Hi, I am planning to buy a bluetooth stereo headset mainly for listening to music.
Therefore, I want the headset to have A2DP and the headset button's can function properly and sync with the captivate.
My first choice is the motorokr s305... I want to verify first if the buttons (play/pause, volume up/down, and mainly NEXT/PREVIOUS button) are working properly with captivate...
By priority, I want to be able to 'next' and previous my songs, mute/volume button, and then play/pause button...
If there are any other recommendations, please let me know!
TIA
I have been using the sony ericsson hbh-ds205 for a couple years now and it works perfectly with captivate. Has all those features your looking for but the best part is you can plug in your own headphones cause it has 3.5mm jack. Which is great cause i can also hook it up to my home stereo system via rca to 3.5mm and hook it up to my car stereo. Has Mic and the play button is play/pause/and answer. With a clip too, to clip to shirt or wherever. Music quality is excellent too
Battery life is great too 8hrs continuous music playback (i think) and like 15 days of standby. Seems like more though I get two days of music listening at work on one charge.
Check it out. Might be hard to find now. I only saw em on Amazon and eBay. I recently got another one from eBay for 40 bucks cause my wife put it through the wash it still worked too just wouldn't hold a charge after that.

thanks for the reply.. but the bluetooth that u recommend is very rare on the market... T_T
T-Mobile just got in some Plantronics Backbeat 903+ stereo headsets. I bought one and it works great with my Vibrant and Captivate.
Works great with Pandora, track forward play/pause and volume up/down.
Give it a look, they're $99.
just got the motorola rokr s10 today and love it, sounds great and synced right up with my captivate of cog 2.2 v6

wa.. thats too expensive for my budget... how bout the previous backbeat? it has mixed review, some say good some say bad...
http://www.ama zon.com/Plantronics-903-US-BackBeat-Headphones/dp/B001TK3AC0
its only 48$...
the motorola S9 was one of my choice too, but since a new one is coming out, i will wait until the price hit around 40-50$
Rocketfish makes good Bluetooth headphones for music.

there is a "newer" version of it
its called MW600
not really a newer version but it works just like that one
look up amazon for reviews
i bought one and it works well for me
I have the Motorola S9-HD pair, and they are awesome. My wife has the Backbeat 903's. I can say that the S9's are WAY better.

Wow dude just saw that i think im gonna get that now for sure cause im such a fan of the old one and the new one has even better battery life full buttons instead of a rocker and caller id...sick! Im sold im convinced these are the best bluetooth devices for music listening. Thanks for the tip!

so, with the sony erricson one, you pause play volume up and down using the thing that u clipped on your clothes? i dont like the idea of touch volume control, but i almost never adjust my volume so it will not be a problem with me, lol...
im going to think about this headset, very interesting! the only down for me is, i dont like plug type headset because i dont know why my left ear cant "plug" the headset in, it always came off, even though i already put smaller rubber cap thingy so it can fit in (my left ear hole is smaller than my right one)
Just wondering if the in ear headset that comes with the phone is any good?
It looked plain in the unboxing videos, so what's the sound like?
Could someone take a close up picture of theirs or link me to the exact headset?
Thanks
Compared to other out of the box headsets its one of the best ive had, decent bass, crisp. All the SE phones ive had have always come with a decent headset. I can only use the type that push into your ears so that was another plus.
Does it have a remote for changing songs and stuff or is it only a mic?
A link to the headset would be appreciated
No controls, thats the downside to it. Only a mic and call answer button. I use my liveview as the controls though
Yeah I wanted to get liveview since there's no control.
Is it worth it? Any downsides to liveview?
I'd only use it for changing songs, messages and incoming calls. What you reckon?

Try Headset Button Controller Trial from android market
it allows you to 2 presses to skip track , 3 presses to go back etc.
long press to increase volume
Swap my mm70 earbuds with the arc stock with a bit of soldering. Check out youtube.
Now i am happy with the headphone

I've tried my beats with controltalk with this phone and the sound is all garbled up.
Anyone else experience that with other headsets?
The ones that come stock are ok. but I miss my ability to control songs (fast forward, rewind, volume up/down) that I had with my iPhone 4.

