problem using bluetooth headset on desire

Hi all, I have a new Bluetooth headset h680 which I have paired with the desire, its connected and when on a call the person on the other end can hear me but I cannot hear them....anyone have a similar problem?

No, but only tested Plantronics 975. which works fine.

I Have a problem with the bluetooth as well. The connection and pairing are OK but there is no sound coming out of the headset.
I've google it and it seems there is a general problem with the bluetooth audio.

I also have a bluetooth problem.
I paires with my car kit (jvc kd-r711) and after a few seconds i get a error saying "headset disconnected"
I've read similair problems since the froyo update. Anyone else have the same problems?

@johnsten
Yes, I have the same problems with my Volkswagen Golf 6 navi!
At first, the phone connects just fine. No problems at all. Made several calls, phone book is synced automatically. All fine..
But then after some time it gets bugged. When I tart my car, and the systems sais.. phone connected. My desire sais "headset connected", and after some seconds it says "headset disconnected". The Bluetooth connection remains active, but the phone is not in "headset" mode.
The only thing that really seems to fix this problem is a full system swipe, but then I lose all by programs and Angry birds savegames
I really want to get rid of this problem. Any ideas?
Grtz, Ron

similar to jah, only tested the plantronics 975, never had issues

also working well with my Jabra Extreme so far

no problems with Nokia BH-503 and SE MW600

No problem with my SE MW600 either, for 340 SEK (36€) it has everything I need: volume, back, play-pause, forward and mic

No problem with either my JVC-901 car head unit or Sony Ericcson HBH-980 stereo headset

ford focus bluetooth headset issue
Hi there, I have a problem with the desire and Bluetooth with my Ford focus.
It pairs fine, but looses connection after about 45 seconds. If you check a task manager you see the Bluetooth process at very high CPU after the disconnect, for a number if minutes.
If you make a call before the Bluetooth drops out it remains connected for the duration of the call !
Tried disabling WiFi etc, makes no difference.
Any ideas?

I had just the exact problem no problems any more though after this fix I dont know if it was a bad rom flash that screwed something up for me but BT works great now

I have the same problem, bluetooth paired but can not hear anything. I tried over 10 different, but it does not help. Can anyone solve this problem?

I'm having a similar problem with my car stereo & HTC Desire bluetooth connection.
I have a Silvercrest stereo with blutooth which worked with my provious Nokia & Blackberry but cannot get it to work with my Desire (2.2 Froyo)
The 2 devices will pair but when I try to make a call or receive a call the devices disconnect.
I am not at all savvy about flashing ROM's or anything so as simple a resolution as possible please...(& no, changing my car radio is not an option )
Any info is greatly appreciated as I spend a lot of time in the car & need the hands free

I have a Pioneer 7100bt car radio and a Desire with Leedroid 2.2f and i does the same.
Does somebody know a solution??

I too have a H680 and like you, callers can hear me however, I can hear them but very quietly even with volume full up.
I also have a Jawbone 2 where I can hear callers but they cannot hear me very well.
The Jawbone 2 was fine with previous handsets.
No solution though, sorry.

Bluetooth problems sorted with Froyo ?

on the edge of updating to froyo at the moment but might wait a week or two for the little problems to get ironed out..
just wondered though if they have improved the Bluetooth on the phone ?
I have heard a few people having problems with the HTC implementation of it and have myself a device with pairs but does not connect
thanks

hi mitch,
bluetooth issues are still there after official htc 2.2 froyo update.
I have a Logitech diNovoMini keyboard that can pair but not connect to my desire.
htc broke the damn thing...

Bluetooth woes
I have just bought a Linx B-Tube. It should function as a bluetooth headset (only it has a speaker). I was hoping to pair it with my Desire which was running Cyanogenmod RC1. I couldn't get it to pair so I decided to make the leap to the nightly to see if it made any difference....nope!
I can see the device and I am prompted for a passcode for connecting. When I enter the code it just goes back to the original screen and doesn't pair.
I have also tried pairing to my MacBook pro with the same result..
Any solutions would be much appreciated

I have a Vodafone unbranded HTC Desire running Froyo, and I have a similar bluetooth problem. It really sucks. My Plantronic bluetooth headset can pair and connect with the phone without any problem. The connection is fine and will automatically be re-established if the headset is in range. However, occasionally, yes, occasionally, the headset will be detected and connected, but can NOT be used. I can see the icon that shows that the bluetooth headset is connected. However, clearly the phone voice output is for whatever reason NOT routed to the bluetooth headset, and hence I can't talk using the headset. I found that once I got this issue, the only way to solve it is to unpair and re-pair the bluetooth headset.
Very annoying. These days software quality control is very poor.

