Using Beats headphones by Dr.Dre with Omnia 7? - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I intend to get either the Solo, Solo HD or the Studio by Dr.Dre (MONSTER).
Now my Omnia 7 NEVER detects ANYTHING with Bluetooth and apparently WP7 also doesn't allow the use of buttons on headphones etc.. So if i do get any of the mentioned headphones, will I be unable to use the buttons on them?
"Studios come with an additional Monster iSoniTalk™ headphone cable with built-in call answer button and microphone so you can easily stop the rock and start the talk." Would I be able to use the buttons on the Studios if I use the cable?
thanks guys, Abz

Well I have the solo HD and the new limited edition studios.And the volume button will not work but for my HTC Arrive(7 Pro) I can skip track by double clicking the middle button.But my friend HTC Titan can skip track by double clicking the middle button the the headphones.Only thing that works in my HTC Arrive is the middle button will pause/resume it for music playback.

So some of the controls dont work? Hmm...How many buttons are there on the headphone that are SUPPOSED to work with the phones? And you know the ControlTalk cable? Do the buttons and mic on that work? Can you use the Solo headphones via BlueTooth? LOL and just ONE more question, do you reckon all the controls would work if the headphones were connected to the phone via a A2DP or BlueTooth adapter? Or is it something to do with WP7 and the OS restrictions?
Thanks a lot dude

Well the volume button will not work since they made for iDevices.The mic works on SOME windows phone(Doesnt work on my HTC Arrive) but on any samsung windows phone and HTC Titan the mic works.Not sure about LG windows phone.And yes if you use A2DP or a bluetooth adapter that has controls will work.I use the sennheiser bluetooth headphones and it has 5 buttons on the earcup(volume up,down.next track,back track and pause) and they all work.I recommend to either get the New beats wireless that use bluetooth so the controls will work

Hmmm..so because my Omnia 7 is by Samsung, the MIC will work. "Studios come with an additional Monster iSoniTalk™ headphone cable with built-in call answer button and microphone so you can easily stop the rock and start the talk." So the ANSWER BUTTON and the MIC will work without the BT adapter?
And did is bluetooth built into your Sennheiser headphones? And can you recommend any Bluetooth adapters that might enable the controls on the Beats?
Thanks dude,

SONY Bluetooth Stereo Problems. Help please

I have recently purchase a SONY DR-BT20NX stereo wireless headset that is SUPPOSED to work as a hands free head set too. It's not behaving and wondered the following:
Does anyone run one of these and can advise?
Are there know problems with BT Stereo headsets on the Trinity that require tweeks?
It seems to be OK when playing music but when set as a hands free unit the phone will not ring, it will only sound in the earphones. It will not respond to an INCOMMING call only an outgoing one. NONE of the advance functions work when making or taking a call so I have to use the buttons on the PDA!
When used as a stereo headset it does seem to stop start and pause music ok from the button on the headset, and even skip to the next track. But as mentioned, NO functions work from the button on the BT headset when a using the phone, let alone the advance functions the thing is supposed to offer.
This is the second unit I've tried as I returned the first one to the supplier as I thought it was faulty as it was do too many stupid things.
Thoughts chaps...?
Sorry not much help with your specific model but I can report that the Trinity works well with the SonyEricsson HBH-DS970 both for audio and to manage phone calls. All buttons work properly.
Are you sure your model supports the Handsfree BT profile? I thought all phones and phone accessories were part of the SonyEricsson joint venture portfolio and Sony would not produce phone accessories under its own brand.
Read this, Sony BT20NX worked seamlessly (both A2DP and AVRCP) on Wizard :

@Anonimo
I did think the same way you are, until i see it myself on a store shelves... I really don't understand why either...
Anyway both DS970 and BT20NX have necklace design... or you may called it "gene"

I tried this in one of the stores and found that it was NOT working properly with my Trinity (WM6 Rom). It was skipping horribly. Gave up after 5mins of trying. The square design of the center piece makes it looks like it came from the 90s.
Anyway, I tried the http://www.itechdynamic.com/en/products_spec.asp?cid=2&pid=02050 I-Clip Radio and it worked out of the box (Flawlessly). Even the Cyberion Voice commander (for handsfree dialing through wireless bluetooth) works beautifully. Bought it after 10mins of trying, used it for 5 days now ... no regrets! It comes with a 3.5mm audio socket so you can pair it to your favourite Sony EX headphone or the over priced Shure headphone. Sound quality is unbelievable. Try it ...
Just wondering if MIZZO1628 eventually got Trinity working with the Sony DR-BT20NX earphones? I really like the look of these, and am willing to do some reg hacking if necessary - but not if its going to be a dead end...
I also have the Sony BT headphones, and they have always been a problem with every rom (HTC Wizard included) that I have used.
I nearly always must edit the registry to listen to music, and the phone call function only works for outgoing calls.
I should have known better than to buy something with 'Sony' on it, but there was a recommendation elsewhere in this forum.

