I tried to set up a set of BT Stereo Headphones in a shop the other day to test them. We couldn't get them to go so we could listen to mp3s. I use GSPlayer.
Has anybody done this successfully? How do you tell the Magician (WM5) to output the sounds to the bluetooth headset and not to the normal headphones audio output socket?
many thanks,
Zaine.
Cant remeber where i got and who to give props too. but here it is
just run the output all audio to bluetooth and the run the other to turn off
and the auto mode which i havent tested out yet
Bewdiful.
Bewdy mate.
Thanks very much, that seems to do the trick. It works with my normal headset now. I'll go back to the shop now and test those other headphones.
The auto toggle seems to work OK as well, btw.
Once again, thanks a million.
Good deal. I gotta try this out. Will this work w/ the Wizard?
It doesn't work with my Magician + BHCS BT Patch...
I've read plenty of threads about this. For Magician, A2DP is WMP only. Doesn't work with anything else.
Mind you, this is what everyone else has said. I have not tested this myself.
I can confirm that, in my experience.
Also: WMP is pretty rubbish about its A2DP support. For some reason it'll only stream mp3s within a certain bitrate, too low and it uses the device's speaker.
It won't do non-stnadard sample-rates either, and on most setups it seems to "burp" every few seconds.
Ik am succesfull with the standard WMP though. It plays all bitrates, and only rarely stutters... So when I use WMP, I am satisfied!
Works fine, just bad quality sound with Bluetooth.
Well, I tried again in the shop and everything worked fine on my Magician (a T Mobile MDA compact with WM5). However, the sound quality was pretty rubbish. The sales guy reckoned that was a function of Bluetooth.
So, not a winner there. But, I can now listen to my voice recordings and podcasts via my normal BT Headset, which is really handy.
Thanks again to the Frioman - a really useful couple of apps. The toggle is on my Today page now!

Yeah, I got this all the time, espically if I fast forwarded and rewound. And I was re-encoding mp3s to different bitrates, constant and variable without much success.
"Damn WMP and it's lack of features! The stupid thing can only play MP3s... and... WMA..."
I did a few test re-encodes to WMA 9 (not 9.1) @ 192 and now I get those burps and crackles every ... ten minutes? Half an hour? Definitly not every... what, twenty seconds to a minute.
If this is a problem for you, try re-encoding to WMA 9 @ 192. I use dbPowerAmp http://www.dbpoweramp.com/
ooff! took me about 2 and 1/2 days to re-find this thread again!! can we get a sticky on this????
used this on my Wizard (aka mda) and my Moto H3 and now can listen to my tv shows on the train w/my bt headset!
thanks!!!
I got a Unable to Open bluetooth audio gateway or something, though my headset is connected...strange.

There is three icons one for audio off and one for audio on and one for toggle.
I ran one at a time but after 15 or 20 minutes I loose blue tooth connections and the communications manager freezes and when I click on the blue tooth Icon in settings it does nothing, I have to turn the mda off and then I can listen over the blue tooth again, but after 1or 20 minutes it does it again.
can you help?

is there any one out there
BT Audio User Problem
I downloaded BT Audio and installed the three .exe files on my 8525. Soft reset the device and then toggled the audio on.exe. Sound still coming out of the speaker and not the BT headset.
I do have the BT-620's and they work fine (even before the BT Audio install). I am trying to accomplish being able to listen to WM without having to lug the BT-620's around all the time.
I am wondering if having the 620's software is conflicting with BT Audio?
Also, I think to get the audio stream to play to the headset, one has to activate the voice dialing feature from the headset? I can get the sound to play only for a few seconds when I do this. Do I need to de-activate voice dialing? If so, how?
Thanks and Happy Holidays
Wokring great with Plantranics voyer 510
Thanks for such nice software....it is working great in my mda and voyer 510 bluetooh head set.

NIce
Thank you so much, toggle works well, switches to calls and back
very cool.
Hi everybody,
I´m planning to buy a bluetooh stereo headphones for listening music and hands free calling.
I´d like to have:
- Controls for controlling mp3 playing, volume and phone functions (hang,interchange calls....).
- Screen for seeing mp3 tags and caller id.
- High battery life.
- Voice calling.
Any idea on what to get.
I have a qtek s200 (g4 prophet) rom: 2.20 spanish.
Thanks in advance.
I have been usin` Plantronics Pulsar P590. No problems so far. Qulity is very good, all necessary controls for controlling mp3 playing.
Thanks very much for the advice, but it doesn´t have screen.
Best.

