Can anyone recomend a replacement for the standard stero handsfree kit that comes with the MDA Pro.
I've seen these http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/10098.htm, but was wondering if anyone knew of any better ones?
I'm also looking for such a headset. The one on your links looks nice, but is there a volume control on it? I can't see that.
The one in mobilefun.co.uk is just the same as the one came from the box.
There is no other alternative so far I could find....
Though I found one (and I ordered already) from
http://pc-mobile.net/pqtaa.htm
that is for a 3.5mm headphone/mic jack.
So, I will post again if this really fits the Universal....GOOD LUCK!!!
Cheers,
Yeah, the headset fits without any problem.
That is the same as the HP Ipaq 54xx/55xx/63xx/65xx, Toshiba e75x/80x.
Although its a bit expensive, USD33 including postage....
Cheers,
Just out of curiousity, what happened to your hands free kit that came with the unit, guys?
The original one comes with the package is excellent except that it is too lengthy and the pair of earphones always messes with others.
I would like to have a single lead earphone that I can change to stereo when I want.
So, the one that I just got is perfect but it is quite easily to be damage....
Cheers,
:twisted: :twisted: My over excited dog snagged them with a paw when I got home from work and I think she snapped the cable inside the sheathing.
Wired headset with headband with wires
Can anyone recommend a headset for the Universal that
IS NOT BLUETOOTH
Has a headband with good sized speakers, not earbuds and dangly wires
IS NOT BLUETOOTH
Microphone, PTT switch, volume
and isn't bluetooth? i.e. it's wired to the 4 pole jack?
Thanks
Nick
Hi Chris,
Thanks for the info!
I have one of this headset that I bought few years ago for my XDA/Wallaby (with the 2.5mm plug). Yes, its very easy to be damaged (very delicate) but yet mine is still functional until now. Some part of the wire is already torn and I have to put some tape on it.
I use it mainly to connect my XDA/Wallaby to my car stereo system.
Thanks that you share this info, now I know that there is a suitable version for the Universal as well.
Do you mind to confirm back that the headset indeed works perfectly with the Universal:
1. The call answer button
2. The microphone
3. Volume control
4. The stereo jack
I will definately get one if you can help clarify that every point is working fine. Thanks in advance.
Yeah. Everything is fine altough the answer key need more practices.
Good to hear that the info is usefual.
Cheers,
Thanks Chris!
The answer button, you just press it once to pick up a call right?
What special practice do you need?
I sticked my old one (for the XDA) in my car dashboard near the stereo system. So when the phone rings, I just press it once and the call then will be in the car speakers. The microphone is not that great, ppl usually complaint me that my voice is so low, but guess what, they indeed can hear me.

This is exactly what I'm trying to set up in my car,how do I do it? I tried using a splitter (one 3.5 mm male plug with two female 3.5mm openings) and running one end to my car stereo, and the audio from the call comes through the car speakers nicely but I can't use either the mic from the included (in the box) headset for voice nor will the device's mic work...
Hi all.
Just wondering if anyone can help please?
I have an HTC Universal also known as the i-mate jasjar.
I recently have been looking for a headset that works well with this device so bought a Jabra jx10.
Unfortunately it appears this headset isn't totally compatible with the htc universal.
can anyone recommend a headset that has the following features?
As a visually impaired person I need a headset that makes a beep or plays a tone when the headset is turned on or off.
Some of the bt headsets out there only flash a light when turned on or off and this unfortunately doesn't work for me due to my visual impairment.
I was told the motorolla headsets work well with the universal but can't verify this.
Has anyone tried a Jabra jx10 with the htc universal?
I'm also after a small headset that clips on to your right or left hear and is easy to pair and setup.
also can anyone tell me if the headset supports the headset profile?
This option for some unknown reason doesn't appear after pairing up a headset with the universal even though the manual says it should.
I've been searching for months to find a headset that works well with the universal so any info or assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
I can recommend the logitech traveller. It is inexpensive, works well with the jasjar, makes a beep when turning on and a different one when turning off, has a good noise cancelling system.
I am however currently using the Nokia HS-12W, which is a stereo headset that hangs from your neck. It also makes a beep. I have to admit though, that at least for my ears the original earbuds did not work and I had a hard time understanding anything probably because the sound did not get into my inner ear. I "transplanted" the excellent Sennheiser CX300 earbuds and now I feel I have an outstanding headset that allows me to listen to music in an unexpected quality.
Hope this was helpful to you.
I purchased a Jabra BT8010 to use with my Cingular 8525/Hermes 100.
Anyways I wanted exceptional sound and a better form factor than the large Moto HT820.
I wasn't disappointed.
I love them. Now to be honest the headset only works with WM6 on the Hermes. Apparently the Bluetooth Stack for the Hermes WM5 sucks wind.
The BT8010 connects flawlessly no need to fight like with the Moto HT820.
The sound is EXCELLENT!
They aren't heavy and since they don't have the donut sized ear pads it is comortable to wear.
Customer service is the best. I lost an ear hook/ear loop I emailed and then called them on Monday and I had thee replacement ear hooks/ear loops by Thursday.
If you haven't tried them and you need a BT stereo headset please give them a try. I love it!
Does the Jabra have a mini usb charging connection or are they still using that proprietary charger connection BS?
Has anyone tried tried the new Motorola S9 BT stereo sports headset? It looks awesome.