I've heard of a few people who complain of garbled sound with non SE headphones in Arc/Play.

That's really an awesome app. Works brilliant. I think you have to buy it, though. At least it started annoying me with some "your trial has expired" messages.
Stock earphones are quite good, though they look/feel really cheap. ^^
They look pretty much like SE MH710 on the pictures, but I'm not sure if they are the same.
The arc stupidly reverse the ground and mic wiring thats why other headsets dont work on it. Try to hold the mic button down you will get nice sound.

Wow! So THIS is why I haven't been able to use other headsets! That is very sneaky of SE.. I hope this is a software issue rather than intentional to force users to only buy SE headsets
My old Android phone also had this problem so I do not think it is a SE issue...
(Motorola Backflip)
It seems with the 2.3.3 update they don't even let you use these "incompatible" headsets, it just displays "Accessory not supported".
I used samsung and motorola headsets with no problem.

there HAS to be a fix for this! i cant stand the headset that comes with it, i hate those in ear noise cancelling things, make my ears feel weird! lol
but seriously, im having to use a normal pair of earphones with no control because of this issue, i have a liveview for controls but thats not always practical (dissconection issues/battery life/running the risk of smashing it to pieces when im skating!)
i have a set of iphone headphones i really wanted to use but because of this ****ty issue i cant. is there a way we could easily modify the headset and reverse the wiring in them ourselves?
We can use normal earphones ? If so, I'm not overly concerned.

Yes anything with a regular 2 channel 3.5mm Jack (headphones/speakers) work fine. I would have taken the phone back if this problem effected normal jacks too as I plug my phone into car stereos and portable speakers, but I'm still pissed off I can't use anything with an inline remote

Why don't you use stereo bluetooth hedset MW600. 3.5 mm jack on them is compatible with all wired headphones unlike 3.5 mm jack on arc and portable speakers.
Which is the best bluetooth headset which works with Galaxy Note? I want one can let me listen to music, talk in the phone and it has buttons to control volume & songs changing. Please kindly suggest some, thanks.
I have the SE MW600, I didn't get my Note yet but I have read in this forum it works well with the note.
A very nice BT headset with Called ID Display as a bonus
I'm using a Blueant T1 (http://www.myblueant.com/products/headsets/t1/) and it works fine with the Note.
I make no claims to how good it is compared to other BT headsets as its the only one I've owned, but it certainly works more than good enough for what I need.
EDIT: Wait, you need song changing too? Cancel the T1... it has volume up/down, and a voice command button (which doubles as accept/end call) but no media buttons.
yes, I need to one change songs with it as well. I want the Bluetooth headset as two side in-ear, I listen to mp3 alot, but the original headset has a cable and it always blocking me, that's why I want a bluetooth one.

so, Sony Ericsson is working for Samsung? How's the sound? I am picky in sound.
Oh well, for me, the sound is pretty good. But I am far from being picky
I have SE MW600, its voice quality is not that good (far end usually complains from low voice). in addition I'm facing trouble with it with me nexus one (It hangs up if I receive a missed call without till I restart it again). I think it's not good with Android as I tested it on non-Android device it worked good
I use the Nokia BH905, which is quite pricy, but the sound quality is excellent and works fine with the Note.

Yea, they do work with the standard music player, never tested it with Spotify, although they ain't seperate buttons (long press next = ff, long press last = rewind.)
Just got the note today and, for me, if works great with the mw600.
Voice quality is great by my standards and track info shows but not caller name.
I have ordered the JayBird Freedom headset. I mainly want to use it for music and audio books. Once I have received it I will provide some feedback on how well it works with the Note.
I use this:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0052XQFKE/
It's convertible meaning you can use it in your ear as a typical BT headset, attach the provided stereo headphones for music (includes a mic) or there is also an adapter that allows you to plug in any headphones you want. I drop the BT unit in my shirt pocket while listening to my Bose QC15's. Powers them quite well (9-hour battery life).
Highly recommened, especially since I got them for $10 after rebate.

