Can someone please confirm that their BT Audio still locks up after about 1hr? Yesterday after installing GB i have noticed that my BT audio locked up and phone says it is connected by no audio comes out. This is the same behavior i have on the Froyo version. The only way to release or fix it is a reboot. I really need BT to work i hate holding phone to my ear. Anyway can someone please confirm that theirs is doing the same thing. I have BlueAnt Q2. I also have another BT and i do believe the froyo version did the same thing with the other BT so i am sure it will happen with the GB version.
PS: the other thing that does not work with the BT is uploading contacts on the BT. This worked fine with Froyo.
can anyone confirm their BT Audio is working for more than 1-3hrs?. I am re-testing and will keep updating on what i find out.
UPDATE: BT has been on for exactly 2hrs and still working. I am currently testing it with the Jabra BT3030. I will report back.
PS: i have made and received calls using this BT just incase.
I've found that for when my BT locks up I can disable it then re-enable it, but it takes between 5-10 tries of re-enabling it before it takes. Probably faster to reboot, but I've had an aversion to rebooting ever since using the G1.
Bluetooth seems to be working better for me with this update. It has not yet failed to pair with my cheap Sony head unit, both handsfree and A2DP.
A2DP in particular used to suck. More than half the time when I'd start my truck the music icon would be missing from the Sony's display, but so far this build's A2DP seems to work right every time just like with my N1.
Navigation instructions through my car stereo FTW!
UPDATE: it is now 6hrs and 32mins into this testing and so far it is holding steady with the Jabra BT3030. I will keep on testing and report back.
PS: I am really amazed how well optimized the battery now is with this GB build.

I am not about to rule that out just yet... Waiting to see what happens once i get past 8hrs. I will test Q2 next. so far i am really impressed with the battery optimization on this GB. Once i start freezing things or use one of those custom roms i am sure battery life will be even better.
PS: i wonder if they is any firmware update for the Q2?

I have a q2 and was connected yesterday for about 3 hours without issue. Was able to make and receive calls during that time without bluetooth disconnects. I did have a disconnect when I first updated (without rebooting), but after I rebooted my bluetooth worked fine.

Were you able to upload your contacts? Could you do me a favor and leave it on all day for as long as you can to see if it locks up or you get NO audio. I am about to begin the test for the Q2. So far the Jabra BT3030 seem to be working just fine. Now 8hrs and 20mins and no issue.
I have a Q2 also and I'm constantly turning off and on bluetooth and the headset itself. etc etc, reboot.. damn. I changed from a Jawbone ERA (which was having issues also)
Using the EB 105gb leak rom atm and was using the stock g2x w/faux uv kernel earlier.
I have a Q2 that locks up on EB Froyo, but I love EB Froyo and the only reason I would update to GB is to fix the BT problem with Q2. Please let us know if your Q2 test is positive.
My q2 would not transfer phone book and has lost audio a few times today. Its more stable than stock but the previous gb leak worked perfect for me. Let me also mention that Bluetooth works perfect on cm7, phone book also transfers as well. I see myself going back to cm7 soon mainly because of Bluetooth.

Which rom? Or just straight CM7 (which build too? or any/all?) ?

I'm on a stinkin Wired Headset atm, so I'm quite interested. (0.0)b
Well guys, i can almost confirm it does lock up or looses audio. After over 9hrs testing the Jabra BT3030 i had NO issue with that BT. Charged phone up to 97%, reboot the phone and added the Q2. 1hr and 30min into testing it locked up or lost audio. This was after multiple calls and playing few songs just to make sure i haven't lost audio.... I don't know what to make of it. I don't know if it is the Q2 or our phone. One thing that i noticed and saw this on Froyo as well as other GB roms is that when you turn off the BT on the phone and try to re-enable it in like 2-3secs its like it is still trying to shutdown or something. After about 1-2mins it is back to normal....
As far as not being to transfer contacts to Q2 i can tell you that i spoke to BlueAnt tech support tonight and found out that if you have contacts on your sim card, it confuses the hell out of Q2. This wasn't the case for other roms that i tested or Froyo. I ended up taking my sim card out and guess what, it uploaded the contacts to Q2. Anyway i am thinking about taking my Q2 back to AT&T to see if i can exchange it for another one to see if that will solve this problem seeing that i bought it December of 2010.
Please i ask others that have the Q2 to leave BT and Q2 on for over 4-5hrs and see if it stays connected.

