Just received my Sony Ericsson HBH-DS980 Stereo Bluetooth Headset. It's being charged up right now. I'll let everyone know hows the sound quality tonight.
Paid: 99.99 + 5.95 Shipping = 105.94
Edited: Here is what i have experienced with this unit.
Here are the Specs: http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/products/accessories/overview/hbh-ds980?cc=&lc=
Sound: Great Clarity and rich Bass( Sounds like your in a car thats equipped with Sound System)
Range: Since it is Bluetooth Version 2.0 , it has better range than any other bluetooth headset Version 1.2. ( My previous Stereo Bluetooth by LG HBS-110 was V1.2. While listening to music, it got cut off when i went into another room, and came back on when it was in line of sight.) On the Sony Ericsson, it was cutting off a little bit but not completely off, and can go farther than like the LG)
so far thats with the Music portion. Still have to play around with it more to see whats great about it.

I think Sony DR-BT Serie is better. Its more a Headset for Bluetooth MP3 Player. They have better DA-Converter inside. I use in the moment ... DR-BT50.

i've been using the Sony DR-BT10CX for the past few months and am very pleased with the sound quality i am receiving. i am having two major problems that i do not know how to fix:
1. every time i go to connect the headset to the phone, i have to go into the bluetooth settings, uncheck the boxes a) wireless stereo and b) headset, then save those changes. then i have to go back into the settings and re-check the boxes and save. - this is a nightmare of an issue, when the headset should simply connect automatically when turned on.
2. making calls is fine, but when a call is received it does not answer through the headset, but through the phone. pointless if you are driving for example...
if anyone knows how i can fix this, i'd love to hear a solution...
MBR-100 Sony/Ericson stereo receiver
I'm using the MBR-100 Sony/Ericson stereo receiver to stream music to me car stereo via 3.5mm input cable and to me earbuds when I am riding on my motorcycle. It connects quickly, sounds good and lasts about a week between charges. I only commute about an hour a day. I got it for $80 at Fry Electronics. I have seen a few of them ob ebay as well.
HT820 + Telus P3050 Touch
I have the Motorola HT820 on a Telus Touch P3050 Vogue and it is very good. I am pleased with my choice.
Sadly I must say stay away from the BlueAnt X5's...horrid sound quality. It seems that the sony's have good sound quality, at least as good as a wired buds that are included. The X5's are much worse. Less spatial seperation, more "muddy" sound, just not good.
Everything I've heard and read about the Jawbone BT headset says that it's a very high quality unit, with excellent noise reduction/cancellation properties. I'll be getting one when I save up some pennies. (10,000 pennies to go!)
i'm using the BlueAnt Z9 with the new 3.4 firmware update and, for me, it's loud and clear with the Vogue. i actually have to turn it down...i have not had any complaints from others when using the headset. when i purchased the Z9 it had the 3.0 firmware and the volume was very acceptable to me. also, the 3.0 firmware allowed you to control the volume with the phone. with the 3.4 firmware, all volume is controlled by the headset.
Jawbone
I have the black jawbone best bluetooth I have used thus far and I have tested quite a few. connects flawlesly and quickly as soon as you turn it on and the noise cancelation that the jawbone is famous for actualy works
I have an old wep150 (samsung) I got it for another phone about a year and a half ago. Its sounds worse on the vogue than it did on my motorola phones. I hope to get a nice stero headset for listening to music and calls. I'm glad to hear the sound quality is good for these devices.
BT
I use the Jabra BT 5020 works awesome on my sprint (cdma) touch. Long life too.. I have always like the jabra products. You can also pair it with multiple devices. it has vibrate.
Timdawg
Just got the SE HBH-DS970 and it works pretty well. the call display only shows the number not the name unfortunetly. And My music tracks don't seem to show up on the screen. Any one else experience this?
I just got the new MOTOPURE H12 the other day and really like it. I got rid of the Jabra BT8010 because I felt like I had to yell into it. This new H12 is pricey at $129.00 but worth it because I am in the car alot. This thing is very small and very light. It comes with a cool desktop charger and carrying case that you can use as a charger also. Here is a link http://direct.motorola.com/hellomoto/h12/
Good question, CCRRAR!
Has anybody got a bluetooth to work with Voice Command??! The closest I've gotten has been with the Blue Ant Z9, I manage a RadioShack, and we just started carrying that unit. It is small, lightweight, comfortable, and very good volume. Better than almost any Motorola bluetooth re: volume. The plantronics are good volume as well, but a bit bulkier. But the Blue Ant actually recognizes Voice Command! The problem, like most, is it doesn't recognize the confirmation.
Very Frustrating!
Anyone found a fix? I've tried some that profess to be the "true fix" but no luck.

I have a question regarding bluetooth.
I have an sony HBH-DS980 that works great for music playback on my tytn ii.
The problem i have with it is that when the music is playing and a receive a phone call it notifies me and i answer the call. After the call is over the bluetooth link seems to drop and will no reconnect untill i turn the headset off and on.
Is there a way to make the headset go back to music playing and not drop link automatically?

Not having experience of this unit this may be down to the individual headset and I hope some others will come in with experience of this.
Does the headset support both Headset and Wireless Stereo profile?
If it does not, the function may not be supported. I use a Promate PM-2600 and it supports both and when I have selected Wireless Stereo (this has to be done manually!) it works without problem when answering a call and passing back to music or video play.
Hope someone with information on this particular unit gets back to you.

