I don't know which headset I should use with my MDA Pro.
I'm a Plantronics fan, but Jabra also makes good Headsets. What do you think about the new Jabra with LCDisplay? It would be a good complement to use the closed Universal.
Did anybody use this new Jabra?
What model Jabra? the BT800? That one has the number display for called ID. It's good. I did not think i'd get use to it, I prefer the older bt250 style, but it's not bad at all and supports voice dialing.
i got the jabra's BT800 and SE Akono HBH660.. i think i like the bt800 better
@ GM: Is the display a big helper? Does it only show the number, or ist it possible to see the name either?
I am using the Motorola HS850 and it seems to work very well with JasJar.

Plantronics hasn't really released any new BT headsets. I'm still using my old M3000 with the MDA II. Try out Jabra since they seem to be the market leader for BT headsets.
bluetooth ...
i've used several BT headsets and the best ones i've used are from SonyEricsson ... I currently use both HBH-300 and HBH-608 and they both work fine on my XDA 2s ... the only thing i've noticed (comparing my XDA 2s with my SE P910i) that the bluetooth isn't as strong compared when i use them on my SE Phone... in comparison with other headsets, i think Jabra has been a good competitor as well as nokia ... i also have the O2 BT headset which is nice and small but the signal is really poor ...
C
I currently use an SE Akono HBH-300 and had an HBH-65 - they both work fine with my XdaII, though the 65 had crap battery life.
I am using the Oakley Razrwire glasses with my Jasjar 95% of time... Bluespoon AX 5% of time. BT has worked flawlessly on my Universal. I haven't had it drop connection not once.

number only
It's a shame that the JASJAR only sends the caller number to the headset and not the contact name.
I've tried my BT800 on my SE P910i and it displays the contact name when used on that device.
@ Triband81: Plantronics released a whole bunch of new interesting Headsets:
Voyager 510, with extended system für "normal" wired phones
Discovery 320
Discovery 640, only 9g, interesting charging solution
http://reviews.cnet.com/Plantronics_Discovery_640_Bluetooth_headset/4505-5_7-31515626-2.html?tag=top
I ordered mine yesterday.
The Jabra BT800 sounds very interesting because of the display. But it lokks very large on the photos.
i think the bt800 needs the handsfree profile instead of the headset profile w/c jasjar has to display the actual contact name (if you check out jabra's website, almost all ppcpe's are not compatible with bt800). its either jabra released a new firmware for the bt800 or we'll wait for a ROM upgrade for jasjar

I have been using the plantronics v510, and it works very well with the JasJar. This is the only headset that I used when I first turned it on, I had to turn it down a couple notches just because it was too loud. Great headset, I wanted the 640, but couldnt wait for it to be released.
Anyone does know how to redial via bluetooth headset (HBH 660)?
@ guido: Try a "doubleclick" at the main headset button.
Thinking of getting the bluespoon 5g, I have no use for it right now with IIs, Mini and car phone... But after getting the Exec, BT is a must I guess and 5g seems to go well with it ;P
My headset- HBH Sony ericsson 662. Can see phone Number, can use voidial and listen music via bluetooth with Jasjar
:wink:
question:
can someone tell me if on the Jabra BT800 i can see the display while i'm wearing it ?
thanks

pls i got jabraBT800 to use with i mate pda2k but it usually disconnects in sleep mood,is this problem related to imate or to the headset? and what headset is good with my pda2k?
I use a Plantronics Discovery 640 headset which seems OK.
Every headset I've tried seems a bit crackly (that's down to the BA I think) but the Plantronics certainly keeps the link up and it very comfortable to use. The kit has a whole range of charging options too, including an AAA cell charger.
What headset are you all using with your HC Touch?
Let us know what audio quality is like for handsfree phone function and listening to music/MP3s. Please also share your experiences in using the included HTC headset (which I think is appalling)

Had it two days - Sony DR-BT10CX Bluetooth stereo/handsfree - great for running and excellent sound quality for both calls and music.
Cheap too!
http://www.mymemory.co.uk/memory/Sony/DR-BT10CX/Bluetooth/Stereo/Headphones
That looks great.
Unfortunately I have already a great headset... with 3.5mm connector.
Is there any MiniUSB-to-3.5mm-adapter?
Thanks

Yes, but this is without microphone. Just for listening music.

Doesnt have a button but it has a mic
http://www.expansys.com.au/p.aspx?i=149936
Thanks, but the description says:
Description
Use this adaptor to convert the HTC Touch extUSB socket to support any 3.5mm stereo headphones. The adaptor also has a hangup/answer button for normal voice calls through a stereo headset.
So I think it has a button
Thats great
Jawbone headset is amazing
I have ordered one of these after hearing from many people just how good these are. I got mine from Expansys.co.uk

Man, those things look/sound badass...I might have to pick one of those up - I don't really have a quiet car, and I LOVE driving with the windows down! Hefty price tag on eBay though - pay to play though, right?
If you are looking at the DR-BT10CX, I suggest you get the DR-BT20NX instead because it got a remote for music - same earbuds and receiver essentially.

