[Q] BT Stereo Headset for 02 ATOM

Hi all,
There was problems with the BT Stereo headsets for 02 ATOM with the previous ROM. I would like to poll everyone's opinion if the latest ROM updates have resolved the problems, and which headset is now working beautifully with ATOM.
Please advise, thanks!!!!

itech BT stereo headset works good with my Atom

BT headset Logitech 0228A works fine

Voice Dialing Not Working
My Plantronics 640 headset works well, but my Voice Dialer thru the BT headset doesn't work with the 0402606 ROM--though it did with the original 0102306 ROM.
Any resolutions?

anyone try with Samsung SBH100? It is a A2DP spec stereo headset. BT 1.2.

Using Motorola HS850 easy connection no problem. But can't get the voice dialing to work.

Jabra BT620s w/ latest firmware
* A2DP - ok but random hiccups. Perfect quality with Pc
* Vol - Too soft on Atom, had to preamp. Perfect quality with Pc
* AVRCP - Perfect but only in WM10
* Phone - Sometime fail to answer a call by headset when music still playing, must manual
We wish the next firmware would improvise the A2DP, great feature but buggy...

bro, how much u paid for the jabra bt620s in SG?

Third headset and no success
I need a small headset, what I can use for Skype on my Atom and to listen to mp3. How's the Plantronic 640 working? Does it support the A2DP profile? I don't wanna have one of these big Stereo BT Headsets... I also tried the btaudio program, what works perfectly for the sound, but the mic quality is too poor, nobody understands me by using skype...
Please give me your recommendations which one works 100% and supports all the features...
Thanks
Ellork

Motorola HT 820 works great with Atom Exec. Audio is loud and clear with lots of bass, and WMP 10 pauses on incoming call (press left button to answer) and resumes after hangup (press left button again). Good thing is you only hear beeps for incoming call not a 110db ringtone...You can use your Atom charger to charge the headset too.

hi guys, "BT headset" + Atom will get "real" stereo sound, right ???? I know that Atom does not have bluetooth with "A2DP".

[Q] Skype call with Nimbuzz and bluetooth headset

Is it possible, and how, to configure Nimbuzz (or Android) to use bluetooth headset for audio instead of the phone speaker and mic when using Skype call?

This would be nice but I'm afraid it doesn't work...

solution
I have N1 froyo stock rom and I make calls with nimbuzz through skype account using a bluetooth stereo headset. Any sound will go through your bluetooth stereo headset, I have two of them (car & home). The good thing using it in my car is the voice directions from navigation app goes thought it, speaker sound quality on N1 is horrible.
Now, if you have froyo device you also can install "Super BT Mono Froyo Free" from the market. This app route audio through bluetooth mono headset, but it's a trial version. You have 5 days free trial so you can try it and if it works for you then you can buy it.
Good lock.

Nomo, thanks for the answer. You pointed me in the right direction. Obviously the answer is simple: in order to use mono Bluetooth headset for listening audio other than phone call, on Android, that BT headset needs to support A2DP. One of those acronyms for which I thought "why would I need this weird four-letter thingy" when I bought my Plantronics 975
Now just to wait for aforementioned app to become mature enough…

[Q] iphone headset on MT4?

I bought Sennheiser MM60 for iphone. The sound is exceptionally good (same as PX100 and PXC100) with detachable cable (you can use the mic unit with other headphones).
The only problem is the calling button doesn't work. It can only control music player (either stock player or winamp).
What iphone headset do you use and how does it work?

Interesting. What, specifically, is happening with the headset? I've had good luck with a few iPhone headsets, particularly ones with just the play button like the v-modas I have right now. I normally use the SE MW600 Bluetooth headset, and I've noticed that the call button brings up the menu option of either the Genius Button or Google's voice software. Is that what you're getting when you use the button?

I got music player activated when the button pressed once (it can be the last track it played or play audio randomly.
I am supposed to receive Bose MIE2 today and post the result later.
The purpose of this thread is to share the experience what brand and model of wired (bluetooth excluded this time) headset used and how does it work.
update:
I just received Bose MIE2. The button control is the same (doesn't work on calling, but it works with music control).

So it doesn't work on calling at all? It can't take a call, place a call, or answer one? When double-click my v-moda, it places a call to the last number dialed out. It also works with answering calls. I have the Vibe Duo:

I haven't tried the stock ear buds because that design isn't particularly comfortable to me.

I have the gunmetal & red ones myself and I couldn't be happier. They work like a charm with the 4g. I did just lose the little pouch they came with though

[Q] Recommendation: Which Bluetooth headset to buy (have to work with Voice Dialing)

Hi
My current Jabra Arrow Bluetooth headset doesn't work with the sgs2 voice dialing (Voice Talk). I can fire up Voice Talk from the headset, but the sound/voice from Voice Talk doesn't appear in the headset.
Anyone who can recommend a good Bluetooth Headset for sgs2 that works flawless with Voice Talk?

