,
I'm looking to get potentially 3 Bluetooth Headsets for XDAII (for staff)
And I don't want any moaning once I get them that the quality is bad
Could you post your personal experiences of ones you have purchased and are using please. Would like some recommendations if possible.
I have a Sony-Erricsson HBH-35. Works like a charm.
No rebonding, it reconnects wether you'r out of range, the phone or headset has been switched off etc...
I have a Motorola HS810.
It's nice and small (even with the boom open). The audio quality is excelent. However, what really nags me is that it takes too long to boot the device when you open the boom, so that in most occasions it takes too long to connect to the XDA and I can't pick up a call in time.
Also, sometimes it simply doesn't connect to the device after I pick up a call on the XDA and I can't transfer the call to the headset.
Anyone with the same problems with this headset ?
My HBH65 works absolutely perfectly with the XDA2. Original XDA2 radio & Bluetooth stack - just as it came out of the box. I *never* need to rebond the two devices, even if they're switched off, out of range or whatever, and I can walk around my (small) house using the headset and leave the XDA2 on the desk.
Only criticism is the battery life on the HBH65, which is pants. I have to charge it every other day, at best, without much useage.
Still, it's *very* comfortable and the sound quality and volume is good in quiet environments. In the car it's a struggle, but that could be because I have a car with a 6 litre engine and no exhaust silencers...
I have a Jabra 250
Works perfect, never any bonding, or lost call problems, and as set 250 minutes of standby time, very small, and looks really smart. After I bought one, my wife wanted one too.
Thanks for the response all, much appreciated !
I opted for the Sony-Erricsson HBH-35
I got them from expansys and got them the next day! .... they are great. The call quality is excellent. I think the boom helps to eliminate background noise as the mic doesn't have to be too strong.
Now i just need to go to the "using it" forum to find out how to use voice dialing :s
Logitech BT headset is the best !
I really like the Bluespoon Cameleon. Works very well. Only about $100. Much less obtrusive than other Bluetooth headsets. You can change it's colors, which is cool. It's much smaller and lighter than other headsets as well.
It was so good, that I thought I'd go one step further and get the Bluespoon Digital, which I just started using. The Bluespoon Digital seems to get the call transferred instantly (quicker than the Cameleon), and it's about the size as the end of my thumb.
I havn't had the chance to try out the automatic gain control (changes volume of speaker based on ambient noise), or the digital noise cancellation (blocks out slow moving ambient sound).. but those features sound mighty nice!
About bluespoon, I have a pb, seems really good when I make a call but impossible to use it when i receive a call, no transfer to the headset

What's a pb? With the Bluespoons, you press a button on the headset to transfer the call to it.
really doesn't work, dunno why !!!!!
If you have an advice, I'll really appreciate it
HB 35
I too Have the sony ericsson hb 35 top h/set well worth the investment

Did you try a hard reset of the Bluespoon? Also a soft reset according to the instructions in the manual? After a soft reset you'll have to recreate the bond.
Plantronics M3000 is the best one I could fine. Everyone would always tell me they couldn't hear me. The M3000 sounds very clear, connects as a Bluetooth Device and battery life is around 2 days.
Very small around the ear, no cords, or mess. I like it.
I have seen a few posts where people say they are using their own headphones with the HTC touch diamond. I have a great set of Bose headphones I bought a while ago. What do I need to buy to be able to use these with the phone, just to listen to my MP3's not the radio obviously.
Thanks,
Roy.
You can buy the RC E100 or a ExtUSB to 3.5mm adapter.
I'm using the RC E100 - it's really good. Although, the cable is very long and then add your headphone length to that and you end up with a VERY long cable.
So I cut mine, resoldered the wires, and then used heat shrink to make it all look nice. Happy camper now.
It took hours and did my head in though.
Thanks the RC E100 sounds good, I checked it out on EBay but they are only shipping from Hong Kong (I'm UK) and I dont fancy that. Where abouts did you pick yours up?

