[Q] Will Smartwatches work with another bluetooth pairing simultaneously ? - Moto 360

Hello!
I've bought a Moto 360 today and since then, I'm wondering if I'll be able to use simultaneously with my car audio.
Because I'm used to pair my phone with my car and let it play all the music, so, with the watch, I'm wondering if it will work together....
Does anyone know?
Thank you

Yes, I have been through several car radios, and it worked with all of them,
really nice too, I just tell my wrist to tell my phone to play music to my car.

Yup. I have my Jaybird wireless headphones paired at the same time. Great to control my audio from my wrist without having to pull my phone out of my pocket.

[Q] Looking for bluetooth headphones

Okay so, I used to own the Jabra Halo which was a great set of heaphones except it was over the head giving me the nastiest headphone hair you've ever seen. Well long story short I lost them and looking for new ones but with some specific features:
Behind the neck
Over the ear (not in!)
An option for wired connection
The Halo came with a cable that was 3.5 mm to microUSB so the headset could play audio that way. This was important as it eliminated the delay caused by bluetooth when watching videos.
Anyone have any ideas?

kinda looking for dual pairing bt headset for both my bt device, dont wanna touch the oily 4,3 big screen from my face
Any of the Motorola headsets are worth a go. They are durable and the pair with mutiple devices. I have my laptop and phone paired with the headphones most of the time with no glitch. I am considering a trial run with the recently available Jabra Sport Bluetooth headphones. Anything else just sucks, really.

Post your bluetooth accessories HERE

Hello,
I just wanted to start a thread about what types of bluetooth accessories Galaxy Note users such as myself use on a day to day basis. Bluetooth is an integral part of technology these days i just wanted to share what i have as of right now and what i plan to get in the future.
Currently, I have a Jawbone Era Silver Lining Bluetooth Headset and a Samsung HM5000 Bluetooth Pen Headset. I use my Jawbone Era whenever I'm driving, listening to music, and watching movies. I bought The HM5000 for those times when ear starts to feel sore from the Jawbone and the HM5000 just looks snazzy to use. (I'm currently trying to figure out a way to make a mold for a micro usb cap that can double as a capacitive stylus tip so i can use it as an actual pen, anybody knowledgeable in this pls let me know and thanks in advance)
I plan on purchasing the Sony Smartwatch and the Sony Wireless Headset Pro in the near future as soon as Sony gets off their butts and actually release the Wireless Headset Pro and not promise it will be released 30 days after CES.
Kindly share what ya'll got and what your opinions on the matter are for all those other bluetooth headsets out there.

I have a pair of Plantronics Backbeat 903+ headphones and love them. Great sound and great battery life.
Because they sit in your ear they can get a bit uncomfortable after a couple of hours.
The only thing I don't like is that there is a lot of latency with them (I didn't realise BT headphones would have so much latency when I got them) which makes playing music apps or games where your need your screen input to be in sync with what you hear not really viable. I use wired headphones in those situations.
I have a Buffalo BT mouse which is good.
I'm awaiting delivery of the Rii Mini keyboard. Should be any day now...
Sony Wireless Keypad
Sony Wireless Keypad also works.
1. Jaybird Freedom headphones. Closest thing to sweatproof I have been able to find for my workouts.
2. Motorola S-10HD. Nice sound and comfort but can't take the sweat like they claim
3. Samsung HS2000 earpiece. Cheap, reliable and comfortable but that Samsung specific app for speaking emails and such is crap.
4. Zephyr HxM Heart rate monitor. I run and bike and this lets me record my heart rate and strides with Endomondo or Sportstracket
5. OBDPros OBDII adapter. I can use the Torque app to monitor and communicate with my car ECU.
6. Microsoft comfort 5000 keyboard. Love my ergo bluetooth keyboard.
7. Microsoft bluetooth mouse 3000. It works, nothing special.
8. Apple magic mouse. Love it.
9. Various bluetooth to serial adapters for engineering nerd stuff.