HD2 stops playing in standby, 3.5 mm headphone + microphone problem

Hello!
I bought a HD2 a last week. I noticed 2 problems during playing audio:
1. Music stops in standby mode after last track ends.
2. I used my own 3.5 mm headphone (not headset, so it has no built in microphone) and when I got a call nobody could hear me. Can I use this time the device built in microphone somehow?
Please help me solve this problems!
Thanks in advance!
(sorry for my English)

no one knows ?
When I use my earphones i talk through the phone's mic, and with your song problem try the repeat button
I had same problem. I now use s2u2 to lock phone. works great with hd 2.
you can set it not to lock system, and this then allows music to continue when the device locks.
from what he said sounds like u got a problem because i had the shipped rom and when i played music i locked the device so nothing would happen to it while i was listing to my mp3 but i also use the htc head set ...now on that note i tryed using the hd2 head set on the hd and u can not use the play fuctions on the headset, so htc made it sum how that allows u to only use the head set in any mode, anyone wants to run with this

Bluetooth connection problem with sony Bluetooth headphone DR-BT50

Hi to all
Before I had nokia n97 and a sony DR-BT50 Bluetooth headphone which could connect to n97 and my laptop so easy.
after I buy samsung galaxy s I tried to connect the headphone but no way. the phone can not discover the bluetooth headphone
Before i was on Eclair and try it but could not, after I update to Froyo I had hope to make it work but the problem persists.
here are the bluetooth headphone specifications:
Bluetooth® Technology : Bluetooth Version 2.0
Diaphragm : PET
Function : A2DP, AVRCP, HFP (1.0), HSP (Ver. 1.1, Vol. 2, Part K:6)
Interface : A2DP, AVRCP, HFP, HSP
I was wondering if this is a hardware matter or could connect phone to Bt headset by applying some update.
Anyone have any idea?
Hello! I have dr-bt50 and shw-m110s (korean galaxy). Before froyo i was able to pair devices and translate media to headset. No luck with voice calls though. After froyo pairing is successful too. But when i turn headset off, android forgets about a2dp profile associated with dr-bt50. So i have to unpair device, then pair it again EVERY TIME i want to listen to music or watch a video using headset. This is really sick.

Hi, MW600 works well on my SGS since Éclair. Are you pairing it correctly?
here are the instructions from the user guide:
Pairing the headset with another device
1)Make sure the headset is turned off.
2)Turn on the Bluetooth function in the other device
3)Place the other device within 20 cm (8 inches) of the headset.
4)Press and hold down the power on the headset for about 5 seconds until the pairing indicator appears on the display.
5)In the other device: Search for and add a new device.
6)If a passcode is required, enter 0000.
To reset your MW600
1)Make sure the headset is turned off.
2)Press and hold down the power until the pairing indication appears.
3)Simultaneously press and hold down power & call until the headset turns off.

Yes, all of the buttons and touch sensitive volume works. Did you try to reset the MW600?
MW600 can pair with 3 devices, maybe during the time that you tested it, your SGS was set as the "calling device" coz usually the first one if it is a phone or mp3 player will be set as the "music source".
You can either reset or manually set your SGS as the "music source" by long pressing the play button and selecting your SGS.

Problem solved by uninstalling 3trd party music player, must using the default player...
Oh yeah, is it safe to charge with the galaxy s charger ?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
You don't have to reset the MW600 just to pair with another devise, you just need to power off and long press the power, I posted this, 3 posts above.
I tested this with PowerAMP music player and all the controls work.
I've charged mine using SGS charger and USB but I can't say if it's safe, I'm no expert in that.
I Swyped this on my Galaxy S

Headhones w/ 3 Button(Thats works with HTC Arrive)

Are there any headphones with 3 button that works with the HTC Arrive(Besides the one that came with it).
3 button remote control functions vary

My HTC 7 Pro (not Arrive) came with a simpler HTC wired headset with only one button. I therefore bought the HTC RC E240 and RC E160 to try (I've also tried the RC E190) but alas these remote functions don't work as they should. The advance and retard track buttons function only as volume controls and neither could be configured to actually change tracks. My old TyTN II remote control had a patch file released by HTC (for earlier ROM versions) which gave full functionality in all regards. The problem is not with HTCs headsets, its simply that the Zune software on the phone and the OS don't recognise the button presses correctly - something HTC don't seem to want to fix:crying:
When you mention the 3 button headphones that came with your Arrive work - is that as above with different functions or by providing track changing functions? What model of headset is it?

[Q] Query about Headset!!

Guys,
I'm looking for a wired headset which will allow us to use the music controls tat comes with it(like play/pause, skip track and answer/end calls). I found the headset Nokia's WH-701 to be adequate. I wanna know if the music controls would work on our Galaxy 3? If not please suggest me a good headset with music controls.Thanks.
Sadly it doesn't work on our phone.. try headset button control app from market .... works perfectly for me
Yes, you can. Enable headset control in PowerAMP option.

I hope this is useful for persons who has doubts like me
thanks i am also trying to figure this problem out may b that will help me..
Goodmorning. I am new to this forum, and also new to Android. I have a few days that I started using the SG3 and I updated to froyo thru official firmwares without any modification. Everything works fine, and because I use voice call, I instaled the Cyberon voice commander. This software works perfect without the bluetooth, but thru bluetooth handfree the software doesn't talk to the headset, only to the speaker and also when I talk it doesnt hear me to the phone neither to the bluetooth. the same problem it has with the stock voice call. I tried it on both Nokia CW1 car kit and on Sony Ericsson MW600 stereo headset. What do you think I shall do? Possibly if I install the Kyrilos rom it will solve this?
Thank you