Do you use it on the diamond? Is it working properly (music controls especially)? I'm asking, because it's not listed as compatible accessory on htc.com.
I use it, i bought it from Expansys for about £23 with a £10 off voucher. Just buy one of the Kaiser or Touch ones, theyre all the same item just under a different name on the website.
It works fine, i have some sony earphones that are meant ot be used with a remote so they have a really short lead so they work great with this. You can just leave your diamond in your pocket in standby and listen to music using the controls on the remote.

LOL I have some Sony's that I had to cut and resolder, otherwise they whole thing was way too long. I ended up shortening the cable on the RC E100 too. That was difficult!
I'm very happy with the purchase though and using that plus some good headphones makes the diamond sound really good.
hi guys, i have a question about the rc e100 remote. if you are listening to music with it and the diamond is asleep (ie. screen is off). does adjusting the volume or changing tracks or whatever wake the screen up? for me this will be decider whether i get one or not.

Im glad to tell you no it does not wake the screen up. It acts like a perfect MP3 player, if you turn off the screen and then push buttons on the remote the device will look like nothing happened and the sceen will stay off while still respoding to button pushes.

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. exactly what i was hoping to hear. thanks m8.
My RC E100 remote arrived couple days ago and I'm using it with my nice Bose earphones. Have to say it works a treat, once I sorted out the bug with the Audio Booster, well just turned the dam thing off. "MAKE SURE YOU DON'T USE THE AUDIO BOOSTER" it's **** but i'm sure you knew that anyways.
I'm going to shorten the cable on the actual remote, plan to do that tomorrow (should be interesting!).
The only other things I'd like to do is maybe install that SRS WOW program, maybe then I can mess around with the music settings, but I've read this isn't working yet with the Diamond, anyone know another music equalizer I can install?
Oh and lastly I spent ages putting what music I wanted onto the internal memory of the phone. Making sure all the tracks we're under the correct artist and album etc. Problem is even tho through the phones explorer shows them as they should be, when looking through windows media player library only a handfull of the tracks are sorted into correct folders. I'e most of the tracks are just under "unknown" this is fairly useless as how am i meant to search for an album by a certain artist? Why aren't they all set-up the way they are in explorer mode? This is frustrating as it means 80% of my music is simply stored under unkonwn artist and then track name!
Anyone come across this on their hanset and knows a way around it?
Thanks guys, Roy.
speaking of mp3 playback, has anyone noticed that every 5 to 10 minutes or so, sound will skip or pause just for a split second. for me this happens on both the audio manager and on CorePlayer. it has also happened with the stock ROM my phone came with (1.34) and the current cooked ROM i am using. would appreciate it if someone knows a solution to this problem, i hope it's not because of the AudioBooster. as the Diamonds volume output is pissweak without it.
oh and Roy, i think the bug with audio booster, where there is a complete lack of bass and sound is all tinny like. was solved in 1.93 ROM.

Hi, can't say I've noticed the skipping part. But maybe I haven't listened to anything long enough, i'll keep my ears open.
Basically yeah to fix the audio booster thing which I had originally turned on while listening to the radio. All I did which I read on here was to turn on mp3 player and start listening. Goto audio booster and turn it off, then on and then off again and save. This as I know it disables the bug from the audio booster and it now sounds ace. Woule like to install a proper music equalizer if I can find one.
I hear all this stuff and have seen loads of threads about it but what actually is upgrading my ROM? Why would I want to change it? I have installed various Diamond Tweaks and Advance Configs etc to speed up performance and mess about with a few settings to suit my tastes.
Why would i want to install a new ROM?
Roy.

Yep it seems to be finally fixed. Now it is a proper (and pretty darn good!) mp3 player.
Just got the E100 remote for under £10 at http://www.order-bulk.com if anyone's interested. Have to pay with Paypal though.

