[Q] Compatibility with Razer hammerhead pro? - Sony Xperia M2

Hi, recently I bought an in-ear headset from Razer: Hammerhead pro. It's specification said that it is compatible with any android devices. Therefore when I plugged it into my Xperia M2, everything worked fine except the answer call button ( from the headset): such button didn't response to any interaction ( play/pause music or pick up/hang up incoming phone calls). I installed SmartKey app to have a re-check but the problem is still there. I tried to plug the headset to another smart phones from other branches and it still works normally.
I wonder if this problem came from my M2 or not? Please help!

Works great with Motorola H700
Nokia HDW-3: works fine
Motorola H350 also works fine.
Compatability
Scala 700 works fine
Nokia hs-12w is also working fine.
With my SonyEricsson k800i I can use HID and control the P3600.
Plantronics 590A - perfect. It even switches from TV source to phone when somebody is calling. Previous/next track works. Redial works. All features fully work with Trinity. EXCELLENT
One strange thing though: I was listening to music on Trinity and paused it from the headset. After one minute Trinity went to sleep, screen went off. I pressed resume on headset and the music started again with screen remaining COMPLETELY OFF. However, a few seconds later the music stopped just when I was beginning to think I discovered a way to keep music playing with screen light off .
Next few tries whenever I press resume on headset screen starts and music resumes normally.
Successfully tested with a samsung WEP185 !

Hi All,
I also have the DS970 bluetooth kit, and it works like a charm, but i have a question. Anyone managed to have the current music playing displayed on the screen? And the name of the called, instead of the caller id? Anyone?
thanks,

JABRA BT-320s Stereo Headphone.
I bought this 2 days ago and I struggled to connect it with the Trinity. Here are the problems I came up against.
1. Mono (not stereo) sound using Media Player (WMP). Found this registry hack in other threads ---> Set HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings/[UseJointStereo = 0] (was 1 decimal).
2. WMP stalls briefly from time to time. From the same thread:
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings/[BitPool = 45] (was 30decimal).
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings/[MaxSupportedBitPool = 45] (was 30 decimal).
3. When handsfree to phone, the bt320s would drop out while the caller was connected. I tried a hard reset of Trinity in case there was a conflict with other software. This didn't help. I then found an undocumented way to reset the bt320s and that fixed it. It is now working well for listening to music, handling calls or using the Voice Speed Dial . To reset the bt320s:
a. Turn off the bt320s.
b. Connect and disconnect the bt320s to its charger 3 times leaving it on the charger for 3-5 seconds each time.
c. Delete the bt320s partnership on the PDA
d. Pair the bt320s to the PDA again.
Big thanks to all others on this forum and other forums for their help.

Unfortunately these features are not supported.
I THINK that the A2DP profile doesn't cover sending music file metadata at all (I am not sure)
Thanks for your help, but i am curious about this functionality. Does anyone know if these headset show the song playing when used with a sony mobile?
thanks,
Luís

This doesn't work with the Nokia HS-12W either on any of the Windows Mobile BT stacks and versions I've ever tested.
Did anyone successfully manage to listen to music via A2DP on the Plantronics Pulsar 260?

And with mortplayer, with coreplayer in a future revision and with 40th iplay.
By the way, I have a DS970 too, and when I receives an incoming call I can see the caller ID but then the handsfree hangs up. Do someone has the same problem? I have this problem when I'm listening music and when I'm only connected waiting a call.
G'Day ,
Just purchased the BlueAnt Micro X3 Bluetooth Headset for my Dopod D810. So far very nice, works extremely well, great range and no static. Only very slight echo. I will be sending Blueant an email to see if they have a solution or fix.
Here is a link:

The unit itself is very small, but comfortable a lot nicer than my previous Nokia 202 which produced a lot of static.

[Completed] Android 6, Xperia E5 intermittent play & pause with jack cable

Hello, I am posting the most mysterious problem I have ever had on android. Since I bought my phone, as I plug an old jack (with 2 rings) either it works well, or it just pauses impossible to listen to music as if the phone detected a support On the button pause of the earphone except that it is the enclosure of my car and that there is no button on the cable, the same happens when I plug it has a hifi. Having understood that the phone receives a phantom signal that tells him to pause it, I went into my pro player and I deactivated the support of the earphone and instead the music does not cut but only alternates between The loudspeakers of my phone and those of my car. It must come from a software conflict because it does not do it all the time, if it happens sometimes I rekindle and it works perfectly and sometimes it does not change anything. Has anyone ever had this problem? I found nothing on the net. And would there be a way to make android ignore these signals because it makes me crazy? When I use a recent jack (3 rings, my ipod earphone for example) everything works perfectly.
Please help me i'm
desperate