After reading your great post and some links you have on it, i realized that it seems that i´m looking for something that doesn´t exist.
The only options i have considered after reading, are sony HBH-DS970 and nokia HS-12W and no one can manage mp3 tags on screen and the battery life is not so good.
Maybe is time to wait to someone comes whith what i want.
Thanks a lot.
I'm intrested in where you think the screen should be on "headphones" in order for you to see them? I think a far better idea would be to have an extra button to press that gives you a voice prompt/annoucement that reads the track title to you. I've seen some half-baked attemps of this on the PC.
Thinking about it, can't MS Voice Commander do this if you speak to it?
Like this will be ok for you to see it when you want without taking out your phone.

I prefer this than the phone telling you each song title.
I like this headphones. The problem is that it doesn´t show, i don´t know why mp3 tags and the battery life is not so long.
Will see if someone come with something good enought.
Best.
Hey,
I think I am not the only one who uses regular 3,5mm headphones (no headset) to listen to music on my Touch HD.
When getting a call its quite annoying that you have to pull out the headphones all the time (apart from that it will result in a defective contact after some time).
So it would be really nice if someone can make a little app that will just disable the complete headset profile as soon as you get a call and that will enable it again after the call has ended. would be great if someone can code that little app! I have no developer-experience at all but I guess it shouldn't be a big deal...
no one else who would find this app useful?
I could use such a program in my car, I uses the 3.5 jack to transfer music to my car stereo and if i am listening to the radio i cant hear the incoming calls.
I have a Plantronics Voyager 855 stereo bluetooth headset. When I first purchased it, it worked wonderfully. Sound quality in call was just as good as sound quality for my music. However, lately, this has not been the case. I can still hear fine when I'm using my music player, but in call the other party is almost inaudible. The phone volume is at max, the bluetooth volume is at max, and the in call volume is at max. I have tried deleting and re-pairing, I've tried using it on 5 different phones (3 Nokia and 2 HTC) on S40, S60, Windows Mobile 6 and Android 1.5. The same problems persist over all the hardware and software I've tried. There is no information on this problem that I have seen online, and I can not get in touch with the Plantronics support team at this time. Does anyone have any suggestions? As it works fine in music mode, I do not really want to buy another, if the in call problem can be solved at all.....
Thanks in advance.
Seriously? No ideas? That sucks. I may have to give in and buy a new one.
I have Samsung HM1000 bluetooth handsfree. When i pair it with Wildfire S (A510e), during incoming call, I only get feeble beeps (which very difficult to hear in noisy as well as even in normal condition). Where as when i pair the handsfree with Nokia handset, I can even get a MP3 ringtone in the earpiece.
What could be the problem ? Any solution ?
HTC customer care asked me to soft reset & try again. But no luck.
Wildfire S has bluetooth 3.0 where as handsfree is bluetooth 2.1 +EDR.
HTC customer care says it should support.
This is not uncommon. Ringtones over bluetooth are not part of the bluetooth specifications, so while a phone may be compatible/supported, this feature is not guaranteed to work (Nokia has the best bluetooth stack on the market).
Thanks Lee,
Is there any way to increase the vol of BEEPS. Right now its very feeble. I think i'll not be able to listen to it in crowded area or in the car if music is on in the car's music system.
If your carkit has a volume setting, that would be the way to increase them. I myself have the same situation, except my beeps are extremely loud, so it scares the hell out of me everytime my phone rings
It's not a car kit. I am using a Handsfree being mounted on the ear. U can see this model on Samsung website. Though there are vol buttons, they didn't help in increasing the beeps volume. They can increase / decrease conversation volume.
Any suggestions ?
Can HTC release a patch to resolve the issue ?
I have been searching for this myself as well; the feature is officially called "in-band ringtone". I can't find anything that's android related though.
If you plan to get a new one, may i suggest a blueant device..ive been using one for over 2 years now and used it on motorola, nokia, samsung, htc and it worked flawless ..
dun wry...am not selling em . i just love my blueant st3
I am talking about hands-free to be fixed on the ear (something like Blueant Q2). ST3 appears to be a speakerphone larger in size. Again, in one of the review, it is mentioned to bluetooth ver 2.0.
In the, mean time i once again contacted HTC customer care.
Now they say it should be ver 3.0....A2DP.....Stereo etc.etc.
I don't understand how there can't be backward compatibility ?
How many Bluetooth 3.0 hands-free devices are available in the Indian market ?
Another test:
HM1000 (same model,Bluetooth 2.1 but another piece)connected with SAMSUNG Galaxy ACE (Bluetooth 2.1). Same results. (Only beeps during incoming call).
Any comments / justification from experts.
Hi! I have the same problem. Only faint beeps emitted by the bluetooth headset during incoming calls. (I tried it using samsung galaxy y and blackberry 8520)
What could be the problem? Please help.