Cheers for the link derinahon. With the compulsory recorded posting and insurance, it's still under £10 - cheapest I've seen anywhere
Okey, i havnt listened to music yet on my new diamond.
The batterytime sucks, how can i listen to music then? I will have to load it every second hour? (((((((

Hi,
I recently bought this nice bluetooth earphone (Sony Ericsson MW600) - because it was mentioned, it works great on Nexus One.
But I got a somehow strange problem:
when it is connected to the phone (at least, bluetooth settings say so), I can phone with this headset but I cannot listen to any music.
Settings say, it's connected to phone and media.
I tried enomthers and cyanogens latest roms.
Has anybody any idea, what is wrong?
edit: tested it with a SE v640i - works perfektly - must be an issue with the nexus/rom/whatever :-/
Thanks,
bastie
how did you buy them?
via ebay
it is unused and the package was not opened, too...
okay, after searching through the net for several hours - here's the solution:
it does not work, when wireless lan is turned on - for whatever reason
so:
first turn off wireless lan
then connect mw600 and play music
seems like bluetooth and wlan are blocking each other
Good to know. I just ordered one for 50 bux shipped when I preordered from mobilecityonline.com, which still is selling for the same price but now shipping is no longer free because it's no longer a preorder item. I figured its better than retail or ebay after my stint with a fake SE product a few years back. Thanks for the info!
One thing I learn is never buy bluetooth headsets or memory cards from ebay. 99.9% of them are fakes.

Hello Everyone,
kpjimmy, I ordered and received my MW600 from mobilecityonline.com too. They seem to have nice service.
How can we tell if we got a counterfeit device or not. I had problems in the past with serveral brands?
Did you find the instruction in the box were not detailed ?
I went to sony ericsson support page for the MW600, no user guide pdf file. Only the warranty pdf. I noticed for the other devices such as the DS205,DS970,DS980 there are user guide pdf files. Have you found one for the MW600?
Must say, I am impressed with the battery life. I took out of the box, charged for 8 hours as per instructions. Turned it on, paired it, turned on the FM radio with 100% volume. It went 10.75 hrs, even a few phone calls before dead. Did 3 full 8 hrs charges/10.75hrs to full discharges cycles.
Thank you,
Monnie
I have used the headset for a week or so and I must say it is an awesome little headset for the cash! I also have the plantronics 590A but that is for my personal home use, but the MW600 is great for the office or when you are out and about. I haven't taken any calls with the headset yet though.
As for this being possibly a fake headset? I have to say my last 'fake' headset was in the box, (wasn't sealed btw) and when used, the sound was too tinny like cheapo headsets you get at your local convenience store. This one I received from Mobilecityonline, in my opinion the real deal. The sound is nice and functions as it should. Very satisfied with the headset.
Anyone want a aliph icon? LOL kiddin...that's what I use when in the car.
Jimmy you work for SE? you haven't take any calls yet? and you used it for so long? or do you work for mobilecityonline.com? let me know what is your deal?
I hace one and very annoying problem with this headset . When i plug id to HD2 and turn on the WIFI , music freeze for a less then second and sound geting disorted and very thin (it sound like the music change frequency to very low. Anyone had this problem ?

I don't work for either. I am a BT and tech junkie . I have taken a call on the MW600 and all sounds fine and works great as expected. I have since use my Aliph Icon with the new A2DP drivers installed.
However, I also have gotten the BlueAnt S4. I have used this more than the MW600 and I have to admit I love the thing. It is truely handsfree and the sound is great, clear, loud and is truly handsfree.

You plug in? The MW600 does not need to be plugged in. The HD2 has A2DP. All you need to do is turn on your bluetooth and pair the phone with the headset. When you play the music with your bluetooth on, the phone should automatically connect to the headset and play wirelessly, no plugging in necessary. Please give us additional detail. Thanks!
my mw600 works great - 5.0.5.3 through froyo.
so the skip forward/back and play/pause buttons on this can control the music?
Because I've lost the original N1 remote and am looking for decent replacements.
Thanks
it controls music. display obviously doesn't show the track like it might if paired with a sony device however. touch volume slider is kinda annoying.