The HTC headset works fine for calling and music. For use in the car I have a jabra BT5020 and quality is good, auto-pair ofcourse.
I'm thinking of DIY-ing the usb to 3.5mm audio jack, does anyone have any idea how the usb connectors corresponed to the audio outputs? thanks!
Been shopping around now, since I saw that Jawbone...but I'm wondering...
Is there a Stereo Bluetooth headset with noise-canceling technology out there that anyone knows of???
I've been searching, but to no avail.
Motorola S9 for Stereo and Plantronics 665 for phone
If I am not listening to music I use the Plantronics 665. If I want to listen to music and take calls I use the Motorola S9 stereo BT headphones. The S9 is amazing for quality and fit. Don't let the strange (to some people) design fool you. These are high quality headphones. I have compared these to the Motorola 805s (DJ style) and HT820 (behind the head) and expected the S9 not to sound as good - not true. All 3 Motorola headsets sound great, but for the size the S9 sounds overall just as good if not better. I didn't like the sound of the Jabra BT headphones and the Plantronics over the head (590A) headset sounded good, but not as good as the S9.
By the way I tested a Jawbone and was not impressed at all. Didn't like the fit, sound was only OK and if you need the noise cancellation you have to press a button on the unit for 3 seconds to turn it on - each time. Certainly this is good technology, but for me the Plantronics 665 fits better and over all sounds much better.
I am using a Jabra BT620s for music and calls. Sound quality is very good. Nice fit, good battery performance and fits nicely on my head It has blue leds on both sides that blink when in use, its a bit weird at first but once you get past the oooohs and aaaahs from everyone its great
Has controls aswell (next, previous, volume up/down, accept call/hang up, play/pause) The accept/hangup key has the extra function when not in a call, it activates the voice command program so you can talk commands to your phone
has anyone tried SE HBH-DS970 with this ? comments ?
thx
sorry this is a double post
Anyone tested the HTC Touch E100 or W100 Wired Remote Control?
http://www.expansys.com/htc/p_htc_item.aspx?i=147565
http://www.expansys.com/htc/p_htc_item.aspx?i=150194
-Does it work on the Touch?
-Does it work with HTC Audio Manager?
-Does the FM Radio works?
What's the difference between E100 & W100 model?

I have a Nokia CK-7W buildin carkit in my car (company carkit) which also had bluetooth. Unfortunatly this bluetooth connection gives alot of problems when calling.
I can hear people fine but they hear constant break-ups in the connection. I tried it with a Sony bluetooth headset and everything worked fine.
So dont use the touch combined with a Nokia CK-7W
I'm using the Sony BT20NX and theyre absolutely the best. High quality stereo audio with AVRCP (?) remote profile which works with Windows Media Player, Audio Manager, and TCPMP. The headset is comfortable to wear, blocks outside sound so you can enjoy music at a low volume. The sound is clear and the connection is solid. The buttons are easy to use and I use it for MS Voice Command too, which is awesome. Perfect headset, if you can still find them (I heard theyre discontinued).
What stereo blue tooth HEADSET do you recommend for Wizard? I am interested into a head set not very expensive ...but I want also to be able to listen music or to speak at the phone with it.

2. after a call music resumes and in the earphone.
3. AVRCP
4. Caller ID ! u can see both the name & the number on the lcd ( with jetware ).