Among the bluetooth accessories I have the one that I like the most is the nokia stereo headset http://reviews.cnet.com/headsets/nokia-bh-103-headset/4505-13831_7-33707311.html
Why I like it ?
- It connects automatically when ever i turn it on
-Turns off automatically after i turn the bluetooth in my phone off. This saves battery. Hence saving a lot of battery.
It lasts more than a week after a week of charging on a regular use.
Even if i dont use it for a few weeks it preserves battery well.
Have not seen such good performance in any other bluetooth device.
I'm using this bluetooth keyboard by Ednet and it's working great (including touchpad) with Gingerbread and ICS:
http://www.ednet-gmbh.de/?lang=en&page=1&cat=10,20,4&artnr=86270
I'm especially liking its medium size, as there are many "mini keyboards" out there that are *really* mini... ;-)
There's a German review at Tom's Hardware:
http://www.tomshardware.de/Ednet-Bluetooth-Touchpad-Keyboard,testberichte-240861.html
I connect mine all the time when I'm driving with my car's Blue & Me system, a collaboration between FIAT and Microsoft, based on the Windows Mobile for Automotive platform.
Voice call functions work great, but have not tried the SMS reader feature yet. This is a feature where the car will have the option to read incoming SMS out loud through the car's speakers. It works with a VERY limited number of phones.

Nokia J headset
Works effortlessly, holds a charge forever.
voice-guided set up and prompts ("Connected", "Call ended", etc.)
I have this clipped in my shirt pocket and take all calls on it. Activates, connects, and takes call in the time it takes to get it into my ear.

Wow! I was looking for a in-ear mono BT headset and somehow missed on the Nokia J.
Did some research on this headset. Looks very good. Thx for the tip!
skome, Are the aditional earbuds (the ones with hooks) also in-ear? Do you have any complains at all?
Does anybody know of a Bluetooth device where I can controll my music like the "s pebble"

The only bluetooth accessory I use on a daily basis is my MBW 150.
Love the thing. Bluetooth media controlling over AVRCP, vibrates on any notification I want it to, caller ID, shows who messaged and can read off the entire text if I want. AVRCP capability was the primary reason I got one, but I find it much much more useful than I initially thought I would.
I'll also add, hardly affects battery life on my Note. I never, ever turn bluetooth off.
The OLED screen is fading unfortunately, but the Pebble Watch is looking mighty promising so I'll be snatching one up as soon as it goes up for sale (missed getting a spot on Kickstarter).
7+ day battery life, e-Paper display, vibrates for notifications, media controls, and is totally customizable.
Looking right forward to it.

Right now you can get a MBW 150/200. Supports only that profile for media playback, so you have a media controller on your wrist.

No complaints. If I had to come up with one, it's that the buds are a little different from all the extras I have lying around. My spares tend to be a bit too loose.
I didn't get any buds with hooks, huh. I haven't needed them and I cycle to work, walk around a lot, etc. It's light and stays in my ear.

I use use and love the Nokia BH 214. It's a clip, controls music like the pebble. It has a mic on it so if a call comes in the music is paused and you can answer and talk normally.
I have some moderate-sized headphones it handles well. It's rechargeable and holds charges for days.
Availability? Nokia is not long for the world....
I promise no more Nokia ads!

Suggestions for a BT enabled Car Deck

Alright, just got a new used car.
For my current phone (Captivate) and any future phones/tablets I buy (Nexus/7) I just wanted to know which decks that anyone out there has been using that works well for calls and playing music.. My BT Motorola T305 speakerphone is a bit spotty and would like to just integrate everything into the deck.
For reference, the devices will be plugged in while in the car, so power consumption is not an issue. Thanks all.

I have the alpine 136bt and it works great with my phone.
Whoops sorry I haven't responded to this. I'll definitely look into it thanks.