Same here !!!
Really annoying!
Just got it. Had a Nokia BH-103 before but it broke. On the Nokia the sound sometimes was getting faster or a bit slower from time to time but that did not annoy me that much, now i can hardly hear on song. even if i turn of wifi the issue remains. please please help. really was looking forward to use my new mw600 and now the expirence is ruined.
headset works great with ps3 and notebook even over "big" distance (can hear music in every room of my flat)
so i guess it's the devices fault
having a htc hero using villian rom 10.2
PLEASE HELP
SOLVED !!!!!
setting the cpu speed somehow messes up bluetooth audio transfare
disabled overclocking now works like a charm
I tried my friend's SE MH-100 which he uses for his Aino, but my N1 can't even find it via bluetooth. I ordered the MBS 200 which is a bluetooth speaker also from SE and I'm still waiting for it.
Any clue why it can't find the MH-100? Im afraid it wont be able to scan the MBS200's bletooth as well
UPDATE: It's working great
I ordered one from ebay just now because Sony Ericsson Canada is selling is for $99.99 (mobilecityonline sells it for $50 but charges $40 US for shipping too Canada...)
After reading stories about fake bluetooth, I am worried. How do I tell if the one I bought is genuine or not? I bought it from this seller: http://cgi.ebay.com/SonyEricsson-MW...ewItem&pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item1e5cfdeebe
I purchased one from mobilecityonline in person.
I don't really like the volume control, but I encounter a pairing problem with nexus one.
If I keep the pairing with the phone, it works 100%, but if I connect it to another device, it refuse to connect to nexus one again except I pair them again.
The battery is awesome though, I play 8 hours of wireless music and the battery doesn't run out.
Hi friends, i bought yesterday a bluetooth samsung hm1500 headset (2.1 bt + edr)
http://www.mytrendyphone.com/shop/samsung-hm1500-bluetooth-27371p.html
and i can't connect with tg01. The phone cannot detect it. I tried everything for hours , tried with all available roms but still nothing.
Can anyone help please ?
Use the traditional problem solving procedure
1) Test your new headset with another phone (friend, relative....)
2) Test your TG01 with another Bluetooth device
Good luck! Tell us the results
Motorola are the best
Bluetooth headphones are real fussy. Motorola's pretty much work with everything I've found.
Thanks friends for the replies, i send it back, doa, i tried with 3 other mobile phones and nothing with noone conected only with my laptop was possible to connect, very special bluetooth.
Has anyone found a bluetooth headset that one can have a decent conversation with others without having problems of not being heard loudly? I have two headsets, a cheap ebay hong-kong one and a Nokia BH-215. People complain hearing me very low with both. If i get away from the phone but within the bt radius things get even worse and don't get better even if i get close to the phone again. I think it's because of the phone and not the headset.
Did you try SRS 3 cabs install?
No but i used it once and i remeber that it messed up my bt connection. But that was back in 6.5.x rom. Maybe i''l give it a shot now that i'm on 6.1.

Hi Jonous,
I'm using it with the other radio - what was effectively the 'Italian' stock radio 0300.76
It's difficult to compare notes with this sort of thing remotely... but I'd confrm that there is 'some' degree of background noise present even on this high-end BT headset device when compared direct to a hard wired uUSB connection (into the same earphones - per my sig). Like any audio device, I'd recommend keeping the volume level on any element in the chain to < 60% in order to keep noise down.
DEspite the above, I'd regard the MW600 as a quite capable piece of kit in conjunction with the TG01 giving extra flexibility - but it is a trade-off to some extent with quality.

Hehe i feel like an idiot, i enbarked on an endless journey of flashing and flashing different radios and trying out the sound quality of each one cause bt headset is very important for me. When i got to 0300.76 suddenly sound was crystal clear! On the 1st test call. On the second call i was bearly heard, crappy sound again. Then it it struck to me...I remembered that sometimes when you press the answer call button of the headset the sound is transfered to the phone...I thought "no it can't be...if this is it i'm a real idiot!!!" And yes, when i pressed the button again sound was transfered to the headset and sound was magnificent! So the lousy sound i got with all other roms was because i was trying to be heard through the phone's micrphone which was some 2-3 away from me hahaha so other end of line heard little or nothing.
Well enough said, this headset is brilliant, loud n clear sound, caller id, fm radio everything! well almost, i wish it had vibration too but don't care, i'm happy with my buy! Thanks again