I'll have the Jabra BT620s in the mail today... I'll post a review asap.
Jabra BT headphone
As promised;
I got the Jabra headset yesterday, and last night I was able to try it. First of all, sound quality is better than expected. Setup was somewhat confusing, since the manual is not so clear. But, I managed. Made a couple of phonecalls, all fine. Overall, nice set of headphones. Luckily, the flashing blue leds can be turned off.
Hi
I use the Anycom BSH-100. The Headset is not bad at all, with HS/HF/A2DP/ AVRRCP and a up to 200 h standby + upto 12 h music playtime.
Tech data here: http://www.anycom.com/products/bluetooth_audio_video/stereo_headset_bsh_100/?id=102&partno=CC3300
There is no buildin Microphone. A small (about 3 cm) mic is attacht to the side mini usb-jack. This mini usb-jack is also used to charge the batteries. Most of the time i forgett the mic, when charging the Headset, so i use the Headset often to listen to mp3s and recive calls without using the headset. ( a bild in Mic would be better) The headset goes to mute when a call comes in.
picture here: http://files.anycom.com/images/products/lifestyle/cc3300_lifestyle_01.jpg
+ (plus):
Handling is very easy.
Long Standby & playtime
small transport size (faltable)
- (minus):
seperate Mic
Sound Quality is OK but not as good as a normal wired-headset. (maybe normal for BT)
no option to turn of the flashing blue led
best regards Oliver
Hi, Anyone using Jabra Bt320 with the Touch? I tired to connect for stereo headset but its fails. I had the same problem with Dopod 810 but some after making some changes in the registry the problem was solved. I tired the same tweaks in Touch but it fails. Any suggestion from the forum? Thanks
I used the BT320
and the stereo was fine. I also made the adjustments to the registry and it carried on working fine.
However, I sent the unit back because I bought a Jabra 120s with it and found that, after initial pairing problems (which went away), there was an audio lag which made watching TV rubbish!
When you pair with the BT320s, you should have the option to use it as either
1. a hands-free or
2. wireless stereo.
If you don't, delete the device from your Touch then...
...plug the BT320s into it's charger, three times, for 4 seconds each time.
Now pair again and the option for wireless stereo will magically appear.
Try Motorola S9. Nice and solid. Matches Touch design too.

You get what you pay for comes to mind with BT headsets.
I have yet to come across one headset that plays great stereo sound
and gives you great call quality. However, for stereo sound the Motorola
S9 kicks arse over anything out there and the Jawbone does the voice
calls better than anyone out there. S9 is around $100US and the Jawbone
is $130US ish. Not cheap but you won't be looking to replace them because
they don't do their job. Now if you have a big melon the S9 maybe a problem.
AE!
Hi.
I got the HT820 from Mototola.
Sound is good.
Easy installation on Touch.
Noise cancelling.
Looks a little bit spacy but fits good.
AND I payed 12€ for it on ebay.de.
I use BT320s
Hi,
I am using Jabra BT320s, It just works fine with my Touch. I did the in pairing initially, but after I upgraded with latest firmware I don't have any problem in pairing.
firmware can be found here
http://rapidshare.com/files/51865424/JabraBT320swebupdate_1077.zip
Please read the instruction to update the firmware
Well i got the Motorola BT820 last week, very satisfied
great sound nice volume, little weakness but accepteble by my standard
when theres a lot of static noise the build in mic does piick up on that a bit.
i use it for mp3 mostly, and o yeah its comfortoble too
price is nice if i compare to other headsets,
still thinking about trying the new logitech headset
is there anybody who has experienced it
I have posted a question regarding a small problem with the Bb20s right here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=326489
This is a description of my problem, as posted. Does anyone have an idea?
---
Received my Jabra 620s yesterday. First impressions: it is quite big and heavy, but it is better than earplugs ;-) Sounds quality is quite good.
Here is my problem: After pairing the headset with my device, everything behaves as expected until some event (this happend on multiple occasions, different trigger but the same result): the headset controls still function (i.e. I can skip songs etc), but the HTCs audio is routed to the HTC speaker instead of the headset. I cannot fix this, the only way is to remove the bluetooth connection, repair and I am good to go again.
I'd second the comment on the Motorola S9. I got the S9 to go with my old magician, but now that I've upgraded to the Touch, things are even better.
The S9 workd flawlessly for stereo music and also as a regular hands free headset. I can't tell you how many times I've been out jogging, litening to music and I get a cal from people. They say the call sound quality is good, but always wonder why I'm breaking fast.
I hve changed to HTC BH S100 (in-ear is better for jogging)
sound quality is good, no problems...yeah should be no problems when using HTC stuff only ;-)
i found the Motorola S9s to be outstanding. I have never been so happy with a BT headet.
Sony DR-BT30 Q
Got it for 34 euro's and they make me happy.
Good reach on the touch compared to my wizard
I recently purchased a Sony Ericsson Akono Headset HBH-608 from eBay (around £10, second hand but not been used), and would recomend it! Easy to use, good battery life, all the buttons work, and the voice dialing works with my Artemis too!
I thought it might be a good idea to start a thread for this, so that people trying to find a compatable headset will have somewhere to look
So, if you have a Bluetooth headset you would like to recomend, just post details here.
Cheers!

tHOSE ARE AWSOME... REPLACEable aa battery.. I use them with phillips headphones...
love them..
Jabra BT8010
I am using Jabra BT 8010 with Artemis. It has A2DP too, so I can listen music as well as using it as headset. It has support for Stereo music too..
BlueAnt Z9
Use a Blueant Z9 with 02 Orbit and calls are very clear, it also has voice isolation which is great in noisy areas. Also commands via Z9 activate very well with Microsoft Voice Command v1.6 UK software
