Has anyone had issues in regards to using Bluetooth with Bluetooth headphones? This will be one of my primary uses of this phone. I heard rumors that music over Bluetooth can stutter.
Cheers.

I'm running rooted stock and I use bluetooth ear buds all the time and I've never had any stutter while playing music.

I've been using this headset for a long time now. And I would like to use it with my desire as well. But the sound quality is so poor that it's like listening to a 56k mp3 file while actually I'm playing a 320kbps mp3.
It seems to me that somehow the bitrate on the bluetooth connection isn't high enough(very low actually).
Does anybody here know how I can change that easily? Or do you have any other solutions for this problem without buying a new headset.
btw, I use a Sennheiser HD215 headphone or the SE in-ear ear buds.
thanks in advance
I'm using the SE MW600 and I have no problems. Using stock rom with the update.

Good for you, but I would like to know how to adjust the bluetooth bitrate on Android.
sorry if I sound a bit grumpy but I've been searching for about 1,5 days straight and still found nothing.

Have you selected the media and phone options in advanced bluetooth settings????

No actually I never touched these settings because they were already enabled when I paired the devices. And I figured it would be quite crucial to have those settings enabled if I wanted to use those profiles.

Was hoping you would conclude from my post that there isn't a problem with the Desire regarding bitrates over bluetooth. Does the headset work on other devices without problems?

Ok, I know that for example the mw600 headset from SE works fine. So I think it's just the combination of devices, but that would be solved if I would be able to alter the bitrate.
I have used the headset with other devices without any problem, other than that I had to set the bitrate higher on a WM 6.5 device.
I tried to use google navigation with my Jawbone bluetooth headset and the voice of the lady that gives you turn by turn directions are coming out of the phone speaker, not through my headset.
is there a setting I'm missing to get it to come through the headset instead of the phone speaker?
I checked in the google navigation and found nothing, nor in the settings > wireless & network > bluetooth...
Thanks in advance.
can anyone help me out with this?
thanks.

oh... well that's not very convenient...
that also explains why music don't go to my headset either... huh.
you know, actually, that's kind of stupid now I think about it.
who the heck at HTC decide on that? I mean, who drives with a stereo bluetooth headset on? it's illegal!
speaker on our phones aren't that loud to begin with. having the turn by turn direction come trough on the headset would have been beneficial...
go figure.
I hope they add an option so this is possible on the update(if we ever get it).
anyway, thank you very much for the info.

yeah, I just realized that...
stupid if you ask me. who the heck drives around with a stereo headset...
I mean sure, I guess it's fine to work with a handsfree carkit and/or patched through your bluetooth enabled car stereo but if you have your window down while driving, it's still hard to hear.
they need to come up with an option on the phone setting for either stereo or mono bluetooth connectivity.

Well thats not actually true. Make sure your next Bluetooth has Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP). It doesnt have to be stereo, it can be monural, mine is. All of mine are actually. If it has A2DP it it will say it on the box. A lot of jawbones have that feature but i've noticed it buggy with the sensation. When a headset has A2DP, when it connects to the phone it connects as phone audio and media audio. With the sensation for me, on multiple jawbones (jawbone and jambox) it only connects both audio sources when it initially pairs. The next time it connects it only connects as phone audio. I have to unpair the jawbone then pair it again and media audio will work. I've updated the firmware on both of my jawbones and it didn't help. Maybe a fix is comin, who knows. Doesnt look like TmoUS is gonna get one any time soon
OP What model jawbone do you have? If it has A2DP then unpair it and re-pair it, it should work then.

hey, thank you for the info.
that just solved it right there. A2DP...
I own a Jawbone 2. I don't think this unit has A2DP.
I guess it's time to upgrade to a new headset.
hate to give it up though... I really like how it looks, hangs on the ear(fits my ear perfect, can't even tell sometimes I have it on), and sounds.
guess I'm off to shop for either a new Jawbone(if they fit my ear right) or a new brand altogether.
anyway, thanks again.
Plain and simple your bluetooth has to support media playing thru it
Did I read someplace that bluetooth is NOT working with this ROM?
I use my phone with my car hands free system and this would be a deal breaker for me if it doesn't work.
I've tried it with a bluetooth headset and that doesn't seem to work.
False alarm (duh). I've got bluetooth working just fine now by redoing pairing setup.
Also, the ROM that is having the bluetooth problems is the CM7, not Infusion. Thanks for looking anyway.

Are any of the Bluetooth handsfree car kits any good? I just tried the Motorola Roadster 2 and it is totally crap. Tinny, staticty, basically unable to be heard or understood on the other end.

I've got the GROM-IPD3 in my '04 Volvo S60R. I added the bluetooth addition and use A2DP to stream audio. Alternatively you could use the 3.5mm jack, it has an adapter for it. I also use it to charge the phone. The GROM-USB is more for iphone users, as it will allow you to view the song text on th radio. They claim this doesn't work in Android yet, but will be enabled soon via Bluetooth with our devices since they're AVRCP 1.4+. The bluetooth addition also comes with a microphone so you can place calls over it as well. Works pretty well honestly.

Anyone else have any experience?

There seems to be the same problem with all Xperia devices, but i couldn't find much about it with the Z3.
When playing music via bluetooth to a apt-x receiver there is a little break every few hundred milliseconds. This is really annoying and makes it impossible to use it at all. For some reason, sometimes it is just working fine with perfect sound quality. Also, with a non-apt-x receiver there is no problem.
I'm using 5 GHz WiFi and with my S3 and my Note 10.1 2014 or iPhones the connection works perfectly.
I already tried the old Bluetooth fix for the Z1, but it doesn't help.
Do you experience the same issue or do you have any solution?
I'm using the Avantree Saturn bluetooth receiver.
edit: sometimes it works fine for a while and then suddenly, e.g. when i start a game, it starts to stutter
No issues with my Sony SRS X7 Bluetooth/WiFi Speaker ....................unless its not using Apt-X some reason.
It says "connected to aptX-device" if it's a aptX connection
You are right I checked, it says Apt-X device while connecting. So I guess it works fine for me. I have not had any issues.
Thanks for checking! That's strange though, I found some other posts about that issue, mainly with car radios. Maybe it works because you have a Sony speaker
I think it differs device to device I had no issues with a HarmonKardon Onyx Studio either.
On Amazon there are a few people saying they get that issue with that Bluetooth reciever with other devices. I suppose it does not like the Z3.
Mine does not Display Aptx when connecting to my SRS-X5 or My Ecoxbt, which both supports Aptx.
When exactly does it display it?
Sent from my D6616 using XDA Free mobile app
Right as your connecting it. It will say "Connected to Apt-X device" in a notification near screen bottom, and then disappear.
Mine does not display Apt-x.
Edit: I can't seem to upload a pic.

Not the main notification.
It stays for like 2 secs near the bottom of the screen just after it finishes pairing.
It's in German but this is what it looks like

Ah so it's a toast notification. I'm not getting it. I even unpaired and paired again, still no Apt-X message.
Does this mean Apt-X my Z3 is not working for some reason?

US site, by few I mean only 10 or 15 people out 200+ reviews. But I think its safe to say it depends on device to device.
I have a problem with the bluetooth in my car it is always disconnected (Toyota original device) and after a while connect again.