Jabras are usually the best for cars..try them out..
Dension Car Dock(nice design, power usb and audio line or FM) or bluetooth kit for stock radio.
I have only used Kenwood and Alpine decks.
The Kenwood has better noise cancelling external mic for calls. Problem with Kenwoods was the bluetooth features weren't the same across decks, as price went up you got more bluetooth profiles(say like A2DP). i.e low end deck has bluetooth for calls only, higher end had you could call and stream music with car stereo as output speaker without having to hook in a cable.
The Alpine was more of the same, didn't like the external mic as much. For Apple products which you don't have it had integrated Pandora to control the app from the stereo. My next purchase may revolve around how it handles the phone address book.

Help: ISO Bluetooth Remote For Android Phone

Hey guys, mods I'm sorry if this is the wrong section.
I currently use touchless controls paired with commander app and Tasker to skip tracks on my android phone. It works most of the time but not always. I just say "ok Google now, skip track" and presto chango pandora or Amazon will skip to the next song.
I always have my phone paired to a bluetooth speaker in a cabinet in my bathroom. Without placing my phone in a waterproof bag I'd like to take it another direction. I want a bluetooth remote, maybe bluetooth 4.0. Ideally waterproof. But I would have no issue if it wasn't waterproof. I would feel more comfortable having that in the shower or tub than my phone.
Plus I'd have the ability to pause, adjust volume etc.
So. Anybody out there have or know of a solution?
Also if anyone has any other ideas, maybe a waterproof speaker that has media controls on it, I would be open to that idea. I'd just prefer not to have something that constantly needs moved and plugged in.
Thanks!
Edit :
Motorola has this on sale for $9.99
http://www.motorola.com/us/accessor...ndroid/rz100-bluetooth-remote-retail-kit.html
I have read that it is compatible with kit kat. I could just use an app that let's volume keys be reprogrammed to skip the song. Then if I got a call I could use this as an auxiliary handset I guess? Just put it in a waterproof bag?
I've been looking for something similar to use on my motorcycle while riding. I have the bluetooth receiver, but no way to control the device while riding. Touchscreens don't work through gloves, nor do I want to mount the phone in a visible place and have to play with it (not that you can see the screen in the sun anyway).
I ran into the following Amazon products that appear to work, but none seem to be waterproof or resistant. However, you could just put them into a Ziploc bag and use them that way:
http://smile.amazon.com/Scosche-controlFREQ-Bluetooth-Wireless-Control/dp/B00DL4CH2G
http://smile.amazon.com/Square-Jellyfish-Bluetooth-Samsung-Android/dp/B00K6ZTDNO
http://smile.amazon.com/iSimple-Portable-Wireless-Smartphones-Bluetooth/dp/B00KPZN5UC
If you (or anyone else) run into other similar suggestions, I'd love to hear about them.
Sad thing is, I already have an iPod setup with a Scosche branded wireless controller that works well. It has a water-resistant wristband and a dongle that plugs into the ipod dock connector to control it. This works great, but iPods don't have Spotify, hence why I'm looking for a new solution. And I'm concerned when the iPod dies, I'll have no solution at all.
Also, there are many bluetooth "shower" speakers available as well, which are waterproof and have built in speakers. I can't use such a device on the motorcycle, as a speaker won't pipe sound into my helmet (and I already have a system for that)... but you mentioned you would consider this, hence I suggested it...

Wireless music earphones that can connect to two devices easily

Need help here.
I am trying to find a Bluetooth music headset that I can use together with my tablet and phone at the same time. I listen to music on my phone, but watch movies on my tablet, and will like to switch between them with as little effort as possible. This is further complicated by the fact that I actually have a android smartwatch as well, so turning off Bluetooth on my smart phone seems like a wrong step.
Have tried searching for multipoint devices but it seems to be all mono types.
Asking store assistants have also not been helpful as most of them has not even heard of this function at all.
I am not a audiophile so just reasonably well sounding buds will do quite well already.
