Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 - music skips

I have posted this at the sony ericsson site but got no reasonable replies.
I have P3600, WM6, ROm 3.00.707.17. i paired it with my SE Bluetooth headset. when i play music, it skips every 20-30 seconds, and then after 10-15 min play time, it skips even more.
i repaired it several times but still same problem. anyone has problem playing music via BT and/or with this particular SE headset.

thanks! i just installed A2DPfix, yet it still skips.

NO more skipping after 20 min of play. YAY!

hi again,
after i installed A2DPFix a month ago, my music has been playing without much skipping until recently. i do not know what changed, but it skips 3-4 times in the beginning of each song. it's sporadic, sometime it skips and sometime it does not.
i have been reading more about A2DPFix.cab here, some people claims it works while others not 100%.
then someone suggested to use pocket player 3.5 and other music player. i am currently trying this new S2P music player
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-s2p.html
this seems to work without skipping except i can not pause, forward and backward using my BT remote headset with this music player. also, i my BT remote does not work with pocket player 3.5.
i am using a SE HBH-DS970, can someone explain to me why the remote for this BT headset only works with window media player and not other music players.
it would be great if i can someone make the remote works with the new S2P player because it DOES NOT skip and it's free.
thanks!!

Hi i use the same headphones from SE. Had this issue many times.
Sometimes it depends on the rom u have. But on schaps rom, i havent
probs with them. Sometimes its skips, then i restart the headphones and
it works again...

you are correct, once in a while when i either restart my mobile phone or headset, still it's a pain and frustrating.
i would really like to know why the SE headset functions (pause, next song, previous song...etc) doe not work with other music players.
i saw the HTC audio manager player and i wonder if this will work with my SE headset?
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-htc-audio-manager-v1-2-515-718.html
would someone please shed some light here as to why my SE headset only works with window media player that comes with the phone (HTC P3600)

Use the HTC AudioManager its easy to handle. WM give me and to the most other
the Database/playlist error.
The buttons works fine with them. I Use only this.
Heard that mortplayer (or similar) works too.
Greets

Pair the device with the phone from the phone, and not let the headset connect automaticly.
In other words:
1: Turn OFF bluetooth on the phone
2: Turn ON headset
3: Wait for a few sec
4: turn ON bluetooth on phone
5: Press and hold on the headset name in the device-list and choose connect or whatever it's called
Now you shouldn't have skipping. (Untill next time...) - Or change rom.

i did what you suggested,
1. turn off bluetooth on the phone
2. turn on headset,
3. wait a few sec
4. turn on bluetooth on the phone
5. press and hold on my headset and choose connect? press and hold does not seem to give me that the "connect" option
anyway, i do 1, 2, 3, 4 and then for
5. i press my headset which connects to my phone
i connect three separate times and it has not been skipping every time.
i guess i am very curious as to why this particular sequence makes a different. any one knows at all????

Hehe! If you search bit, and find threads I've been involved in, you'll se a solution for this problem that I posted out for a long ago... Don't ask me how I managed to debug this, but god damned I was proud Hehe!
But why it works, I don't know Hehe! I guess there is some sort of buffer-error going on when connecting the normal way

i was about to update this thread. i have tried this 3-4 times now per your instructions, and it seems to work every time. THANKS!
i am really happy this works, as i was getting very frustrated with it, and i appreciate your reply.
nevertheless, i am still curious as to why this particular sequences work. i am hoping someone else would enlighten me here.
thanks again !!

Additional reason
From my experience, I did have this same problem as you guys, but I found another thing that really caused the music playback to skip.
Over here, I've actually purchased a counterfeit Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970. I had bought the counterfeit first, and Sony gave me an original for free.
I found that the copy (fake, but in every way looks like the original, except it feels a bit flimsy) tends to skip. I obviously didn't know it was a fake, and I had taken it to Sony to get it fixed. Sony took one look at it and gave me coffee and asked for details of the dealer who sold this counterfeit. Then, Sony gave me a free original set, just for my help.
Based on my use of both sets, I can safely say that the counterfeit skips, the original doesn't. Wish somebody can explain to me why this happens.

Well, I think what you mean is that the counterfeit skips on your device with your rom, while the original does not skip on your device with your rom
(Since the original one skips as much as a counterfeit one on other trinity-devices
This skipping is most likely caused' by some sort of buffer settings - which seem to be individual from devicetype to devicetype.

Sorry if I make some mistakes...
I've the same problem with my BT Plantronics...
It depends only from the ROM
I haven't any problems with WM5, but some coocked WM6 have this problem, now I am with this and everything works fine...

HD FM Radio - Headset Button Control

Does anyone have a solution as to how to change the FM radio Channel through the Headset Call button??......currently i can only do it on the HD unit itself.
Any solution or link would be nice.
Thanks

hi,
It would be great if someone could reply.
Even I am looking for a similar solution, but for music player.
Currently when i hit the button more then once, it starts calling the last person on my call history.

