Has anybody tried and got the Sony Ericsson MW600 to work? I can listen to music and it is seen as a music headset but no calls? it will not connect as a hands-free phone-kit?
I tried to shuffle through all the blue-tooth and connections settings but I can not find any solution?
Any help is very appreciated.

Hello Robert_it.
I've bought it today before seeing your post.
It works as bluettoth headset with calls.As i can remember it shows two devices when you search for bluetooth.I choose the second and it works ok.The problem is how to set bluetooth on phone to be always on .
Hi nsourm,
Thanks for your reply.
This is my second SE Bluetooth I also had the prevoius non-OLED one and loved it.
I have paired up the audio with 2 phones and my Laptop and started up by pairing the second phone..
What I did not know is that you shuffle the Phone and the audio seperatly as I was not using the first on with 2 phones. So it was all down to finger trouble
To activate what audio you want long-hold the "play/pause" button and select (I knew that one) to shuffle the Phone, long-hold the "talk" button to select the phone you want.
This way you can hear music from any of the 3 devices and connect to any of the 2 phone's separately
I did just asume that I was connected to both phones at the same time??
Not a big problem, I still love this little player
The conclusion must be, as in most cases, if in doubt..... READ THE MANUAL!!!

Track names
Hello:
Does this headset show you the track names?.
Mine doesn't show them at all. Also, if someone calls me, it only shows the number, but not its name.

As far as I know this is a well known compatibility problem between Android and these headsets and I heard both the problems you describe are fixable. Have not found the time to google this yet though... if I find something I'll let you know.
Nevertheless this is a great headset with virtually no weaknesses other than its lack of water resistance.

Well, I bouught one from ebay but I still don't have the Atrix with me. I only expect I will be able to volume up and down, answer a phone call and change tracks.

Couldn't find any fix for this issue.
But you're right, its a great headset ^^.
@joyo22
It does all of that, plus you have a fm radio. You can also fast forward or rewind.
Great buy.

It is an excellent accessory and works perfect with Atrix, I have it and do everything
1. identifies the incoming call
2. The FM radio works perfect
3. open and change the songs on the cell
4. autonomy is very good load
5. sound quality is good
6. the charger is the same cell so stay with 2 chargers.
Among others it is a good buy I recommend it
Hello all --
I'm trying to check if a problem I'm having with my S3 is hardware or software (and see therefore if it's possible to fix.)
If you're running a custom ROM and have a car with Bluetooth and a stereo with an Aux in:
-Connect your phone to the stereo via the proper cable and start listening to music
-Turn on Bluetooth
Try to make a call (or receive one) via Bluetooth.
With the stock firmware, the music cuts off when a call comes in or goes out, but you can't hear the caller (and they can't hear you).
I'd like to know if this is the case with custom ROMs for the S3, or if it's a unique problem with the stock software.
Thanks for your help!
Can anyone confirm? Seems like a pretty common issue, but I can't get Samsung or Sprint to give an answer on whether it can be fixed or not...

i can try to verify this in either a couple hours or tomorrow morning at latest.
Does not happen for me, but I am running custom rom. FreeGS3
Thanks Naddict -- so you can listen to music via the headphone jack and make calls over bluetooth at the same time? Good to know -- and it gives me hope that hands-free calling may be possible on my S3.

Hi all,
After an extensive search around the web and these forums I have not found a solution to my problem. In a weak moment, I spilled a small amount of water on my Verizon Galaxy Nexus and my internal microphone was broken as a result. The broken microphone left me with a horrible static sound during calls and the person on the other end unable to hear me. However, when I use the phone on speakerphone, calls work fine. I'm assuming this is because the speakerphone uses a different mic (i.e. the camera mic?). I've thoroughly tested to make sure that the microphone is broken by wiping completely, going all the way back to stock 4.0, and checking the microphone on each of the following iterations of Android. I went to Verizon and had my SIM card swapped out to no avail. After the problem failed to fix itself, I re-rooted and am now running CM 10.1.
Anyway, as a user of Groove IP for my calls, I started messing around with the settings and found that it allows me to change the default microphone during calls. It allowed me to force the phone to use the camera mic rather than the internal mic and, alas, it worked! I'm sure the quality on the other end is not quite as good but it's the best I'll be able to do at this point. Now, here comes the MOD request.. I'm wondering if any of the amazing devs that frequent this forum could take a look through the source code and see if they can force my phone to use the camera mic all the time (via a flashable zip?). This would allow me to use it not only during calls but throughout my system as well (i.e. voice search, text to speech). This would really extend the life of my device and I'd love to buy somewhere a beer or two for helping me out.
If you want to see how Groove IP does it, the mic source settings are in Groove IP (lite or pro) troubleshooting section of the settings. Thanks in advance!

Im preety sure thats a software glitch you have there my friend the speaker and normal phone use the same microphones as far as i am aware. The reason it may work in speaker phone only is because the galaxy nexus has a microphone on the top and bottom of the handset. Which mic is not working. I need specifics.
Hmmm... Okay, I didn't know it uses a second mic other than for noise cancellation. I was assuming it was the bottom mic, and I test it by using the Sound Recorder app and all I get is static. I can record videos with audio just fine, which is how I know the camera mic works. It would certainly be a curious software issue, considering the problems occurred immediately after the water damage, but I'm open to it. How do you think I can test the different internal mics to see which one is/isn't working?

