Is it possible to make bluetooth headset as a wireless mic? I would like to use the mic on my BT headset in conjunction with an Audio recorder to record lectures.
I know we can port music into the BT headset. But is it possible to port the mic to the PPC?
Good idea really. As long as I know, the headset really hooks up only during calls
I too am looking to do something like this, but haven't gotten very far yet. Please post any findings. I want to have a better mic to record live music during practices without having to carry a separate portable recorder. So far I have found the internal mic overloads easily and turning on the AGC still doesn't bring down the level enough and has a hard limiter action. So a wireless mic is the next thought. So far I have liked the Resco software the best for audio recording, though I found that mp3 format doesn't work on my FUZE and calls don't come through during playback.
Can anyone verify if darfri is correct that the mic in the headset is only available during a call? Could anyone with a BT headset verify or test if recording uses the internal or BT headset mic? Thanks, I haven't bought my BT headset yet. What I choose depends on how I use it.

Only when you receive or make a call, the voice then, will be transferred to the buletooth headset. My question is: is it possible to active it at other time other than makeing call? Thus we can use our Voice Dial softwares and listen music from XDA II.
It only can transfer the voice during the phone call to BT headset. I think O2 need to modify the Bluetooth driver to support more function on BT section (like iPAQ PPC, compaq updated the BT Driver to support listen the music on BT Headset).
Hope can heard O2 to modify the BT driver very soon, otherwise my Bt headset for O2 is not very useful !
I think except voice command, there is no missing fuction for using BT headset right now, since the quality of the speaker is horrible for listen music.
I really don't know why everyone asking for listen MP3 with BT Headset with XDA2. Is that people really enjoy listen music with one ear and low qaulity?
The XDA II has the ability to automatically answer a call after a variable number of rings to be set. However, I believe that this option only functions with the headset plug installed and then probably the BT headset won't work. Or does anyone has another idea?
Is it possible to change the register, so you can automatically transfer the call without having the plug in?

Well some people would like to have audio via Bluetooth to be able to hear Tomtom navigator over the speakers ?
Also, the SPEAKER of the XDA might be bad, that doesn't mean the audio out is bad. With a good speaker or headset quality could be al lot better...
If you use the XDA Adaptor Jabra kit for the XDA1 in the earphone socket it works fine, but if you use the headset with the direct bluetooth connection, then it doesn't.
Bluetooth Music ?
I believe that the bandwith of a Bluetooth Audio connection is far to limited to support anything resembling HiFi, not much point in listening to MP3 music that way.
For TomTom, or my Korean Language MP3 tutorial files, it should be fine though.
Luckily, the speaker is far louder than on my IPAQ 5450 going on sale, so I don't really need external speaker for TomTom.

Obvious, your not useing any of the build-in BT functions are you .
You're just getting wired audio out from the XDA/MDA. You could do that with the XDA I also, i didn't buy and XDA II for that !
Is there any possibility to use bluetooth clips (Motorola S605, SE MW600, Nokia AD-57 etc.) as mic for answering calls and controlling player (play, pause, next, previous) and using wired headphones connected DIRECTLY to mobile phone in order to use high quality 3.5mm headphones instead of listening through them over bluetooth and having this ****ty sound? Thanks in advance.
Yes, for bluetooth for sure.
Well just to be sure - I connect wired headphones to SGS directly (not to the bluetooth clip 3.5mm hole), pair the bluetooth clip with SGS, start player and listen to music through headphones and have ability to start-stop player by bluetooth clip buttons. When the call comes I hear it in headphones and start-stop player or push call answer button on bluetooth clip. After pushing answer button I hear calling person's voice in headphones but talk to the bluetooth mic. After call is ended I can start-stop playing music again by bluetooth buttons. This is 100% tested or it's is appeared to be working? Thanks.
Could anyone confirm my last post? Thanks.
Bump any answer?
Just tried, no go sorry.
If you could find an AVRCP profile device without A2DP or mono-bluetooth output it might work, but I don't expect any exist.
Are there any good in-ear headphones with working previous/next buttons to control next/previous track and volume in any music player?
Hi well I've been using the Altec Lansing BackBeat 903 Bluetooth Headset for about 3 months now and that has all the features your looking for plus they sound damn good as well.
I use the stock headphones with winamp, and double tap the pause button and it skips to the next track
But for a real solution with back.. you could get one of the little reciever thingies with a 3.5 jack, so you get wireless + controls + any headphone you like ^_^. But there could be some quality loss if its cheap..
Motorola's s9-HD also have theses foncions enabled.
Thanks for the replies. Those two seem to be ear-hugging types, are there any with regular design?
the best would be to use the Nokia remotes that came with the n95 and others. But apparently it doesn't work since the layout inside the jack are not the same between Samsung and Nokia... too bad
I have a question about this topic, I tried to use the apple in-ear headphones with the mic and the volume buttons on my SGS but when i fully plug it into the jack, theres no sound.... but if i leave it out abit then it works fine.... Do u guys know what is going on?
Any Bluetooth headset supporting A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile : For Stereo audio) and AVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control Profile) should work. There are plenty of BT headsets out there. Search for A2DP Bluetooth headsets (if they have media player controls then the chances are they support AVRCP too).
I use a Bluetooth clip, it gives a certain amount of wireless freedom and the ability to use any 3.5mm headphone. If you already have a good pair of headphones you like then a BT clip is perhaps the best way to go.
Here is what I use (Motorola S605):
With a display (SonyEricsson WM600 ):
Both of them have a built in Stereo FM radio as well, if you listen to radio that could come in handy (since the radio on SGS is mono ).
EDIT: One last thing, Audio quality over Bluetooth is slightly lower compared to a wired connection. This is due to the compression codec used in Bluetooth transmission. However, the difference depends entirely on your expectation of sound quality and the quality of your audio files. For example if you are an average user who is happy with a pair of $25 head/earphones listening to MP3s encoded at 128kbps then you won't notice a difference. But if you are an audiophile having $100+ headphones listening to 256kbps+ encoded MP3s then you’ll definitely notice a difference.

I don't think it works like that, but I have to check to confirm.

When you are not using BT audio, I doubt the player will respond to BT player controls.

I dont think you can split the mic and headset function like that, either you use the BT for both mic and headphone or not at all. (unless someone modifies the driver). But again, something I have to check to confirm.
For basic call and volume controls something like this might work.
Here is another alternative, but no mic (not released yet either).

Very helpful, purchasing from ebay as we speak, im sick of not being able to switch song whilst cycling...
Just a question really, do you just use the standard samsung music player?

I like these, thanks.
How does this things work? Do you plug anything to the usb port or do you just enable blutooth and play? Also can you use previous/next buttons while the screen is locked? Can you do these with the default player or do you need anything like WidgetLocker and add the player to the lock screen?
Also are there any wired versions of these?
anyone know of an app or other way to get call audio through stereo bluetooth receiver? Most people want to go the other direction and get their music through ear piece or in car bluetooth calling. I want to use my stereo bt audio receiver to accept the mono audio from calls as well. This way i could use the phone hands free when connected to my stereo.
I found this discussion which indicates its not going to work. Interesting though cause i would think itd be an easy thing to just force the call audio through

I was wondering if and how to use a Bluetooth speaker with mic a two way intercom (speaker and phone as each end)? I want to be able to listen in another room and be able to talk through the device also. Ideas? I currently have a small portable speaker with mic that I can stream audio from the phone to.