Hi,
I own a Sony HBH-DS980 too, and experiencing the same problem Linxus40's having, but on my 8925 Tilt, of which is essentially the same phone as Linxus40's HTC Tynii .
It's very frustrating having to reboot the HBH-DS980 & re-press the play button to re-establish the bt connection after completion of every incoming call. It's s my understanding that the Sony HBH-DS980 supports both wireless headset & the wireless stereo profile, as I've got no problem placing & receiving unlimited bt calls without disconnection when I'm not listening to music. This said, I find the HBH-DS980's bt audio 'sound quality' fantastic thru the 8925 Tilt.
btw: I've got PocketMusic 5 and PocketPlayer 3.51 on my Tilt, but experience significantly better sound (audio quality) when my music is played via PocketMusic compared to PocketPlayer. Curious if any body else here notices this too.
Ok, any other Sony HBH-DS908 bluetooth headset owners experiencing the dropped bluetooth connection problem Linuxus40 and I are experiencing? Any advice on how the problem can be corrected?
Thanks in advance.

I'm facing the same issue as well! Tried numerous hard resets and fixes you would have thought imaginable! Unfortunately the problem is still existent and it is freaking irritating when you have to press the play button to repair the headset. Worst still - when the music starts playing through the speaker after a call, everyone starts to look at you like you are some moron.
I do really hope there is a way to resolve the problem. Any new fixes i can try???
Senior members? Any help?

I have this exact same problem on my Sony Ericsson HBH-DS220.
The bluetooth will disconnect after hanging up a phone call. I don't press anything on the headset, I wait for the other person to hang up. When it hangs up, it immediately disconnects the bluetooth headset.
Annoying!
Probably a problem with the bluetooth stack then. The stack is already known to be very buggy and have problems with lots of Bluetooth devices. Luckily, unlike the graphics card, it looks like HTC will be releasing a fixed Bluetooth stack at some point in the future. In the mean time, you are probably out of luck.
Bluetooth connection problem also with Tilt
I have a Plantronics 510 BT earpiece that for no discernible reason is connected one minute and gone the next too. I haven't been able to determine any combination of actions, such as ending a call as the culprit. I always have to make the connection manually between the earpiece and the Tilt also - it never links automatically when I turn the earpiece on like it did with my Treo 650. I've had this Tilt for 3 days and this is probably going to be a show stopper and make me return it to at&t before the eval period in spite of everything else good about the phone. I also have a Plantronics Pulsar 590 stereo headset that I haven't experimented enough with yet to know if the connection is as flaky. But the bottom line is - I'll be damned if I'm going to try to fiddle with establishing a connection and all the steps it can take while I'm driving down the road!

Hope This Helps
I just wanted to buy a stereo bluetooth handsfree for my device and finally I decided to buy an EverE T909s about 40 $...
it pairs correctly and fully to the device and music sound is good... but when there is an incoming call or when i call some one its microphone is so weak and people cant hear me!
I just paired the headset to another phone but it worked properly...
any solution?
I have the same problem. But in my case people can hear me when T909S is connected to the phone (Samsung), not very good, but they can.
What I'm concerned is when I connect this headset to my computer and try to use it for Skype, whatever settings I use the sound from Microphone is always very squeaking and it's impossible to use this headset as my headphones in Skype...
Any solutions?
Does anyone use streo bluetooth headset on Xperia x1i, whitch ones will fully work. Will this Slim A2DP Stereo Bluetooth Headphone Headset work.....

I bought exactly that headset for a few buck on e-bay. Works great with my X1i. I'm happy with it!

that's what I'm planing to do....so the buttons work correctly, what ROM are you using...
I'm currently using Shady's 23133 build. The buttons work correctly as to adjusting volume and changing song back and forward.
If the big Bluetooth button in the middle is double pushed I believe it makes a redial of your last call.
Have you bought it yet?

Nokia BH503
Hi!
I recently bought an X1, and got a Nokia BH-503 stereo BT headset. But got some problems, and dont know what to do with it, cuz this is the first WM phone i ever got.
Problem is:
Pairing the phone with the headset is smooth, and fine. But when i try to listen to music, the phone speaker starts the music, not the headset. I have to go to the Setting-Connection-Bluetooth, and refresh the device information. After that, i have to tick the headset option and save. Than everything goes well....till i try to stop the music, through the headsets dedicated buttons. I press the play/pause button and the the phone screen unlocks. Thats a problem, when its in my pocket...
I use the latest 826x ROM, manila 2.5.20161332.0, WM 6.5.3 build 23676.
Any idea how to solve that annoying problem?

Hi! As I mentioned some days ago, I have purchased a Sony Ericsson MW600 bluetooth headset, and after 2 days of use I have to say that this device works flashfully on Xperia X1: Sounds great and works fine; so if you are planning to buy one of these devices, the MW600 is a very good option!!
P.S. If you have some Q about this device, post here and I try to answer you.
Hello there!
This is my first thread, and I've looked for the answer everywhere...without any luck.
So, I have a Galaxy S, and a HBH-DS980 BT stereo headset.
Before I bought the headset, i was using the samsung headset. With a few apps, I managed the headset and the phone to do the following:
When the headset was plugged in, the phone went to silent, no notification sound whatsoever through the speaker. This way, when someone called, the speaker didnt ring; when someone called, the phone said to me the caller's name. And just the name, nothing else.
Now I can't seem to get it work with the BT headset.
Pls someone help me.
Thanks for reading.