I'm a big fan of the Sony Ericsson MW600, but I don't like the slides-volume-thing...
I hope WP7.8/WP8 will soon get an update so all mics/music controls work as they should (or as they do on an iPhone, which has set a standard for lots of accessoires).
Jaybird BT Freedom 3 has excellent sound quality and reasonable battery life (about 5 hours of music). They're also sweatproof, which is nice for running. Check it out.

Hi, anyone know if in the headphones AKG Q460 the play/pause and next/previous track buttons work in android (SGS2)?

same question
If you download an app like 'Headset Controller App' you can use any 3 button remote and mic on Android. The app recognises and configures any buttons to whatever functions you want, real handy, use it all the time on my HTC desire S with 'Made for iPhone' earphones, no problems
one more question.
I've some problem with mobile-headphones. The standart headphone they without mic and has just 2 lines on TRS 3.5 but mobile headphone has 3 lines on TRS 3.5.
The problem is when I connect my samsung\black-berry headphones to my MP3 Iaudio I7 so I hear very very weak until I click some buttom on the cable of headphone.
will I get same problem with this headphone on my I7 or PC?

Are you really sure about this ? I have read mixed reports on Headset Controller Button. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. Seems to depend on the headsets, and also on the android smartphone.
I'm desperately trying to find if a AKG headset (Q460 or K451) can be made to work (all 3 buttons) with my Xperia Arc S. This info seems just IMPOSSIBLE to find right now !!!
Sorry for the late answer, But I am registered since only a few minutes.
Try it with the included Nokia-Adapter. This works fine on my xperia x10 mini.
If you upgrade your phone to the newest version of android, they will definitely work. Tried it already

Hi
I have an Xperia SL and this is not working...
I can stop/play the music, but cannot receive calls and no one hears me when I speak to the phone's mic.
is there a way to solve it?
I'm using AKG Q460
thanks
I have the Q460 and Galaxy S3.
The Play/Pause/Next Track function works. The Mic and Vol control does not.
The Q460 was made for the Iphone/Ipod with a 4 pole jack.
The limitation is a physical (wired) connection that is not present on the Android phones.
Bear in mind the headset was also tuned for the Iphone4/5 - sound will be weaker and distorted on my Galaxy-for example - but sounds OK with PC/Kindle Fire output.
I ordered a headphone amp for my S3 to fix that problem.
If you want phone functions on android get an AKG model that supports the android phones of which there are several.

In the last 6-7 months I reviewed a few dozen of headphones with fixed or removable iDevice cables and EVERY single one worked on my Note 2 w/android 4.1.2. I mean, volume up/down will not work because iDevices use different resistor values in the remote, but multifunction button worked perfectly for play/pause/call, double click to skip, and long press for Google Now. I was under impression Galaxy S3 was supporting 4pole jack as well with extra control signal. So Vol not working is expected, but I wonder if something is wrong with your mic?
Btw, how do you like Q460? I just did search, seems to be bass oriented, not much of mids/treble details (I only trust Tyll's reviews: http://www.innerfidelity.com/content/akg-quincy-jones-k460)

I just took a second look at my s3 factory earbuds, thanks to you, and they sure do have 4 poles. Two of the four are supposedly reversed on iPhone, as has been stated elsewhere. So the issue is still wiring in my opinion, Different resistor values- not sure but sounds like it would be an issue, no pun intended. I did not test my mic so I cannot say that it does not work, so I stand corrected. Which leaves me with the same observations that you had with the i devices cords. I stay with my original contention- that no "App " will fix this.
As far as reviews I listened carefully to two tracks looking for bias/distortion : " Animus Vox" by the Glitch Mob which carries the full spectrum and "Them Shoes" studio version, by Patrick Sweany, which focuses on voice, mid, and highs. I detected no bias toward lows, and the mids, highs were crisp. These phones, remember, were marketed for accuracy, not as "beats killers", and I am not disappointed.
There are a number of heavy hitter reviewers that agree with me so I would have to say they are real scientists
I ordered an aftermarket cable to replace the short cable that comes with the phones, the one without the Vol control.
And my headphone amp will be here tomorrow night (FiiO E12 Mont Blanc Portable Headphone Amplifier ).
One caveat : I expect these phones to sound even better with a CD since the lousy compression of Pandora or Amazon MP3's should not be used to review headphones.
Then, there gotta be a difference between S3 and N2/N3/S4. I would not be surprised that starting with N2 Samsung "aligned" poles to work with apple in-line remote. I can tell you with 100% certainty that every single headphone I tested (check out my signature link to all my reviews on XDA, also a sticky in this accessories forum section) with iDevice in-line remote worked perfectly with my Note 2 and also with S4 when I had that one for review from Verizon. Volume didn't work, but multi-function play/pause/call button did.
Regarding resistor values, take a look at this link. They go over in high details about it: http://www.instructables.com/id/Galaxy-Nexus-and-others-headset-remote-with-medi/