You are most welcome - I'm delighted you are up and running and happy with the S-E MW600 headset. There are so many variables with these things as well as the subjective element wjhen it comes to perceived audio quality that it is difficult to translate one person's experience to another. Great news
the Sony MW600 is really great !
But don´t forget to increase the bitrate of the streaming codec.
I modified/added this values in HLKM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A2DP\Settings
BitPool 65
MinSupportedBitPool 65
MaxSupportedBitpool 65
SampleRate 48000
SubBands 8
Blocks 16
Allocation 1
UseJointStereo 1
Unfortunately Track names are not submitted like with SE or some HTC phones
Hi Friends!!!
I have also the same problem with a BT car.
And the problem is like it´s been described (sound very loud in the microphone)....
I remember that in my I780, I changed some settings (don´t remember if it was in Hardware or registry).
Anyone had a solution?
I want a wireless headphone or earphone for the Desire, that I can use for music, radio, answering calls, when I'm at the Gym.
What are the best recommendations. Thanks.

That looks like a great headset and from Handtec its not that pricey. However the Motorola S9 is very expensive but also sweatproof. cant decide
why should u want it sweatproof? I've got in ear plugs so they don't suffer from sweat atleast that is my experience with in earp plugs.
i got the jabra street last week.. it comes with own headphones but they are rubbish.. thankfully you can use your own.. today will be my first day in the gym with it so will let you know how i get on
cheers,

As I said I want it for the gym... trust me it has to be sweat/water proof
I might get the Motorola S9 because it looks good too.
About the gym, I work out alot to but still no problems with the in ear plugs but now back to the test that I would preform.
Ok now starting the test @ 11.14 and my phone is @ 98% and locked the phone so it's just using bluetooth and playing music I've got some widgets and auto updates that update every 3 hours so they won't have that much influense also 3g is turned off when I lock my phone so u know .
So for the overview(End will be added when I'm done with testing)
Time Battery
11.14 98%

Time Battery
11.14 98%
12.14 93%
So drop from 5% listening in 1 hour so your phone will outlast the battery of the SE MW-600 which is 8 hours so over 8 hours of listening you will get 40% drop.
Hope i informed you enough .

Thank you very much, that's great.
Have a look at Backbeat 903 from plantronic.
Of all the reviews i have seen people love them. There is even some Wrestler guy reviewing them on Youtube of how he loves them. I have mine on order and should receive them in a week or so.

As I said I want it for the gym... trust me it has to be sweat/water proof
I might get the Motorola S9 because it looks good too.

I have a S9 and works very well in sweat situation, doesnt' fall, the quality is good enough for a gym/biking situation. However if you have small ear cavity (dont know the specific name for them) may be sore after some minutes but with time you the region get less sensitive.
One more thing, it's better to leave the phone in a almost static position, ie in a armband, on the treadmill because if you put in your pocket while running the constant moving makes the sound come and go. It's seems that occurs with most of bluetooth headsets.

That looks like a nice one I will look for that.
I currently have one surround headphones from Plantronics 777 and Im very happy with it. The mic is great quality too.
Thanks for the suggestions.

treadmills or cycling machines have a place to put your stuff like your phone, MP3 player etc, in front of you
Radio
You wont be able to listen to radio with any wireless headphone headset, because earphones cable works as an antenna for radio reception.

Thats a good point for those who may want to listen to radio.
I personally only want it for music and taking calls.

Not true the Sony Erricons MW-600 has a builtin FM radio
I have the backbeat 903's. I love them, sound quality is good, Mic is clear even with background noise. You can still hear what is going on around you, which saves getting run over when crossing roads. You have to store them carefully though. Mine are in for a warranty repair right now, left speaker stopped working but I used to just keep them in my pocket so probably my fault. Controls work and battery life is good. People do mock the look of them but who cares?