Thank You.
Finally got something resolved.
I really like the phone, but stupid things, either due to Microsoft or HTC really makes me wonder why cant they get it rite like apple.
I really miss the sensor on i-phone, but as its windows you always have work arounds.
I am using pocket shield. Its good, but still misses one good option.
When the headset is inserted, you cannot disable the answer hard key.
I am trying to check, if there might be any application that can help me with that.
Apart from that the battery life is a bit bad rite now.
I have disabled all the bells n whistles like bluetooth, wifi, active sync,push notifications. but still dont know, why it is still lacking.
One thing I havent tried, is the option to switch off the device,
But the problem is that you have to press the power button everytime to bring it back, then swipe to unlock.
Phew... I knw to many complaints..
But luckily, its a easter weekend, so can search the net to make my phone perfect... heheehheheheh........

Let me know if you find something which changes the FM Radio preset stations with the headset button.

sure. will post rite here.

Even though this is 2 years after the previous post, it may help to say I would also like to have 1 button control for the FM Radio in my Android - ver 3.3.3 Samsung Gio.
If you know if an app has been created in the past 2 years, please let me know.

Best blue tooth headset.

Anyone to recommend a good Bluetooth headset, a set with music controls 3.5mm jack for your own earphones and a display that would display the id3 tags or file name. Of course be able to answer calls.
I'm using a Nokia one at the moment but its not very responsive, dunno if its because of the old Bluetooth 1.0 compatibility.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App

Sony MW600.

Thanks for the recommendation, so I bought a set after reading positive reviews. Connection was easy and very quick and responsive. But one fault is that the phone itself starts ringing on incoming calls the and some signals through the headset. Weird doesn't happen on my old slow unresponsive BT headset (Nokia) at least the phone didn't ring just signals through the headset bit embarrassing when your phone goes off and you answer on a BT headset.
Any settings that could fix this?
I have resetted BT pairing and the headset but still same.
Anybody use this with wildfire?

Are you using any custom roms? I remember that cyanogen rom has some options about ringing in headphones, if I am not mistaken.
Also, did you test it on another phone to see if it's behaving the same way ?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App

I am using Wildpuzzle 0.8. Checked media and phone audio is connected. Have tried it on a Nokia and same thing happens. Can the headset be updated or something? My way round is to mute the phone when I connect the headset but this is so inconvenient when sometimes I forget to reenable sound.

Try this: Do a nandroid back-up and flash CM7. See if the problem still persists.
If not... I`m out of ideas. Maybe try to get a refund?

I have read many threads with same complaint, now realising It's a feature of most new smartphones (dunno whether its just android or not) that phone always rings with Bluetooth headsets just in case for some reason you take out your earphones for some reason.
I'm a little reluctant to switch to cm7 waiting for it to be stable first.

I think it`s normal for a phone to ring via the speaker even with the headset connected. Maybe they just need to add an option for it.
I meant testing CM7, not switching to it completely. A 30 min job to test CM7 and restore nandroid.

Hi
Just got the MW600 as well, very pleased so far.
I have the same issue, phone is ringing as well - whereas it does not really bother me.
There are few things not working well for me, so I was hoping to find here some feedback:
- No Song titles are displayed (not so bad since it is normally clipped in a position where you can not easily check
- the call-button does not work to call somebody, only to take a call
- the play button does not automatically start playing HTC music - but worked with Winamp and Songbird
Any suggestions ?

Original Rom (l have 2.2.1 nie) have Sound quality issue over a2do. HTC support said, I must wait for next update (when they may be fix it)

I'm having an issue with my Plantronics 903+ Bluetooth Headset. They pair and play's music fine , but it cuts out quite alot if i move about. Honestly if I have to sit still I may as well get wired headphones.
I am CM nightly's (71) with the latest radio flashed.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello,
i use Jabra BT3030
http://www.productwiki.com/jabra-bt3030/
3 years of working, without any problem

Ok, I really start to like the SE MW600 a lot
If you get a call music stops and you can take the call with one button.
Double tapping the call button re-calls the last person you phoned - works good as well.
But I am still not having the ideal media player
Original HTC music player fails to start up automatically when you tab the music button
- but next song/pause works well
Songbird opens automatically, next song/pause/... works well but searching in a track not and it is rather heavy making the phone really slow
Winamp is probably the best, but I still think it is too heavy
Does anybody knows a good light media player with bluetooth support ?

BT headset that doesn't try to be clever

Can anyone suggest a BT headset that gives good sound quality and noise reduction?
I have a Blueant Q2 and it's a PoS. It doesn't tell me who's calling, for a start; and because it's so 'clever', if I want to call someone I have to say "Phone commands", wait a bit, then say "Call person". So an extra step for no reason.
I am looking for one that I can press the button and it'll start up Voice Dial (or whatever it's called). All the name recognition etc can be done by the phone, thanks very much.
Does the Jawbone require this extra step/awkward faffing about?
Any others?
Thanks.