Hey guys, i've a question i'm planning to buy sony erricson mw600 bluetooth for galaxy note but there are few questions that i want to ask is:
1) whether all the keys like volume etc work fine with it?
2) how is the sound quality in terms of music and calls.
3) is there an option of fast forwarding and skipping of songs.
4) what about the range of Bluetooth?
Please guys help me out and if there is any other better option available than mw600 (similar to it) than do suggest me.

Yes, no problem
2) how is the sound quality in terms of music and calls.
Very good quality
3) is there an option of fast forwarding and skipping of songs.
Hold forward or backward
4) what about the range of Bluetooth?
Like others, 12 meters and no problem.
Everything is ok ! Buy it
You have radio function too with the mw600.
IMHO, a very good bluetooth kit, good song for daily use.
(Sorry for my poor English).

I don't like the fact the clip is so sensitive, always clicked when clip on .

All the functions work, play/pause, skip/last, volume, call send and end, etc.
Sound quality is great, I love the fact you can use any earbuds thanks to the 3.5mm jack. I use some pretty high-end in ear modules and they sound really good. The buds that come with the module sound decent as well.
Yes you can fast forward (long press) or just skip, with a single click of the forward button.
Bluetooth range, covers my small apartment with no issue. So 30 feet or so?
I'm loving this with my note, having to take out the note to control my music was getting really bothersome, now I can leave it in my pocket
Wanted to like it but the touch sensitive volume adjust was a big no no
I have one and love it volume sensitivity isn't an issue for me.

First, it don't have the clip attachment so it very comfortable.
Battery life is not bad,I didn't really tested how long it last but it good for me.
when using as the Mic for the phone, no compliant from the other end.
Sound it good for music using with Poweramp which have the equalizer.

I have a set of MW600, which I think are excellent.
I did look at the IS800's, but they had one massive flaw in comparison IMO, and that is that unlike the MW600's, they don't use MicroUSB for charging.
As a frequent traveller, I don't want to carry more chargers than is strictly necessary, and having to carry a dedicated charger for a tiny set of headphones just doesn't work for me.

That's a valid point. For me I'm fine with that.

range of bluetooth seems pretty excellent. Interestingly the quality isn't much worse than the output from the headphone jack on the note itself (which is appalling, but just to make the point).
Something I would love to experiment with is using different headphones with it, as well as using an AOSP bluetooth stack with higher bitpool. Higher bitpool by itself would make the headphones well.. perfect. The DAC on them is no worse than the GNote dac.
I definitely love the fact that they use MicroUSB for charging, as I only need to keep one charger around. I could probably get away with just using one wall adapter for a micro USB cable, and having a portable USB device as well as a single cable to charge two devices on the go.
Battery life is really good, and I've had it last two days before on a single charge. Sometimes (with heavy use) it dies with the note, which is not a problem either
i have the mw600 and use a pair of etymotic hf5 with it and love it

That Sony looks nice. For me the point of wireless headphones would be no Clip on unit and less cables which i like about the is800's .

The only issue I have with the mw600 is that - as I am a frequent traveller too and I use a second phone with a local SIM card - it can not connect simultaneously with two phones, although it can be paired with two phones.
It can only connect to one phone and one other device, like a computer or particularly in my case with a Motorola Xoom.

I have a ViewSonic V350 backup phone which I use when travelling as it has dual SIMs!
It's not a stellar handset in and of itself (poor screen), but it is ideal when travelling.