From what I know now it sounds like a hardware issue. I highly recommend buying a replacement. Im not quite sure what youy expect from a mod or something. Could you explain. Ill try to help as best I can.
p.s. also I just posted my new project HERE for the galaxy nexus and im not sure if the download link works for anyone but me on my google drive. would you mind at least testing the downlod link for me? Thanks!

here this might help: replacement mic
Well that replacement mic could certainly be an option, I appreciate the link. I can also confirm that your download works as well.
But what I'm looking for is this, some sort of mod that will deactivate the broken (internal mic) and tell the phone to automatically use the camera mic in all situations in which a mic would be needed. Basically tell the phone it only has the one mic. I'm not sure if this is possible or even plausible, but I appreciate your help either way.

You will need a special sort of mod. Im not sure if there are any out there. I could take a look into making one for you, if you like (no garuntees).
P.S. Thanks for trying the link.
Anything you can do would be greatly appreciated.. Even if you get in there and decide it's too much work, that's fine. If it won't work then maybe I'll try that replacement mic, though I'm not sure I have the steady hands or the technology to pull off a job like that.

You can replace the mic for under $15 so it isnt too bad price wise. Do a google search locally for computer or phone shops. You can often time get them to replace it for like $50, but its garunteed to be properly installed. Doing it yourself isnt very hard if you have a good instruction ste and the proper tools.
Yeah, that would definitely be better than getting a new device before I'm ready. Thanks.

So I replaced the USB and mic to no avail... The same problem persists. Major static on phone calls until set to speaker phone and nothing but static recorded with the sound recorder. I suppose it's a problem with another piece of hardware or actually a software issue. I've rooted, un rooted, wiped, and wiped some more, so I'm suspicious it's a hardware issue.
Is it possible or even plausible to make a (flashable) mod that tells my device to only use the camera microphone (or the other mic?) for all situations in which a mic is required? I'd be willing to throw a beer or two (or whatever your poison) your way as this would really extend the life of my device.

I have the same exact issue!
I've been looking everywhere for the past month to find anyone else with this problem... I can't believe i missed this post somehow. For me it started after i put my head to my phone after a shower. I wasn't sure it was from this as i had recently started using a new ROM as well as an extended battery from Hyperion.
I have attempted replacing both the headset speaker ( the one used when you put the phone to your ear) which includes the second microphone and that didn't help, and i just tried replacing the microphone and that didn't help either.
I have also attempted going to earlier ROMs and that didn't help.
I have been wondering if flashing a different radio may help, though i figured it probably is not related to the radio as the calls sound fine on the speaker mode. Have you discovered anything else with your phone?

Unfortunately, nothing has changed. I've accepted the fact that I can only use my phone on speakerphone. The most disappointing part of it is that I can't use voice actions on my phone.

I should also note that since I first notice this issue, I also noticed my phone slow to detect the charger after plugging it in. Instead of it being to charge almost immediately after plugging it in, it take about 10-15 seconds before it detects it. This problem persisted even after replacing the micro usb component.

I also had the same issue with my Samsung galaxy s4 I thought it was a software glitch but finally figured it out as a hardware issue.my bottom calling mic is broken but top mic is working via speaker mode so I am looking for the same solution.if you got any kindly reply that will be greatly appreciated.
Hi all,
Quick question, has anyone experienced issues with the microphone while using Skype or Hangouts after the latest (last week's) OTA for Europe?
At first I thought it was bad design on a case I got, but the issue persists even without the case (and there actually is a hole in the plastic for the mic), tried Hangouts to make sure it wasn't just Skype, so I'm thinking it might have to do with the OTA update.
The mic wasn't doing wonders with capturing before, but it appears to be unusable for Skype now unless the tablet is held at the same distance as a phone.
On a relevant note, is anyone aware of any tools that could help adjusting mic gain or disabling the automatic gain control/ noise cancellation features?
ROM is stock LG, rooted.
Me too
Same here with the exact same setup.
I've tried alsamixer but this proves useless until you know witch setting is involved among hundreds of available mixers.
I wonder if an external bluetooh or USB microphone is not a better option.
EiZ
Same issue
I just recently got the G pad and I definitely have a problem with the mic. Is this happening on all the G pads or do you think is a hardware issue on my device?
I tried with Skype and Hangouts and my voice was barely audible on the other end. Just to make sure it was not my internet connection I tried with my old trusty Galaxy S2, no problems there so it is definitely a problem of the G Pad.
I have no screen, warming, yellow lines, light bleeding or any other issue. So, the device is perfect except for the mic, do you think it is worth to take it back to the shop to exchange it for a new one or this will not cure the mic problem?
Any luck tweaking the mic in software btw? Finally, has anybody tried to use a bluetooth headset and microphone with it, is it possible?
Thanks!
I am also having mic issues currently on sw ver v50010a.
it seems very quiet. update is downloading so will see how it compares.
I'm on software ver V50010b and I keep having issues with the microphone.
Don't know what to do... the rest of the tablet is perfect, so I'm afraid to exchange it just for this issue and get a new one with more problems.

Is anyone else having problems with Bluetooth Audio on Kitkat. Mine glitches quite oftemn with my Sony MW600 headphones and also my Bose Soundlink 2 Speaker, I didn't notice it before KitKat? I have also tried the Headset-Bluetooth-Fix_CWM but no change really?
Any solutions out there? anyone else using similar Hardware to mine without problems?

Hi,
I also have all sorts of problems with bluetooth, but I have not been able to find a good fix. To me it seems like issues with 4.4.2 and not specifically the Galaxy Note II. Looking at a LG forum, some guys adviced that switching off WIFI seemed to help. I have tried it out for one of my problems (microphone on BT headset stopping in the middle of a phone call), and it actually seemed to help. You could try it out.
Initially I thought it was issues with a Sony SBH-52 headset, but now that I also have issues (though different) with a Jabra Play, I have come to the conclusion that it must be the phone (software).
I am in contact with my local Samsung support team, and trying to see if they want to take the phone in for service.
Good luck!