I dont need to wait 4hrs to tell you, my problem with it is exactly what you described.
On another note.
Least I only got my q2 a week ago, I can still return it to Bestbuy this weekend.
Dunno what else to get that has a2dp though. Other than jawbone(have/had them all) what headset on the market would anyone suggest or recommend? I had the Discover 975 worked great until I lost it, no a2dp though.. Had the Bose which was fun, but no a2dp either... any suggestions?
That and of course possibly switch to CM7.1 rc1? Except no A2dp.. which defeats the purpose of the whole paragraph above. haha.
What are you leaning toward, Cenwesi?

Well i know for sure the Jabra BT3030 works but does not have the phonebook feature so i am leaning towards it. I really think people with A2DP really need to test theirs and then we will know for sure if it is the Q2 or is the the phone or software. Very hard to tell right now.
Lol, looks like it just locked up again. This time more like 2hrs.

Hows the sound quality with the 3030? How well does the other person hear you from where it normally hangs if you wear it around your neck? Hows the noise cancellation and the quality of your connection to your phone?

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.
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,
mick

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)

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 .

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.

You wont be able to listen to radio with any wireless headphone headset, because earphones cable works as an antenna for radio reception.

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?
anyone out there can fix the issue when headset is plugged into 3.5 jack and a call comes in and you can just take the call instead of unplugging the headset?
Thanks,
I guess nobody is bothered by this.... strange

my og droid and droid 2 and incredible did not do this. I was able to take the call with an aux cable plugged in. The mic would work and I was able to use my phone over my car speakers. The thunderbolt disables the mic if the aux cable is not 4 pole, as in has a mic. The only solution I have found is to buy http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...49206&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_2617wt_1141
I used this in both my cars with the thunderbolt and it works perfectly.
Is this something that can be fixed by the ROM/Kernel developers?
Here's a fix!
Okay guys so here's a work around that I've been using for a while and I don't really remember where I saw it so I'm sorry for not giving proper credit. So you go to Home>Settings>Call>TTY mode> and pick "TTY VCO". The only negative thing is that you're gonna have a few extra icons up there in the notification bar but you get used to them right away.
Does that disable the ability to change in-call volume?
No issue here on Das Bamf Remix 1.7
I've been running Das Bamf Remix and since a few versions ago (1.6 I believe) I have not noticed this issue -- calls work fine with headphones.
I'm pretty damn sure this was fixed, or supposed to be fixed with MR1. Ever since I upgraded to an MR1 based ROM, the issue went away for me. It also fixed video chat. The issue is related to something software based with having 2 noise cancelling mics. Basically, they were cancelling each other out.
Can anyone PM me on how to get needed software to root plz? If asked a few with no responses. Tried one click option but cannot get galaxysense Rom because link 404's

I just tried this on bamf 2.0-5 and I still have the problem. The mic turns off when headphones are plugged in.
This has been addressed, but not thoroughly. It works sometimes, but not all the time and its very irritating when it doesn't work. Maybe when the June 30th update comes in. That's wishful thinking though. My dinc, iphone, droid, all the way back to my touch pro had this functionality.
This has been strange for me to and I posted about it in the bamf kernel thread. Some headphone mics work and some don't. The same mic that doesn't work on my phone works on other non htc phones.

I've run stock, rooted, Das BAMF 1.4 - 2.0.5, and preview4. Every single one cuts off the mic if I have headphones in. Very frustrating. I took to buying headsets with built-in mic. Unfortunately, they all seem to last about 3-4 weeks before going bad and randomly hitting play/next/back on my audio book app. I've gone back to standard headphones and would LOVE to be able to leave them in and use the built-in mic.
I've been having bluetooth problems with this phone since day 1 & I'm wondering if it's just my phone or if anyone else is having the same experience. No matter what rom or headset I use, I get a craptastic connection. I don't have any problems pairing devices, but I can't get 10 feet away from the phone without it disconnecting and I can't even turn my head without the audio cutting out. It also randomly disconnects for no reason & sometimes won't reconnect until I reboot. This has happened with every rom I've tried & every headset too. I've bought & returned multiple headsets thinking it was just my Blueant, but it happens with every one.
Could I have a faulty unit or does the bluetooth on this phone really suck this bad? I listen to podcasts & music all day long at work so I need to have a decent connection. Opinions needed please.
I think it may be a bad phone.
I have and used the following bluetooth devices:
Plantronics 590A
Jawbone Icon and Era
BlueAnt S4 which I use in the car. And auto connects before I sit down to drive when I have it on.
Sony Ericsson MW600
And Jabra Pro 9470 (office phone setup that connects to my phone via bt)
All connects without a problem. Have you done a titanium backup and perform a factory reset? And after the reset use titanium backup to restore app and data only and leave the system settings alone. You can restore the wifi stuff if you like. From there that's like a fresh install. Hope that works for you.
Yeah I've done many, many wipes & fresh installs & nothing helps. I don't have any problems connecting, I just have problems STAYING connected & listening to audio. It cuts out constantly without me even touching the phone. I've never had such shoddy bluetooth on any other device.
*sigh* Looks like I may be doing an exchange...