Hi my problem is different. both with Android 2.1 and 2.2 my bluetooth headset (Blueant Q1) works fine except when the Wifi Connects to a new hotspot. When this happens teh bluetooth headset discoinnects and then reconnects : (
Maybe I should be happy it works most of the time listening to previous posters !

Bluetooth Headset Mic issue fixed in Note N51xx BT 4.0 LE Implementation?

Just a basic simple question. I am sure most here are familiar with the issue of the mic in a BT headset not working post Gingerbread or at least since Android 4.x.
For those who don't know it's simple the onboard mic does not turn off allowing the mic in the headset to work. So while a stereo headset will give you sound if you want to dictate or use apps that need voice input your tablet has to be in front of you. It's a deflating problem because we buy these devices to enjoy, be more productive and more mobile. The blame seems to lay at the feet of Google (ya just need to slog through all the discussions about this as there are cases where it works perfectly, mostly, on phones but not at all on non-phone tablets.
Anyway, while I sit here trying to be patient and thanking my boss for buying an N5110 for me, I thought I'd ask some questions. My hope is perhaps something about the stack implementation for BT 4.0 LE was fixed to allow out headset mics to work on our tablets again.
My headsets are the LG BHS700 and BHS730. Super headsets BTW with loooong battery life. Around 10-14hrs continuous use on my tabs or phone.
For me the mic works fine with my LG Motion phone (snapdragon CPU, ICS 4.0.4, BT 3.0). Does not work on my Asus Transformer TF300T nor my Transformer Infinity TF700T. I am pretty sure the reports I've read on the Kindle Fires with BT is the mic doesn't work with them either, though that may have changed?
Sooo, anyone tested this out on your Note 8? Even worth asking those with the N5100 (GSM version yes?) or N5120(LTE version right) as there were comments of the mic only working with active phone calls and none of the other uses such as dictation or voice command.

I would bet your problem is that you are trying to use "listening" type stereo BT headsets, to perform "speaking" functions; those LG BT stereo headsets are ok for music, but suck when it comes to making phone calls, or audio dictation...They just dont have high quality/high performance microphones on them, since they are used primarily for listening to music..
I use a Bose BT2, and a BlueAnt BT headset with all my adroid devices, INCLUDING this one, without any voice or dictation issues.
You should get a mono, voice/phone call type BT headset, and I am certain you wont have any issues making phone calls, or dictating with this tablet...

thanks but you could not be more incorrect here. In fact the issue is not related to brand of headset. It is a well known and documented issue that came about post Gingerbread. And it seems mostly limited to NON-PHONE device though even some phones have issues it voice control and functioning of previously working voice related apps. That and the cessation of a previously working headset mic with the roll out of various versions of 4.x.x
So thanks but well, nope that does not address the question or issue. Though it's nice to know your headsets work on your N8. That is helpful.

My Galaxy S3 cannot be used with voice dictation, search, S-Voice, etc with the built in mic, especially when in the car (4.0 - 4.1). Using a Bluetooth headset it _actually_ works in both scenarios (quiet room, in car).
Although when combined with TeamSpeak it has a tendency to "Forget" it's hooked up to a headset and instead use the onboard mic and speakers. This normally occurs after a disconnect and reconnect to the TS server. But the new TS app isn't that much less of a piece of **** than the old TS app.
On previous 3.x and 4.x devices, I just did the old test: tap the onboard mic, tap the headset mic. The loud one is the input source.

Interesting new Slidey...make hopeful Samsung fixed whatever Google busted.
I did chuckle that your headset mic works and the on device dunna work. It made me jealous...
Oh, your testing method us that of Champions...meaning same thing I do. Heck it's all but impossible to muffle the on board mic they are so sensitive.
Can't wait to see if my headsets work...have to remain calm until Thursday. Seems I picked the wrong week to give up IV Xanax...