They still use the proprietary one. I don't care though cuz the sound is AMAZING. I've had tons of moto headsets (including A2DP) but they always fail to deliver. The HT820 was way to big and uncomfortable to wear.
the motorola S9 is great. ive had jabra stuff and never been impressed. they are lightweight sounds great you can run with them on they don't fall off. I haven't tried the new jabra yet but from their website it seems like they fit like a regular mono headset and that just wouldn't work in the gym. I believe for what i do the S9s are better.
Donsaxena:
Thanks. I think I'll give the S9 a try.
Jabra BT8010 w/MS Voice Command
on my old Jabra BT800 I was able to press a button to initiate the MS Voice Command. Now that I've upgraded to the BT8010 I cant figure out how to do it. Any suggestions?
Jabra
I had the Moto headset for all of about 2 days before I returned it for the Jabra. The Moto was uncomfortable to me and not very flexable. The Jabra is much better and when you don't want the second earpiece you can just unplug it and put in the case.

you can still do that but first you have to push the button close to the mic pic up then the main button on the jog dial.
I'm kinda disappointed buying this because this headset wouldn't work perfectly on my Dopod 818Pro (Prophet).
The headset is excellent when talking to another party on the phone. The sound is loud and clear but when it comes to listening a music. It would distort and crackles after about 20 - 30 seconds and the sound would disappear. It's like it's losing its BT connection or something.
To solve this issue, I have to turn off the BT8010 and turn it on again and the sound would go for another 20 - 30 seconds
I have tried with WMP, Mortplayer, TCPMP and they are all the same. Mortplayer would last longer but still distorts and disappears.
I have done all the registry fix for A2DP for Prophet and none helps. I'm pretty happy with the headset but not for the use of listening to music.
So I keep the other half of the headset in my drawer.
Git it today from Fry's local store for $99, price is good until 6/26
Pros:
1 very good sound quality and volume (compared to Moto HT820) for calls and music play
2 Size and design
3 LCD display
Cons:
1 No rewind function for music
2 doesn't fit my ear very well, kinda loose and unconfortable

It's fixed, I'm so happy
For those who have BT8010. Don't use Jazz Equalizer because you'll find that you'll have the same problem I had.
I think this is a bug, can anyone else confirm?
I have no problem when using Normal / Rock but Jazz will create a distortion after 29 seconds (using WMP).
MAN this sucks, i got a jabra bt320s and it doesnt even present itself as an a2dp device to my hermes.....anybody know of anything similar??
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
Here

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 is the best bluetooth stereo headset?
That's sort of a tough question to answer... I doubt many of us have experience with a large enough variety of headsets to say what's "best." You're going to get a lot of personal opinion.
I have a Motorola H700 and have been very happy with it. With my phone on the charger in my office, I can be anywhere in my house and hear clear as day. The volume goes plenty loud, it charges quickly, and is quite small and comfortable. My callers usually can't tell I'm on a headset. The flip-out-to-answer feature is really nice as well.
DR-BT20NX by sony.
Are definitely not the best
The H700 is very popular. Unfortunately, it isn't stereo.
I'll be sure to stay away from the Sony DR-BT20NX.
Check out the Jabra BT8010. It is a bit big though.
go 4 snookey s9 motorola i think i used correct name
these r those neck band ones go 4 it

I have a Sony-Ericcson HBH-DS970 and really like it - very small in-ear buds with great sound, and remote control unit for music.
Still use my Jawbone mono for when I'm just making calls - but if I'm out for a walk and want to listen to music and be able to take calls, the HBH-DS970 works great.