Well before leaving the store...if you are going to a brick and mortar to do the exchange, bring the bt headset with you and try it out there and try to replicate the problem with a new phone.
I do not have range problems but I don't usually have my phone more than 5 ft way from me when talking on it via bt.
I have a replacement on the way for bluetooth problems,people complained of a horrid background noise and the range was maybe 8 feet before major static would kick in

My BT sounds like crap! People say it sounds like I'm in a wind tunnel or they can't hear me that well, when they speak to me it cuts in and out.
This is when I connect to my Parrot BT in my truck. I know its not the Parrot system because my HD2 works fine with it.

I have a Dual car stereo & now that I think about it, everyone says they can't hear me even though I installed the mic on the side column & it's no more than a foot from my face at any time. Aargh this is so annoying. Freaking $600 phone & my damn $25 RAZR from Big Lots has better bluetooth.
If I bring it to the store, would they exchange it for me? I ordered it directly from T-Mobile, I didn't get it in a store.

No you will have to call T-Mobile and do a warranty exchange. I have no problems with BT on my phone at all.

a few threads about bluetooth problems
So whats the deal? Has anyone been able to fix the BT problems with this phone yet?
Can we flash a different BT.apk file or something?
Somebody by now should have some answers I would think.
My parrot system in my truck suck ass with this phone. Always cutting in and out.
Streaming audio is fine its the talking to people I'm have problems with.

I use this with my blueant s4 without an issue and experience no cutting in and out. However, I have been running MIUI and now running sense-o-maniac 3.5 and I have no issues.

I'm running the latest ARHD w/sense 3.5
horrid bluetooth sound quality
it seems a lot of people have been having issues with the bluetooth sound quality. i have mine paired with a motorola HF850 car kit, which has bluetooth v1.1, or something like that. i wonder if the problem is with backward compatibility, as people seem not to have as many issues with newer devices. would flashing a different radio potentiall help this problem? is it possible to downgrade the bluetooth version with a custom ROM? any other thoughts on ways to address this issue?
Anyone else having issues with BT headset dropping the connection occasionally!
I'm using cataclysm latest and a Motorola flip elite.
Happens every other day.
Makes me wonder if I should use a KRT16S since the stock ROMs are all KRT16M?

No issues with drops, just way too loud but I think that is only affecting stereo headsets. I'm running cataclysm with franco's kernel.

Maybe it's just my headset..... Or kernel (faux).
Unlikely it's hardware issue with my phone.
Everything is so new that it will be a few months until bugs are worked out.
I get drops/skips all the time when listening to music over bluetooth, probably at least once a day. It just cuts in and out for 30 seconds or so and then settles down and works fine. I don't have another bluetooth device to test it with so I don't know if it's my phone, or the bluetooth headset. Anyone else have a similar problem? I'm hoping it's not a hardware issue... Did on straight out of the box, stock software and on DroidKang 6/7.

This is essentially what is happening with mine - drops connection for 20 seconds and reconnects by itself.

Have you tried with another bluetooth device to see if that might be the source?

Works fine connected to my car, although I haven't had it connected for as long as my headset which is on most of the day.

Is your's a mono headset as well?
I've had this on other phones, it's a common Android bug and people are forever moaning about it on other forums, but the Nexus bluetooth is perfect on my stock phone. Did read Franco's kernal had messed this up again so looks like something the devs either introduce or more likely remove to save power as that's a common claim they make.

I THINK it's stereo. It's a Kensington LiquidAux

I had the problem on a bone stock phone, fresh out of the box. Never had this problem on other phones with this "headset"