Bluetooth headphones with Android 7.1

Hi, guys!
Recently I decided to install Android 7 ROM but have a strange bug with my bluetooth headphones.
It's Bose QC 30. After pairing they with my phone I hear no sound, but if I turn off and then turn on bluetooth on the phone the headphones work correctly. If I turn off and then turn on my headphones and they will connect to my phone, I hear no sound again
If my phone connects to my headphones - all right.
If my headphones connect to my phone - no sound.
When I used Android M, my headphones worked fine.
I tried any ROM with Android N: CM, lineage, Cypher (AOSCP) and many others, each of it has this bug.
I tried to use another headphones (QCY QY12) and very old bluetooth speaker (LG Music Flow P7), they worked correctly.
I don't understand, where is this bug in android N or in Bose firmware.
Any suggestions to fix it? Thanks!
Can I use anything to debug my bluetooth connection and read logs of it?
HTC One M8 (HTC__A07)
S-OFF
Firmware: 6.12.401.4

I would say its from the headphones because are probably old model.I have strange problems with Bluetooth headphones and speakers after upgrading to android 7.My opinion is that they are not compatible with the new version of the android.

The headphones are a new model of September 2016 but they probably use a old bluetooth chip. Although I tried to use lg music flow p7 bluetooth speaker witch is too older than the headpones and it works fine.
It's a very strange issue.

Yes , strange indeed. Sadly I don't think there is fix for that

And I notice the simmilar issue with my laptop (macOS Sierra 10.12.2): at the first time when the headphones connect, they use SBC codec, if I reconnect they then they use AAC codec. May be Android 7 has a bug to work with SBC codec?

Bluetooth headset issue - no voice

Hi all,
Hope you can help me..
I've been having issues with BT headset(s) since my Honor 7x was upgraded to Oreo BND-L21 8.0.0.330(C432).
The behavior is the following..
I pair the BT headset with 7X and everything goes smoothly. When i check info section on the paired device i see that both, phone and media audio are enabled. If i play the music - everything is OK.
The issue starts when I trigger a call via 3rd party app like Whatsapp, Viber, Hangouts etc..
What happens is that the other person can hear me but I can hear them. It seems like the communication is going only one way.
If in the middle of the call i switch to phone microphone (inside app) - everything goes back to normal.
I tried with two different BT headsets and behavior is the same (both headsets work properly on another phone).One other thing to mention is that all these apps also work properly with a wired headset.
So far i tried to disable Volte, disable Wifi and perform calls via mobile network, wipe cache partition, clear data/cache for BT app, enable/disable google assistant, change permission, unpaired all devices.. But so far nothing worked...
The only thing that is left is to perform a hard reset but I would really leave this as a last resort.
Has anyone had this issue ?
Thanks!!

Having the same issue with my anker soundbuds flow headset.

Don´t bother with the hard reset, it won´t help.
In fact i´ve even replaced the phone, and on the new phone the story was the same: After the upgrade to 8.0, when a phonecall is made via App (Skype or Whatsapp) there is no sound in the BLuetooth headset, while microphone works perfectly. However is a normal phonecall is made, the headset works two ways.
The problem is reproducible on my several headsets (LG HBS-730 that uses BT 3.0 and Anker SoundBuds Life that use 4.1). The anker soundbuds flow, that were mentioned above, are also BT v4.1. Nevertheless, if i connect my Anker Soundcore 2 speaker (that uses BT v4.2) the two way communication works perfectly. Also it works on my EasyAcc speaker BT075 (BT v4.0) and Taotronics TT-BH12 headset (also BTv4.0).
So I´d assume that the update was tested only on 4.0 and 4.2 BT devices, but not on older or 4.1
So as for the solutions, i hope this problem will be addressed in the next update (hopefully soon) or consider trying the headset with BT 4.2 or later.
Update: It also does not work on speaker Aukey SK-M8 (which also reports to have BTv4.0) - strange. Maybe it is not really 4.0 or my theory with BT versions is wrong.

Thanks a lot for your feedback.
In the meantime i did some more testing with both bluetooth headsets and managed to get one working.
The headset i managed to "fix" is Plantronics voyager legend.
What i did was: downloaded "plantronics hub" app and in the settings I disabled "HD sound". By doing that everything started working correctly.
The only downside is the sound quality - it is so bad that I just decided to use a wired headset.
Hopefully this will be fixed in the next update :crying:

Those are Bluetooth v3.0 headset. Obviously the problem is with the applied profiles.
I think it would be nice to report this problem to Huawei/Honor. I really don't know whether they check this forum, more reports they get - more chances of a fix.

This morning I received an update to 331 - BND-L21 8.0.0.331 (C432).
I retested all of my BT headsets (including moving Plantronics back to "HD audio") and - everything works like a charm !!!
In the release doc it states that this update contains only a July 2018 google security patch but i guess they also fixed the BT issue.
Anyhow, I am happy again !
Cheers!
