Bluetooth Headset Camera Shutter - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I just remembered reading about how the HTC one x had a hidden feature which allowed Bluetooth headsets to act as remote camera shutters and decided to try it. It is supposed to be slightly different button combos depending on your headset. Just open your camera app with your headset paired and then play with button combos to see what works.
My Jawbone Icon uses a double tap of the primary button (which also is "re-dial") to activate my shutter. Pretty neat! Post what button combos you used for your headsets

I remember reading this too. I wonder why such a great feature is hidden?

My guess is that you're not using the sense camera .apk if you're running 4.2.1. This sounds like it's a feature of the factory camera app, and not the vanilla one.

Jabra Extreme 2 works with double tap, but only if you are only connected to the HOX (supports 2 devices simultaneously). This is kinda cool.

[Q] Does the Inspire 4G support AVRCP?

I plan on buying some Motorola S10 HD's and I use Power Amp app to play music. Does the Inspire 4G support bluetooth AVRCP?
I have a pair of Moto S10-HDs and they work perfectly with the Inspire. All buttons function how they should.

Awesome, thanks! Any lag or skipping using bluetooth? When I pair my Inspire to my double din JVC in dash player using bluetooth the audio seems to skip or pause for a little bit.
I have not noticed any audio issues. Sound is pretty good. Loud too.

My S9's work very well. I'd assume S10's won't be any issue. Enjoy!

Turn off wifi to avoid skipping. Wifi signal interferes with bluetooth

Redial last dialed number when using wired headset

In my case i can use single press for pause/play...
however I would like to be able to redial the last number when using wired headset on my Desire S.
can anyone suggest how to do this?
49 views and no-one knows?
is it possible to be done at all?
I've never heard of a wired headset that can do this, much less one that comes packaged with your phone.
Yes, I think it's safe to say that you can't do it. You're asking too much from a headset that only has one button.
but usually the BT headset have this function...why the wired would not do it?

I don't know if it makes any difference, but I am actually using a blackberry headset.
actualy, using stock eu rom as default i found when i was in music player press once = pause, press twice = redial last number.
I had to install headset tool to change press twice to next track.
I had the same issue with headset of my wife, she have wildfire. But when I tried desire s headset it works ok. I think problem is 3.5 connector.

i know holding the play/pause button did it for me back when i was with my Dinc
There is an app in market for it. You can find via search "headset" in market.

Answering on HANDSET, call goes to HEADSET. Really?

I'm loving this phone and all? But it's not without some pretty huge flaws. And this is coming from a guy who managed to survive 2 years carrying a Tilt 2.
Anyway, I digress...
My latest issue (actually my earliest but I've been searching unsuccessfully for a solution for a while now) is that when my phone is paired with a headset, which is pretty much all the time, and I answer a call with the HANDset, the call gets sent to the HEADset. Why would they do it that way?!
It makes no sense whatsoever. If my handset is in my hand and I answer the call with the screen button, send the call to my handset. If I wanted it to my headset, don't ya think I would have hit the button on the headset?
Or maybe there's a setting for this that I'm missing somewhere. If that's the case, I hope someone sets me straight here.

It makes plenty of sense, your using a headset. It's not a design flaw, that's how it's supposed to work.

We're gonna have to agree to disagree on this one. You're only "using" a headset when you choose to by clicking on the call answer button. That's why they have 'em.
I've been using Bluetooth headsets for 10 years now and this is the first one I've encountered that functions like this.

No way man... Sony Erricsson T-616 - my first BT phone, then a T-630, then the OG Moto RAZR, then the amazing HTC Cingular 3125, then I can't remember what, and then something else I can't remember... And then the Tilt 2, and now...? This is the first phone I've ever used that if you answer the call on the handset, sends it to the headset.
Shouldn't it go where you answer it? If my headset is in reach, great, I'll choose to answer it there. But if not, and just my phone is handy, wouldn't it make more sense to keep the call on the handset? I mean, to me that's just obvious.

I agree something is bugged with the bluetooth stack.
On my car SYNC will use the car speakers like is suppose to, but it wont use the vehicle built in mic it will use the the phone one. So i have to have the phone close to me with the mic pointer towards my mouth so people can hear me.
I dunno, it makes sense to me that if you have a headset PAIRED and ON that answering a call it would go to your headset. If you don't want it to go to your headset, I dunno man, maybe turn it off? If I had a bluetooth headset and it was paired and on I know I would want it to go to the the headset when I answered the phone but that's just me, I guess I'm just crazy like that.
I think it makes perfect sense. Imagine chilling at work, little office environment, BT speakers....and suddenly those speakers are broadcasting a phone conversation.
I'm with the OP on this, never had a phone behave that way. Call was always sent to which device answered it. Always. Or two phones paired to the same BT headset. I've done that before. Anyway, several reasons for it to be routed where it's answered.
And h/t to the OP for the 3125 reference. Solid little phone!

I had Tilt2, use bt all the time, and I'm pretty sure it went to the headset when answering. Plantronics Voyager Pro HD might be worth looking into. It automatically sends the audio back to the handset when you take it off your ear, and sends it back when you put it on.
In the dialer after you have answered you can change it back to the internal handset speaker quickly using the speakerphone button which now turned into a Bluetooth symbol and changing the audio back to the phone.

[Q] Cynogen Mod & Bluetooth Atrix 2 work?

Does the bluetooth feature in the latest Cynogen rom work with the motorola atrix 2? I currently have liquid smooth on it, but bluetooth dosent work and this is a huge thing for me. Hands free driving is very important.
Well I can verify that the Bluetooth works to transfer files and it connects to my Bluetooth stereo when I play Pandora so I would imagine it would work for hands free devices

Hoping Moto x pure volume rockers work

As the title says I really hope the volume rockers works on this phone because they didn't work on the 2014 moto x which was a big disappointment for those that use non Bluetooth headsets.
Do you mean volume rockers from the inline controls on wired headphones?

Wired headphones.

Wouldn't that depend on the headphones and not the phone?
I have a Galaxy S 5 right now, and my samsung headphone rocker works just fine. But when I used my skullcandy headphones the rockers didn't work.
It is the headphones. I have some headphones that work and others dont with my phone.

Headphone wirings arent all the same. There are still standards to it. Just like if you plugged in an Apple Earpods it does not work for example on Sony handsets but works on Samsung and Motorola. So basically its all because your headphone wirings does not match the one designed for Moto. So make sure to test and double check before purchasing