I have got SE MW600. I love it. I haven't used the voice talk option as it doesn't support Finnish. But I can try it for you.
How do I fire it up? I heard you should be able to do it by saing hello galaxy but it won't launch. First have to start it? Does it stay in the background after that eating my battery?

Thanx!
Just hold down the button on your headset, that should fire up Voice Talk!

Good news about the mw600. Mine arrives tomorrow

MW600. Stand alone FM radio, long battery life (for bluetooth), v good quality audio, tiny and light, supports track ID, voice calling. Not a great clip or volume adjustment. Overall the best. Buy it, end of.

Yes, yes, yes: The recommendation of MW600 is overwhelming
But, please, spell it for me: Does the MW600 work flawless with Voice Talk? Is it actually possible to hear the voice from Voice Talk in the earplug and can you command the phone (dialing contacts) from the headset without problems?

Yes it does, you can hear confirmation through the bluetooth headset on the MW600. I bought a Blueant T1 today and it also works with confirmation over bluetooth headset.
The T1 also works by just saying "hey galaxy" not sure about mw600.
Sometimes the T1 says "this feature is not supported on this handset" but you can still call people through voice command. It also gets a bit annoying having to say voice command and waiting for the T1 to say "activating voice commands on the connected headset" then saying call contact.

Thanx, that was just the answer I was hoping for! Unfortunately I can't get the Blueant T1 here in Denmark, but Ebay might be my friend

I presently have the Sony which works very well with the G2x, but I would prefer a cord-free unit and so got the Nokia BH-505. My SGS2 will be arriving on Friday, and I am hoping the Nokia would rock with this phone.

Voyager Pro+ which is available on amazon is the best bluetooth headset which allows multipoint and a2dp as well. I might have used 13 or 14 headsets and this is the best even for noise cancellation, one word amazing.

I have had no joy with a Motorola H700 and a BlueParrot VXi Expressway. When initiating a call by pressing the button on the headset the audio/mike used is the one on the phone, and not on the headset.
I cannot believe Samsung still has this problem: a couple of years ago I had an Omnia and only a custom ROM with a different Bluetooth stack solved the problem. My last 2 HTC phones worked flawlessly...
This is an important security issue for me, and if anyone has information on what can be done ( I am new to Android) I would appreciate it. When I call using my VXi my callers can never detect I am on a cellphone:noise cancelling on this unit is outstanding, and I want to continue using it.
But if I find nothing to solve this I will have to go with one of the headsets confirmed to work in the maner they should...

BlueAnt Q2
it even come with an Android app

Currently have problems with Plantronics Discovery 975, low quality and stuttering sound. (Not what you asked about but perhaps don't try this unit!)

I have found a workaround to enable Voice Dialing and Digit Dialing from a Bluetooth Headset on my SGS2:
I purchased Cyberon Voice Commander and Titanium backup from the Market.
Titanium backup anables me to <freeze> the vLingo Voice Command so that it disappears from the installed apps, and installing Cyberon enables everyting I want:
- Tapping the button on the headset starts Voice Commander
- Bluetooth headset is connected to Audio and Mic
- I can say: "Call Jim", or "Digit Dial 8045551212", or "What time is it", etc.
The number of available commands is not as numerous as I had under Winmo and Microsoft VoiceCommand, but it suits me for now and the recognition rate is 99.99% with my Vxi Headset.
Be aware that this breaks all VLingo Voice Recognition apps in the phone because <it is no longer there>.
What I would prefer, and will continue searching for, is to have the headset button start Cyberon Voice Commander (since it handles the bluetooth stack correctly), while leaving VLingo active for other applications.
I am sure there is a setting somewhere that controls what application is started when the Headset button is tapped.
Of course none of this would be required if VLingo handled the Bluetooth headset correctly...

Hi, just to let you know. I ended up buying a BlueAnt Q2 headset, and it just works without problems with voice talk!
Thank you for all your Help!

Seems like the T1 would be superior to the Q2 thanks to the noise reduction; is this right?
I'm convinced enough to buy ONE of the Blueants.

Q2 & T1 are top of the line
T1 is though because it's rugged & have slightly better battery life but it has simple voice commands
remember T1 doesnt come with ear hook so you can't attach it to your ear...
you can get a sweet deal on ebay for the Q2

Thanks garden jean,
I lost something in translation though...
It seems to me that both come with voice control (is one better than the other?), both have ear hooks (according to Amazon), so the differences are that the Q2 (Edit: sorry, T1) is rugged and the T1 has noise cancellation.
Is that right?
Can anyone say which they think is best from a usability point of view?

Headset.

What headset with three buttons work in our 7aktive ?

I think it's any Samsung Headset. BT headset will be much better. Level U Pro, for example.