I am using Sonyericsson MW600 with my phone, it works great with music anyway. The song title show's on the display... I presume that the contact name will show on the display as well.
Havent made a phone call with it yet so that part I cant tell but I guess it work great there too.

Stock ROM probably won't do it (may need CM7) and even it if does, the stock music player is about the only one that passes the track info to the device.

Plantronics Voyager 855 is a combination of a standard-looking BT earpiece with a second earpiece unit that plugs into the first via a thin nylon reinforced cable to create stereo BT headset. I have owned at least 30 or 35 BT headsets and this is the best one I've had for sound quality, ease of pairing, long battery life, etc. Try Amazon: w w w .amazon.com/gp/product/B000UBNFT2/ref=oh_o03_s00_i01_details

Sony Smart Bluetooth Headset SBH50 Review

Hey guys hows it going?
I just purchased one of the new smart bluetooth headsets from Sony which is the SBH50 model and I received it yesterday. Been using it for a day now. Just here to give you a review.
Now first I wasnt sure if it would work the way I assumed originally or if any of the features were compatible with the Xperia S. But bought it anyway as I mainly need it for calls.
As soon as I took it out of the box I immediately touched the headset to the back of my phone and boom. It was connected immediately. Received a notification to download the companion app. Downloaded and thats it. I was soon enough set up ready to go. So simple.
Sound quality is awesome for calls and music. Even the FM radio. The signal for the radio is also good. Unlike on the mw600 where the radio would cut out because the signal was weak.
When you receive a phone call the number pops up on screen with the name, compared to mw600 would be just the number. The notification for text to speech I still havent tested properly however so far seems to be working. I also havent checked the messaging notifications yet however I have seen the email and gmail notifications.pop up on screen.
The multipoint feature is excellent. You can select one device as a primary device and still receive notifcations from both devices and listen to music from the other.
The battery life is also amazing. Switched it on at 7 am and its still on id say about 75%. Most of thr battery has been consumed by me listening to the fm radio this morning.
Oh and there is an option to view your call log on the device too which is quite nice, especially if you want to ring back a number in the call list.
Build quality is very good I found. Feels slightly plasticy but good quality. Not the cheap plastic feel.
Theres a lot more which can be covered and I will add to this review the more I get to know the device and its features.

Got mine as well few days ago. Lost mw600. Not sure what Sony is thinking with 'smart' range as it regresses, since any bluetooth ever, had double click to redial and long press to voice dial. These, including mw1 are missing those functions. Also in comparison with mw600 now we need app to display contacts (sure not it shows names as well), but permanent ongoing notification in status bar and notifications kills this softaware for me.
As long as it does not allow me to change button options and setup, this smart bluetooth is not gonna be 'simply smart' for the foreseeable future. Opening api for Devs might help.
Also don't understand why bluetooth with basically same features, sans NFC, as mw600, is 30 percent larger in volume, while offering same talk/music times as it.
Rant over!
Basically, only reason I'm keeping it is because of possibility of firmware updates (if mw600 had this it wouldn't be obsolete yet and would buy again. Than again that company does not exist anymore) , making it somewhat future proof. This only applies if Sony keeps their end of the bargain.

I got one of these in the mail this week for my Xperia Z.
I was after a bluetooth unit with a 3.5mm output so i could hook it up to my Logitech Z2300 and control the music from my phone. Works well, only the bluetooth range is up to approx 15m line of sight. It'll do for my home entertaining.
I havent tried yet, but if i can connect my pc to it via BT as well i can play the songs off there too.
I dont really see the need for NFC since pairing with BT is simple enough.
Firmware can be updated on it via SUS.
The instruction manual included doesnt have any operating instructions. Im not 100% sure what the icons in the menu means.
Its very light if youre gonna clip it to your clothing, but to handle it is a little tricky cos it is too light.
Ive seen the Pro version of this, with usb on the end of it, so it can be used as standalone mp3 player. Wish i had seen that earlier.

Well, I am somewhat happy with the SBH50 - I only had the MW600 for a short while before sending it back because of the volume controls.
However, it's terrible that you cannot launch voice dial with the big button (what does it anyway?) and the music controls will launch the standard music app if you hadn't launched a different one on the phone before...
I'm praying that this will become better.

My first one after a few weeks died. Wouldn't switch on at all thankfully Amazon replaced it for me.

Just to get this right- once you've started another app the buttons will control the playback of this particular app or start the default player instead?? (Which would be horrible since I'm exclusively using Spotify)
And something else which got me confused after having read too many reviews: Does the display turn off while listening/having calls? (The MW600 did and I would prefer it this way.)
And a last question especially for the previous MW600 users: Is the SBH50 comfortable to wear? From the pictures the clip doesn't really look secure to be attached compared with the old model..

Hi there. Yes the display turns off after a few seconds in a call, listening to music or when you stop pressing the buttons.
The clip is comfortable to wear however you will either need to clip it on to the neckline/collar of any top or anywhere along the zip line. You can't just clip it anywhere.