some Bluetooth drawbacks

So I got the honor 8 as my new phone since I wasn't satisfied with my previous LG V10's battery live and didn't wanted to spend 600+ € again.
Two drawbacks I found on my H8 after setting everything up are related to the device's Bluetooth:
1 - although introduced in android 6.0.1 again, the H8 is not able to control Bluetooth volume correctly. I can only control the device's media volume and have to manually set the volume on my Bluetooth device, too. Expected behaviour is to control Bluetooth volume on the phone (this works perfectly on my Xperia Z3 Compact)
2 - you simply can't have to hands free devices connected at the same time over Bluetooth. In my car I have a build in hands free in my car's audio system and I'm using TomTom 620 for navigation and to display incoming calls or initiate calls. This worked perfectly on the LG V10 where all connected devices would ring at the same time and the one I used to answer the call would than do the audio while TomTom would display active call information. Unfortunately LG seams to use a more advance Bluetooth hardware as this also doesn't work on my Xperia Z3 Compact simultaneously, nor on my brand new H8.
What's your experience with that?
For the bluetooth headphone issue, you can head into developer settings and enable "Disable absolute volume" to go back to the old way Bluetooth headphones used to work!

bluetooth no call audio pixel

I used to be able to hear calls and media whilst connected to bluetooth in my car. one day it just stopped working. media still works but when i make a call or receive one, there's no audio. calls ,audio, and contacts are all checked in bluetooth settings. i've forgotten devices, rebooted, reconnecting, and nothing helps.
bluetooth connects to everything fine, but no call sound over any accessory i try. got a new car and it won't work in there either. i'm on android 7.1.2 .
searched all over and plenty of people are having these issues but none of the posts i've read solve my problem. any help would be appreciated
Hey hey, I have a 128GB pixel with the same issue. I actually opened a case with Google support today about it. about 3 months back, only phone audio stopped working in my car. I was hoping the 8.0 update would fix it but it did not. I have a 2017 Honda Civic LX. I tried everything on my phone - even factory reset. Media audio works, I can play Spotify just fine but when i get a call, I can not hear the other person and they cannot hear me. The phone indicates it is connected via bluethooth... I'll try to update this post with what they find.

128G pixel here. This happens with every Bluetooth device I connect it to. 2 car stereos, 2 speakers, and a headset. All worked fine and suddenly one day... Didn't. I was hoping O Would fix it with all the Bluetooth bug fixes and changes they implemented.

Darn, so the issue is a bit different. Mine works fine on a couple of other speakers I have.
Did anyone ever solve this? I've got the same issue, but it effects *all* my Bluetooth devices, but only when I am switched to my secondary user profile.
I've reset the phone app but no dice.
My phone will say it is connected to the Bluetooth device for the phone call. If I switch to speaker or phone and then back to Bluetooth, it works. Anyone else have similar?

Hi!
After hours of Googling you are the first I found who has the same error.
I have a Lenovo TAB4 8+, my kid wants to use Zoom and his Bluetooth headset but only the speaker and mic on the tablet works. I tried fresh install, without luck:
There are 4 type of users:
- Owner (primary - this is the only profile which works for calls on bluetooth headset)
- Standard Users (secondary - bt headset only supports listening: Spotify etc..)
- Child (bt headset only supports listening: Spotify etc..)
- Guest
The bluetooth headset is working with other devices, but not with this one. Unfortunately I have no other android device which supports multi-user.
Moreover, there was an hour when bt call worked from secondary user, but couldn't find out what is the problem.
Can anybody help me on this?
Best regards,
Karoly

but now every call i make or receive, both I and the responder/speaker, hear only a big noise.
Tried with another smartphone and no issue, but very strange if i connect the xiaomi to a BT ears no problems at all, if i connect the xiaomi to a BT speaker no problems at all...
I have already tried,:
-delete and reconnect the phone to the car
-reboot the phone
-manage the bt option on the phone, disable AAC and absolute volume
I have to try the xiaomi with another car....

Hello. Any updates on the topic?
Let me add my story here too. The thing is- my phone is mi note 10 lite.
Here it goes. So, recently, about a week or 2 ago the Bluetooth audio stopped working completely on my device. I don't understand where to look, and how did it happen. The phone was global official rom, locked bootloader no root etc.
The situation is as follows : the headphones /car audio system can connect and pair. But there's no sound when you press the play button. Moreover, the Bluetooth works, at least I think it works also because I have a huawei watch connected to the phone. And I have notifications everything is fine.
So during these 2 weeks I tried to clear cache/bt and wifi settings (no need to tell you that my headphones connect and play music with no problems with other devices. Tried on my wife's p20 pro.) i tried to make factory reset. No results. Today I even rolled back on android 11 rom from 2021. Offcical rom. Sadly nothing changed. Everything works perfectly, except Bluetooth audio.
Have redmi buds 4 pro and amazfit powerbuds. With my phone they connect but no audio. With huawei p20 pro they connect and work how they should. Also they have no problems with my mi tab 5.
Don't know what to do.
